Hi Paula,
You can certainly use the (8i/9i?) database on your Solaris server to 
house a 10G RMAN catalog, the database version used to house the catalog 
is largely irrelevant. What IS relevant is that you have a version of RMAN 
catalog that is compatible with the RMAN binary you are using on the 
target database (which usually means the CATALOG must be at least the same 
version as the executable).

Whether you can use the same catalog to house 8i/9i/10g databases I am not 
sure, you'll have to check compatability for that but I have combined 
8i/9i databases in a 9i catalog with no problem.

Regards

Graeme

rman centralized backup server






Guys,

In order to manage and provide easier d/r for the oracle infrastructure =
I have setup a centralized rman catalog and for redundancy another copy =
of the same.  Here is my concern:

We are going to be installing a new instance of 10G on Linux.  I =
currently have my centralized RMAN running on Solaris - could I backup =
the 10G databases on Linux with RMAN on Solaris - would I need to have =
10G RMAN on Solaris to make that happen?

Thanks,
Paula
