Hi,

I am running a very basic 9.2 Oracle database for a client with a very low budget (i.e. can't really afford two instances of Oracle)

Every night I am taking an RMAN backup using the following script (I also takes an export):

run {
shutdown abort;
startup pfile=e:oracleadmindibspfileinitdibs.ora;
shutdown immediate;
startup mount pfile=e:oracleadmindibspfileinitdibs.ora;
allocate channel dev1 type disk;
backup full tag = 'full backup' database include current controlfile format = 'e:Backupdb_t%t_s%s_p%p';
release channel dev1;
shutdown
startup pfile=e:oracleadmindibspfileinitdibs.ora;
}

The backup works fine, however, I am now attempting to restore the database to a different host with a different file structure (the e: drive on the production database is now the c: drive).

Before I embark on a day of painful discovery, can anyone answer these two questions (scripts optional extra :-):

Has anyone ever done this using nocatalog?

Is this possible?

Cheers,

Clem.
