Hi! I have an Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 on a Linux machine, now I want to take backups using RMAN on another machine that has an Windows XP OS. the problem is when i try to connect from the second machine using RMAN it gives me "insufficient privileges error" but if i try to connect via sqlplus (from the second machine also, the one with Windows OS) it works. I try to connect using system user. Can anyone give me a hint or a link ..... Embarassed ?

Thanks

RMAN can only backup to local disk or, if a media manager is installed, it can only communicate to a local backup client.

PS: You can always mount your Windows drives on the Linux system and do a local backup to it.

Create catalog on your window server and register that database with it.

DreamzZ, you are joking. Right?

Only metadata gets stored in the catalog DB - not the data that's backed-up!

Thanks again for correction.

I dont know about windows.But
if we have two linux server than we can take backup from one server to other by mounting that server here with these specification.

mount -t nfs -orw,bg,intr,hard,timeo=600,wsize=32768,rsize=32768,nfsvers=3,proto=tcp10.13.1.126:/oradata/exports /media/nfsbackup/

And, if you install SAMBA, you can as easily mount a Windows drive on the Linux system. For example:

$ smbmount //winbox/c /mnt/win
