Tim my both the database are 8i but different release 1)Target 8.1.5 on Solaris 8 2)Catalog db 8.1.6 on Win2k will different O/S and different version be a problem Pawan -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, August 19, 2002 11:58 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L The RMAN executables and scripts have to reside in a server running Oracle8.x and above (i.e. the "target" database server), but the database housing the recovery catalog database is just a database that holds tables, indexes, sequences, views, and stored procedures/functions/packages. RMAN doesn't run on Oracle7, but it doesn't need to.
