Without a repository, you can't do incremental backups. You lose a lot of the functionality of rman. Have a look at the 8.1.7 Backup and Recovery Guide. It should give you some insights that you can pass on to the powers that be. Being a quasi-state agency they should be glad because rman

I built the RMAN database on the Net Backup master server. It gets backed up cold. Yes, I realize I just admitted to a cold backup. I don't want RMAN backing itself up, and don't want any RMAN activity taking place during a backup. Why not? Or rather, why? And why can't RMAN do the
