You can run RCV files with RMAN. Enter the following command from the command line:

rman cmdfile BACKUP.RCV

Best regards.

"cmdfile" is a command line option, not an RMAN command!

RMAN cannot open file "backup.rcv". Specify the full path to backup.rcv or "cd" into the directory where your script is!

From start menu select run and write cmd
then command prompt will appear. Now change your directory by using cd command (if it is in D drive write

D:

then cd )and go to your desired directory where .rcv file resides.
Now write

rman cmdfile <filename>

(omit < and > while writing in command line).

Thank god ! It runs now....

Sorry for the above request...

The problem with file extension it saved as "rman1.rcv.text" instead of "rman1.rcv"... so the file is not opened. later then i found that and renamed the extension.

now its working...
