Rob,
We do not use RMAN at the moment, but we may consider it in the near
future.
Thanks.

New Rman features in 9i make it even nicer...
Recover specific blocks, while the database and the datafile is still
available.
Also Rman is FREE, unlike some of the other backup/recovery tools out
there... :-)

Rman is backwards compatible, but to be honest I have not tried the new
features on 8i databases, so I can't tell you for sure that they work
in that way. My guess is that they probably do, but don't hold me to that.

Can one use 9i RMAN to backup lower version databases (8.0.x, 8.1.x)?
What new functionality will be supported in doing so?

restartable backups and restores.
backing up database and archivelog files in one operation
run command isn't needed in most places anymore...
I do know that one major software supplier of backup and recovery tools is
reworking
