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. EBU is completely out of
the picture (as it should be!)...
