Hi all,

Thanks in first for your valuable responses. When I try to run the below script, I am getting the following error,

connect catalog ****
connect target ****
connect auxiliary /
run {
allocate auxiliary channel ch1 type disk; set until time "to_date('Oct 12 2008 09:00:00','Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS')"; recover clone database until time "to_date('OCT 17 2008 16:00:00','Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";
duplicate target database to <TEST_DB_NAME>; }

allocated channel: ch1
channel ch1: sid=500 devtype=DISK

Starting recover at 27-10-2008 06:09:15
released channel: ch1

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 10/27/2008 06:09:16 RMAN-06555: datafile 1 must be restored from backup created before 17-10-2008 16:00:00

Recovery Manager complete.
 Please correct if I am wrong, I am new to RMAN and needs your input if anything is wrong. For your information, i could restore and recover the database only for 12th as I have LEVEL 0 12th backup directory. Is it correct that unless we have incremental LEVEL 1 backup associated to 12 Level 0 backup, the above command wont work?

Thanks,
Ann
