I think everybody is correct. Lots of ways to skin the cat.

I am not certain as to the exact name of the env variable, however an alternative that works well is  

Run {

Sql 'alter session set nls_date_formate '''dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss'''';

...

}

There is no need to use the to_date() function as the date-format has been exported.

I doubt it will work correctly.

If I am not wrong, you should use "to_date('17-10-2008 00:00:00', 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:MI:SS')"     On Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 3:30 PM, Bort, Guillermo <guillermo.bort_at_eds.com> wrote:

Something like

Export NLS_DATE='dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss'
Rman target /
Run {
Set until time '17-10-2008 00:00:00';
Restore database;
Recover database;
Alter database open resetlogs;
}

*Should* work

Hi,

you can give RMAN a regular date/time point-in-time for recovery, or a SCN, or a log sequence number, just look up the RMAN documentation.

Example:
RMAN> recover database until time 'sysdate -3';
