I encounter the following problem when I try to backup the datafile to a tape drive which can be seen on NTBackup.

Can anyone please help to solve this?

Recovery Manager: Release 8.1.5.0.0 - Production

RMAN-06005: connected to target database: BKUP (DBID=1619370747) RMAN-06009: using target database controlfile instead of recovery catalog

RMAN> run {

2> allocate channel tape001 type 'SBT_TAPE'  format 'b_%u_%s_%p';
3> sql 'alter system switch logfile';
4> backup
5>    ( datafile 'D:\ORANT\ORADATA\BKUP\BKDAT01.DBF'
6>   include current controlfile );
7> backup  ( archivelog all  setsize 204800 );
8> }
