Hello,

I'm running Oracle 10g on Red Hat Enterprise 3.

My RMAN can register database instances which are sitting on the same box as the recovery manager, but it is experencing difficulties when the target database exisits on a differrent server.

I am using tnsnames.ora for naming purposes, RMAN is the name for recovery manager and TARPON_DMS is the name for target database. The target database can be reached using sqlplus, but rman is showing that the target database status as "not started".

Thanks for your help!

I'm attaching the trace output below.

[oracle_at_maple oracle]$ sqlplus admin_at_tarpon_dms
