Hi Experts,

We have two databases dev and prod in one server. I would like to connect to target database prod without a recovery catalog.

Issued the below command and getting the following error message. Please suggest. Thank you in advance.

rman target sys/sys_password nocatalog.

Error we are getting is :

Recovery Manager: Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production on Fri Nov 18 11:31:59 2011

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00554: initialization of internal recovery manager package failed
RMAN-04005: error from target database:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

I have also created the password files for both the databases and tried but facing the same issues.

1/ You are not in the dba group
2/ Password file is only use on a network connection (that is using @...)

1/ This is useless. Normally there is no "rman" account in the database
2/

ORA-01994: GRANT failed: password file missing or disabled
 *Cause:  The operation failed either because the INIT.ORA parameter
          REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE was set to NONE or else because the
          password file was missing.
 *Action: Create the password file using the orapwd tool and set the
          INIT.ORA parameter REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to EXCLUSIVE.
