quoting docs

A proxy copy is a special type of backup in which RMAN turns over control of the data transfer to a media manager that supports this feature. The PROXY option of the BACKUP command specifies that a backup should be a proxy copy.

Use the RMAN COPY command to create an image copy to disk. You cannot use COPY to make a copy to a device other than DISK. If you run a RESTORE command, then by default RMAN restores the image copy of a datafile or control file to its original location.
