Hi,
My Oracle 10g rel 2 RMAN seems to display the date format as 'DD-MON-YY' and I want it to display the date as 'MON DD, YYYY HH24:MI:SS' by setting 2 env variables before invoke RMAN from DOS. For example:
C:\DOS> set NLS_LANG=american
C:\DOS> set NLS_DATE_FORMAT='MON DD, YYYY HH24:MI:SS'
C:\DOS> rman target sys/sys@orcl10r2

But RMAN still display the date format as 'DD-MON-YY'. Did I miss something?
Cool

Set it without the single quotes:

C:\>set NLS_DATE_FORMAT=MON DD, YYYY HH24:MI:SS

C:\>echo %nls_date_format%
MON DD, YYYY HH24:MI:SS
