Hi,

I want to use rman (first time). Is there a short description available what I need to do to make a backup with rman?

I've just tried a
--- cut ---

RMAN> run {backup database;}

RMAN-03022: Befehl wird kompiliert: backup
RMAN-03026: Fehlerbehebung bei Freigabe von Kanalressourcen
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure during compilation of command
RMAN-03013: command type: backup
RMAN-06172: not connected to recovery catalog database

--- cut ---

How can I create a recovery catalog database? Is it created automatically? How can I connect to it?

ciao
Detlef
