With regards to BACKUP Archive log using RMAN, I am using VERSION 8i

Dear friends,

Thanks for your useful information. But I would like to inform that I am using Oracle 8i. That's why this command don't run on 8i: backup achivelog all skip inaccessible;

Can you give an alternate solution/an automated routine that skip all unavailable archive file during backup via RMAN.

With Regards

Amit
