Ummm, that's very odd. I've talked with my Oracle admin and we're not
sure what it is you're trying to do here. Could you elaborate?
Also, the way we back up our Oracle system is to dump it to a scratch disk
area and then let Amanda back that up. And yes, we've done restores :-).
And they even worked :-).
The scripts we use are at:
ftp://gandalf.cc.purdue.edu/dbbackup.*

If this really ends up being the way you need to do this, I have some
hacks that I think would work. But let's make sure you're headed down
the right path first.
