Lisa - I am new to RMAN (just had the Oracle class), so bear with me, and
I'll take a shot. I don't quite understand your question. In the class
workbook, the following example appears:
RMAN> create script level0backup {
2> allocate channel d1 type disk;
3> backup incremental level 0
4> format '/u01/db01/backup/df%s_%
5> filesperset 5
6> (database include current controlfile);
7> release channel d1; }
If I understand your question, the answer is that the directory is specified
in a separate statement from the allocate channel statement. I hope this
helps or maybe will clarify your question so someone more experienced in
RMAN can answer your question.

This info isn't forthcoming on metalink or in the doco as far as I can tell.
Can anyone tell me how to change the directory associated with the rman
command 'allocate channel disk'? Or at least figure out where it is, rather
than hunt and peck?
Is it fixed? Boy that would really bite.
Thanks
