Perhaps you created one by cloning it from the other one. This can
change the SID, but won't change the DB_ID. RMAN can't deal with multiple
instances with the same DB_ID. The simplest way around this is to create a
separate RMAN catalog for one of them (just create a separate username).
Actually, I'm becoming convinced that maybe the way to go is to create a
separate catalog for each production database. This gives you more
flexibility, and I haven't seem any disadvantages to this.

I'm just starting to set up RMAN (8.1.7+) . . .
I'm registering all of my databases one by one from the command line.
I have two db's on the same solaris box and when I run the rman command they
both show up with the same DB_ID, thus preventing me from registering both
of them . . . I get an error when registering the second that it's already
registered.
they are distinct db's . . .
I tried unregistering one and then retrying, and again I get the same DBID
for both.
any ideas?
thanks, y'all
