Joni, It looks like you are releasing the channels before you are finished with them.
Can you add another ALLOCATE CHANNEL command before you attempt the RESTORE command? You did not provide the rman commands, so I am only guessing here - but that is what the error is telling you. You do not have any channel's available for Rman to use. Good Luck.

I seem to be doing everything according to manuals and metalink notes but am not able to do the restore. The case is I am restoring a database to another node. I have successfully restore the control file but when I tried to restore the database I get RMAN-06100: no channel to restore a backup or copy of datafile 1 for every datafile. I am inserting the RMAN trace . I would appreciate if someone can lead in the right direction. Recovery Manager: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production Copyright (c) 1995, 2002, Oracle Corporation.
