I would question the integrity of an RMAN catalog that
had to undergo PITR.

Well, it could if I just used the control file. If the RMAN
database is shutdown, I don't have a repository. The RMAN
database is on the NetBackup master server. I just have
the database stopped and back up the directories that the
database is in.

I don't know, that's what Oracle is saying. Haven't investigated
it myself.

Why not? Or rather, why?
And why can't RMAN do the "cold" backup?

I've not worked with OID; why can't it be backed up "hot"?
