Writing to /dev/null will produce an error because there is no backup file. Sounds illogical to a degree because that's the purpose of /dev/null. Also if you want to see how big the compressed backup will be you really do need a file to look at. Rman will tell you how many bytes it backed up, not the resulting file size.
