How to make tag name unique everytime you run backup script [message #328265]

I wrote a script and wants tag name for backup unique everytime you run the script

RUN
{
BACKUP
TAG 'CNTL_BKUP_${date_parm}'
CURRENT CONTROLFILE;
}

variable date_parm will be coming from unix script. But it doesn't work, date_parm will never be substituted as it is in the run block rman.

Is there any way we can make it work

Can you be more specific? I didn't get exactly what do you mean?

To add,
>>wants tag name for backup unique everytime you run the script
That is not for what tags are originally meant for.

Use of "here document".
Look into EOF used in Ana's example.

I am sorry to see that GOOGLE is broken for you.

Please be patient while repairs are underway.

Some folks are clue resistant; while others are clue repellent.
