the database is NOT the center of the Universe.

the backups reside in OS space if they have any persistence; which has OS timestamp

Just set your NLS_DATE_FORMAT environment variable as you want BEFORE starting RMAN.

1/ If you want to check an environment variable do NOT use "echo" but "env"
2/ NLS_DATE_FORMAT must be in UPPER case.
