Hi There,

Can any of you give me some tips on running RMAN
via SYSOPER rather than SYSDBA?

Currently, when I run RMAN, I use an RMAN command line similar to this:

rman TARGET / CMDFILE crosscheck10.rcv LOG crosscheck10.txt

I don't see that it specifies SYSOPER or SYSDBA.

How do I write an RMAN command line which connects as SYSOPER?

DreamzZ,

This does prove anything.
If you are in osdba group you can use rman with any connection string, it is ignored.

ADBU11> select username from dba_users where username='T';

no rows selected

ADBU11> !rman target t/yyy

RMAN>

RMAN requires SYSDBA privilege, it can't be used with SYSOPER.

Database Backup and Recovery Basics
Chapter 3 Setting Up and Configuring Backup and Recovery
Section 3.3 Connecting the RMAN Client to Databases

Quote:

When connecting to a target or auxiliary database, you must have the SYSDBA privilege.
