Re: RMAN Windows question

DBCA has an option to create a database or save the creation scripts (example utility calls).
The oradim utility needs an init.ora file to create a Windows service for an instance.
An active listener is needed for connectivity. If the init.ora file has remote_login_passwordfile
set to SHARED or EXCLUSIVE, the orapwd utility can be used to create a password file.

Have Fun :)
