Paul,
My experiences are all good, but I have no experience of moving for another 3rd party tool.
Once you get the environment set-up, using rman to backup , create duplicates and standbys is easy. There is a learning curve with the syntax, but it is that way with any new tool and the 9i version is actually more succinct than the 8i version.

Regards

Pete

Subject: Switching to RMAN

We are considering switching from SQL-Backtrack to RMAN. Has anyone else switched from SQL-Backtrack or other backup software? If so what were your reasons for making the switch? What problems did you experience as part of the switch?
Based on your experience, would you recommend switching to RMAN. Thanks for any insights that could help us,
