ancient memory here, but I *think* its RMAN not liking the "\" character - the command shell certainly does understand that variable

Z:\>set BACKUP_LOCATION=H:\BACKUPS

Z:\>ECHO %BACKUP_LOCATION%
H:\BACKUPS if I'm right just swap the \ for unix style / characters - windows will be happy with that as well :)

Z:\>set BACKUP_LOCATION=Z:/BACKUPS

Z:\>ECHO %BACKUP_LOCATION%
Z:/BACKUPS Z:\>CD %BACKUP_LOCATION% Z:\backups>
