Hi,
on 10g R2 ,I try to use the RMAN backup files from another data base for my database :
target database Password:
connected to target database: ORCL2 (DBID=728416591)
connected to recovery catalog database
RMAN> catalog start with 'E:\oracle\backup\orcl2';
searching for all files that match the pattern E:\oracle\backup\orcl2
List of Files Unknown to the Database
=====================================
File Name: E:\ORACLE\BACKUP\orcl2\AL_ORCL2_20110404_3_1
File Name: E:\ORACLE\BACKUP\orcl2\CTL_ORCL2_20110404_4_1
File Name: E:\ORACLE\BACKUP\orcl2\DF_ORCL2_20110404_1_1
File Name: E:\ORACLE\BACKUP\orcl2\DF_ORCL2_20110404_2_1

Is there any solution for this error ? Can we define DBID for our database ?
Thank you.
