How to register target db with recovery catalog

David JamesApr 3 2019 — edited Apr 3 2019

Hi Gurus

I am installing rman, but first I am trying to create recovery catalog and get the target db registered. I am struggling.

So, here is what I have done so far:

Created a dedicated database for the recovery catalog

Created the rmancat user

Created catalog:

rman target / catalog rmancat/rmancat

RMAN>create catalog

So far so good.

Now I need to register the database (called FDBORAD1, or maybe fdborad1) with the catalog

I am stuck on this, the instructions say “set your Oracle environment then use the rman client to sign into the database and recovery catalog at the same time” . I am quite confused as to the correct syntax for this.

I understand that I would need to register the target db with the catalog, but do I also need to register the db within which resides the catalog?

I am using the book  Oracle Database 12c Oracle RMAN Backup and Recovery by Oracle Press and its not helping.

Any ideas much appreciated thank you.
