RMAN backup directory structure

user522620Mar 11 2013 — edited Mar 12 2013
Hi

All db's mentioned here are 11gr2 on win2008.

I have been backing up all 11g DB's using RMAN to the Flash_Recovery_Area (FRA). In this case, RMAN creates a nice and need directory structure such as:
FRA\DBNAME\AUTOBACKUP
FRA\DBNAME\BACKUPSET
FRA\DBNAME\DATAFILE
FRA\DBNAME\ARCHLOG

I recently relocated the FRA on each of our DB's so that the FRA now points to a CIF share on an EMC SAN. Now, it appears that RMAN is just throwing those files anywhere on the file structure.

Is there any way to force RMAN to write to the same directory structure as it did when the FRA was on a shared disk on the SAN?

Thanks for any assistance you can offer.
