Often the archive log destination is not really meant to be able to
hold a week worth of logs.

How can we redirect media restore to some temporary mount?

Alternatively, if I am just recovering a couple of blocks.. why can't
it read from NFS (where backups are) and not have to physically copy
all these data for a few 8K blocks (could certainly keep that in
memory as it goes through rman bakup sets)

Version? ASM? OS? Catalog?

You can do amazing things with links.

O10 has copy and catalog commands.

If you are on O9 and want to extract archive logs without RMAN, google
for the secret metalink Note 60545.1. It shows some of the PL
procedures that manipulate these things.

Apologies if I didn't quite understand the question. Don't know about
the second second question.

9i or 10g no ASM (well, we do have one RAC, but question is more
general)
always using a remote RMAN Catalog Repository.
The question was how I can 'stage' files as RMAN performs media
recovery somewhere other than my archive destination
I'll checkout the note, thnx.
