How to change the backup and archive destination to a network drive in oracle 11g windows Due to space issue I want to change the backup and archive destination from FRA to a network drive in my system (I'm using windows). I've done the following steps to change the destination:

RMAN&gt; CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO '\\192.168.20.200\HOME\DEVELOPMENT\JOE';

RMAN&gt; configure channel device type sbt parms 

sbt_library='//192.168.20.200/Home/Development/Joe/';


Now, when I'm trying to BACKUP DATABASE I'm getting the following error:


  ORA-19554: error allocating device, device type: SBT_TAPE, device name:
  ORA-27211: Failed to load Media Management Library
Network drives are managed by system as a drive, then for rman, it should be a disk device :

CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '\192.168.20.200\HOME\DEVELOPMENT\JOE';

CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;

I have never tested something like that, but I think it should work.
