RMAN-10031: ORA-19624 occurred during call to DBMS_BACKUP_RESTORE.DEVICEALLOCATE
What should I do to be able to backup on tape?
You are getting these errors because the tape device, SBT_TAPE is not
known to the system. You'll have to work with your system administrator
to get a tape device known in the system and known by a specific name.
Once that is accomplished, all you need to do is specify that name and
it will work. Until that device is called by the name it is registered
with the system, it won't work. Oracle does include Legato software on
the distribution media which facilitates this. You'll have to install
this software and configure it.
