I'm currently using a bpduplicate script to create my offsite
duplicates.  The DBA's I work with are convinced that a DR recovery of
our databases won't work because RMAN stores the media ID of the tapes.

  Does anyone have a doc/pdf/faq I can printout that explains the
scenario one way or another and exactly what if anything would be needed
to recover an RMAN backup of an oracle database from duplicate tapes?  I
kinda like having weekly offsites....
