We have a database server running oracle 12G on linux which is the production then we have a DR using the same version of DB and linux, I want to restore from tape into the DR from the production backup. the UNIX admin has restored already from tape the rman backup, i would like to know what are the steps to restore the backup from tape, also the DR database server was created identical like production using the same spfile etc

were do i copy restored file into on the DR server?
also then in RMAN do i just start the DR database and run the command restore database? what else do i need?
thank you

No offense intended.
If this is a true DR site, there should be a proven, documented procedure sitting somewhere.

All the required information are available here in documentation.

Hello. I'm going to assume that "12g" is a typo for "11g".
You have to explain what you are trying to achieve. Usually, A "DR" site would mean setting up Data Guard (or standby database, if you do not have Enterprise Edition licences) but it sounds more as though you are trying to do what is called a database duplication. What is the ultimate requirement?

12g does not and will not exist, so it is NOT a 12g.
