Problem setting up Recovery Catalog in Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control

One of my customers discovered a problem on a freshly installed 10.2.0.3 database and 10.2.0.3 Grid Control. After some metalink searching, I found that it was a bug. Seems to be related to both 10.2.0.2 and 10.2.0.3. The error message is as follows:

"RMAN-06035: wrong version of recover.bsq, expecting 10.2.0.0, found 10.2.0.3"

There is an easy workaround:

Edit the recovery.bsq file in the AGENT_HOME (ORACLE_HOME for the OEM Agent). Modify the line:

library '10.2.0.3'

with

library '10.2.0.0'

References Bug ID: 5648668

Interesting fact, I never encountered this issue with the 10.2.0.4 agent, but did on the 10.2.0.5 agent. I had to bump library down from 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.0 and bounce the agent to get RMAN backups from Grid Control to work.

Thanks.
