save backups using rman

[Yarka]

Hi, we use rman to do backups and restores. When we do backups, it are save on server where are databases. We need save some backups on a
diferent server. We use Oracle 9.2.
Can anybody help us? Txs

Easiest solution would be to copy (scp, sftp, ftp) the backups over to the other server.

Yes, but we haven't enough space on some servers, and for this reason we can't launch backups.

Then you can re-direct the backup to another server by configuring the channel(s) and/or mounting the other server's disk unto the source server.

How can we re-direct the backup to another server by configuring the channel?
For example, we do:
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/oracle/rmanBackups/ora_df%t_s%s_s%p';
We work on Unix.
Txs, again.

1) Mount the other server's disk unto the source server.
2) Configure channel to point to backup mount point.
