RMAN accepts trace and debug parameters for ALLOCATE/CONFIGURE CHANNEL.

eg.  ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch00 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' debug=5 trace 2;

There are different levels of debug and trace.

I can't seem to find any documentation explaining the different levels of debug or trace.

There isn't much help in the PL/SQL source for dbms_backup_restore either.

Anyone here have some documentation on this?
