I am using the following backup script (see below) but my output does not appear to be going to the directory specified '/oracle/backup/pri' but is being
placed in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/

Can somebody tell me what the issue is? BTW, I am running Release 10.2.0.1.0


rman < connect target sys/sys@GOLD_PRI
connect catalog rman/rman@GOLD_CAT

crosscheck Backup;
crosscheck Archivelog All;
run {
SQL 'alter system switch logfile';

CONFIGUE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/oracle/backup/pri/control_file_%F';
