Try the following:

run {    
  allocate channel t1 type disk;   
  ...   
}


Best regards.

look at the final line:
RMAN-06172: not connected to recovery catalog database

you are only connected to your target database, but you also need to connect to catalog DB.

Best luck.

I presume that you are not using a recovery catalog;in that case
you need to specify that at connection time(atleast in 8.1.7) as follows:

RMAN> connect target system/silterra nocatalog

then allocate a channel within run block

RMAN> run{
allocate channel t1 type disk;
}



this should fix your problem.

I'm sorry the earlier solution that I gave,doesn't seem to work .Do this instead:
at the shell prompt type

rman target system/silterra nocatalog;
