We are using oracle as database in our application. For high availability we have a cluster of multiple nodes and the data is replicated using oracle streams. All the nodes in the cluster are active. We do not have any concept of stand-by. Now we are planning to use oracle RMAN for backup and recovery. RMAN user's guide doesn't recommend any strategies for such deployments. It mainly focuses on primary/stand-by deployments. Is there any other place I can find info in this regard ??

Welcome to the forum. Please read our OraFAQ Forum Guide and How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read

You are not going to like this answer. I think you have taken a seriously wrong approach. Replicating multiple databases is not usually the best approach for HA in an Oracle environment. Data Guard is usually a far superior solution, both in terms of functionality and ease of maintenance. Is there any reason not to use it? You may have done a lot of work with Streams already, but it would be better to change now, rather than later.
