you should have mentioned it, nobody knows what you have done so far.

no, i don't have any problems backing up RAC (10.2.0.2) on AIX (now 5.3TL4).
i assume you're using 10g too because you mentioned ONS (i highly doubt that ONS is the root of your problem).

stupid or not, he made some points.

back to topic (i repeat some questions asked by sybrandb):

what do you mean by 'backup locks up"? it stalls? did you use 'truss' to see what the server processes do when this "lock up" occurs? how exactly do you back up your database (backup script + tns config could help).

next thing: "cluster is failing". please define "failiing". do you see node evictions or does the cluster hang or reboot or what exactly happens? any hints what's going on in crs logs (especially css)?
