Could someone please tell me where I can download a manual for RMAN, or go to look up error codes? I've been looking on google as well as the Oracle website, and haven't had any luck.

Here is my problem; When trying to delete obsolete RMAN backupsets, I get an error:

RMAN> change backupset 698, 702, 704, 708 delete;

List of Backup Pieces
BP Key BS Key Pc# Cp# Status Device Type Piece Name
------- ------- --- --- ----------- ----------- ----------

698     698     1   1   AVAILABLE   SBT_TAPE    df_546210555_706_1
702     702     1   1   AVAILABLE   SBT_TAPE    df_546296605_709_1
704     704     1   1   AVAILABLE   SBT_TAPE    df_546383776_712_1
708     708     1   1   AVAILABLE   SBT_TAPE    df_546469964_715_1

Do you really want to delete the above objects (enter YES or NO)? YES

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

RMAN-03009: failure of delete command on ORA_MAINT_SBT_TAPE_1 channel at 03/02/2005 16:27:06
ORA-27191: sbtinfo2 returned error
Additional information: 2

What in the world does "Additional information: 2" mean? I can't find any more useful detail than this.

Thanks,
Drake
