Hi Chris,

Could you send the ashtop event2 1=1 _from_ _to_ output for the 10 minutes interval while the backup was hanging?

Let’s see if there was a log file sync problem at the same time.

Best regards,

Nenad

was just getting ready to sign off and noticed the archivelog backup scheduled to run every hour seems to be stuck and has been for at least 10 mins:
