HELP!!!
We are seeing an intermittent error when using RMAN to backup our
archive logs.
The archive logs are moved to tape and deleted, but there are errors on
the controlfile backup. Whenever this happens, the logs themselves seem
fine. Just the controlfile fails to backup.
Can anyone tell me why the controlfile backup would cause this error,
when the archivelog backup goes fine?
Here is the background:
Oracle 9.2.0.6 + security patches.
RMAN is 9.2.0.6.0 (same ORACLE_HOME)
Tivoli Data Protection for Oracle (TDPO) 5.2.0.0

- Typical Tivoli Log ------------------
- Each backup has a start, a number of bytes send, and an end.
- In this example, 205017,
- It starts,
- backs up R25PROD_ARCHIVE_20060731_597246624_s29484_p1
- Size 33554432 bytes,
- then ends.

No action, just a start, then an end. While on the RMAN side I get the
error above.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
