Crosscheck and delete taking hours RAC env

rahman syedMay 31 2024

Hello all,

we have strange issue although we are using EXDATA but still RMAN crosscheck and delete command is taking too long say 4 to 5 hours or more.. and complete backup (CRD FILES) is taking just few hours..
if full backup is taking 10 hours for 12tb DB 3 hours backup is completing rest is taken by crosscheck and delete.. strange..
we have raised n number of SR's with oracle but with no help.
some times its happening the backup (with backup+crosscheck+delete) is overlapping with next day's rman schedule backup.

can anyone share some way to fix this issue…

here are the clause used for crosscheck and delete..

CROSSCHECK ARCHIVELOG ALL;
crosscheck backup;
delete NOPROMPT backup completed before 'sysdate - 15' DEVICE TYPE DISK;
DELETE FORCE NOPROMPT BACKUPSET completed before 'sysdate - 15';
delete noprompt force archivelog all backed up 1 times to device type disk completed before 'sysdate-2' ;
DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED BACKUP;
DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE RECOVERY WINDOW OF 15 DAYS;

We ran wait event sql during whole rman backup and using excel captured the most often wait hit as below.

event_name (Count(EVENT))
cell single block physical read: xrmem cache 111
control file sequential read 473
Disk file Mirror Read 316
Disk file operations I/O 207
enq: BS - Backup spare1 116
kfk: async disk IO 441
KSV master wait 538
latch free 155
recovery area: computing obsolete files 158
RMAN backup & recovery I/O 43

regards

R Syed
