Hi All,

I have completely an upgrade from Oracle 10.2.0.3 to 10.2.0.4 and then added the patch set 8708078 to fix a problem we were having with some application objects. By completing the upgrade and applying the patch set the issue with the application objects has been resolved, but now we have an issue with the backups.

I create a back up using the schedule custom backup through the maintenance tab in Enterprise Manager and the script is created but when it is submitted the pre backup stage is successful but then the back up stage just sits and cycles and the message is "Waiting for output". Nothing else happens and the jobs just sits there.

Does anyone have any knowledge of problems with the 10.2.0.4 upgrade or the 8708078 patch set that would cause this issue?
