ORA-27037 SVR4 Error

hans yuAug 28 2013 — edited Aug 28 2013

Hi All,

We have been encountering ORA-27037 and have read around the net a few times but i still cant find the answer as to why we are getting this in the alert log.

the most general answer that I have found is from here ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status tips   I am not sure if this error arises during the rman backup our operators run but its the activity that is nearest the time in the logs

I have also talked with people around this morning and they said that they have run the archivelog backup script, shown below.

I am also not familiar with RMAN so im not sure if there are any parameter or format errors but as I saw the backup scripts does generate the (archivelog) backup files.

I have also changed some names to **********

Thanks All in Advanced.

Below are server details and files ( alert logs etc)
