ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status

user275290Mar 8 2012 — edited Mar 8 2012
Hi Gurus,

11.2.0.1 RAC on AIX 5L

I got the error whiile trying to do incremenat 1 level backup today at 08-MAR-12.The archivelog that it was looking for was generated on 05-MAR-12:20:19:49 .The level 1 backup went fine on 06-MAR-12 and 07-MAR-12. Why is it trying to look for this archivelog when it should be backing up only the changed blocks(BCT disabled currently) after 07-MAR-12 - the archivelogs generated during and after INCR 1 backup,is my understanding correct?My backup script doesn't contain the archivelogs backup.

I know i can just do a crosscheck against the archivelogs and the backup should go fine.

Backup script:
backup incremental level 1
      format 'df_incr1_%d_%s_%p'
     (database include current controlfile); sql "alter system archive log current"; 
RMAN-03002: failure of backup command at 03/07/2012 20:20:53
RMAN-06059: expected archived log not found, loss of archived log compromises recoverability
