I am configuring RMAN on one of our production databases.
I configured RMAN successfully without any errors. After that I gave "backup database" command.
Given following error.
RMAN> backup database;
Starting backup at 02-FEB-13
allocated channel: ORA_DISK_1
channel ORA_DISK_1: SID=269 device type=DISK
