RMAN error saying "not enough space on the disk"
581340Feb 7 2008 — edited Feb 10 2008We are doing nightly hot backup to disk using RMAN. Here is our script:
configure controlfile autobackup format for device type disk to 'D:\backups\hotbackups\%F';
run
{
allocate channel dev1 device type disk format 'D:\backups\hotbackups\db-%U';
backup database;
backup archivelog all;
backup spfile;
release channel dev1;
}
crosscheck archivelog all;
delete expired archivelog all;
delete noprompt archivelog all completed before 'SYSDATE-2';
The script ran fine couple of nights ago, but the previous night we got the following error.
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

O/S-Error: (OS 112) There is not enough space on the disk.
Recovery Manager complete.
I have checked that there is about 28GB free disk space, whereas the backup only requires about 14GB.
Any ideas/thoughts on what I should check for or what else could be wrong?
TIA
Pradeep.
