Slow rman backup and slow database

596722Oct 12 2010 — edited Oct 13 2010
Hello all,
Whenever I run rman backup to sbt_tape, the complete database becomes slow. Also RMAN takes more than 12 hours to complete.

RMAN script is:
run {
allocate channel t1 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.opt)';
sql 'alter system switch logfile';
backup incremental level 2 tag 'db_level2_backup'
format'%d/INC2/%t/%s/%p'
database diskratio=0;
backup
format '%d/LOG_INC2/%t/%s/%p'
archivelog all
delete all input;
release channel t1;
}
The AWR shows following "Top 5 timed events"
Event	                                 Waits	Time(s)	Avg Wait(ms)	% Total Call Time	Wait Class
db file sequential read	               817,467	17,419	    21	                    28.6	    User I/O

What can be done? Can anyone tell what wrong is happening here?

Database is 10.2.0.4
OS is AIX 5.3
SGA_TARGET is 6G
PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET is 2G
Total physical RAM is 12G
EBiz application is running in the same server
