Have you ever seen random occurrences of RMAN 10038 error (channel
terminated uxepectedly)? We have about 35 Oracle savesets running
concurrently, and random savesets will fail with this message from RMAN, but
no indication that anything is wrong from Legato's viewpoint...


I think i had this problem on a TruCluster 5.1 with Oracle 9. Scheduled
and manual backups died. After the second connect ( target and rcvcat)
rman died. The order doesn´t matter. I talked to the Tru64 specialist at
this installation and he said it has do to with a kernel parameter. It
was the "max memory size". You can check it with ulimit -a. I think You
must reboot the machine if You would change this parameter globally.

I hope the information helps You with this problem.

Hi,

What we are interested in is what kind of performance the Oracle module

has,

and what other sites have experienced using it.    I'm also assuming

(from

the literature I've read) that RMAN is used on the Oracle end and hands

off

the data to Legato for backup, and vice versa for restores.

I have Oracle 8.x Installations on WindowsNT/2000 and Oracle 9.x & RAC
on WindowsNT/2000 and TruCluster5.x. The experiences with RMAN are good.
The 8.0x versions had some flaws with non american language settings but
since 8.1.x i had no major problems. On the legato side i use 3.0/5 of
the oracle module. The performance on all installations is very good. I
mean in no installation oracle & rman are the limiting factor. Most of
the times the backup devices (DLT8000 & LTO1) are the "bottleneck". Most
of the configuration work is for rman scripts. You define the device
type sbt_tape and oracle module takes the data to your nsrserver.

OraclePress has a very good book about rman scripting:
