Hi,

When I trying to backup one database using RMAN it failed with message
 "already exists: ssid 1291435470".

Can anyone know why it is happening and is there any chance to take the
backup without deleting existing ssid.

Note:  Checked and found that this ssid is used for old save set of same
database.




Pasted RMAN log messages

RMAN-03009: failure of backup command on sbt4 channel at 10/05/2007
