Hey Frank,
Never heard of this, some more info will be good.
1) System time on the client.
2) flat file backup (using scheduled group should be perfect), check if it
is getting deleted too.
3) It is not rman backup right? From what I understand, oracle is dumping
data to some file and save is used.
4) Are there multiple profiles for this client on the server or just one?
5) Can you check when is nsrim running for you.
Thanks,
-Punit
