   I would first locate the datafile, using the file number listed in your error message. This will map to a tablespace. Then see if you can export the objects that are in this tablespace. If one errors out, you will have a handle on the problem. On Metalink, Note 131856.1 is an index to the various resources on corruption in Oracle. Consider setting the db_block_checksum with both an alter system and then in your init.ora file to ensure the corruption is not spreading. Once you have more information, this list can probably offer more assistance. Good luck.

Dennis,

We're using RMAN to back up. The error message we get is:

***
Corrupt block relative dba: 0x07c07e10 (file 31, block 32272) Bad check value found during backing up datafile Data in bad block -
 type: 27 format: 2 rdba: 0x07c07e10

***
Reread of blocknum=32272, file=E:\ORADATA\AGR53\AGRSTATIC07.DBF. found same corrupt data

I just discovered that we're also receiving this during non-backup operations:

***
