I presume the =#LETTER# garbage is just the usual email garbling we see from various source and tranmission combinations.

What database version are you using?
Is that your entire script?
This may not be the problem, but in my rman scripts for cloning, I do not have an '=3D' when specifying the size of the redo logs. .e.g "SIZE 50M" not "SIZE =3D 50m". However, if this isn't the correct syntax, I would expect an error instead of just 'hanging'.

Subject: RMAN duplicate hangs

Hello list,=3D20

I'm trying to duplicate a DB from host A to host B using RMAN, after =3D dealing with the directories stuff (having the backup files in the same
=3D path as the original) I tried once again to run the process, from host
=3D B, but after creating the DB and restoring the datafiles in host B, =3D
after finishing media recovery it hangs up.. and then crashes without =3D creating the redo logs.

-this is the last entry to the log file -->

media recovery complete
Finished recover at 15-JUL-04

printing stored script: Memory Script
{

   shutdown clone;
   startup clone nomount ;
}
executing script: Memory Script

-I'm monitoring the process with this query:

select sid, serial#, context,

       round(sofar/totalwork*100,2) "% Complete",
       substr(to_char(sysdate,'yymmdd hh24:mi:ss'),1,15) "Time Now",
       elapsed_seconds, opname

from v$session_longops;

-and when the process hangs, the query displays this:

31   6288    0    100 040715 14:50:58              43 Hash Join
12   9025    13   100 040715 14:50:58               0 RMAN: aggregate =3D
output
16   14826   0    100 040715 14:50:58              10 Hash Join
18   10860   44   100 040715 14:50:58       288197021 !/=3DFF=3DF9'??=3DB1'=
??
29   4292    44   100 040715 14:50:58       288202572 !/=3DFF=3DF9'?=3DA3t'=
??

I don't know what are the last two rows. After a couple of hours the =3D process stops.

This is my script:

CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;
CONFIGURE AUXNAME FOR DATAFILE 1 TO =3D 'F:\ORACLE\oradata\TESTING\datafiles\SYSTEM01.DBF'; CONFIGURE AUXNAME FOR DATAFILE 2 TO =3D 'F:\ORACLE\oradata\TESTING\datafiles\UNDOTBS01.DBF';
=2E
=2E

RUN {
  ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL aux1 DEVICE TYPE DISK;   ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL aux2 DEVICE TYPE DISK;

  SET UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE-1';
  DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO 'testing'   LOGFILE
    GROUP 1 ('D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TESTING\REDO01.LOG',              'F:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TESTING\MAINFILES\BCK_REDO01.LOG') SIZE
=3D 50M,

    GROUP 2 ('D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TESTING\REDO02.LOG',              'F:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TESTING\MAINFILES\BCK_REDO02.LOG') SIZE
=3D 50M,

    GROUP 3 ('D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TESTING\REDO03.LOG',              'F:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TESTING\MAINFILES\BCK_REDO03.LOG') SIZE
=3D 50M; }

CONFIGURE AUXNAME FOR DATAFILE 1 CLEAR;=3D20 CONFIGURE AUXNAME FOR DATAFILE 2 CLEAR;=3D20 .
=2E

Am I missing something or doing something wrong? Any ideas?

TIA
Gabriel
