I'm running rman to backup test db (windows 2000 oracle 8.1.7). It has been giving "O/S-Error: (OS 112) There is not enough space on the disk." and all the other errors as given below, but the disk has still lots of space on it. Backup was working earlier and the setup is the same.

RMAN> run {

2> allocate channel d1 type disk format 'b_%u_%s_%p';
3> backup
4>    ( database  include current controlfile );
5> backup  ( archivelog all  delete input );
6>release channel d1;
7> }
