Hi,

On Monday we started receiving this error in our backup log:

RMAN-00571:

---

RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS

RMAN-03009: failure of delete command on d4 channel at 01/20/2012 02:31:24
ORA-19633: control file record 6197 is out of sync with recovery catalog

We do not use a recovery catalog, we use the control file. Oracle has been less than helpful, telling us that the only way to solve this bug is to use a recovery catalog. I find that funny as we have 20 databases, each using their control file, and this is the first time it has ever happened.

At any rate, I cannot find a solution. Can anyone help? I'm also thinking if I can just delete all the backups, will it clear those records from the control file, and I can start with a fresh level 0 backup.

Thanks! Received on Fri Jan 20 2012 - 10:38:17 CST
