Hi,

I have a Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 on Linux. RMAN is configured to do backups via Tivoli. This worked pretty nicely in the past but now we have a backup job that just hangs in step "Backup" since Jan 15th (see below, "Pre-Backup" was ok). Since there are no errors as far as I can see (also checked syslog), is there some other place to look for diagnostic messages?

Bonus question: is it safe to just cancel this job?

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards

        robert
