What kind of storage are you using? ASM, RAW devices, file system, ext3, OCFS, other?


Check your storage devices, specially, if you have SAN attached devices.

This problem should be reported to Metalink, this could also be an Oracle BUG or an OS patch is required.

hi,
no the file system is ext3

[Ivan Ferreira]

¿Any related information in /var/log/messages or dmesg?

¿Are these local disks, storage disks?

Shalom,

I would check free space on the system.

There may not be enough free space on the file system to write the temporary files necessary for the backup.
