Hi all,

Has anyone come across an ORA-959 error during a hotbackup (the error occurred when the backup began and ended). We are using a Oracle 9i db. And the db actually houses the RMAN catalog

Thanks in advance for your help,
Nikesh.
You were doing a scripted hot-backup without RMAN on the RMAN catalog? Or you were doing a hot backup with rman without a catalog?
