Re: Lengthening backup

the first week  when the problem starts i would look at the ora_i process. we 
had the excact same problem with ora_i being hung and oracle spawing more ora_i 
processes until the backusp became real slow and used to crawl to a halt.
killing the previous ora_i processes immediately solved the issues.

SQL> SELECT DISTINCT(incremental_level)
   FROM rc_backup_set WHERE db_id = 435051864
   AND start_time > SYSDATE -10;
  
INCREMENTAL_LEVEL
-----------------
 
So the incremental level is null.

The only thing I can think of that would cause such behaviour is if for some 
reason you were actually running a cumulative incremental backup.  From the 
script you've shown, that doesn't appear to be the case, but could you check 
the incremental_level of the rc_backup_set view in your recovery catalog and 
verify?

I'm having some issues with a client's RMAN backup.  They're on Oracle 8.1.7.4, 
Solaris 8.  It's a weekly full backup, and they're backing up ~1.5TB to disk, 
and the longer the instance is up, the longer the backup takes.
