Hi listers,
I've got an Oracle 10g R2 installed on a HP Unix box.
I tried to get a full backup from database using RMAN (as I did few times on
this particular database before without any problem) and I've got the
following error:

*>>rman target /*

The path "*/u04/flash_recovery_area/PRODXTEW/backupset/2009_09_23*" exists..
I checked..

*>>cd /u04/flash_recovery_area/PRODXTEW/backupset/2009_09_23*
*
[SVR001TW56][/u04/flash_recovery_area/PRODXTEW/backupset/2009_09_23][oracle]
*
*>>*

I also made sure that I have enough space left from what I've allocated to
the backup and archive destination (Which is about 200GB).


part of the SPFILE:

*  log_archive_format       = %t_%s_%r.arc*
*  db_recovery_file_dest    = /u04/flash_recovery_area*
*  db_recovery_file_dest_size= 211968000000*

Any idea what might be the cause? Any help is appreciated.
