Hi Stephen.
Are you sure that your database is in archive log mode.Can you re-confirm once
? to be on safeReason for asking : Since rman internal gets information from
the database dictionary only, whether it's archive is enabled or not, it won't
pickup from any where else.

Subject: Archivelog mode and receiving ORA-19602
Hi Oracle-L, I'm working in a playground database at the moment. It's a single
instance 11gR2 (11.2.0.3) with no replication and currently running in
archivelog mode, which I can verify with archive log list and by switching
logfiles and having an archivelog created. The database was newly created.
Now, when I attempt to run a simple rman copy incremental: backup incremental
level 1 for recover of copy with tag 'daily_bkp' database plus archivelog; I
receive the errors: channel ORA_DISK_1: starting datafile copy
RMAN-03009: failure of backup command on ORA_DISK_1 channel at 05/19/2015
00:17:22
ORA-19602: cannot backup or copy active file in NOARCHIVELOG mode
continuing other job steps, job failed will not be re-run Which is clearly
incorrect... There are so many... repetitive... questions on Google asking why
when they're in noarchivelog mode they get this error, that I can't find
anything relevant to my case. Has anyone experienced this before? Thanks,
Stephen
