I just switched my STBDY DB to a PRIMARY DB and I am ran the following:


RMAN> CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE;

using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
old RMAN configuration parameters:
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON STANDBY;
new RMAN configuration parameters:
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE;
new RMAN configuration parameters are successfully stored
ORA-00245: control file backup operation failed

RMAN-08132: WARNING: cannot update recovery area reclaimable file list


RMAN> show all;

RMAN configuration parameters for database with db_unique_name ORARZULB are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 30 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET;
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION FOR DATABASE OFF; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM 'AES128'; # default

CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE;
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/u02/apps/oracle/product/11.2/dbs/snapcf_ORARZULP1.f'; # default




Can somebody explain to me what causes this warning and how to get rid of it?

Normally this is caused by the incorrect specification for the Snapshot Controlfile.

LkBrwn,

My snapshot control was pointing to a local file system in my rac setup. This is what caused the error. When I changed the path to point to a shared area (Ie ASM disk) the problem was resolved.

Thanks for the reply and applogies for not posting the solution earlier
