Hi,I came across following error messages in RMAN backup log.
RMAN-03002: failure of backup command at 09/18/2011 21:31:09
ORA-19502: write error on file "/orabkup1/<db_name>/<db_name>_j6mmspq0_1_1.bak", blockno 8370177 (blocksize=8192)
ORA-27063: skgfospo: number of bytes read/written is incorrect
There is enough free space on file system. The backups are written to disk. This is a 9i database using RMAN catalog.

I see backup copies that are as old as 2 months. The crosscheck command shows few backups as AVAILABLE even though they are as old as 2 months with retention policy of 14days. Is it due to inconsistency with control file? Is it OK to delete these backups? If yes, how can i delete these backups to retain space on disk?

Howdy, Stranger!
