RMAN writing to incorrect location

edited Dec 2, 2015 5:16AM in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 14 commentsAnswered

I have a strange issue on one of my Oracle 10.2.0.4 instances on Windows 2008 64bit.

When I do a full disk backup via RMAN, it attempts to write the backup pieces to %ORACLE_HOME%\database and fails due to a lack of disk space.

It should be backing up to ASM, as I have the db_recovery_file_dest set to +FRA along with the db_recovery_file_dest_size at 250G.

I have another instance on the same server which backs up fine to ASM and the parameters are the same for both instances.

Very strange

Howdy, Stranger!
