Hi All,
Am executing an online bakup of my production server to an hard disk, the amount of free space is 250GB and the db size is around 142GB, when the first data file round 4GB is being copied, it throws an error stting BR0278E, here is the error log
R0077I Database file for backup: F:\oracle\P01\sapbackup\CNTRLP01.DBF

Any ideas why this happens

Hello,
My first reaction would be to make absolutely sure you do indeed have enough free space on the target drive. A simple "dir G:\DBbackup" will tell you this when you look at the "bytes free" line at the end. If free space is not the problem, then you may try (it's a long shot but it's the first thing I would do in this situation) to play with the parameters of the "dd" command, and more specifically the block size. You can set this in the init<SID>.sap profile, the parameters are "dd_flags" and "dd_in_flags". Perhaps the blocksize of 64k causes some kind of problem. Try a smaller block size e.g. bs=32k or bs=16k.
If this does not help (and there is a good chance it won't), then let us know.
Regards,
Mark
