I consider a 20242 error as an acceptable one, here is why:

If i ask rman to backup archivelogs that are more than 2days old and there are none, thats not an error. That is when i see it the most, now most companies will force a log switch after a set amount of time during the day so in DR, you dont lose days worth of redo that might still be hanging in a redo log if it gets lost.

Hi there!

We are having problems with an Oracle backup. The compiling of the backup
command fails with the error message: RMAN-20242: specification does not
match any archivelog in the recovery catalog

But RMAN is only supposed to backup any archived logs that are there and
then insert them in the catalog...

Did anybody experience anything similar?

This is 8.1.7 on HP-UX with Legato Networker

Thanks,
Helmut
