Yuval, I'm assuming you are running Microsoft Cluster Services.
Are you running the Rman backup on the cluster, or on the physical box? Either way, I think your Rman backup will fail, but the database will come back just fine. Rman simply has a connection attached to the database running on the primary server (just like a user) If that database goes away, then the Rman session goes away. Hope this helps.

What will happen when the primary node fails and Oracle Failsafe switches to the other node while RMAN is runningg.?? Will the database come up or it will not be able to?? Thanks.
