BRARCHIVE stage copy (ftp) ERROR

[Former Member]

Dear All,

We are recently facing a typical BRARCHIVE error, where we are moving the generated offline redo logs using FTP to a different central server & backup to tape will be taken from the same. But from a few days we are facing a error as shown below

as per above error, at first the redo log file is getting saved, but not able to find the same at the central (target) archive log server. we referred to the BR errors Notes & others in market place & browsed a lot on the topic, but nothing was related & helpful to solve.

Our environment is Win 2003/Oralce/ECC6.0

Suggestions are welcome & Please advice

BR0012I 1 next offline redo log file found for processing, size 48.361 MB

BR0016I 7 offline redo log files processed, total size 341.445 MB

Here archivelogs are getting processed....check the source archive directory and compare the same with your central server

But size of the files are showing different....check all of the contents of source an target

Hello Nick,

Size of 1 archive log is 48.361 MB & total no of archived logs moved to central server are 7 (total size 341.445 MB) from the time of the start of BRarchive run.

When it was processing the 8th Archive log (which it founds, process, then shows as SAVED) to central archive server, it throws the error as mentioned in the post.

#SAVED.... /Developmentserver/ERD/ERDARCHARC00420_0708032176.001 #1/8

When I recheck the location of the archive log, it is sill present in the application server, rather to be in central archive server.

My issue is, when it was able to process the last 7 logs properly, why it is showing an error for 8th log?

Note: when I run the brarchive command again, the log will be moved properly (where the command use to run uninterrupted for more than 8 days before, bcos of this issue it is terminating in 2 days)

Please advice
