RMAN-20242: specification does not match any archived log in the recovery catalog

Hello,

I got the following error when doing the backup of the archive logs:

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of backup command at
RMAN-20242: specification does not match any archived log in the recovery catalog


The thing is that the same backup of the archive logs works fine some hours later. What can be the problem of the backup of the archive logs to fail once with this error and then works fine later?

Thanks!

Hi!

The script works fine because 4 hours later it works.
When you get the next fail, you can compare the output of next command with the archivelog directory. Any missing log will raise a RMAN-20242.

RMAN> list archivelog all

Your script might be ok, but a look at it may reveal some information to find a solution to your problem.

Regards.
