Backup for database has been working fine until today.
Today, about 1/3 of the way through the backup (large database), I got this...
RMAN-12005: error during channel cleanup
RMAN-10038: database session for channel sbt_4 terminated unexpectedly
...and the backup died.

Never seen before and the research I've done online has been less than helpful. This database is an SAP/oracle db with brtools 7.20 (22) and is using the new parameter in its init.sap file, called "_rman_chan_failo = yes", to address disagreement between brtools and oracle about channel drops being ok if all datafiles backed up.

Nothing in the alert log at the time of this error.

Any help appreciated.

Tape issue, check your tape logs.

Thanks. I am, unfortunately, not in control of the backup server, but will send my backup run log to that team and ask for review of the tape logs, then let you know here what was found.

At one location we were experiencing same issue, our backups allocated from 4 - 8 channels and when there were not enough tape channels available, this error occurred.

The cause at that time was overload of the tape servers (not enough servers for the size of the site).

You need to get the storage managers involved.
Good luck!
