Hello,

We have any client configured to make RMAN BAckup. For some of those, backup doesn't work, nothing in NEtworker console and we have the following log on client:

BR0543E Offline redolog backup using RMAN failed

For some other client with no significant difference, RMAN works perfectly.

Backint backup is already ok for both kind of client.

Networker version 7.6.4.1 build 1049, NMSAP 4.2 build281.

Client are RHEL5 or RHEL 6.

Thanks for your help
