Rick, Was the “User Authentication Failed”
an Rman error? Or an OS error? I’m wondering if the batch job lost some
kind of priv. You don’t say if this is a cron run job or an Oem run job. If Oem, what Linux account does it run
under and did that account lose some privs? Tom

Hat Linux ES3 I was checking
backups from last night with the following oddity. The job failed with
"User Authentication Failed." Simple right? The oracle
user account password changed - not. The o/s account pw didn't change,
the RMAN account on the database - password hasn't changed either. I
spoke with my S/A and he hasn't changed anything either. The
semi-intelligent agent is still running (Since Feb 16th). I did try to run
a one-off job to do a one time get it done now backup through the OEM
console with no success. However, I was able to log in to the server
and run an RMAN script via command line with no problems. Any
thoughts/experiences with this type of problem? Thank you for your
help. Rick Weiss Student
