RMAN Backup of SPFILE Returns Error ORA-17507: I/O request size 512 is not a multiple of logical block size

 Issue : RMAN Backup of SPFILE Returns Error ORA-17507: I/O request size 512 is not a multiple of logical block size


Cause :

Snapshot controlfile is configured with the same name as the spfile within ASM. 

Solution :


Reconfigure the snapshot controlfile so it has a unique name:


RMAN>  CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '+<diskgroup>/<db_unique_name>/snapcf_<db_name>.f';

Any name which does not conflict with the spfile.
