RMAN Backup Policy using the wrong schedule
i have a Server which has two oracle database instances, for that i have 2 RMAN backup policies from that host, each policy points to a rman script to backup a database instance.
The Policy has a full schedule which kicks of the script and an application backup that backup the channels
the issue is when second backup starts the schedule that its pointing to is the other policy
Here is the example
Name of Policy 1: Oracle-db1
schedule: full and application backup
client: oracle1
backup selection: /usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/oracle/config/hot_database_backup_DB1.sh
Name of Policy 2: Oracle-db2
schedule: full and application backup
client: oracle1
backup selection: /usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/oracle/config/hot_database_backup_DB2.sh
when the backup of policy 2 starts it shows up in activity monitor for the full schedule is Oracle-db2 and for the application backup its Oracle-db2

This has been a 'known issue' for a long time.
You need to specify the policy name in the script to ensure correct policy/schedule pair is used.
