Oracle 11g RAC RMAN ORA-00245 control file backup operation

一．问题说明
操作系统： RedHat 5.8

数据库： 11.2.0.3

2节点RAC.

使用RMAN 备份的时候，报如下错误：

ORA-00245: control file backup failed;target is likely on a local file system

这个问题只存在Oracle 11gR2以后的RAC 环境。

二．ORA-245 触发条件
在以下的5种环境下，会出现ORA-00245的错误。

2.1 RAC 环境下，自动备份备份控制文件，会因为ORA-245的错误而失败

Autobackup of controlfile in RMAN isfailing with error:
RMAN-571: ===========================================================
RMAN-569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

2.2 RAC 环境下，备份控制文件到非共享的本地路径，也会失败
SQL> ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILETO '/u01/backup/control.bk' REUSE
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-245: control file backup operation failed

2.3 在RAC 环境下，创建standby controlfile 到非共享的本地路径也会失败
SQL> alter database create standby controlfileas '/home/oracle/renostdbycntrl.ctl';

alter database create standby controlfileas
'/home/oracle/renostdbycntrl.ctl'
*
ERROR at line 1:

2.4 在RAC 环境下，copy 当前的控制文件到本地路径

2.5 RAC 环境下，controlfile 快照备份到非共享位置，RMAN 备份也会失败
