SYMPTOM(s):
Backup extents have not the size specified by -vs
Backup extents are smaller than the size specified with -vs
For a 1K DB block database, "probkup dbN dbN.bkup -vs 1900000" results in a first backup file dbN.bkup of 1945590784 (=1024*1899991) bytes
CAUSE:
This is a known issue being investigated by Development
FIX:
The only solution yet is to check by trying. To know the size of the resulting backup extents, you just need the first backup file to be created. You may without any harm stop probkup with "quit" when the next device/file name is expected.
You can run, for example on UNIX for a 8K database and a backup extent smaller than 1,5Gig:
echo "quit" | probkup dbN dbN.bkup -norecover -vs 196608
