RMAN-06056: could not access datafile n error on AIX

The avoracle program runs as root. If you encounter an RMAN-06056: could not access datafile n error, it means avoracle was unable to open the file for processing.

This error on IBM AIX systems occurs when the default ulimit is set to 2097151. This default setting limits the maximum file size that the root user can read to 1 GB.

To resolve this issue, change the ulimit setting for the root user to unlimited. This unlimited setting allows avoracle to process large files.
