Hi,

Please check your log file when you have last backup & Compare it with 20MB size backup's log file. or Are you using DATAPUMP?


Thanks & Regards

Hi,

Please forward you complete command lines which you are using for backup now. & Also forward send your command line which you are using when your database backup is 20MB in size.


Thanks & Regards

Hi,

If your using DATAPUMP (Oracle 10g EXPORT) then it will automatically shrink some of size of your backup file.


Thanks & Regards
