Oracle 9i Backup getting stuck [message #219287]

Greetings to all,

We have been using the following rman script to perform our 9.2.0.3 database backups for a couple of years.
Today, we noticed that the backup always gets stuck when trying to execute this script.
I have listed the rman script and part of the alert_CEMSDB.log.
I have noticed that there is a gap in the alert log between Mon Feb 12 10:11:25 2007
and Tue Feb 13 01:31:57 2007.
The last succesful backup was performed on Feb 12 @ 6:00 AM.
One of the failed backups was attempted @Tue Feb 13 12:39:23 2007 (details below).
I have also noticed below some complaints about being unable to archive.
If I do a ps -ef | grep ora I see the rman processes there sitting idle.

Any idea on why it is happening and how to solve this issue.

Thanks.

Less usefull information for any possible troubleshooting.
Check v$session_longops/v$backup_async_io/v$backup_sync_io etc to see where exactly RMAN is stalling.
