Recovery Manager complete.

Cause:

-> Archive log backup fails due to invalid/stale archive files which are left uncleared after the backup completion.

-> It can be when there is two consecutive backups happening. For instance, an archive backup gets triggered while there's active full backup. The overlaps would cause this error.

Solution:

Database admin should run "crosscheck archivelog all" to remove the files that were backed up already.

Hope that helps!
