Description:

The database automatically adjusts the size of its DB-RAM to the heap memory usage of all active SQL processes. These resizing operations are triggered internally. Under very rare circumstances, this resize may cause a system restart during the backup.

Workaround

As the actions leading to the restart are not caused by any specific user behavior, there is no real workaround for this problem.
