Re: [Veritas-bu] Failing Oracle Rman Backup

Make sure your NetBackup patch levels match between the master/media and the client. Check firmware levels on network cards / hba's throughout the system.

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Failing Oracle Rman Backup

This error message seems incomplete; can you please see if there are more details. Perhaps see where RMAN is piping out the log files? A couple of base things you may wish to check:

1. Space: Are you running out of space wherever your oracle datafiles/logfiles/redo/tmp/etc... are stored?
2. Media: Do you got enough scratch? Do you have enough in your tape pool?
3. Permissions: Do you have the correct permissions (i.e. is the right user running the job(s))?

Also, we could use more information on your environment to resolve this. Please let us know when you get a minute some more detail like version numbers, master/media details, how the db is setup to work with rman and how rman is setup to work with netbackup. Thanks!

Hi

If it is a unix client you may need to recreate the link from oracle
to the relevant netbackup libobk
