When you do the test, open an administrative client in console to the TSM
server (dsmadmc -consolemode) so that you can see which node is connecting
and any error messages the TSM server may be reporting.

Also change your rman script environment variables to include DSMO_DEBUG=49.
 This will cause a file orcagent.log in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory.
That file will contain useful troubleshooting information.
'ENV=DSMI_ORC_CONFIG=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/dsm.opt,DSMO_AVG_SIZE=1000,DSMO_DEBUG=49)';

post the results of doing those two items, and may be able to assist in
troubleshooting.

Subject: Problem with RMAN backup of Oracle 8.1.7 database
Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2001 18:02:50 +0200

Hi everyone!

I have a problem with the implementation of a Oracle 8.1.7 backup with
RMAN. I get connect to the ADSM Server (3.1.2.16) twice with enrties
in the api errorlog that the MC spezified in the inclexcl file could not be
found.
I fixed the mistake and restart the RMAN script. Now I get the same
errors from RMAN but no entries in the server actlog or the api errorlog.
So I'm sure that there is no connect to the ADSM Server.

Any suggestions what is wrong would be greatly appreciated!!!

Clemens

My environment is:
ADSM Server 3.1.2.16
API 3.7.2.0
libobk.a 2.1.0.10
OS on DB Server AIX 4.3.3

The RMAN Output is:
