Re: SAP offline backup problems

Hi Chris,

I used to have this problem. Could not read the data files (randomly) esp
during the startup of the backup. Subsequently I schedule a time frame
just to backup the offline / online backup, as previously I doubted the
lack of resources (ie the drives) causes the bad backup. It works fine
eventually.

Are you running the backup via Storage Agent?

This is a MS resource issue. It is common when backing up large
filesystems or large files. While the following posting doesn't relate
to offline SAP backups with the TDP specifically, I think that it is the
same underlying cause. It is probably the latter part of the posting
that is most useful, regarding MS KB articles. See if it helps.

Subject: [ADSM-L] SAP offline backup problems

Hi,

Would anyone have any ideas??

 When I run an offline backup of our SAP Oracle database it very
frequently fails with the following


00:25:21: BKI4007E: File 'L:\ORACLE\PRD\SAPDATA3\BTABI_10\BTABI.DATA10'
cannot be read Reason: errno(1450) Insufficient system resources exist
to
complete the requested service.

This error continues for a random number of files then continues to work
properly. This runs as scheduled, on a weekly basis, and occasionally
works. I've checked the actlog and it dosen't look like anything else is
running on the TSM server at the time this backup kicks in. Also I never
have a problem with online backups.

The TSM server is running on Windows at version 5.3, and the SAP Oracle
database server is also a Windows server using the TDP for Oracle.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
