My problem has been solved though I'm still not sure the cause of it. I
had the DBAs pull the ORACLE_HOME from another system where rman was
working and it now properly opens the shared library.

Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Oracle RMAN problem -- odd



Hi Charlie

We had a similar problem with RMAN - turned out that the symlink to the
shared library was missing from Oracle's environment. Although the
shared library existed in /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/, RMAN could not find
it!

cd ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib
ls -l libobk.so

If libobk.so exists:
mv libobk.so libobk.so.orig

ln -s /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/libobk.so.1 libobk.so

Hope that helps?
Mike
