    Your Oracle dba needs to address this.

  • Status 6 is a generic error saying that the rman script has failed.

    The first log to check is the output file created by the rman script.

    Please check the script on the client:
    "C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\scripts\hot_database_backup_hypp.cmd"
    to see where the output file is written. 
    Based on the error(s) we see in rman output/log file, we may need NBU logs as well.
    Please confirm that all of these log folders exist on the client:
    bpcd dbclient bphdb

     

    Have you confirmed that NBU Client Service is started as a user with Oracle db rights as well as local Admin rights?
     

  • Then you would need to look inside the script to see where the log location is. Usually its the same folder as where the script is located. Unless someone specified some other location.

     

    You can also try and run the script from CLI, see what it says.
     

  • Hello Riaan,

    no file is Created @ C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\scripts\.

    please suggest..??

     

  • Assuming these scripts were built from the netbackup samples then theres should be output files created in C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\scripts\. One with err and one with out. Check them to see the error faced by RMAN.
