Catalog backup partially successful. error staging BMRDB backup

Catalog backup partially successful. error staging BMRDB backup.

We are not using BMR in our environment. But BMRDB entry is  available in \veritas\netbackupdb\conf\databases.conf

Tried to start BMRDB as per below technote. But it's failed to start.

https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH124570

Tried bmrsetupmaster as per below technote but it's failed to configure.no luck.

C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin>bmrsetupmaster.exe

  • See if running :

    bmrsetupmaster -undo  ,  cleans things up.

    As an alternative, you can comment it out of vxdbms.conf, though this is more a workaround than fix, but a bit difficult to comment as I don't know which database files you have on the system

    This would be the line to comment out

    VXDBMS_BMR_DATABASE = BMRDB

  • Please always mention/select NBU and OS version as lots of issues are directly related to OS and/or NBU version.

    Also tell us if this is a new setup that has never worked before or existing setup that has worked before.
    If this has worked previously - what has changed?

      bmrsetupmaster -undo. nothing did.

      C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin>bmrsetupmaster.exe -undo
      The current BMR database is about to be deleted. Do you want to continue? (y/n)

      In Vxdbms.conf 

      VXDBMS_NB_SERVER = NB_XXXX0000
      VXDBMS_NB_PORT = 13785
      VXDBMS_NB_DATABASE = NBDB
      VXDBMS_BMR_DATABASE = BMRDB
      VXDBMS_AZ_DATABASE = NBAZDB
      VXDBMS_NB_DATA = C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackupDB\data
      VXDBMS_NB_INDEX = C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackupDB\data
      VXDBMS_NB_TLOG = C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackupDB\data
      VXDBMS_NB_PASSWORD = *****
      AZ_DB_PASSWORD = *******
      VXDBMS_ODBC_DRIVER = NB SQL Anywhere
      VXDBMS_NB_FULL_KEYWORD = NBDB:124689:1494993603:F
      VXDBMS_NB_INCREMENTAL = NBDB.log.1
      VXDBMS_BMR_INCREMENTAL = BMRDB.log.1
      VXDBMS_AZ_INCREMENTAL = NBAZDB.log.1
      VXDBMS_LAST_CATALOG_BACKUP_TIME = 1494993600

      How to remove BMRDB.

        What files do you have is C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackupDB\data

        If there is no BMR file, you could just remove the line I mentioned previously from vxdbms.conf
