    Cause

    1) Although these libraries like libclntsh.so and libnnz19.so are present at the Oracle home path, but when backup runs via Oracle Intelligent Policy, it looks for these libraries at /usr/openv/lib

    2) Check the user which customer trying has got sufficient permission to access the libraries or isolate it.

    Solution

    1) Implement the following work around in case you root cause is missing libraries.

    - Check the bpdbsbora logs and make a note of the libraries that the backup job is failing on.

    - Copy these libraries from the Oracle home path to /usr/openv/lib

    - Also create a soft link for library libclntsh.so  as shown in example below, and then the backup will work.

    Example:

    After analyzing the bpdbsbora log, below libraries must be copied from the Oracle home path to /usr/openv/lib and a soft link created to allow the backup job to be successful.

    -rwxrwxrwx  1 root root  6587832 Aug 31 16:38 libnnz19.so
    -rwxrwxrwx  1 root root  8040712 Aug 31 16:42 libclntshcore.so.19.1
    -rwxrwxrwx  1 root root 79942576 Aug 31 16:42 libclntsh.so.19.1
    lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root       17 Aug 31 16:44 libclntsh.so -> libclntsh.so.19.1

    2) Try following if the issue is with the user permission.

    - Please try the SYS or SYSTEM user from oracle to register the OIP from master. As these are power user, 

    we should able to register the instance. which indicates the issue with user customer facing issue with. Adding the 

    right permission on the preferred user should fix the issue.

    3) Check whether RMAN catalog check box is checked and the credentials for the same are correct, This can occur due to communication issues with the RMAN Catalog Server in the oracle application, The dba have to look into it.

  • Please share more details to better understand the issue here, as putting only DS won't give us much..

    is it a new installation? was it working before? did you check bphdb logs?

    from the error and the behavior that you have, I think the TN shared by RamNagalla is a good start, but please always share more details.

    Thanks,
