    Hello

    Are you able to backup when running the script from the client? As per TECH51372, Enable the bphdb log file on the Oracle server. This will give further logging for us to use.

    Consider to switch to the NBU 7.6 Oracle Intelligent Policies

    • Auto discover of databases
    • No more scripts to manage
    • Schedule databases as file system backups

    The dbclient log on the oracle server can also be helpful.

    If your VM is Unix/Linux variation check that script has execution permission

    Found the running the script manually from a prompt often helps indicate what the problem is.
