I'm using Backup Exec 12.5 and have followed these steps to verify the media server and Oracle agent are configured correctly:

However when I attempt to backup an Oracle 8i database, I receive the following RMAN output:

I'm able to backup directly to DISK using RMAN:
run {
allocate channel ch0 type DISK;
backup database;
}
When I run the SBT command, I receive the following error:
RMAN> run {
2> allocate channel ch0 type SBT;

Since the Backup Exec log cuts off the complete ORA-19624 error message, I'm unsure what the actual error is.
I've searched the forums and support site and am unable to locate a similar issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
