Hi,
When i am trying to run an rman backup i am getting the error (29) failed trying to exec a command,
Client is windows 2003 and master is linux,
The backup is getting completed successfully in the DB logs but i am getting the error 29,
Is it the password issue on the DB server,
How to resolve the issue.

Check This link:
<install_path>\veritas\netbackup\db\dbtemplates\oracle directory on a Windows master server and in the/usr/openv/netbackup/db/dbtemplates/oracle directory on a UNIX/Linux master server.

Hi Mate,
Some time, these backups failing on windows servers. Try to restart it. if still failing. Try to start from client end using "bpbackup" command. Then you will come some conclusion where is the fault.
install_path\NetBackup\bin\bpbackup [-p policy] [-s schedule] [-S
master_server...] [-t policy_type] [-L progress_log [-en]] [-w
[hh:mm:ss]] [-help] [-k "keyword_phrase"] -f listfile | filenames
install_path\NetBackup\bin\bpbackup -i [-p policy] [-h hostname] [-s
schedule] [-S master_server...] [-t policy_type] [-L progress_log
[-en]] [-w [hh:mm:ss]] [-k "keyword_phrase"]
install_path\NetBackup\bin\bpbackup -dssu DSSUname

if the script contain multiple commands and one of them fail you may encounter status 29.
I had a Oracle script for Windows where the date command failed resulting in status 29, but the Oracle database backup worked as intended.

Problem with missing Archive logs?
See http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH51347
Also have a look at this TN: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH32290

The bphdb & dbclient folders under ..Netbackup\logs.. probably have indication of what the problem is.
Also try to run the cmd script from a command prompt, it often helps to figure ot what part of the script that fails
