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)
: y

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

Below mentioned BMRDB files are available on C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackupDB\data. But we have not configured BMR in our environmnet.
BMR_DATA.db
BMR_INDEX.db
BMRDB.db
BMRDB.log

Any steps to remove the BMRDB files from NBDB..

You could still comment it out from vxdbms.conf, it should then just ignore it - that's the easy way.
Note sure why -undo isn't working, must be something amiss with the DB in some way. that would require a support call to investigate. If I had to take a guess, I'd imagine this would require some Engineering input to fix.

It could be worth a look in the server.log file, when you run bmrsetupmaster, it might just show something useful.

comment out below entry from vxdbms.conf fixed the issue.
VXDBMS_BMR_DATABASE = BMRDB

Good news things are working for you.
Please note that commenting out the line in vxdbms.conf is more of a workaround than a fix. Proving you do not intend to use BMR in the future then I think it will be fine. However, if BMR is needed later, then this issue will need looked at in more detail.
