Error while backing up oracle archive logs

[konrad]

Hi

I am experiencing the following error while backing up oracle archive logs.

(.....) <-- db backup log, successful

channel ch1: backup set complete, elapsed time: 00:03:26
released channel: ch1
released channel: ch2

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

ORA-19511: Error received from media manager layer, error text:

As you can see there is level 1 backup. Does NetBackup supports incremental backups (i.e. level 1) for Oracle archive logs? Or maybe there is something else wrong?

Thx for any advice

You should have listed in your Script(s) NB_ORA values like

NB_ORA_CLIENT

NB_ORA_SCHED

NB_ORA_CLASS

The error your getting looks like those variable are not present so the master is denying any backup from starting. 

Get with your NB Admin and check these values.

Do you have any existing successful clients to use as a model? somethings to check are:

su - oracle

reverse addressing

bpclntcmd

telnet to the netbackup port

permissions
