Netbackup integration with SAP MaxDb database

[BhanuPrakash]

Hi 

we are integrating MAXDB 7.8 and 7.5 backups with NETBACKUP tool.
when triggering maxdb policy from netbu admin tool it fails with below
error.

/7/2013 5:07:25 PM - Info bphdb(pid=5184) Backup started

1/7/2013 5:07:26 PM - Error bpbrm(pid=10511) from client andwkpro7: ERR

1/7/2013 5:07:26 PM - Error bpbrm(pid=10511) from client andwkpro7: ERR

1/7/2013 5:07:28 PM - Info bphdb(pid=5184) done. status: 6: the backup
failed to back up the requested files

the backup failed to back up the requested files(6)

Appreciate any help with this issue.

Thanks

These codes on the Master just indicate a problem with the database backup. You'll have to look at the bphdb logs on the client. If the directory does not already exist, mkdir C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\logs\bphdb , then run the job again.

I got below error in the logs as you mentioned in your reply

SAP_SCHEDULED = 1
SAP_USER_INITIATED = 0
SAP_SERVER = XXXX

SAP_POLICY = SAP-XXXX
SAP_FULL = 1
SAP_CINC = 0
