Hello
We have our SAP landscape running on Solaris 10, and oracle 11G.
We have Netbackup 7.6 client installed on the servers.
When running online backups from SAP or the OS using Brtools or BrBackup, backups work 100%.
From Netbackup we get the following error:
BR0051I BRBACKUP 7.20 (1)
BR0055I Start of database backup: berfherp.anf 2015-08-20 09.59.29
BR0484I BRBACKUP log file: /oracle/EP1/sapbackup/berfherp.anf
BR0280I BRBACKUP time stamp: 2015-08-20 09.59.29
BR0301E SQL error -1017 at location BrDbConnect-2, SQL statement:
'CONNECT system/*******'
I have discovered that the SYSTEM user has to have the default password of "manager"
If it is anything else this error will appear
Is this the case.
Please advise.
Regards
Selven Naidoo

You have two possibilities - we use option 1:
1: ops$ login

2: Hide the system/manager backup password like this (UNIX)
ORAPW="$(cat /oracle/${SID_UPP}/netbackup/${SID_LOW}.pw)"

No - it can be anything. Its highly recommended to change it to somthing else than default.
Are you using Veritas default SAP script ?
I use custom scripts - the password for SYSTEM is stored in a safe location with only root having read access.

Hi Nicolai
I thought as much, but I have been having endless arguments with the vendor for Netbackup, and they tell me, that is I change the password, then I must put the username and password into the script.
We are using Symantec Netbackup 7.6
The scripts are customised for our system, whereby only the server names and backup server were changed.
The Netbackup vendor told me that they have logged a call/incident with symantec, and they insist, we put the password in the script.
please let me know.
