Netbackup will re-try if the script it kick off return antthing that status code 0.

What ever job the script  or RMAN start is really not under Netbackup schedule control  thus unable  to re-start them.

[RiaanBadenhorst · Accepted solution]

It retried, it failed 10:06:45 and then it started again 10:11:06 after which it failed 34 seconds later at 10:11:40.

It wont requeue the job as its not in control, its get sent from RMAN.

It may be possible to restart from rman side.
Discuss this possibility with your Oracle dba and see if this topic on Oracle web site helps:
