Netbackup 6.0 MP5, Solaris 10 Master Server, Solaris 8 Media Server w/ SCSI attached Quantum SDLT600 superloader (Sun SPARC v440 hardware), SuSE Ent. Linux 9 (64bit) Client (Sun Opteron AMD64 x4200 hardware)
Oracle 10g
The Linux client runs the oracle db. The Linux client was created via an image that was used to make 14 other oracle db servers on the same x4200 server hardware (same amount of ram, # CPU, and CPU type) that each work with their own media server.
Running the RMAN command (as oracle):
run {
allocate channel ch00 type 'sbt_tape';
release channel ch00;
}
Doesn't do anything. And when I say doesn't do anything...it just sits there. It doesn't give an error, it doesn't give any output. Running
debug on; in the rman command, the output stops at:
DBGRPC: krmxr: xc=192932958840 chid=ch00 calling peicnt
Doing an strace, I see it load up the libobk.so64 library...but it looks like it hangs on sbtinit.
I've tried reinstalling the netbackup client...I've relinked the oracle DB and restarted the Oracle DB.
I have a ticket open with symantec. Oracle says it's Netbackup (of course).
The Oracle DB cannot be reinstalled, this is a production server with a production DB.
Any thoughts?
