Is it first trial of RMAN backup in this server?
What status code the application backup job end with?
Have you ever tried debug logging?

[atif_munir]

Yes it is the first attempt to install/configure rman backup on this server.
Status code i am getting is 6
No idea about that

Is license key for Oracle Agent registered on master server?
What version and patch of NetBackup you use?
First, enable debug logging on master server and client. After error, look for any messages related with this error in logs. To enable debug logging, refer Troubleshooting Guide of your NB version.

One more thing. Tell us wether the command below ends successful or not.

RMAN> run { allocate channel c1 type sbt_tape; }

[atif_munir]

yes licence is there on the master server.
5.1
I am trying to enable to debug logs.
RMAN> run { allocate channel c1 type sbt_tape; }

allocated channel: c1
channel c1: sid=38 devtype=SBT_TAPE
channel c1: VERITAS NetBackup for Oracle - Release 5.1 (2004043016)
released channel: c1

Hi,

Do you have any solution for this issue? I'm on NBU5.1 (MP5) and recently have the same issue. Previously the backup were running without any issue.

Thanks.

Hi Yeok Song,

Do you have any changes in multi-stream or multiplexe lately?

I also am having this problem. I am running NetBackup 5.1 MP5 with Oracle 9.2.0.6 RAC configuration. The RMAN script is set to backup from one of the two active nodes. This has been working fine for a long time. My problem is intermittent and continues if you just rerun the job. The problem work around is to shutdown the instance on the server you are backing up from and start it up again. The job will then run without error. It appears to occur on the archive log backup portion of the RMAN script. Here is the error:
