Oracle Backup - Database must not contain any data files that are in backup mode.
Dear online team, Since upgrading from NetBackup 9.1 to NetBackup 10.4 we I have errors with Oracle backups if two jobs are run simultaneously. Let's say large database that needs 10 hours for the FULL backup to complete. During the time this backup is running, another Archive Log backup starts. (we have archive log backups running every half hour) This Archive Log backup fails with following error that was not the case previously: (5457) Database must not contain any data files that are in backup mode. This was not the case before and you could run as many jobs as you want at the same time.. This only happens to container databases that has pluggable databases inside the container. CDBs Has anyone experienced anything similar? Any help would be really appreciated. I even updated to NetBackup 10.5 but issue still remains..17Views0likes0CommentsPostgreSQL - backup of WAL files
Dear community, I need some help. I have setup one datastore backup policy that runs Application backup of PostgreSQL database. Now I am looking in how to manage WAL backups. I need the logs backed up at least once an hour so that I can restore any hour of the day. Meaning hour back if needed. (Oracle database backups have intelligent policies to manage backup of logs, but this is not the case for PostgreSQL) I have thought of creating another Standard policy that will run every hour to backup specific directory where all WAL files will be located. I could use crontab to schedule hourly job that runs bparchive command and set it to automatically delete files that have been backed up. However, this becomes very difficult to manage on NetBackup and client side, if you plan to have around 500 databases in the future. Protection plan is a no-go, as it is not very useful and does not allow for customization of SLPs. (meaning you will end up using a lot of disk backup storage) Has anyone found good solution for backing up PostgreSQL databases? Thank you for your assistance in this.

new esxiis not viewable when browsing from Netbackup console
recently , i faced problem to get the new esx server backup via the flashbackup -windows policy . Because im unable to browse the new esx host from the client selection list. I have checked that the C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\online_util\fi_cntl vc.host.xml didnt show the new esx host name. But from the GUI , im unable to view it . I have also cleared the all files on the fi_cntl and restart the netbackup service on the vmware backup host. But still the same . Is there any method to force a update . bpclntcmd -clearhostcache?Solved1.8KViews0likes11CommentsNetbackup Installation failing Error - ERROR: NetBackup Database Creation Failed!

Hello everyone. I've recently learned to config FT and decided to test my oracle backups with FT. Normal filesystem backup from client is fine and it shows the transport protocol is FC. But when I start an Oracle policy, all of child processes fail with error "unimplemented feature", nothing more. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Master server Netbackup version is 10.2 on Redhat 7.9. Client version is 10.0.1 on Solaris 11. Oracle version is 19c. Any help would be great63Views0likes3CommentsIs there a way to backup the OS through NetBackup?
I am curious if it is possible to back up the OS using only netbackup software without using bmr or vsr. There are system state and shadow copy components in the backup selection, and I am wondering if it is possible to backup and restore the server OS through these. If you know any ideas or technote addresses, please let me know.46Views0likes2CommentsVMware backup failures with status code 200
Having a heck of a time trying to figure this out. 14 of my 21 VMware policies are failing with a status code 200 for some reason. Credentials are good and we can do a test query with no issues. Windows 2012 VMware Backup Host 5.5 Update 2 7.6.0.2 and I verified the VDDK is 5.5.0 I have attached all of the logs that would actually run. I cranked VXMS up to 5, but no log was created as I am guessing it just doesnt get that far into the process.
