Password problem at the time of backup

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am getting confusion how to use the password.

I am using the brbackup to do the backup and i configured the init<SID>.sap file and i started the brbackup tool from the command prompt . I am getting the problem at password the password containing Basis@2008.

what user i have to use (i guess ; SAPSR3) and how the password can i pass.

Can any one help me.

Thanks & Regards,

Sridhar M.

usually you'd use the OPS$ mechanism, eg.

> brbackup -u / (and any options you wish)

otherwise you have to provide the password of user SYSTEM

> brbackup -u system/??? (??? being the password you have to provide)

You opened that thread in SQL Server but your database seems to be Oracle...

as which user do you start brbackup?
