BRBACKUP thinks that it needs 2 tapes to back the entire system. because you have schedule this to run unattended, the backup fails because no manual intervention is possible when an unattended backup runs.

in file initEDV.sap, what is the value for tape_size?

what kind of tape drive are you using? LTO? DLT? tape size? can it handle 125GB on a single tape?

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your reply.

tape_size=400G

what kind of tape drive are you using? LTO? DLT? tape size? can it handle 125GB on a single tape?

How can I know LTO or DLT?

Please can you explain.

Regards

Siva

Hi ,

Please check the copy option in init<SID>.sap .

# tape copy command [cpio | cpio_gnu | dd | dd_gnu | rman | rman_dd]
# default: cpio
tape_copy_cmd = dd

If you are usig cpio than change this option to dd & try again .
