Hi,

I got error from brbackup when performing backup online. I use windows tape backup. The error looks like this :

BR0278E Command output of 'K: && cd K:\oracle\JMP\sapbackup && G:\usr\sap\JMP\SYS\exe\run\brtools.exe -f detach cpio -iuvB -I /dev/nmt0 .tape.hdr0':

cpio: unable to initialize ASPI manager

cpio: using NT tape support

cpio: blocksize = 10

1 block

BR0280I BRBACKUP time stamp: 2009-09-16 22.00.09

BR0279E Return code from 'K: && cd K:\oracle\JMP\sapbackup && G:\usr\sap\JMP\SYS\exe\run\brtools.exe -f detach cpio -iuvB -I /dev/nmt0 .tape.hdr0': 0

BR0359E Restore of K:\oracle\JMP\sapbackup\.tape.hdr0 from /dev/nmt0 failed due to previous errors

BR0218E Checking label on volume in device /dev/nmt0 failed

Please help, I dont have any idea for this error.

Many thanks for any input.

Aswin

Hi dear,

you first initialize the tape with DB13 and then take backup

.

command for initialize tape : brbackup -i force -v <SID>B01

This command will perform full database backup. Run it as ora<SID> user.

brbackup -u / -t online -c force -m all -p initSID.sap

Thanks all for your reply, I already checked the label before using "brbackup -c force -i show -n " and the result was fine.

Since I always re-used the same tape that I used for backup last month. So I dont have to run initialize anymore or should I initialize the tape again?

It happens when wrong Media Found inside Backup Drive( It may be that Internal Label is Diffnt from what expected).Kindly check it.

Please check note 29321 and set the trace level which will help capture more information

You need to set BR_TRACE
