BRARCHIVE Error

[Former Member]

Hi

We are running PI 7.1 EHP1 on Windows (VM) / Oracle.

I ran into a error while doing a online consistent backup using Legato Networker.

The database backup part runs fine however the one which has to do with the offline redo logs fails.

The error thrown is "0005 Error during processing"

BR0280I BRARCHIVE time stamp: 2010-03-05 14.39.17

BR0005I BRARCHIVE terminated with errors

Prior to running the backup I have copied the backint file to the brtools directory and the INITSID.UTL to the database directory.

backup_dev_type in initsid.sap is set to util_file. Should util_file_online be set instead of util_file?

The value "util_par_file" parameter in initsid.sap is set to the location of INITSID.UTL

One thing that I noticed which was a mismatch between the initsid.sap file and the configuration done on Networker is that

In initsid.sap backup_type = offline is set however in networker this is set to Online consistent backup.

Thoughts?

thanks

Earlier there was one job configured which would do a consistent backup + offline redo logs

Now,

I created two jobs in EMC Legato Networker (one for the backup and the other for the redo logs). That was i work around i found.

It is a work around that worked

Have a look at the log files of Legato Networker, both on your SAP host and on the Networker server.
