BRTOOLS errno 13 when logged in as user <sid>adm

[Former Member]

Hi,

Just upgraded to 7.2 (14) BRTOOLS, Netweaver on Oracle/UNIX platform.

My brtools open when I'm logged in as ora<sid> user, however they fail with permissions on the Oracle directories when I try and run brtools as user <sid>adm.

I've verified the file permissions against a known working instance on the br files and they are matching.

The error I get is below, I know it must be file permissions somewhere, can someone advise, thanks.

hneccscd01s:s02adm 4% brtools

You need to read and apply SAP Note 113747 - Permissions for DBA tools BR*Tools and SAPDBA

Hi,

You should run brtools with ora<sid> user. Why are you running this with <sid>adm user?

Thanks

Hi Richie,

Are the environment variables properly set for <sid>adm and ora<sid>?

Try to see if the dot (.) profiles in the home directories of <sid>adm and ora<sid> are consistent.

Also, as ora<sid> recursively change the permissions for /oracle/S02/saptrace to 755 [chmod -R 755 /oracle/S02/saptrace]

Also check the permissions of brtools executables in the /sapmnt/<SID>/exe on the database server.

Normally, they should be something like shown below.

-rwxr-xr-x 1 <sid>adm sapsys 1578637 Feb 20 2011 brrestore

-rwsrwxr-x 1 ora<sid> sapsys 2303924 Feb 22 2011 brtools

-rwsrwxr-x 1 ora<sid> sapsys 4178065 Feb 24 2011 brarchive

-rwsrwxr-x 1 ora<sid> sapsys 4284895 Feb 24 2011 brbackup

-rwsrwxr-x 1 ora<sid> sapsys 5527676 Feb 24 2011 brconnect

-rwxr-xr-x 1 <sid>adm sapsys 4587371 Feb 24 2011 brrecover

-rwxr-xr-x 1 <sid>adm sapsys 5679668 Feb 24 2011 brspace

Br,

Venky.
