sapdba gives error after new QAS system build from PRD

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I brought up a new QAS system by copying oracle and sap executables, followed by restore from online backup. The system is up and running and sap is also up.

When i try to execute sapdba, I get the follwoing error:

<b>/usr/lib/pa20_64/dld.sl: Unable to find library 'libclntsh.sl.8.0'.

Segmentation error.</b>

other tools like svrmgrl and sqlplus works fine.

Upon investigation i found that, i did not copy /oracle/client and that is causing this error.

I copied the following /oracle directories

/oracle/SID

/oracle/version_number

/oracle/stage

I did not copy the following directories

/oracle/client

/oracle/oraInventory

/oracle/jre

/oracle/oui

Since the system is up and running already , is it ok for me to copy the left out directories now? Also are they all needed essentially or just /oracle/client is enough.

Please help me as this is very urgent task. Any help with be greatly appreciated with points.

Thanks,

Basis learner

Yes, it will be fine to copy over /oracle/client. Make sure you have the correct permissions on the library if you ftp them over (shared libraries need to have execute permissions).

Hello,

you can extract oracle client SAR archive in you /oracle/client, in order to be sure to have the right oracle client files.

you will find SAR archive in download section of SAP support portal.
