Hi Handi,

This problem seems to be from external device side. Once you contact to your vendor. Better you perform the backup with flat files instead of Archieve log while testing.

even you are using 8.1.7 you should use the the latest patchset (8.1.7.4) and minipatch for this platform.

Thank God, at last I have an answer. The Solution Steps are:

1. Change brbackup, brarchive, brconnect, brrestore and brtool to ver 6.10 instead of 4.6D

2. Apply sapdba_role.sql

3. reinstall veritas sapR3 agent.

and the problem solved.

Thanks Guys for your support.

Hi,

First you please try to copy the latest brtools if it is not working

you need to modify initAMI.sap file.

check backup status from Netbackup. This problem is not caused by barchive.
