The file D:\oracle\DBW\sapbackup\bdxqhshu.ftp contain any other information or only it's you write here? How you create the Backup/DBW connection? How about authorizations?

Can you provide information for init<SID>.sap file (have the parameter stage_copy_cmd and remote_user ?

Regards.

File D:\oracle\DBW\sapbackup\bdxqhshu.ftp doesn't exist.

I created ftp connection via standard Windows functionality.

initDBW.sap:

....................................

remote_user = "<user> <password>"

....................................

stage_copy_cmd = ftp

....................................

There was a message about successful authorization above the error message.

So I think it's not an authorization problem.

Is there any limitation to the length of backup path?

I'm say about authorizations on the write to drive or folder in your ftp server (is Windows or other os ?) the other parameters is ? Read this threads , may be it's helps.

Thank you, Sergo.

I have already set up my init<SID>.sap file according to the first link.

Should I set the following parameter:

backup_type = online

What does it mean?

Hi. Good morning. Read this http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0d/d309664a0c11d182b80000e829fbfe/content.htm.

Are you chek authorizations(permissions) for the folder where you want to create backup using your remote_user ?

Regards.

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

The user I logged with has full permissions.

Dmitry i'm say about your remote_user perrmissions, from this user your Brtools connected via ftp to another server (your ftp server, this is are the UNIX or Windows?) and the your remote_user needs the perrmissions to write the path are you use in "stage_root_dir". Not the "The user I logged with has full permissions" Regadrs.

Sorry for my ambiguous message.

When I said "The user I logged with has full permissions", I mean remote_user permissions.

If I connectes to FTP server manualy, I can read and write without any restriction.

FTP server works under Unix platform.

Sergo, Do you know are there any requirements to FTP server parameters?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Hello Dmitry. I'm don't know requirements to FTP server parameters, i'm think is standart requirements (good server and good network) . The error are repeats? Has not disappeared? It is interesting to me the -->

The Backup/DBW is the directory on your ftp server ? Is the truth or need the /Backup/DBW?

Where you write vis parameter? Regards. Can you provide the full init<SID>.sap

>The error are repeats? Has not disappeared?

Now I stopped my experiments until the end of the working day.

Yes, I use Backup/DBW format, but brtools utility created a part of backup files at the right folder.

Link to my init<SID>.sap

[initDBW.sap|http://dmis-v.narod.ru/initDBW.sap.txt]

Hi Dmitry Vorobjev. You have problems to NiWrite (write to network) chek firewals and other network setting to both servers (ask your network team). Can you manualy login with ftp and try to download anything? Also is good if you explain more particulary how you create the backup (in more detail OS

DB SAP version ) and can you create succesful backup without ftp? Regards.(&#1059;&#1076;&#1072;&#1095;&#1080;)

Thank you, Sergo.

I can connect, read and write to ftp server manually without any problem.

I can create successful backup to local drives.
