Hi all,
I am using dbstudio 7.7.03-23 and db manager 7.6 to manage MaxDB database.
Attached quantum autoloader tape device to server.
my query is that dbstudio and db manager both are capable to take backup on autoloader tape device?
OR only autoloader checkbox is just for show.I am facing prob with backup.
if i use device file /dev/st0 then backup happens but #tar tvf /dev/st0 doesnt show anything
if i use device file /dev/nst0 then it throws error like : Backupmedium #1 (/dev/nst0) Wrong file type 6,
I dont know where I am wrong.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Vikash G.
Hello Vikash,
1) The Complete SAP MaxDB Documentation available at http://maxdb.sap.com/documentation/
Please review the 'Backing Up Data' -> Complete Data Backup to a Tape , for example, at http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_7/default.htm
< -> Backing Up the Database -> Backing Up the Database >
2) Please update the thread with the following information:
-> Output of the following dbm commands ::
show version
medium_getall
param_directget UseFilesystemCacheForBackup
param_directget UseFilesystemCacheForVolume
-> Please update with dbm.utl & dbm.prt files.
-> At the location field during the creation of backup medium of type TAPE
on UNIX: You must enter an absolute path.
on Microsoft Windows:
The path must comply with this convention:
.\tape<running_number>.
Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina
