Adam,
Your script is not even running. An error 6 from a script run by NBU
indicates a failure trying to start the script. The reason you can run the
commands from the client side GUI, or from within RMAN, is that these
methods don't invoke a script from disk. How are you running the backup
from the schedule? Using a template? If so, then I think you need to
specify the .tpl in the template name (which your outpu doesn't show). If
you are not using a template, then you need a full path. There are a few
other things to check, but it would be helpful if you could be more specific
about how you are running this, for example:
- Do you specify a template you defined on the client
as the file list for the backup policy?
- Did you dump the template to a file and then specify that file
in the file list for the backup policy?
If you give these details, I can be of more help.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Oracle 9.2.0 And Netbackup Agent 4.5
Hi all,
I am trying to integrate the Oracle Agent with Netbackup 4.5 DC. We are
currently at maintenance pack 5 and have installed the pertinent patches
namely
NBU_ORA_45_5_M.
Our problem is that if we when the schedule runs the backup fails with an
exit
status code of 6. When doing a Manual backup we get the same error.
However,
when we connect to RMAN and execute the commands from the template, the
backup
runs fine, and the Netbackup Activity Monitor reflects it.
Does anyone know why it works when executing the backup manually through
RMAN,
but not when it is initiated within Netbackup?
Thanks alot, any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry for the long e-mail.
-Adam
Relevant Info:
/usr/openv/netbackup/logs/dbclient <--No logs, I know that if there are no
logs
here it signifies that no communication exists between Netbackup and RMAN,
however, the fact that I can initiate the backup from RMAN tells me there is
connectivity between RMAN and Netbackup.
/usr/openv/netbackup/logs/bphdb <---Only has a log that shows the exit
status
code.
