Hi Guys

I am having an issue when trying to run a backup from node 207..

Initially When trying to run the backup I got this error.

scrbdefrmr207:orarer 54> brbackup -u / -c force -t online -m all -p initRER_online.sap

**********************

I then relealised that my dbenv profile i.e .dbenv_scrbdefrmr207.csh was missing the rac parametrs to connect to the other node i.e

setenv BR_NNP 1
setenv BR_NTS 1
setenv BR_RSC 1
setenv BR_RSH_CMD /usr/bin/ssh

I then changed my dbenv profile and now i am getting this erroe message ...

*****

I have many other rac servers and sids setup this way and they all work,,

I can login to sqlplus and do any changes .. no issues going into sqlplus in node 207 and node 208..

I have checked the directory i.e mesg and teh files are there ..

scrbdefrmr207:orarer 56> pwd
/oracle/RER/102_64/sqlplus/mesg
scrbdefrmr207:orarer 57> ls
cpyus.msb cpyus.msg sp1us.msb sp1us.msg sp2us.msb sp2us.msg

AppreciaTE any help guys and girls as I am rather stuck now.. I think the message is decieving as it complains about oracle home and sp1<lang>.msb not found ,, when i tis there.

I have also checked my env variables .. they all there i.e
scrbdefrmr207:orarer 58> env |grep ORA
dbms_type=ORA
ORACLE_SID=RER001
ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/RER/102_64
ORACLE_BASE=/oracle

scrbdefrmr207:orarer 59> env | grep LD_
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/sap/RER/SYS/exe/run:/oracle/RER/102_64/lib

Hi One other thing.. I an run archives log bckups perfectly.. So its only when its trying to connect into the db i Think

Thanks in advance

I have no Idea about SAP backups.
But this
Message file sp1<lang>.msb not found

generally means an issue with your PATH.


I would always set
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:restOfPaths

along with ORACLE_SID,ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_BASE

Ensure that the environment variables are being loaded correctly on the alternate RAC node when ssh commands are being executed.

You can test this by doing the following:

host1:orasid> ssh <host2> env

Compare this with running 'env' after logging in to <host2> directly with the ora<sid> user that will be running the backups.

Running ssh commands remotely uses a non-login shell as opposed to logging in directly to the host, so if there a difference in environment variables when running the above test this could mean that the .cshrc or .bashrc file is missing (depending on which shell is being used) on the other host.
