Errors during backup of MSSQL 2005 using DB13

Hi,
I have an ECC 5.0 system, and when I try to perform any kind of backup of a MSSQL 2005 database using DB13 I get an error like this:

The strange thing is that if I create a new backup device in MS SQL Server Management Studio, and assign a backup job to use this backup device, the backup is successfull... but only the first time I schedule the backup. Following backup attempts to same device fails with the error message above.
Any ideas, anyone?

Hi Kan,
So your suggestion is that I should run a backup with the format media option selected? I believe I have tried that, but I will nevertheless give it another go.
Will keep this thread open in the mean time.

BR278E error during backup

HI all,
Our database backup was running ok for the passed 3 months after the SAP system was installed. Recently, I keep getting BR278E error during backup. Below are the error message:
BR0202I Saving init_ora
BR0203I to /dev/rmt/0mn ...

rmt/0mn':
initPRD.ora
spfilePRD.ora
^GEnd of medium on "output".
To continue, type device/file name when ready.
The SAP system is on Solaris/Oracle running ECC6.0. LTO-4 tape drive is used for the backup. Tape_size in initSID.sap is set to 720000M. Current database size is 128Gb.
What is the reason for the backup failure?

Error during backup!

I have getting errors with the last 3 versions of PC Suite when trying to make a full backup.
It seems like it won't backup my calender.
It says my calender is in use.
I DO have data in the calender.
I have no 3rd party calender installed.
Doesn't PC Suite shut that down during backup?
I'm using Windows XP Pro SP2
Phone is a Nokia 6670.
Current PC Suite is v6.70.22
SnowmanDK

I did try taking out the battery several times.
Don't know my firmware version (how can I find it?).
I'm trying to use the backup from PC Suite (not the phone).
I have found out that I can make the backup when I force all services to quit before doing it.

Offline Backup in SQL Database using DB13

Hi experts,
I am new to MSSQL database.
We are using ECC 6 with MSSQL 2005. In DB13 we get the following options.
Full Database backup
Diff DB backup
Transaction Log Backup
Check DB consistency
We do not have the option to take a offline backup from DB13.
My question is, weather it is possible to take a offline backup in MSSQL.
If yes could please give me the procedure for doing a offline backup using DB13.
Thanks in advance for the response.
Regards
Anil

Lol, No by definition SAP and SQL would need to be down to take that type of file backup.
Offline backups are not a supported recovery method.
Online backups will allow for PIT or full recovery.
Offline backups will not be report in SQL or SAP as you haven't backup the database - rather just the files.

Disk errors during backup

Hi, I'm baaaaaaack!
I have a new (replacement) Netware 6.5 SP8 server running Groupwise,
with 4 RAID'ed 450GB 10K SAS drives giving me about 1.2TB of space. In
keeping things arranged close to the way they were before I arrived, for
now at least, I have a "DATA_POOL" which holds "SYS2" volume. During
nightly backups, since the new server went in about 12 days ago, I'm
getting backups failing, and eventually the SYS2 volume dismounted last
weekend during the full backup.
I tried doing a poolrebuild even though poolverify showed no errors, per
Symantec & Novell documentation, and that didn't suffice. Had to do the
"purge" rebuild, and then was able to re-mount the volume. I wasn't
sure if the error was somehow related to the server migration, so I
tried the same full backup again and got the same nasty results.
Rebuilt again, and made some changes to the OFMCDM.CFG file as
recommended in some Symantec documentation, and the backups have been
succeeding.
However, the logs show lots of entries like the following, still, always
during the backups:
3-08-2011 9:43:15 pm: COMN-3.26-178
Severity = 5 Locus = 3 Class = 0
NSS-2.70-5009: Pool AIRP_COMM/DATA_POOL_SP had an error
(20012(beastTree.c[510])) at block 129200397(file block
-129200397)(ZID 1).
3-08-2011 9:43:15 pm: COMN-3.26-180
Severity = 5 Locus = 3 Class = 0
NSS-2.70-5008: Volume AIRP_COMM/SYS2_SV had an error
(20012(beastTree.c[510])) at block 129200397(file block
-129200397)(ZID 1).
It's not clear to me if this means it *has* to be a disk drive error.
New disks would seem to increase the likelihood of physical disk
failure, but it only happens during the Backup Exec 9.2 backups of this
volume, and never on the SYS volume during those same backups.
The Groupwise total database is about 100GB, and the total volume space
is about 800GB, if that matters. (This server is built to GROW.)
Suggestions? Does this clearly point to a hardware (disk) error even
though it only happens during backups, and the symptoms changed when I
made the OFM configuration changes?
The changes I made to OFMCDM.CFG were:
InitialCacheSize = 0x0000000000400000 (was 200000)
CacheSizeExpandThreshold = 0x30 (was 0x1e)
The old server didn't have any problems backing up, and everything was
brought over intact/identical in configuration, even though the above
changes did seem to help somewhat. I'm posting here because this seems
more of a "storage" (disk) issue than really a backup issue, despite the
failures occurring during backups.
Any suggestions, or clarification about the above cause & possible fixes?
Thanks.

Thanks, but I don't know of any way to back up Groupwise without using
OFM; you just can't get the data if you do that because so many
important files are open. And I do agree that it's OFM if it is not a
hardware issue.
Your entries under "device" look like the defaults, which I started
with, and yet there are a bunch of references on the Symantec (Backup
Exec) site which suggest changing those. But I will want to compare
your entries with mine, higher in the file, to see if there is any
particular setting that is non-default and might address the issue.
I do have slots for a spare drive on this new server. Currently, the
cache is directed to the very same volume that is having issues,
although it worked fine that way in the past on the old server. But I
can easily get another drive if that will resolve this.
Thanks.

Backup on MSSQl 2005

Hello,
I need to take db backup which is on Mssql 2005 and there is space constraint. We have tried taking the backup twice but to no avail.
Is there an option of taking a compressed backup? I could find the same for MSSQL 2008 but not MSSQL 2005.
Please also suggest if there is any other alternative.
Thanks and Regards,
Ankit Mishra

Hello All,
@We did not had the option of tapes.
We could make enough space on the server on closely monitoring and deleting the unwanted files from the USR folder. It was having a couple of "copy of files" which were not being used and an 18.5 Gb of client export file placed under usr/sap/trans.
After do so, the backup had run successfully.
Just fyi, for a db close to 105 Gb, the backup file size is 82Gb.
Thanks and Regards,
Ankit Mishra

Offline backup failing when scheduled using DB13

Hi,
We have done our backup schedule of our BI 7 system running on AIX 5.3 and Oracle 10.2 using DB13.The activities like online backup and datbase check is executing correctly but offline backup is failing with status unknown.
If i check in sm37 for the DBA job offline backup is showing status completed successfully but in brbackup logs there is no log for the offline backup activity.
Kindly provide your suggestion on how i can resolve this issue.

Hi Ammey,
Thanks for your reply.
When I trigger the backup directly from brtools offline backup is happening successfully.The issue is happening only for the db13 scheduled offline backup.The same thing happened for Update statistics but check db is executed.
So what has to be checked in backint settings pls provide you suggestion.
rgds,

Protection Agent failure error during backup to tape with DPM 2010.

DPM TechNet Forum,
We are experiencing an intermittent error when backing up to tape using DPM 2010 (with latest QFE roll-up applied).
"The operation failed because of a protection agent failure. (ID 998 Details: The device is not connected (0x8007048F))"
Any idea what could be causing this error?
Thanks in advance,
Joe

Hi,
You can try to reproduce the problem outside of DPM using some external utilities. If you have more than one drive in the library, run the test against both drives simultaneously to simulate multiple backup jobs running. If you get an error
before the tape fills you can use net helpmsg errorcode to see what the error was.
Download the DPMerasetape.zip file from the following link and extract to c:\temp folder.
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=b03306b628ab886f&id=B03306B628AB886F%21524&sc=documents

Conecting to MSSql 2005 Using Flash

I am very new to Flash and Web design in general. Is there an
easy way to connect to MS Sql 2005 using Flash 9?

You need to use a server side script to make the connection
between the SWF and the database. Such languages like php, asp, and
so forth. It will act as the middle man to transfer data back and
forth.

Help!! Error during backup

Hello, can anyone point me to the right direction...I was trying to backup my database because I know that there is something wrong with my Oracle 10g Express and I need to reinstall it.
During the backup process this is whats happening:
Warning: Log archiving (ARCHIVELOG mode) is currently disabled. If
you restore the database from this backup, any transactions that take
place between this backup and the next backup will be lost. It is
recommended that you enable ARCHIVELOG mode before proceeding so
that all transactions can be recovered upon restore. See the section
'Enabling ARCHIVELOG Mode...' in the online help for instructions.
Backup with log archiving disabled will shut down and restart the
database. Are you sure [Y/N]? y

Bawasi,
I was trying to backup my database because I know that there is something wrong with my Oracle 10g Express and I need to reinstall it.
You should make a backup before something went wrong... What's wrong with your database?

Error during backup process

Hi,
Our system on a daily basis creates a backup of Sql Server 2008 database. It is using "backup database {0} to disk='{1}'" command. It works for years now, but recently a problem occurred.
On our system side the following exception is thrown:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
Could not insert a backup or restore history/detail record in the msdb database. This may indicate a problem with the msdb database. The backup/restore operation was still successful.
Processed 1442744 pages for database 'hist', file 'hist' on file 1.
Processed 4 pages for database 'hist', file 'hist_log' on file 1.
Sql Server log:
Backup,Unknown,BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP DATABASE hist. Check the backup application log for detailed messages.
Backup,Unknown,Error: 3041<c/> Severity: 16<c/> State: 1.
Backup,Unknown,Database backed up. Database: hist<c/> creation date(time): 2013/05/20(14:13:10)<c/> pages dumped: 1368896<c/> first LSN: 2054:172392:244<c/> last LSN: 2054:172493:1<c/> number of dump devices: 1<c/> device
information: (FILE=1<c/> TYPE=DISK: {'e:\backup\hist20131129.dmp'}). This is an informational message only. No user action is required
There are no other errors. The same problem occurred twice during last few weeks. DBCC CHECKDB is not returning any errors. Any idea where the problem may be?
Many thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin
your error says :
Could not insert a backup or restore history/detail record in the msdb database. This may indicate a problem with the msdb database.
The backup/restore operation was still successful.
Processed 1442744 pages for database 'hist', file 'hist' on file 1.
Processed 4 pages for database 'hist', file 'hist_log' on file 1.
1. The backup/restore operation was still successful.
----------> Seems your backup got completed but job failed , you can confirm checking backup history using below code
select b.database_name, b.type, bf.physical_device_name, b.backup_start_date, b.backup_finish_date
, b.server_name , b.machine_name ,b.[user_name]
from msdb..backupset b
left outer join msdb..backupmediafamily bf on bf.media_set_id = b.media_set_id
where b.type in('D') and b.database_name = 'msdb'
order by b.backup_finish_date desc
2. Could not insert a backup or restore history/detail record in the msdb database.
---> This cant be access issue as insertion happens internally, But space in msdb can be a issue. you can check same using below
Check database size and free space in SQL Server

Error during Backup/Recovery settings configuration

Hi all,
Using the Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server control,
i am configuring backup/recovery settings for my infrastructure tier in a 10g Rel 2 application server environment. however after specifying the various locations for Log Files, Configuration files, Metadata repository database backup etc i get the following error after clicking the 'Ok' button.
An Internal Error has occurred while performing the operation.
Performing configuration ...
oracle_sid: cinfra
The command /oracle/appn/oracle/infra/perl/bin/perl /oracle/appn/oracle/infra/backup_restore/bkp_restore.pl -m configure -h /oracle/appn/oracle/infra -f > /infrahome/backups/log_files/2009-12-06_17-13-38_output.log failed with return code 255
i am at a loss as to why i am having this error and how to fix it.
I examined the log file and saw an error snippet saying
*"Unable to get dbid from the database. Please ensure that ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID are set to the same values used when starting up the database and that the database is open.... Failure: Configure failed"*
Also examined another file generated at the same time as the output log file and in there i saw the following
*"ld,so.1: oracle: fatal: relocation error: file /oracle/appn/oracle/product/10.2.0/cm2t/lib/libjox10.so: symbol kgestKguard_: referenced symbol not found*
*ERROR:*
*ORA-12547: TNS: lost contact*
*SP2-0751: Unable to connect to oracle. exiting SQL*Plus"*
Apart from the infrastructure database, i have another database with SID 'cm2t' on the same machine and i am suspecting that OEM Application server control is referencing the wrong file while it's doing it's work. How do i tell it to look in the right place if indeed that is the cause of my problem?
In my config.inp file all the right parameter values are in place.
Thanks.
Steve.

Hi AMN,
Thanks for your reply. I managed to solve it by taking the following steps.
I use the runstartupconsole.sh script to start up my infrastructure tier. At startup it was using an LD_LIBRARY_PATH pointing to that used by an existing Oracle database instance on the same machine.
I set ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc correctly before running the runstartupconsole.sh script and after that i was able to setup my backup/recovery settings properly.
I hope this will be useful to others.
Steve.

Error during backup to DVD: Unknown Error when burning to disc (261)

I'm writing on behalf of my brother who has an HP Pavilion ZE2120CA laptop and is using the latest version of iTunes. We were backing up his purchased music onto DVD but just after it says "Burning Disc Initialized" the disc ejects from the drive and it says this cryptic error message. We also tried connecting an external Plextor drive via USB2 - same thing. Any suggestions, white papers or documents out there that'll help us? Also feel free to talk technical to us because I am A+ Certified and while my brother is an English major he also has an intimate knowledge of computers and has several programming courses under his belt.
Thanks,
Steve and Dan LeDuke

Look at some of the other topics. Many of them deal with backup problems since the release of version 7.3. Quite a few of them deal with your situation.

Date error during creation of asset master using bapi

Hi All,
Am creating asset master using BAPI_FIXEDASSET_OVRTAKE_CREATE ,,
but am getting date problem while passing value '21022005' ( or any date ) in the format 'ddmmyyyy'
the error says 'the capitalization date is invalid' ....
the capitalization date is under the structure BAPI1022_FEGLG002 of the above mentioned bapi....
even i have tried using '21.02.2005' its still not working as the capitalization date is 8 char...
kindly help me out with the possibilities
thanks
john

Hi John,
Some of the structures you have to fill for the IDOC belongs to a referencing ...X structure. For example structure BAPI1022_FEGLG002 and BAPI1022_FEGLG002X.
When you fill the capitalization dat (BAPI1022_FEGLG002-CAP_DATE = '19981231') it's necessary to fill the corresponding field (BAPI1022_FEGLG002X-CAP_DATE = 'X') to specify that the content of the field should be transferred to the fixed asset. Otherwise it'll be not transferred and you'll get an error message instead.

Time Machine error during backup

After using my external USB drive as my backup target for several months I am not getting the following error:
Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to the backup volume.
My backup volume is an external USB formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). I've reformatted and verified the external disk. I've also checked the permissions and verified my startup disk.
The same thing also happens on my firewire 400 external disk. I've tried the same things on that one.
Any one got any ideas? Thank you in advance.

You might try looking in the console log. Use the Console application in your Utilities folder. Look for entries related to the backup to see if there is more information that could give you a clue to the cause. In addition to a problem with the backup drive, the error could be caused by a corrupted file you are trying to back up.
