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,

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.

Actions scheduled using DB13 fail.

Hi All,
       Actions like Whole Database Offline Backup, Check DB, Update Statistics fail when scheduled using DB13. It gives the following error: <b>Can't exec external program (Permission denied)</b>
       But the same when scheduled using BrTools, complete successfully. Please guide me.
Regards,
Anil.

Check the owner, group, and permissions for BR*Tools and SAPDBA as
described in Note .

WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds parti

WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds partial results.
We have scheduled reports which take some time to run. When they are scheduled they sometimes show successful even though the report only holds partial results. The only indication is when you open the report as webi report you see the warning that it holds partial results.
When running the report manually, it works file.
The issue is not in the no of rows in the universe settings because we this unselected. The issue is that it times out.
The reason that it times out is that a lot of resources are used for loading and processing data when the report is scheduled. When running it manually, it works because at this time the serverload is less. the time in the universe is set to 10 min.
The version we have is BOXIR2-SP4.
Ok. Issue identified.
The question is - why is the report successful when it holds partial results? If this is normal behavior, noone can really trust the scheduled reports, especially when you save it to excel and send it by mail.
Is there a solution for this except increasing the allowed query time which would not solve the issu but only allow more reports to complete?

Hi ,
Currently this problem exists in XI R2. This feature will be part of thenext Service Pack i.e XI R2 SP6.
This CER will be delivered from IDC Webi and BIP Platform as part of Jupiter Sp6.
Problem Statement:
Scheduled WebI Reports which are partially refreshed are distributed to the destinations for Users to View and make decisions. These users arenu2019t usually aware that these reports have u201CPARTIAL RESULTSu201D
Recomended Solution:
Allow the Schedule Creator / Modifier to set a parameter to stop the distribution of the u201CPARTIALLY REFRESHEDu201D WebI report.

How to create a Pooled VDI infrastructure using Win server 2012 as VM image?I have followed the "usual" way to build a pooled VDI desktop using Win7 or Win8 with success, but it fails when I use an image of Win Server 2012 as VM

I have followed the "usual" way to build a pooled VDI desktop using Win7 or Win8 with success, but it fails when I use an image of Win Server 2012 as VM instead.
Am I overlooking something? Should I need to prepare the image in a different way? (Sysprep differently?)
Thanks

Hi,
Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
Can you specify the error which you are facing during VDI setup for server 2012?
I might think that you need to check the memory setting for server 2012, as might happens that due to less memory you can’t setup the VDI setup properly.
Memory: If the Master VM is configured with static memory, it must have at least 1024 MB as startup RAM. If the Master VM is configured with dynamic memory, the maximum RAM must be at least 1024 MB.
Please check beneath article for information.

Hope it helps!

I have an sony vivaz, i want to upgrade the software. i had downloaded the upgradtion software. bUt it fails to upgrade, even it fails when i use phone repair in pc suit.
What should i do?

Hello @chavanjayesh2001... I wanted to give you some tips for when you can't update the software of your phone:
-Make sure that the Internet connection is good. If the update process is interrupted it might be due to loss of Internet connection.
-Try using another USB cable and usb port in your computer.
-Try using another PC.
-Temporary disable any firewalls and or antivirus software.
-Start your PC in “Safe mode with networking” mode. This is done by pressing F8 during PC boot. When Windows is started in safe mode, try taking the update again.

br*tools will automatically run
create pfile from spfile;
maybe the user running br*tools is not allowed to write the pfile (has no write access to %ORACLE_HOME%\database directory.
please check the security settings of this directory it has to have read/write access for sidadm and sapservicesid or one of the groups they are member in.
best would be to allow ORA_SID_DBA and ORA_SID_OPER groups full access on this directory.

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:

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.

Hi Guys
I am facing issues with Offline backup in Production system.
I had Scheduled the offline backup for sunday evening, but monday morning i found prodution box, was down and i killed the netbackup Process.
checked Oracle was up.
Just started SAP and system start running fine.
Then found that backup (offline backup) was never started.
Found following errors in alert_<sid>.log and in *.trc files:
ORA-00704: bootstrap process failure
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01089: immediate shutdown in progress - no operations are permitted

Can you guide me on this, as this has happened second time ?

Your database was trying to shut down, but in was hanging for some reason.
not much can be done, you are using Oracle 9207, try with 9208
you ware on an unsupported Windows 2000 version.

Full optimize Failed when scheduled

Hi everyone,
I got an issue with a full optimize package in SAP BPC 7.0 MS when scheduled.
The package admin_Optimize i use is the standard one. They are no overlapping package scheduled at the same time.
When i manually run the package for a Full optimize on one application it works.
When i manually run the package for a Lite optimize on one application it works.
When i schedule the package for a Lite optimize on one application it works.
When i schedule the package for a Full optimize on one application the package failed and stay stuck. Then the application stay unavailable.
This issue takes place in the production environment so i can't make a test during the day. and some people are using the application very early in the morning so they stay stuck in the morning.
Have you ever meet this issue ? What can i do ? What could be the test ?
Best regards,
Paul

When i start the full optimize by hand it's working fine (But we are supposed to launch it at 4h15 in the morning so i would prefer to schedule it !)
Are you receiving any error message or actually the statusof package show that was not completed and no erro mesage is provided?
The package stay stuck, it never ends even after 4 hours. We are obliged to kill it.
Did you check tbllogs durin the time when the package is running ? It can provide very usefull information.
Yes we did, nothings appears in this table ... all the other package are correclty recorded even the LiteOptimize that is run 30 minutes after ... byt the way this Lite optimize doesn't failed.
Also please check the event viewer from BPC servers during the period when the full optimize was running.
No error related to bpc. But i had an error 45 minutes before related to Osoft data manager

DPM 2012 SP1 long term backup fails when protected server reboots

Hi,
we're using DPM 2012 SP1 with Short-term and long-term protection.
We use a daily short-term backup to disk and a weekly long-term to tape.
We are noticing that when a long-term tape backup is running, it fails when we reboot one of the protected servers.
Is anyone else having this issue ? I assumed the long-term tape backup will be created from a disk-recovery point.

Hi,
What is the detailed error code in the properties of the failed initial replica or consistency check job ?

System Image Backup failing when trying to write to a Drobo 5N NAS

I'm trying to make a full system image through file history, and I get part way through the process until I get the following error:
The backup failed.
There was a failure in preparing the backup image of one of the volumes in the backup set. (0x807800C5)
Additional information:
The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file. (0x80070021)
I've found one other thread where this was an issue and the user said that he had no issues doing it to a USB drive, so I'm assuming it's related to using a network one. I can run file history/recovery (whatever it's called) to the same network attached
server in the same parent folder so I know it's not a permission issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
In order to know whethr this issue is related with the speicfic NAS, I suggest you try to backup the image to another external drive and check if the error persists.
Actually, according to the error message, it seems more related with the files which need to be backed up, it is locked\unaccessable. I recommend you temporarily turn off any anti-virus program protection. Stop other running processes including background
processes, then try to backup again, test the result.

Trigger fails when variable used in WHERE statement

I have a trigger that works when the following statment is in it:
SELECT custcall.callrkey into v_callrkey from custcall where custcall.servno = 152345;
But the trigger fails when I attempt to use a variable in the where statement as follows.
SELECT custcall.callrkey into v_callrkey from custcall where custcall.servno = :new.servno ;
Even though I have verified that the value of :new.servno is set to 152345 by outputting the value . That is the only difference between the working version and the non-working version. By not working I mean that the email which is to be sent by the trigger is not received.
Can anyone give me any ideas of how I could troubleshoot this or what might me happening? I'm pretty new to this and
feel that I'm missing something very simple. My apologies in advance if this has been posted elsewhere. I did spend a lot of time searching the forum before posting.
This is Oracle 9i.

Justin,
Thanks for the reply. I'm away for a couple of days but when I get back to this I'm going to follow up on your suggestion about servno. I'm starting to think that the issue isn't with servno but rather that the select query doesn't return anything because the value I'm trying to get is in another table and is not being inserted in time for me to get them. This will be easiy enough to test. To be honest, I don't know very much about how things are being inserted.
I appreciate your and Tubby's (and Tom's) concerns. Maybe I'll go back to the drawing board next week. But note that I'm not inserting anything with this trigger--only sending an email based on the insert that is happening through an application. So unless I'm really missing it, my email is dependent on the insert but not vice versa. Since my email is absolutely critical but rather jus a courtesy thing, I was taking a pretty laid back attitude about it but it would be good for me to learn a better way.
Thanks again to all! I'll report back what I find/decide.

SSIS Package Fails when Scheduled as a SQL Server Agent Job

I have an SSIS package that runs without any problems when executed through BIDS.
However, when I schedule the SSIS as an Agent job, it fails completely or part way through. When it partially runs, the part that it is failing on is a Script Task that moves the source data file to an archive folder (on the same server).
I have tried using my domain account as the owner of the job, then the job fails straight off and I get an error:
Unable to determine if the owner (Domain\MyID) of job JobName has server access (reason: Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'Domain\MyID'
If I change the owner to the 'sa' account , then the job partially runs, but then fails because 'sa' is a SQL account and does not have access to the filesystem.
I have managed to get it to work by using the SQL2008_Local account and granting modify permissions to the affected folders.
My question is - what is the advised way of doing this?
Thanks
Gary

Hi Garyv.King,
When you see a SSIS package fails running in a SQL Agent job, you need to first consider the following conditions:
1. The user account that is used to run the package under SQL Server Agent differs from the original package author.
2. The user account does not have the required permissions to make connections or to access resources outside the SSIS package.
For more detailed information about the issue, please following this KB article:
An SSIS package does not run when you call the SSIS package from a SQL Server Agent job step
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760
You can check SQL Server Agent’s activity logs, Windows Event logs and SSIS logs to get more clues. Also the tool Process Monitor is helpful to track the cause of registry or file access related issues.
The following 4 issues are common encountered in the SSIS forum.
1. The package's Protection Level is set to EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey but your SQL Server Agent service account is different from the SSIS package creator.
2. Data source connection issue.
3. File or registry access permission issue.
4. No 64-bit driver issue.
For more information about it, please see:
How do I troubleshoot SSIS packages failed execution in a SQL Agent job:
