Hi RohitNayal,

I can see from the log that backup fails with the error ORA-19511, here are some reasons for this failure:

1- The /var/avamar directory does not have correct permissions required to starta backup.

     The /var/avamar directory must have read, write, and execute permissions.For Avamar 4.1.100 and later, correct permissions are set for this directoryduring the RMAN plug-in installation. For Avamar 4.0.x and earlier, you mustmanually change the permissions to 777 at the directory level.

 

2- Either RMAN or libobk cannot locate avtar

     The allocate channel command in the RMAN backup or restore script mustinclude AVAMARHOME/bin as the PATH variable or includebindir="/usr/local/avamar/bin".This requirement applies to Avamar 4.1.105 and later

3- An Oracle instance is running as a nonstandard user or group.

     To determine if Oracle is installed as a nonstandard user or group, check the file permissions for the Oracle home directory. For example:

cd /home/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/oradatals -l

total 28

drwxr-x--- 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Aug 26 2009 cataloged

drwxr-x--- 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Mar 9 18:05 db2

drwxr-xr-x 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Mar 30 17:21 orcl

drwxr-xr-x 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Mar 30 16:26 orcl.w

drwxr-xr-x 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Mar 10 15:50 plargedb

drwxr-xr-x 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Feb 6 16:20 plargedb.w

-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 696 Dec 28 16:58 sqlnet.log

In the example, oracle is the user and oinstall is the group.If a user other than oracle installs the Oracle database, the

avoracle program must use the --storageapp_username=USERNAME option. For example, if the usernamed emc installs the Oracle database, USERNAME is emc.

Hope this helps you,

The backup seems to be failing with error :

sbtwrite2: I/O error writing to file

Please check if there is sufficient free memory during the backup process.

HI ,

In my case , i was receiving the same problem , i checked the backup with another instance on the same machine worked ,where the filesys backups also happening . the 1st DB(instance) only gives me problem i.e "avoracle Error <7934>: Snapup of purstg aborted due to Terminated by Administrator"

Re-framing the question - how to handle two different paths for two different instances on the same machine

i tried fooling avoracle by manually adding both the paths to oratab file . then it started showing-up in the dataset GUI and the backups and restore gui.

but backup never happened

?how can i receive a successfull backup on second home path of 2nd instance

No Events found!
