We have any client configured to make RMAN BAckup. For some of those, backup doesn't work, nothing in NEtworker console and we have the following log on client:
Well we found the solution. It was a problem of right. We need to add the user who sen dthe RMAN command as administrator of Networker. Maybe it will work also with less right, but anyway...
I am not sure what the difference is between the two versions of Linux you quote here and why this would produce different behavior from NMDA?
Can you ensure the servers file on the client has all names for the NetWorker server within it and see if this changes behavior?
Also try initiating the backup from the client itself (i.e. cron) rather than NetWorker group and see if this makes a difference. This will have slightly different action on NetWorker server as client file index will not be backed up due to client initiated backup. This may highlight some kind of issue in this area if client initiated backup works.
thanks for your answer. So a) the NSR_client it the same, b) yes it is. But we see that on client RHEL6 with ext3, RMAN works, but with REHL6 ext4, not.
The advantage with RMAN for us is to doing incremental backup, during the backup the block are checked (otherwise you have to do that separetly) and finally, during a RMAN Backup, the Database is not in Backup mode. PErformance of theDB during Backup are better.
I recently cleaned my administrators list which results in failing RMAN jobs but only in RAC cluster environments.
When I put *@* in the remote access field of the NSR client, backup runs just fine. But *@* is surely not what I want.
If I put user=root,host=server.domain.com in the remote access field the backup fails again. If I put user=root,host=server1.domain.com (first RAC node), user=root,host=server2.domain.com (second RAC node) the same happens.
Can you tell me what exactly you wrote in the administrator list? I appreciate it.

Hi,
Well we found the solution. It was a problem of right. We need to add the user who sen dthe RMAN command as administrator of Networker. Maybe it will work also with less right, but anyway...
Thanks for your help
