Can you post your log from module (placed in applogs on client) and rman script please? I assume library linking was done as per manual instructions?

You posted in this forum a while back the following :

I know support has guide for this, but I can't check it out exactly what it was. See with support for workaround (as solution for fact is NMO5 which will be out in couple of months).



Do you have the support guide for this ? I am running into the same issue.

I also believe NMO was installed on the box before Oracle not sure troubleshooting the install.

Depending on OS, check if library has been relinked correctly first. If this is 64bit NW make sure you have patched NMO and correct version installed. I believe also that forthcominf version of NMO (4.5 in couple of weeks) will also addressed fully 64 bit Windows systems. Version you install depends on CPU type you have on the box.

The operating system is Windows 2003 Server 32 bit. So do i need to ununstall NMO and reinstall it to relink the libraries?

Btw, I just checked your RMAN script... Few things:
- have parms line in new line (you may wish to use send approach instead too as Oracle suggests that too)
- for server use hostname and make sure you can resolve (either DNS or hosts) IP of server (192.168.0.100)
- you are missing backup action which goes before releasing channel

You can find few RMAN script examples on this forum in case you are wondering what to do (or on Metalink).

Oh that was not my rman script just an example from the last thread, here is the one I am using:

connect Target /
run {
allocate channel chanel1 type 'sbt_tape'
parms 'ENV=(NSR_SERVER=servername.com, NSR_GROUP=backupgroup)'
format 'b_%u_%p_%c';
backup full
(database include current control file);
backup
(archive all delete input);
release channel channel1;
}

Yes... the version you need is x86 of module. After that go to cmd on client and execute rman script as Oracle user via rman cmdfile

Again NMO 4.2 was installed x86 version before Oracle was installed, so I need to uninstall it then reinstall it and then run RMAN again?
