    Remote Agent Fails

    Have a look at the user account that the service is using. Make sure it's valid and that there're the same.

    Configure Remote Oracle server for backup

    Protos, Install it on Both. Configure it only on ServerA(DB server). On ServerA General Tab In configured media, add serverB Database Tab Click "Add" and type a DB SID name, then put in an account name and password(SYSTEM works best). You also need to tell BE where the Control files...

    Configure Remote Oracle server for backup

    Protos, Good form on creating your own thread, rather than 'tagging' someone else's. It is best to install the Agent for Oracle on both A and B. On ServerA (DB server) configure the Agent. On ServerB (Backup server), in the selections screen choose "Remote Selections", "Orace...

    BENT and Oracle agent won't back up one tablespace

    Protos, It's rude to "tag" someone else's Post, rather start your own. The Oracle agent is best loaded on both, but you need only do any configuration of the agent on the DATABASE server. On the BACKUP server you can then select the DB's through "remote selections&quot...

    Please insert overwritable media.......

    May I venture a guess that you are using Version 8.6? If so, there are a few people with the same problem (me included) Here are some things to check before you panic: 1. Does your tape have enough space to hold the data you're backing up? (Taking into account that Compression isn't always...

    Email notification detail

    Hey Tim, Wicked Surname!! [medal] Are you using SMTP or MAPI? If you are using MAPI (ie. Exchange) you can select the check box at the bottom of the Add Notification dialog box to "include log file". The log file will tell you all you need to know. If you are using SMTP the only...

    Overall rating of Veritas by those of you who've used it for awhile?

    I've been using Veritas Backup Exec (ver 8.0 to 8.6) for about 4 years now, and I think it's a great product. It does have quite a few issues, but the support is pretty good and then there is Tek-Tips for when Support falls short. One observation I have made is: You have to get to know the...

    Backup Recommendation

    Word of advice! Be careful of using a DLT autoloader with BE 8.6 I have an IBM autoloader on an IBM X440 and communication between the robotic library and BE is playing up. Now just because I've had a prolem doesn't warrant me writing this post. So don't take my word for it. Read through some...

    error: " Please insert overwritable media into the drive"

    Just an addition to SQLBill's: Third, are these tapes part of a media set? If so, click on the media set and change the overwrite protection time. Try click Tools/options, on the media overite tab select none to disable overwrite protection altogether. Good Luck! Tyrone

    VERITAS: Stops In the middle of backup

    Paul, My situation was the same as yours, only I have a tape per day Mon - Thu doing differential backups and a three-tape Friday Full. Remember that the compression isn't always 2:1 Therefore a 40:80 DLT may become full at 50GB if the compression is 1.3:1 (I found that out the hard way!)...

    Hi all, We have veritas Backup ex

    Kev, Make sure that the amount of data that you're backing up fits onto the tape. Remember that compression isn't always 2:1. Big Note [nosmiley] If you go with the autoloader, make sure that BE will support it. I have an IBM Autoloader and am struggling to get the robotic library to work...

    Backup Exec 8.6 and Email Notifications

    Unfortunately the emails are not specific. The categories are: Job Cancelled Job Failed Job Successful Operator Attention Jay, the one you're looking for is operator attention. The problem is that it will send you a mail for every type of alert that isn't job failed/success/cancelled. Every...

    Backup Exec 8.6 and Email Notifications

    It is possible. On the BE tools menu, click Notification setup On the bottom right, you'll need to configure the different options. We use SMTP, but Exchange is also possible. Then, in the left main window select an event. Click add notification and add the method you want. Now just add the...

    BENT and Oracle agent won't back up one tablespace

    I don't have a solution for you, but I can tell you that BE does see .dbf and .ora. It is backing both up for me. Good luck [hourglass]

    Oracle Client 8.1.7 on Terminal Server 4.0?

    Stefan, All I can see (with my untrained eye) is this: Conflict while setting install type of "Net8 Assistant 8.1.7.0.0" to "Custom (Custom)". Install type already set to "Typical (Typical)". Seting it to "Custom (Custom)" Turkbear, I said "didn't...

    Oracle Client 8.1.7 on Terminal Server 4.0?

    Stefan, Thanks for responding. Yes, I did prepare. I am the Terminal Server Administrator, it's Oracle that's new to me. Any thoughts? Tyrone

    Oracle Client 8.1.7 on Terminal Server 4.0?

    Hi there, Is it possible to install Oracle Client 8.1.7 on a Terminal Server? I need to do this to give some of our remote branches access to the Oracle DB. I tried to install it but it didn't work and Net8 wouldn't install. However, the person who set up the Terminal Server made the system...

    Dump and Clear EventLogs from Command Line

    Hey Lifegard2, Dumpevt can clear the log for you. If you read Dumpevt's helpfiles/Readme you'll find a whole whack of switches, one of which clears the log after a successful dump. I have written a batch file that dumps the logs for all my servers and then clears when it's finished. Enjoy!
