hi gaurav

• sap is in vmware in my laptop ,full permissions r given to the drives but still i face the issue .is it work in vmware wokstation ?

[former_member182657]

So you want to take backup on drives .If yes than try to use backup_device_type = disk instead of method pipe.

have to change in initDON.sap right ??

backup mode [all | all_data | full | incr | sap_dir | ora_dir

# | <tablespace_name> | <file_id> | <file_id1>-<file_id2>

# | <generic_path> | (<object_list>)]

# default: all

backup_mode = full

# restore mode [all | all_data | full | incr | incr_only | incr_full

# | <tablespace_name> | <file_id> | <file_id1>-<file_id2>

# | <generic_path> | (<object_list>)]

# redirection with '=' is not supported here - use option '-m' instead

# default: all

restore_mode = full

# backup type [offline | offline_force | offline_standby | offline_split

# | offline_stop | online | online_cons | online_split]

# default: offline

backup_type = offline

# backup device type

# [tape | tape_auto | tape_box | pipe | pipe_auto | pipe_box | disk

# | disk_copy | disk_standby | stage | stage_copy | stage_standby

# | util_file | util_file_online | rman_util | rman_disk | rman_stage

# | rman_prep]

# default: tape

backup_dev_type = disk

# backup root directory [<path_name> | (<path_name_list>)]

# default: %SAPDATA_HOME%\sapbackup

backup_root_dir = F:\oracle\DON\sapbackup

# stage root directory [<path_name> | (<path_name_list>)]

# default: value of the backup_root_dir parameter

stage_root_dir = F:\oracle\DON\sapbackup

# compression flag [yes | no | hardware | only]

# default: no

compress = no

Hi Shanker,

You are using VMWare.

Can you explain the scenario, which OS you are using in VMware ? How much space you have given to it? How and where is your DB installed ?
