Hello Everyone,

I have a question about restore the Oracle9i database. When I try to restore the database from the tape using Backup Exec, it just restores the control files (I say control files because the size of the control file is that. Also during restore, the control files get copied first). The restore was stuck without giving any errors. Any suggestions or responses are welcome.

Thanks,
Shekhar

What is "Backup Exec"?

So maybe you should ask on a Symantec forum?

How are you performing the restore? Are you using RMAN or Backup Exec ?

Thanks for your response. Symantec eventually uses RMAN to restore.

Following is the error message

You should FIRST say that you use RMAN and post your session.

ORA-27191: sbtinfo2 returned error
 *Cause:  sbtinfo2 returned an error.  This happens while retrieving
          backup file information from the media manager's catalog.
 *Action: This error is returned from the media management software which is
          linked with Oracle.  There should be additional messages which
          explain the cause of the error.  This error usually requires
          contacting the media management vendor.


Next time, please read OraFAQ Forum Guide, especially "How to format your post?" section.
Make sure that lines of code do not exceed 80 characters when you format. Indent the code.
Use the "Preview Message" button to verify.
Also always post your Oracle version (4 decimals).

Regards
Michel

This is a MML error. Have you performed a restore with Backup Exec before? Have you linked BackupExec in with RMAN?

Ebrian,

Have you performed a restore with Backup Exec before?
Yes, I have performed restore before many times and it worked then.

Have you linked BackupExec in with RMAN?
I have linked the Backupexec with RMAN.

Are you familiar with the error?

Michel,

I appologize for not reading the FAQ before posting. Do you suggest anything on the error I got?
