Eric, A return code 2534 should be referenced in the TDP Oracle manual - probably as ANS2534. Anyways, 2534 is an options file error. However, there should have been created a file called tdpoerror.log. This file get created in the local directory (what ever happens to be local for Oracle). I just ran a quick test and found that to be $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/tdpoerror.log. In the tdpoerror.log you should see the exact reason for failure. Hope this helps.

We are testing TDP for Oracle 5.2 on AIX 5.2 with Oracle 9i. We configured everything by the book, but when we try to run a backup we receive the following error: RMAN> backup 2> incremental level = 0 3> tag inc0 4> filesperset 5 5> (database include current controlfile); Starting backup at 01-JUL-03 RMAN-00571: =========================================================== RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS =============== RMAN-00571: =========================================================== RMAN-03002: failure of backup command at 07/01/2003 15:30:24 ORA-19554: error allocating device, device type: SBT_TAPE, device name: ORA-27000: skgfqsbi: failed to initialize storage subsystem (SBT) layer IBM AIX RISC System/6000 Error: 2534: System call error number 2534. I know that error 2534 is a TDPO return code, but where can we find the explanation of those return codes? Both log files (dsierror.log and sbtio.log) are empty... Thanks in advance!!!
