I corrected the config file missing. I now see this error: No staging area is defined in the parameter file. The path of Backint for Oracle is not defined in the parameter file. The name of the history file is not defined in the parameter file. The name of the input file of Backint for Oracle is not defined in the parameter file. The name of the output file of Backint for Oracle is not defined in the parameter file. The name of the error output file of Backint for Oracle is not defined in the parameter file.
Can you give a 10000 foot view of the config files that are needed for backint to work? I currently have the following config files: Backint_cfg (it contents): BACKINT /sapdb/TYL/db/bin/backint INPUT /sapdb/data/wrk/config/logs/backint_adapter.in OUTPUT /sapdb/data/wrk/config/logs/backint_adapter.out ERROROUTPUT /sapdb/data/wrk/config/logs/backint_adapter.err PARAMETERFILE /sapdb/data/wrk/config/logs/backint_adapter.config Backint_adapter.config(it contents): BACKINT /sapdb/TYL/db/bin/backint HISTORY FILE /sapdb/data/wrk/logs/backinthistory.out INPUT FOR BACKINT /sapdb/data/wrk/logs/backint_adapter_program.in OUTPUT FOR BACKINT /sapdb/data/wrk/logs/backint_adapter_program.out ERRORFILE FOR BACKINT /sapdb/data/wrk/logs/backint_adapter_err.out ORIGINAL_RUNDIRECTORY /sapdb/data/wrk/TYL I see it looks for another config file? (backintoraconfig.utl) Not sure what I am missing. I am not using Oracle in this case.

I am not sure why it is not picking it up? I changed the location of the file earlier this morning but it does not seem to pick it up. Do I have to do anything special in order for the config file to see the new variable?

So far, you have taken step 3 of http://dev.mysql.com/doc/maxdb/en/83/f718a89e867446a29f5d822c409efa/fram eset.htm . The missing file is described in step 2.

I am sure my configuration is incorrect. Please see the attached. I would really like to write to tape. But I just want to get something working via backint. So I am trying the pipe. I initially tried to write to file but it told me that was not one of the choices.

If you are not trying to use such a third party tool I would suggest to rename the backup medium into something not starting with BACK. If you are trying to use such a backup tool your backup tool configuration files are not yet correct. If the latter is the case, please send file dbm.ebl to the mailing list, so that we can sort those problems out.
