Re: SAPDB and OMNIBACK

[Svetlana Vovk]

I understand that... I asked HP's parner (Russia) configure Backint for Omniback for backup and restore flat files manually.... but - they look at me big eyes - and show me documentation OMNIBACK... I've read this documentation! But there aren't enough information or I couldn't find it....  Our installation is the first in Russia SAP R/3+SAPDB... Hotline SAP said - ask HP.... HP said - ask SAP...  Nobody can help me....     Best regards,      Svetlana ----- Original Message ----- From: Heinrich, Tilo To: 'Svetlana Vovk' ; sapdb.general Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 7:48 PM Subject: RE: SAPDB and OMNIBACK Hi Svetlana,   > Can you tell me more detail information what environment variables I must define.    The only one I know is OB2BARLIST, but there may be more. Please be aware, that it can be tricky with older SAP DB versions to get those environment variables into place for the DBMServer. Your SAP DB version would help here.    >  Unfortunately I don't know Omniback and HP said - Omniback cannot work with SAPDB...    Unfortunately, that is the normal answer of HP employees, if asked about Backint for Oracle and SAP DB. We have already 2 customers using it, and HP's develpment department responsible for Backint for Oracle for Omniback knows this and reassured us, that we are using Backint for Oracle in the right way. So maybe you ask your HP to dig a little bit deeper. As a starter you should simply configure your Backint for Omniback such, that you can back and restore normal files by calling Backint for Oracle for Backint manually. Your HP contact can help you with that for sure. If that is working, you simply need to persuade SAP DB to call Backint for Oracle automatically instead of manually, but you know already the descriptions for that.   Best regards, Tilo Heinrich SAP Labs Berlin
