| Hmm. I've compared the file ownerships and protections of all the
files in the patch kit, and everything looks okay. What else could
this be?
Thanks

The file ownership and protection on save and savefs look okay to me.
Any reason why this backup would work from root, but not from the
oradpa account?
Thanks

| I re-installed the V4.2B client kit, and didn't install any patches,
thinking I was messing things up when I did that. And I still see the
same errors as in .-1.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

| Hi Bruce
Yep, that was it:
/oracle was:
d--x--x--x 4 root system 512 May 8 16:29 oracle
and is now:
drwxr-xr-x 4 root system 512 May 8 16:29 oracle
Once the change in directory protection was made, NetWorker worked
again. The cure was obvious, once the problem was understood.
But is there a debugging mode that I can run save in that would have
told me what was wrong?
Thanks again

well, you ran the correct comand in .2 (
save -vg SAP_Backups -snw134208.gppc.dec.com kw.foo
), but it's just knowing the code, and having recently crawled through
this with another customer... :-)
that's why they pay us the big bucks... :-|

| Thanks. It's helpful to know that I did all that I could before
running here for help!
Thanks again
