The ORA-19511 ORA-27029 ORA-19507 error is related with the NSR_CLIENT and NSR_SERVER parameters if you are restoring from the Tape Backup  ( Data domain )

 

 

ORA-19511 ORA-27029 ORA-19507

To solve this error, you should fix the NSR_CLIENT and NSR_SERVER parameters with the correct values. You can review the Backup job to find the correct NSR_CLIENT and NSR_SERVER values or you can request it from Backup Admin.

 

NSR_CLIENT  —> Name of the NetWorker client resource used to perform the backup

NSR_SERVER —>Hostname of the NetWorker backup server used to perform the Oracle backup

Here source is the original production database and target is the auxiliary instance.

According to Network support, the  client (NSR_Client of Source  where backup was taken) information which was set in the allocate channel command was being lost  for the auxiliary instance when the auxiliary database was stopped/started during duplicate process, and the  information of auxiliary server  NSR_Client was being used afterwards. As the target database was never backed up to Networker using the NSR_Client of auxiliary server, there were no backups to be found.

The information in the SEND command does not persist through a restart of the database. The PARMS keyword appears to cause the client information to persist through the entire duplicate operation.

 

The issue was resolved by Change SEND command to PARMS

ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL CH1 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';
SEND 'NSR_ENV=(NSR_SERVER=NetworkerServer.domain.com, NSR_CLIENT=sourceServer.domain.com)';

to:
ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL CH1 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(NSR_SERVER=NetworkerServer.domain.com,NSR_CLIENT=sourceServer.domain.com)';

 

Other Case:

If you got this error on Pluggable database ( PDB), Restoring PDB was done on the tape which is unsupported.

Provisioning worked when RMAN was configured to use disk instead of tape.
