Description:
RMAN can't find backup piece within NetVault database to restore data from.
Symptoms:
Incomplete backup piece name is shown in binary log dump - the last part of the piece name is shown with dot (i.e, "...") even though its complete piece name is seen from NetVault restore window.
For example, binary log contains following error with incomplete backup piece displayed when restore failed.
ORA-19507: failed to retrieve sequential file, handle=" :#1428: :516_615559792: _1172..."
Cause:
RMAN is either looking for another NetVault Server to restore data from and/or checking data for another client. This situation can happen when following configurations in RMAN APM are incorrectly configured.
"Do restore from NetVault Server"
"Restore Backup taken from NetVault Client"
Ccheck if correct client names are entered in the RMAN APM configuration, or leave these configuraton to default value (i.e, blank) when restoring data to original machine.
