Issue connecting to the database via RMAN

edited Jul 24, 2013 6:20AM in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered ✓

I am attempting to connect to a target database from auxiliary database via rman:

from auxiliary server I run the following command:

rman target=sys@TargetDB catalog test/test@test auxiliary /


I have an entry in tnsnames.ora file for the TargetDB

TargetDB =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = target_svr_name.domain.com)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = TargetDB.domain.com)
    )
  )


when I run the above command, I get the password prompt, enter the password for the target server and get the following:


connected to target database: TargetDB (DBID=xxx)
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00554: initialization of internal recovery manager package failed

Howdy, Stranger!
