Checking the Configuration of an SAP DB/MaxDB Instance
Using the CLI
UNIX Login to the SAP DB/MaxDB Server system as the user under whose
account the SAP DB/MaxDB application is running (for example, the
sapdb user in the sapsys group).
In a cluster environment, the environment variable OB2BARHOSTNAME
must be defined as the virtual hostname before running the
util_sapdb.exe command from the command line (on the client). The
OB2BARHOSTNAME variable is set as follows:
export OB2BARHOSTNAME=<virtual_hostname>
Then execute the following command:
/opt/omni/lbin/util_sapdb.exe -chkconf <Instance_Name>
(HP-UX systems) or
/usr/omni/bin/util_sapdb.exe -chkconf <Instance_Name> (other
UNIX systems).
Data Protector attempts to connect to the SAP DB/MaxDB Server
system using the information that was specified and saved during the
configuration procedure.
In case of an error, the error number is displayed in the form
*RETVAL*<Error_number>.
