HP 3PAR Recovery Manager 4.5.0 for Oracle on Solaris, Red Hat Linux, and Oracle Enterprise Linux User's Guide (QL226-97705, May 2014)

On the backup server, Oracle asmlib configuration file (/etc/sysconfig/oracleasm, which
links to /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm-_dev_oracleasm) has “dm” specified for
ORACLEASM_SCANORDER, which means Oracle will scan the device mapper devices. However,
Recovery Manager for Oracle checks and finds out that there is no multipathd daemon running,
hence the error displayed.
SOLUTION
Start the multipathd daemon using the command /sbin/service multipathd start or
/etc/init.d/multipathd start.
MESSAGE ID

SYMBOLIC NAME
RMO_ERROR_TAR
MESSAGE
3PAR1308: ERROR: Failed to tar/untar file <file> in directory <directory>.
REASON
The rmora_export command uses the tar command to create a tarball from the backup server
repository, copy the tarball, and extract it on the alternate backup server. The error occurs when
the tar command fails.
SOLUTION
Check the error message and make sure the tar command works on both the backup server and
the alternate backup server. The tar command should be in /bin/tar in Linux and /usr/bin/
tar in HP UX and Solaris.
