Hello Ivonne,
 
it means that just E: is not enough as location, please specify the file name as well. And please avoid the usual error "-8003 log and data must be compatible" by choosing "Installation for Recovery" in the installation wizard during the installation on the other computer.
 
Best Regards,

Subject: Backup of a SAP DB database

Hello    

 

I want to make a backup of my existing database called MIM. I want to make this to put this database on another computer.

 

I follow the menu "Instance Backup Complete Data " in SAP DB Database Manager to create a new medium with the following values:

 

Backup type: Complete Data

Name: mimSapDB

Location: E:

Device Type: File

 

Button "Next Step"

 

and after that the Button "Start"

 

But I get the following error:

Database: MIM

Error Code: -24988

Description: sql error [backup_save "mimSapDB" DATA RECOVERY]; -903, Message not available, access denied[5]

 

What does this mean?

 

Why does this way of making a backup doesn't work?

 

Could someone give me a hint how I can make it on another way?

 

Thanks

 

Bye

 

Ivonne Schallnus

 

 

PS: Please apologize my bad english.
