In some earlier versions of NetBackup there was a bug where in some cases all Oracle backups would end with status code 6, but it's been fixed by v6.5.
As the others have written, there may be detail in the child jobs or you may have to use logging that your RMAN script has created. For certain backups, I've seen a status code 6 when RMAN was told to backup archive redo logs and a quiet DB has created none. If this isn't an agent backup, then it might be something like a policy specifying (only) an object that does not exist on the client. Cheers, Wayne
