Dear Experts,
I am performing the first upgrade to oracle 12c in our environment. Currently, I finished the procedure
for switching the Oracle Software owner user from oraSID to oracle, which is described in SAP note
1915317 - Migrating Software Owner to 'oracle'
There, at point 13 Configure SAP BR*Tools for user 'oracle', I wanted to check the result by launching:
OS> brconnect -u / -f check
OS> brbackup -u / -q
Unfortunately, these commands are failing:
<SID>adm 1% brbackup -u / -q
BR0051I BRBACKUP 7.40 (15)
BR0055I Start of database backup: beqgenmx.qub 2015-04-09 15:33:23
BR0484I BRBACKUP log file: /oracle/<SID>/sapbackup/beqgenmx.qub
BR0280I BRBACKUP time stamp: 2015-04-09 15:33:23
BR0301E SQL error -1031 at location BrInitOraCreate-2, SQL statement:
'CONNECT / AT PROF_CONN IN SYSOPER MODE'
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
BR0303E Determination of Oracle version failed
BR0056I End of database backup: beqgenmx.qub 2015-04-09 15:33:23
BR0280I BRBACKUP time stamp: 2015-04-09 15:33:23
BR0054I BRBACKUP terminated with errors
This can easily be fixed by launching the sapdba_role.sql and sapconnect_role.sql scripts, which are
contained in the BRTools 7.40.SAR file. But soon after, I found out, that things are good just in the
current session. Once I log out from the user and then switch back to it, the above error comes back
again. I have compared the environment when it works and when it doesn't, and there is no difference,
so here I am out of ideas... Please kindly help me to solve this, THANKS!
