Hi

Request you to make sure the below mentioned things are set properly:

1. Ensure that the "tmp" mount was not mounted with the "noexec" option. The script is first copied to /tmp on all nodes and executes from this location(If you have specified a directory other than /tmp in the vbr.ini config file, ensure that mount is not using the "noexec" option).

2. The dbadmin Linux user should have read/write/execute permissions for "/tmp". If this directory can not be written to, the process will fail.

Regards

Rahul
