PROBLEM: Error received Running RMANScript job type in emcli (Doc ID 1145415.1)

Last updated on NOVEMBER 16, 2022

Applies to:

Goal

- emcli does not recognize a job of type  "RMANScript".

- OS and SQL Script jobs can be submitted via emcli with the following methods:

* emcli submit_job -job="job_host_0:OSCommand" -parameters="command:ls;args:-l;username:joe;password:greetings" -targets="<HOSTNAME>.<DOMAIN_NAME>:host"

* emcli submit_job -job="job_db_1:SQLScript" -parameters="sql_script:SQL_FILE" -targets="database:oracle_database" -input_file="SQL_FILE:script.sql"

- emcli does not support the job type  "RMANScript".
Submitting a job with the "RMANScript" job type will result in this error:

*emcli submit_job -job="test_job:RMANScript" -targets="<HOSTNAME>.<DOMAIN_NAME>:oracle_database" -parameters="rman_perl_script"

Syntax Error: Invalid value for parameter "parameters": "rman_perl_script". Reason: "rman_perl_script" is not a name-value pair.
