PowerProtect Data Manager 19.12 Oracle RMAN User Guide
Troubleshooting backup failures when credentials include a backslash character (\)
When you enter credentials that include a backslash character (\) for an application agent in the PowerProtect Data Manager UI, the backups fail.
For example, when you enter a password for the operating system or database user that includes the backslash character, subsequent backups fail with the following error message:
systemErr: Unable to log in.This error might occur when updating the password for a storage unit.
To resolve this issue, type \\ (double backslash) instead of \ (single backslash) when you enter the credentials for an application agent in the PowerProtect Data Manager UI.
