DUMP failed in database %.*s: unexpected status executing RPC: %d.
Dumps and loads are performed by an Open Server program known as Backup Server. Adaptive Server communicates with Backup Server using remote procedure calls (RPCs). When a dump database command is processed, for example, Adaptive Server uses RPCs to send parameters to Backup Server. Error 3212 is raised when an Adaptive Server RPC to the Backup Server returns an unexpected status that Adaptive Server cannot process.
Check the Adaptive Server and Backup Server error logs to determine the cause of the error.
Test the connection between the Backup Server and the Adaptive Server. Log into the Adaptive Server using isql and type:
1> execute <backupserver>...sp_ps 2> go
Where <backupserver> is the name of your Backup Server. This executes sp_ps on the Backup Server.
If you need to call Sybase Technical Support, have the information on hand that is listed in “Reporting errors”.
