Error: Database Not Found in BDRSuite for Applications & DBs

KB ID: 115089
Issue:
Encountering a "Database not found" error during an MS-SQL server backup indicates that the configured databases are either unavailable, removed, deleted, corrupted, or facing connectivity issues.
Cause:
The error occurs when one or more of the following situations happen:
1. Configured databases are not available or have been removed/deleted.
2. The databases are corrupted.
3. There is a connectivity problem with specific databases.
Solution:
To resolve the "Database not found" error in BDRSuite for Applications & DBs , follow these steps:
1. Check Availability: Ensure that the configured database(s) exist in their original location and are accessible.
2. Verify Listening State: Confirm that the configured database(s) are in the listening state, allowing the backup process to access them.
3. Check Database Name: Double-check that the name of the database entered in the backup job configuration matches the actual database name.
4. Remove Database from Backup Job: If you want to remove a database from the backup job because it was removed from the MSSQL server, perform the following steps:
   a. Access the VembuBDR server console.
   b. Navigate to the top menu, click on "Backup," and then select the "List jobs" tab.
   c. Locate the specific backup job and click on the edit icon.
   d. Save the configuration without making any changes to remove the database from the backup job.
Note: Even after removing a database from the backup job, the old backed-up data will remain available in the backup server for future restoration purposes.
