Symptom
From DB14,

Job started Step 001 started (program RSDBAJOB, variant XXXX, user ID XXXX) No application server on database host - rsh will be used Execute logical command BRCONNECT On host XXX Parameters: -u / -c -f check SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE failed for BRCONNECT - Reason: program_start_error: For More Information, See SYS Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE
Solution
1. Ensure the RFC destination for SAPXPG_DBDEST_DBxxx & SAPXPG_DBDEST_SAPxxx is correctly configured. If your system is having multiple Application Servers. Compare the RFC connection test of Application Server with central instance. If in the Central Instance, the connection test is working fine but failed in the Application Server. You will need to go SAP Note 980266 for details. In short, you’ll need to set Program to full path of the sapxpg (/usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run/sapxpg). Also, set the gateway host as per mentioned in the SAP Note 980266. You can also set the BRARCHIVE, BRCONNECT and other BR* job to be execute on the Central Instance instead of Application Servers – you can check all the job log for these BR* jobs from SM37. Fill in the job name as DBA*, leave the user to * and execute.
2. Check the owner, authorization and permission related of BRTOOLS via SAP Note 113747.
