Due SAP architecture, when the Oracle DB is installed as RAC or ASM, the initORACLE_SID.sap is placed in a different location than ORACLE_HOME.
This is in the SAP documentation:
For installations with Oracle 11g (or higher) RAC or ASM, the profile is located in the directory $SAPDATA_HOME/sapprof.

DP tries to search the file in the ORACLE_HOME:
UNIX systems:ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initORACLE_SID.sap
Windows systems:ORACLE_HOME\database\initORACLE_SID.saphttps://docs.microfocus.com/itom/Data_Protector:2020.05/SAPR3Backup
To solve this, you can create a softlink on ORACLE_HOME to the current initORACLE_SID.sap
ln -s $SAPDATA_HOME/sapprof/initORACLE_SID.sap ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initORACLE_SID.sap
For Windows you can create a direct access link in the corresponding paths.
