Backup & Recovery :: Obsolete Backup Not Getting Deleted?
May 16, 2013
note in our database we changed RMAN backup to redundancy 7.
RMAN> show all;
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 7;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP OFF; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION FOR DATABASE OFF; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM 'AES128'; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/snapcf_mscmada.f'; # default
Also we have scheduled in our dailly backup to delete obsolete backup means to delete backup which completed more that 7 times, but when we check our backup still in our disk for 1 Month.Note we have scheduled to delete obsolete backup dailly.

Environment: 2 Node Oracle(10.2.0.4.0) RAC on Aix 6.1.
Backups using RMAN utility.Our system is configured to take backups on Tape library using TSM server.
We take incremental level 1 backup on all days and Level 0 backup on Wednesday.We would like to keep the RMAN retention period of 14 days.I delete the backups that are 7 days old from the disk to save space and 14 days older backup from Tape.
I am getting below error in my RMAN backup logfiles.Also attached
RMAN-06207: WARNING: 147 objects could not be deleted for DISK channel(s) due
RMAN-06208: to mismatched status. Use CROSSCHECK command to fix status
RMAN-06210: List of Mismatched objects
RMAN-06211: ==========================
RMAN-06212: Object Type Filename/Handle
RMAN-06213: --------------- ---------------------------------------------------
The configuration of RMAN is:
RMAN> show all;
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 14 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO 'SBT_TAPE';
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
[code].....
How to avoid this error ? Can we set "Retention period" as 14 days in RMAN level and delete the backups in disk which is older than 7 days?Should the deletion of tape backup be handled in TSM level ?

I have a policy running every night and it makes:
- level 0 for datafiles not backed up,
- level 1 for datafile not backed up since 'sysdate-1' then another policy makes:
- level 0 when the datafiles become read only
The recovery windows is set to 1 day.
In the following situation:
RMAN> list backup of datafile 394;
List of Backup Sets
===================
BS Key Type LV Size Device Type Elapsed Time Completion Time
------- ---- -- ---------- ----------- ------------ ---------------
12721 Incr 0 13.25M SBT_TAPE 00:01:13 25-MAY-11

Handle: bk_13201_1_752082473 Media: A00003
[code]....
I expect that the first L0 backup is going to become obsolete, but even if I run crosscheck, it never become obsolete.

I have problem on using "delete obsolete" in RMAN.
First, let describe my backup configuration.
1. Full backup every Monday (17-Oct, 10-Oct, 3-Oct, 26-Sep)
2. Incremental backup for other days
3. Enable autobackup of control file
4. Backup archive log every day
5. RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 30 DAYS
6. Execute "Delete obsolete" every day
7. control file is used instead of catalog
The results observed:
1. Backup of control files older than 30 days will be deleted
2. Backup of archive log files older than 30 days will be deleted.
3. Backup of datafiles older than ~14 days but before 30 days are also DELETED.
In my example, the backup of datafiles created at 26-Sep is deleted at 16-Oct.
I tried "restore database validate until time "sysdate-22"" at 17-Oct. And RMAN reported "datafile xx will be created automatically during restore operation". It seems that RMAN failed to do restoration up to 22 days ago. The retention policy I set seems not effective on datafile backups.
I checked view v$backup_set and the "Keep" is "No" and "Keep until" is empty.
The only thing I can think of, is the settings of "CONTROL_FILE_RECORD_KEEP_TIME". It is marked "7" in the Oracle, which is less than the retention. But I suppose this only causes the backup not deleted, but NOT be deleted earlier.

We observed that our RMAN backup was taking more time to complete. CROSSCHECK is the main culprit as because of having data in the catalog for more than 3 years.
So in the part of script we added delte obsolete recovery windoe of 14 days. (Redundancey 1).
Here the problem is we are getting error as
RMAN-03002 - failure of delete command
RMAN-06091 - NO channel allocated for maintenance (of an appropriate type).
Reason: Till 2 years back the backup was stored in tape and after that it got changed to disk. So allocating channel disk to delete obsolet is not working. How we can over come this.
We tried like allocating channel tape sbt_type. It got failed as no media manager information configured. We dont have that information.
How we can overcome this.

I have a problem in running delete obsolete or report obsolete using rman. Although the retention policy is set to "CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 60 DAYS;", when running delete obsolete or report obsolete it deletes or returns all the backupsets till sysdate. What should I do to solve this issue?

I ran into the message RMAN-08138: WARNING: archived log not deleted - must create more backups during a backup. From what I understand this is caused when logs are removed that are needed for recovery.

I have 2 seperate rman backup one backup is of only datafile ,spfile and controlfile which i am able to restore and recover without any problem say bkp1 taken at 10 am
other set of backup is of only archive log files of same day but later time than datafile backup say bkp2 taken at 8pm...if i restore and recover bkp1 and try to restore bkp2 it gives error datafile exist (possibly due to fact both backup have control file)
if i just restore bkp1 and try to restore bkp2 so that i can do one recover at time
it gives error datafile permission issue (possibly due to fact both backup have control file)
I want to restore database upto 8pm time how can i use both bkp1 and bkp2 to do it(restore datafiles and apply all archive logs on it)

We are trying to restore a database on the different server using RAM incremental level 0 and 1 backups. We have weekly Incremental level 0 backups along with incremental backups on daily basis. During recovery of Incremental level 0 backup, RMAN is expecting/looking for Incremental Level 0 backup of prior week as well. Is this the usual process for RMAN to look for prior level 0 backup though we need to restore from the current level 0 backup and roll forward by a week with subsequent Level 1 backup.?
We intend to restore from the Level 0 of 1/16 and roll forward with daily incrementals till 1/22. RMAN is expecting level 0 backupsets from 1/9 backup as well and keep failing since those backups are not available. quick inputs since we are in middle of recovery and trying to resolve if this is even doable.

We are doing RMAN Duplicate set until time to refresh daily our test database for our developers and it taking long time to finish. We noticed on the restore log that RMAN was using a day old old backup pieces to refresh the test database and don't immediately use the latest backup pieces instead.
For additional details here's the rman duplicate command we are using which we run daily(mon-sat) at 4am once daily full backup on production completed.
RMAN Duplicate commands:
run
{
set until time "to_date(to_char(sysdate,'Mon DD YYYY') || ' 04:00:00', 'Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";
allocate auxiliary channel ch1 type disk;
duplicate target database to testdb;
}
exit
Is there a way on how to let RMAN use the latest backup pieces instead?

I am trying to clone a database on another server with different direcory structure. So that path on the source db server are /u04 whereas on on target db server it would be /u03.
Since this I am testing it on small database initially I have kept all datafiles, backup and archivelogs at /u04 and /u03 on the source and target db servers respectively Now I have copied the backups from source db server to target and since path is changed, I cataloged it
However during restore I am getting

I've read a lot about the different types of backup available with Oracle (hot and cold backup). However, I was thinking of a different way of performing this task. I'm currently using Windows Server 2008 R2 and Oracle 11g Standard Edition. I'd like to schedule an entire backup of my server via the utility "Windows Server Backup" (available for free).That way, I could recover my entire server with all the programs and files in case the latter crashes.I'm wondering if this solution could be used as a way of backing up (and recovering) the Oracle database. Should I still set up a regular hot backup with the Archivelog mode enabled in case some operations/transactions were being done at the time of the crash (for the data integrity)?

Suppose I take a multi stream backup, say 3 streams.
So if a control file is backed up in say backup set 1, so is the whole control file is backed up in one backup piece or it may span multiple pieces?
A backup set may have multiple backup pieces.
