Backup & Recovery :: RMAN Full Database Backups
Nov 9, 2011
Environment:
oracle 10.2.0.1.0
Windows XP
I have taken the RMAN Full database backup through the following command.My database is in no archivelog mode.
AT RMAN prompt
Shutdown immediate;
Startup mount;
run
{
allocate channel c01 device type disk format 'd:
man_bkp est_%U';
allocate channel c02 device type disk format 'd:
man_bkp est_%U';
backup full database tag 'full_bkup_test_081111';
backup current controlfile;
backup spfile;
release channel c01;
release channel c02;
}
Now i have deleted my all controlfile and spfile/Pfile from the database.So how can i recover my SPfile and controlfile? i do not have autobackup on of SPfile/Controlfile.

My scenario is: database is in archivelog mode.
I run DLY cold backups including controlfile & archivelogs and keep 3 gens of backups and archivelogs to 3 days also. What is the correct procedure to restore back to an old cold backup. Database is backed up Mon,Tue,Wed on Thur we require to bring database back to Tuesday DLY security.
I have tried:
startup mount
restore database from tag 'DLYTUE'
recover database
( this just rolls forward on all archive logs once it restores datafiles, not getting to point to alter database open resetlogs.)
Next tried to :
recover database archivelog tag 'DLYTUE'
( same outcome )
What is the correct rman procedure including should I remove old archive logs from working OS directory ? Also need to know once I restore back and open database to TUE security how do you tidy up the archive logs and dumps which are no longer require i.e. : weds..
I have read about using the set until time option but how to I get absolute time from when cold backup completed if this is the correct procedure.

RMAN is not removing obsolete backups and now the backup directory is nearly full.Retention policy is 1, however, there are backups more than 6 weeks old still in the backup directory.crosscheck and delete obsolete commands run every night, and I have also run these manually, yet the backup files still remain.It is like RMAN is not aware of their existance.How can I confirm that RMAN does not need them and therefore delete them manually using OS commands.

I have a live server on which Oracle 10g Database is running. We take full RMAN Backups everyday. Now we want to restore the RMAN Backup file from the Live server to another machine (which is going to be a test system). I want to restore the latest RMAN backup on the test machine (which is not on network).
When I copy the RMAN backup set in the flash recovery area of the test machine and then use "list backup", the backup set is not listed. I also tried "crosscheck backup" and then "list backup" but still the backup set does not appear. how can I register the backup set from live server into test machine and then restore it.

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?

is it possible to have a vss snapshot backup on the top of an RMAN backup. Because the link [URL] says that we can have an incremental level 1 backup on the vss snapshot backup.
So I need to know if interoperability between RMAN and VSS exists or not.
Also is it possible to have mixed backups meaning vss snapshot backups and rman backups. Whenever we take snapshot backup, is it updated in the control file?

I am trying to learn about RMAN Incrementally Updated Backups. I created a database on Server A with the parameters and configurations as shown in image attached. I would like to restore full database on Server B (Test DB).The Server B is exactly same in directory structure as the Server A
e.g. ('E:archive','E:incr_backup'). I would like to automate this process so that it updates the Server B on daily basis for R&D purpose.

Can the control file be used to store scripts which are used to perform backups? I know the RMAN recovery catalog can.
Does the SHOW command display detailed reporting on the RMAN catalog contents other than configuration information?

7 of days ago Full backup has been taken to disk due to issues with tape devices.3 days ago tape devices have been fixed and we switched to CommVault managed tape backups. CommVault calls RMAN with following command:
run {
allocate channel ch1 type 'sbt_tape'
PARMS="SBT_LIBRARY=/usr/local/bin/simpana/Base/libobk.so,BLKSIZE=1048576,ENV=(CV_mmsApiVsn=2,CV_channelPar=ch1,ThreadCommandLine=BACKUP -jm 45 -a 2:71 -cl 9 -ins 9 -at 22 -j 294321 -jt 294321:4:1 -bal 1 -rcp 0 -ms 1 -data -ma 89 -cn oraclehost -vm Instance001)"
TRACE 0;
setlimit channel ch1 maxopenfiles 8;
backup
incremental level = 0
filesperset = 32
database
include current controlfile spfile ;
}
exit;
These backups done successfully.Then archivelog backup taken similar way.But when I issue RESTORE DATABASE PREVIEW SUMMARY; RMAN starts with Full backup set, though newer Incremental Level 0 ones are available.Why it does not use these newer ones?

I configured recovery catalog and started Full online backup using EMC Networker. In EMC Networker I set three months policy to keep Backup.I didn't change redundancy.
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 1; # default
My question is, if I need to restore Backup of last 15 days then I can ?.

Just now my database is hang due to the archivelog full. I try to use RMAN to delete the expired one and free space but encounter the error:
RMAN>crosscheck archivelog all;
archive log filename=/geodata/oraclelog/archive_log/ORAGF45/archivelog/2013_06_04/o1_mf_1_1444_8tsxvwc2_.arc recid=1350 stamp=817182450
validation succeeded for archived log
archive log filename=/geodata/oraclelog/archive_log/ORAGF45/archivelog/2013_06_04/o1_mf_1_1445_8ttx2q6j_.arc recid=1351 stamp=817214416
[code].......
So I try to back it up first by using the below command:
RMAN> backup archivelog all;
Starting backup at 04-JUN-13
using channel ORA_DISK_1
channel ORA_DISK_1: starting archive log backupset
channel ORA_DISK_1: specifying archive log(s) in backup set
[code]......
I know that I have to extend the db_recovery_file_dest directory for "limit exceed" error but how can I safely delete the archivelog in order to bring up the database?

I use windows 2003 server, oracle 10.2.0.4.0.My question is related to maintaing a standby database
1. Do we need to take RMAN full backup of standby database on a regular basis? At the moment I dont take backups of standby database.
2. I have FRA on standby database. The archivelogs from primary go to FRA on standby. I delete my archivelogs as follows:
DELETE ARCHIVELOG ALL COMPLETED BEFORE 'SYSDATE-3';
Though the archivelogs are delete there are still empty folders of archivelogs that are not deleted. How to get rid of them automatically.

We are running a 5Tb database backup which takes really a long time to backup and impacts the performance in general during the backup. We got a DataGaurd database in place which we want to utilize to run the RMAN backup on to avoid performance impacts and just use DG database for backup and DR purposes. My Question is if we run the backups on DataGaurd Database, How would a RMAN DG database backup would clear the archive logs from Primary production and from DataGaurd Database during the backup process?

Oracle 10gR2 on 64-bit RHEL.Backup Strategy:There will be a level-0 backup of the database every Sunday and level-1 every weekday.Archivelogs will be backed up up every 30 minutes.
Q: How can I delete ALL the archivelog backups that were taken that day (every 30 minutes) right after successful completion of level-0 or level-1 backup?
I want to delete them because they may not be of any use after the level-0 or level-1 backup (am I right)?

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 done many duplication before in sinlge instance databases using a backup tool and rman catalog. At the moment i was trying to do a RAC database duplication and facing some issues. For this i was doing a testing on my 1-node RAC. Primary and duplicated database is on the same Host and oracle version is 10.2.0.3. I perfomed following steps:
1.Created a DUPL database using DBCA.
2.Created a pfile using spfile.
3.Dropped all the datafiles, controlfiles and redo log files.
4.Started the database in nomount using pfile.
5.Disable cluster related parameters in pfile.
6.Took a full backup of the MAIN database with archivelog on disk.
6.Duplicate the database and it is done successfully.
7.Shutdown the instance and enabled cluster parameters.
8.Start instance using SRVCTL fails with error CRS-0215: Could not start resource 'ora.DUPL.DUPL1.inst'
But if start the instance using sqlplus it comes up nicely. There is not much information in alert log files.
