We are having 2 DB's on separate servers but both the DB is having same DBID and NAME. Also both the backup is planned to execute from one rman catalog DB.
Will the catalog DB confuse, when we execute backup for both the DB at same.

I would like to know how to create recovery catalog database to acheive rman backups as control file will not keep backup info longer. This is for our production database what are the requirements before doing so and what happens to configure retension policy to recovery window.
Initially plan of taking backup to disk and later moving backups to tape device
How one should know whether RMAN is using target database control file or using separate catalog database. Also what one should do if he dont have catalog users credentials.
i have read from documentation but getting some error.

Backup-Based Duplication Without a Target and a Recovery Catalog Connection?
New to oracle FAQ. I'm interested in oracle, waiting to explore more Technic's in 10g with a proper guidance. Hope i'm in the right place.Here is my question.
I need steps for configuring rman cloning with catalog & without catalog.were in prod db the source is in /u01 & in auxiliary db the client want in /u05. how to do it. here i have recreate control file or not
we have a cluster of two nodes having oracle 11G R2 and another single instance server where RMAN is configured and this is backup server.i have created the service between the the target database and backup server and they are working fine i.e tnsping work fine at both sites.Now i have physical backup scripts written at one of cluster node and scripts run at crontab. The backup include full_backup , archive backup etc.
Now all physical backups work fine that is connecting RMAN and then catalog and then complete the backup but the full_backup do not connect catalog and throw this error that it do not know the SID in the connect descriptor. the tnsping output (from target ) is as followed fedb112 # tnsping bkp

in above scripts " connect catalog rcowner/rcowner@bkp " do not connect while i have other two scripts for incremental backup and archival backup, have the same code but they connect successfully and this one do not
now i run lsnrctl status at backup server , as follows

why it do not connect to RMAN catalog and use control file instead for backup
I want to remove matching dbid's from the rman catalog without compromising te integrity of the catalog. I do however know a single way of removing them and its using the dbid and db_key which in my case are not not unique. The funny thing is they've running normally for a year now.
I am using RMAN with a recovery catalog option on a separate Database. My question is
When we use catalog does RMAN keep the information in Control file of the Target Database as well or only in recovery catalog? I am asking this in case We lost the database which contains the recovery catalog what to do?
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 ?.
How to restore database if rman catalog corrupted and we we dont have bacup of catalog db ..all the backup info are stored in catalog db for prod databases.
The customer wants the RMAN recovery catalog database to be highly available so that none of the RMAN database backup jobs are impacted at the time of taking the database backups. There are are 200+ databases running on OEL, RHEL and Windows. So we planned to host the recovery catalog database on Oracle Active DataGuard 11.2.0.1 Enterprise Edition on RedHat EL 5.8 version on two physical servers.
The Primary Instance will be in one server in the Primary DC and the Standby Instance will be on another server in another DC. Also all the database datafiles are hosted in ASM Diskgroups on SAN (DATA, FRA, REDO, ARCH diskgroups). Are there any specific RPM/patch/OS user custom/specific settings or configurations needed..?
We have production database and standby database in 11g.
Production db server is taking care by different team even I don't have any access of the production server and I am responsible only for standby server. As of now everything is working fine except database backup on standby server because standby server is not register in catalog.
How to register standby server in catalog for RMAN backup?
I need to restore entire database(sp+control+datafile) to new host.I have started the instance with nomount( and it has created a dummy parameter file).Now, I need to fire the command to restore spfile.
RUN { ALLOCATE CHANNEL c1 DEVICE TYPE sbt PARMS='...'; RESTORE SPFILE TO PFILE '?/oradata/test/inittrgta.ora' FROM AUTOBACKUP; SHUTDOWN ABORT; }
My questions:-
1.How will RMAN find the location of backupset(Since there is controlfile for neither target or catalog database)?
2.How does RMAN reache the backupset in case of a)tape b)disk?
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?
I have oracle 10g installed on my system and name of the database is "ORCL" for which I have schedule the incremental backup everyday. Mentioned below are the steps followed

Now I want to restore this backup to some other system with new database. How to do this recovery to some other database on new system.
I have one database which is fully restored from client backup (RMAN). Database was up and running perfectly. By mistake I have deleted one schema/user and its tablespace using drop command. I have RMAN backup so want to restore that schema's datafile from the backup but when I run below statement it throwing error :
run { allocate channel c1 device type disk ; set newname for datafile 45 to '/ora/oradata/JSIP1/data.dbf'; RESTORE datafile 45; switch datafile 45; recover datafile 45; SQL ' alter database datafile 45 online ' ; } RMAN-20201: datafile 45 not found in recovery catalog
or If I go and try to restore the tablespace of that schemas using below block it throws error:
run { allocate channel c1 device type disk ; RESTORE TABLESPACE DATA; RECOVER TABLESPACE DATA; SQL 'ALTER TABLESPACE DATA ONLINE'; } RMAN - 20202 Tablespace not found in the recovery catalog RMAN -06019 could not transalate tablespace name "DATA"
how to restored drop users and tablespace data from the RMAN backup.
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.
I want to duplicate a prod database in to a dev db.I am using catalog database to connect to target and auxiliary datbase.I copied all backupsets to the local disk on Dev env in the correct path.For RMAN duplicate ,does the backuppeices need to be present on PROD filesystem as well or just DEV filesystem or both.
I would like to duplicate to the different server Oracle Database with RMAN. I've configured flash recovery area for Oracle Database. My questions are:
Source Server ( target ) : ORACLE_SID : DB11G AUXILIARY Server (duplicate ): ORACLE_SID : CLONE
1- if backup files (autobackup and backup set)/ Archived Logs are in a different path on the source host (not default FRA Path) then how can I use the DUPLICATE command? BTW, only the flashback logs are in the default location (/u01/app/oracle/fra/flashback). Path: /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/autobackup and /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/backupset.
2 - Do I have to add *_CONVERT parameters for different SID as shown below? e.g. : DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT , LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT.
