Backup & Recovery :: Standby Clone Failure?
Mar 26, 2012
I have run a standby clone that terminated with error due to few missing LV-s. I removed all LV-s for the clone, recreated them including the missing ones. I ran the clone again,but it skips the files that were successfuly duplicated in the previous clone request that failed. I need to be able to start the clone all over again, but RMAN does persistantly skip duplicating the datafiles that were successfuly processed in the first atempt.
How to ignore the RESUME option so that the clone process would start from the beginning? Where does RMAN keep the info about the successfuly duplicated datafiles in clone standby process? I have tried few RMAN tables , but no luck.

My management is asking me to find the best way to migrate our 3.3 TB data warehouse to a new server. I currently use RMAN to back up the database. This is done offline on Sundays, and it takes about 9 hours, compressed backups to disk. Archived log backups are done online, not in conjuction with the db backup.
I have read a number of documents detailing step to use OEM Db Control (aka dbconsole) to clone the database to the new server.
I have a few questions:
1. I need to clone the Oracle SW first, as our current install has patches, so it should take less time.
2. Do you think just restoring from the last RMAN backup and doing recovery would be faster than cloning?
3. On the new server, I have assumed that the root user (not me) would have to pre-create the OFA structure, e.g.; we have some mount points like /f01/oracle/DBNAME or /g01/oracle/DBNAME. I cannot imagine that the Db control Gui or Rman could create that structure on the target server. Is that correct?
4. There seems to be an attitude in my shop that the storage array mount points and OFA would not have to be identical on the target server. Any opinions?
Back in 1995, I successfully manually cloned a database to a new server in an HP environment, but it was only about 70G!!

I am looking to create a DDL-only clone of a 2TB database. The purpose of this clone is to provide developers a preprod-like environment where they can test the syntax of their code changes before deploying to production. The database will reside on a seperate, small server.
As I only need the structure of the objects and not the data, my first port of call was EXP using rows=n. However, when I IMP to an indexfile I see that the initial extents have been defined on the tables (in some cases 1GB!). As stated my clone environment is small, so I would be looking to have these set at 1mb. how I can achieve this? I will want to be able to automate the cloning of the database as much as possible. Perhaps there's some other way other than EXP/IMP?

multiple disk failure, the database was open at the time.We have managed to recover the data from the disk and have put it on another disk.We have got a new server with oracle 9 running.
A blank database has been created.I have copied the control files and redo files onto the new server and left the datafiles , (.dbf,.ora) on a seperate external disk F drive (this is because the original database resided on F drive)I can mount the database , however when I try to open it I get the following

I have a database for which I use RMAN for backup & recovery. The database is in archivelog mode. Online redo log files are multiplexed and I have more than one destinations for archive logs. If, due to a disk crash, all data files and redo log files are gone - and I have archive logs, one member of each redo log group and a full database backup available, I can recover till the last archived log. But I want to ask that what about the transactions which were not archived at the time of media failure? How can I recover committed transactions which were not archived at the time of crash, and I have a mirrored copy of log group which was current at the time of failure?

I am trying to create a clone database using hot backup of a database .
STEPS THAT I FOLLOWED
------------------------------------
LET ----- >CURRENT_DB NAME=DEV
CLONE DATABASE NAME=DEVCLONE
steps PERFORMED FORM DEV DB
-----------------------------------------------
- put the database in backup mode using 'alter database begin backup'
- copy all the data files to a different folder
- during copy i have performed some operations on the DB (creating users, tables, dmls etc...)
- in between copying i also performed log switch
- after completion of copy , "alter database end backup"
- created a backup control file in a human readable format (alter database backup controlfile to trace as ........)
steps performed for clone DB side ((DEVCLONE)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
- created a parameter file for the database .
- modified the backup control file so that it will point to the location of copied destination of datafiles
- set the ORACLE_SID
- then 'sqlplus / as sysdba
- starup nomount
- run the modified control file ( created a control file for the clone database)
- recover the database using "recover database using backup controlfile"
I have provided the archive files that it was asking for (archive logs that has been generated in DEV DB)
then i canceled the recovery by typing "cancel"
- recover database using backup controlfile until cancel;
then typed "cancel"
- then try to open the database with open resetlogs but it showed below error
alter database open resetlogs
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01195: online backup of file 1 needs more recovery to be consistent

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.

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.

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)

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.
