Backup & Recovery :: WARNING / Archived Log Not Deleted
Jan 23, 2012
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.
rman target / nocatalog <<EOT
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK clear ;
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE TAPE clear ;
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' clear ;
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO recovery window of 14 days;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;

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 ran the Full database backup as,
RUN {ALLOCATE CHANNEL CH0 TYPE 'sbt_tape';
BACKUP DATABASE FORCE PLUS ARCHIVELOG FORCE NOT BACKED UP DELETE INPUT;
RELEASE CHANNEL CH0;
}
Then I ran the restore, it failed with Quote:RMAN-06054: media recovery requesting unknown archived log....
When I backup archivelogs and choose to delete the input, it does not delete the multiplexed copy, but the specific file being backed up.So, ideally it should find it in Flah Area or at least in the backed up pieces which are there with it.Still why is it failing?
Also, in recovery, it is deleting the archived log after applying, RMAN does this if we use recover... delete archivelog command.I am using only RECOVER, still in output I can see RMAN deleting the log after it has applied it. WHY?

I see following warning message in alert log file.
Quote:WARNING: OMF is enabled on this database. Creating a physical standby controlfile, when OMF is enabled on the primary database, requires manual RMAN intervention to resolve OMF datafile pathnames.
NOTE: Please refer to the RMAN documentation for procedures describing how to manually resolve OMF datafile pathnames.
Is it just an information or something like warning message we need to look into it.

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.

I was learning some recovery part in my home laptop. Database is in Archivelog, flashback mode. All of sudden, i deleted it from OS level with out taking backup of it.
When i tried to open database, it failed to start. Database is in mount mode.while trying to open, it gives message -
ORA-01157: cannot identify/lock data file 1 - see DBWR trace file
ORA-01110: data file 1: 'F:ORACLEPRODUCT10.2.0ORADATADBSYSTEM01.DBF'
I tried to create on file named "UNDOTBS01.DBF" but oracle is not recognizing it.

I've got a legacy SAP system with oracle 8i on Tru64. No changes at all are made but for legal reasons we have to keep it up and running.
we currently do a full backup monthly by shutting down oracle and doing a backup of all the files to tape and that takes around 12 hours.
If I stop doing the full backup and I only backup the control file and the archived redo log files every month and I had to restore the full database years from now, would I be able to restore the database using the last full monthly backup and use the latest control file and archived redo log files?

I am making incremental backups via RMAN, the backups are staying at disk. And the infrastructure team will copy this files backups to tape. And they want delete the files that will staying in disk via RMAN. Until now it's ok.
But and if I need of backups that stay on tape, it's possible make a recovery of deleted files by rman.

Assuming you have a 9i database . where you have it enabled in archive mode , yet constantly deleting the archived redo logs , due to space constraints .
Will you be able to perform a full level 0 backup , and the following incremental backups , in the absence of the archived redo logs ? And are these incremental backups enough to recover the database or particular data files , to the point of the backup itself at least ?

URL....I'm practicing for the OCP test and one of the questions is that there is a backup from yesterday and the last archived logs are from the day before yesterday not mentioned if it's cold or hot backup.
If its a cold backup - cant we recover it? is it a must to have the archived redo logs also when recovering a cold backup? That sounds not logical since those logs are made only for a hot backup. URL.....

A full, online backup (database, archived redo logs, and control file autobackup) is done with rman ("nocatalog", Oracle 9i on AIX 5.2) daily. A media manger is not in use, so the backup is written to disk, then written to tape using an operating system utility. There is room on disk for two full backups, so "redundancy = 1" and obsolete backup sets are deleted to free up space immediately before running the next backup. If the backup(s) on disk are lost and the tapes containing these backups are lost, will it be possible to restore a tape containing older "deleted" backups (using an operating system utility) and catalog each backup piece in the current control file? In other words, can backups considered "deleted" in the control file be reintroduced if they're available on tape?

Oracle 11G...After creating a new datafile, it was accidentally deleted at OS level (AIX).Because it was new there are no backups of it.Now tablespace thinks there are 3 datafiles in it, but one of them is missing.
Is it possible to recreate an empty data file on-the-fly?It has let me set the datafile to offline, but wouldnt let me do anything else.
Now my backups are failing as it recognises :"the status of database file is RECOVER".

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 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.
