Backup & Recovery :: Running RMAN Commands In RUN File To Duplicate A Database
Dec 17, 2012
I have a RUN file within a script to duplicate a database. As part of this RUN file I also run the command configure controlfile autobackup off; as part of this RUN file. However, this command has turned off backup of the control file on the AUXILLARY database (i.e. production) as well as the TARGET database (test). Is this supposed to happen?
My run file is:
rman TARGET sys/XXXX@${DB}-SOURCE AUXILIARY /
RUN {
allocate AUXILIARY channel a1 type disk;
allocate AUXILIARY channel a2 type disk;
allocate AUXILIARY channel a3 type disk;
allocate AUXILIARY channel a4 type disk;
[Code]....

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.

what could be the reason that following 2 (RMAN) commands return different results?
RMAN> list archivelog all completed before 'sysdate-2';
RMAN> list archivelog until time 'SYSDATE-2';

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?

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.

Oracle 10gR2 (base)
Dataguard, no RAC
no ASM
Performing backups on the physical standby via RMAN. We need to restore our test database, and right now it is equivalent to the production. The DUPLICATE command seemed the best bet. We have controlfile and SPFile both on Auto-backup, and the RMAN on a six day retention with weekly 0 level backups and nightly level 1 cumulative backups.
However, when I run the DUPLICATE it chokes being unable to find a current controlfile nor one in backup, even though we have six days worth of supposedly good (validated) backups. We are not using a catalog, rather the DB controlfile.
The solution to this error is reopen the database and try again. however, the physical standby cannot be opened. It is the standby. What if we move the last backup to the primary database, "register" it there, and try this DUPLICATE?
I have seen nothing on this in my searches, and the Oracle documentation does not address this, though it recommends backup from the Physical Standby.
RMAN-05513 is the error code.

1) have taken backup at target side.
2) through SCP, transferred all the file to auxiliary side.
3) Ran the duplicate command at auxiliary side.
After running the command, i got the below error.

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.

We are running 11.2.0.3.2.
In my catalog for the "source" database (rman target db), I have the backupsets for a full database backup ended at Feb. 7, 03:43:37. These are online backups. So, there are archived redo logs being generated while it runs and the following archived redo logs finished at Feb. 7, 04:00:24.
We duplicate databases all the time. So, this is not a new concept for us. The one thing that has changed is that we now back up to disk (using the flashback recovery area) and then later on, initiate a backup to tape. Prior to this go-live, we did all of our backups directly to tape. The catalog does not seem confused. It knows it needs to go to tape because it's beyond the retention for disk backups. The only problem is that it is going to the backup prior to the backupset I want, only for a couple of files.
In the past, when all went directly to tape, we would do a set until time 'Feb. 7, 03:43:37' and it would automatically restore the backupset that finished then and apply archived redo logs as necessary to make a consistent copy. Now, if I use the same model, it's going to a backup set from the prior date for 3 particular files. If I change the time to when the archived redo logs ended their backup, 04:00, it still goes back to the day before, but only for 2 files.
I can list a backup of each specific file and see that the file is in the backupset for which I expect RMAN to pull. How can I figure out a date/time to go back to if not using the method of reviewing the catalog entries and timestamps?

This is what I run

CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 22 DAYS;
sql 'alter system archive log current';

So /dd_oraback is a Data Domain mount. Not sure if that makes any difference or not.

Oracle 10.2.0.5Linux 5I am creating a duplicate database using RMAN based on Oracle's documentation. I was successful up to running the duplicate command.Here is my command:DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE vlab pfile='/<complete path of pfile>'; When I run the command, it tries to read from the backup files on production database - which is on anotehr node.Before then, I had backup piece copied to the node with the duplicate database.I ran this command to catalog the backup piece:catalog start with '/<complete path to backuppiece>'Error: no files to be unknown to the database On the other hand, when I run the command without cataloging the backuppiece, I get this error:

We are using OCI call library to connect to Oracle database through one application. When we try to run this application through valgrind( a memory leak detection tool for linux) then, OCIServerAttach() call is failing to connect to db and it says that "ORA-1034 :Oracle not available"," Oracle instance may be down", etc. However, our oracle instance is running and database is open. When we run our application normally ( not through the tool) then everything is working fine.

I'm trying to write a bat file for the rman backups that can be used for any of our databases. I'm passing variables into the bat file and that is working fine (i.e. oracle_sid, drive letter, oracle_home), my problem is when the rman actually runs and calls the ctl file, the variables aren't being passed thru to that file.

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?
