Find Whether Backup Taken Consistent Or Not

Mar 22, 2011

i am given a database to recover. The person who gave me the database says that he has taken a full hot backup of the database on 19th march and i was also given the archives of the incremental backups until 21march now how can i check if the backup he has taken is consistent or not? after unzipping the available archivelogfiles on and after 19th(THE DATE on which full backup was taken) i tried to open the database using

>startup mount

>recover database using backup controlfile until cancel;

here i got an error and i found out that the archive log files after 13 march are missing.i queried select * from v$log and found that the last log was on 13 March. is this the correct way to say that, since this returned 13 MARCH the database is taken full backup on 13 March itself?

but the person who has taken full backup is saying that he has taken the full backup on 19th march.

how can i confirm whether the full backup taken on 19th was not consistent concretely? are there any other ways to find whether a backup taken is consistent or not i am not using RMAN backup i want to know the procedure when i have to do it manually

Performance Tuning :: How To Reduce Consistent Gets Of SQL

Jun 27, 2011

How can I reduce the consistent gets of the sql:

select b.OFFER_ID,
b.OFFER_CODE,
b.OFFER_NAME,
b.OFFER_COMMENTS,
b.BAND_ID,
b.CAN_BE_BUY_ALONE,
b.PRICING_PLAN_ID,
b.PRIORITY,
b.STATE,
[code]...

I have already added the indexes for the outer sql to reduce the cost from 374 to 150. But the the consistent gets seems not reduce that much. I notice that the function will cost 6 consistents gets per execution. It seems it not very high. But if this function goes with the sql, it will cost a very high consistent gets, if I remove this function, the sql only cost 1903 consistents gets.

So what I am thinking there should be two ways to reduce the consistent gets..The first one is reduce the recursive call of the sql. The second is reduce the consistent gets of the function. (but it seems that the consistent gets in this function is very low, only 6.)

Server Utilities :: Exporting Schema Using Consistent Parameter

I taking export using consistent parameter. Theoretically i can understand . practically i couldn't understand how it works.

for ex

I am updating tab1 table under sams user. table having one lakh records.
while updating the query using consistent=y and consistent=n. i mean

exp sams/sams file=cons.dmp owner=sams consistent=y
exp sams/sams file=cons2.dmp owner=sams consistent=n

then both files imported to separate user(sam ,san).
Updated info not visible in san and sam user.

I want to know practically how it works. I need perfect example. while using consistent=y and consistent=n

Oracle / EMC - Snap View Snapshots And Consistent Sessions

Nov 22, 2010

I have some questions about Oracle + EMC shared storage. I have Oracle 11gR1 RAC (2nodes) + ASM environment with shared shorage EMC Clariion AX4.

The database is running no archivelog mode. I'd like to implement point-in-time recovery using Snap View snapshots.

Currently my AX4 platform has the following LUNS:

LUN1 - registry 1
LUN2 - registry 2
LUN3 - vote 1
LUN4 - vote 2
LUN5 - vote 3
LUN6 - ASM - DISKGROUP DATA DISK DATA01 (actual db datafiles)
LUN7 - ASM - DISKGROUP DATA DISK DATA02 (actual db datafiles)

Using source LUNs in consistent session will take sync snapshots of all the LUNs working against my database. Once something happens with database, the LUNs can be returned to specific point in time when snapshot consistent session was taken and I'm expecting the database will up and continue to work.

Questions:

1. Is my approach correct at all? (The database is running noarchivelog mode, not dealing with hot backups. The recovery point in time implemented purely via EMC snapshot consistent sessions.)
2. The AX4 platform has a limit 8 source LUNs in session. If I understand it correctly, I can't place more than 8 LUNs in session. What will be the workaround if my database will occupy more than 8 LUNs, I'd like to take their consistent snapshot; for example:

LUN1 - registry 1
LUN2 - registry 2
LUN3 - vote 1
LUN4 - vote 2
LUN5 - vote 3
LUN6 - ASM - DISKGROUP DATA DISK DATA01 (actual db datafiles)
LUN7 - ASM - DISKGROUP DATA DISK DATA02 (actual db datafiles)
LUN8 - ASM - DISKGROUP DATA DISK DATA03 (actual db datafiles)
LUN9 - ASM - DISKGROUP DATA DISK DATA04 (actual db datafiles)

PL/SQL :: High Consistent Reads / Cannot Replicate In Test Environment

Feb 8, 2013

I am having performance issues on a query in a production environment that I cannot replicate in our test environment. Our test environment is an import of production. Version information is:

Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bi
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
CORE     10.2.0.3.0     Production
TNS for Solaris: Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.3.0 - ProductionWhen I run the query in test, I get the following results using TKPROF
[code]....

Misses in library cache during parse: 1
Optimizer mode: ALL_ROWSThis performance problem started a few weeks ago and the problem seems to be in the high number of consistent reads during fetch. The DBA tried restarting the instance and gathering fresh stats on the tables but that has not made a difference. Now he wants to export the tables, drop the schema and re-import.

select APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST_FROM_QUERY(1, 1, 'select ''Jan'' d, 1 r from dual union select ''Feb'' d, 2 r from dual') month_id

from dual I get the error:report error:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: associative array shape is not consistent with session parametersWhen I run that query in SQL Developer I get this:

<select name="f01" ><option value="%null%">%</option><option value="1" selected="selected">1</option></select>It

works but returns an incorrect result, there is no list.When I run that query in SQL Workshop on apex.oracle.com I get this:

<select name="f01" ><option value="%null%">%</option><option value="2" >Feb</option><option value="1" selected="selected">Jan</option></select>

which is correct.I tried changing NLS_COMP parameter from Linguistic to Binary and changing NLS_SORT to BINARY_CI but that did not make a difference. This seems like a rare problem and generally related to installation but it has me stopped dead in my tracks.

Server Administration :: Can Oracle Always Guarantee Data Consistent In Distributed Transaction

Mar 31, 2013

I have read almost all docs about distributed transaction on tahihi.oracle.com website,But I can find a statment about this:

Can Oracle always guarrantee the data consistent in a distributed transaction?

For example,there is a distributed transaction on node a,node b and nod c.node b and node c informed node a they were prepared,so node a committed,and inform node b and node c commit.then node b committed and feedback,but network on node c broken at this point,So node a can't not get feedback from node c,but node a and node b has been committed, so what will Oracle do in this condition?

If node c rollback the data on local node, consistent in this distributed transaction was failed ,yes?

Server Administration :: Find Or Set New Oracle Instance Name On Backup Server

Sep 22, 2010

We performed image copy of production Oracle server (OS and instances) to a backup server. After a few weeks, we try to restore a latest Oracle database backup from production server to backup server. As we know, Oracle instance must be unique on the network.

Even we log on to backup server and bring up the instance, I think that still point to production instance since all init file, TNSNAMES.ora and listener file are still same. If we restore the database, we will end up bring down the production instance and restore on top of productions. How to change instance name on backup server including TNSNAMES, sqlnet, listener files in order for us to restore Oracle database from production to backup server?

Export/Import/SQL Loader :: Export Consistent Parameter

Feb 24, 2013

When we set Consistent parameter as yes during export, we get a consistent dump of the database/ schema from the point it was taken by setting the transaction Read only.

So let say we are exporting a table TAB_1 and at the same time a different user updates one of the row of this table and then another user updated this row again so and so forth. So from where do export gets the image of this row which was present at the point in time when the export was initiated in the first place. Is it the Undo?

Backup & Recovery :: 2 Separate RMAN Backup One Backup Is Of Only Datafile

Jan 24, 2011

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)

Backup & Recovery :: RMAN Duplicate Set Until Time Using Wrong Backup Piece Name To Restore?

Feb 26, 2012

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?

Backup & Recovery :: ORA-19870 / Error Reading Backup Piece During Database Cloning

Mar 15, 2011

I am trying to clone a database on another server with different direcory structure. So that path on the source db server are /u04 whereas on on target db server it would be /u03.

Since this I am testing it on small database initially I have kept all datafiles, backup and archivelogs at /u04 and /u03 on the source and target db servers respectively Now I have copied the backups from source db server to target and since path is changed, I cataloged it

However during restore I am getting

Backup & Recovery :: Backing Up / Restoring Oracle Database Via Entire Backup Of Server

Aug 7, 2012

I've read a lot about the different types of backup available with Oracle (hot and cold backup). However, I was thinking of a different way of performing this task. I'm currently using Windows Server 2008 R2 and Oracle 11g Standard Edition. I'd like to schedule an entire backup of my server via the utility "Windows Server Backup" (available for free).That way, I could recover my entire server with all the programs and files in case the latter crashes.I'm wondering if this solution could be used as a way of backing up (and recovering) the Oracle database. Should I still set up a regular hot backup with the Archivelog mode enabled in case some operations/transactions were being done at the time of the crash (for the data integrity)?
