i have changed the log_archive_dest_1 to another drive (suppose D ) than Oracle installed disk
created tables in scott ,
alter system switch logfile;
so archive log was der in the new destination i delete that archivelog from D and pasted to drive E ( cut paste ) start rman , crosschecked archivelogs Now , i want to tell Rman that recover that archivelog from E and then recover

We want to keep the Guaranteed restore point for week but unfortunately we don't have enough flash space in the server. Is it possible to backup the flashback log(restore point logs) through rman and send bkp file to tape? how to restore the database in new server until Guaranteed restore point.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to do a once off backup of an oracle database. I have followed instructions to do standard backups and when actually running the RMAN backup I got a ORA-19602: cannot backup or copy active file in NOARCHIVELOG mode.
No problem: I read that you need to execute the following commands in RMAN to ensure a clean shutdown/startup of the database to get past this problem: run {shutdown immediate;startup mount, etc } ...problem is - this code shuts down the database and then I cannot restart it using startup mount as it starts with this TNS listener errors. So I have restart through services but then I get the NOARCHIVELOG error cropping up again.
I'm getting quite frustrated with this. I don't need an archive/redo log - I just need the current state (snapshot) of the database with all the datafiles / procedures/functions in it...a once off - but I can't seem to get this working.
We have EM (Cloud 12c) initiated scheduled backup jobs that perform (all below are online backups, obviously archivelog mode)
- level 0 Incremental 3AM on Sunday - with options backup all archive logs, delete input, delete obsolete
- level 1 Incremental (non cumulative) 3AM every other day - same options
Recovery window is set to 3 days, other options below:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK BACKUP TYPE TO COMPRESSED BACKUPSET PARALLELISM 2;
[code]....
Everything appears to be working normally (archive logs are being backed up and once they are the archive logs themselves are being deleted from the FRA), but I'm having some trouble understanding the behavior of the delete obsolete.
With a recovery window of 3 days, on Monday at 11AM my expectation would be that I would find in backups the following:
- level 0s from day before (Sunday) and the previous Sunday (8 days prior)
- all level 1s from previous Sunday on (so Mon-Sat and this morning)
- archivelog backups from Friday until this morning
What I'm not understanding is that I'm seeing archivelog backups from last Monday, Tuesday, etc. - i would have thought these would have gone obsolete based on my recovery window, yet when I run report obsolete in RMAN nothing is showing up.
I have a standby database in which I am backing up my database from. I also backup my archivelogs on my primary site as well as the control file. My issue is that I cannot find the correct RMAN command that will allow me to delete the actual backupsets from disk after say 7 days.
I know how to delete automatically the actual archivelog files, but not how to only have 7 days of archivelog backupsets available at any one given time.
May I know what is the command for rman to backup and delete single archive log?
View 15 Replies View RelatedOracle 10gR2 on 64-bit RHEL.Backup Strategy:There will be a level-0 backup of the database every Sunday and level-1 every weekday.Archivelogs will be backed up up every 30 minutes.
Q: How can I delete ALL the archivelog backups that were taken that day (every 30 minutes) right after successful completion of level-0 or level-1 backup?
I want to delete them because they may not be of any use after the level-0 or level-1 backup (am I right)?
We have two Windows 2008 VMs with Oracle 11G configured as primary and standby.This configuration has been defined by a partner who is no longer working for us.We have broken the correct application of the redo log on the standby when we have not correctly restored some snapshots on those two VMs.I would like to create a new Oracle server that will become the new standby. For that, I need too :
- Display the full dataguard configuration to reproduce it on the new server
- Stop (delete ?) the configuration on the primary server.
We also have the current problem that RMAN refuses to delete old archivelog since they have not been applied to the standby.

The level 0 does delete the archive logs (because of the delete input). Each backupset has two copies of the archive logs (which is what I want), and I expected the logs to be deleted after being backed up 2 days (each day is twice, 2 days = 4 times). But it's not deleting the logs, even after 6 runs.

I have some problem while restore the database in separate environment.
This My backup policy and retention
I have monthly full database backup on march the backup started 2nd march 15:31 and completed at 03 march 11:12 AM retention period 3 years
We have ADHOC ARCHIVE backup which will run for certain conditions if the file system threshold reach 80%
In between the monthly backup the ADHOC ARCHIVE jobs has executed from 03Mar2011 00:00 to 03Mar2011 05:14 this retention period is 30 days
So while restore the database with monthly backup i can't able to recover the the datafiles due to adhoc archive files are missing.
We are cloning a database, but using the restore method ( version 11.1.0.7). The source and destination path are different. As we are using the source controlfile, before restoration SET new name inside the run block is the way to change the path.
I was just wondering, if there is any other way to do it. Because, we have around 1000 datafiles, and dont want write everything in the run block. Also, this goes from Non-ASM to ASM. I tried DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT, but it seems to be not working.
run
{
Set newname for datafile 1 to '+DATA_DG1';
Set newname for datafile 2 to '+DATA_DG1';
Set newname for datafile 3 to '+DATA_DG1';
Set newname for datafile 4 to '+DATA_DG1';
restore database;
switch datafile all;
}
create a backupset, tag it, and restore it. You could say that what I'm trying to achieve is analogous to a flashback, but rather than specifying a timestamp, I'd like to simply restore the entire db to exactly what was there when the tagged backup was taken.Here is the RMAN script I am using for the backup procedure:
run {
#allocate channels
#ALLOCATE CHANNEL FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK;
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP MOUNT;
#backup database
BACKUP FULL DATABASE TAG='latest' PLUS ARCHIVELOG TAG='latest' DELETE INPUT;
[code]....
I'd like to take these backups in online mode, and I've tried taking both a consistent and inconsistent backup modifying the above script.Additionally, I'm using the following restore script to try to revert the database to the state when the backup set was taken (and am testing the data being restored by deleting some data entries after taking the backup):
run {
#shutdown db (should be done already)
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
#mount db
STARTUP NOMOUNT;
#show RMAN settings
SHOW ALL;
[code]...
When performing the restore, I dont see the data backed up, rather I see the latest data still in the database. why the state of the db is not getting reverted to the backupset with tag='latest'.Finally, here below I've listed the rman settings for reference:
RMAN> show all;
RMAN configuration parameters for database with db_unique_name ### are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 1; # default
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default

I am in process of restoring database for a standby.When I am restoring datafiles, it says it is restoring to an original location (same as primary database).
restoring datafile 00242 to +MYDB_DATADG/mydb/datafile/data_05.474.805989155 but when I checked with asmcmd utility, it is actually another path/filename. Only same thing is the diskgroup name.
So the file would be
-> +MYDB_DATADG/mydb_stby/datafile/data_05.281.812429111
How do I force rman to restore to the same exact location as my primary database?

We have Oracle 10.2.0.3 database installed on Itanium server.
1. One day we found some packages got invalid & not compiling at all with error – ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [4097], [], [], [], [], [], [], [].
2. Then we successfully restored the database from old RMAN backup of previous date that caused this error.
3. After 2 days again we found the same error in alert_prd log - ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [4097], [], [], [], [], [], [], [] ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 19089 ], [], [], [], [], [], [], []
4. Then for testing we exported database using exp command & found 3 tables are not exporting because of data block corruption issue.
5. Then we truncated the data from all 3 tables and then able to export successfully.
6. After all this we manually run SYS.DMS_STATS job but found same error logged in prd_alert log.
This looks like, still database block corruption issue is there & we are unable to cure it 100% This is a production system & in very critical state now.

When I restore the control files on host y, (from autobackup) the restored controle files have other names: control01.ctl and control02.ctl. After the restore and recover (which goes well) the database does not start correctly.

We are managing a huge amount of data warehouse on oracle 11.2.0.3.0. We need to take backup using rman of some tablespace not the whole database backup.
we need a backup strategy in which we can restore the backup of some tablespace plus oracle instance if any disaster occur.
I have taken backup using rman on test db of system , sysaux , user tablespace then i restore these tablespace successfully and make the remaining tablespace offline , but while open the database it show me below error.
My question is how i backup using rman so that in case of disaster i restore oracle instance plus specific tablespace not full database.

ORA-01152: file 1 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup

On database A we have full backups (not incrementals) every morning at 3:00 AM including archive logs. When I query rman (list backup) I see the full at 3 AM (in two backup pieces, each in its own backup set) as well as the backup piece containing archive logs through 9:00 AM.
Due to a data issue at around 10AM, I attempted to do an incomplete recovery to 8:00 AM (data loss is not a concern) - once this was complete I opened the database with resetlogs.
I subsequently discovered that the data issue had occurred closer to 6:00 AM and I am now trying to restore to 5:00 AM. This is failing with the 'UNTIL TIME IS BEFORE RESETLOGS' error. I read up on incarnations, but my previous incarnation is from November, and when I reset the database to this incarnation and attempt a restore I get datafile 1 (2,3) is not available for restore.
how do I basically just restore the full 3:00 AM backup and apply the archive logs through 5:00 AM? Do I need to do a recover until cancel or something? And should I reset the incarnation?
I have 2 databases. Primary ( DB1 ) and Standby ( STBY1 ). My standby database went kaput, and i have as a result deleted the standby database in order to re-create it from a full primary backup.

I have followed several guides, and at this time i have done the following:
- Configured standby re-do logs on primary
- backed up current controlfile for standby
- backed up database plus archivelog
- configured the tnsnames

The problem is here. I connect to RMAN from standby
rman nocatalog
connect target sys/password@ DB1
connect auxiliary /

I have read that the locations need to be the same, however the instance names are different, and i thought i changed the pfile to accommodate that.

All our production DBs are backed up by some Hitachi tool (apparently it is called ShadowImage) . Apparently they put all the tablespaces in Backup mode and 'take a snap' . Our BAU team says this is faster.
On an event of DB Crash Is it easier to restore, recover from these 'snapshots' ? Are these snapshots much faster than RMAN ?
