RMAN :: Restore Spfile From Non-default Location In ASM
Oct 24, 2013
Database: 11gEBS: 12.1.3O/S: Solaris Sparc 64 bits
Problem Description: Cloning from Source instance A to target instance B and both are in ASM instances.RMAN backup in source instance A is completed, which has spfile configured in non-default location in ASM for example,see belowASMCMD
[+ASMDG003/TEST1 > ls -ltType Redund Striped Time Sys Name Y TEMPFILE/ Y ONLINELOG/ Y DATAFILE/ Y CONTROLFILE/ N spfiletest1.ora => +ASMDG003/TEST1/PARAMETERFILE/SPFILE.747.856347
Also, there is no SPFILE in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs for the TEST1 source instance. INITTEST1.ora file has the following entry:
cat INITTEST1. oraspfile='+ ASMD G003 /TEST1/spfileTEST1.ora'
Question: In the target instance to be cloned from RMAN backup fro source instance TEST1, on performing ' restore spfile from autobackup 'location';Will the spfile be restored in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs in the target instance TEST2?

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.
Oracle 10g R2 on Server 2003.
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
[code].........
The problem is here. I connect to RMAN from standby
rman nocatalog
connect target sys/password@ DB1
connect auxiliary /
run{
set until scn xxx;
duplicate target database for standby dorecover;
}
I receive an error message saying that it cannot find the file location of the backups that its trying to find. I see in the error that it tries to look locally for
E:FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA DB1 BACKUPSET2013_02_12), however the actual location is (E:FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA STBY1 BACKUPSET2013_02_12)
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. My assumption is that i have made an error in the pfile. However i cannot see any issues there. Some things that i have changed in the pfile for standby:
*.db_file_name_convert='DB1','STBY1'
*.db_name='DB1'
*.db_recovery_file_dest='E:FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA'
*.db_unique_name='STBY1'

I need to restore entire database(sp+control+datafile) to new host.I have started the instance with nomount( and it has created a dummy parameter file).Now, I need to fire the command to restore spfile.
RUN
{
ALLOCATE CHANNEL c1 DEVICE TYPE sbt PARMS='...';
RESTORE SPFILE TO PFILE '?/oradata/test/inittrgta.ora' FROM AUTOBACKUP;
SHUTDOWN ABORT;
}
My questions:-
1.How will RMAN find the location of backupset(Since there is controlfile for neither target or catalog database)?
2.How does RMAN reache the backupset in case of a)tape b)disk?

I need to take RMAN full backup by every Sunday night and Wednesday night . I have the netbackup script which will take the backup to media.
Question is:1. We have 15 - backup scripts for 15 DB in that server , so if i configure crontab for backup do i need to give all 15 scripts one by one or (*) will work . ie) 00 20 * * 3,7 /app/oracle/rman/scripts/hot_db_<sid>.sh
instead of this if i give : 00 20 * * 3,7 /app/oracle/rman/scripts/hot_db_*.sh then it will works fine or not ? 2.
Already my backup will create .output file in the same location , do i need to give output file location in crontab using ( > ) ? 3.
Is the above crontab timing is correct ? (3,7) for Wednesday and Sunday 8pm? so Sunday is 0(zero) or 7 ?

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:

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
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 PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # 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?

I have to test a hot rman backup on testing environment and I have some doubts.
STAGE
Server 1
production database (linux)
backup folder on cifs share windows server
Server 2
testing database (linux)
First I installed linux on same network, I gave it access to cifs backup resource, then I installed the same database version than production environment, then I create a typical database with only same database production name. Also the Linux partitions between linux servers are different.
What oracle procedure must I apply?

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.

I want to restore my database from server x to server y.
The control files on server x are named [$ORACLE_SID]_control01.ctl and [$ORACLE_SID]_control02.ctl.
We have an auto backup of the control files.
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.
ERROR at line 1:
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?

Version : 11.2 on Solaris, AIX
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 ?
