do I need to cancel manged recovery while taking rman backups on standby. I scanned thru MOS but could find solutions for rman with active DG.
I trying to backup archive logs using rman in standby database. I'm able to backup archive logs using simple command it get's successfully completed. rman > BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ALL When i'm trying to do with keep command it's getting failed.I'm trying to do on physical standby databaseBACKUP ARCHIVELOG ALL KEEP UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE+100' TAG = 'TEST'.
We have production database and standby database in 11g.
Production db server is taking care by different team even I don't have any access of the production server and I am responsible only for standby server. As of now everything is working fine except database backup on standby server because standby server is not register in catalog.
How to register standby server in catalog for RMAN backup?
I have One Production and one logical standby database . Due to tape problem we are unable to take backups of primary . And due to business , we cannot take back up on disk in hot period(Bank database ) .
If i take logical standby database backup(level 0 ) using RMAN , then will i be able to restore it on production dtbs (In case Production down) ? . Logical standby is in sync with primary .
creating the standby database from Active database using RMAN and getting the below issue after i executed the duplicate command.

provide any work arounds to proceed further in creating the standby database.
The script has successfully created on standby db all controlfiles and also has copied 2 data files DATA01.DBF and DATA02.DBF into the correct location. Then the errors above kicked in and stopped the rman dup process.

Now I want to restore this backup to some other system with new database. How to do this recovery to some other database on new system.
I am trying to create the Standby database using RMAN.
I have first created an auxiliary instance followed by the password file for the instance and the registering it it listener.
Below are the parameters of the pfile of the standby database and followed by the command issued at the RMAN prompt.
PFILE parameters [STANDBY] orcl.__db_cache_size=293601280 orcl.__java_pool_size=8388608 orcl.__large_pool_size=8388608 orcl.__oracle_base='F:appdsharma'#ORACLE_BASE set from environment
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?
The customer wants the RMAN recovery catalog database to be highly available so that none of the RMAN database backup jobs are impacted at the time of taking the database backups. There are are 200+ databases running on OEL, RHEL and Windows. So we planned to host the recovery catalog database on Oracle Active DataGuard 11.2.0.1 Enterprise Edition on RedHat EL 5.8 version on two physical servers.
The Primary Instance will be in one server in the Primary DC and the Standby Instance will be on another server in another DC. Also all the database datafiles are hosted in ASM Diskgroups on SAN (DATA, FRA, REDO, ARCH diskgroups). Are there any specific RPM/patch/OS user custom/specific settings or configurations needed..?
I have Oracle database on Oracle 10g R2 with physical as well as logical standby database.
1) Is is necessary to take Physical standby database backup? 2) If 1) yes then Which RMAN backup is preferred?with catalog or default?How to take backup as different location? 3)how to Restore that backup?How to ensure backup is valid?
I tried to clone a 2 node rac database to single instance non rac database using existing backup. I have not used connectivity to target or catalog. rman duplicate finished with below messages:
rman auxiliary sys/******@dbracdup RMAN> duplicate database to dbrac spfile backup location '/oracle/backup'; ... ... Finished recover at 25-JUL-12 Segmentation fault
And the database was in mount stage, and when i tried to open database it failed with below error:
SQL> alter database open; alter database open * ERROR at line 1: ORA-19838: Cannot use this control file to open database .
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.
We have 11gR2 2 node RAC on Linux. ASM and OMF is used for database. The database on it is backed up using RMAN. We want to test the RMAN backup by restoring it to a new database on same server.
I just duplicate my PRODUCTION database to TEST database (11.2.0.1 both) on windows 7.
I just create a backup from PRODUCTION:
RMAN> backup full database format ='C:Usersmy_usermiBBDDflash_recovery_are aTESTdatabase_%U';and controlfile backup:
RMAN> backup current controlfile format='C:Usersmy_usermiBBDDflash_recover y_areaTESTCONTROL_FILE_%U';now i'm trying to restore this backup into TEST with this script:
RMAN CONNECT TARGET / STARTUP NOMOUNT; SET DBID 486238190; #DBID of TEST database RUN
[Code]....
but i'm having a similar error when i tried to duplicate both databases ( post -->Error duplicate databases fallo de la recuperaci¾n del medio fÝsico canal liberado: c1

I have a active data guard database which is copy of my production database. can i backup the active database using RMAN? The ADG is a read only and dont know, if RMAN can backup an read only database.
I'm going to backup this un-maintained Oracle 11g server in my office. I'm being told it's never been backed up and extremely critical to our success so tomorrow I'll be performing my 1st backup of the database using RMAN. My question is if I connect to the Oracle 11g database and run the:
[oracle@db1 ~]$ rman target=/ Recovery Manager: Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production on Mon Feb 13 13:18:05 2012 connected to target database: CQDB (DBID=1854033249)
RMAN> shutdown immediate
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog database closed database dismounted Oracle instance shut down
BACKUP DATABASET FORMAT �/oracle/u01/app/oracle/backup/%d-%T-%s-%P�;
My question is the above sufficient for a safe full backup? We only have the one single target database called 'cqdb' which houses several schemas. Can you tell me if this is correct? I've shut the database down so it's in a cold state so I don't think I need to configure the FRA (Flash / Fast Recovery Area) but I honestly don't know. This is my 2nd time on a Oracle DBMS.
What about the 'archivelog' files? Do I back those up? Do I need them in case a recovery? Also what about the 'controlfile'? Do I need to back those up as well as the mentioned above?
I have done many duplication before in sinlge instance databases using a backup tool and rman catalog. At the moment i was trying to do a RAC database duplication and facing some issues. For this i was doing a testing on my 1-node RAC. Primary and duplicated database is on the same Host and oracle version is 10.2.0.3. I perfomed following steps:
1.Created a DUPL database using DBCA.
2.Created a pfile using spfile.
3.Dropped all the datafiles, controlfiles and redo log files.
4.Started the database in nomount using pfile.
5.Disable cluster related parameters in pfile.
6.Took a full backup of the MAIN database with archivelog on disk.
6.Duplicate the database and it is done successfully.
7.Shutdown the instance and enabled cluster parameters.
8.Start instance using SRVCTL fails with error CRS-0215: Could not start resource 'ora.DUPL.DUPL1.inst'
But if start the instance using sqlplus it comes up nicely. There is not much information in alert log files.
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.

I would like to duplicate to the different server Oracle Database with RMAN. I've configured flash recovery area for Oracle Database. My questions are:
Source Server ( target ) : ORACLE_SID : DB11G AUXILIARY Server (duplicate ): ORACLE_SID : CLONE
1- if backup files (autobackup and backup set)/ Archived Logs are in a different path on the source host (not default FRA Path) then how can I use the DUPLICATE command? BTW, only the flashback logs are in the default location (/u01/app/oracle/fra/flashback). Path: /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/autobackup and /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/backupset.
2 - Do I have to add *_CONVERT parameters for different SID as shown below? e.g. : DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT , LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT.
DB11G.__java_pool_size=4194304 DB11G.__large_pool_size=4194304 DB11G.__oracle_base='/u01/app/oracle'#ORACLE_BASE set from environment DB11G.__pga_aggregate_target=155189248 [code]......
We have a host for restore purposes. We execute monthly or quarterly restore operations to verify that I am able to restore a subset of the data in the given amount of time or to other purposes. I have a automated script to Clone the Database, but to Clone Database we need remove the old database from ASM before start this operation. I want remove only Database files and keep the configuration (such as oratab/network/ocr and so on).
Question: There is a easy way to remove these files without connect on ASM or by using DBCA?
