RMAN :: Looking At Different Location To Restore On Physical Standby (10g)
Feb 12, 2013
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'
[code]........

I am trying to duplicate an Database and create an Physical Standby through following command
I took the backup through rman using the following command on Monday
RMAN> run
2> {
3> ALLOCATE CHANNEL C1 TYPE DISK FORMAT 'E:DB_FULL\DB1_FULL_%U';
4> ALLOCATE CHANNEL C2 TYPE DISK FORMAT 'E:DB_FULL\DB1_FULL_%U';
5> ALLOCATE CHANNEL C3 TYPE DISK FORMAT 'E:DB_FULL\DB1_FULL_%U';
6> ALLOCATE CHANNEL C4 TYPE DISK FORMAT 'E:DB_FULL\DB1_FULL_%U';
7> backup database format 'E:DB_FULL\DB1_FULL_%U';
8> backup archivelog all format 'E:DB_FULL\DB1_FULL_%U';
9> backup current controlfile for standby format 'E:DB_FULL\DB1_FULL_%U';
10> }
Today i am trying to clone the DB1 Database as physical standby ...
using the following command
> RMAN TARGET sys/sys@db1 AUXILIARY /
Then I exceuted the following command
> duplicate target database for standby dorecover;
but i am getting error RMAN-06024: no backup or copy of the control file found to restore

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 a test environment with Primary DB Server, Physical Standby and Logical Standby.The Logical Standby DB (cur_log_stdb) is backed up every evening by RMAN and I have a question:If I recover my Logical Standby DB from backup and switch replication to new Logical Standby DB (new_log_stdb) it will work or not?My steps e.g.:1. Make a new server for my new_log_stdb and repair structure of catalogs;2. Repair listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files from cur_log_stdb to new_log_stdb;3.
Restore DB with RMAN from backup to new_log_stdb;4. On cur_log_stdb execute "alter database stop logical standby apply";5. Change a DNS name from cur_log_stdb to new_log_stdb;6. On new_log_stdb execute "alter database start logical standby apply immediate";I'm not sure that archivelogs will apply to the new_log_stdb for period since rman backup was created. Configuration:Oracle Linux 6.4Oracle Database 11.2.0.3Primary and Physical with Data Guard

I have dataguard configuration operating in maximum availability mode with a local standby db (A - lgwr sync not using real time apply) and a remote standby db (B - lgwr async). I then simualted a crash of my primary database with batch jobs running. Since the stby db A is in lgwr sync option ,all the commited data in the current online redo log has been transmitted to stby A and is present in its stby redo log (Group 2).How do I apply this stby redo log to the remote stby db.
Tried the following methods.
1.ftp the stby redo log to the remote db and tried to regiter it, got an error that it is not completely archived.
2.issued the recover standby database command and supplied the stby redo log when it asked for the sequence in the stby redo, got an error saying there is corruption in a block(tried this option multiple times ended up with the same result.)

My steps for testing as below:
1.create a primary database
2.duplicate a physical standby database;
3.turn on flashback on both databases.
4.record SCN xxx on physical standby database.
5.convert physical standby to logical standby (using keep identity statement)
6.flashback to logical standby to xxx
7.convert logical standby to physical standby
8.using real time apply I got errors: Fast Parallel Media Recovery enabledManaged Standby Recovery starting Real Time ApplyMRP0:

I would like to implement Oracle RAC with 2 nodes for SE Licence. I did a lot when both this nodes with 3 NICs each were plugged at the same switch. Now I have a need to construct a RAC when two nodes will be in separate locations, abot 4 miles from each one. What should I explain to our network administrator he needs to do to implement this solution? I've been told that they can do a FO channel to each location. But don't have exact clear explicaton.

I need to rename an Oracle9i database on windows which has a physical standby database running on a different machine.
I have the steps to rename the primary database but am unsure of it's impact on the physical standby database. It seems like I will have to re-create the physical standby database, since renaming the primary database involves opening the db with "resetlogs". It's a production environment hence can't play with it without knowing the results.

I have a Physical Standby database on server#2 which has its UNDO and TEMP tablespaces in a mount point that is a bit small. I discovered yesterday that this mount point was completely filled. This is not an immediate problem, because even though the TEMP and UNDO tablespaces are large, there is almost no usage of them.
I logged into my Primary, and created a new temp tablespace (TEMP2), made it the database default, dropped the TEMP tablespace, and then re-created the TEMP tablespace in a different mount point (with a much higher capacity!). I then made the new TEMP as the database default temp tablespace again. I expected that these changes would be propagated over to the Physical Standby via log application, but they didn't come over.
I have standby_file_management set to AUTO, and there are no unapplied logs. Everything OTHER than the temp tablespaces seems to be in synch.

We're currently in a situation where the primary database server fs size does not match the standby database server fs size.
Standby database filesystem is almost 100% utilized, and we suggested to move some of the datafiles first to avoid threshold alerts and archive gaps.
Now, if we're gonna move datafiles on the physical standby, I believe the process would be stop managed redo apply -> shutdown standby -> OS move -> startup mount -> alter rename -> start managed redo apply. Is this correct? If not, how?
Also, would it have an effect if the controlfiles of primary and standby do not match because of the movement?

I have an issue whereby our standby instance was down for a couple of days and when it came back online we found an archivelog file was missing, so recovery only happened up to a point. It appears that the archivelog was deleted therefore we are unable to continue with this standby. We are now planning to rebuild the standby database. As far as i know all of the steps originally performed need not be performed to complete this task.
1. Shutdown standby
2. Delete all datafiles & redo logs
3. Copy over datafiles to respective directories
4. Copy online logs and archivelogs to standby.
5. Create a control file for standby database
6. Startup mount standby database
7. start redo apply

Suddenly I can't open any of my physical standby databases read only. Alert log snippet and trace files follow post. I'm running 9.2.0.1.0 on all hosts, which are running AIX 5.2. I've successfully opened all physical standby databases read only numerous times in the past. Is it possible that these standby databases cannot be switched over to primary should the need arise?
Here's how I typically open a physical standby database read only:
alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
alter database open read only;
Errors in file /ora/product/9.2.0.1.0/rdbms/log/icps1_ora_27382.trc:
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-16000: database open for read-only access
Error 604 happened during db open, shutting down database
USER: terminating instance due to error 604

Today, I am learning dataguard 11.2.0.1. The docs said:A. Monitoring Standby DB Application of redo logs may be monitored by issuing the SQL command:
SQL> select client_dbid, process, sequence#, status from v$managed_standby;
In the primary database, the sequence# with the status “WRITING” would refer to the current redo log sequence#In the standby database, if the status of the process MRPO is “APPLYING LOG” and the status of the process LGWR is “IDLE”, then application of redo logs is up to dateI see that that MRPO at standby is "WAIT_FOR_GAP". How do I resolve this gap.

I have setup 11g Dataguard - physical standby. Everything seems to be fine. I have also tested switchover and failover using DG broker which seems to work fine.All, I would like to know is abt ORA-01109 during switchover..
My config - RACprim- RACstby
Primary - TEST_prim (instances - TEST1, TEST2)
Standby - TEST_stby (instances - TEST1, TEST2)
DGMGRL> SWITCHOVER TO TEST_stby;
Performing switchover NOW, please wait...
New primary database "TEST_stby" is opening...
Operation requires shutdown of instance "TEST1" on database "TEST_prim"
Shutting down instance "TEST1"...
ORA-01109: database not open
[code].....
This ORA error occurs when it tries to shut down primary. When primary is in open state, why its saying that database not open. Operation requires shutdown of instance "TEST1" on database "TEST_prim"..Shutting down instance "TEST1"..

I would like to export few tables from the physical standby which is in read only mode.
I have tried both the exp and expdp methods and could successfully export and import the tables from physical standby using exp unfortunately the expdp does not allow this process from a read only database.
Does this mean that we still have to use the exp feature instead of expdp ?
Note : I would expect a proper response from experts and no unwanted comments like "Contact Oracle support" or "Paste the entire command here" or "Read the Manuals" or "Why i am exporting from Standby and not from Primary" etc.

1) The Primary Database is UP. The Physical Stand By Database is DOWN. The Current Archive Log Sequence is 99 in Primary.
We have to apply Archive Log from 51 to 99 to the Standby Database. But Unfortunately, there is no backup of those Archivelogs and the ArchiveLogs from 51 to 98 have got deleted at Primary end.
Now how will you apply these Archive Logs from Primary Database to Physical Standby Database?
Note : The Physical StandBy Database is DOWN.

I have set up a single instance standbys for rac databases. Now, I need to offload the backups from the primary on to the standbys.
1. cancel managed recovery
2. connect to target(standby) and catalog and backup the standby
3. put standby in managed recovery mode.
I think following these steps, I can restore primary(?). Now, My question is, how can I use these standby backups to clone/refresh databases? I tried it by connecting to target(primary), catalog and auxiliary but rman is using the primary backups instead of standby's to refresh the auxiliary database.
