RMAN :: Sanity Backup - Cloning Database?
May 5, 2013
oracle 11g ASM RAC under OEL 5.6
i have a task to do do a sanity backup just to check the backup is recoverable or not , but i failed to install the agent in my server due to we have a HP DATA Protector for a backup and my manager told me i need to take the backup from HDP not as i always do take the backup on disk and then move this backup on test server and do a task cloning ,i do the cloning by rman but the backup on tape drive , i mean by rman open a channel to take the backup from PROD to TEST?

1) have taken backup at target side.
2) through SCP, transferred all the file to auxiliary side.
3) Ran the duplicate command at auxiliary side.
After running the command, i got the below error.

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
Quote:ORA-19870: error reading backup
Here are the session details
RMAN> catalog start with '/u03/oradata/db7fra';
searching for all files that match the pattern /u03/oradata/db7fra

Using RMAN to clone production DB to another server. After the recover database , rman keeps asking the archivelog which is not available.

But during the recover database statment not getting completed instead its keep asking archive log file which is not existing.
HOw to open the database.

As I understand we can't clone database across platform using Rman, as Rman backup taken on say Unix is useless to be recovered on Windows. Though I think of Export and Import, will copying the datafiles, logfiles, controlfile will serve purpose for cloning across platform?
Note that I do not mean Transportable tablespace here. Only copying cold backup across platform

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?

While cloning using RMAN DUPLICATE command, one can convert all files from various locations to new locations by using DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT. One can also retain the same locations with no conversion by using NOFILENAMECHECK. My question is what if I want to convert some, and not convert others?

I am new to Oracle, like to get clarified on below;
1. From where can we run the RMAN Clone script?
Source DB : PRDDB HOST: PRDHOST
Destination DB: DUPDB HOST: DEVHOST
Are there any constraints on running the RMAN Script from the Source DB Host - PRDHOST?
If I am running it from PRDHOST, do I have to have the initdupdb.ora available on PRDHOST?
What are advantages and disadvantages on running the script on Source & Destination Host?

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.

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.
