I am trying to delete the backupset using Delete Obsolete command, but i am unable to get the success. As per the oracle Doc after completion of Retention Period oracle automatically deletes the backupset. I have set the retention period of 8 days.
View 7 RepliesI've created a small script witch delete the obsolete and expired backups of RMAN.
The problem is: the "delete obsolete" and the "delete expired backup" command needs a confirmation with YES. I don't need to confirm the command and he deletes the backups directly?
Here is my little script:
#!/bin/ksh
export ORACLE_SID=dbtest2
export ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/srv/ora/product/11.2.0/dbtest_2
export ORACLE_BIN=/home/oracle/srv/ora/product/11.2.0/dbtest_2/bin
alias RMAN=$ORACLE_BIN/rman

I have a problem in running delete obsolete or report obsolete using rman. Although the retention policy is set to "CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 60 DAYS;", when running delete obsolete or report obsolete it deletes or returns all the backupsets till sysdate. What should I do to solve this issue?

Backups using RMAN utility.Our system is configured to take backups on Tape library using TSM server.
We take incremental level 1 backup on all days and Level 0 backup on Wednesday.We would like to keep the RMAN retention period of 14 days.I delete the backups that are 7 days old from the disk to save space and 14 days older backup from Tape.

How to avoid this error ? Can we set "Retention period" as 14 days in RMAN level and delete the backups in disk which is older than 7 days?Should the deletion of tape backup be handled in TSM level ?

Oracle 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)?
Version 11.2.0.1
Control file record time = 7 days
I am not using recovery catalog
RMAN> list archivelog all;
It shows archivelogs from logsequence 179 - 206
But on my o.s I have archivelogs from log sequence 104 - 206 (I have not deleted them for long 1 month). It is not showing form 104 - 178. Since control file record time is 7 days it doesnt keep old archivelogs history.(i.e from 104-206) Hence it is showing only from 179 - 206
My question is
1)If we use rman recovery catalog will these info is maintained forever until deleted. And can i see them in list command. (i.e from 104-206)
2)If i use rman catalog then from where did rman get the information of archives and backup (for list and restore command) from catalog or from control file.
We observed that our RMAN backup was taking more time to complete. CROSSCHECK is the main culprit as because of having data in the catalog for more than 3 years.
So in the part of script we added delte obsolete recovery windoe of 14 days. (Redundancey 1).
Here the problem is we are getting error as
RMAN-03002 - failure of delete command
RMAN-06091 - NO channel allocated for maintenance (of an appropriate type).
Reason: Till 2 years back the backup was stored in tape and after that it got changed to disk. So allocating channel disk to delete obsolet is not working. How we can over come this.
We tried like allocating channel tape sbt_type. It got failed as no media manager information configured. We dont have that information.
How we can overcome this.

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.
can we restore database from obsolete backup using rman

I expect that the first L0 backup is going to become obsolete, but even if I run crosscheck, it never become obsolete.
How i can manually allocate channel for my backups going to tape?
For disk backups i can do and it work...

I am using RMAN with a recovery catalog option on a separate Database. My question is
When we use catalog does RMAN keep the information in Control file of the Target Database as well or only in recovery catalog? I am asking this in case We lost the database which contains the recovery catalog what to do?
I have recently patched my catalog home to 9208 from 9204; the target database is still on 9204 but now I cannot connect to the catalog database.

Backup-Based Duplication Without a Target and a Recovery Catalog Connection?
I have following query in Dataguard ..
If I want to take Rman archive log backup with delete input command , how the archive logs will be copied to standby database
For eg
I am taking archive backup as
RMAN>backup archivelog all delete input;
here consider few archives are not copied to standby database (due to nw issue) then how standby will receives these missing archives as those are deleted by rman backup at primary side.
I am not getting any document related to above query.
Can the target database and the recovery catalog database be the same?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am making incremental backups via RMAN, the backups are staying at disk. And the infrastructure team will copy this files backups to tape. And they want delete the files that will staying in disk via RMAN. Until now it's ok.
But and if I need of backups that stay on tape, it's possible make a recovery of deleted files by rman.
Is this possible to recover a schema using RMAN bckup
View 5 Replies View Relatedi have a database (test1 10gr2 ) on rhel 5.5 and am using ASM (raw devices). for this database i have arch location as
log_archive_dest_1='location=+DG_ARC/arch'
My backup location is +DG_bak/test1.
Now when i run rman backup (nocatalog mode).. backup database plus archivelog delete input; it completes successfully but deletes the arch directory from +DG_ARC diskgroup and when i switch logfile it hangs ... alert log says unable to find archive destination. this thing is driving me nuts not sure why arch directory is being deleted. but when i get into asmcmd and manually create the arch directory logswitch takes place now.
We would take backup regulary by RMAN(catalog). Last two days we could not take backup. Backup start but after take backup some datafile then rman does not do anything.

I have seen in many RMAN backup scripts that a manual log switching is performed in first line of the script? What is it purpose, just to write changes needed to reconstruct the DML/DDL statements to online redo logfiles and start the archiving process if db is running in archive log mode?

I am using Oracle 11.2.0.3 RAC (2 nodes) + ASM on AIX 7.1
I am backing up my Oracle database through RMAN to ASM disk groups..I have a requirement to backup also to an OS file systems. So what I did that I mounted an NFS across the 2 nodes of my RAC database.I am running backup from node 2 only.My issue now is that I am facing a real performance issue when backing up to NFS.My question is there any way to take an RMAN backup to local file system on node 2? or in other way what are the options to take RMAN backups to an OS file system?
I tried to copy from ASM to OS file system but i was advised to backup to file system using the format command.what should i do in such case? since I am facing performance issue to backup to NFS.
Can I register a database say MYDB in datacenter1 with two different catalogs i.e., I have one rman catalog a datacenter1 location and another rman catalog in datacenter2 location. So, can I register MYDB to rman catalogs at datacenter1 and datacenter2. If, so how can we keep rman catalogs at datacenter1 and datacenter2 in sync. For MYDB rman backups I just want to use local rman catalog which is datacenter1. But I just want to keep a redundant copy of the rman catalog.
