Recovery Manager (RMAN) :: Information For List And Restore Command
May 15, 2013
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.

7 of days ago Full backup has been taken to disk due to issues with tape devices.3 days ago tape devices have been fixed and we switched to CommVault managed tape backups. CommVault calls RMAN with following command:
run {
allocate channel ch1 type 'sbt_tape'
PARMS="SBT_LIBRARY=/usr/local/bin/simpana/Base/libobk.so,BLKSIZE=1048576,ENV=(CV_mmsApiVsn=2,CV_channelPar=ch1,ThreadCommandLine=BACKUP -jm 45 -a 2:71 -cl 9 -ins 9 -at 22 -j 294321 -jt 294321:4:1 -bal 1 -rcp 0 -ms 1 -data -ma 89 -cn oraclehost -vm Instance001)"
TRACE 0;
setlimit channel ch1 maxopenfiles 8;
backup
incremental level = 0
filesperset = 32
database
include current controlfile spfile ;
}
exit;
These backups done successfully.Then archivelog backup taken similar way.But when I issue RESTORE DATABASE PREVIEW SUMMARY; RMAN starts with Full backup set, though newer Incremental Level 0 ones are available.Why it does not use these newer ones?

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.

My scenario is: database is in archivelog mode.
I run DLY cold backups including controlfile & archivelogs and keep 3 gens of backups and archivelogs to 3 days also. What is the correct procedure to restore back to an old cold backup. Database is backed up Mon,Tue,Wed on Thur we require to bring database back to Tuesday DLY security.
I have tried:
startup mount
restore database from tag 'DLYTUE'
recover database
( this just rolls forward on all archive logs once it restores datafiles, not getting to point to alter database open resetlogs.)
Next tried to :
recover database archivelog tag 'DLYTUE'
( same outcome )
What is the correct rman procedure including should I remove old archive logs from working OS directory ? Also need to know once I restore back and open database to TUE security how do you tidy up the archive logs and dumps which are no longer require i.e. : weds..
I have read about using the set until time option but how to I get absolute time from when cold backup completed if this is the correct procedure.

I have a doubt regarding the process the RMAN follows for restore and recovery of the database.
My Level 0 full backup completes on Saturdays at around 11 am after taking 8 hours (It starts at 3am).On Sunday, I ask RMAN to restore (on a different box) till Saturday 11:30 am.Then, after the restore is successful, I recover it till 11:45 am.
The recovery also goes fine and Iam able to clone to test box.
Till what time is the database restored? I assume its till 11 am since the L0 backup finishes at 11 am though I have asked it to restore till 11:30 am
During the recovery, ONLY the archives generated between Saturday 3 am and till the time i asked for recovery (Saturday 11:45 am ) are required. But, checking the recovery log file, i was surprised to see that RMAN has restored archive files starting from Friday 9:30 pm (Much before the time the Level 0 backup even started).
why does RMAN require the old archive log files.

1. My RAC (old RAC) had got a failures from one node, then there was only one existing node now.
2. I configured a RAC (new RAC) on 2 other servers, both of them (old-RAC and new-RAC) has got same OS version, platform and Oracle version release.
3. I took a full backup yesterday plus archivelog in the node of old-Rac, configure NFS in new-Rac to make the backup within remote-share NFS.
The only problem still now that I've restore/recovery/duplicated single instance, not Rac. So, may you guide me to do it?
Information:
Old-Rac & New-Rac:
+ Cluster 11g: CFS
+ Database: 2 nodes with same instance name (cbs1-cbs2)
+ Location for CRS_HOME and ORACLE_HOME: Same to be.
+ Location of archivelog: Same to be (+ARCHIVE)

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 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?

I 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.

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.

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 ?

Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.2.RAC and Host RHEL 5.6
My dev application team iwant to test their application, and once that is done they want to recover to point in time. In my case they would do that after 9.0Am and once that is done they want the state of the database back to 9.0Am
What i am planning to do is:create a restore point at 9.0Am and once application testing is done recover until restore point. ..But i was suggested not to do that way instead my Lead want me to use just recover until timestampI asked what is the difference in doing in my way,the answer i got is by using recover until restore point, the recover process cannot apply incremental level 1 backups and it just restores to a point of incremental level 0, it looked strange to me.

I am trying to restore a backup from a live server to a dev server. Have moved nackup sets. Created a windows service to match the old sid on live system. copied the pfile from live and changed the locations of the folders to suit dev. set oracle_sid to the new sid(as created to match live)
connected to rman
startup nomount
set dbid to the live number
restore controlfile
alter database mount
catalog'd all the backupsets
[code]....
but it fails when it tries the restore .. see below ..The path it is showing is the old path from the live server, so it appears to eb ignoring my set newname statements even though they succeeded earlier - should be restoring them to d:oracleoradatasun43dev ? Does the whole thing have to be put inside one run block or can I put bits in one run block and other bits outside of it etc?
