Oracle Database 11g 11.2.0.1 SE1 I have a production database server which is currently having about 1TB of data.I need to shift this server to a different location with minimum possible downtime. Which is the best option this?RMAN backup, or datapump export and import
i have production database (1102.0.3.0) in Windows 2008 server R2 64 bit version . My database has some schemas which has partition tables and Db links and M views also .
Now my team lead asked me to setup the same environment(As cloning ) in testing environment also ... I have lots of options to create the same setup database using options like export/Import , data pump , hot backup and cold backup, Rman .
My doubt is which option will be best and optimal to achieve the same ?which approach i should proceed ?
I am trying to perform cold cloning at my home pc. when i am trying to create control file , i got this error.
SQL> CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "fclone" RESETLOGS FORCE LOGGING NOARCHIVEL OG 2 MAXLOGFILES 5 3 MAXLOGMEMBERS 5 4 MAXDATAFILES 10 [code].......
ERROR at line 1: ORA-01503: CREATE CONTROLFILE failed ORA-01163: SIZE clause indicates 12800 (blocks), but should match header 74112 ORA-01110: data file 2: 'C:appIndraoradatafclonesysaux01.dbf'
i have started cloning the database thru RMAN on my personal machine .the problem now is the database which i tried to clone and the database for which i was doing this task both are not working.I tried changing the database name and log file name using the parameters
db_file_name_convert= log_file_name_convert=
the main database files are on disk1 and the clone database files are on disk2...i have restored the controlfile by command
>alter database recover using backup controlfile ; after some time its giving cannot alter and giving message that system datafile needs recovery even i tried > alter database recover automatic not worked then i used the command
>> alter database recover using backup controlife until cancel;it gave message saying change generated so i cancelled the recovery and tried to open the database using RESETLOGS even now its giving the message SYSTEM file needs media recovery
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?
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
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 List of Files Unknown to the Database ===================================== File Name: /u03/oradata/db7fra/DB7/archivelog/2011_03_15/o1_mf_1_16_6qyvpb3w_.arc File Name: /u03/oradata/db7fra/DB7/backupset/2011_03_15/o1_mf_annnn_TAG20110315T123018_6qypyv5v_.bkp

I have altered permissions on the backup files as well but of no use

We have done cloning of our ORACLE APPLICATION(11i),after that performance of ERP is getting slow (like fetching of data). What we can do to increase the performance.
I have a database(10.2.0.5.0) in solaris 10 , i simply take a tar backup of ORACLE_HOME andextracted them into another server (which is solaris 10 only) and linked the binaries after that when i connecting with sqlplus.
I am getting following error
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.5.0 - Production on Fri Oct 4 14:49:48 2013 Copyright (c) 1982, 2010, Oracle. All Rights Reserved. Enter user-name: /as sysdbald.so.1: oracle: fatal: libskgxp10.so: open failed: No such file or directoryERROR:ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
I would like to tell that i have also oracle 11gr2 running on the server my oracle_base is same for both(10g 11g)but ORACLE_HOME is different.
New to oracle FAQ. I'm interested in oracle, waiting to explore more Technic's in 10g with a proper guidance. Hope i'm in the right place.Here is my question.
I need steps for configuring rman cloning with catalog & without catalog.were in prod db the source is in /u01 & in auxiliary db the client want in /u05. how to do it. here i have recreate control file or not
oracle 11g ASM RAC under OEL 5.6 . i just want to do a cloning so first i create cloning of my oracle home and then i create pfile and i get this error
SQL> startup nomount; ORA-29702: error occurred in Cluster Group Service operation SQL> exiti google it , i found this issue is with relink RAC binaries due to the souce database is RAC and destination is not
[oracle@backuptest ~]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib [oracle@backuptest lib]$ make -f ins_rdbms.mk rac_off bash: make: command not found
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;
Our product uses Oracle11gR1 and in new release we are going to use Oracle11gR2. For this we are performing following steps:
(1) Install Oracle11gR2 on a machine where our product (Oracle11gR1) is already installed. (2)Upgrade Oracle11gR1 schema to Oracle11gR2. (3)For using upgraded schema in our product installer we create clone of upgraded schema. (4)For creating clone we are using Oracle11gR2 DBCA utility. (5) Clone files are successfully created (DBC, CTL, DBF).
Now we performed same steps from another machine and DBF file size changed very much. On one machine it was 89 MB and on second machine it was 150 MB. There is no different in schema and both machines are Windows 7 machines.
Tor educe size of schema we tried different space reclamation commands but size is not changing.

How to prevent the error of RMAN-06054: media recovery requesting unknown archived log for thread with sequence and starting SCN of while performing the RMAN Active Cloning? I do NOT want to use UNTIL clause.
I got a primary database with a logical standby database running Oracle 11g. I got two client applications, one is the production site pointing to the primary one, another one is just a backup site pointing to the logical one.Things will only be written into the primary database every mid night and client applications can only query the database but not add, update nor delete.And now, I want to apply the latest patch on both of my databases. I am also the DNS administrator, I can make the name server pointing to the backup site instead of the production one.I want to firstly apply the patch on the logical one, and then the physical one.
I found some reference which explains how to apply patches by adopting "Rolling Upgrade Method". however, I want to avoid doing any "switch over" mentioned in the reference because I can make use of name server. Can I just apply patches as the following way?
1)Stop SQL apply 2)Apply patches on logical standby database 3)let the name server point to the backup site 4)Apply patches on the primary database 5)Start SQL apply 6)Let the name server point back to the production site
If flashback is enable in physical standby database 1. If we failover at 11AM can I flash back NEW primary database to 6 AM ? 2. if I convert physically standby database to snapshot standby database at 11AM , Can I flashback snapshot standby database to 6 AM and do some works on it (DML operations) then converting the snapshot standby database into physical standby database ?
We have configured oracle one way stream between two databases. Source database is capturing the changes (No downstream configured). Configuration was working fine but destination database was lagging behind very much i.e about 15 days behind the source database. We are ok with this but the problem is now that , as per client request we have restored previous backup and open the database with resetlog option in source database. After resetlog , archivelog sequence has been changed and stream is not working.
Can I apply the previous archivelog (before resetlog archivelogs ) in destination database anyway.Source database is a production database.
