Server Administration :: Restore And Recover Database?
Oct 21, 2010
I create a test database which is duplicate of my production server and after every 15 or 20 days I need to synchronize test db with production db.So I clone it and it takes about a day.I have to remove all datafiles from test and move from production to there on test server and I applied restore and recover.So it is very time consuming process.
I want to know is there any process which makes my work less like I just need to apply all rest of the logs which are new after synchronize last time from production server that need restore and recover.

I'm using Oracle Standard edition 11gR2, actually that's why I'm posting this thread because I can't use TRANSPORT TABLESPACE feature.
I need to restore and recover two tablespaces, backed up in source database in another database. The destination db has been duplicated from the source db a couple of days ago so the structure is identical.
I cannot use Data Pump on this specific tablespace, because it causes some strange behavior in our application. So I took a backup from tablespaces and now I'm looking for a solution to restore and recover it in another db.
Is there any command to restore a tablespace from a specific file? I googled a lot and no luck so far..
P.S: I use controlfile instead of recovery catalog.

We have lost some datafiles and some archivelogs. We have backup of whole database taken on Dec 20 and archivelogs until Dec 23.So we dont have 1 day worth of archivelogs which can lead to incomplete recovery.
Now question is do we need to restore all datafiles or only lost datafiles for incomplete recovery since we dont have all archivelogs ? lost datafiles belong to different tablespaces.
Datafiles which are still intact are with current SCN and we restore lost datafiles only and recover unitl our last available archivelog it will have different SCN. Will we be able to open database or we need to resotre whole database for this scenario?

I am doing some test, seeking your expert opinion.I have a database and have the following backup strategy.
1) Database running in archive log mode.
2) First I backup all the table space excluding one tablespace 'DP_TS_LOB'.
RMAN> CONFIGURE EXCLUDE FOR TABLESPACE 'DP_TS_LOBS';
RMAN> BACKUP DATABASE;
3) I take a separate Backup of DP_TS_LOB tablespace.
RMAN> BACKUP TABLESPACE DP_TS_LOB;
4) I backup all the archived redo logs.
RMAN> SQL 'ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT';
RMAN> backup archivelog all delete input;
Now I wanted to restore the database from the backup excluding the DP_TS_LOB and bring it up and running. DP_TS_LOB is huge and used only on certain work flows. I don't want the database to be down until we restore DP_TS_LOB. I wanted to restore all the other tablespace and bring the database up operational and restore and recover the DP_TS_LOB tablespace datafile's in background taking the datafiles of DP_TS_LOB tablespace offline.I tried the following but unsuccessful.
RMAN> restore controlfile to 'g:ctl_bckctl_01' from autobackup;
RMAN> restore spfile to 'g:ctl_bckspfile' from autobackup;
RMAN> sql "create PFILE = ''G:ctl_bckPFILE'' from SPFILE = ''G:ctl_bckSPFILE''";
Update the new parameter with new control file name. Copied the control file and parameter file to corresponding location.
RMAN> startup nomount pfile=D:appdivaproduct11.1.0db_1databasepfile;
RMAN> restore database skip tablespace 'dp_ts_lob';
RMAN> alter database mount;
RMAN> sql 'alter database datafile 8 offline'; ==> datafile of DP_TS_LOB tablespace.
First I assumed "Recover Database" will only recover online database files. But got the following error.
RMAN> recover database;
Starting recover at 27-JUL-11
using channel ORA_DISK_1
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 07/27/2011 18:23:03
RMAN-06094: datafile 8 must be restored
Then I tried recovering data file separately, but same error.
RMAN> recover datafile 1;
Starting recover at 27-JUL-11
using channel ORA_DISK_1
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

I am trying to create my database on a new server using rman incremental hot backups.
I have already restored and recovered my level 0 database on new server, but i am not able to restore/recover the level 1 backup on the new server. I have transported level 1 backup irom the old server to the new one. Do i need to recover lvl 1 bkp only or restore it also.

What is the difference between
recover database until cancel using backup controlfile; and alter database recover automatic until cancel;
1. in user managed and server managed backups. What would be the location of the controlfile which is used in (recover database until cancel using backup controlfile;) .
2. why user first option and why use second option.

We have separate tablespaces for Tables and Indexes. Also Temp is in different temporary tablespace and UNDO also in UNDO tablespace and Index tablespace contains only Indexes. The tablespace usage for tables is 80% and Index is 91%.There is not enough disk space to allocate for the datafile on our system. I ran a rebuild on one of the Index but now notice the Index tablespace is 98% used soon after the rebuild finished.
How can i free up space for Index tablespace and why does the size of Index tablespace increased after the rebuild.

I am facing an issue while rebuilding a DR (Physical Standby) site using RMAN.Rman is failing to restore all the datafiles to the stanby site.
There are 403 datafiles that should be restored among which after restoring 50-60 datafiles the channel is abruptly getting terminated.Please note this exercise is not new I have done this many times (once a year after a DR testing) and the same script is being used.The rcv file is as follows
/u03/oracle/admin/mpr/scripts/dataguard/configure_dr.rcv
connect auxiliary sys/XXXX@YYY
run {
duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck dorecover;
}
exit
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET;
configure_dr.rcv: END
[code]....
The trace file says "krso_proc_add: Detected dead process 13828326; subsuming V$MANAGED_STANDBY slot
INFO: krsr_rfs_atc: RFS processes are temporarily disallowed"
I have also started RMAN debug tracing and the trace is also scanned as it is huge.I have seen the following in the trace error 3015 signalled during compilation..I do not find any specific oracle error to check on .
The only change that happened is that the Primary production server has been moved to a new datacentre and after its move all the connections seems to be working fine.

The controlfiles were corrupted due to some issue. So, I had to restore the recent backed up control file and then restore the database.
The weird thing which I have noticed is that. I tried backing up Yesterday's Control file. So, I would say that the backup pieces it should pick should be from yesterday. however, the backup pieces are getting restored from last week's backup.

I have taken cold back-up of a complete database using below rcv from a server.
RMAN>
connect target /
run{
set command id to 'bkp_EMCPROD_db';
allocate channel c1 type 'sbt_tape' parms="BLKSIZE=1048576, ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo.opt)";
backup current controlfile format 'ct_t%t_T%T_d%d_s%s.ctl';
backup database format 'db_t%t_T%T_d%d_s%s_p%p.db';
backup current controlfile format 'ct_t%t_T%T_d%d_s%s.ctl';
release channel c1;
}
I need to restore this back-up on another server of the same Database Name. Below is the rcv which my sr. dba asked me to look into for the restore.
/* From the new server to restore the back-up */
RMAN>
connect target "rman/xxxxx@emcprod"
connect auxiliary /
run {
set until time "to_date('Nov 03 2011 19:00:00','Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";
allocate auxiliary channel c1 type 'sbt_tape' parms="ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.sacsun8.opt)";
restore database;

I'm running Oracle 11.2g enterprise and we have a database on a server. We want to take a backup from this database and restore it in another database with fewer memory. In restore procedure after edition of pfile I try to restore controlfiles with my edited pfile(initdb.ora), but i'm getting an error related to memory shortage. So i decreased the amount of *.memory_target(3.5G to 2.5G) and the restore procedure continued. At the end when i try to Open database(alter database open resetlogs) i got the following error and the database does not work normally.
RMAN> alter database open resetlogs

I had a problem starting up my database but was able to get it up and running. The only difference in my two scenarios was that I added a "recover database" statement, which seemed to do the trick.
I was under the impression during startup Oracle implicity does a recover if needed. If that is the case, how come I needed to use the "recover database" step. why the first scenario did not work and the second did.

I have an oracle 8i recovery scenario. I have database cold backups of MONDAY and WEDNESDAY evenings. backup contains control files, data files, redo files
Database runs in Archive log mode and all archives of the month are available. Hard disk crashed on SATURDAY
all archive logs are still available at different location. Control files are not backed up to trace or file name or automatically means no backup control file (except ones in cold backups described above)
restoring all files from cold backup of either MONDAY or WEDNESDAY (I recovered to Wednesday) leaves nothing to recover. Querying V$RECOVER_FILE returns nothing. All log sequences higher to the number nnn displayed as result of ARCHIVE LOG LIST are present at correct location in correct format
My question is how do i ROLL Forward the Database from WEDNESDAY to SATURDAY in the above scenario.

I have the following situation: a customer sent me a group of files, that he said to be a "backup" of an old database, that is no longer online (he doesn´t use our software anymore). However, he needs to recover the data in this database. The person at the company who generate these files doesn´t work there anymore, so we don´t have any of the following information:
- Database version, connection details, service names, user names neither tablespace names.
We were just told that these files were recorded in a DVD, and is que only source remaining.
The files he sent are the following:
ctrlcf_satp_01.ctl
ctrlcf_satp_02.ctl
ctrlcf_satp_03.ctl
daddf_satp_dad_01.dbf
[code]......
Is there a way to access this data? Or can I tell our costumer that your data is lost forever..

i have the following problem:
At a test database instance of Oracle 11g (11.2.0.3.0) at CentOS 6 i've imported a tablespace from another instance to test my backup strategy.
First i've done a fullbackup with RMAN:
----------
# rman target /
RMAN> BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG DELETE INPUT;
----------
Then i thought to test the database i could delete something and restore and recover the database from the backup. So i deleted a table in the imported tablespace:
----------
# sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> drop table TESTTABLE;
----------
After that i would start the restore and recover process by restoring and recovering the tablespace in which I deleted the table with RMAN. At first i've set the tablespace offline:
----------
SQL> alter tablespace TESTTABLESPACE offline immediate;
----------
Then I go to RMAN and start the restoring:
----------
RMAN> restore tablespace TESTTABLESPACE;
----------
Now there is a problem when i execute the recover command. The recover command includes the recovering from the redolog files, right? As I dropped the table from the tablespace this operation was written in the redolog files. So when i make a :
----------
RMAN> recover tablespace TESTTABLESPACE;
----------
The dropped tablespace would be dropped also, because the last redolog file told RMAN to drop the table. So i think I have to restore and recover my tablespace from an older timestamp, so RMAN would ignore the dropping of the table in the redolog file. Is that right so?
And when it is right how can i restore a tablespace from an older date so RMAN would ignore the dropping?

multiple disk failure, the database was open at the time.We have managed to recover the data from the disk and have put it on another disk.We have got a new server with oracle 9 running.
A blank database has been created.I have copied the control files and redo files onto the new server and left the datafiles , (.dbf,.ora) on a seperate external disk F drive (this is because the original database resided on F drive)I can mount the database , however when I try to open it I get the following
