ShadowProtect To Backup Oracle Databases?
Mar 22, 2013
if you are using ShadowProtect to backup your Oracle databases. What are your experiences and the pros and cons in using ShadowProtect as the one and only backup/recovery tools for Oracle databases? Can the potential of ShadowProtect replaces the commonly use Oracle backup/recovery tools?
The reason why I raise this question is because my boss has the idea that ShadowProtect is THE best backup/recovery tools. Personally I don't think so, because there can be cases where we only need to recover the database and not the whole OS.

temp tablespace
***************
current server - 4.0(approximately)
Migrating server - 160 MB
System tablespace
*****************
current server - 580 MB
Migrating server - 220 MB
Also I checked the tables are also matching for the 4 databases.Also Provide the solution or method which is correct.
steps done for migrating(By me)
********************************
EXPORTING DATA USING DATAPUMP
*********************************
1 From command prompt MKDIR 'c:oraclexeapp mp';
2 From SQL prompt conn system/kotak;
3 create or replace directory dmpdir as 'c:oraclexeapp mp';
4 grant read,write on directory dmpdir to kotak;
5 From command prompt
expdp system/kotak@xe full=Y directory=dmpdir dumpfile=xe.dmp logfile=expdpxe.log;
IMPORTING DATA USING DATAPUMP

I'm just wondering because i didn't find any example / test databases for Oracle. Thus MS has its "northwind", mysql its "world" or "sakila".
Additionally, the tables view is quiet confusing, referring to all those generated tables (

I tried right-click + apply filter *remove generated* but it didn't work.

I have cloned the database into another using DBMS_METADTA API (export the metadata in xml form and recreate it on destination). I need to synch these two periodically. I need to update the XML to synchronize the databases.
I don't have 11g to use DBMS_METADATA_DIFF API.

I have 2 separate servers each with oracle database installed.I am trying to pull oracle logs from these 2 databases to my main linux server using perl DBI. On this linux server I have 1 dbipoll.pl script and 2 wrapper scripts that pass in parameters to dbipoll.pl.
Here is the sample wrapper script that I've used to call dbipoll.pl(separate script with different parameters for each databases used):
CODE#!/bin/sh
#
export ORACLE_HOME=/ora-main/app/oracle/product/11.1.0.6/db
export ORACLE_SID=rmdev1
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME
#
[code]....
As you can see,the script should retrieve logs and write to oracledb1.log and update the countfile1 with the latest timestamp.The wrapper scripts are scheduled to run at 5mins interval.
The first wrapper script,which I've named as call_dbipoll1.sh runs fine. I am able to retrieve events and both oracledb1.log and countfile1 are successfully updated.
However,the second wrapper script,call_dbipoll2.sh is successful only for the first run. For subsequent runs,I've noticed that countfile2 does not get updated with the latest timestamp(ie. the file returns to blank) and oracledb2.log returns to blank as well. Therefore,am unable to pull new events then. Unable to determine what went wrong here..
Here is sample of my second wrapper script that tries to retrieve events from the 2nd database:
CODE#!/bin/sh
#
export ORACLE_HOME=/ora-main/app/oracle/product/11.1.0.6/db
export ORACLE_SID=rmdev2
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME
#
[code]....

I've read a lot about the different types of backup available with Oracle (hot and cold backup). However, I was thinking of a different way of performing this task. I'm currently using Windows Server 2008 R2 and Oracle 11g Standard Edition. I'd like to schedule an entire backup of my server via the utility "Windows Server Backup" (available for free).That way, I could recover my entire server with all the programs and files in case the latter crashes.I'm wondering if this solution could be used as a way of backing up (and recovering) the Oracle database. Should I still set up a regular hot backup with the Archivelog mode enabled in case some operations/transactions were being done at the time of the crash (for the data integrity)?

I set 'maxopenfiles 4' when allocating channel to sbt in my products env, I got 2 backup pieces in one backup set because that tablespace has 7 datafiles. Other configuration is kept as default, such as no maxsize, no MAXPIECESIZE, and etc setting.
I read document from Oracle. It says:"By default a backup set contains one backup piece. To restrict the size of each backup piece, specify the MAXPIECESIZE option of the CONFIGURE CHANNEL or ALLOCATE CHANNEL commands. " And also, maxopenfiles configure does not force another backup piece generated. So, why do I get another backup piece?
BTW, I tried this on another testing environment. I only get one backup piece even there are more than 2 times maxopnefiles datafiles.

When you create a backup in SQL Server, whether the backup is on disk or on tape, SQL Server writes the letters TAPE to the first four bytes of the backup. Does Oracle write any specify value to the front of every backup, and if so, what are the first four bytes?

I have 2 seperate rman backup one backup is of only datafile ,spfile and controlfile which i am able to restore and recover without any problem say bkp1 taken at 10 am
other set of backup is of only archive log files of same day but later time than datafile backup say bkp2 taken at 8pm...if i restore and recover bkp1 and try to restore bkp2 it gives error datafile exist (possibly due to fact both backup have control file)
if i just restore bkp1 and try to restore bkp2 so that i can do one recover at time
it gives error datafile permission issue (possibly due to fact both backup have control file)
I want to restore database upto 8pm time how can i use both bkp1 and bkp2 to do it(restore datafiles and apply all archive logs on it)
