Block level of SUPPLY of RMAN catalog DB version and target DBs

DB catalog version: 11.2.0.2.3
Target the DBs: 11.2.0.2.3

Currently our catalog DB and target DBs (15 of them) are at the same level of power supply.
Let's apply PSU 5 (11.2.0.2.3) on some of the target DBs. should it apply PSU 5 (11.2.0.2.3) on the DB catalog first before we apply this power on the target of DBs?

Hi TeslaMan,
Probably, you mean that the RDBMS of the catalogue is version 11.2.0.2.3.
If you are upgrading a CPU target databases, you may need to upgrade the catalog to an equal or higher level schema.
Please check the version of the current catalog with the following sql schema.

Select * from RCVER;

Maybe you can create a catalog schema dummy with the task until RDBMS rman cli (perhaps you have tested the processor already?) and check the new version with the same sql.
Kind regards

  • Information on RMAN catalog database using and any catalog (controlfile)

    Hi all.

    I´d like some clarification on the subjects of RMAN RMAN usage with or without a recovery catalog (database / schema):

    (1) will be the database controfile target always store ALL changes made on RMAN? For example, configure changes persistent RMAN as a retention strategy, controfile autobackup, backup optimization and so forth, these will always record on the target database controlfile, even if we're connecting to RMAN with a recovery catalog?

    (2) what happens if we stop using the recovery catalog? I mean, if you don't use stored scripts and shot through the OS jobs or same EM control database, may continue to use then and do not connect more on the recovery catalog? It will be a problem? My target database stops?

    I will be the legacy a few databases to administer and they connects to a catalog of recovery of database / schema, it's good, but I want to set up my own backup and restore policies / procedures in a two-step process: (1) have each configuration of RMAN database on controlfile, Later (2) in view of the use of the recovery catalog to centralized databases and keep more disk backup and restore.

    Thanks in advance!

    (1) Yes, everything about the structure of data is stored in the controlfile. The location of the backup controlfile is also stored in the controlfile.

    The backup controlfile location is also stored in the catalog if you synchronize to it.

    (2) you can stop immediately using the catalog if you choose, and as long as you have a backup RMAN script file, you can always backup using this file.

    The catalog is used to store the location of the backupsets, and copy image. If you have any scripts to store, it can store these too. Really, it's all done catalog.

    You can back up and restore/recover without a catalog, as long as you know where all backups are retained.

  • The Rman catalog must be registered?

    Hello experts,

    Don't you think that would be recorded in the database catalog Rman or not? If so could be in the same Rman catalog or in other different database?

    In the documentation of Rman something about this?

    My 11.2.0.3 Rman catalog database have a controlfile and default 15-day CONTROL_FILE_RECORD_KEEP_TIME.

    My media layer has a 90-day supply. So if I would to restore an older version of 15 days from the catalog in another machine I had to sign up former backups before games.

    Would be, this example above, a real possibility that I had to listen to extracts?

    Thank you and best regards.

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply,

    but do you think useful registry the Rman catalog database in the catalog itself? Or is nonsense? a why?

    Thanks and greetings

    Of course, it is absurd to register in the database catalog with himself.  The entire purpose of the catalog is to help the recovery.  So how the catalog database can help in recovery if the catalog database needs recovery.

  • RMAN catalog 11 GR 2 Update Catalog RMAN-06429

    Hi all

    I have databases oracle 11 GR 1 material and GR 11, 2 in use.
    Last time I would upgrade the catalog with 'Upgrade catalog' database to backup databases the new 11 GR 2.

    The upgrade looks good, but after this task, I have 21 invalid objects in the RMAN catalog and it was not possible to compile without error. And all the other which backups using the catalog fails the RMAN-06429.
    -> Package PL/SQL BAKRMAN. DBMS_RCVCAT Version 11.02.00.02 in the RCVCAT too recent database.
    I therefore return to the action.

    What is the right way to use the catalog rman with levels of different database?
    How can I use the catalog also for 11 GR 2 databases without any side effect on my other 11 GR 1 material databases?
    The rman catalog reside on a 11.1.0.7.0 database.

    Yes, the process of looking at this.

  • RMAN catalog upgrade 11.2.0.4.7 with 11.2.0.4.0 database

  • Firewall rules RMAN target database and RMAN catalog database

    Hi, we are on Oracle 11.2.0.4 and we just build a new environment, in which case the RMAN catalog is located on a seprate from the target database server. I'm trying to figure if the firewall between these two rules should be two-way, so that the target database and RMAN catalog database can ping each other. If bi-directional rules in place, so what's the reason for this? I understand that during RMAN backup entries are made in the RMAN catalog database, but do not know if the RMAN catalog database must always meet target db. Thank you!

    If you run the rman command on the target database server, it acts as a client to the catalog database server by connecting on sqlnet to the catalog database.

    If you run the rman command on the catalog database server, it's a sqlnet connection join the target database server.

    In both cases, rman is simply a client that connects to the two databases.

  • ORA-25408: can not read the appeal during a duplicate backup with rman catalog database safely

    Can someone explain it to me?

    Hello

    The connection of the RMAN catalog remains inactive during the backup/restore process, once rman completes the task and try to activate the connection it gets error.

    What is expected as you said the rebooted server. If this happens because of the expiration time, we went with the parameter net expire_time to maintain the connection.

  • RMAN catalog by default for all databases of the value

    Hello

    I run a catalog RMAN 11 GR 1 material.

    I wonder if it is possible to change a default setting in the RMAN catalog so that he will inherit all new databases.

    For example, I would that all new data entered in the catalog for:

    BACKUP OPTIMIZATION

    REDUNDANCY 7 RETENTION STRATEGY

    Thank you

    Massi

    No, the catalogue cannot "dictate" configurations for databases.  Each database maintains configuration in the controlfile and this can be changed that by rman connection (i.e. rman connection to the database target). The command SETS in rman is used to define a "permanent" for a database configuration parameter but must be issued individually for each database.

  • Is a block level copy when expand us the size of the disc during P2V?

    During P2V, if we reduce the size of the disk, it will be a copy of file level which will be slower than the block level.

    We wonder if she will be a block-level copy if we expand the size of the disk during a P2V?  If she always uses level file copy, it would be preferable not to increase the size of disk and just extend the disk space by using DISKPART after conversion?

    Thank you

    It will be block level for NTFS volumes, and at the level of the files of FAT volumes.

  • Moving the RMAN catalog

    Hello
    My question concerns the RMAN catalog. A few months ago we moved from solaris zones linux servers. A new catalog of recovery was created on linux servers (same name as the catalog of recovery on solaris zones). There are a few databases that couldn't be moved on the linux server and I would like to re - run databases on solaris zones to use the linux RMAN catalog. Should what steps I follow? Thank you.

    J

    A new catalog of recovery was created on linux servers (same name as the catalog of recovery on solaris zones).

    Since its new catalogue, then you will need to register your database in this catalogue and use this database schema name while making the connection to this rman catalog.

  • VMware Converter Standalone copy is the copy block level and sometimes at the level of files

    Hi team,

    I use VMware converter standalone for P2V and V2V migrations. I noticed that some readers are cloned by the converter by block-level copying and some readers are colned by the file-level copy. Anyone can unmask me why is it so? Block level and file level methodology is decided by the converter on what basis? is the size of the size\sector disc or disc type? Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    The downside is the maintenance you need to do for the catalog. He had some performance issues with the catalog in previous versions, but I think he's fine now.

    Do I need to back up the RMAN catalog or back up separately in addition to the backup of the database?

    Just save as regularly as you can afford. RMAN or export. Losing the catalog is a hassle but not the end of the world.

  • Corrective action - script using RMAN catalog?

    Hi all

    for ways to avoid an archiver stuck, I implemented a FRA_USAGE metric and corrective action for this measure which runs a RMAN script, back up and delete the archived logs. This so far works fine.
    However, what I would really like to do is to connect to our catalogue and then back up the archive logs - is it at all possible and if so, how?

    Thanks for your comments.

    Step 1 Add the recovery catalog to GC. See http://diandiandiandididi.blogbus.com/logs/62862298.html (stop at the point "Use Recovery Catalog")
    Step 2 for each db for which you want to use tracking the catalog to retrieve the in the mentioned link step "Using Recovery Catalog" to stop at the "backup." planned to specify
    Step 3 (sorry, now I have to do in the lead) create action: installation, library of Corrective Action if I remember correctly, you can create a RMAN job just the way you want it to be.
    Step 4 change your UDM (FRA_USAGE) so that the corrective action will be run step 3 created new RMAN script.

    Now, you can also create and schedule backups RMAN (using the RC) without using the operating system script.
