Clean an orphan incarnation in the RMAN catalog

• 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.

• 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.

  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.

• Control to the RMAN catalog file

  Dear friends,
  
  Now my RMAN backup is running using the control file. How can I change the catalog?
  
  Please guide me.
  
  Thanks in advance.

  If there is no drawback application RMAN catalog, then I guess I do it with her.

  Like when I want to recover the database in a new server with the backup and so on... >

  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?

  Could I lose the catalog if I lose my 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.

• Version of the RMAN catalog

  Hi, we are modernizing our databases 9i to 11g R2 R2 target, use us RMAN to make backups and our version of RMAN catlog is 10.2.0.2, I need to know if we continue with the current version of our data catalog RMAN or it must be upgraded to version equilent to our target databases You also have to configure Data protector with RMAN will be compatible with the lower version of the RMAN catalog database.
  
  Kind regards

  In our case when we improve our database to 10.2.0.2 to 10.2.0.4 didn't us connect with the catalogue. After the upgrade of the database catalog in 10.2.0.4 we took over with the RMAN backup.

  You can take the RMAN backup without a catalog database.

• The RMAN catalog database backup

  Version: 10.2.0.1.0
  
  We have created a database to host our RMAN catalog. This catalog contains info backup more RMAN stored scripts for 5 production databases. Now, we have to save this the RMAN catalog database.
  
  I'm going to use the control as the catalog file (IE. NOCATALOG) for our the RMAN catalog database. This should be good. Right? Best practices should I follow this topic?

  The catalog database can be saved as a BACKUP when COLD, if not in use for other purposes. Simple and easy backup and restore.

  Otherwise, you can make backups RMAN, but the this backup catalog database Controlfile.

  (You can even take copies to export the schema from the RMAN catalog!)

• connect to the RMAN catalog

  Hello
  10 g R2 on AIX. I want to backup using RMAn in a shell script:

  rman catalog rman/password@rmanrepo  target /

  How can I avoid the password:
  RMAN/Password@rmanrepo
  
  Thank you.

  The connection information in a batch file and ensure that only a privileged user (normally the 'oracle' user) has read/write access to this file.

  Batch file:

• Get information directly from the database of the RMAN catalog

  All,
  
  Assuming that one is unable to connect to the target database, but can directly connect to the catalog database:
  
  HostName: rman.prod.hobank.net
  User name of the operating system: oracle
  Oracle SID: RMAN
  User RMAN: rman
  
  When you are connected to the RMAN database as user rman (as shown below),
  
  [oracle@rman] sqlplus rman/rman
  
  What views I need to ask for the following information:
  
  -Backups performed
  -Backup type (for each backup)
  -Calendar
  
  Thanks in advance.
  
  Baffy

  You can get all the information backup recovery catalog views. For example, V$ RC_BACKUP_SET, V$ RC_BACKUP_PIECE, V$ RC_BACKUP_FILES, etc. and the view contains the type of backup as
  V$ RC_BACKUP_FILES. BACKUP. But I don't understand your 'calendar' means.

• The RMAN catalog questions

  Hello
  We plan application catalog RMAN various databases in our society. We had some problems that I write here and hope that people who have already done something like this would be able to guide me also highlight the pitfalls.
  
  Catalogues DB environment:
  Oracle 10.2.0.4 on Sun Solaris 5.10 (Sparc)
  
  Target environment:
  Various DBS, 10 g (10.2.0.4) mostly, a few (9.2.0.8) 9i and some 8i 8.1.7 (8.1.6,) for the most part, Sun Solaris and RHEL4/5
  
  Issues related to the:
  (1) it will work installation where there is a mix of the target db versions. Are there special requirements to do this job or any restriction
  (2) say the catalog db is down, and the accident of my database target. I would still be able to restore my available target without the catalog db database?
  (3) what are the best practices for the maintenance of catalog db so that it does not become a SPOF? (DG, etc..)
  
  Your help is very appreciated.
  
  Thanks in advance.

  2 Yes: If you still have at least a current control file: restoration should be transparent. If you've lost all control files, then you must recover the backup file DBID and control location and know how to restore in a DRP as situation
  3. my humble opinion, it is more important to know how to restore without a catalog of recovery available to use the high availability features for the recovery catalog database.

  Stream uses system global area (SGA) memory to store the information required to capture and apply. To allocate memory from the SGA for use by water courses, establish a flow pool in the SGA by specifying the STREAMS_POOL_SIZE parameter. The default value for this setting is 0, which means that the stream instead uses the shared pool memory. If you leave the STREAMS_POOL_SIZE to its default value (0), water courses will be considering using up to 10 percent of the SHARED_POOL_SIZE, then Oracle recommends at least 200 MB for the STREAMS_POOL_SIZE parameter. The source and destination databases must take account of this memory in the SGA.

• Cleaning of the RMAN catalog

  I left a cron job run Friday, so all the hours, he did a complete backup of my VTL. Here are the steps I did:
  
  run
  {allocate channel ch00 type sbt
  format = '% d_data_set % s_piece % p_ T_ %U '.
  PARMS "ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/a0221/oracle/tivoli/ufms609_jd1su221_tdpo.opt);
  delete the backup of database;
  output channel ch00;
  }
  
  
  
  After rman had removed all backupsets that looks like the catalog is keeping the information of these backups:

• Stop planned of the rman catalog database

  Hello
  We have several databases are backed up using RMAN and we use the catalog database.
  AIX, database catalog rman hosts servers will go for weekly maintenance and therefore this catalogue
  database is not available for 8-10 hours.
  
  We have jobs as
  (1) the hot backup jobs
  (2) cold backup jobs
  (3) archive files backups
  
  Can I know what would become of the work when the catalog database is down?
  Y at - there any preventive measure, we have to take or to do something once the
  Catalog database is running.
  
  Thank you
  Guz

  In this case, I think I need to move all these files on tapes
  just before the planned closure to avoid the ORA-257 archive error space then...

  I don't understand this. When you remove the connection to the catalog of your scripts, backups will continue to function - with only controlfile. This means that your archivelog backups will continue to run and to clear the archivelog destinations (I assume that you have a policy of suppression for archives).

• Nocatlog or the RMAN catalog

  Hello
  What are the advantage of hindsight with nocatalog (then the metadata stored in Controlfile) and disadvantage?
  
  Thank you.

  Hello
  for a single instance database, it is the easiest option, just make sure that you always backup controlfile with the database.

  If you use a recovery catalog, then it simply means that you have 2 databases to back up.

  In an environment of multi, 6 or more databases database, then a recovery catalog can be useful.

• what databases are recorded in the rman catalog?

  How can we find it?

  You can query rc_database to see I what databases are registered
