Closed APB hot backup

Similar Questions

• Hot backup question

  Our DBA functions are currently outsourced, and I'm just curious about something.
  
  We asked them to copy a schema from our database of Production (during the day) to its equivalents in the acceptance and Test environments. We found a problem in that the maximum value of a primary key on a table was 100121, and the sequence used to generate the value of the primary key is only 100081.
  
  Is a risk to a backup in hot and any annex a backup must be taken after hours? Or maybe did something wrong?
  
  
  Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi

  If the request was to copy only a single schema, then it is unlikely that a "hot" backup would have been used. Most likely exp/imp or expdp/impdp would have been used to export the Production schema and import it into the other two databases.

  The sequences are always 'a problem' when export - import is used when the database is active. Export of the sequence and the export of the table (or tables) using the sequence are not at the same time / SNA so that the values can differ as they have updated in the source database.
  The plan is to restore order in the target database by manually incrementing until it reaches the desired target (100122).

• Hot backup

  We take the backup hot at 18:00 (daily, filled in 1-2 hours).
  At 23:30 all archive log files will be separately BackupExec backup and the log files are deleted from the file archive of the Oracle.
  
  Day before yesterday, for some reason, the copy of the data file hung up (after alter database begin backup has been published in the Hot backup script)
  That the copy has been hung up, 'alter database end backup' has been issued, the PB was in backup mode.
  The average while the deleted BackupExec database journal archive file Archive of the Oracle.
  
  Yesterday hot backup was completed successfully, only alter database begin backup failed (ORA-01146: cannot start online backup - folder 1 is already in the backup)
  After the hot backup 'alter database end backup' was published successfully.
  
  Given that logs archiving failed whien database is always in backup mode, will all the data generated duing the applied to the data file backup mode?
  
  Please notify.
  
  Thanks in advance,

• When use REUSE/SET, no.-ARCHIVELOGS in create controlfile in HOT BACKUP?

  I am an Oracle DBA intern and I have the following queries. Good response with detailed explanations, I want to get my deleted concepts!

• Where is the official Oracle documentation that describes the hot backup?

  I used the cruelly utility failure to search for Metalink and Google, but the closest thing, I found is a description on "ask Tom".
  
  I'm looking for official Oracle documentation that describes what is happening internally during a hot backup. There are many websites and blogs out there that describe, but I'm looking for a description of Oracle themselves. The only things I found in the Oracle documentation until now is to know how to start and stop the hot backup, but not what is happening internally. GR 11, 2 preference if it made a difference.
  
  Thanks in advance.

  Hello;

  Its probably gone RMAN covers this.

  The closest would be:

  Backup and recovery reference 11g Release 2 (11.2) E10643-06

  Or

  Backup and recovery User Guide 11 g Release 2 (11.2) E10642-05

  See Chapter 8 - Concepts of backup RMAN - online backups and backup Mode

• UNDOTABLESPACE and TABLESPACE TEMP in cold or hot backup database

  Hello
  
  I have a BACKUP, including logs generated after the backup archive. What is the use of the UNDOTABLESPACE and TABLESPACE TEMP datafile data file backup? When it is used?
  
  
  Kind regards
  
  007

  >
  I have the archives which have all entries are committed in it. Undoinformation is necessary for the restoration and recovery of the database? Can u explain more clearly?
  >

  The archives are as congested entries of redo logs. And the redo logs contain all changes to the database. Information cancellation will be there in the segments of cancellation that there can be some uncommitted transactions active in the segments of cancellation. Cancellation information is necessary to put the database in a consistent state. It is one of very important storage similar to the control file and system tablespace to bring a database

  Edited: Imagine a scenario. You make a backup hot at 07:00. And there are a lot of transactions happening before and during hot backup. For ex, I run a massive update to a table. This will cause the recovery to write logs of recovery that will be eventually written to logs archived. Now, you finish the backup mode. But I have not validated or cancelled my transaction. Say to the reasoning, I roll back the transaction.

  Now, you restore the backup. Do you think that my transaction will be in inconsistent state? Redo logs and archiveed newspapers had my transaction changes/redo entries. If you are not using undo in recovery segments, what will happen to my operation that I rolled back? Without cancel, half of my transaction (even if they were not truly committed) will be sitting in the database. This is where undo tablespace helps us in rolling back the transaction during your recovery. Remember, the cancellation information "peuvent" not all in recovery if you do not a complete database recovery. But Oracle should know that. If you need to undo tablespace in your backup set.

  I hope it's clear now

• Hot backup maintained by users script? 11g (Unix) good measures?

  I'm looking for a script to hot backup maintained by users for GR 11, 2 under Unix. My client does not want to use RMAN.
  
  I think that the main steps are:
  
  -alter system switch logfile
  -change the system log archive current
  -alter database begin backup
  -alter database backup controlfile (and also the backup on the track)
  -copy the data files, archives, remake, controlfiles to another location
  -take the database out of hotbackup mode
  -J' have also capture spfile and other config files
  
  Recovery is just restore to the original location, at STARTUP and backup of the end.
  
  Basically, there may be cases where we have archives that have been made after the hotbackup we want to apply. In this case, it is RECOVER database with the HELP of BACKUP CONTROLFILE until CANCEL in order to apply the archives.
  
  His right?

  After you take the database out of Hot Backup, you must switch logfile (preferably several times) and backup generated archivelogs.
  You can back up archivelogs while the database is in backup mode but you must also back up the first archivelog (s) after the backup of the end.

• Need help with RMAN archive destination error during hot backup

  Hello
  
  Oracle 8.0.6, Win 2000 Server.
  
  We take the cold daily backup as our backup strategy. We wanted to implement the backup hot. If one day, I turned on the log mode archive and set the directory to archive in F:\drive to store all archived generated. I took the backup and put the database in noarchive log mode. We continued with offline backup.
  
  After a few days, I wanted to test the hot backup again. I created the directory of the archive in E:\archive\ instead of F:\archive\. When I started the hot backup, all files have been copied except the archives.
  
  The error was:
  
  RMAN-03022: compilation command: sql
  RMAN-06162: SQL statement: alter system archive log current
  RMAN-03023: executing command: sql
  
  RMAN-03022: compilation command: backup
  RMAN-03026: recovery error release of channel resources

  RMAN-06089: journal archived F:\ARCHIVE\ARCH1_0000327116.ARC not found or at odds with catalog
  
  Complete recovery manager.
  
  RMAN is looking for the destination of the journal archive old i.e. 'f:\archive\ '. I don't have the backup of the old archives of destination. I put the new destination to archive E:\archive\ in the initorcl.ora file, rman is always looking for destination F:\archive\.
  
  Please suggest what to do. How can I remove old information from archive of controlfile and say rman, look in the new archives destination i.e. E:\archive\

  Hello
  WOW 8.0.6.
  Maybe you can run a cross?

  change archivelog than any overlap;

  Update
  Found some docs online for 8.0
  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/A58617_01/server.804/a58396/TOC.htm
  She does not mention the overlap.
  With the change command, you should be able to do the cleaning as well.
  If you have moved the archivelogs to the new location, you can use catalog according to the doc.
  Kind regards

• A development database hot backup

  RDBMS version: 10.2.0.4
  Operating system: Solaris 5.10
  
  One of our development database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode, and we want to keep it this way. Every Sunday, we want to make a complete this DB RMAN backup. Since developers (WE, India, China) could be working from home on Sunday and need to connect to the DB, we cannot stop this DB. I think to create a hot RMAN backup script that will be

  1. Place the DB in ARCHIVELOG mode temporarily
  2. Startup (OPEN) the DB and Take a FULL BACKUP including the archive logs with a script
   run {
   allocate channel m1 TYPE DISK connect 'sys/fls'  FORMAT   '/u05/rbkp/ptcp_%U.rmb';
   backup as compressed backupset database tag 'full'  plus archivelog; 
  }
  
  3. After the Hot backup is done, the shell script should place the DB in MOUNT stage and revert back to NOARCHIVELOG mode   and startup

  The RMAN full backup taken using the strategy above held for restoration and recovery?
  
  I can't put the commands for the placement of the DB in ARCHIVELOG mode in the RMAN run block. I can?

  You have a valid backup, but you will not be able to perform a FULL restore. You said that you will return noarchivelog mode after the backup. When your database requires recovery of the media in this mode, you will have more often a gap between the last saved archivelog and real online newspaper. If you can only make one point incomplete recovery - until the last archivelog available in the backupset.

• Hot backup - recovery time

  I have 2 questions about the hot backup concept please:
  
  Let's say I started the backup to hot at 09:00 and ends at 11:00.
  
  (1) I can recover the database to the point of 09:00 and on (recover until time) as long as I have all archive logs generated between 9 and 11:00, right?
  
  (2) I can restore database to the top at 11:30 so if I have logs archiving between 09:00 and 11:30?
  
  Please correct me if I'm wrong.
  
  Thank you

  The backup of the Data2 began at 10:01, but you must recover the database at 09:29. You can only do if you restore time data1 data2 (and all the other data files!) a prior backup archivelogs and applied the backup and roll forward at 09:29.

• hot backup control file?

  I wonder and wants to know... we can put hot backup control file... If so, then isn't the content of the controlfile changed after backup?

  alter database backup controlfile to 'd:\backups\cntrlfilebackup.dbf reuse';
  alter database backup controlfile to trace as 'd:\backups\cntrlfile_trace.txt reuse';

• More redo generation during hot backup

  Hi all
  I want to know more over the generation of redo during hot backup.
  I know that in this case the data file headers are frozen. But I want to know how the whole thing goes. All did this experiment practically?
  Did any problems of performance because of this?
  
  
  
  Thank you
  Rafi.

  Hmm well, it basically means like this, assuming you have a block filled with 1s like that,

  ----
  1
  ----
  1
  ----
  1
  ----
  

  And this is the copy of the block that was sent to the backup by you and was taken over by the command cp o/s. While the cp command will make a backup of the block as it can be read much more small piece that, suppose that he would start with the 1st part of the block and starts copying to the o/s somewhere. At the same time feel, DBWR peaks upwards again and written on block 2, like that.

  ----
  1
  ----
  2
  ----
  1
  ----
  

  It can from the flie is always online and is available to be used by the database. Now, you have a problem. The image you sent for backup isn't th that is here now. Next time what cp command would return, he would find 2 instead of one in the 2nd part of blok and copy it since it is a mute command when comes to oracle. So now that you have in what you wanted in the backup and the backup are not the same images. You have a cracked now block which is of no use for the recovery. To this end, in the case of the hot backup, the first image of the block time is copied and is maintained. This saves us from the State to have 2 there. We have all the 1s who sent us. Now, if in the case, dbwr also changes the block, the original help oracle reover the block properly.

• hot backup managed user problem

  Jin
  
  A few days ago, I took the managed user my database hot backup. And then, to check if the data file are in correct mode, I ran the query:
  
  SQL > select * sauvegardΘ v$.
  
  FOLDER # STATUS CHANGES # TIMES
  ---------- ------------------ ---------- ---------
  1. NO ASSETS 6302304272 23 JANUARY 10
  2. NO ASSETS 6302305573 23 JANUARY 10

  5. NO ASSETS 6302305573 23 JANUARY 10
  6 0 NO ASSETS
  7 0 NO ASSETS
  
  
  
  And, I didn't know that all data files have completed end backup mode. But today, when I query v$ datafile_header to check the column fuzzy then I was shocked to see the result below:
  
  SQL > select fuzzy from v$ datafile_header;

  I use oracle 9.2.0.8 on windows server 2003.
  
  
  Although the view of backup $ v shows the same 'NOT ACTIVE' because all data files.this make me very confused.
  
  
  Please give me some feedback...
  
  Kind regards

  V$ BACKUP and V$ DATAFILE_HEADER are two different views. Why confuse yourself? They are there to meet different requirements.

  V$ BACKUP is used to check if a data file is in backup mode.

  V$ DATAFILE_HEADER is used to check the header of a data file. Of course a datafile is BLURRED when the database is OPENED - independently of the question whether an online backup is running or has run earlier.

• HOT backup database 10g express edition

  Dear Sir
  I use oracle database 10g express edition with 3.2.1 apex.
  
  I'm planing to db.here hot backup entire database is 24 x 7 running... fashion archive
  Info
  
  pFile, control, password file
  System datafile
  SYSAUX datafile
  Undo tablespace file
  temporary tablespace file
  redo log files
  application data tablespace file
  application index tablespace file
  
  for backup of the entire database HOT including apex WORKSPACE... which tablespace or files are REQUIRED for backup?
  
  Thank you
  Engr.M.K Chowdhury

  Hello

  To be convinced, you can do the following:

  alter database begin backup;
  

  Then, you check the backup status of your datafilles with the following query:

  select file#, status
  from v$backup
  order by file#;
  

  If the status is ACTIVE, this means that the data files are in backup mode, and you can copy them.

  The redologs online, you can save them but this is not mandatory, because you have logs archived.

  It is important to get all archived logs generated during (and after) the backup.

  To do this, you can run the following right after the hot data files backup:

  alter system archive log current;
  

  It will generate a log archived that you need to include in your backup.

  If you lose all your data (including the redologs online), after you restore the data files, you need to retrieve
  the database. During this operation, you apply all archived logs and then you reset the redologs. It is a
  incomplete recovery.

  However, for the online redo logs, it is important to multiplex to another disk. So, if you lose members on
  a single disk, you can perform a full restore with their copy on the second disc.

  Hope this helps.
  Best regards
