Creating a control file

I have a question about the creation of a control file. If I want to create another control file, do I need to put values/paths of the control file in the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement?

go in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory... you will find pfile/spfile.

This is because ' / oradata/ntstrman/temp01.dbf' is a temporary file not a data file, remove the reference to it and try again. When your database is open, you can add the temporary file in your temp tablespace with ALTER TABLESPACE TEMP ADD TEMPFILE ' / oradata/ntstrman/temp01.dbf'...

I understand, but I couldnot restoration l datafile by rman restore command coz base not at the stage of editing!

Appear you are not using the rman backup catalog and controlfile to help register rman backup.
in this case if you recreate the controlfile to way you will lose all your information backup of controlfile.
better restore controlfile from piece of backup or AutoSave. as restore controlfile from ""

Standby server DBName = 'STAND '.

When I create the standby control file and re - use to mount the database on the standby server that I get below error msg. Is there a way I can change the name of the database in the standby control file created by

It is a database, that I was not, up to now administer. But:
(1) I tried from the database with addressed controlfile (the one located in FRA). No luck. (Create pfile from spfile / startup pfile)
(2) the database is not mount / open. It hangs on the editing process. So I can not issue an alter database controlfile to trace.
It seems that my options are:
(1) manual creation of controlfile with open resetlogs option. This option is viable, but risky if we miss a datafile or something GOLD
(2) restoration of RMAN backup. The thing is that the most recent copy of automatic backup of controlfile is since a few days early (4 / 5 days).
I found this link: http://gavinsoorma.com/2009/07/rman-recovery-from-loss-of-all-control-files/
The procedure seems easy, but since this controlfile is not in the current SNA of database (data files, etc.). I'm not sure it if it would work.
So in short, I think I have an automatic backup controlfile and it's OK. but a little old. I can restore from this copy of CF?
Please I'm pressed real here, so help will be greatly appreciated!....
Thanks in advance!

Hello

It seems that my options are:

(1) manual creation of controlfile with open resetlogs option. This option is viable, but risky if we miss a datafile or something GOLD

(2) restoration of RMAN backup. The thing is that the most recent copy of automatic backup of controlfile is since a few days early (4 / 5 days).

It seems that you have few options,

In my opinion, you should start with option 2), but you have logs archived redo and all and all the backups of catalog and perform a restore.

After, if not works, you must manually create the control files, but you are right, you must carefully on all the data files. Here a log generated in the last level 0 RMAN backup could help you, don't forget the newspaper are all entries of data for backup files.

I wish to have more ideas to help you, but I have no other.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards

Retrieve by using the backup control file

Hello
I was reading a book called Pro Oracle Database Administration by Darl Kuhn. There, under the theme of "The valuation of the loss of all control files", noted that all data files and control files are restored from a backup, because if we do not restore the data files the RCS in control files would be lower than the data in these scenarios files. Since online redo logs and archived newspapers is applied to the data files to roll forward in a current consistent state and does not roll forward to a control file.
It is then mentioned to use 'recover the database by using the backup control file' then apply the logs (archive and redo if necessary).
However I personally tested this script in a test environment and to bring all the backup control file could issue the same command as above and recover the database.
My question is I know again and archives are applied only to the data files. So how does the control file are synchronized back when we do not restore the backup data files.
Thank you

If we do not restore the data files, the RCS in control files would be lower than the data files. Since online redo logs and archived newspapers is applied to the data files to roll forward in a current consistent state and does not roll forward to a control file.

It would be incorrect you have determined. You can only restore the control files. You can manually create a control file and always do the restore.

My question is I know again and archives are applied only to the data files. So how does the control file are synchronized back when we do not restore the backup data files.

The control file is updated as well.

See you soon,.

How can I specify location of the control file when the manual creation of DB?

DB version: 11.2.0.4
OS: Oracle Linux 6.6
The CREATE DATABASE command creates the control file.
CREATE DATABASE command is executed once you start the instance in NOMOUNT State as shown below.
SQL > startup nomount pfile=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initBRCPRD.ora
SQL > create database 'BRCPRD '.
MaxInstances 32
MAXLOGHISTORY 1
maxLogFiles 192
maxlogmembers 3
..
.
.
< snipped >
When you create the database manually, we can define the control_files parameter in the init.ora as below and control file will be created at this location. Right?
control_files = ("" / u01/oradata/BRCPRD/BRCPRD_control01.ctl","/u01/oradata/BRCPRD/BRCPRD_control02.ctl "")
When I was generating the DB using DBCA GUI creation scripts, it asks to enter the location of the Online redo logs and control files.
I entered my desired location. But, I couldn't find CONTROL_FILES parameter in the init.ora file generated the DBCA. This is why I got confused. I think that DBCA is internally somehow. So thought I'd post it here.

Hi John, OP

Just checked the init.ora file created by DBCA. Although the parameter CONTROL_FILES is undefined, db_create_file_dest = '+ DATA_DG1' was created. OMF default location is defined by the db_create_file_dest parameter.

So, I could safely use this script for the manual creation of DB, and during the CREATE DATABASE command execution, oracle will place CONTROL_FILES + DATA_DG1 using the format;

+DiskGroup/dbname/filetype/filetypetag.file.incarnation

Hi, Frank.

Very nice work Helios (as usual).

Thank you, I share just what I know thatsall

Thank you, I learned something new today.

The same for all users of the forum

Normally, I clone cold backups so I don't need to manually create the controlfile.

I see that your solution is contained in the following note;
"Cloning of Oracle Application 11i with rapid Clone /R12 - database (9i/10 g / 11 g) using on Open Database [ID 760772.1] hot backup.

You are correct, we mainly use this method for hot backup-Section advance clonning

But I'm still curious to know if Nicolas is to create a clone of a hot backup or a backup to cold, and why he uses the 'ARCHIVELOG' option on his clone.

It depends, for me I prefer to choose option NOARCHIVELOG and NORESETLOG

SQL * Loader Control File - Error 510
Hello!

I am trying to load a file TXT using SQL * Loader, my control file is a little too big I guess: 83KO.

The problem is the message I get:

SQL * Loader: release 10.2.0.3.0 - Production on Qua game 16 11:18:58 2009

Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.

SQL * Loader-510: O registro fisico dados (C:\Teste\Exe548teste_zanthus.old.ctl) e but full o' maximo land (2147473647).

The language is Brazilian Portuguese.

But the size of the file is only 83 KB, not the maximum size. I'm confused.

The data is a TXT file with more than 1000 characters per line.
The problem is that the generated control file is 'bigger' than the maximum. The error is not from the data file (error in the control file, not the data file). If you want I can put the file here and a sample of the data file too.

I guess that is not find expressions of the folklore of the control file, but there a tank < ENTER > at the EOF (CR + LF (I think).

I really want to split the data file or in multiple files control file and then control the import with the software, which would be boring...

I don't know if this information helps but my control file using multiple INTO TABLE...

Thank you!
I still feel that the problem is the end character.

André Luis wrote:

The comparison is ok since I have already tested with a small control file.

The problem is not the size of the file, the problem is the size of the line, with a small control file sql loader to read the file only online, and in this case it works because it is under the limit for the size of the line. (The smal file perhaps has the same problems with the characters of late, but due to its size it recount not error.)

I hope that I missed something in the creation of the control file, I think he tries to read data from it, despite the fact that I have to tell him otherwise, because I saw something to tell the size limit for a control file with data inside...

The control file syntax is OK, I don't think that he search data in the control file.

I insist on the fact that you are creating the control file with another editor, otherwise...

Incompatible control file and the data after the backup files
The company that I work has servers where some components are new more, so have a backup in the event of hardware failure. If we intend to do some clones of 1:1 of the current servers to change them in case of emergency. As most of the necessary data is not volatile and we reset stuff in any case, there is no need of replicaton, replace an old version of the database works very well. Now we could not easily get substitutes for our old material, so we had to set up new machines. And that's where my trouble starts, because now I had to actually set up the system and the database rather than do a simple copy of byte to byte. I'm mainly a programmer, using Oracle of 'other' side, but as our DBA is yet to come and the work must be done now...

So I did some reasearch and decided to do a normal backup of the cold. I have dumped the controlfile, copied data and configuration files to the new server and read the prompt SQL (no mistake there) control file. After some initial hiccups with the system (memory, etc.), I was finally about to start the database, only to get an error ORA-01190 ("1 database or control file is from before the last RESETLOGS").

I guess I did is a bad thing when you restart the database (used the wrong part of the control file) or when the copy of the data. The original data have split two readers for simplicity and logical, I copied their entire contents. So maybe I don't not copied to little but too?

As I said in the introductory paragraph, I'm not a DBA, but I'm willing to learn and listen. I don't expect a complete solution, but some guidelines when to look and what to avoid. Any help on this would be appreciated.
Currently, there are some points need clarification,

1. you don't need to re-create the control file, if you have a clean shutdown database and copied all the files at the same time (data files, control files etc.)

2. If you stop DB, copied files of data but do not copy the control at shutdown file, you must re-create the control file.

3. the error ORA-19909 suggested you resetlog prior to recovery.

ORA-19909: string data file belongs to an orphan incarnation
Cause: The data file specified has been restored from a backup that was taken during a period of time that has already been abandoned by a resetlogs operation or Oracle cannot identify what incarnation of database file belongs. The alert log contains more information.
Action: Restore a backup of this file that belongs to the current or a previous incarnation of the database. If you use RMAN to restore, RMAN automatically selects a good backup.

4. it would be better that again follow you from scratch the article.

for example,.

Copy the files you did copy over the data base to the bottom of the old server,
modify the control file creation script

RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;

The ORA-00200 control file could not be created in oracle under redhat linux

with the creation of the database by using script under redhat linux I got following error. Anyone know not so please guide me.
ORA-01501: CREATE DATABASE failed

ORA-00200: control file could not be created

ORA-00202: control file: ' / home/core/Databases/ControlFile/ctl2.dat'

ORA-27040: create file error, cannot create the file

Linux-x86_64 error: 2: no such file or directory

Please check if the directories are present or not.

CD/home/core/databases / ControlFile.

If the directories are present, check for the permissions on the mountpoint.

LS - ltr/home/core/Databases

LS - ltr/home/core/Databases/ControlFile

The permissions should be user and group name through which you create the controlfile.

I hope that this information is sufficient. If the problem solved with this brand then kindly as correct answer later for others

Thank you

Hello;

That's what I'd do:

Primary backup (change in your directory as needed)

RMAN RUN {
allocate channel d1 type disk;
backup format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/df_t%t_s%s_p%p' database;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/al_t%t_s%s_p%p' archivelog all;
backup current controlfile for standby format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/sb_t%t_s%s_p%p';
release channel d1;
}

Move the backup and duplicate like this:

rman target sys/password@PRIMARY auxiliary /

RMAN> run {
allocate channel C1 device type disk;
allocate auxiliary channel C2 device type disk;
duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck;
}
