  The backup and Restore Center to see if the last backup was successful or not? I use the NAS drive for backups, which is not always on. However the backup utility Windows 7 does not show at all. It shows just the time of last and next backup schedule.

  Hello
  
  Whenever a backup is validated, you will receive a message indicating that the backup was successful. You can also see the backup connects to the following location:
  C:\Windows\Logs\WindowsBackup.

• How to restore the Rman incremental level 0 backup if the SID is different?

  Hi Experts,
  I had a little problem with restore rman backup of level 0. I have backup rman for oracle 11.2.0.1.0 - 64 bit and restore the server to Test 11.2.0.1.0 - 64 bit.
  
  Problem:
  Sid = prd production server
  Sid = prderp test server
  
  Operating system is Oracle linux 5 on both servers.
  
  How to restore Rman if the SID is different?

  Hello

  Refer to this http://shivanandarao.wordpress.com/2012/04/19/duplicating-primary-database-to-a-new-host-without-connecting-to-the-primary-database-in-oracle-10g11g/

  You need to restore it under the same name as you have in the production and later change the dbname using the NEST.

  If you don't want to go with this method, then I suggest you to go with the method of double RMAN.

  http://www.Oracle-base.com/articles/11g/duplicate-database-using-RMAN-11gr2.php
  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/backup.111/b28270/rcmdupdb.htm

• How knowledge/check if the RMAN backup was performed using a current control file or database catalog?

  Hello

  How knowledge/check if the RMAN backup was performed using a current control file or database catalog? I mean RMAN prompt or sqlplus is it possible to know.

  Thank you

  You're welcome my friend

  You can see them using two methods.

  as I mentioned above, you can see them connect to the catalog database and you can query using the view that I sent

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmreprt.htm#BRADV89601

  the other method is the list command, you must use the list command after connecting using rman "rman target / catalog cat_user/cat_pass@catdbtns" command

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmreprt.htm#BRADV8136

  Check the value of the control_file_record_keep_time parameter. The default value is 7 days. in the output of the list command, if you can see the old backups to the value, you must be sure that the backup information comes from the catalogue database

  SELECT * FROM parameter $ v where name = 'control_file_record_keep_time '.

  an example of command list

  the list of completed database before backup ' sysdate-10'.

  10g is desupported for a long time.
  Your question is you backup to a network drive.
  The solution provided by Donald Burleson is correct.
  Why the site no longer works is not clear that you provide no error message, or whatever.
  Course, a simple solution would be to buy an extra drive to connect directly to the server.
  Your post is poorly understood why you plan to implement that.
  Also, your statement on the test server is far too vague. You did not yet provide no error message.

• How to run the rman output files, which are more days of retention

  I use for my rman backup tasks.

  I have format my output files of rman to a specific path, instead of the fast recovery area.

  Also, I spend below command in RMAN

  RMAN > CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY to RECOVERY OF 7-DAY WINDOW;

  And the "control_file_record_keep_time" parameter is also set to 7.

  I've been running rman for 8 days. Everything seems good. But I find several rman output files are more than 7 days.

  So, I just want to know how to handle the rman output, which is longer than 7 days files?

  In fact, I assumed that these older files should be obsolete files, but rman is not to declare that they are obsolete.

  So how do now?

  Windows 7 day average recovery rman will protect everything necessary for the recovery to any point in time in the last 7 days.  In fact, in the last 604800 seconds.  The same will mean that he need the files OLDER than that.  Simply because a backupset is older that your recovery window does NOT as yet, it is obsolete.  Any recovery begins with the last FULL or INCREMENTAL backup ZERO before the recovery point.  And it does not matter how old the backup is, it will be obsolete.  Suppose you take a level 0 backup, 1 January and for the rest of the year taking nothing but level 1 and backup archivelog.  31 December than and only the full backup will still not be obsolete, even though he is a year old.

  ============================================================================

  removal of the obsolescence of RMAN

  Day 1 - level 0

  Day 2 - level 1

  Day 3 - level 1

  Day 4 - level 1

  Day 5 - level 1

  Day 6 - level 1

  Day 7 - level 1

  Day 8 - level 0

  Day 9 - level 1

  Day 10 - level 1

  Day 11 - level 1

  Day 12 - level 1

  Day 13 - level 1

  Day 14 - level 1

  On day 14, your window of 7 days is up to date 7.  A recovery to date must begin by restoring the backup of level 0 of the day 1. So it may be outdated.  Some level 1 between 1 and 6 days backups might be obsolete, depending on if they are incremental or cumulative, and it also happens with archivelogs.

• Restore the RMAN backup on another server

  Hello

  ENV: Oracle 10 g 2 64 bit, RHEL 5.8 64 bit on ASM, Database size = ~ 1.3 to

  Backup RMAN of PROD will FRA and then backed up to tape. I have limited access to the PROD because it is maintained by 3rd party.

  My client is planning to move this database on their own datacenter (from the 3rd party data center). For test purposes, I asked DBA of 3rd party to provide us with an export of drawings required data pump. Export takes about 8 hours, and the import takes the same time to the new location. To copy the files exported to new locations takes another few hours (over the network). The total size of the dump file is around 500 GB. Thus, a whole cycle of Export-Import-copy takes about ~ 20 + Hrs.

  I want to try another option to reduce the time required for the updating of the database of PROD and which is "use RMAN backup of PROD ' and restore it on the data center server. RMAN full backup takes ~ 4hrs PROD and the restoration should be at the same time (new server has better and faster HW, storage with a SSD). I found this thread very useful on the Oracle Forms on this topic:

  Restore backup RMAN on another server

  This thread contains very good example for a restoration of database on the file system.

  I have a bit of confusion because my database uses ASM. The default location of the backups in PROD is FRA (on ASM == > db_recovery_file_dest = + FRA ). If I understand correctly, the RMAN backup must be in the same place where he was on the PROD Server - i.e. the diskgroup FRA.

  If I get a copy of the part 3 RMAN backup, how would I copy on FRA?

  OR can / should I just change the init parameter "db_recovery_file_dest" on the new server to point to the file system directory where the backup (say "/ ora_backup") and RMAN will pick up and restore the database?

  Please advise!

  Best regards

  You can restore the backup files to any location, then you must configure the channel using the "CONFIGURE CHANNEL device type disk format 'new location ';

• EBS R12: How to clone an RMAN backup online?

  Hi hussein.
  
  I saw before in this forum, how to copy a database from an RMAN backup.
  
  The scenario is that I have a PROD on ProdServer instance.
  I want to create a DEV instance clone on the same ProdServer server, by using the RMAN backup.
  I want to clone the database only, this is just to check if my RMAN backup is restorable or legible or complete or etc.
  
  But I can't find the notes. :(
  
  Can you help me research it please?

• Pull on the RMAN backup archive logs?

  Environment:

  Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris

  Physical standby

  I have a gap of journal archive at the moment.  The missing archive logs have been saved on the primary and have not yet been transferred to waiting due to some maintenance work performed on the standby server.

  The database will be able to recognize that the missing archivelog files are in the RMAN backup files, restore them and send them to the update server standby for application?

  If not, will it restore manually, copy them to the standby server and save them for their application?

  Thanks a lot for your help!

  -gary

  Were the archivelogs deleted on the primary once they have been saved? If they have been deleted on the primary, then you can:

  1 manually transfer the backup to forward files

  2 replace the archivelog destination configured on the eve

  3 restart the managed recovery on the standby process, and the computer should be able to detect and apply the missing archivelogs.

  If they have not been deleted on the primary and are always available in the archivelog directory configured, then the process of Data Guard should be able to detect and automatically fix the gap.

  If you have a long interval archivelogs missing and you use + ASM, you can also try to use an incremental backup to roll forward the database pending, this article provides a good step by step: the steps for Rolling forward a standby database using RMAN incremental backup. (Doc ID 836986.1)

• Switch journal during the RMAN backup

  I saw a lot of scripts in RMAN backup that a manual log switching is performed in the first line of the script? That is - this goal, just to write the changes necessary to rebuild instructions DML/DDL of redo log online and start archiving process so db runs in log mode archive?

  This could be the only reason, but even this is not necessary, as would a log switch automatically to push the current log file again to do is archive log and include it in the RMAN backup.

  It is not possible to treat the logical structure of RMAN database. As you cann't backup or restore specific table or a view with RMAN, cann't exclude you too

  But you have only one option: move this specific table to new tablespace and exclude this backup tablespace
