Need help with Oracle Database Backup & Restore Cold

Environment:

Oracle Version: 11.2.0.4

Platform: AIX

A few weeks ago, I had updated my Oracle 10.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.4 database. The customer changed his mind and now I downgrade to 10.2.0.1. Unfortunately, the compatibility setting is set to 11.2.0.4. So I can't use the lower upgrade scripts.

I had taken a cold backup of the database before the upgrade. Unfortunately, I missed save logs for recovery.

Is there a way I can always downgrade / recovery 10.2.0.1 with cold back? or is it simply not possible without the backup of redo logs.

Thanks in advance.

I had taken a cold backup of the database before the upgrade. Unfortunately, I missed save logs for recovery.

And what do YOU mean by "had taken a cold backup"?

Because in addition to what John said, you also need the correct initialization file.

Do you have a return of this init file which was taken at the same time as the backup?

I had updated my Oracle 10.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.4 database.

I suggest that you first reinstall the 10.2.0.1 version or Oracle before recovering your cold backup.

You must use the EXACT name of the folder structure and file that have been used originally.

See my response in this thread a few years ago:

Re: Restore incompatible cold backup

You will be able to simplify this process, some given that your backup is consistent, but the steps should help you to understand what to do.

One of my answers in THIS thread has real details for each of the steps in the other thread

  • Need help with Oracle SQL merge records according to date and term dates

    Hi all

    I need help to find this little challenge.

    I have groups and flags and effective dashboards and dates of term against these indicators according to the following example:

    GroupName Flag_A Flag_B Eff_date Term_date
    Group_ATHERETHERE2011010199991231
    Group_ANN2010010120101231
    Group_ANN2009010120091231
    Group_ANN2006010120081231
    Group_ANTHERE2004010120051231
    Group_ATHERETHERE2003010120031231
    Group_BNTHERE2004010199991231
    Group_BNTHERE2003010120031231

    As you can see, group_A had the same combination of (N, N) flag for three successive periods. I want to merge all the time periods with the same indicators in one. Where entry into force will be the most early (underlined) time period and end date will be later (underlined)

    So the final result should look like this:

    GroupName Flag_A Flag_B Eff_date Term_date
    Group_ATHERETHERE2011010199991231
    Group_ANN2006010120101231

    Group_BNTHERE2003010199991231

    It is the closest, I went to the solution


    I create two rows;

    Rnk1: partition by group name, order of eff_date / / desc: this grade will sort the records of the most recent and handed to zero for each group\

    Rnk2: (dense) partition by group name, flag_A, flagb: this grade for each combination of group\flag gives a number so that they are classified as "families".

    Then I use the function analytic min

    Min (eff_date) more (partition of GroupName, rnk2): the idea is that, for each Member of the same family, the new date is the min of the family (and the max for the date of the term), at the end I just need separate so that the duplicates are gone

    Now the problem. As you can see from the query below, records of 1 and 6 (as identified by rownum) are identified in the same family, because they have the same combination of flag, but they are not successive, so everyone must keep its own date of entry into force.

    If only I can make the distinction between these two that would solve my problem


    Query:


    Select rowNum,GroupName, flag_a, flag_b, eff_date, term_date, rnk1, rnk2

    , min (eff_date) more than (partition by GroupName rnk2( ) min_eff

    Of

    (

    Select rowNum,

    GroupName , flag_a , flag_b , eff_date , term_date

    rank() more than (partition by GroupName stopped by eff_date desc) rnk1

    DENSE_RANK() more than (partition by GroupName order by flag_A flag_B ( ) rnk2

    de dsreports . tmp_group_test

    ) order by rowNum

    Hi KSI.

    Thanks for your comments, you were able to distinguish between these lines highlight, but lost lines 2,3,4 which are supposed to have the same date min = 20060101.

    Please see the table wanted to see the final result I want to reach

    Thanks again

    This first answer is basically correct, but in the main query, you want to use the function MIN, not the analytical function aggregation and GROUP BY columns with common values, like this:

    WITH got_output_group AS

    (

    SELECT GroupName, flag_a, flag_b, eff_date, term_date

    ROW_NUMBER () OVER (PARTITION BY GroupName

    ORDER BY eff_date

    )

    -ROW_NUMBER () OVER (PARTITION BY GroupName, flag_a, flag_b)

    ORDER BY eff_date

    ) AS output_group

    OF tmp_group_test

    )

    SELECT GroupName, flag_a, flag_b

    MIN (eff_date) AS eff_date

    MAX (term_date) AS term_date

    OF got_output_group

    GROUP BY GroupName, flag_a, flag_b

    output_group

    ORDER BY GroupName

    eff_date DESC

    ;

    The result I get is

    GROUP_NA F F EFF_DATE TERM_DAT

    -------- - - -------- --------

    Group_A Y 20110101 99991231 Y

    N Group_A 20101231 20060101 N

    Group_A N 20051231 20040101 Y

    Group_A Y Y 20031231-20030101

    Group_B N Y 99991231 20030101

    which is what you asked for.

  • Need help with the automatic backup feature - please!

    Hello

    I recently started a flash animation and the AutoSave feature is enabled.  I got a good animation, but decided to play a little with it.  After a few moments, I decided to call one night and you exit the program ensuring NOT to save my work.  When you open this file the next time, I just found out that Flash has my file saved automatically while I was playing.  Now I have an animation worthless and have to start over again.  Is it possible to go back to an earlier backup or AutoSave at this point or I am about to do a lot of work again?

    Thanks to all who can help.

    As far as I know, the auto save feature is not able to track down the previous versions of the document being saved - that calls for a specified version control system. I think that Flash saves the file only if it is requested to the. There are several ways to enable or disable auto-save:

    1. in the dialog "new Document." You can choose to activate the automatic backup.
    2. In the "Properties of the Document" dialog box, you can set the check mark.

    If these are true, it will not happen of any economy car. The problem may be, there is also a section called ASR. Backup and recovery is not the same when it comes to Flash, but people tend to consider the same. You set the AutoRecover feature in preferences under general.

    • Windows: Edit > Preferences: general > auto salvage
    • Mac OS: Flash Professional > preferences: general > auto salvage

    Both has a default value of 10 minutes and it can confuse the user. Please see the document to make sure, that you have not disconnected ASR instead of the Auto-Save. You can do this:

    1. Go to preferences (Ctrl + U on Windows, and command + U on Mac OS) and check if the automatic recovery is set.
    2. Go to the properties of documents (Ctrl + Windows and cmd + D on Mac OS) and check if the Auto-Save is set.

    The first (in preferences) is ok to have fixed. It is the second, which could have caused problems for you.

  • Oracle database backup basics

    May I ask, from a point of view, low tech a little question on the backup/restore of Oracle databases. Are there tools commonly used for backup of Oracle database? And have you ever encounter the snowman DBA / other places you have worked to make bad backups? I'd like to hear horror stories about what can and will hurt in oracle database backups? It is a simple process, or wrong - this easy ens at the end and things / featuring data etc.?
    And the second part of the question is if you're looking for auditing oracle backup processes, that you are looking 'good evidence' that this is done in line with the policy /strategy?

    >

    Are there specific reasons why backups become unnecessary, i.e. what goes wrong, when it comes to restoration, it is not restore.

    There may be two reasons. One, for example, backups are accidentally deleted, partially or completely. Another way may be the backup is marked as obsolete due to the retention or some operations strategy as resetlogs who could not leave the backups in use.

    I was also wondering how easy it is perhaps "missing data" when planning a backup DB with RMAN? Is this possible? Have you ever seen do, and if so is there any 'specific' part of a database that is often overlooked during examination of what to plan for in the backup task?

    What do you mean by "missing data"? It would be possible if you don't take care of backups that you plan.

  • Need help with the data storage store, local array and network connections

    Need help with my ESXi 4.1 installation

    My hardware:

    I built a server with an Asus P6T whitebox, i7 920, 12 Gig RAM, NIC, Intel Pro1000 PT Quad, 3ware 9650SE-12ML with 8 1.5 TB SATA green in a raid 6 array gives me about 8 + TB with a spare drive all housed within a NORCO RPC-4220 4U Rackmount Server chassis.  I also have a 500 GB SATA drive which will hold the ESXi and virtual machines.

    The network includes a firewall, Netgear Prosafe FVS336G, GS724Tv of Netgear ProSafe 24 port Gigabit Managed Switch on a dhcp cable modem internet service provider.

    I also have 2 old NetGear SC101T NAS disks (4to) I want to connect to the system how some - at a later date have... data on them and want to transfer to the new storage array. I always looking into the question of whether they will work with ESXi 4.1, or I might have to only access it through Windows XP.

    My Situation:

    I have already installed ESXi 4.1 and vsphere client with no problems and it is connected to a dhcp cable internet service.  I've set up host via a dynamic DNS service name give me a static hostname on the internet.  I installed three machines to virtual OS successfully at the moment and now want to first start by creating a multimedia storage server which will use some of this new 8 TB array, then separate data storage for use with a web server small overhead storage and a backup.  It is a domestic installation.

    Help with the data store and network:

    I was doing some reading, because I'm new to this, and it looks like I'll probably want to set up my table via ESXi as a nfs disk format.  Now, the data store is usually in another physical box from what I understand, but I put my readers and ESXi all in the same box.  I'm not sure that the best way to put in place with grouped network cards, but I want to make this work.

    I understand that in ESXi 4.1 using iSCSi LUN must be less than 2 TB, but nfs - I should be able to add a bigger partition then 2 TB (for my multimedia) in nfs, right? or should I still add it separately as a separate 2 TB drives and then extend them to get the biggest space.

    Any suggestions or direct resources showing examples on how to actually add some parts of the table as data warehouses separate nfs.  I know that to go to the configuration tab, and then select Add to storage, and then select nfs. I have not my picture, but it's here that I don't know what to do because ESXi 4.1 system already has an address, should I put the same thing to the new data store array also (will it work?), and what should I use for the name of the folder and the store of data... just do something to the top.  I thought to later install Openfiler (for a multimedia storage using this table server) as a virtual machine, use the table with esxi so that I can access the same storage space with widows and linux-based systems.

    I also know I have to find a way to better use my quad nic card... put in place of virtual switches, grouping, etc HELP?

    Any direction, assistance, similar facilities to sample, suggestions or resources that would help would be great. I did a lot of hunting, but still a little confused on how to best to put in place.

    You must think of VMDK files of large databases with records of random size guest go read some data (a DLL or an INI file), maybe write some data back, then go read other data. Some files are tiny, but certain DLLs are several megabytes. It's random i/o all and heavy on the search time. IO Opsys is small random operations that are often sequential (go read data, write data, go read other data,...) so that deadlines are critical to the overall performance. That's why people say OPS are / s of reference and forget the MBs flow. The only time where you bulk transfers are when you read media (ISO files).

    Well, now forget all this. Actually the disk activity will depend on the specific applications (database? mail server? machines compiler?), but the above is true for boots, and whenever applications are idle. You should see the profile to know.

    RAID 10 is faster (and often more reliable) than RAID 5 or RAID-6 except in certain specific cases. In General RAID 10 is ideal for many random writes, since the calculation of parity for RAID-5 and - 6 adds to the overall latency between command and response - latency is cumulative if a little slow here and a little slow it adds up to a lot of overall slow synchronous especially with e/s on a network. OTOH RAID-5 and -6 can produce faster readings due to the number of heads, so you can use it for virtual machines that transfer bulk. Test. You may find that you need several different types subdashboards for best results.

    You said 3ware, they have some good grades on their site, but don't believe it. With my 9650 that I found myself with only a couple of their recommendations-, I put the (simple) table for allocation size 256 k, nr_requests at 2 x the queue_depth and use the planner date limit. I had the habit for the Ext4 file system formatted with stride and stripe-width synced to the table and used the options large_files with fewer inodes (do not use the huge_files option unless you plan to have single VMDK files in the terabyte range). Use a cache of great reading in advance.

    Virtual machines use VMDK files in all cases except raw iSCSI LUN that they treat native disks. VMDK is easier to manage - you can make a backup by copying the file, you can move it to a PC and load it into another flavour of VMware, etc. There could be some features iSCSI to your San as a transparent migration but nothing for me. NFS has less chatter of Protocol if latency lower times to complete an operation. NFS is good to read and write a block of data, that's all it boils down to.

    UPS is good, but it won't help if something inside the machine explodes (UPS does nothing if the PC power supply goes down). If the RAID card has an option for a battery backup module, so it can contain some writings in memory and may end up the disk i/o after replacing the power supply. 3ware also limits the types of caching available if help is not installed, and you get just the right numbers with the module.

  • I need help with an installation failure to interpret and troubleshoot a Setup log.

    Background: A few years ago, many editors of cinema used Final Cut Pro 6 (also contained in Final Cut Studio 2) for their editing projects.  Shared Apple Final Cut X uses a different format that is not compatible with FCP6.  Sometimes, these editors are called to work on a few historical projects that have been published in FCP6 and need this version to run now.

    Starting with OS X Lion, FCP6 would install not in Lion and thereafter.

    According research by Jeremy Johnston as noted on his blog, he discovered that Apple has inserted a file in the folder CoreServices in the Library folder of the system folder that causes versions the version Final Cut Pro X (and other older Apple programs in the same situation) do not settle.  He suggested changes to this file that would seek to prevent interfering with the installation of FCP6 in Lion, many users of final cut PRO 6 were successful in their efforts to install in Lion and work with it.

    Later in a discussion update on installing FCP6 in Mavericks, HawaiianHippie determined that the simplest way to perform the installation of FCP6 was simply copy this file and remove it from the system folder, install FCP6 and then restore the copied file:

    Then once approved, I need help to determine which component is causing the installation to fail and perhaps this element can be omitted from the installation:

    If this element is not required, then maybe FCP6 can be installed successfully without it.  And if that omitted element is necessary, perhaps a manual method to install it can be determined by pacifists.

    It is my goal to help those who need to install and use FCP6 on their new Macs running El Capitan.

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.

    No, and that has nothing to do with this old thread. This is a scam that last for years. Microsoft never does unsolicited phone calls.

  • Need help with screen Blus of death (BSOD) on my computer toshiba laptop

    Hello all, Ive had a little last week, or problems with my laptop. While playing a game (minecraft), I would randomly have a BSOD error and my laptop will re-start. Initially, I gave it no thought, but when it happened again, I decided to try to do a little research, but I'm not terrible with technology and other then I'm neither the case with my own research.

    If someone could point me in the direction of a few possible ways to get this problem.

    guys do you propose I make to the store and see if they can check it out, what would I need if I did.

    I got a program to read some sort of file "dump" made when occurs a BSOD, I publish what this program here says? the program is BlueScreenView, if yes, what I have post the spectator thing? There are has 2 main screens on it, SDO as Sho different dump files (which is on the top) and on the bottom, it lists the names of different files for each dump file I think that some of them highlighted.

    im not this product with tech so I don't know much but I need to post anything on my laptop or any information of the dumpfile and would have this info help in any way to determine the problem? just tell me what I have to post and ill get the information displayed in a response, thank you.

    -leoknighted

    PS: I don't think that playing minecraft is the cause of the BSOD and crashing, but I only get it when playing minecraft, so I don't know if minecraft is causing accidents and others. I watch videos and this all the time and I never have an accident. I'll try and play a different game and see if this causes my laptop down and the cause is perhaps high usuage to my laptop, as I've said games require a lot of power of a laptop/computer, if they are not the 'best' laptop for games. but yh, if someone thinks they can help me and need some information please tell me so I can get it for you. If you guys think it would be best to get a professional to look just mylaptop say, however im save as a last resort.

    Important: System Restore will return all system files not as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system. If it was your intention with this tool to recover a deleted file to non-system, try using a file instead of system restore recovery program.

     

    Important: while performing the check disk on the hard disk, if bad sectors can be found, then check disk will try to repair this sector. All the data available in this area may be lost.

     

    Custom installation WARNING: If you format the hard disk during the installation, the data files are saved in a Windows.old folder on the partition you installed Windows 7.  However, you should always back up the files. If you have encrypted data files, you may not be able to access them after installing Windows 7. If you have backed up your data files and then restored after Windows 7 is installed, you can delete the Windows.old folder.
