Restore database from a specific location

Hello

I'm on 11.2.0.3 on Windows 2008.

I have a backup of my database of production on the network drive and I need to use this backup to construct my test database. To build the database of test, I copied the backup to network drive on my local drive on the test server and then restored the controlfile. After that, I catalogued the backup to local drive.

Now, RMAN can recognize the backup on the network location (as controlfile has all the information of all backups) and also local backup. If I try to restore, it goes on the network to get to restore backupset. Is there a way I can ask RMAN to use my local backup rather than go on the network for the elements of the network drive backup?

I know there is a "uncatalog" option available, that should be used for each backup piece and so tedious.

(1) can I force RMAN to use my local backup only without going to the network drive for the archives?

(2) at - it order to complete wipe all backups in a swoop of the repository so that I can catalog only local backups before I run the restore command?

SAQ

Yes, that's what I did.

I should end this question by concluding that there is not available for the following commands

(1) cannot specify backup location in the RESTORE command to mention a specific return, if there are several backups available.

(2) there is no single command to remove all items from backup to a single backup set, from the RMAN Repository

    Hey 'Vista' - leeChallenged

     
    the only system restore point that you create is for today
    You cannot create a restore point for yesterday etc.
    they are either made or they are not made
    go back two or theee weeks to system restore to before he was hit if the dates of restoration are available

    QUESTION: Do I need to restore a full database to be consistent?
    =====================================================

    You don't have to restore the full database. You just need to restore the backup controlfile and restore the database.
    The steps you mentioned are good restore the controlfile. After recovery, you must open the database in resetlogs.

    Also, you can take a look at this http://neeraj-dba.blogspot.com/2011/04/loss-of-control-file-in-various.html

  • Creating a database from backups of the production test

    Hello Experts,

    I'm a newbie with a lot new in Oracle. I got the backup inc0 (which includes even backup controlfile) (PROD) production base taken by RMAN and asked to create a new test database (TEST) by using the backup. Can someone please give me the steps on how to restore and create the new database?

    The 10.2.0.4 basic version
    I am aware of the concept of duplicated with RMAN database, but I was asked to do not connect to the target (PROD) database while duplicating. So, I need to create the test database using the prod database backup without being connected to the PROD database. Please guide me.

    Hello Jenna_c

    I suppose that you created a controlfile to standby to primary (SQL > alter database create standby controlfile as ' / tmp/stby.ctl '; in primary, then copy it to sleep)

    and you have been used for the standby instance nomount (with the settings standby.ora... file) and restore it from the last backup, if you have a backup tape of stb you can restore backup site, if you have a backup to disk, it must be accessible on the same path to the backup site. (NO RECOVERY)...

    Then you have an instance of State nomount standby:

    SQL > alter database base_de_donnees eve of Mount;

    Here, you can create the redologs Eve... it is not mandatory...

    SQL > alter database add standby logfile group 11 ('/ u01/apps/oracle/oradata/STANDBY_redo_11a.dbf',)

    u02/apps/Oracle/oradata/STANDBY_redo_11b.dbf') size 100 M;

    SQL > alter database add standby logfile Group 12 ('/ u01/apps/oracle/oradata/STANDBY_redo_12a.dbf',)

    u02/apps/Oracle/oradata/STANDBY_redo_12b.dbf') size 100 M;

    SQL > alter database add standby logfile Group 13 ('/ u01/apps/oracle/oradata/STANDBY_redo_13a.dbf',)

    u02/apps/Oracle/oradata/STANDBY_redo_13b.dbf') size 100 M;

    SQL > alter system set standby_file_management = auto; (throwing in the primary and standby)

    then, we put an instance ensures in recovery mode:

    SQL > change database recovery managed standby database disconnect from the session.

    in the primary, we check status of dest archive remotely.

    Select * from v$ archive_dest_status;

    sleep mode check us status of recovery:

  • Restore from a different location from the original location of RMAN backup

    All,

    Sorry to bother you on this simple question, but it's something I've never done before:

    Background
    =======

    My sys admin is currently copying a full backup of the default RMAN backup location to another location on the drive (say/u01/oracle/backup).
    The backup was performed using RMAN and in my view, THAT RMAN knows that his initial backup location. See RMAN permanent setting below:

    SET UP DEFAULT DISK DEVICE TYPE;
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT for DEVICE TYPE DISK TO ' / banksys_arch0/backup/ora_cf%F';
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' TO '%F ';
    SET UP THE DEVICE TYPE DISK BACKUP FOR PARALLELISM BACKUPSET TABLET 1 TYPE;
    SET UP THE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP BACKUPSET TYPE;
    CONFIGURE BACKUP OF DATA TO DISK FILE TYPE DEVICE TO 1;
    CONFIGURE BACKUP COPIES OF DATA FILE FOR THE 'SBT_TAPE' UNIT 1;
    CONFIGURE BACKUP ARCHIVELOG FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1;
    CONFIGURE BACKUP ARCHIVELOG FOR DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' 1;
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK RATE 10 M FORMAT ' / arch/oradata/BANKSYS/backup/%Y-%M-%D-ora_df_s%s_s%p';

    Question
    ======
    I need to restore and recover the database from this new backup location. This is as simple as the following:

    1 change the default RMAN location to the new location:

    DISK CONFIGURATION CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE FORMAT "u01/oracle/backup/ora_df%t_s%s_s%p". (note that I've changed it to the new location)

    2 restore and recover (I have a good knowledge/experience in the part).

    Thanks in advance.

    just by changing the default backup location, custom RMAN find backups on its own, you should always run an overlap

    However I would not change the default location temporarily

    RMAN> CATALOG START WITH '/my/backup/location'
    

    will be of RMAN recognize your backups

  • What are the criteria generates warnings "this file is from an untrusted location?

    When users download our installers with IE and choose "Run" instead of save, many see a warning "this file is from an untrusted location.

    I have worked with other developers in other forums to try to nail down exactly when and why the warning message appears for some files and not others and we have not been able to collect any solid information.  Some report no warning while others do not, even when you use the same version of IE and Windows. It is seen on Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 using the versions of IE 8 to 10. But still, it doesn't happen to everyone, even when all the testers use the same version of IE and Windows.

    All the files in all the tests are digitally signed by a certification authority (some with Comodo certificates, some with Verisign, some with DigiCert). Does anyone have solid information on what causes this warning to appear some time for some users? What users with specific security settings?

    Hi Mitchell,

    The question is more suited in the TechNet forums. So I would say you mention the link and send the request in this forum for better support.
