• RMAN backup incremental level 1 without level 0-10 gr 2

  Hello
  
  I'm a bit confused after a few tries.
  
  The issue: It is mandatory to perform incremental level 0 backup before level 1 using Oracle 10 g 2?
  
  On Oracle 11.2 is mandatory, but I don't know about Oracle 10.2.0.5.
  
  11.2 test. If there is no level 0 rman take care on this subject and automatically perform level 0 before level1

  Docs said:
  Incremental backups capture only blocks that change between backups in each data file.
  In a typical incremental backup strategy, an incremental backup of level 0 is used as a starting point. A level 0 backup captures all the blocks in the data file.
  
  So, on Oracle 10.2.0.5 happens not like 11.2:

  Levi,

  Please visit: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/bkup004.htm

  If no level 0 backup is available, then the behavior depends on the setting of compatibility mode. If compatibility is > = 10.0.0, copies all blocks changed since the file was created RMAN and stores the results as a level 1 backup. In other words, the CPN at the time the incremental backup is taken is the creation of SCN file. If compatibility<10.0.0, rman="" generates="" a="" level="" 0="" backup="" of="" the="" file="" contents="" at="" the="" time="" of="" the="" backup,="" to="" be="" consistent="" with="" the="" behavior="" in="" previous="">

• Block Media Recovery and RMAN backup incremental level 1

  Hello
  
  I read somewhere that block Media Recovery will not work if a database is backed up with 1 incremental rman. Is this true and if so is there a work around?
  I can't find it in the documentation of oralce.

  Hello

  Yes you are right, for the recovery block media, you must have full rman backup. Incremental backups are not used by block
  media recovery. Only full backups and archived logs are used.

• RMAN backup on the database with data file with corrupted block

  Hi friends,

  I have a problem with a database of oracle 11g XE on windows server 2003, the database is in production, it is open, is operating normally.

  The database has no backup configured before, so I put the database archiving mode and tried to backup using rman utility, but it show me some errors.

  First of all, it showed me:

  ORA-19501: error in reading file... SYSAUX. DBF

  ORA-27070: async read/write failed

  OSD-04016: error queuing an asynchronous i/o request.

  And when I passed the dbv on the SYSAUX file utility. DBF showed the fatal error.

  So, I switched CHKDSK utility on windows to repair the disc of the error. After that, run utility dbv and he passed and showed me the corrupt on SYSAUX blocks. DBF

  Then, came to rman and ran:

  RMAN > validate the logical database checking;

  State of the file marked corrupt blocks examined empty blocks high YVERT

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

  3 0 1111 115840 78859075 FAILED

  Index 0 0

  After that: watching the content of v$ database_block_corruption;

  Show me a lot of lines like this:

  SQL > select * from v$ database_block_corruption;

  3 4386 2 FRACTURED 0

  3 4384 1 0 ZERO ALL THE

  3 4334 1 0 ZERO ALL THE

  ...

  33 selected lines.

  Finally I try to rerun rman and he shows me the error:

  ORA-19566: exceeded the limit of 0 blocks corrupt file C:\ORACLEXE\APP\ORACLE\ORADATA\XE\SYSAUX. DBF

  How can I do backup with rman? Maybe I can by pass the corrupt block?

  I'll be grateful for any help you can provide.

  
  

  =)
  

  It would be better if you try to find the reason of corruption and try to recover the corrupt blocks. A block corrupted in the backup would really not must use. But if you're ready to take backup, you can ask RMAN to ignore corrupt blocks and move forward.

  Use the pseudo-code for the backup

  Run {set maxcorrupte for the database to 10;

  backup tablespace sysaux ;}

• RMAN backup with the smallest size of backup

  Oralce 11g 2 on Redhat 5. Disk space is our the tighter resource, and we want an incremental backup with Level0 Sunday and level 1 every day of the week and on Saturdays. I'm using the comamnds to do the job

  --Sunday
  backup incremental level 0 tag 'level_0' database plus archivelog;
  --Other days
  backup incremental level 1 database plus archivelog delete all input;

  I don't think that it is the best practice or produce smaller backup files.
  
  What are you comments and opinions. Thank you

  RMAN backup except for the backup copy will only backup blocks used, which is quite efficient. Backup incremental level 1 are set by default and the smallest of the incremental backup.

  However, you can enable compression reduce the size of the backupset (Oracle 10 g and more). You can also enable the block track the changes in the database only once, so that backup incremental level 1 do not need to analyze the data files for the changes - this allows saving a lot of time and IO.

  RMAN > BACKUP AS BACKUPSET INCREMENTAL LEVEL 0 COMPRESSED DATABASE MORE ARCHIVELOG DELETE ALL ENTRIES;
  RMAN > ACE COMPRESSED BACKUPSET INCREMENTAL LEVEL 1 DATA BACKUP MORE ARCHIVELOG;

  I would prefer not to delete the archivelogs after each incremental backup of level 1 in order to make a point in time recovery without the need to restore the archivelogs.

  And don't forget to:
  CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;

  I hope this helps.

• Waiting for redo log file missing when restore main database using RMAN backup that was taken on the database physical standby

  Here's my question after tons of research and test without have the right solutions.

  Target:

  (1) I have a 12.1.0.2 database unique main enterprise 'testdb' as database instance running on the server "node1".

  (2) I created physical standby database "stbydb" on the server "node2".

  (3) DataGuard running on the mode of MaxAvailability (SYNC) with roll forward in real time 12 default c apply.

  (4) primary database has 3 groups of one-man redo. (/oraredo/testdb/redo01.log redo02.log redo03.log)

  (5) I've created 4 standby redo logfiles (/oraredo/testdb/stby01.log stby02.log stby03.log stby04.log)

  (6) I do RMAN backup (database and archivelog) on the site of relief only.

  (7) I want to use this backup for full restore of the database on the primary database.

  He is a DR test to simulate the scenario that has lost every primary & Eve total servers.

  Here is how to save, on the database pending:

  (1) performance 'alter database recover managed standby database Cancel' to ensure that compatible data files

  (2) RMAN > backup database;

  (3) RMAN > backup archivelog all;

  I got elements of backup and copied to primary db Server something like:

  /Home/Oracle/backupset/o1_mf_nnndf_TAG20151002T133329_c0xq099p_.BKP (data files)

  /Home/Oracle/backupset/o1_mf_ncsnf_TAG20151002T133329_c0xq0sgz_.BKP (spfile & controlfile)

  /Home/Oracle/backupset/o1_mf_annnn_TAG20151002T133357_c0xq15xf_.BKP (archivelogs)

  So here's how to restore, on the main site:

  I clean all the files (data files, controlfiles oder all gone).

  (1) restore spfile from pfile

  RMAN > startup nomount

  RMAN > restore spfile from pfile ' / home/oracle/pfile.txt' to ' / home/oracle/backupset/o1_mf_ncsnf_TAG20151002T133329_c0xq0sgz_.bkp';

  (2) modify pfile to convert to db primary content. pFile shows below

  *.audit_file_dest='/opt/Oracle/DB/admin/testdb/adump '

  * .audit_trail = "db".

  * full = '12.1.0.2.0'

  *.control_files='/oradata/testdb/control01.ctl','/orafra/testdb/control02.ctl'

  * .db_block_size = 8192

  * .db_domain = "

  *.db_file_name_convert='/testdb/','/testdb /'

  * .db_name = "testdb".

  * .db_recovery_file_dest ='/ orafra'

  * .db_recovery_file_dest_size = 10737418240

  * .db_unique_name = "testdb".

  *.diagnostic_dest='/opt/Oracle/DB '

  * .fal_server = "stbydb".

  * .log_archive_config = 'dg_config = (testdb, stbydb)'

  * .log_archive_dest_2 = "service = stbydb SYNC valid_for = (ONLINE_LOGFILE, PRIMARY_ROLE) db_unique_name = stbydb'"

  * .log_archive_dest_state_2 = 'ENABLE '.

  *.log_file_name_convert='/testdb/','/testdb /'

  * .memory_target = 1800 m

  * .open_cursors = 300

  * runoff = 300

  * .remote_login_passwordfile = "EXCLUSIVE."

  * .standby_file_management = "AUTO".

  * .undo_tablespace = "UNDOTBS1.

  (3) restart db with updated file pfile

  SQLPLUS > create spfile from pfile='/home/oracle/pfile.txt'

  SQLPLUS > the judgment

  SQLPLUS > startup nomount

  (4) restore controlfile

  RMAN > restore primary controlfile to ' / home/oracle/backupset/o1_mf_ncsnf_TAG20151002T133329_c0xq0sgz_.bkp';

  RMAN > change the editing of the database

  (5) all elements of backup catalog

  RMAN > catalog starts by ' / home/oracle/backupset / '.

  (6) restore and recover the database

  RMAN > restore database;

  RMAN > recover database until the SNA XXXXXX; (this YVERT is the maximum in archivelog backups that extends beyond the scn of the backup of the data file)

  (7) open resetlogs

  RMAN > alter database open resetlogs;

  Everything seems perfect, except one of the file log roll forward pending is not generated

  SQL > select * from v$ standby_log;

  ERROR:

  ORA-00308: cannot open archived log ' / oraredo/testdb/stby01.log'

  ORA-27037: unable to get file status

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

  Additional information: 3

  no selected line

  I intended to use the same backup to restore primary basic & helps record traffic and the downtime between them in the world of real output.

  So I have exactly the same steps (except STANDBY restore CONTROLFILE and not recover after database restore) to restore the database pending.

  And I got the same missing log file.

  The problem is:

  (1) complete alert.log filled with this error, not the concern here

  (2) now repeat it in real time apply won't work since the Party shall LGWR shows always "WAITING_FOR_LOG."

  (3) I can't delete and re-create this log file

  Then I tried several and found:

  The missing standby logfile was still 'ACTIVE' at present RMAN backup was made.

  For example, on db standby, under Group #4 (stby01.log) would be lost after the restoration.

  SQL > select GROUP #, SEQUENCE #, USE (s), the STATUS from v$ standby_log;

  GROUP # SEQUENCE # USED STATUS

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

  4 19 ACTIVE 133632

  5 0 0 UNASSIGNED

  6 0 0 not ASSIGNED

  7 0 0 UNASSIGNED

  So until I take the backup, I tried on the primary database:

  SQL > alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2 = delay;

  This was the Group of standby_log side Eve #4 was released:

  SQL > select GROUP #, SEQUENCE #, USE (s), the STATUS from v$ standby_log;

  GROUP # SEQUENCE # USED STATUS

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

  4 0 0 UNASSIGNED

  5 0 0 UNASSIGNED

  6 0 0 not ASSIGNED

  7 0 0 UNASSIGNED

  Then, the backup has been restored correctly without missing standby logfile.

  However, to change this primary database means break DataGuard protection when you perform the backup. It's not accept on the production environment.

  Finally, my real questions come:

  (1) what I do may not do on parameter change?

  (2) I know I can re-create the control file to redo before delete and then recreate after. Is there any simple/fast to avoid the standby logfile lost or recreate the lost one?

  I understand that there are a number of ways to circumvent this. Something to keep a copy of the log file waiting restoration progress and copy up one missing, etc, etc...

  And yes I always have done no real-time applies "to the aid of archived logfile" but is also not accept mode of protection of production.

  I just want proof that the design (which is displayed in a few oracle doc Doc ID 602299.1 is one of those) that backs up data backup works effectively and can be used to restore the two site. And it may be without spending more time to resume backups or put the load on the primary database to create the database before.

  Your idea is very much appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  1--> when I take via RMAN backup, RMAN does not redo log (ORL or SRL) file, so we cannot expect ORLs or SRL would be restored.

  2nd--> when we opened the ORL database should be deleted and created

  3rd--> Expecting, SRL should not be an issue.we should be able to do away with the fall.

  If you still think it's something is not acceptable, you must have SR with support to analyze why he does not abandon SRL when controlfile_type is "underway".

  Thank you

• RMAN issues - no backup or copy of the data file found

  Oracle 11 g 2

  Linux RHEL 6.5

  I inherited a database backup and restore question since the DBA is OoO.

  Here is the script used for the backup:

  Configure default device the disk type;
  Configure controlfile autobackup on;
  Configure controlfile autobackup peripheral type disc format in ' / u01/app/oracle/bkp/controlfile/%F.ctl';
  Configure retention policy to recovery of 30-day window;
  View all;
  Run {}
  stop immediately;
  bootable media;
  allocate channel dup1 device type disk;
  allocate channel dup2 device type disk;
  SQL "create pfile =" /u01/app/oracle/bkp/pfile/initpfile.ora "of spfile;
  backup format ' / u01/app/oracle/bkp/cold_db/cold_bkp_%U' database;
  output channel dup1;
  output channel dup2;
  ALTER database open;
  }

  When I try the following restore script:

  run
  {
  Start pfile='/u01/app/oracle/bkp/pfile/initpfile.ora' nomount;
  Restore controlfile to ' / u01/app/oracle/bkp/controlfile/c-123131414-20140509-00.ctl';
  change the editing of the database;
  restore the database;
  ALTER database open resetlogs;
  }

  I get error RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of the data file found

  I'm trying to restore a database backup from 5 days ago and I use this backup control file.
  

  I'll close this discussion and continue to involve the Oracle.  Thank you all for your help.

• How to find the total size of the RMAN backup files?

  Hello

  env: Oracle 10 g 2, RHEL 64 bit

  My customer has a production database where rman backups are taken: level 0 backup every Sunday and level 1, Monday to Saturday.

  I have very limited access to this database of production because it is managed by a third party, and they don't give me my required info (don't know why). I don't have access to the rman repository. To connect to the database that I have to connect to a staging server, then connect to the database server. I have no access to Enterprise Manager. So in short, my access is limited. I want to collect information on the total size of the files of rman backup - both for level 1 to level 0 backups separately. I understand that this info can be retrieved from the rman repository. Is there a dictionary views/tables of data where I can get this info?

  Best regards

• Creating a new controlfile with RMAN backup data files

  Hello
  
  I use oracle 10g (10.2.0.1) in RHEL5 server. I am trying to restore a RMAN backup from one server to another server again with the new name of the comic. I took on the RMAN backup spfile and created her pfile and edited the file pfile with new dbname and directory structure and launched the db in nomount with new pfile. Today I restored the backup controfile RMAN has tried to put the database in State of Mount. But it failed due to the error below
  
  RMAN-03002: failure of alter db command at 21:44:56 05/11/2012
  ORA-01103: name "ORADB" in the control of the database file is not 'DEVDB '.
  
  So I stop the database and started the db in nomount with new pfile and tried to create the controlfile with new db name, but he didn't like it is looking for the data files.
  
  ORA-01503: CREATE CONTROLFILE failed

  restaurer restore as ORADB, then rename the database with DBNEWID

• Why are my RMAN backup files still around?

  Environment:
  
  Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris 64 bit
  
  Good morning (at least it's morning here at the moment),
  
  I have a test database that I have currently configured to do an incremental backup of level 0, every morning at about 03:00.
  
  I also do one "archivelog backup all" every 4 hours during the day.
  
  My archivelog deletion policy is "saved 2 times".
  
  I put RMAN in place with a 8 day recovery window (ALL - see below).
  
  I have multiple RMAN files dated 11 days ago.
  
  Question: Why these files are still around?
  

  RMAN> show all;
  
  using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
  RMAN configuration parameters for database with db_unique_name APSMDMP2 are:

  I have several entries in V$ ARCHIVED_LOG with a BACKUP_COUNT = 1 but they are all dated to 21 days ago and have DELETED status as shown here:

  I use the "DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE' after each database and backup archivelog. Here is my command file 0 extra strength:
  

  backup incremental level 0 cumulative database tag 'full_db';
  backup archivelog all not backed up 2 times tag 'full_arch';
  DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE;

  I know I can manually remove the files and everything with a resync OVERLAP but I was trying to understand why it happened in the first place.
  
  Any suggestions are welcome.
  
  Please let me know if you need more information.
  
  Thank you very much!!

  Hmm

  Perhaps, I see your logic.

  I post a thread as an editing tool that explains better than any I've seen.

  Give him a look and see if the answer isn't here.

• trap State of RMAN backup log file.

  Database: 10.2.0.2 enterprize edition
  Operating system: SUN solaris 5.10
  
  We will perform backups RMAN, level 0 weekend and incremental backups of level 2 and level 1 week. We will continually monitor the log through a HPOV tool file. This tool will send errors in the log file to the HPSMH ticket management tool.
  
  Now my concern is that we get several alerts every time that a channel failure and the canal failed is running with the other channel. Now, we want to check the overall backup status, if it is successful or not by checking the newspaper at a time.
  
  Please give me any suggestion to overcome this obstacle. We execute the RMAN backup with shell scripts and output will be appended to the log file.
  
  TIA

  The RMAN return code is returned by the RMAN executable: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmtroub.htm#i1006541.

• RMAN backup with ora-19504 failed

  Hi, I have to log on to the database server and map a network drive. I create a folder named rmanback and run rman to back up the database. However, it fails with the error
  ORA-19504: cannot create the file 'z:/rmanback/test_27628.bak '.
  ORA-27040: skgfrcre: error, unable to create the file
  My version of database server system is windows2003 server. And the backup command is
  format='z:\rmanback\%D_%s.bak backup database"
  The version of oracle's 10g, sp4.
  What should I do?

  By default Oracle (database, listener) services to run under the LocalSystem account internal. This account is not allowed to write on disks shared for security reasons. And it is this account that makes the RMAN backup, not the OS user you are connected. Redefine the Oracle services, that they run under an administrator account (if you are in a domain, use a domain administrator account), see on metalink:
