• 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 do, you can recreate the controlfile without waiting for redo log entry...

• RMAN backup with a missing archivelog.

  Hello
  
  I backed up my database yesterday after that you guys helped me to solve some problems I've had on this subject. I have used RMAN with the following command in an execution block:
  
  * run {*}
  allocate channel t1 type disk;
  backup current controlfile;
  backup database;
  delete any backup archivelog entry;
  output channel c1;
  *}*
  
  At the end of the operation, RMAN indicates that archivelog is missing, and he couldn't find it. Therefore, recover the operation may be compromised. Now am confused because I don't know if the command executed successfully or not and how to fix the missing archivelog.

  Adomi,

  It is sad to see that you are still RMAN in 8i mode where you are on 10g.

  The script is bs, sorry

  Run {}
  allocate channel t1 type disk; -not required
  backup current controlfile; -not necessary, as this is already done backup of database
  backup database;
  delete any backup archivelog entry;
  output channel c1; -not required.
  }

  If you have autobackup controlfile, you might just

  backup database archivelog

  and be done with it.

  Like you didn't made a RMAN backup from the start, should have read your archivelog backup statement

  ARCHIVELOG backup all Skip inaccessible delete entry.

  Once successful Oracle shouldn't the archivelog has more need, and you should make a second backup without the skip inaccessible clause.

• How to restore RMAN backups

  Hello

  I tried to include works of RMAN Oracle 12 c

  If I use the following command, I should have the backuppiece and the archivelog saved in a folder:

  RMAN > BACKUP database DATA PLUS ARCHIVELOG;

  If I ran this command in 4 different days, which I ended up having 4 folders with different inside files

  I guess that, in these files, I have the data files and the archivelogs

  Now I move these folders to tape, re-cutting the backups and delete expired

  Say that in a month, I need one of these backups if I put a band records and I added start with 'c:\path_of _restored_folder _L', so I added all files in the folder that I restored from tape

  Now, if I try to restore the basis of all is well but when I run the recover, it is missing some archiving logs it says

  If I put all the files for 4 days then he finds the archivelog she needs and pick up without problem

  on this basis I understand that in the folder containing a backuppiece of a specific day there is the newspaper of archive that I needed to recover from the DB, is that true? How can I know if the backups folder I need to replace in order to have all the required log archiving?

  At the moment my DB retrieves only if I handed out the Ribbon last backup folder, if I handed out the previous, it restores, but is not recover

  Also I have this configuration of the oracle recovery 3 days window maintains backups in order to be able to restore and recover the last 3 days and he simply deletes all obsolete if the FRA is full

  I tried earlier to set up the window of 3 days as a test recovery

  I ran a few backups and after that I ran the 5th FRA leak out of space and the backup fails

  I expect rman to remove the old backup and make way for a new that I have 5 backuppiece and the FRA is full, why he not do?

  Thank you

  The default behavior of RECOVER is to make a full recovery - right until the transactions today.  So it must all archivelogs.

  If you want to restore and recover to a point in time, use the SET clause to THAT specify a sequence of the newspaper or time or SNA.  Oracle will then not get beyond that point in time - that is to say he will not seek further archiving logs.

  (Ideally, when you restore an old backup, I also begins to restore the old controlfile, then using this controlfile).

  If you use the FRA in this way

  a. set db_recovery_file_dest_size and db_recovery_file_dest

  b. * not * used a FORMAT clause in the BACKUP command

  Oracle will recognize all backups in the FRA (you can check by querying V$ FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA_USAGE before and after the backup).

  In this case, Oracle can and will automatically purge outdated backups - that is to say any backup older than the retention period, provided that there is at least a L0 or backup complete closest to the retention period.  You should see messages to this effect in the alert of the instance database log file.

• 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)

  You are confusing "expired" with "obsolete".

  When a backupset is created, an account of which is placed in the control file.

  If you backup ' overlap ', rman checks these records against reaility.  If no backup turns out have disappeared, his file is marked as "expired".  That follow-up with a 'delete expired backup', and missing backups (expired) records will be deleted from the repository.

  What you want is "delete obsolete.  Which will remove any backup that is no longer necessary to enforce the retention period.

  BTW, "redundancy" and "x days" are mutually exclusive.

• RMAN backup space free after compression subpartition

  Hello!
  
  I have a strange situation. I have a table with partitions of range and 8 subpartitions. I compressed subpartitions according to this trick:

  Hello

  You need to check yourself. Restore the RMAN backup and verify that your backup is valid (I think you already have links to RMAN documentation is another thread).

• Import of schemas and tables of RMAN backup

  Hi all

  I have here are 3 requirements:

  (1) is it possible that I can import a single table using RMAN backup, because I have no more than one day of EXPDP dump file and the requirement is to store the data of three days.

  (2) is it possible that I can import a single SCHEMA using RMAN backup, because I have no more than one day of EXPDP dump file and the requirement is to store the data of three days.

  (3) can I import a package from the RMAN backup?

  I have incremental backup of level 1 and level 0.

  My database is 11.2.0.3

  Thank you and best regards,

  Mukesh

  Hi Mukesh,

  All of your needs can be met with output up to 11g using RMAN database, but beyond of 12 c, you can restore a single table RMAN backup (RMAN BACK TABLE new feature to the 12 c (Doc ID 1521524.1) Oracle database). For your condition impdp/expdp is the best Utilities option until oracle provided up to version 11 g.

  I hope this helps.

  Kind regards

• The user managed based backup Rman backup cold cold vs

  Hi all

  I just want to know the advantages and disadvantages for backup managed user cold and cold backup Rman.

  What is the best cold backup?

  Some some can help me?

  Thank you

  Cedric Joshi

  Hello

  Both are good only... If you took the clod backup (managed by the user), you can also do with RMAN catalog.

  I feel clod RMAN backup is good.

  Reason:

  ======

  ++ with RMAN you can avoid used used block, you can only backup used blocks

  ++ RMAN has its own compression algorithm

  ++ We also have the ability to assign multiple channels to parallelize the backup

• RMAN backup location must change and remove obsolete

  Dear Experts,

  I'm working on the following environment,

  Operating system: Windows server 2012 R2

  Oracle version: 11.2.0.1.0 release

  Type of RMAN backup: Cumulative (preferred by the direction and I can't change it in differential backup)

  My current situation,

  I set up RMAN and H: drive for purposes of backup and G: for Archivelog.

  Recently, my city was covered by the flood waters and the server works not for a week so that we delete obsolete level 0 does not work.

  Currently there is not enough space to run a level 1 and level 0, while I should change the backup location.

  My Question is,

  (1) I need to change this location of drive H: to G: drive backup backup correctly without error not enough space.

  (2) after having taken a level 1 and level 0, depending on my 1 redundancy, RMAN mechanism should delete obsolete backup disk without failure G: and H:.

  Kindly help me how to get to my need. This will help me, thanks in advance

  You can

  1. replace the DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST G:

  2 run backups

  3. wait for the DELETE OBSOLETE delete obsolete backups of H:

  and then

  4. change the DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST return h as it was more early

  In this way, you don't have to use the FORMAT or CHANNEL of CONFIGURE commands (I was referring to CONFIGURE CHANNEL, not ALLOCATE CHANNEL) to change the destination of the backup

  and are used in many media of rman backup band (about 50EA media, perhaps 46EA are full and 4EA are appendble)

  So, I issue the command 'lsvol - a - c' and could not display expired on all media content.

  Why OSB no has not select and replace the tape media despite the rman rman default retention policy (3days) all show the setting.

  Why OSB does not have the expired status of rman content on tape media?

  -> I need the rman (delete expired, delete obsolete etc...) command to share the summary status of OSB and rman rman?

  Q2 > selection procedure for the tape media all backup rman

  Suppose the total number of tape media is 5EA. (1,2,3,4,5) with an available tape LTO5 drive.

  Status: 1 (full-rman content already expired), 2 (content integral-rman not expired), 3 (editable, remaining space), 4 (new media), 5 (currnet wring media)

  If OSB burn now 5 and reach at the end of the Strip and possibly another media, media to be selected by the OSB?

  Advanced thanks.

  If I place the order obsolete in the rman script as 'delete type 'SBT_TAPE' noprompt obsolete device;' the results will be the same as your

  the syntax because rman default setting (CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY to RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS ;) has already been fixed on the command "Show all", right? @)

  Yes.

  I use the catalog of recovery on a different database and backup script has catalog db connection string.

  And if I only use controlfile instead of recovery catalog to save the backup information and put in place "control_file_record_keep_time" a default of 7 days to 365 days, "remove obsolete" command to remove several weeks backupset works well, is it not?

  Possible problem are existing backups for several weeks if you left default control_file_record_keep_time. Change now will not help unless you catalog later manually all the old pieces not catalogued on tape backup.

  After you clean up the situation and particularly to remove obsolete in your script, rman, you will never make problems with control_file_record_keep_time from this moment. By default will do just fine because it is larger than your window of recovery.

• EBS 11i RMAN backup

  Hi all

  EBS 11i

  OEL 5

  I have rman backup of our database of EBS.

  I also have a single backup at oracle.

  Assuming that no patches have been applied, is the one-time backup of oracle home + backup rman, good enough to restore the database to a server disaster recovery?

  Can I still place adpreclone every day, for the rman backup to synchronize?

  Adpreclone is used to capture changes to the patches applied, or adding database files? or both?

  Please throw lights...

  Thank you very much

  JC

  It is not possible to have several databases with the ORACLE_SID even on the same host.

  The solution is that you have to put on separate hosts.

• Backup with rman backup sets

  Hi experts. I know about backup of backup without rman example sets but I want to know is there a way to backup with rman backup sets.

  Perhaps it works for your condition.
