• 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="">

• Backup RMAN, DataGuard

  Hi all, 11.2.0.1 AIX 6.1, I'm new in this business and I'm reviewing the configuration ensures DATAGUARD. He has not much taken for me, but a user guide 2 pages of documentation. So I have to do my own check. I usually like oracle and check connection run the cron if there are a lot of calendar RMAN. But I do not see. So, I guess dataguard uses DBMS_SCHEDULER to run rman backup? Am I wrong? Thank you, zxy

  Maybe you should think about WHY make us backups.

  Let's say on the DR site storage is corrupted.  You must rebuild the site of DR.

  What do you prefer?

  1 food and catching up with the primary

  2 reproduce primary

  Your decision would be headed by factors such as

  a. size of the DB

  b. restore time

  c. time to replicate

  d. catch-up time

  Here's the script. Right now I am running it manually but would relly to run with nohup so I can go to lunch.

  Ok

  Therefore, this

  RMAN target auxiliary SYS@sor01_primary

  Would be more like this

  RMAN target sys/password@PRIMARY auxiliary.

  You should be able to pre-test to the command prompt.

  Then hard-code in a shell script.

• RMAN size incremental backups have increased.

  In a database of CARS of two nodes, the size of the file incremental RMAN is usually around 400-500 MB and RMAN complete file size takes up approximately 10 GB.
  Suddenly, the RMAN incremental file size has increased to about 16-17 GB and there are no extension on the block of data file size data of size/volume/DB etc.
  
  What could be the reason for the sudden increase in the size of the RMAN incremental file?
  
  Thank you

• 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.
  
  Concerning

  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 Duplicate + incremental backups + upgrade to 12 c

  Hello

  IM thinking the best way migrationg and upgrading database 11.2.0.4 to 12 c with reasonable downtime.

  reasonable downtime: 30 Minutes

  Source: Solaris (Intel)

  11.2.0.4

  DB Dimensions: 800G

  Target: Linux

  12 c

  new name of the comic.

  IM thinking to use RMAN Duplicate with option NoOpen(1) (RMAN catalog is in use). Double will be for sure several of 30 minutes then think if I can combine two copies for the recovery of the archivelogs generated during replication to minimize downtime. But is it possible when I change DB_NAME?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I guess, you may need to check once this document. 412484.1

  I'm really not sure about your source and target system

  If your source is the 'Platform_id' 20, you can enjoy all your needs in 30 minutes or less. If this isn't the case, it is difficult.

  If your platform_id is 20, you can then create physical standby for your 11.2.0.4 and get the same thing, once the database is recovered, you can convert this logic of sleep (note: your database must be validated for the logical expectation), if you convert your logical database in standby mode, then you can change the name of your database to the new name also you can upgarde to 12 c.

  After upgrade, you can still recover all changes to your primary. Once the logic ensures sync with primary then you can pass.

  If your platform_id not 20, then

  You can opt for Golden Gate...

  Thank you

• Oracle Dataguard - newspapers apply question

  Hello
  Due to a problem our archives logs does not production, the day before. We had our intelligence in London. I don't see any error messages. do not know what is going on, I had open case with oracle support.
  We must stop all our production and DR last Sunday. Once it is up he stopped log shipping. our production server is a node 3 CARS.
  
  I just need how to apply logs archiving of standby production, which is based in London.
  
  appricate your quick response.
  
  Thank you

  To restore a database on hold:
  1 manually copy all log files miissing Archives from the primary to the standby server

  2.) cancel managed recovery on the standby database:

  change databae recover managed standby database cancel;
  3.) recover automatically:

  automatic recovery of the standy basis;
  4.) switch managed standby

  recover managed standby database disconnect;

  OR...

  Manually set a gap:
  =============================

  In some rare cases, it may be necessary manually fix the gaps. The following section describes how to query the appropriate views to determine whether there is a gap.

  On your physical standby database:
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Query view ARCHIVE_GAP of V$:

  SQL > SELECT * FROM V$ ARCHIVE_GAP;

  THREAD # LOW_SEQUENCE # HIGH_SEQUENCE #.
  ----------- ------------- --------------
  1 333 336

  The query results show that your physical database ensure is currently absent sequence logs 333 in sequence 336 for thread 1. After identifying the gap, issue the following SQL statement on the database primary to locate the archived redo logs on your primary database:

  SQL > SELECT NAME FROM V$ ARCHIVED_LOG WHERE THREAD #= 1 AND DEST_ID = 1 AND
  2 > SEQUENCE # BETWEEN 333 AND 336;

  NAME
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  /U01/oradata/arch/arch_1_333.arc
  /U01/oradata/arch/arch_1_334.arc
  /U01/oradata/arch/arch_1_335.arc

  Copy the logs returned by the query for your physical database Eve and register by using the ALTER DATABASE REGISTER LOGFILE command.

  SQL > ALTER DATABASE REGISTER LOGFILE
  ' / u01/oradata/stby/arch/arch_1_333.arc';
  SQL > ALTER DATABASE REGISTER LOGFILE
  ' / u01/oradata/stby/arch/arch_1_334.arc';
  SQL > ALTER DATABASE REGISTER LOGFILE
  ' / u01/oradata/stby/arch/arch_1_335.arc';

  Once the files newspapers were registered in the standby controlfile, you can restart the MRP process and the standby database 'catch up' the gaps in newspapers or you can manually restore the standby database.

• incremental inference questions

  I'm very confused about how to make the incremental inference to work. Here is what I tried in the java code:
  
  Piece attached attachment = Attachment.createInstance (new String [] {}, "OWLPRIME",
  InferenceMaintenanceMode.UPDATE_WHEN_COMMIT,
  QueryOptions.ALLOW_QUERY_INCOMPLETE);
  
  graph = new GraphOracleSem (oracle, "mc_model", attachment).
  graph.setInferenceOption ("INC. = t.");
  
  The problem is when I try to do something like this:
  
  ModelOracleSem oracle_sem_model = new ModelOracleSem (graph);
  Model OntModel = ModelFactory.createOntologyModel (OntModelSpec.OWL_MEM, oracle_sem_model);
  Individual D = model.createInstance (NS + "New_Individual");
  parentIndividual.addProperty (transitiveProp, d);
  Model.Commit ();
  Graph.Commit ();
  
  The graph.commit () command takes about 5 seconds, the same amount of time if the restless are created without incremental inference. Y at - it something I am doing wrong? Can I use the APIs OntModel with incremental inference or what I need to manually add the statements to the model? BTW, I checked the SEM_APIS change the tracking property and apparently activated and has a time stamp
  
  Published by: alexi on November 13, 2009 07:18

  Hello

  It seems that incremental inference is used. Note that there is some overhead involved with the progressive realization and no incremental inference in general, as well, even with models, it might take a few seconds to complete. Some of the charges is caused by the large number of rules in OWLPRIME modules, so if you don't need all of them you can selectively disable components by using the GraphOracleSem.performInference procedure (components of the chain).

  In addition, it depends on your dataset. For example, if you add a single triple, but that triple says strongly some formerly transitive property, while the Bill could trigger of many additional deductions and update the inferred graph will take over time.

  Regarding OntModel APIs and incremental inference, depends on the loading method you use. Incremental inference works better with incremental loading. Please see Section 2.2.9 of the Semantic Technologies for details Developer's Guide.

  See you soon,.

• RMAN tips on RAC/Dataguard

  Our environment is like this:
  OS: Linux Redhat
  DB: 11.2.302
  2 primary cars, 2 physical standby of the cars (same size tst db - not occupied a +), 1 autonomous physical standby
  
  I think using the rman catalog (which never in place before prod environment) and rman backup incremental.
  
  Questions I have now:
  (1) where is the best server to perform the backup? I think that independent is preferable to unload resources of prod.
  (2) where should I put catalog rman? What are the basics that I must follow?
  (3) I think I want to do on a Sunday rman full backup, then the rest of the incremental backup of days rman, what kind of rman configuration should I use?
  (4) what are the best practices on this topics?
  
  Thanks in advance.

• Configuring RMAN for dataguard.

  Hi all
  
  Here we have an environment dataguard with db1 (db_unique_name) as primary and db2 (db_unique_name) Physics of the standby database. For primary and secondary the ORACLE_SID is "oracledb." We have configured dataguard in environments of 10 g and we don't use a grid control. And now we want to configure rman for incremental backups. We use a third database of catalog which we recorded primary DB successfully. When the primary configuration of rman is show conflicts. Even changes to the main configuration of RMAN are applied on the standby too who I think shouldn't happen in this scenario. How to solve this problem? Is what is happening because of the ORACLE_SID even for primary and secondary school? I enclose the link from the doc, we also followed the errors and configuring in rman. Can anyone help?

  Hello

  You must set log_archive_dest_2 (for the standby database) mandatory
  Like this

  alter system set log_archive_dest_2= 'service=standby lgwr async valid_for=(online_logfiles,primary_role) *mandatory*';
  

  try again the configuration of the deletion of journal policy archive on RMAN.

• RMAN incremental backup issue

  Hi all
  
  I'm read on Oracle11g release2 doc RMAN.
  
  In Chapter 9:
  
  "For example, you can implement a three-tier backup plan as well as a level 0 backup is performed every month, a cumulative level 1 is taken from the week, and a premium of level 1 is taken daily. In this strategy, you will never have to apply more than one day to complete recovery redo. »
  
  First I got an error when I try to make a level 0 backup

  RMAN> BACKUP INCREMENTAL LEVEL 0 database;
   
  Starting backup at 27-APR-11
  using channel ORA_DISK_1
  using channel ORA_DISK_2
  using channel ORA_DISK_3
  using channel ORA_DISK_4

  and if the success of step, how I would go about to implement this?
  I can do this via dbms_scheduler? or I need to do this via cron?
  
  -Thank you very much for the entry

  Your DB must be in use archivelogmode use hot backups. Is your db in archivelog mode?

  My problem is... I m unable to set the DBID of my prod db, RMAN (catalog) connects to itself as the target of DB,.
  
  Any guys help?

  Looks like you have connected only to the catalog database.

  do not forget to target = database to restore

  so you should

  (1) set ORACLE_SID = db restore
  (2) rman
  target connection.
  Connect catalog...
