RMAN recovery window and redundancy

Hello

I am using Oracle 11 g (11.2.0.1) in windows 2003 server. RMAN is it possible to put both the below configuration in force or any configuration cannot be used?

RMAN > CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY to RECOVERY OF 7-DAY WINDOW;

RMAN > CONFIGURE REDUNDANCY 2 RETENTION POLICY;

Kind regards

007

I want the political configuration RMAN to apply

Lol you can only use the KeepOption to change a specific backup strategy:

    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-20207: until the RECOVERY WINDOW, which was before the RESETLOGS

    Dear friends,

    I'm picking up some time and I have used this SQL in my RMAN

    reset the database incarnation 1;

    run
    {
    until ' to_date (3 Aug 10 17:50 ',' MON-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') ";
    restore the database;
    recover the database;
    }

    and I get this error: RMAN-20207: until the RECOVERY WINDOW, which was before the RESETLOGS

    I thought changing the incarnation will solve the problem. I have only 2 incarnations, which is used after that the resetlogs which is number 2. So I now use 1 incarnation.

    How should I go about this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Ok...

    Now, what you have to do: If you want to point at the time of recovery, you must have a valid backup plus archivelogs in order to recover up to the desired time.

    From now on, full backup is available for the time that you asked, however archivelogs not :(

    You must make available, controlfile catalogue and begin to restore, recover up to the hour. Then open with resetlogs option.

    How many backup files (before when, date on which) RMAN will remove physically from the disk?

    Thank you.

    'CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY to REDUNDANCY 8;' means, RMAN will keep 8 independent backups of any window of time. Use 'CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY to RECOVERY WINDOW of N days;', if you want to have a time-based retention policy.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    At startup, it will say press F2 or delete key to go into Bios/Setup, or maybe F12 to go to the Start Menu.

    And have you tried also to tap F8 at startup and choose Safe Mode from the list of Boot Options?

    Use up arrow key to do this, press on enter.

    Hello

    This process will allow you to do a Vista repair disc. This isn't an installation disc, but will allow you to use the Vista Recovery Console that is available on commercial versions of Vista.

    Download the file from the link below.

    Vista 64-bit

    It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip, when installed, right-click on the zipped folder, select extract files and then click Ok.  You should now see another folder containing the ISO file.

    You will need software to burn the ISO to a CD.  If you don't have that guy on the software installed, download and install ImgBurn and use it to burn the ISO to a CD.

    Once you have created the Vista repair disk, follow the guide on the link below to see if it undertakes to repair your installation - you may need to run this several times.

  • startup and recovery Windows 7

    Whenever I turn on my computer, I get two options.
    1:-your windows 7 could not start properly. Use windows startup and recovery to resolve this problem
    2:-start windows normally

    If I leave the computer so that it starts on its own then it goes to the first option and he goes through the steps until I come to computer and previous restore point.
    If I leavel and follow all options, it will take a while but then it says that it can't be fixed and to send information to microsoft, what I'm doing. Then, the computer crashes with a pretty light blue screen which, after ten minutes, I turn the computer all over again.
    If I choose option 2, then the computer starts normally.
    Option 1 allows you to take about 10 minutes to complete, but the last time I did that it took more than 1 hour to complete.
    How can I prevent this from happening. I did a complete reinstall of windows 7, but I still get this problem after a while?

    never had a disc of windows vista with the new laptop and no option to make a recovery disk, and I need to format my laptop to factory / clean, help!

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

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

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

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

    Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

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

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    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

    Hello

    I bought HP Pavilion G6 2005 ax. I want to install windows 8 on it.

    The device comes with windows 7 Home Basic preinstalled.

    He has only two partitions. One for e OS and one for recovery.

    And it's annoying to use as such.

    I tried to take recovery disks, but failed. And sentenced to HP recovery disks and they passed on to the

    recovery disks, which is part of the way.

    Installation of windows 8 is safe? can I return to Lacrosse, OS, recovery thorugh disks?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello:

    Yes, Windows 8 will work on your laptop, and Yes, the recovery disks will restore your PC to its factory condition.

  • Recovery window retention policy removes the archive logs before backup?

    Hi all

    Oracle 11G on Windows 2008 R2

    This afternoon, I've changed my retention policy RMAN "RETENTION POLICY 3 REDUNDANCY"on RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS RETENTION POLICY

    However, I checked tonight and after that my daily backup, all the archive before backup logs had been removed! So that means I don't think I can restore to any point in time, before my daily backup. All newspapers .arc were there after the backup. Then I tried another test and began the daily backup again. During the backup process, archive logs were deleted again! Now, I don't have any archives of newspapers...

    Is this good behavior OF RETENTION POLICY RECOVERY WINDOW? I thought that she would keep all the files needed for to restore me to any point in time for the previous 3 days. When I used a REDUNDANCY, with my daily backups, he kept 3 days of backups + archiving logs so that I could restore point-in-time at any point. How can I use WINDOW RECOVERY so that I can actually restore to any point in time for the 3 days?

    I wanted to change WINDOW of recovery, since I read that using the REDUNDANCY, it keeps only X copy a backup (so if I ran the backup 3 times a day, I would have only these 3).

    Thanks in advance.

    After a database RESTORE, Oracle tries to RECOVER a DATABASE.  He tries to 'find' the archivelogs for this phase in the location expected archivelog.  If they are NOT present in the location expected archivelog, it attempts to restore backups before applying them.

    Since your BACKUP... DELETE ENTRY deletes the archivelogs after that that they are saved, Oracle will have to use backups to recover the archivelogs.
