• urgent server won't boot up, how rman restore/recovery?

  Hello

  Reboot server SA will not start server.

  s/n cannot access server.

  the worst case:

  If SA want to rebuild a new server, reinstall the oracle database, is there docs to show me how to restore/recovery of database using rman of rman backup files in the old server records.

  (we do not catalog rman, just the control file)

  Thank you very much!

  If SA want to rebuild a new server, reinstall the oracle database, is there docs to show me how to restore/recovery of database using rman of rman backup files in the old server records.

  Yes - there are a LOT of docs on the web. Just use your favorite search engine and the search for them. They are EASY to find.

  But the SMARTEST thing would be to find the problem with the original database and fix it.

• Question of ditch RMAN restore/recovery

  Hi all, so here's my situation.
  
  I have two database servers, both running 10.2.0.1 SE on RHEL 4. One is the primary database, and the second is a standby mode. Since it's SE and given there guard is not available, the primary database has archive_lag_target value 30 minutes. The standby database is in a mounted State, and a cron job runs every 30 minutes which catalogues the primary archivelogs and does a recovery of the database to apply the archivelogs. This means that the database pending is to to more than 30 minutes behind the primary.
  
  The other night, the primary database server hung and restarted on its own to almost 450 h, and the last filled archivelog reached about 441 h, (sequence #52113). When the principal server has increased once again, we have tried to launch database errors, but recovered, ora-600/7445 database corruption, so we decided to wait. The last archivelog seq # 52113, has been applied on the eve and passed on the eve of the operations.
  
  The day before is now last up to 441 hours. As the primary database server is stopped at 450 pm, is there a way to always retrieve the changes between 441 pm and 450 MP? If I do a restore/recovery using the backup, the database that results would not be recovered at the same time/scn as data watches, namely the #52113 seq?
  
  Any help would be appreciated.

  Yes you can.

  But be careful you've got errors ora-600/7445, so contacts with the support of oracle first.

• RMAN restore and recovery

  Hello

  If I have two full backups in my FRA (say 7 to 14 days)

  Q1. I assume that if I run it.

  RMAN > restore database;

  It will go to the last backup (7 days ago)?

  Q2. How to restore the backup of ago 14 days instead?

  Q3. If I restore the database of 14 days but then question

  RMAN > recover database until < 3 days >

  RMAN would simply apply the recovery logs archived for 14 days to the point of recovery or it would be smart enough to realize, there a backup to restore all first 7 days ago, then apply 7 days recovery logs, to the point of recovery?

  Q4. Can you do an online backup as a copy of the Image instead of a backup set or you can offline backups when you use a copy of the Image?

  All wisdom, greatly appreciated

  Jim

  (1) switching is not required for recovery. You have just enough do to standardize the data files. It doesn't matter if the switch is produced or not.

  (2) "extra small set of archivelogs" can be enormous if the backup is long-term with many DML during backup.

  You need a sufficiently archivelogs, regardless of the copy backupset or image, to make the data files in compliance.

  (3) hot RMAN copy backup data files, while they are updated, but in order to avoid a block inconsistent read to avoid corruption. The data files are not frozen, as with the hot user managed backup.

• RMAN restore error - recovery of media asking unknown journal: thread 1 seq 7

  IM using RMAN to copy a database to another server. The new server is IDENTICAL to the former. By identical I mean she has the same break the name, ip address, operating system, directory structure and the Oracle version.
  
  The new server has already created instance, (same name as the old server example, paths etc.)
  
  The backup files have been restored manually on the new server, the same places that they were on the old. (RMAN makes a backup controlfile automatic and also the archivelogs on the old server).
  
  Ive restored the control file to the new server from the elements of RMAN backup.
  
  Ive cataloged items of RMAN backup on the new server.

  So far its all perfectly fine.
  
  Now I want to restore the data files and recover. So I ran:
  
  RMAN run {restore database; recover database; alter database open resetlogs ;}}
  
  This gave me the result below is going very well, but I get a final error, I think that the error is because its search for an archive log that is not in the backup set, but it should be. However, I think 560851 SNA is for a journal that had not yet been created on the old server when the backup was run?
  
  I address, how to fix the error? Its interesting to note the journal, "archive log filename=C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\SAT\ARCHIVELOG".
  \2011_05_11\O1_MF_1_6_6WOK1X4W_. ARCH-recid = 10 = 750881741 "stamp is not on the old server or which explains why this isn't in the backup set.
  
  I can do an alter database open reset connects but Id prefer to know why its failure.
  
  
  Any help would be appreciated.

  He asked all of the available archives, whenever you give the database recovery, he keeps searching for the next archives, actually these archives are not yet generated, then you can ignore.

  Now just connect to SQL and give

  SQL > alter database open resetlogs;

  It should work.

• RMAN restore to a new server

  I use RMAN full backup on server A (suppose it's the PROD server) every night. It's the backup script

  }

  Scenario of

  A server is completely destroyed in a fire of data center; but bkupsvr is in another building. Therefore, backups are safe.

  Given this scenario, how can I restore?

  Possible solutions?

  Group server running server B. I have installed Oracle and created a blank database. The DBID is different. Should I treat this as a restoration or should I treat it as a replica from a backup?

  I guess I need advice on the restoration plan.

  Thank you!

  He now works within the server itself and other servers.

  The problem with the desktop connection remains.

  Are you sure that you connect the same way? If the error you get is "ORA-01017: invalid username / password; connection refused"it looks like a case sensitivity issue: to check that, try the setting sec_case_sensitive_logon false.

• RMAN, restoration of ASM no - asm environment!

  Dear friends,

  WE are running Oracle 11 GR 2 CARS as our PRODUCTION server. also, we have a single instance, DATAGUARD, where production data are replicated.

  On the end DATAGUARD, we take a weekly full backup RMAN. My db_name is 'isldb '.

  Now I want to restore the backup, RMAN COMPLETE the DATAGUARD server to a new server NO - ASM using file system normal... For this reason, I have to follow the procedure below:

  (1) take RMAN full backup of DATAGUARD END as a stage to mount and store it on ' / rmanback' file.  I use the below taken backup script:

  Run {}

  allocate channels d1 device type disk format ' / rmanback/isl/$TODAY/df_%U_%T';

  allocate channel device type d2 disc format ' / rmanback/isl/$TODAY/df_%U_%T';

  backup database effective additional 0 CHECK the LOGIC AS BACKUPSET COMPRESS;

  backup format ' / rmanback/isl/$TODAY/controlfile.ctlbk' (current controlfile);

  backup format ' / rmanback/isl/$TODAY/spfile.spbak' (spfile);

  ARCHIVELOG backup all;

  output channel d1;

  output channel d2;

  }

  (2) the transfer of the rman backup complete on a remote server on the same ' / rmanback' file.

  (3) in the new server, I take the scene nomount database using a spfile (spfile has a single entry: 'DB_NAME = isldb')

  (4) then I restore the controlfile successfully:

  [oracle@PRIM ~] target rman $ /.

• Restore/recovery of database HRCS90 question: psimage2.dbf

  People,

  Hello. On December 2, 2013, I backed up my instance of database with RMAN with Oracle Linux 5 HRCS90. the backup of the database to run correctly. 2 files 'full_0doqhbqc_13_1' and 'full_0eoqhce9_14_1' are saved in the /backup_database_instance_HRCS90 directory.

  
  Because my HRCS90 database has been damaged, I need to restore the database to HRCS90 until the time 02-Dec_13 when it is saved.

  First, do not use SET up to THAT. I have run the commands below:

  RMAN > CONNECT TARGET;

  RMAN > RESTORE database;

  The system is in place the error message as below:

  RMAN-06956: create the data file failed; Retry after the withdrawal of the /u01/oradata/HRCS90/psimage2.dbf of the OS.

  
  So, I delete the /u01/oradata/HRCS90/psimage2.dbf file and do not have a copy of it.

  I run RESTORE DATABASE and the psimage2.dbf file is re-created.

  The output from the RESTORE DATABASE command is:

  Restoration complete, duration: 00:15:54

  Finished restore at February 1, 14.

  Then I run the following command:

  RMAN > RECOVER DATABASE;
  Its release: WARNING: media recovery until all SNA 1947113. Finished recover at February 3, 14.

  Second time, because I need the database prior to 12/02/2013 when she has been saved, I run the command below:

  RMAN > RUN {SET until TIME ' to_date (February 12, 2013: 00:04:56 ',' DD-MM-YYYY: HH24:MI:SS') ";} RESTORE THE DATABASE ;}

  The commands run correctly and restore complete above.

  
  Then I run the command below:

  SQL > ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;

  His output: failure to change the db command. File 121 was created in the future of incomplete recovery. Data file 121: u01/oradata/HRCS90/psimage2.dbf.

  RMAN > RECOVER NOREDO of DATABASE;

  Its release: recover command failed. Data file 121 must be restored.

  
  121 data file is the u01/oradata/HRCS90/psimage2.dbf file. I have made sure the directory/u01/oradata/HRCS90/has rwx for all users and groups permissions.

  
  RESTORE DATABASE SET up THAT do not recreate the file psimage2.dbf RESTORE DATABASE while recreate the file psimage2.dbf.

  I deleted the psimage2.dbf file and cannot resume. I can't find the ORA-1248 by DBPITR article using a current controlfile (Doc ID 1558515.1).

  My question is:

  Any folk can tell me how to RESTORE/RECOVERY of database HRCS90 with the VALUE up to THAT in other way for example using the file command?

  or how to fix psimage2.dbf file that has been deleted by me?

  Thanks in advance.

  
  

  Congratulations! Your database is open so not required recovery (recovery database noredo).

  I'm glad that it worked for you. Since you open this database with reset logs, it is recommended that you take a Level0 backup costs.

• Restore/recovery of database HRCS90 how?

  People,

  Hello. On December 2, 2013, I backed up my instance of database with RMAN with Oracle Linux 5 HRCS90 as below:

  SQL > bootable media. (HRCS database is mounted but is not open.)

  SQL > "exit";

  [user@linux bin] $. / rman

  RMAN > Connect target;

  RMAN > configure channel device type disk format ' / backup_database_instance_HRCS90/full_%0_%s_%p'; (backup_database_instance_HRCS90 is the directory to store the backup files)

  RMAN > configure retention policy to recovery of 360 days window;

  RMAN > set up automatic backup of control file;

  RMAN > show all.

  RMAN > backup database;

  Then database backup is running properly. The 2 files 'full_0doqhbqc_13_1' and

  "full_0eoqhce9_14_1" are saved in the /backup_database_instance_HRCS90 directory.

  Because my HRCS90 database has been damaged, I need to restore the database to HRCS90 until the time 02-Dec_13. My questions are:

  First of all, I have to delete my current instance of the database HRCS90 which is corrupt?

  Secondly, I just do the follwing 2 commands one by one to restore the database:

  RMAN > restore database;

  RMAN > restore database;

  Thirdly, the commands above 2 restore database HRCS90 in the 2 files automatically in the directory /backup_database_instance_HRCS90 on December 2, 2013?

  Finally, if the above 2 commands are not correct, how do I restore the database correctly on December 2, 2013?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  The control used when retrieving file contains references to files created after CAMILLE.

  It is possible to make a DBPITR using a current copy of the control file or a copy that contains files created after the DBPITR.  However, some additional steps are necessary to avoid the ORA-1248.

  Following article will help you.

  ORA-1248 by DBPITR using a current controlfile (Doc ID 1558515.1)

  Hello

  Now, only yesterday I took the full backup of the database (February 12, 2013). Now I want to restore back to 2 days (February 11, 2013---> my time target).

  Unfortunately, you cannot restore to February 11, 2013 by using the backup set February 12, 2013.
  CAMILLE, you must restore a previous backup before the time runs out.

  Kind regards

• RMAN restore issues

  Hi all
  
  I perform a Production to a Dev Server refresh. I made a full backup of the production and trying to restore in the dev Setup...
  
  I delivered the backup of the production to dev box... I created a database and put it in nomount mode...
  
  So I'm trying to restore the controlfile, but I am gettign the error below:
  
  
  RMAN > restore controlfile to ' / orabackup/bkp_030113/controlprod.ctl';
  
  From restoration to January 4, 13
  using the control file of the target instead of recovery catalog database
  allocated channel: ORA_DISK_1
  channel ORA_DISK_1: SID = 198 type device = DISK

  Please suggest.

  RMAN-06172: no AUTOBACKUP couldn't find or handle specified is not a valid copy or a piece

  Can you check the backup file permissions after you have moved production to the development area?

  $ls ltr - /orabackup/bkp_030113/controlprod.ctl

  And make sure you set DBID of production database.

  BTW, FRA is configured?
  Work around you can try to disable and after successful restoration, again, you can activate FRA.

• How to validate a rman restore?

  Hi gurus,
  
  IM using 11.2.0.3 database oracle under redhat 5.3.
  
  I do every Monday and Thursday prod of a restore/recovery with a full backup of database to test the database (in a different server).
  
  I think I can use a view or a table to check if the restore was successful or not with this script:
  
  Select end_time, status, input_type
  v $ rman_backup_job_details
  where input_type <>'ARCHIVELOG;
  
  For example, I did a restore 12 and 15 this week, but it is appear:

  END_TIME  STATUS                  INPUT_TYPE
  --------- ----------------------- -------------
  10-NOV-12 COMPLETED               DB FULL
  11-NOV-12 COMPLETED               DB FULL
  12-NOV-12 COMPLETED               DB FULL
  13-NOV-12 COMPLETED               DB FULL
  14-NOV-12 COMPLETED               DB FULL
  15-NOV-12 COMPLETED               DB FULL

  Why does appear other days if I omitted 'ARCHIVELOGS', is there another way to query only the result of rman backup restore/recovery?

  You can filter the output, something like this:

  select OUTPUT,
    case
      when upper(output) like '%RESTORE COMPLETE%' then 'completed'
      when UPPER(OUTPUT) LIKE '%FINISHED RESTORE%' then 'completed'
      else 'error'
    end
  from v$rman_output
  where
       upper(output) like '%RESTORE COMPLETE%' OR
       UPPER(OUTPUT) LIKE '%FINISHED RESTORE%'
   OR (
  -- to avoid the controled erros you are having:
                                     SUBSTR(upper(output),1,5) = 'RMAN-'  AND
                                     SUBSTR(UPPER(OUTPUT),6,5) <> '00571' AND
                                      SUBSTR(UPPER(OUTPUT),6,5) <> '00569' AND
                                      SUBSTR(UPPER(OUTPUT),6,5) <> '03002' AND
                                      SUBSTR(UPPER(OUTPUT),6,5) <> '06054'
       );
  

• RMAN restore level 0, 1 incremental level and ARCHIVELOGs

  I can't understand it and I read through the documentation and the web.
  
  On linux 64-bit in 11.2.0.3, I do weekly backups of level 0 and increments of 1 level every night. During the day, I also do ARCHIVELOG backups.
  
  I know I need to restore the LEVEL 0 database files (which I can do it), then later increments of 1 LEVEL of restoration (which I just can't), then apply ARCHIVELOGs (what I do).
  
  My problem is HOW to apply files of database LEVEL 1 of the above LEVEL 0 incremental backups restored?
  
  Thanks in advance!

  default channel: deletion of Journal archives

  And I haven't used the command "recover archivelog deletion of database; I used "recover the database.

  This isn't a problem. At the time of recovery, it is common that you see these messages.

  During restore, RMAN restores the archives at the local site, and finally when the recovery is complete, it deletes the temporarily stored archives.

  Thank you

  If you try to restore automatic backup, use
  Restore automatic backup controlfile;

  and the element of particular backup.
  Restore controlfile to ' / backup_dir/piece_name ";
