Should we backup Archivelogs special cold backups?

B version: 11.2
Version of the operating system: Solaris 5.10

Here's the script that we use for ad-hoc cold backups. Is it necessary to take the backup of the archivelogs when we do the backup to cold?
Size of the backup archivelog room is sometimes greater than the backup piece containing the full backup of the comic itself! Then lost too much disk space.

The script that we use
run
{
allocate channel t1 type disk;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
shutdown immediate;
startup mount;
backup  full database format='/mypath/ORCL_full_%U_%T.bkp' tag='ORCL_full';
backup archivelog all tag='arch_bkp' format='/mypath/ORCL_BKP/arch_%U_%T.bkp' delete input;
release channel t1;
}

Hello;

A cold backup is a consistent state. If you do not have to save them. No new archived logs generated during the backup or if you're still OK.

For other types of RMAN backup, you STILL want it. This ensures that backups of data taken when the command file is recoverable in a consistent state.

    I would like to know what the best backup option to use - hard E drive or external support please.

    Thank you

    Is drive E: only partition on the first HARD disk or a second HDD?

    In my opinion do not save data only on a HARD drive. I save my data always on an external HARD drive and every month I do a picture and save it to the HARD drive internal.
    Why? Each HARD drive (external too) may be defective. So if you back up your data on two s HDD like me, you will lose all the things because normally two s HDD will get not defective at the same time.

    I hope that you understand that a little bit.

    Nothing don't you have to worry about your SSL on IOM certificate is a CA signed cert. However, if it is self-signed, you need to import into the key system, that is to say of the cacerts file JDK.

    If you use libraries of customer of oim that intrinsically use wlfullclient.jar then you could provide arguments java to not verify the certificate, or even define a dummy security provider that does nothing, but it is bad practice.

  • Benefits of the PDB to the backup of the fence? More necessary Archivelog to Archivelog mode?

    Hello

    I have a little, no doubt simple, issues.

    So far, I did my backups on my test database while I closed the pluggable like this database:

    CLOSE PLUGGABLE DATABASE WISE15;
    BACKUP PLUGGABLE DATABASE WISE15 PLUS ARCHIVELOG;
    

    But I couldn't find any documentation that says that it is better to first close the database. So should I really have to close? It seems to work when it is open. But in a production environment, I suppose it might cause problems when users always access the database?

    My second question is: when my database is in archivelog mode, do I really need to add 'PLUS ARCHIVELOG' on each backup command?

    Thank you!

    1 it is not better to close the database. RMAN is an online backup tool, your backup will be consitent without worrying if your database is open or not.

    2 you should always backup your archivelogs. Why do play you with your database recovery.

    Don't forget the two laws of Murphy

    1 everything that can go wrong will go wrong

    2 Murphy was an optimist

    If you don't back up your archivelogs you will need to do online continuously.

  • RMAN backup destination changed on disk

    11.2/Solaris 10

    We had implemented the backups for a DB go using tape
     
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default
    It worked very well.

    Yesterday we had to take a special cold backup for this DB on the disk. By using the FORMAT parameter to point to the location of the disk, I took this backup in NOCATALOG mode IE. using the control as the catalog file.

    Now, when I connected to the catalog for this DB and did a WHOLE SHOW. I see that the backup location is changed on the drive even in the catalog.
     
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK BACKUP TYPE TO COMPRESSED BACKUPSET PARALLELISM 1;
    This has happened because of resynchronization. I think so.
    So whenever I take disk based backups by using the control as the catalog file, I connect the real catalog RMAN schema and return to the location of backup using SBT_TAPE
     
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default
    ?

    Hi Max,.
    You can declare your allocation of channels within a block run like this:

    Run {}
    allocate channels c1 type DISK;

    backup of database format <..>more archivelog format <..>;

    output channel c1;
    }

    That she should not update the Setup value of the channels, rman to the Ribbon in the catalog or the controlfile.

    ===============,

    Hello

    According to the Oracle Documentation:

    RESETLOGS specify RESETLOGS if you want Oracle database to ignore the content of the files listed in the LOGFILE clause. These files do not have to exist. Each redo_log_file_spec in the LOGFILE clause must specify the SIZE parameter. The database assigns redo all online log file groups to thread 1 and enables this thread for public use by any instance. After using this clause, you must open the database by using the ALTER DATABASE statement RESETLOGS clause.

    NORESETLOGS NORESETLOGS to specify if you want the Oracle server to use all files in the LOGFILE clause as they were when the database was last open. These files must exist and must be the online redo logs rather that restore backups. The database reassigns log files groups redo the nets to which they were previously assigned and re-active threads as they authorized beforehand.

    With RESETLOGS you're going to have a new incarnation of the database and are used when you perform incomplete recovery when you do not have full recovery stack to perform a full restore.

    Do I need a backup RMAN to test this statement?

    No, 'must' use RMAN. You can perform a recovery by the managed user. Personally its always preferable to use RMAN, but if you aren't aware of the working RMAN you can go forward with the managed user.

  • ORA-01194 and ORA-00604 when using backup controlfile set #2

    Oracle 11.2.0.1 database version
    Enterprise Linux 5.4
    Database is in archivelog mode.

    I'm trying to recover a database according to a backup controlfile to trace #2. Create the controlfile works very well, but recover the database fails.

    From what I understand, the recovery fails because it cannot roll forward - 39 sequence is in the online missing redo log file. However, the database opens with the restlogs option and I understand that it should use the archivelogs in order to roll back. Since it is a new controlfile he does not know the archivelogs, but he does not accept to register or use archivelog files.

    The recovery as shown in set #2 doesn't seem to work as expected. Any ideas?

    What worries me is that the value #2 of the controlfile to trace the contours of the database backup can be recovered even with the lack of recovery online newspapers, but apparently this is not the case. What I also don't understand, is why he simply not restore using the information of the archivelogs. The database was not shut down properly, but isn't always the case when you lose again-online newspapers?

    You are right. But it is especially the case.perform, create the new database and will stop immediately (without demolition) and remove newspapers online OS level. And try to recover the database using backup controlfile until cancel or just recover database until cancel then enter Word Cancel and resetlogs option database open. It will work. Because it actually do not need any recovery operation. But your case you need to recover the database. You consider backup restore las and perform incomplete recovery. I think you can do the first test.

  • iCloud backups / file management / free space

    I have trouble managing the use of space in my icloud account.

    I find it very intuitive and difficult to understand exactly what I am to be invited to do everything by managing the settings.

    In other words, I find some options very unclear.

    Signature in icloud on my mac through chrome browser, I am told that I use 4.4/5 GB.

    It is stated that most of this is my iPad.

    I suspect that most are backups of my real-world applications.

    There is nothing else I backup via iCloud.

    and I don't even save most of the data in applications.

    I usually back up on my mac and remove the actual data of the apps to save space on my pad.

    I tried to remove some of the saved app data

    but it has released only a few KB.

    When, on the ipad, I go to:

    Settings-> iCloud-> storage management

    and goes off a few backup app, as I said, not useful space is released.

    All this used a space could be due to many throughout the system to the top of the iPad.

    But there seems to be no option to remove individual backups, only to stop iPad backup completely and remove the content FULL of all my backups [or, for "extra space"-"ideally"):]

    In addition, it seems impossible to manage this through iCloud.com on my browser on mac OS x.

    It seems that I have to use my iPad, which is also unnecessary in this case.

    I prefer to manage it via my computer, using the keyboard and mouse and a respectable real file management interface; rather than some indigestible, imprecise, difficult to navigate, near-useless, icon-business, as it is.

    If anyone can help diagnose me exactly how much space is used,

    and how I can release disk space without having to stop my system backup and removing all existing backups together in order to have space [which seems completely redundant and the purpose of defeating]

    .... I'd highly appreciate such opinions.

    As a note on the side of criticism; I really find the iOS any system file management, with its 'fun icon' interface approach, but almost zero - control and utility in terms of management of files, to be very tedious / frustrating / tedious.

    Why not give me a "finder" style access to file systems; so I can see clearly what is in place, I can remove, etc.

    Sorry if this is State the obvious; but; in all there are no such problems with android and google reader.

    iOS has been closed like that since the first day. If you want or need a file system, you will need to use an Android device. Your comment has no value here. Apple does not take its direction from remarks made here.

    You can send your comments to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

    iCloud.com is not designed to handle files, only the content.

    From your iPad itself, go to settings > general > storage & use iCloud > iCloud > Storage manage and look in the section of backups . You should see backups that you created and its size, on iCloud for your iPad. Tap on your iPad and there is an option to delete the backup here.

    Your applications are not in your backup. They are stored on the App store, where they can be downloaded again if necessary. Toggling off the coast of the backup of the data of the App has questionable value because it is only of data an application creates, not the application itself. If you share an Apple ID with anyone or any other device, their content goes to iCloud as well. 5GB allowance is per Apple ID, not per device.

  • Backup to Time Capsule and an external hard drive

    Hi all

    For several years, I use as a router Time Capsule and a backup device. Recently I found information about to associate an additional external hard drive for backup. For me it's a backup just to be sure when my Time Capsule would fail.

    I found information on the internet that it was easy to switch between the two devices. I connected the external hard drive in the time Capsule.

    But after installing the external hard drive my Time Capsule is not able to back up more!

    Please, could you help me find a solution. It would be great for me.

    Many thanks in advance,

    Diana

    I suggest that you get first back ups goes again on the Time Capsule, then we can discuss adding the USB key as a second backup source.

    For now, if please power off the power and unplug the USB of the time Capsule.

    (Gear on the dock icon)... open Mac system preferences, then open Time Machine

    Make sure that Time Machine is running

    Click Add or remove disks

    Under the backup drives, make sure that the Time Capsule disk (named 'Data', unless you have changed the name) appears

    If it isn't, then click data under available disks

    Then, click on disk use

    Close the window and now, click the 'clock' Time machine at the top of the screen

  • How many CD/DVD or USB drives do need to backup my files

    I tried to do a full backup of my files, only to be tuyanteries outside after 10 CD then how many cd or DVD make. Since I got this labtop

    I never properly backed up my files.  For now, I get a message in the Panel this Windows backup is in need of a cd, dvd or usb to continue. All I want to do is a successful backup.

    Hello

    1. what version of Windows you are using on the computer?

    2. don't you get this message when creating a backup or this message keeps popping up even when you are not trying to create a backup?

    3 does the backup work correctly if you are backing up to a local drive or external hard drive?

    You may receive this error message because the backup is not contested, it always depends on the total size of the backup files. I suggest using any external hard drive for backup windows and check if the problem persists.
