Database Restore on another Server

Could someone please explain to me (or point me in the right direction) the procedure (How-To) on how to restore a database to another server?
please understand I'm just learning oracle and this is all new to me.
e.g., I have good backups of a database. I restore those database files (control files, dbf, redo logs) to another server. What are the steps in bringing that database up online on a different server?
...thanks

Restore database noarchivelog to another server in ASM

I have to migrate a database 10g with noarchivelog with filesystem to another server with ASM.
Could you help me to do it?
Thanks.

ok, I put the database in archivelog but I don`t understando the link "http://www.oracleflash.com/10/How-to-migrate-Oracle-datafiles-to-ASM-storage-via-RMAN.html".
First, I have moved the database to the new server, now I have the database with filesystem but in the final server with archivelog. OK.
The steps are:
first, I have to modify the parameters of db_create_file_dest, etc, to +ASM.
I hve to shutdown the database, open nomount, restore controlfile and backup as copy.
Is it correct?,
one question, the restore controlfile, I suppose that I have to have a previous backup with filesystem of controlfile?
Thanks.

How to test restore in another server?

Hi,
I want to test full backup (hot backup using RMAN) of my DB (11.2 SE) on another server (I didn't install DB on yet).
Saad,

to test the backup -which is done by third party softwareHow you restore really depends on how you backup the database !
Without knowing how the backup is done it would be incorrect to advice a single method to test restoration.
Nevertheless, you need to start with an installation of Oracle software (RDBMS, Binaries) on the new test server. You would have to install the same Oracle RDBMS Release and Version as the one that is running in your production server (where the backup was taken). If the third party software incorporates media management libraries, you'd need to install and configure them as well. Thereafter, the restore command depends on how the backup is done.

Database migration to another server

I have one production oracle 10g database on RHEL4 and I want to migrate the data with another server RHEL4.
I have an RMAN backup.
Is it sufficient the 2 commands
rman> restore database;
rman> recover database;
to migrate the data in the second server?
Thanks

Why don't you duplicate the source database on the target.

Oracle 10.2.0.3 Databases - Restore to New Server

We will soon be replacing an old server with a new server and I need to restore all Oracle 10.2.0.3 databases to the new server
and ensure Oracle functionality/connectivity with all databases.
I am in the process of testing and need advice and hopefully a 'Step by Step' process I can follow.
I am a systems admin - not an Oracle db admin - so please explain details of any commands I may have to run.
I have already tested once:
ran command prompt: sqplus / as sysdba
SQL>shutdown immediate;
Stopped all Oracle services:
Oracle Database
Oracle Listener
Oracle DBConsole
Installed Oracle 10.2.0.3 on new server
Ensured that the SID and all other Oracle services information matched the old server during installation on the new server.
Stopped all Oracle services on the new server (used the steps above).
Backed-up and test restored to new server.
Enterprise Manager shows: Listener Up Database Instance Down Agent Down
Any help would be appreciated

It would be good to know your operation system. I hope both new and old match or similar.
You can use RMAN to dumplicate you DB so you can follow [Creating a Duplicate Database on a New Host. Doc ID: 388431.1|https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&id=388431.1]
but a simple file system copy based manual duplication is also possible if new and old OS system is similar...

How slow - if database is on another server?

Hello,
I want to create a French version of my website.
The original - creme-de-languedoc .com is on a server in
Texas. Which is great for a .com. The French one is on a server in
France, which I'm told is better for .fr sites when Google.fr is
concerned.
Although the pages and images are all on the French server,
the database behind the site is still in Texas.
So far, the pages with dynamic data are loading very slowly.
Is this because the data is on another server in another country?
If so, what's the best way to speed things up? The DB is
added to daily, so I don't want to really have to update a copy of
it constantly on the French server.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
- Greg

Greg,
I don't know if Replicate would work for your purposes or
not.

One obvious caveat is that your subordinate server must only
allow
SELECT access. Probably some DB guru's will rip-me-a-new-one
for even
suggesting such a thing. Oh well, food for thought. Check our
MySQL.com and read up on Replicate, then ask someone there if
this is
pure folly.

Database Restore in SQL Server

Hello,
I have a Server in SQL Server 2012 which have two Databases called DB1 and DB2 . I have taken full backup of DB1 and want to restore in DB2 without Modifying its name,logical name and physical name. how can i do it ?
Prem Shah

Then apparently you are not using the Restore command correctly. We cannot read your mind nor see your desktop, so telling us that something doesn't work without specifying exactly what you are doing is not much help. And while I'm at it, the
term "server" is not particularly meaningful since it might refer to your physical machine or it might refer to an instance of sql server (and there can be multiple instances running on a physical machine). The best way to get answers and useful responses
is to post the query you are using. And the best way to learn sql server is to write your tsql commands rather than use the SSMS GUI.
And I'll point out that your original "requirements" are impossible to meet - 2 (or more) databases cannot share the same physical file names.

Advise on restoring to another server

Hi all.
I have the following scenario for an Oracle 10g DB SEO enviroment.
1) Production server: Oracle Linux Update 5, Oracle 10g Database. Database in archive mode. Archive with two archive destination: USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST and an alternate archive destination which will currently be a directory mounted through NFS.
2) Recovery Server: this server will have identical SO and DB version, but will be used in case production server fails. This server will hold a copy of the archive of production server.
In case production server fails, i'd like to be sure if this recovery procedure is feasible:
1) Restore a cold backup from production server to recovery server.
2) Recover the database from the most recent cold backup and apply of logs to cold backup up to just before failure. To do this one must:
2.1) Rewrite newest version of control and redolog files from production server: assuming you can actually access.
2.2) Start mount and recover database applying all required archive and redolog.
Please advise on this scenario. Is this possible? Am i missing something?

Look around on the intertubes for standby database scripts. Before dataguard, this was very common. There used to be a failover and failback whitepaper (maybe in the 8i timeframe?), but that may have disappeared in favor of more modern ways.
It used to be you could avoid double licensing by not bringing up the standby more than so many days a year or something like that, but I think nowadays you may be stuck. Check for current official policies.

After insall'g SAP can a backup be restored from another server?

I have installed SAP onto Server B, and would like to use a backup (third part vendor 'commvault') created by commvault on server A, to restore to Server B.
The SIDs are the same, and the same CDs were used to install SAP, the ONLY differneces are the IP addresses and the Server names
Will this work?
Maria

Hi Maria,
If the server names are different then, you cannot restore a backup.
In this case you have do a system copy.
Please go through sap help site for more details on system copy.

RMAN restore to another server - step by step

I have hot backups on tape, with catalog.
I have a prod database and a auxiliary database, but their names are the same..
I need to know the steps to perform a restore to auxiliary database´s machine (same plataform).
I´m doing the folowing for test purpose (the auxiliary database is in nomount state).
1) on AUXILIARY machine: rman target rman/pwd@PROD auxiliary sys/pwd
2) restore controlfile to 'c:\teste' from autobackup;
But, the controlfile was restored on PRODUCTION database´s machine.
Why?!
TIA
Rogério

Thanks for your help Kuljeet.
But i still have the same problem: if the *Backup must be available on new host" i need to restore to the new host. My problem is: I don´t know to do that using RMAN (my backup is in tape). In all my tests, the backup (controlfile) was restored to the target database´s host. If I try to restore the whole database, the target database will be overwrite. (Sorry for my english).
1) Where I connect to rman: in target database´s machine, in auxiliary database´s machine, etc? I think is in auxiliary database´s machine
2) How to connect? rman target user/pwd@database catalog user/pwd@database auxiliary sys/sys OR rman target user/pwd@database auxiliary sys/sys OR other?
Thanks

Filter List View by User and Groups in SharePoint Does Not Work on site Restore to another Server

We have a scenario where users from a group or seeing items of list views entered by users of other group.
For e.g, we have (ALL are Active Directory users and are authenticated as such)
GROUP A with USER-A1, USER-A2, USER-A3
GROUP B with USER-B1, USER-B2, USER-B3
GROUP C with USER-C1, USER-C2, USER-C3
We created views called
GROUP_A_VIEW
GROUP_B_VIEW
GROUP_C_VIEW
We created a web part for each of this view
And from Advanced Settings, added Target audience for each VIew with respect. For e.g. if Target AUdience is Group A, then USER-A1 will see items entered by himself or USER-A2, and USER-A3 but not the mbers of GROUP_B and GROUP_C
It works fine on the our development machine.
However when we backup and restore to other machine containing the same Active Directory users,
GROUP A members are seeing records entered by GROUP B
GROUP B members are seeing records entered by GROUP C
GROUP C members are seeing records entered by GROUP D
....etc.
Any help will be appreciated.
Murali Boyapati

Groups and users are stored locally in a cache on each site collection. Within that site collection they have IDs assigned which are used internally to identify those groups.
What is probably happening is that the groups you've targeted are being identified by IDs which are not consistent between your source site collection and your destination collection.

How to connect to a MySQL database in another server

Dear friends,
I am using Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.3 and I need to connect to a MySQL database located in another server.
I am trying to create a new connection, informing connection name, username and password. Supposing that "Hostname" is the IP server address, I click on "Choose database", but I always receive the following error message: "Status : Failure - Cannot connect to MySQL server".
Please tell me what I should do to solve this situation. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Franklin

You need to configure your mysql database to accept connection from your PC for the user you used.
For example,
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'someuser'@'somehost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Error when recovering a database in a new server

Hi folks,
I took a full RMAN backup from a Windows Server 2003 32bit and tried to restore it in a new server (Windows Server 2003 64bit). The restore was apparently ok, but when recovering, I got this error:
archived log for thread 1 with sequence 0 is already on disk as file /u01/app/oracle/oradata/GIEVOTE2/redo01.log
Oracle Error:
ORA-01547: warning: RECOVER succeeded but OPEN RESETLOGS would get error below
ORA-01194: file 1 needs more recovery to be consistent
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/GIEVOTE2/system01.dbf'
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 06/15/2010 14:04:59
RMAN-06053: unable to perform media recovery because of missing log
RMAN-06025: no backup of archived log for thread 1 with sequence 1041 and starting SCN of 1745356128 found to restore
I tried to recover using backup controlfile until cancel but same error. I don't need to apply any archivelog as it is a testing env.
Info:
Oracle Server: 10g R1 (10.1.0.4)
DB Type: Single Instance
Thanks in advance,

You do not show your rman script, but if you are restoring to another server, you will need to do an incomplete recovery
This will require a 'set until' parameter.
eg:
run {
set until sequence xxx thread 1;
allocate channel dev1 type disk;
recover database;
sql 'alter database open resetlogs';
or
run {
set until time "to_date( '22-03-2010 10:00:00', 'DD-MM-RRRR HH24:MI:SS')";
allocate channel dev1 type disk;
recover database;
sql 'alter database open resetlogs';
If you do not use this it will keep requesting logs until it finds the end of thread marker (EOT) in a log, which occurs when the database is shutdown, and this will be a complete recovery
