Unregistering of a database from RMAN Catalog

Hello,
We had set up RMAN backup though RMAN Catalog for one of our database.
We later decided not to take the backups of this particular database. One of the DBA did something but what we can see now is that -
1. Target database is not registered in the catalog so no information can be gathered rman prompt after connecting to catalog through target database
2. But the recovery catalog "rc_backup_datafile" is showing as if it has old backups
We know that the tapes don't have the backup of this database.
Question - How to remove information from recovery catalog for a database in such a situation where although the database is not registered in the catalog but somehow the information related to old backups still persists in the catalog tables.
Thanks!

Thanks Tycho, for my purpose DBMS_RCVCAT.UNREGISTERDATABASE worked fine.
I have another question though -
We have compressed backup for one of the database/
If I look at backupset by executing "list backupset xxxxxxx;" command it shows the correct compressed value (in GB) of the backup set.
BUT when I look at the rc_backup_datafile table of the rman catalog for the size of of the backupset, it shows the uncompresses size of the backupset. I am using following query -
select BS_KEY,SUM(blocks*block_size)/1024/1024/1024 GB from rc_backup_datafile where DB_NAME='CCSTG04' and BS_KEY=1 group by BS_KEY;
Question - How to check the compressed size of the backupset from the Catalog tables/views?
Thanks for your help on this!
Thanks!

Unregister database from the catalog

Is it possible to cancel the registration of a database from the catalog?

First you should delete all backups from the catalog database for the target. This isn't required but is easier accomplished with the target still registered.
Next, you'll need to obtain the DB_KEY and DBID from the RC_DATABASE view in the RMAN schema in the catalog database. Then you'll run the following as the RMAN user connected to the RMAN catalog database in SQL*Plus.
execute dbms_rcvcat.unregisterdatabase(DB_KEY,DBID);

Unregister from rman catalog

Dear All,
Currently our production backup is done by rman with catalog database. But I want to decommission it. I want to use the target database controlfile only for rman backup.
what is the right approach to configure it?

Currently our production backup is done by rman with catalog database. But I want to decommission it. I want to use the target database controlfile only for rman backup.
what is the right approach to configure it?No ned to confiugre, while connecting to RMAN or in backupjob scripts just do not mention catalog connectivity.
If any old backups available then register them with controlfile..
in case of catalog :-
rman target sys/****@prod catalog rman/rman@catlog
in case of no-catalog:
rman target sys/****@prod
to register old backups:-
RMAN> catalog start with 'location of backups';

Standby database from RMAN backup

I have been assigned to create a standby database from our RMAN backups in a different machine, as this is my first attempt at recovering, I am struggling a bit. I would appreciate if someone can throw any light on what dumb mistakeI am doing here. I ahve absolutely no control over the back up script which is done by my vendor, but can do anything in the reocvery portion. I did try going through the documentaiton and other help available for the last 2 days.
Database : Oracle 10G R2
OS : Windows Server 2003
My backup script is

SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
backup database;
SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
backup current controlfile for standby FORMAT='J:\RMAN\RMAN_sc_%U';
For recovery of a standby database,
I have copied the the back up pieces and the archive logs to the standby server where I have just created an instance with the same name as production db.

I don't see ArchiveLog backups being done by the vendor's script. How do you backup the ArchiveLogs ?
In your post you state that you have copied the ArchiveLogs. Are they copied to the same log_archive_dest location ? RMAN needs to be "aware" of them. You can use the "CATALOG" command in RMAN to register them into the controlfile.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14194/rcmsynta011.htm#sthref230
A Standby Database uses a Standby Controlfile which is created from the Primary (with the "ALTER DATABASE CREATE STANDBY CONTROLFILE AS 'locaion';" command) and then copied over to the Standby server.

RegardsCould you try to run the rman at the target database server (MPOWER), instead of rman catalog server ant try to register your database?
Your rman client is higher than your target server. That could be the problem.

Create a clone database form rman catalog !

Dear Friend ,
I have a rman catalog database . I am using this rman catalog for against a database name 'testdb' . Everyday I take rman full backup of the testdb using the catalog database .
Now I create a another database which will be the clone of the testdb . I want to create it using that rman catalog database . Can I create a new database using the catalog database ?

Unable to restore and recover my Database from RMAN Backup

Dear All,
Iam practicing RMAN in Windows environment.
My configurations are
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 1; # default
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 'F:\Backup\%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION FOR DATABASE OFF; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM 'AES128'; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'E:\ORACLE\DATABASE\SNCFORCL.ORA';
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT 'F:\Backup\%U.bak';
Then i took the RMAN backup, now iam shutdown my DB and removed one logfile..
then i tried to startup the DB but it is saying
ORA-00313: open failed for members of log group 3 of thread 1
ORA-00312: online log 3 thread 1: 'E:\ORADATA\ORCL\REDO03.LOG'
So i tried to restore the Database with my rman backup
RMAN> restore database;
But i am unable to restore my logfile in the Datafiles location where as all other datafiles are restored but redo logfiles are not restored.
So, i am unable to recover my DB
Please tell me whether i am doing any mistake, what is the solution for my problem.
Thanks in advance
Mahi

All you restored was your datafiles.
Now issue recover database and that will apply the archive logs.
This is in the oracle documentation.
"You must restore backups of these archived logs for recovery to proceed. You can restore either to the default or nondefault location. If you do not have backups, then you must performing incomplete recovery up to an SCN before the first missing redo log and open RESETLOGS."
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/backup.111/b28270/osrecvry.htm
In this case after issuing restore database in RMAN, then issue this.
"Recover database"
It will then be an incomplete recovery. They should have been multiplexed. Did you restore your controlfile with this backup? You may have to issue an "Alter database open resetlogs;"

To calculate the size of backup for a particular database in RMAN catalog

Hi ALL,
Could you please guide me how I can calculate the size of backup data for a particular database in Recovery Catalog, if I am using Tapes as my backup media for recovery catalog.
Regards
Harpreet Singh

Hi,
I am not Up to the mark of your question ..
If you see the V$log you can get it.. Size of the redo logs can be determined either by examining the file system size or by reading the BYTES column on the V$LOG view. Then Check the number of redo Logs avaialble checked whether they are mirrored or etc., Combining the two figures we have a total redo log data at peak in one day. This is the amount of data that any backup facility or storage of Archive Redo Logs would have to take into account. This figure should be mitigated against the fact that manual switching of redo logs means that not all archived redo logs will be the full size.

Recover Database in RMAN vs SQL*PLUS

Hello,
Oracle 11.2.0.1, Oracle Linux 5.5 UEK.
I recently did a "recover database" in sql*plus, but an attempt to open the database gave ORA-01113, complaining the system tablespace requried more recovery. Then I used RMAN (nocatalog) and after the same "recover database" command I was able to open the database.
It seems there are differences between SQL*PLUS and RMAN "recover database" command. I have not been able to locate the chapter in the Oracle documentation that explains the difference. I have some ideas, but...
Thanks.
h3. Solution Summary:
The recover command in RMAN compared to SQL*Plus implements a more user friendly processing logic based on the current detected scenario. For instance, a RMAN recover database command may actually perform a "recover database using backup controlfile until cancel" and automatically apply all archived and online redo logs if available. The same can be achieved with the recover command in SQL*plus, but will have to be done manually.

Dude wrote:
I did not remove any datafiles or redo logs. it is the same restore operation as before, and again RMAN "recovery database" succeeds, whereas SQL recover has trouble. This tells me something is different between the two methods. For one, RMAN does not requrie to specify "using backup controlfile".
Maybe someting about "resetlogs" that that RMAN recover can handle and SQL recover not?No,problem is there.If you using rman execute RECOVER DATABASE it also will apply online logs(if available) also and as result you will get complete recovery however you must open database with resetlogs option due to you recovered database using backup controlfile.So also you can recover and open database applying this online logs.After executing RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE you have to pass full path of online log then press ENTER so log will apply and you can open database with RESETLOGS.See below

And these is not any difference.
Hope that help you and you got answer.

My pfile has new db_name , but while db creation rman setting to db_name to source dbname.. it should be new db name that i want create with new db name...
is there any RMAN command to specify new DB name it should set while running
sql statement: alter system set db_name = newdbname -- as part rman script execution...
it appears to be i should not touch the soruce db.. i have access to only source db rman backups and need to create another db with different dbname/sid.. please do help...

When you performing RMAN duplicate why you making your script so complicated?
Your instance name and DB name can be different, But what is the contents in your pfile "D:\TESTDELETE\initclonedb1.ora" ? please do post
Have you started any other services related to ORACLE? check in start --> run --> services.msc any other active oracles services, Make sure you have clonedb1.
Startup in nomount
check the connectivity to target server.
SET NEWNAME FOR TEMPFILE 1 TO 'F:\app\HOME\oradata\clonedb1\TEMP01.DBF';Why you mentioning SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE ? You have option of db_file_name_convert/log_file_name_convert in case if your file system different in Target & auxiliary.
BACKUP LOCATION 'F:\app\HOME\flash_recovery_area\orcl\'When you have backup in same location why you are mentioning this clause?
First run duplicate from auxiliary server as
rman target sys/*****@prod auxiliary /
RMAN> duplicate target database to "db_name";
Am not sure what you are trying to do. is it 11gR1 or 11gR2?
You have option of duplicate from active database without having backup also..
here some links please check it.

How to get RMAN catalog information from Target database?

Hi,
How to get RMAN catalog information from Target database because i don't know about catalog database? is it possible?
Thanks

If you run RMAN backups of a target database using a Catalog schema in another database, the target is not aware of the catalog.
The RMAN backup script would have the connection identifier for the Catalog.

RMAN CATALOG에서 TARGET DB를 UNREGISTER하는 방법

제품 : RMAN
작성날짜 : 2001-05-28
RMAN CATALOG에서 TARGET DB를 UNREGISTER하는 방법
===============================================
1) UNREGISTER 하고자 하는 Database를 RMAN CATALOG에서 확인한다.
SELECT * FROM RC_DATABASE;
2) UNREGISTER하고자 하는 DATABASE에 속한 BACKUPSET들을 모두 제거한다.
- 제거하고자 하는 BACKUPSET을 알아내는 방법
RMAN> list backupset of database;
- BACKUPSET을 제거하는 방법
RMAN> allocate channel for delete type disk;
RMAN> change backupset XXX delete;
* 위에서는 DISK에대해 CHANNEL을 설정하였지만 TAPE에 대해 CHANNEL설정을
하려면 아래와 같은 COMMAND를 수행한다.
RMAN> allocate channel for delete type 'sbt_tape';
또한 XXX는 'list backupset of database'의 결과 중에서 'LIST OF KEY'의
값을 의미한다.
3) 다음과 같은 PROCEDURE를 RECOVERY CATALOG에서 수행함으로써 DATABASE를 UNREGISTER한다.
execute dbms_rcvcat.unregisterdatabase (db_key, db_id)
* DB_KEY와 DB_ID는 다음과 같은 QUERY문에서 알아낼 수 있다.
SVRMGR> select * from rc_database;
EXAMPLE:
========
Unregistering ORCL database:
1) The following will list the backupset for the database that we want to
uncatlog.
RMAN> list backupset of database;
RMAN-03022: compiling command: list
RMAN-06230: List of Datafile Backups
RMAN-06231: Key File Type LV Completion_time Ckp SCN Ckp Time
RMAN-06232: ------- ---- ------------ -- --------------- ---------
RMAN-06233: 858 1 Full 16-SEP-98 253487 16-SEP-98
RMAN-06233: 858 2 Full 16-SEP-98 253487 16-SEP-98
RMAN-06233: 858 3 Full 16-SEP-98 253487 16-SEP-98
RMAN-06233: 858 4 Full 16-SEP-98 253487 16-SEP-98
==================================
2) The following will show allocation of a delte channel, deleting the
backupset, and running the list command to confirm that the backupsets were
removed. The delete command will remove the backupsets from the backup location.
RMAN> allocate channel for delete type disk;
RMAN-03022: compiling command: allocate
RMAN-03023: executing command: allocate
RMAN-08030: allocated channel: delete
RMAN-08500: channel delete: sid=10 devtype=DISK
RMAN> change backupset 858 delete;
RMAN-03022: compiling command: change
RMAN-03023: executing command: change
RMAN-08073: deleted backup piece
RMAN-08517: backup piece handle=C:\ORANT\DATABASE\RMANORCLBACKUP\DF_344180532_30

RMAN-06230: List of Datafile Backups
RMAN-06231: Key File Type LV Completion_time Ckp SCN Ckp Time
RMAN-06232: ------- ---- ------------ -- --------------- ----------
================================
3) From the recovery catalog:
SVRMGR> select * from rc_database;
DB_KEY DBINC_KEY DBID NAMERESETLOGS_ RESETLOGS
584 585 868345165 ORCL 192881 18-AUG-98

the error is always the same, a previous backup with RMAN was taken on tape on the source database (production).
Please help me to find what is wrong here!!

Hi mseberg
that's exactly i'm doing:
1. Create an Oracle Password File for the Auxiliary Database
a. done, passwd file created*
2. Create the Directory Structure on the remote server
a. done, all the admin structure wa created.*
3. Oracle Net Setup ( you need an entry for the CLONE in your TNSNAMES.ORA on both servers ) ( I use SID_LIST_LISTENER entry for static )
a. done, i have the entries working on my tnsnames.ora (source and target with static listeners)*
4. Create an Initialization Parameter File for the Auxiliary Instance ( I use Parameters DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT to change locations)
a. done, this is my initialization file:*
*.audit_file_dest='/u01/app/oracle/admin/sin/adump'*
*.audit_trail='db'*
*.compatible='11.2.0.0.0'*
*.db_block_size=8192*

*.log_archive_format='%t_%s_%r.dbf'*
*.memory_target=7340032000*
*.open_cursors=300*
*.processes=2000*
*.remote_login_passwordfile='EXCLUSIVE'*
*.sessions=2205*
*.undo_tablespace='UNDOTBS1'*
DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=('/u10/oradata/sin/','DG_DATA/',+*

+'/u05/oradata/sin/','+DG_DATA/',+
+'/u03/oradata/sin/','+DG_DATA/',+
+'/u02/oradata/sin/','+DG_DATA/')+
and this is my command from RMAN:

+}+
do you think the problem may be in the name of the database?, I am using the same name in the auxiliary
and when I get the error, I have the same dbid in both databases (source and destination)
Thanks
