ASM database cloning

Oracle 10.2 is running on Unix ASM file system. I want to clone this database to another Unix server using cold backup and recreate the controlfile with new db name
from ASM file system to non-asm file system

Can I take rman cold backup from source server and move the backup to target server and execute it in target(auxiliary) server ?What are you asking? You don't 'execute' a backup.
Are you asking if you can restore an rman cold backup onto a different server, createing a copy of the original database. If that is you question, the answer is "yes", and you've been given at least two differente references on how to accomplish it. Do you have any more specific questions? Something in one of the references that you are having difficulty understanding?

COLD BACKUP DATABASE CLONING with +ASM

Hi,
I need some help to clone the database using Cold backup with +ASM. Can somebody help me on this
Here is the steps we did on Source Database.
1. Copied all the $ORACLE_HOME from Source to TARGET.
2. Created pfile from spfile.
3. Created backup control file on the Source.
Questions:
=======
1. Source has 3 diskgroups, do we need to create new 3 disk groups on the TARGET ?
2. If we needed 3 new disk groups on TARGET, how can we move all the data from SOURCE diskgroup to TARGET disk group, Do we need to use RMAN?
Please let me know what else need to do to bring up the TARGET database.
Thanks
Dheeru.

Hi,
1. Source has 3 diskgroups, do we need to create new 3 disk groups on the TARGET ?Not necessarily.
2. If we needed 3 new disk groups on TARGET, how can we move all the data from SOURCE diskgroup to TARGET disk group, Do we need to use RMAN? Yes, use RMAN to clone/duplicate the database.

Ok, connect to auxiliary intance and post

Hi,
I have an ASM database instance in Oracle 10g in windows XP environment.
I want to know how to take backup from ASM database and store it in tape drive.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the immediate reply.
Since I am very new to this concept could you please let me know how to perform backup through RMAN.
Also let me know whether backup through RMAN generates any dump file so that it can taken to tape or can be used for import.

Listener error when configuring ASM database

Hi There,
I've currently installed the Oracle grid infrastructure 11.2. and the Oracle 11.2 database software on Linux 5.5. The document I am following tells me to add this entry to the listener file I am confused ... Shuold there be two Listeners on the server? One for Grid Infrastructure and one for the database software. When I installed the Grid Infrastructure it installed a listener under the GRID oracle home. Thanks
46. Set-up a $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora file as detailed in the File Listings below.
Document i am using:
http://www.oracle-wiki.net/startdocshowtoinstalloracle11glinuxasm
As well, once I got to #25 I can not log into SQLPLUS so i had to skip to #39 and then go back .....
Please help I am very new to ASM.....

Partial EBS Database Cloning

Hi
Is it possible to have a cloning strategy of bringing over a small percentage of data to the non-prod environments during the database cloning process for an EBS Env? Say 50% in Test and 25% in Dev.
If possible this would cut down on long-term storage cost and data liability, but I am not sure if this is possible. If possible then I would like to understand the amount of effort how this would be implemented.
Has anyone done this? Any pointers will be much appreciated. We are on R12.1.3 with HR and Payroll.
Thanks

ThanksRapid Clone doesn't support partial cloning.
One of the options would be cleaning/purging the data on the target instance once the full/complete clone is done -- Search the forum for cleaning/purging and you will get many hits.

When you are performing this task , is the ASM diskgroup "DATADG" mounted or existed.. try to figure out that first whether the diskgroup is mounted/existed or not .. And also when incomplete recovery is performed oracle creates the online redolog files when you start the db with resetlogs..

Automatic ASM & Database up After starting CRS

Hi Experts,
My CRS version is 11.1.0
Due to certain problems, CRS unable to communicate with daemons.
Later after stopping & starting CRS daemons, ALL the ASM & Database came up automatically. I like to know how it will start all these automatically?

784585 wrote:
I can verify and trouleshot.
My question is how the ASM & Database came up automatically?#crsctl start crs
will start all the resources available in the clusterware
that why ASM and Database Instances came up.
check your crs logs. you will understand.
after restarting or reboot the system you have to wait for sometime ,
#crs_stat -t
if the resources status is either offline or unknown you should check your crs logs.
you can stop and start the services as you have done.
#crsctl stop crs
#crsctl start crs
as you written, by seeing logs, you can verify and troubleshoot

Move datafile from asm datafile database to non asm database

Hi Nice morning all DBA Guys, I want move datafile from asm database datafile to non asm configurated database. Hoe to move this?
Datafiles like this
+DATA/saico/datafile/users.259.631612183
+DATA/saico/datafile/DBA.XXX.XXXXXXXXX
Regards
S.Azar

The all files movement of asm to non-asm and vice-versa is given in document id 252219.1 on metalink. Please look at the same. In nut shell you have to do the following:
1. Start your database with ASM.
2. Create pfile from spfile.
3. Edit pfile to reflect controlfile name in file system location.
4. SQL> Startup nomount.
5. Use RMAN to copy the control file from ASM to NON-ASM.
RMAN> RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM '<filename_of_old_control_file>';
6. SQL> alter database mount;
7. Use RMAN to copy the database from ASM to NON-ASM.
RMAN> BACKUP AS COPY DATABASE format '/u01/oradata/nonasmdb/datafile/%U';
8. From RMAN
RMAN> SWITCH DATABASE TO COPY;

What is the exact difference between Database Cloning and Database Refresh?

Hi,
Can anybody tel me the exact difference between Database Cloning and Database Refresh?
I Have some conflicts in these topics.
Thanks
Rajesh

Refresh is what it says, "refresh" . You have a main site which would always have the data being inserted into it. There would be another site which would remain some where else . This site needs to be refreshed with the primary site. So you need to do export from the primary, push it to the secondary site and done!

Database Cloning or Software Cloning

Hi,
Can anyone explain what is database cloning & software cloning available in oracle 10g ?
With Regards
Kccrga

In addition to the above replies.
Let's say you have a Production database (PROD) is running on Linux/Unix Server (AAA). Here you wanna clone your database and Oracle Home (Oracle Software Direcotries) from Server AAA to server BBB. Oracle Home cloning is nothing but software cloning.
Software Cloning: This can be done only once until and unless any Oracle Patch applied on it.
Database Cloning/Refresh: This needs to be done whenever the updated datais required in the test/developement databases from production.
Software Staging: This can be done once when we install Oracle Software. It means that we need to copy the Oracle Software CDs in one area on the server for the future installation of the same software.

Sabdar syed.
