ASM failover disk recovery

hi,
i configured ASM with two raw disks in server1....and i created DB and i imported 31gb data into it,
i created diskgroup as follows...
CREATE DISKGROUP DATA NORMAL REDUNDANCY
FAILGROUP failure_group_1 DISK
'/dev/diska1' NAME diska1,
FAILGROUP failure_group_2 DISK
'/dev/diskb1' NAME diskb1,
i disconnected one raw disk from server1,
after disconnection of one raw disk from server1, DB was up in server1 up and
i connected that disconnected disk to server2, i installed oracle software and grid software in server2
my question is how to bring DB up in server2 using that second disk2 ?
can you direct me ...and your help would be appreciable.......

What you are trying to do normally works if it is an OS or hardware level mirroring of disks where one mirror can be used to build the "things" on some other machine by breaking the mirror "through proper channel". I don't think you can do same for ASM mirror.
When you unplugged the ASM mirror, it should be in an incosistent state and hence it makes it unusable on some other server. This is theoritically a corrupted ASM miorror now.

Install Oracle 11.2 (ASM) failover on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Suite

Hi everybody,
I need installer Oracle 11.2 with asm on Failover Cluster Red Hat linux Suite (two servers), could someone help me?
There is documentation about that...
My idea is
- Installer oracle in both servers
- Installer Infraestructure Grid for asm in both server
- Create database on asm (ams disk shoud be same for boths servers)
Is soported gfs (global file system) and asm?
I have many doubts.
Thanks in advance.

I have several comments:
Don't use the RPM utility to install software. It does not resolve dependencies. As of RHEL 5, YUM or UP2DATE are the standard software management tools.
RHEL? Do you have a paid subscription or money to waste? If not, you will be much better off using Oracle Linux, because you can download it for free and also have access to all errata and patches for free (http://public-yum.oracle.com). If you need the RHCK kernel instead of the more advanced Oracle UEK kernel, which is optimized by Oracle for Oracle products, no problem, because Oracle Linux ships with both. If you want to use Linux ASMLib under RHEL 6, you need a RHEL subscription to download the kernel module. The Oracle UEK kernel includes the driver.
Also if you use Oracle Linux, you can install the oracle-rdbms-server-11gr2-preinstall package, which triggers the installation of all prerequisite software and takes care of kernel parameters and creating the Oracle account. You then simply set a password for the Oracle account and you're done.
RHEL 6.0. Why such an old version and not 6.4?
According to my records, you can use the following command under RHEL 6 to install the 11gR2 prerequisite software. Yum will automatically install other depended software as required.
yum install compat-libstdc++-33 compat-gcc-34 compat-gcc-34-c++ \
elfutils-libelf-devel ksh sysstat make gcc gcc-c++ compat-libcap1 \
glibc-devel glibc-common glibc-headers libstdc++-devel libaio-devel

Data recovery software that help recover lost partition due to using Disk Recovery Assistant on a 2TB HDD?

I Just use the Disk Recovery Assistant on my 2TB HDD and it wipe it clean. What are the best data recovery tool out there that allow me to recover the lost partition and see the file in folders view not files view like in some data recovery like Disk Drill?
using ML 10.8 something I tried appleXsoft but no luck.

My best suggestion is
Stellar Phoenix Mac Data Recovery
http://www.macintosh-data-recovery.com/
Download the free trial version of the software and use the option "Search Lost/Deleted Volumes", It will scan the drive and show you all lost partitions list on preview. Once you click on the selected partition it will show you again 3 options ,
Quick Recovery- This option is very effective on case of volume corruption
Advanced Recovery- This option recovers data from formatted volume and scans each and every block of volume for lost data.
Deleted File Recovery.- It scans unused blocks of volume to recover deleted data.
On successful recovery the software will show the files in folders view with the folder structure..In case you are unable to see the desired results you would need to go for Raw Recovery which will show results on file basis.This option is only required incase the previous option does not give you the desired results.
Cheers !!

After disk recovery, restoration incomplete error - error during PININST_BBV - and can't access BIOS

Hi I haad got :Ultrabook HP ENVY 6-1103el
I performed a disk recovery (with disks made myself) to wipe the hard drive. Got to disk 4 of 4 when HP Recovery Manager window appeared with following error message when I click the Details button:

The process will cause CTO panic because the image might not be normal...
There are 3 options, Save Log, Details, Retry. When I try 'Retry' it asks for recovery media. I've put my recovery disk 6 and disk 1 in, but nothing happens. Oddly enough, the command prompt (cmd.exe) is open at this point. Now whenever I restart the laptop it goes to the same restoration error screen with the command prompt open and minimized in the lower left hand corner.
Pressing F10 (BIOS Setup) or F11 (System Recovery) after starting doesn't do anything, it just goes straight the the Restoration Incomplete message. Pressing Esc during start goes to the Startup menu, but pressing F10 or F11 there just does the same thing. F2 System Diagnostics works. I ran quick memory check, everything passed. I ran the long hard drive check. Overall it passed, and each one passed except for optimized dst it said 'not available'. When I choose BIOS Management from Diagnostics UEFI, and try either a BIOS Update or BIOS Rollback, I get 'The selected BIOS image was not available.' My system's BIOS ID is F.23. When I try to select a BIOS Image to apply, I've clicked through the file trees and there's nothing there to choose.
I tried recovering the BIOS pressing Windows and b key when starting. The screen stayed blank and the caps lock light kept flashing but nothing happened. The screen just stayed blank and no bios update screen appeared.
Did my BIOS become corrupted during the system restoration from disk?
Any suggestions or options?
Thanks.

Hi larag,
Thank you for your reply.
As I stated in my original post, I suggest you contact HP support and explain in detail the events that happened, when you tried to do the recovery. The contact information is in my original post.

Database is not created on ASM configured Disks

hi,
I have installed Oracle 11gR2 Grid Infrastructure and Automatic Storage Management for a Standalone Server through "Grid" user. After then I install Oracle Database 11gR1 Software through "Oracle" User. There is no problem occure during the installation of these software. The OS is OEL-5.4. AND
ASM configured Disks are "DISK1, DISK2 AND DISK3" and the Group Name is "+DATA".
The Problem is when i want to create Database and chose ASM configured disk for Database storage, at the database creation process on 27% an error occur that is "ORA-03114 Not connected to Oracle". Sir but when i chose File System for Database Storage, Database created successfully.
Sir i am new in Oracle Grid Infrastructure and ASM please help me.

Hi buddy,
Are there errors in the alert.log of RDBMS istance, and what about traces ? Have it been generated ?

Recommendations for best disk recovery software

I'm reading up on various reviews on disk recovery software, but just wanted to get some of your opinions and recommendations.
I use to use Nortons back in the old days of System 7 and beige G3s but haven't need to use such software until now, so i'm a bit out of the loop.

As far as Recovery is concerned I would say Data Rescue is pretty good.
http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
More important as I am sure you are aware however is a good cloning and or backup plan. I have a Lacie d2 external with three partitions (clone, data and emergency boot). I use Super Duper for the cloning, also manually backup very important files on data archive. Both the clone and emergency boot partitions are bootable.
And, I also burn very, very important files to CD/DVD.

Old iPod Will not leave disk recovery mode; wont register on comp

Hey,
I have my old, black-n-white, 15gb scrollwheel iPod. A few days ago, the folder icon popped up. I followed Apples troubleshooting and reset the iPod to disk recovery mode. Now the only thing is that it is stuck in "Disk Mode -- OK to disconnect." and nothing i can click press will exit that screen, not even trying to reset again. Note, the hold button icon still properly shows up on the screen when it is switched.
To make matters worse, when I try connecting my iPod to my computer, it will not get recognized by the comp, and makes my iTunes freeze and I am forced to close it.
So, what is up? did my iPod die? i just dont want to buy a new one. =(

Hold down the PLAY and MENU buttons to get it out of disk mode. Wait until you see the Apple logo on the screen. It may take as long as 10 to 20 seconds before it happens.

How ASM Manages Disk Failures

Hi,
Was going through Oracle ASM document and came across this topic, need some clarification on this please.
"The disks are first taken offline and then automatically dropped. In this case, the disk group remains mounted and serviceable. In addition, because of mirroring, all of the disk group data remains accessible. After the disk drop operation, Oracle ASM performs a rebalance to restore full redundancy for the data on the failed disks". -- What does this mean?
Thanks

Simple example.
Single normal redundancy diskgroup DATA1 with 2 failgroups called MIRROR1 and MIRROR2. Each failgroup has 3 x disks (let's say 512GB).
Disk 2 in failgroup MIRROR1 fails. The MIRROR1 failgroup is not available as a result. DB operations continue unaware of the problem as MIRROR2 is online and working fine.
The dba cannot fix disk 2 within the meantime for repair period of ASM. ASM forces disk 2 out the MIRROR1 failgroup by force dropping it. MIRROR1 has now 2 disk remaining.
ASM starts a rebalance process to stripe the contents of the MIRROR1 failgroup across 2 disks - as oppose to 3 disks. If the space in use fits on 2 disks the rebalance operation will succeed. MIRROR1 will become online and available. But it will only be able to carry 1TB of data, as oppose to MIRROR2 with it 3 disks and 1.5TB capacity.
If the space used cannot be striped across the remaining disks in MIRROR1, the rebalance will fail due to insufficient capacity and the failgroup will remain offline.
In either scenario, the recommended action is to add a new 512GB disk to MIRROR1, reverting it back to a 3 disk failgroup, and then rebalance the failgroup.

Using the disk to disk recovery tool to image a new hard drive

I have a new SSD hard drive that I am installing and want a fresh version on Win 7. I plan on using my existing hard drive just for data and to maintin the recovery partion in case I need it again. I want to do a disk to disk recovery. I get to the point in the Recovery 4.3 software where it prompts me to confirm I will loose all my data on the partition, but I do not see where it allows me to choose the new hard drive. I do not want to loose my data so I exited out. Did I not go far enough into the processs to allow me to choose the hard drive? I have not found a manual for the recovery tool to show me what's next. I have the new hard drive installed in the ultrabay.

Thanks,

Check on your HDD win 7 RNR if you have the Create Product Recovery option. This will back up the Recovery Partition. First disc is bootable recovery, you can use a CD. Second disc is data, try a DVD for this. It may create a 3rd disc.
When you get done, you want a recovery partition on the SDD. The recovery bootable and partition are fairly small.
Thus, when you use these disc to populate the SDD, you have a recovery partition on the SDD.
When I ordered my PC, I ordered 2 HDD's 120GB and 320GB. Windows does not let you select where the operating system goes to. It uses the first HDD it finds (which might be your win 7 Hdd!!). In my case, it came from the factory with (vista) on the 320GB. I had to swap them, similar to what you are doing. I used the Product Recovery disk set AND had to disconnect the 320GB for the recovery to go to the 120GB.
What size is your HDD and SDD? I would take backups of your Win 7 system. Last thing you want is a messed up win 7 HDD. If all works, you will have a bootable HDD and SDD and might have to decide which one to use every time you boot up.
Down the road, when SSD is as you like it, copy the HDD data over to the SDD. Erase the HDD, then copy the HDD data back over. Thus HDD is truly a second hard drive(data drive).
Side note: The placement of the New win 7 is dependent on the Logic of the Recovery partition. I would guess where ever the Q drive is created, that is where the operating system is going to go. Could be Win7 install (standalone win 7 install DVD) logic Now allows you to choose Hard drive 1 or Hard drive 2,

Pros/Cons for a Seperate ASM Archivelog Disk Group

We have a non-ASM best practice of having our archivelogs on their own filesystem. When there is a major problem that fills up this space the datafiles (separate filesystem) themselves are not affected and the backup area used by RMAN (separate filesystem) is fully functional to perform archivelog sweeps.
My DBA team and I have the same concern about having the archivelogs in the FRA along with backups, etc., in the ASM. We are proposing a third disk group just for archivelogs. Also a best practice of always having at least 1 spare disk available that can be added to a disk group in an emergency.
Is there a reason why this is not a good idea or unnecessary? My team is new to ASM and I don't pretend to understand all the real world intracies of Oracle managing the FRA space/archivelogs/rman backups/etc.Thanks for any insight you can offer.

I have read and am quite aware of Oracle's recommendations and have been an Oracle DBA since the venerable 7.0.16 release. In fact I have read through some 20 or so related Oracle white papers concerning ASM. However, in the 24 years I have been working with databases I am also well aware things don't always go as planned. You will fill up a disk group eventually whether that is from unexpectedly high data activity, human error, monitoring being down or any number of possibilities.
So if we make the assumption that the FRA disk group will be out of space due to excessive numbers of archivelogs and/or RMAN retention widow and backup growth problems how do we quickly solve the issue while my prod DB is unavailable? Ah the real world ... If archivelogs and backups are in the FRA I really only have three choices, 1. add a disk to the disk group if I have one, or 2. manually delete files thus potentially impacting recoverability or 3. possibly temporarily reducing my RMAN recovery window to allow RMAN to clean out "old" backup sets (thus impacting my SLA recovery window. Yes there are probably other variations on these also.
Therefore, we are proposing having a best practice of a spare disk available and a seperate disk group for archivelogs so we have two potential methods to recover from this scenario. Now back to the original question, is there a reason why a seperate disk group for archivelogs is not a good idea or unnecessary?
Thanks

ASM lost disk, rebuilt disk grp. No dbid, how to copy ctl file to ASM?

Hi all,
I'm trying to help out on what is turning out to be a real challenge.
This looks to be Oracle 10.1.0.4.0 (version showed by rman and sqlplus).
There is ASM...but it was set to redundancy of EXTERN, but not really external redundancy. This is a test box, and I guess they were just trying to use what disks they had....I dunno, it was set up long before I got here.
Out of all the instances I've had to look at....for this one server, I have no DBID's documented.
This is a HP-UX box....they replaced the bad ASM drive, and I rebuilt the DATADG disk group.
RMAN settings...well, show all just gives defaults, as that I don't have a control file in place. This was, however, set up to autobackup control files and spfiles...but I don't know the DBID, and can't figure how to find the DBID....
I did, however, find the snapshot controlfile...and hoping I could use that.
I am, however, stumped as to how to copy this copy of the control file, into ASM.
I have found and old pfile that I can use to start the instance. I have started it nomount with this.
I looked at the parameter for control file and found:
SQL> show parameter control_file
NAME TYPE VALUE
control_file_record_keep_time integer 7
control_files string +DATADG/instance/control01.ctl
, +DATADG/instance/control02.c
tl, +DATADG/instance/control03
.ctl, +DATADG/instance/control
04.ctl
So, I know where they are to go. This is such an old version, I guess there was no ASMCMD...I can't find that command.
I'm thinking, if I could find a way to copy this snapshot of the control file onto ASM in the old places it was, I could startup up the database, and it would then be able to restore and recover with the RMAN backups?
Any suggestions?
cayenne

Just a quick update on this.
I was able to find a snapshot of the controlfile on disk....
I went into asm and recreated the directory where the controlfiles were kept, and used rman to copy the snapshot controlfile to where the originals were kept:
export ORACLE_SID=+ASM
connect with sqlplus and do:
SQL> alter diskgroup DATADG add directory '+DATADG/instance';
Diskgroup altered.
Then in RMAN:
restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control01.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control02.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control03.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control04.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
I then got out of RMAN...back into sqlplus and mounted the database instance:
SQL> connect / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> alter database mount;
Database altered.
Checking to see backups:
RMAN> run {

RMAN Backup to ASM and DISK Multiple Locations

Hi
We currently have a RAC database that backs up to the Flash Recovery Area on ASM.
Is there any way of backing up to ASM and Local Disk at the same time? I know you can configure multiple locations but what is the syntax to backup to ASM?
I've seen the line
format '/disk1/......','/disk2/.....' etc which backs upto multiple locations.
Is ASM just '+data/......' ?
Thanks

as you said, use the ASM path in the format scope.
also if you want to backup the DBF's as is(not a backup set) - use:
backup as copy database;
good luck

Help required . Disk recovery and OS installation

Hallo, I'm following a procedure I was given by a Genius at Apple Store. I had an issue with the disk and I formatted and I was trying to install the OS. it went for Internet recovery and it asked me to install Mountain Lion (which I hadn't bought before. So I wasn't allowed to install it.
Then I went to a different machine, a MacBook and I bought with my apple I'd the mountain lion OS. But it yet doesn't allow the installation.. Any hint?
Thanks a lot
Andrea

Also another question. To install the SDK1.4, do I just install it like I normally do as in a Win98 box? I thought there was a XP plug-in that needed to be downloaded and installed too some time ago? Did the plug-in later became built into the installation bundle? I read somewhere there was a legal judgement made to force Microshaft to support Java?
Sorry I've been out of the XP loop...

ASM CREATE DISK FAILED

i am getting this error while trying to create disk
[root@dbanew sysconfig]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VOL1 /dev/sda3
Marking disk "/dev/sda3" as an ASM disk: asmtool: Unable to clear device "/dev/sda3": Input/output error
[FAILED]
[root@dbanew sysconfig]#
could any please look into this and help me

try to clear the disk with the command:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda3 bs=4096 count=10000
and after that do your createdisk. perhaps there are some infos in the diskheader that prevents
asmlib from doing its work.
