Backup from rman coldbackuk

DB 10.2.0.5
OS Linux
I restore the database from a rman cold backup. I am getting the below error while starting the database.
SQL> alter database open;
alter database open
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01589: must use RESETLOGS or NORESETLOGS option for database open
Is it needed to start the database in resetlog mode after rman cold backup restore.

Yes. RMAN does not backup the online redo log files. In order to open the database, the redo log files need to be created using the RESETLOGS option. Alternatively, you can use the OS to perform a backup of all files while the OS is shutdown, including the redo log files.

DELETE ONLY 3 DAYS BACKUP FROM RMAN

Hi,
How we can delete only 3 days of backup from RMAN.
Our retention policy is 15 days.
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a strange requirement, but nonetheless, you could issue:
RMAN> list backupset;and then find the backups that correspond to the days in question and then delete them with:
RMAN> delete backupset <day3_backupset#>, <day5_backupset#>, <day7_backupset#>;

Removing RMAN backup files from RMAN prompt

DB version: 10.2.0.4
OS : AIX
Due to space constraints, we had to change our retention policy today. So, i need to remove some old backup files manually to free up some space. Should i remove the backup files from OS using rm command and then issue a
delete expired backup;from RMAN prompt?
Or is there another recommended way?

If you remove them manually from the O/S, then you'll have to perform a CROSSCHECK BACKUP prior to the DELETE EXPIRED.
Or once you change your retention policy you could issue DELETE OBSOLETE, which may be the safer way to ensure you don't accidentally remove wrong backup files.

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.

I am not able to restore spfile from rman backup ;;;

Hi,
I would like to know few things
1. How are you setting the db_name ? you can set db_id at RMAN, how are you setting the db_name ?
2. Do you have any default init file at default location ? if yes, is the db_name parameter set correctly in that file ?
Since spfile is yet to be restored, you must set the db_name parameter correctly before you start spfile restore.This can be done with init file at default location which can even contain just one paremeter i.e db_name.

Undo tablespace recovery from RMAN backup

Hi,
Lets's assume we have RMAN backup and archivelog backups, and now
my undo tablespace's disk crashed ,how can i recover?
Can i recover while database is up?
Thanks,
Kumar.

to recover UNDO tablespace from RMAN backup you must shutdown the database and start it in the MOUNT state to recover the missing files as follows
rman target /
RUN
STARTUP MOUNT;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch3 TYPE Disk;
RESTORE datafile 'c:\u01\prod3\undo01.dbf';
RECOVER datafile 'c:\u01\prod3\undo01.dbf';
ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch3;
hope this will help you

Restore RMAN backup from tape

I have to restore the RMAN full backup from tape to new host to a previous date say March 1st. My target database RMAN retention period is 28 days, today is 11th May.
Is it possible to restore the obsolete database from tape backup to new host as of May 1st. If not possible, I would like to restore the available backup say as 15th April from tape to new host.
Can you please provide me the steps to restore the tape old backup to new host.
Thanks,

Spfile restore from RMAN Tape backup to different server

Hi All,
First of all let me thank you to the forum from which I keep updating my knowledge on oracle.
I am having issues when trying to restore spfile from controlfile autobackup to different server. Problem and other details are below:
Target version : 10.2.0.2
Netbackup : 6.5.6
Taken the tape backup through rman on server ABC and trying to restore the spfile from controlfile autobackup to server XYZ. Tape backup has been taken today morning and trying restore now.
Both servers ABC and XYX have been added (as clients) to netbackup policy.
Below is the syntax I used for restoring spfile and getting error as mentioned.
RMAN> run {
2> set controlfile autobackup format for device type 'SBT_TAPE' to '%F';
3> allocate channel ch00 device type 'sbt_tape'
4> parms='ENV=(NB_ORA_SERV=Mediaserver,NB_ORA_CLIENT=XYZ)';

Not sure where I am doing wrong. The same can be restored onto same host (I.E ABC) without any issues .
Request your help and guidance.
Thanks,
SSS

I don't know whether you can restore to a different server. The easier way should be
RMAN> restore spfile to pfile 'YOUR_PFILE_NAME' from autobackup;
then copy this to the new host.
Check this link
restore spfile to another host
Hope this helps

Regards, Anirban

After your RESTORE the (standby) controlfile, you must MOUNT the database instance with "ALTER DATABASE MOUNT".
You can also then query the controlfile with a "LIST BACKUP" or "LIST BACKUP SUMMARY" in RMAN to see if the deseired backups have been cataloged in the controlfile.
Don't specify the format for the ALLOCATE CHANNEL when you RESTORE DATABASE. In fact, you don't need to ALLOCATE CHANNEL at all when the device type is the default value of DISK if your are on 10gR2 or above.

How to estimate recovery time from rman backup

how to estimate recovery time from rman backup?
The database is of size 800GB.
the approximate time to backup is 8- 10 hours.

"Recovery time" is : RESTORE DATABASE time + RECOVER DATABASE time.
RESTORE can be done
a. in parallel with multiple channels if your backup was created as multiple backupsets
b. using incremental backups
c. whether the backups are on
i. disk
ii. tape
Alternatively, if you have a Recovery Area with an Incrementally Update backup of the database, you can SWITCH DATABASE almost immediately
RECOVER depends on
a. how many archivelogs (in terms of size, not necessarily number) need to be applied
-- this depends on
i. transaction volume
ii. the "freshness" of the backups (how recent the backups are)
b. whether required archivelogs are available on disk (which can be the case if the database backup itself is a very recent backup and archivelogs since then haven't been deleted {whether they have been backed up or not}) OR whether they need to be restored from
i. disk backup
ii. tape backup

Completeness of Prerequisites for Recovering Tables for PDBs from RMAN Backups

Could you verify the completeness of following prerequisities on pag. 441 of the "Backup and Recovery User's Guide 12c Release 1 (12.1) E17630-14"
Prerequisites for Recovering Tables and Table Partitions from RMAN Backups
■ The target database must be in read-write mode.
■ The target database must be in ARCHIVELOG mode.
■ You must have RMAN backups of the tables or table partitions as they existed at the point in time to which you want recover these objects.
■ To recover single table partitions, the COMPATIBLE initialization parameter for target database must be set to 11.1.0 or higher.
According to my test Database administrator workshop: How to recover a table in a pluggable database from a backup
those prerequisities are valid for CDBs or non-CBDs, but if you want to recover tables or table partitions in PDBs a different prerequisite is needed.
Indeed if you have a backup of only the pluggable database including the missing table (the third prerequisite above), but you don't have any backup of the container database the command...
recover table ... of pluggable database ... until scn ... auxiliary destination ...
will fail with the following errors:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 02/12/2014 12:22:18
RMAN-03015: error occurred in stored script Memory Script
RMAN-06026: some targets not found - aborting restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 3 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 4 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 1 found to restore
So to recover table in PDBs you must have also the RMAN backups of the CDB or in the opposite way it's not sufficient to have only the backups of the pluggable database, because during the creation of the auxiliary database the SYS, SYSAUX and the UNDO tablespace are required.

Hi,
Before dropping a DB we had taken an RMAN backup.I hope you were in mount mode.
Will RMAN automatically recognize the FORMAT of the backup piece and restore ?No it won't.
First you have to restore a controlfile in nomount mode with:
restore controlfile from '/u04/backup/rmanbkp /02mo9fnc_1_1';
and do alter database mount.
Than you have to run "catalog start with '/u04/backup/rmanbkp'; " so the instance now knows where to find the pieces.
Now you can run a restore database command.
Than open the database with resetlogs.

Tycho
