RMAN backup on RAC

Hi,
DB=10.2.0.4 OS=RHL (RAC with 2 nodes db01,db02). Following are the types of automated RMAN backups taken on db01.
- OCR
- Voting Disk
- Talespaces Snapshot
- Archivelog (every hour)
- Backup Incremental level 0 (SUNDAY)
-- backup incrementa level 1 (Mon-SAT)
- Autobackup of Control file and SPFILE (CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON)
Two main questions please. First, are these backups/backup types are enough FOR FULL RESTORE when talking about RMAN backup on RAC environment with 2 nodes? If not please suggest what else I need to backup?
Secondly, backup home location is /rman which I can see on db01 ONLY. This /rman directory I cannot see on db02. My question is that In case of db02 failure can I restore from this /rman directory? or do I need to automate backup schedules also on db02 separately?

Hi,
THanks alot for your feedback. Makes my life easier :) . But actually I started studying this all subject because of the following error message in the log file. I found out about this error that doesn't seem to harm. Just wait for the job to finish or it will sort out automatically. Here are the lines from the log file.

"You need to move the snapshot control file to a shared location if you plan to run backups from more than one node. If you do not move the snapshot control file to a shared file system such as OCFS or an ASM disk group, then you must make sure that the local destination is identical on all nodes."
My question is of course, how to sort out the above log file error. Becuse in our case, backups are run only from one node, and snaphost control file is not being moved to ASM disk groups. Local destination is also same on both the Nodes, isn't it (with different names). Why on Node 2 last snapshot was taken on 10th jan while on Node 1 it is todays date which seems fine.
Control file and SPFILE which I noticed are stored on ASM disk groups also, so being shared between the two Nodes.
(Sanme names/same location for control file and SPFILE on Node 1 and Node 2)

How to backup oracle RAC filesystem

Hello,
May anyone in this community might help to answer on my inquiry on how to backup oracle RAC filesystem. There are many backup features available out there i.e: RMAN, hotbackup etc but the way the backup is working is RMAN will backup and stored the db file in the filesystem. I presume the filesystem also need to be backed up in order to avoid the filesystem corrupted etc
Regards

Hi,
Always welcome ..
when you want to take backup of all the database components of RAC, that's why i advised you to include the all commands in your backup strategy, so that in any case your any components doesn't work , you can restore the particular one .
One thing you can do , you are running your RAC environment on Vsphere , in that case , create a backup plan with the client and your IT team to take backup of whole environment by creating snapshot of Vsphere along with backup plan mentioned by me in above reply , so in worst scenario your whole environment can be restored .
I have seen that if RAC environment is running on VMware , then its best to take snapshot of whole machine which should be defined in backup policy apart from normal backup of database.
Thanks

How to RMAN backup in RAC with OCFS

hi,
Iam using RAC 10.2.0 in windows 2003 server with OCFS .. i want to take backup using RMAN utility. can any sugest me how take RMAN backup..
Thanks
harish

The only real consideration in RMAN on RAC is a one-off configuration issue as to whether the snapshot controlfile is written to the shared disk or not (it needs to be on the shared disk, or on a location that is common to all nodes, otherwise a backup that includes the control file will fail at the point a node tries to write it to a destination directory that only made sense to another node).
Otherwise, there's not a lot that's different about an RMAN backup in RAC versus non-RAC.
Simple answer, as a result: open a DOS window, type rman target /, then type backup database;

/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin/rman target sys/viviet@vvsms log /home/oracle/log_rman/vvsms.log appendThis line can be your problem.
As this database is a RAC and your are using a service with load balance "vvsms" and "/home/oracle/backup/vvsms" is not a shared location. RMAN is starting a session on Other node where "/home/oracle/backup/vvsms" does not exists.
Try change it :
/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin/rman target sys/viviet@vvsms log /home/oracle/log_rman/vvsms.log appendTo this (using Easy Connect Method):
/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin/rman target sys/viviet@localhost:1521/VVSMS log /home/oracle/log_rman/vvsms.log appendWhere:
localhost: your local node
VVSMS : is the service of database
Also check if "/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/network/admin/sqlnet.ora" have configured the line "NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)"
P.S : When RMAN start a session it show where is logged, check on logs what instance RMAN was logged.

RMAN Backup in RAC

Dear DBAs,
Is there a V$VIEW that maintains information about the node that was used for taking RMAN backup.
I have a 3 node RAC database, and would like to know which node db backup was run from? These are OEM scheduled backup jobs.
Thanks

Hi;
1. There is seeded RMAN forum site:

RMAN backup in RAC failing with error ORA-19566

Hi all, i have 2 node RAC and i am trying to take rman backup of the database which is in ASM filesystem.
There is a corruption in SYSAUX file and rman is failing to take backup of the sysaux datafile and error thrown at the end like

and found all the blocks in the table WRH$_SQL_PLAN.
Then dropped the table, and tried to take backup of the database and it is failing again with the same error..
ANY SOLUTION TO TAKE BACKUP OF THE DATABASE.
anyhow we can SET MAXCORRUPT FOR DATAFILE 3 to value, but does this works all time...
Thanks in advance,

Cold backup in RAC envornment.

Hi,
Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) With rac
OS : HP-UX 11i
I want to know in RAC enviornment which files including (datafiles,controlfiles,logfiles,spfile,password file,listner.ora,tnsnames.ora,sqlnet.ora) should be included in cold backup.
Are there any cluster files that should be included in backup?
Thanks.

Actually, I deliberately chose to concentrate on the first and main part of the original question. You obviously think the line about 'Are there any cluster files that should be included' is worth concentrating on. Both approaches are valid, I think, but your choice doesn't mean I "forgot" anything.
If, for example, I was to point out the voting disk on Windows is backed up with ocopy instead of dd, does that mean you "forgot" that fact? If I mention that there are five retained autobackups of the OCR, does the fact that you didn't mention that number mean you "forgot" it? Does the fact that I have just neglected to mention that the five retained backups are from 4, 8 and 12 hours ago plus 1 day and 1 week ago mean that I forgot those details?
No: we all choose to structure and filter our comments as we see fit. One can add to and enhance someone else's comments without presuming to know the mind and intent of their author and passing judgement accordingly.
For the record, I chose not to mention voting disks and OCR backups because the voting disk never needs backing up, but can be simply re-created and the OCR as you mention is automatically backed up frequently and a simple OS backup, suitably configured, can make sure those autobackup files are transferred somewhere safe (i.e., onto tape) without me having to schedule additional backups using ocrconfig.
I accept your preferences will be different, but those happen to be mine.

Retore a backup from RAC to Standard Edition

Hi,
We have a production environment with a 2 nodes RAC 11g.
This environment is secured with a RMAN backup startegy.
Could we restore the backup to a single node Oracle Standard Edition 11g database?
Best regards,
Sébastien

So I would be careful, this metalink has a list of differences between EE and SE:
Differences Between Enterprise, Standard and Personal Editions on Oracle 11.1
Doc ID: NOTE:465460.1
If you use EE options and features, you cannot have these in the restored SE instance.

Rman backup for rac by oem

Br,Hi,
DB : 10.2 and 11.2
How to schedule rman backup for cluster in OEM?How to schedule without OEM?
If one of the node failed,Is it possible to run in another node automatcially?
How to schduel export/datadump in rac by oem?
Br,
Raj

I Am not using oem, without oem you should write several scripts....
for linux hot backup(archive log enabled):
bck.sh
set ORACLE_SID=mydb
set ORACLE_HOME=....
rman target sys/.... @'.../bck.ora'
bck.ora
run
BACKUP AS COMPRESSED BACKUPSET FORMAT "..../db_%d_%T_%s_%p_%U.bak" INCREMENTAL LEVEL 0 DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG DELETE INPUT FORMAT "...../archivelogBackup/arch_%d_%T_%s_%p_%U.bak";
delete force noprompt obsolete redundancy 3;
backup FORMAT '..../ctl_%d_%T_%s_%p_%U' current controlfile spfile;
And create executable job which instance_id=1 and will run your bck.sh script and create schedule for this job, when first node will down you must change instance_id attribute to second one, and be sure that all backup paths exists in all nodes.

Restore Oracle DB Backup on RAC with ASM on Standalone server

Dear Experts,
We have our Production Enviornment on Linux as OS and Oracle DB on RAC and ASM. We are taking the backup through DB13 of Production system.
We want to rectify whether the above backup is restorable or not. For this, we want to restore the backup on Single Standalone system without RAC and ASM.
My questions is 1) Is it possible to restore database from RAC and ASM to normal Standalone server ?
2) If possible, can anyone let me know the challenges we could face during the same procedure.
Looking forward for suggestions.
Regards,
KK

Hi Ketul,
I suppose restoration can be done to standalone system using brtools.
Refer steps in
SAP note 1627541 - BR*Tools support for Oracle ASM and Exadata/ODA

Hope this helps.

Restore single instance rman backup to rac database

Hello all. I have a 10gR2 single instance database that I have been taking backups using the oracle's suggested backup strategy, that is, once full database backup and incremental backups here and there. That's is all fine as I have (many times) being requested to rollback the database resulting in all operations being sucessfull.
However, since this is somehow a pre-certification database, I am now being tasked to restore this database to what is going to be our production database, which is a 10gR2 rac database. I have already set up the RAC database sucessfull.
Now, my question is: How can I take one of the backups that I have on the single-instance database and restore onto my RAC database ?
Some information about the infraestructure:
Both operating systems are HP-UX. Single instance is 11.23, RAC database is 11.31.
Both database are using ASM as datafiles storage and flash recovery area storage.
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks!

In general terms, there are several ways you can convert a single instance into a rac intance, and it involves much more activities than just adding redo threads.
Use of DBCA
Enterprise Manager Grid Control
rconfig utility
Considering your case, if you don't currently have Grid Control, the first option is rconfig.
1. Migrate your database from the current environment to the target environment by a regular cloning procedure, this will create a single instance into your rac environment. Your regular rdbms rac installation allows you to manage both, single instance and rac instances. Use this procedure to clone your database to the target RAC environment using recovery manager --> http://madrid9999.googlepages.com/rmancloneadatabase
2. Once you have started your database in the RAC environment proceed with the rconfig tool, this requires some files to perform the conversion, the ConvertToRAC.xml file which is located at $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/rconfig/sampleXMLs
3. Once you copied/edited the ConvertToRAC.xml file, you have to run the rconfig. Save the ConvertToRAC.xml under a different file name.
rconfig editedConvertToRAC.xml
4. For further reference on the rconfig command, you may refer to this page Oracle® Real Application Clusters Installation Guide

Restore DB13 Oracle backup of RAC+ASM to Standalone server with ASM only

Dear Experts,
My SAP ECC System is on Oracle 11g with RAC on ASM. I am taking the backup using DB13 with init<SID>.sap profile as attached.
I want to restore this backup on single node System with only ASM(no RAC). (ASM File system structure remains the same)
As per my finding and as per Note 1627541 - BR*Tools support for Oracle ASM and Exadata/ODA, it says use only BRRECOVER to restore the database.
Can anyone please assist me, in restoring the database. As in step by step commands or points to follow the restore.
Thanks,
KK

Hi Yayati,
Please refer to SAP guidelines on the configuration for using brtools on Oracle RAC + ASM
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/0063fdad-49f6-2e10-22bc-
c8c4c7f9e055?QuickLink=ora&ov…
Additional configuration information can be checked under SAP note
Note 1598594 - BR*Tools configuration for Oracle inst. under "oracle" user
you need to adapt your init<SID>.sap file according to the recommendations suggested.
Post this you may use brtools to backup and perform restoration as well.
Hope this helps.
