Copy RMAN backups from RAC ASM

Hi, I have 2-node (RHEL 5.8) RAC database with ASM shared storage. RMAN is doing daily backups on this ASM storage too. How could I copy backups from ASM to another place ? I'm using version 10gR2 db, and there is no "cp" command in asmcmd.

How could I copy backups from ASM to another place ? I'm using version 10gR2 db, and there is no "cp" command in asmcmd.You can use RMAN to accomplish it.
Use command
RMAN> backup backupset from ... format '<new_location>' ;Example here:

How to restore (not duplicate) DB from RAC ASM to non ASM

Hello everybody,
i am trying to recover db from RAC+ASM to non ASM no RAC node. I am running Oracle 10g (10.2.0.4) on Win2003 Server. I have functional backup from my prod system.
Here are my steps:
*1. On prod server i make backup running this script in RMAN*
configure channel device type 'SBT_TAPE' parms'SBT_LIBRARY=oracle.disksbt,ENV=(BACKUP_DIR=e:\backup)';
RUN {
backup device type SBT_TAPE database tag zal20081129;
SQL 'alter system archive log current';
backup device type SBT_TAPE archivelog ALL tag zal20081129;
*2. I prepared clon instance on another server (The same Oracle version) and start it to nomount mode.*
*3. I copied the backup from prod server to clon server to exactly the same path. (e:\backup)*
*4. I connect to RMAN on my new node and I use the DBID parameter and I restore controlfile.*
rman
connect target /
set DBID 3079749916
startup nomount
run {
allocate CHANNEL CTAPE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS'SBT_LIBRARY=oracle.disksbt,ENV=(BACKUP_DIR=f:\backup)';
allocate channel CDISK DEVICE TYPE DISK;
restore controlfile from 'f:\backup\78k91lrn_1_1';
alter database mount;
*5.Then I check the backup, crosscheck etc.*

So obviouslly database wants to open online logs in the path like ASM. Which is wrong. What should I do to tell database to open it according to init.ora parameters
*.db_create_file_dest='e:\oradata\agost'
*.db_create_online_log_dest_1='e:\oradata\agost'
Any suggestions???
Thanks

Hi,
thanks for you quick answer. But I do restore to the local file system, even if the log says:
restoring datafile 00001 to +DATA/agost/datafile/system.272.668509367
restoring datafile 00002 to +DATA/agost/datafile/undotbs1.273.668509387 .....
all the datafiles are correctly restored. I think oracle uses the parameter db_create_file_dest and creates the files there.
I tried also the script with SET NEW NAME:
run {
Set newname for datafile 1 to 'e:\oradata\AGOST\system.272.668509367';
Set newname for datafile 2 to 'e:\oradata\AGOST\undotbs1.273.668509387';

dont know what to do.
There must be way how to recover it. I think my first try (without SET NEWNAME) is closer to the end, there is only need to "repair" the online logs.
Any other suggestions?
thanks

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.

Taking rman backup from a different server

HI Al,
Is it possible for us run the rman backup from a different server other than the server on which database exist .
For Ex :
Our database is on server X
But , I want to schedulde the archive backup from the server Y .
How can we do this and is it possible ...

Yes, as long the RMAN executable is compatible to the target database, on metalink:

Can I copy old backups from an external HD to a new one? Thanks for your help.

I'm using time machine on an external hard disc (1 TB) for more than a year now. Now the eHD is nearly full and I would like to change to a bigger one. Is it possible to copy the backups from the old one to the new one? Thanks a lot for your help.

Hello Joe Gramm. Thank you for the link. This is what I was trying to do 2 days ago. I think the problem is, that the old eHD doesn't have the "Ignore ownership on this volume" button, while the new one has it. Therefore I tried to change the rights of access on everything (see above)... Trying to copy now brings me the following message: "Das Backup kann nicht kopiert werden, da beim Backup-Volume kein Eigentümer aktiviert ist." translatet something like: the backup could not be copied, because there is no owner activated on the backup-volume. Do you have any ideas how to change that or how to proceed? Many thanks for any input!

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;

Restoring RMAN Backup from ASM RAC env to Non ASM standalone environment

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me how to restore database using RMAN in a Non ASM environment as my backup file with ASM RAC environment.
i was also looking for some documentation which provides clear explanation about RMAN backup and Restore in ASM and Non ASM environment.
Thanks

You can set the parameter db_file_name_convert in init.ora in you new database with [ID 47325.1]
or
you can set parameter "set newname" in your script rman. [ID 549972.1]
if you have one or two destinations of dbfiles in ASM I seggest to you set parameter db_file_name_convert in init.
example:
db_file_name_convert=('+DGDATA','/u01/oradata/');
remenber you need set log_file_name_convert to.
log_file_name_convert=('+DGREDO','/u01/redo/');
if you use "set newname" commands you need set this lines in your script rman.
set newname for datafile 1 to '/u01/oradata/system01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 2 to '/u01/oradata/undotbs01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 3 to '/u01/oradata/sysaux01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 4 to '/u01/oradata/users01.dbf';
and every datafiles you need set!

RMAN duplicate from RAC with ASM to RAC with ASM

I'm still reading and trying to figure out how to duplicate...and I'm finding that there are some extra considerations you have to work with with doing a RAC system.
Does anyone have any good links to articles/docs that spell out what to do in this scenario?
I'm wanting to duplicate from tape backups, using NO connectivity to the source/target....
My tape backups do include the spfile and control files (autobackup) from the source.
Thank you in advance,
cayenne

damorgan wrote:
Possibly you are confusing a database with a database.
A RAC database is a just a database. What is different is the instances, the clusterware, and the storage: For example ASM.
A backup is a backup is a backup.
Can you be more specific about what you are trying to do, on what hardware, operating system, version, and edition.
RMAN can not create an instance either RAC or stand-alone.Thank you for the reply.
I have my source system, OS = RHEL5, running Oracle 11Gr2...5 node RAC cluster.
I'm doing RMAN backups to tape...hourly arch. logs, Daily incremental lvl=1 backups and weekly incremental lvl=0
None of the tape backups have ever been tested for restoring...and I've never restored a database myself before, total noob here.
I have a test area I've set up. I have a 2 node RAC cluster, running 11Gr2 and OS=RHEL5.
The tape is accessible from both systems.
I am wanting to test the tape backups...and thought the RMAN DUPLICATE process would be the way to go.
I am wanting to NOT connect to the source database...trying to simulate somewhat of a disaster recovery scenario. I'm only wanting to use tape backup, and the test area for the auxiliary instance.
So far what I've seen I need to learn to do is something like:
1. Create a password file for new aux database to be duplicated to
2. Establish Net connectivity...
3. Create initial parameter file for aux instance
Due to a bug in note:334899.1, add this (because of RAC system)
norecovery_through_resetlogs=TRUE
4. Start aux instance NOMOUNT
Everything I'm reading though...is basically doing this from single instance to single instance...and what little info I've seen on doing it from RAC, indicates there are some differences. The "_no_recovery_through_resetlogs=TRUE" is one thing I found...but wondering what else.
Also, so many of the examples I'm finding...are doing the duplication connecting to the target/source...and also doing backups to disk rather than tape...
Right now, I'm at #1...trying to figure what to put into an init pfile...I'm seeing DB_name, which will be the same as the one I'm cloning from.
I'm not sure what else....
I'm wondering if this is necessary..since on the tape backups from the source...I backup the SPFILE...can that not be used somehow in this?
I'm seeing for the init file, examples show that I need to put in entries for control files and redo logs....if the source system was down and gone...how would I know where these were on the old system? This isn't documented anywhere....is there a way to do this if you didn't know.
If not..guess I need to go through all systems and document the layouts of where everything is located.
Also...most examples I'm finding, in addition to being single instance backup and restore/duplication...they are all using regular file systems....not much to go on with using ASM.
Anyway, I'm trying to learn here...and am having trouble finding examples to go from that match my setup.
Thank you in advance,
cayenne

How to copy archivelog-files from a ASM instance to another ASM instance

Hello ,
our RAC database has to be moved to another Datacenter. The database has a size of several Terrabyte. Will will create a standby database (on a cluster) on the new datacenter (using RMAN backup). Since the RMAN backup takes rather long we would like to copy the archive logs to the new datacenter. Since the archivelog-files are stored on a dirskgroup of an asm instance we have the following question:
- how can the archivelog files get copied from the current location to the new location?

VivaLaVida wrote:
Many thanks for your answer...
As a matter of fact the archivelogs are not backuped on a filesystem. If so we would copy them from the source to the destination host (that's easy).
The question is "how to get them copied from one ASM diskgroup to another ASM diskgroup". RMAN might be a good solution - but we would need to
figure that out...
We talking about 100 GB of archivelogs a day - therefore we don't want to wait until the standby database is configured and online. To have the archivelogs
already on the new host in the new datacenter would save alot of time.What is ASM version?
The copy is peer to peer? (i.e Can you copy files from one ASM to another directly?)

How do we clone a database from RAC/ASM to RAC/ASM?

Is there a best practice or recommended recipe for cloning from a RAC/ASM instance to another RAC/ASM instance? We've done single instance cloning in the past with RMAN and it looks like grid control does something similar -- until we try to clone from one Exadata cluster to another. Surely this is now a common procedure...?
much thanks,
Gary

Hi,
I would not use cloning with 11.2. anymore.
Though this will work (you have to take care of copying some more stuff though, like the gpnp profile), simply using the "addnode.sh" which works in silent mode in 11.2. is a lot easier.
Re: Any issues to add 3rd node to 11gr2 grid with 11.2.0.2 and 10.2.0.4 homes?

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,

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.
