Create standby DB with RMAN backup in Oracle 9.2.0.6

I am tring to create a standby DB in different host with different directory using RMAN. The commandv with which I tried to create the standby database is the follow:
(in the primary server side)
RUN
ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL DUP1 TYPE DISK;
DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY
NOFILENAMECHECK
DORECOVER;
but RMAN give me this error:
Starting restore at 18-FEB-08
channel DUP1: starting datafile backupset restore
channel DUP1: restoring controlfile
output filename=/opferi/oradata/oradata01/data01/cntrl01.dbf

Additional information: 3
The standby database is in a different host with the same directory structure. I started (with nomount option) with the same init file that the primary database.
I read solution like the backupset must be copied manually to the standby host, but for me is not a solution.
The RMAN backup script is the follow (like
RUN {
CROSSCHECK BACKUPSET;
DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE;
DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED BACKUPSET;
crosscheck archivelog all;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch00 TYPE disk;
BACKUP
$BACKUP_TYPE
FORMAT '/rman/opferi2/df_sipd_%d_%u_%s_%p'
DATABASE INCLUDE CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup format '/rman/opferi2/archive_log_%d_t%t_s%s_p%p' (archivelog all);
RELEASE CHANNEL ch00;
when $BACKUP_TYPE=0
Can anyone help my with this problem?? Thaks
Cristian.
PS. Sorry my bad english because I am from Latin America

Requirements are:
1 the backup should be accessible to both target and auxiliary database in the same location.
2 On Unix this can be arranged through NFS, provided you set the read and write buffer to 32k.
Obviously the backup can not be located in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs, as you can not mount a NFS directory over $ORACLE_HOME/dbs without loosing functionality.

How to create new database with rman backup

hi,
i took a rman backup with nocatelog. can i make a new database with that rman backup.
if yes then how ? i m using oracle 9i.
thxs

'NEW' doesn't seem to be the right word here, but you can DUPLICATE (clone) an existing database or restore it to a new host:

Problem creating physical Standby database with RMAN

Hi All
I am trying to learn oracle dataguard and as part of the process learning creating standby database.
Platform : Sun-Fire-V250 Sparc, Solaris 10
Database Version - Oracle 11R2
I am creating standby database on same server, so directory structure is different.
Following the instructions on Oracle site I managed to create a functional physical standby database. But I am not able to create standby database using RMAN. These are the steps that I followed-
1.Set up all necessary parameters on primary database as done while creating physical standby database manually, eg setting force logging, creating standby logs etc.
2.Edited parameter file on primary database as done while creating manual pysical standby database creation. Some of the changes done are-
On Primary Database:
*.FAL_CLIENT='orcl11020' #Primary database unique name
*.FAL_SERVER='stdby_11' #Standby database unique name
db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020'
log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem'
standby_file_management=auto
*.log_archive_config='DG_CONFIG=(orcl11020,stdby_11)'
*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11020/archivelog
VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=orcl11020'
*.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=stdby_11 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1='ENABLE'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2='ENABLE'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT='%t_%s_%r.arc'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES=30
Copied same pfile for standby database and modified following-
*.control_files='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl','/<dir>/fra_stdby/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl'
*.db_name='orcl1102'
*.db_unique_name='stdby_11'
*.FAL_CLIENT='stdby_11'
*.FAL_SERVER='orcl11020'
db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11'
log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem'
standby_file_management=auto
*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/fra_stdby/STDBY_11/archivelog
VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
*.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=orcl11020 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE)
db_unique_name=orcl11020'
3. Add relevant information in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files and then restart listener.
3. Created password file with same credential as primary database.
4.Up-to-date RMAN backup of primary database available.
5.Create standby controlfile with rman
While primary database s open (I tried with primary database in mount mode as well)-
$>rman catalog rman/paswd@rman target /
RMAN> BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY;
6. Open a new terminal and startup standby database in nomount mode using parameter file created -
$>ORACLE_SID=stdby_11
$>export ORACLE_SID
$>sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL>STARTUP NOMOUNT pfile='<location/initfilename.ora'
SQL>quit
$> rman AUXILIARY / target sys/passwd@orcl11020 catalog rman/passwd@rman
RMAN>DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY DORECOVER;
RMAN finishes without error but archive logs are not being tranported. Looking at the log, following caught my eye-
Error 1017 received logging on to the standby
Check that the primary and standby are using a password file
and remote_login_passwordfile is set to SHARED or EXCLUSIVE,
and that the SYS password is same in the password files.
returning error ORA-16191
FAL[client, ARC2]: Error 16191 connecting to orcl11020 for fetching gap sequence
Errors in file /<>dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
Errors in file /<dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
So on both primary and standby I confirmed
SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile
NAME TYPE VALUE
remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
To make double sure that password files are same, I shutdown both databases, delete password files and recreated with same credentials.
Password files are called - orapworcl11020 and orapwstdby_11
Can someone guide me where thisngs are going wrong here please.

Not sure if I understood it clearly.
SELECT * FROM V$ARCHIVE_GAP;
returns no rows so there is no gap.
But could you please explain me the result of the previous query. To catch up again, on standby when I check
SELECT SEQUENCE#,APPLIED FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG
SEQUENCE# APPLIED
75 NO
74 NO
76 NO
77 NO
I understand that though archive files have been copied across but they are not applied yet.
On primary when I give your query -
SELECT name as STANDBY,SEQUENCE#,applied, completion_time
2 FROM v$archived_log
3 where dest_id=2
4 and sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80;
I get -
STANDBY SEQUENCE# APPLIED COMPLETIO
stdby_11 74 YES 28-JUN-11
stdby_11 75 YES 28-JUN-11
stdby_11 76 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 77 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 78 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 79 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 80 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 75 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 74 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 76 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 77 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 78 NO 07-JUL-11
I have intentionally given
sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80
because I know in the current incarnaion of the database, max sequence is 78.
So my understanding is, the rows between 28-29 June are from previous incarnation, correct me if I am wrong
Archive files of the current incarnation, since I successfully created standby database are shipped but yet to be applied - am I right?
Then my final question is, when will these archives be applied to standby database?
I am sorry to ask too many questions but I am just trying to understand how it all works.
Thanks for your help again

Creating standby database using RMAN

When I'm creating standby database with RMAN command
'duplicate for standby' backups for creating standby database
have to be accessible from host where standby database
is created. I can copy the backups to standby host, or use
NFS to share the disk with backups to standby host.
But when I have backups in ASM diskgroup how can
I achieve it would be accessible from standby host?
Thanks a lot for advice,
M.

OK, thanks,
I will create standby using Grid, but I have the following problem:
database instance is running on the host where I want
to create standby database. The running instance is for
testing purposes and has the same db_name, db_unique_name, db_domain
parameters as in primary database.
I will change db_unique_name to be distinct from primary database one,
should I also change instance SID not to be the same in
testing database and standby on the same host, or when creating standby
database I can specify distinct one for standby database?

Logical Standby recover with RMAN

Hi All,
I have a test environment with Primary DB Server, Physical Standby and Logical Standby.
The Logical Standby DB (cur_log_stdb) is backed up every evening by RMAN and I have a question:
If I recover my Logical Standby DB from backup and switch replication to new Logical Standby DB (new_log_stdb) it will work or not?
My steps e.g.:
1. Make a new server for my new_log_stdb and repair structure of catalogs;
2. Repair listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files from cur_log_stdb to new_log_stdb;
3. Restore DB with RMAN from backup to new_log_stdb;
4. On cur_log_stdb execute "alter database stop logical standby apply";
5. Change a DNS name from cur_log_stdb to new_log_stdb;
6. On new_log_stdb execute "alter database start logical standby apply immediate";
I'm not sure that archivelogs will apply to the new_log_stdb for period since rman backup was created.
But if this plan won't work how can I restore Logical Standby DB from RMAN backup and resume replication from Primary?
Configuration:
Oracle Linux 6.4
Oracle Database 11.2.0.3
Primary and Physical with Data Guard

Hello;
The only way to know for sure is to test it. You are asking somebody you don't know to confirm a recovery test for you. You have to perform the test yourself to be certain.
If your plan does not work you can always rebuild the Standby.

RMAN / backup. oracle 9 vs. oracle 10

My colleague mentioned a while ago that we had to investigate RMAN &/or a backup client, "because in oracle 10, when doing an export of a live db, oracle does not switch into "single user mode" like it did in 9. So we couldn't have 100% faith in our .dmp file."
I'd like to do some further research on this, but looking through the "Oracle 10 Complete reference" and googling - I don't see any information about it. Has anyone here dealt with this or know of a link I should see?
Finally... Does anyone know if an RMAN backup for Oracle 10 accounts for any "in progres" transactions?
Thanks in advance,
Mike.

Oracle, itself, doesn't switch to single user mode.
Your colleague might have been talking of scripts which shutdown and restart the
database in restricted mode to run an export of the database.
RMAN backups as in 8.0/8i/9i/10g (or EBU in Oracle 7) and scripted (aka
"user managed") backups are all physical backups. They take database blocks
"as they are". Conceptually, the datafile backups aren't aware of active transactions.
It is the redo stream in the archivelogs that is required for you to be able to restore
and recreate a consistent database image.

Creating Standby database with Oracle 10gR2 SE (no dataguard). Procedure

Hello,
I have problems in creating a standby database without Dataguard (Oracle Standard Edition)
-Oracle 10gR2 SE (No DataGuard !!!!)
- SUSE Enterprise 10.
Both primary and standby databases are running in Virtual machines (lab).
I will describe the exact steps I followed :
1.---------------------------------------------------
Both primary and standby databases have exactly the same file / folder structure
2.---------------------------------------------------
I enabled archive log mode with a new destination : /opt/oracle/oradata/orcl/archive_logs.
Also : SQL> alter database force logging;
3.---------------------------------------------------
I shut down the primary database (shutdown immediate)
4.---------------------------------------------------
I created a standby controlfile on the primary database:
SQL> startup mount
SQL> alter database create standby controlfile as '/tmp/standby.ctl'
SQL> shutdown immediate
5.---------------------------------------------------
I did a cold backup from the primary db to the standby db
(I copied all the db files, control files, redo log)
6.---------------------------------------------------
I copied from the primary db to the standby db the standby control file
(from primary /tmp/standby.ctl)
7.---------------------------------------------------
I copied from the primary db to the standby db the standby control file
(from primary /tmp/standby.ctl)
8.---------------------------------------------------
I created on the standby database a pfile from the spfile :
SQL> create pfile from spfile;
9.---------------------------------------------------
I edited the pfile and changed the controlfile location (with the standby controlfile created in step 4)
>>>>> *.control_files='/opt/oracle/oradata/orcl/standby.ctl'
10.--------------------------------------------------
I started the standby db
SQL> startup mount pfile='/opt/oracle/product/10.2/db_1/dbs/initorcl.ora'
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
SQL> quit
11.--------------------------------------------------
I made some changes on the primary db on user scott
SQL> update table set .......
12.--------------------------------------------------
I switched logfile on the primary db
SQL> alter system switch logfile;
13.--------------------------------------------------
I manually copied the new archivelog to the standby db
And then nothing !!!
The db changes are not applied.
Please help me fix the procedure !!!
Thanks

Hi
Ref to your Oracle SE Standby issue, we were in similar situation couple of years ago to build an Automated Standby for our disaster recovery on Oracle SE. We finally got a solution provider Anbul Technologies , they have a one of their solutions based on Oracle SE which provided fully automated Standby in Oracle SE.
We are successfully running that solution in our prod env for many years. You can visit their site www.anbultechnologies.co.uk or contact them for further details. They are Uk based but provides support and services all over Europe.

Standby database from RMAN backup

I have been assigned to create a standby database from our RMAN backups in a different machine, as this is my first attempt at recovering, I am struggling a bit. I would appreciate if someone can throw any light on what dumb mistakeI am doing here. I ahve absolutely no control over the back up script which is done by my vendor, but can do anything in the reocvery portion. I did try going through the documentaiton and other help available for the last 2 days.
Database : Oracle 10G R2
OS : Windows Server 2003
My backup script is
configure channel device type disk format 'J:\RMAN\RMAN_df_%U' maxpiecesize 2048M;
SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
backup database;
SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
SQL "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
backup current controlfile for standby FORMAT='J:\RMAN\RMAN_sc_%U';
For recovery of a standby database,
I have copied the the back up pieces and the archive logs to the standby server where I have just created an instance with the same name as production db.

I don't see ArchiveLog backups being done by the vendor's script. How do you backup the ArchiveLogs ?
In your post you state that you have copied the ArchiveLogs. Are they copied to the same log_archive_dest location ? RMAN needs to be "aware" of them. You can use the "CATALOG" command in RMAN to register them into the controlfile.

Edited by: user9198889 on Jul 6, 2011 8:29 AMHave you restored from the recent backup?
validate the backup compeltion_time and then retry the operation, Are you restoring from tapes?yes its recent backup(last and only backup infact ) , the backup took couple of days to run..
the backup was executing using this command BACKUP INCREMENTAL LEVEL 1 AS COMPRESSED BACKUPSET DATABASE TAG 'LEV1_BCKP_2011-06-27_11_54' PLUS ARCHIVELOG DELETE INPUT
there was no full backup so oracle must have taken full one and not incremental correct?
first logseq that was back's up is : 35818
primary uses local disk for its db and backup
standby that i am trying to create is on asm. i have copied backup to FRA and restored to +data its recovery that is failing now

How to create standby controlfile from restored backup

Hi Techies,
I am re-building one of my DR server, Source and target DB is oracle 10g.
I have taken the source backup which is going to be restored on target, But I forgot to take a standby controlfile from source DB at the time (Pre/Post) backup.
Now the issue is I can create a standby controlfile on primary and copy the same to target, But so many datafiles are added after the backup which I have taken to restore and medias are already shipped.
I can send the other set of backup to DR site, but it takes a week time and I don't want to do that If I can regenerate it.
So any clue to create standby controlfile on target with restored datafiles?
Regards,
Nick Loy

Hmm... sounds like you perform this in a rather manual fashion...
Do you use RMAN for taking the backups?
Or maybe the BR*TOOLS?
With these tools you are usually safe from such mistakes - I can only recommend to use them!
However, since you don't have a control file at all on the target side, the only thing left to do would be to
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE NORESETLOGS;
on the primary side and manually remove the files that have been added since you took the backup from the control file script,
Afterwards you use the script on the standby side to create the control files.

You can create a clone database using DUPLICATE DATABASE command as it's shown in the following video tutorial:

failover to previous backup
Can you please confirm if the directory E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\AIRPRIM is existing on standby box and rman can write to that location (free space & permissions)
If the issue is still present provide us the control_files parameter from standby..
