Deleting old incarnation through RMAN
Hi All,
Could you please let me know how to delete old incranation and the backups related to that incarnation from RMAN for a particular database in Oracle 9i.
Regards
Harpreet Singh
Hi,
Thanks all for your help. I have achieved what I was looking for. I have deleted all the backups from the recovery catalog, according to you retention policy and also removed the unwanted incarnations from the recovery catalog. This is what I did:-
crosscheck backup of database completed before 'sysdate - 35';
crosscheck backup of archivelog all completed before 'sysdate -35';
report obsolete recovery window of 35 days device type 'sbt';
delete force noprompt obsolete recovery window of 35 days device type 'sbt';
delete backup of database completed before 'sysdate-35';
delete backup of archivelog all completed before 'sysdate-35';
And then to remove the incarnations from the RMAN by logging in the RMAN database with the onwer of the recovery catalog:-
RMAN> Delete from dbinc where dbinc_key=< dbinc_key>;
MAY BE THIS CAN HELP SOMEONE IN THE FUTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Regards

How to delete old backups in RMAN (
Hello,
if I run below rman command lines in 10g and 11g RMAN, it works well, but NOT in RMAN (Release 8.1.7.4.0), so which commandlines I should use to get to the same pursposes in RMAN 8.1.7.4?

Rman delete old file and recover
Hi Friends,
after full backup.
we use below syntax to delete old file.
delete noprompt archivelog until time '(SYSDATE - 10)';
However, we get a message that file is used and delete failure. ramn stop process.
my question:
does the old archivelog file is deleted ot not?
If the old archivelog file is delete, do we have any command like sql rollback to recover it?
any other commane to recover mis comman in ramn.
or we must recover it?
Thanks,

jithere is no any command sort of rolback to recover archivelog,if you have backup of archivelog then you can restore
archivelog from this archivelog backupset.

How do I create a new user, move my old files etc over, and delete old user
This is why I think I need to.
My computer got hit by lightening, and I may have created a new user account through netinfo rather than system preferences /accounts/+user. Mail used to open twice, but no longer. Now, Safari askes me for my keychain password twice, Spotlight can't find a folder on the computer when the search is restricted to folder and computer, though the folder is there and easyfind finds it, and when System Preferences/Spotlight/Privacy has the hard drive icon added, then deleted, Spotlight still does not find anything. (Yes, everything is backed up, on CD, DVD, and online.) Microsoft Tec Support says
"Here is a summary of the key points of the case for your records.
When you contacted us on August 8, you had requested assistance with Microsoft Office 2004, as your installation of the updates was unable to find the correct version of the software to update. After creating a New MAC User, we identified the issue to be with a corrupt MAC User account, and not a Microsoft issue. "
I believe Microsoft. So, creating a new user was easy.
But copying files uses up too much hard drive (movies, music), and may miss keychains, preferences, mail, address book, and documents. Since Spotlight no longer works, who knows what is happening. (Yes, I've repaired persmissions, and disk repair. No change). I'm using up my hard drive trying to move files to the new user. If I share files, or put them into a public folder, then delete the old user, will I still have the old user's files in the new user's account? It is not clear to me what I should be trying to do in order to create a new user, move my old files etc over, and delete old user. Thanks.
My responses will be slow, because I have to drive to town to use the internet. I've ordered a new airport which may take care of that problem. SO be patient.Hey -
I need to do the EXACT same thing, but have no idea how. Has anyone out there done this?
My situation is a tad different..this is a new Mac (and I'm a brand new Mac user). Tons of querks occur under my original account (videos won't run, Safari won't support certain plug-ins). I spent 6 hours on the phone w/ 4 different Apple Reps and nobody could fix it. A rep finally looked at my MacBook Pro in person today. He created a new account just to see if that would work and under that new account, everything works perfectly fine (no querks, can view video). He tried switching a million settings in my original account to no avail.
He said to create a new account (as he did) and move my files over to the new account and then go back to the original and delete it. How do you do this?! I can't figure it out! I've got a new account created, but of course it just has the default folders in it w/ the little red icons next to them! Thanks in advance! -

"COMPATIBLE" should be the same.

10g Physical Standby to be used for Backup through RMAN
Dear All,
I have 10g Database Primary and Standby Server which is operating in Maximum Performance Mode. I want to use Standby Database for performing Weekly Full and Daily Incremental Backups through RMAN. Kindly inform me is it possible, if yes how should I configure it. I will also be using Compression and Encryption while performing backups.
Best Regards,
AsifYes, that is possible.
Because the standby databases are in mount mode, they can be accessed through the SYS account .
I use the following RMAN script for the same purpose. Please note that we have configure the flashback area, so we are not letting RMAN delete the archive files:
run {
sql 'alter system archive log current';
sql 'alter system archive log current';
allocate channel ch1 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.opt)';
backup
incremental level 0
tag full_bk_db_webshop
format 'df_%d_t%t_s%s_p%p'
(database include current controlfile);
backup archivelog all;
This script is for a FULL backup ( level 0 ). You could also use the "backup full" command
You can easily change the level of the Backup for incremental purposes.
Starting RMAN - if configured correctly - is the same as with an open database
export ORACLE_SID=<STDBYSID>
rman target / rcvcat <rman/rman>@<catalogsid>
the user for, and the catalogsid are merely examples

Need help in deleting old searches
How can I delete old Google searches from my I Pad? Going to Settings, to Safari, clearing history,eyc. Does not work.
I've already solved my problem through Ovi Support, a million thanks to you Ovi, in order to delete the mailbox all you have to do is, Open Menu / Messaging / Options / Settings / E-mail / Mailboxes and then long press on mailbox opens the selection to delete it. Same thing applies for the installed themes, phew, i only discovered it just today. Thanks again OVI Support!!!!! More power!

Delete old and backed up archive log,
Hi all,
Am trying to modify our RMAN backup script to delete old and backed up archive logs off the disk.
We run daily Incremental L0 or L1 backups, with 3 daily archive log backups. Currently we delete archive logs as they are backed up (backup archivelog all delete input). However, we are considering leaving x days worth of archive logs on disk, just in case, quick restore is needed (e.g. tablespace media recovery etc. etc.)
For example,
We can delete archive logs old tha n x (where x=no_days depending on database) by,
delete archivelog until time 'sysdate-15';
We can also delete archive logs that have been backed up to disk by,
delete archivelog all backed up 1 times to disk;
Questions,
1) Why does 'backed up 1 times to disk' require the 'all' in the statement ?
2) Is there any way to combine the 2 statements ? (backed up 1 times and older than x days ?). Just being a bit extra cautious to ensure that we have everything backed up. In real-world shouldn't be a problem, as we will be alerted to any backup failures, but trying to cater for the very worst situation.
Thanks for your help and insight.Hi,
Scratch the questions. Found the answer in another thread. Seems when I tried to combine the statements initally, I had a typo.
It is now working as expected.
Thanks and regards, -
Time Machine Deletes Old Backups without warning!!
I have just lost loads of pictures and emails when my Timemachine deleted old backups. I was so happy to have an easy way to keep my iPhoto cleaned up while keeping all the photos for the future. I would load my all the photos from my camera, backup with TimeMachine and delete the "bad" unwanted photos, confident in the knowledge that these pictures are still there on my external. I looked forward to some future date when someone would write an easy piece of software to consolidate old iPhoto libraries and even go through TimeMachine and consolidate those photos too. But until that fantasy event, my pictures, even though not wanted were still there.
Not any more!!
I replaced my hard drive and reloaded my laptop from Timemachine and I think that was the event that sparked the dump.
There should be a special check box to make sure that NO backups are automatically deleted, EVER. They should be a way to make them Sacred!!
There should be a way to create a separate backup just for iPhoto because right now, there are no good ways to easily break apart or merge iPhoto libraries. At least what I was doing worked, (well.... until it didn't).
Any ideas??nerowolfe wrote:
True, TM is not a classic archival system, but until the drive is full, the difference is moot.
No, the difference isn't moot.
I still have on my TM HD every file I ever had because it's only 1/2 full.
No, you don't. Read on...
Time machine has three levels of backups:
1) hourly - deleted after 24 hours
2) daily - deleted after a week
3) weekly - deleted only when the disk is full - these are the only deletions you will be warned about
Time machine is always deleting files. Every time it backs up, it deletes files.
But the OP's real question is why he was never warned about the old backups being deleted, as TM says it will do, archival stuff notwithstanding. Apparently TM simply ignores the user's request to be warned.
No, it doesn't.
That being said, as I asked in a post not too long ago, "how many have had a warning from TM that old backups are being deleted?" as one would expect when the TM preference box, "Warn when old backups are deleted" is checked.
It appears to me to be a bug.
I ask again if anyone has gotten this warning.
Nobody answered my previous post with a yes.
Yes.
Because Time Machine continually cleans up behind itself, it tries very hard to ever delete the weekly backups. The only time I've gotten the deletion warning was when my disk was full. I think I just avoided the problem by removing my old Parallels images from Time Machine and got back an extra 70 gig or so - good for another six months.
This is not a bug. This is how Time Machine works. It is unfortunate that the original poster did not fully understand this. The fact is that Time Machine backs everything up. If you create 100 files, it backs up the folder with 100 new files. If you delete 100 files, it backs up the folder with 100 less files. Then, the next day, it deletes old backups. The only one it keeps is the last one, with 100 less files.
It is correct to say that Time Machine is not an archival system. It is a backup system. If you want to save your files forever, you need to copy them to a location that isn't under the control of any sort of automatic software. -
Since Mavericks upgrade, Time Capsule stuck deleting old backups ... for days
I have a previous generation 2TB Time Capsule shared by three of us, each with separate accounts.
I know there's not much space left on the Time Capsule and that it's therefore expected that Time Machine would make room by deleting old backups. But my account seems stuck forever on these deletions (for over 72 hours now), while the other two accounts on the Time Capsule are working just fine.
I've been through Pondini's recommendations for (a) patience and (b) finally resetting Time Machine, but on it goes.
Here is the last couple of hours of the log (filtered for this problem). The entire log for the last 72 hours is too long to post -- but the pattern is the same, with the constant deletions barely making a dent, and sometimes in fact the space available decreases.
I'd cheerfully give up on the oldest backups, but meanwhile it's been 8 days since TC has been able to complete a backup. (I have been cloning the drive daily with SuperDuper just to make sure I have a fallback until this is figured out.)
Hoping one of you can recommend a course of action.
Thanks in advance for any help...

When doing show logging ion ise i get logs from 2 years ago. I need to delete old logs entries.do have any idea?
Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPad AppKhaled,
The show logging command through CLI will show you the logging of the ADE-OS, not the ISE Application. This shows all logged entries from the installation of the ISE. to see what other operations are available through the show logging command, type sh logging ?:
To delete the local logs, you must log in through the WebGUI and navigate to Administration > System > Logging. Click Local Log Settings in the left menu. You can then set the duration to keep the logs and can even click on Delete Local Logs Now if you want to completely purge the local logs. NOTE that this will only delete the logs local to the ISE and NOT on any remote logging server.
ISE 1.1.x:
ISE 1.2:

Taking tablespace offline through RMAN command line
I am taking a Oracle 9i Backup and Recovery class. One of the hands-on assignments is to simulate a lost datafile. The instructions say to shut down the database through RMAN, delete the INDX01.dbf datafile through my operating system, mount the database, take the INDX tablespace offline, open the database, recover the INDX01.dbf datafile, and then place the INDX tablespace online again.
My problem is that when I issue the command (in RMAN) to take the INDX tablespace offline (remember, database is mounted), I get an error saying the database is not open. The command I am issuing through RMAN is this: >sql 'ALTER TABLESPACE INDX OFFLINE IMMEDIATE'; I can't get any further because of the error message that my database is not open. Is my instruction book wrong in that I can't take the tablespace offline if the database is in a mounted state? Does the database have to be open to do this?4. Mount the database and take the tablespace corresponding to Indx01.dbf data file offline.There could be a misunderstanding about the command to be used. ALTER TABLESPACE command needs an open DB to work, but you can use
RMAN> sql 'alter database datafile <file name or file number> offline drop';
that will work with DB in mount state. See this example :
RMAN> startup mount
