Difference in o/p in CROSSCHECK & RESTORE ARCHIVELOG VALIDATE

hi,
i m planning to restore and recovery from a backup(full hot Level 0) taken between '24.05.2012 11:41:00' AND '24.05.2012 12:03:07'; But when i run the crosscheck and restore archivelog validate there seems to be an extra archivelog backup piece reported in restore archivelog validate command.
Also there was 2 backups taken on same day but different time
LEVEL 0 ======> between '24.05.2012 11:41:00' AND '24.05.2012 12:03:07'
LEVEL 1 CUMMULATIVE =======> between '24.05.2012 12:29:46' AND '24.05.2012 12:35:59'
below the difference in o/p when i run the crosscheck and restore archivelog validate

released channel: t1As you can see one extra archivelog backup piece is reported and that too from HOT_DB_BK_LEVEL1(LEVEL 1 CUMMULATIVE BACKUP) which was between '24.05.2012 12:29:46' AND '24.05.2012 12:35:59'.
I m afraid if i execute the real restore command it will apply this extra archivelog from LEVEL 1 CUMMULATIVE BACKUP

Yes that is true,but my question is when i run crosscheck i have all the required archivelogs availiable (6 archivelogs) but when i execute restore archivelog validate why it give (6+1) archivelogs why not only those 6 from LEVEL 0 hot backup
i have clearly specified UNTIL TIME "TO_DATE('24.05.2012 12:03:07','dd.mm.yyyy hh24:mi:ss')" in restore archivelog validate but still it also give me extra archive log backup piece from LEVEL 1 backup taken way after TO_DATE('24.05.2012 12:03:07','dd.mm.yyyy hh24:mi:ss').

  • RESTORE ARCHIVELOG ALL VALIDATE; - returns log file names

    Environment:
    Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris 10.5
    RMAN using control file as repository.
    My archive logs are going to /arch/<SID>. During a time of unforeseen high activity the directory was filling up and some of the files had to be move to a different mount point. I have since done several Level 0 incremental backups including (plus) archivelogs.
    My RMAN archivelog deletion setting is: CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO BACKED UP 1 TIMES TO DISK;
    I have since begun to run more frequent archive log backups to keep the mount point cleaner.
    Since I have several successful Level 0 backups including archivelogs, I manually deleted the archived logs on the secondary mount point.
    I registered the logs in the secondary mount point using REGISTER ARCHIVELOG START IN '/xxxx';
    I then ran a CROSSCHECK ARCHIVELOG ALL; to update the control file repository.
    When I query the V$ARCHIVED_LOG view I see many entries for my deleted log files with a STATUS = 'X' (Expired) and a BACKUP_COUNT = 0.
    I ran DELETE EXPIRED ARCHIVELOG ALL;
    Now when I query the V$ARCHIVED_LOG view I see many entries with blank name column for the SEQUENCE# in my list and with a STATUS = 'D' (Deleted) and a BACKUP_COUNT = 0.
    When I run a RESTORE ARCHIVELOG ALL VALIDATE; it returns a long list of my deleted files with:
    RMAN-06025: no backup of archived log ... to restore
    OK, enough background. My question is how do I get RMAN to not look for my deleted files since I have several good backups?
    I realize my deletion policy says the files have to be backed up once to disk, which according to the V$ARCHIVED_LOG view they are not, but I was hoping since I ran the CROSSCHECK RMAN would not even be concerned with them.
    Many thanks for any advice!!
    -gary

    Thanks for the help! Square brackets! Doh!
    I changed the SQL just a bit. I have only one (1) thread and the primary database was running for several months before the standby was implemented so there are over 3500 sequence#'s in the V$ARCHIVED_LOG view for the Primary (DEST=1) that are not in the Standby (DEST=2).
    Here's the SQL I ran, using the SQUARE brackets! :-)
    SELECT SEQUENCE#
    FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG
    WHERE DEST_ID=1
    MINUS
    SELECT SEQUENCE#
    FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG
    WHERE DEST_ID=2It appears to me the Standby is accepting and applying the archived logs from the Primary based on looking at the most recent archived log sequence#'s.
    I'm just trying to get rid of the entries in the RESTORE ARCHIVELOG VALIDATE; command output.
    I don't have an RMAN Repository but am using the control files at the moment.
    Any other suggestions are very welcomed!!
    Thanks again!

    Really the error is very strange realizing that if functions well for about 6 days or something like that.
    this is a notable line in the error.
    some targets not found - aborting restore
    I recommend you to check very well your targets path
    to be restore. I think that is the cause of the failure.

You deleted your archived redo logs in 3rd stepNO, After 1st step i deleted /moved archivelog , thats why @ 3rd step its giving error that Oracle Cant Find Archivelog to delete ( i guess it dsnt matter )
    NOW, as i have a backup of archivelog in backupset , how do i restore archivelogs from there??Following should help you in restoration of archive redo logs. Simplest way is to use "restore archivelog all" to restore all archived redo logs from your backups which are available.
    when i do this , its giving error

    The error "A backup or restore session is already in progress. (100:17:0)" comes from the MML -- the Tape Management software. It prevents you from running a RESTORE.

  • Restore archivelog

    Hi,
    on 10gR2 Win 2003 Server
    yesterday I restored some archived logs in a new folder from RMAN backups like this :
    RUN
      SET ARCHIVELOG DESTINATION TO 'D:\base\MABASE\Newarch';
      restore archivelog FROM sequence 439 until sequence 458 ;
    }This morning I had the following error :
    RMAN-06059: expected archived log not found 'D:\base\MABASE\Newarch'\ARC00439_0679858367.001I can not understand. Why RMAN look for in a wrong directory after having restored some Archived logs?
    Should I have rolled back in my script and wrot it like this :
    RUN
      SET ARCHIVELOG DESTINATION TO 'D:\base\MABASE\Newarch';
      restore archivelog FROM sequence 439 until sequence 458 ;
      SET ARCHIVELOG DESTINATION TO 'D:\base\MABASE\arch';
    }Thank you.

    Hi,
    Manually copy the archives to the new destination path..and after that set it in RMAN
    RUN
    SET ARCHIVELOG DESTINATION TO 'D:\base\MABASE\Newarch';( Guess this is the new path where the archvies has to be copied manually)
    restore archivelog FROM sequence 439 until sequence 458 ;
    thanks,

  • Rman restore archivelogs files only, but in other machine.

    Hello,
    i need to restore archivelog files in another machine for use with logminer without use my actual +FRA for space reason and withouy use "set destination to"
    How i can do it?
    thanks and regards

    Hello,
    in the new machine i have a clone database with a init.ora file that use db_recovery_dest to new path (not +FRA) in a filesystem.
    When run a rman script this connect to target(production database) , rman catalog, and auxiliary (my clone database).
    I restore a clone controlfile, so mount the clone database, then restore logfile from sequence = xxxx until sequence = XXX , BUT the archivelogfile was restored in target database (production database) inside the +FRA
    This is my logfile of rman script.
    Regards.

  • RMAN Error - restore database validate

    Hi all
    I am trying to validate a full database backup taken on tape using 'restore database validate' command but for some reason this command spits out multi-page long PL/SQL code (below truncated output). I have searched all over for a solution but can't seem to figure out the problem.
    Any assistance will be appreciated.

    Hi Sybrand
    So here's the deal:
    1) 'backup validate database;' is run before RMAN backup to check for any logical or physical corruption in datafiles or archivelogs.
    If the backup validation discovers corrupt blocks, then RMAN updates the V$DATABASE_BLOCK_CORRUPTION view with rows describing the corruptions.
    2)
    a- 'restore database validate;' is run after RMAN backup to check for any logical or physical corruption in backupsets.
    b- 'validate backupset <n>;' is also run after RMAN backup to check for any logical or physical corruption in backupsets. The difference being you have to run it for each individual backupset as opposed to the previous option (2a), which loops through all existing backupsets.
    I believe for now only option 2b is available for use in my case.
    Cheers.

  • RMAN restore database validate

    All,
    I cannot seem to find anything in the Oracle documentation what the RMAN restore database validate checks for? Does it check for physical and logical corruption or do I need to validate the backup using logical statement to check for this?
    I would appreciate it if somebody could point me in the right direction.
    This is for Oracle 9iR2
    Many thanks

  • Restore database validate command

    Hey Guys..
    Is there a way to attempt to run the "restore database validate" command specifying a different location for the backup?
    Lets say i have a backup in the following location: C:\SimpleBackup
    How can i run the restore validate command to that location instead of the default flash recovery?

    We always use the :
    set newname for datafile 1 to '/opt/dbsid/db01/system.dbf';
    set newname for datafil 2 to '/opt/dbsid/db01/temp01.dbf';
    to restore backup files to another location.
    Is that useable here ?
    Edit: I just re-read the question. Is the c:\simplebackup a destination to put restored files to, or is it the location of the rman archive ?
    if the first is true, then the above can't be used.

  • Restore archivelog without target and no catalog

    Hello,
    I am trying to restore one archivelog without the target and no catalog from a backup piece.
    My goal it is to apply this archive to my duplicate database to able to do a resetlog.
    But since now I did not find the right way.
    Any ideal
    Thanks in advance

    I don't think you can you use the RESTORE command to restore an archived redo log: RESTORE command work only on control file, database, tablespace or datafile level. To request to RMAN to apply an archived redo log, you should try to use the UNTIL clause
    that is used by the RECOVER command or the SET UNTIL statement.
    What is your Oracle version ?
    What are the RMAN statements you have used and the errors that prevent you to do a RESETLOGS ?

  • Difference between  archive logs and flashback zipped archivelogs?

    Can someone explain to me the difference between the archive logs in the E:\oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\RDBMS\ and the zipped archive logs in the E:\oracle\flash_recovery_area\sid\ARCHIVELOG\<date>?
    They appear to be written at the same time and to be an exact copy of each other. Couldn't you use the flashback archivelog as a backup if the archivelog under the oracle_home was corrupted?
    Thanks for taking this question!
    Kathie

    Obviously you have multiplexed archivelog destinations (check 'show parameter log_archive_dest' in sqlplus). By default one destination is defined as log_archive_dest_10='LOCATION=USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST',that's the Flashback Recovery Area. 'Someone' defined a second destination.
    It's the purpose of multiple destinations to be protected against failures of one destination.
