Erasing Tapes using RMAN
I am running the below RMAN Script to backup my Database.
run {
allocate channel LS type 'SBT_TAPE' format 'b_%u_%s_%p';
backup ( database include current controlfile );
backup ( archivelog all
delete input );
The backup is running fine.
Now I am looking @ erasing the tape before backups.
Can I do this using RMAN Script.
i.e.
Can my script be like
run {
allocate channel LS type 'SBT_TAPE' format 'b_%u_%s_%p';
send device type 'SBT_TAPE''SOME STRING TO TO TELL MY BACKUP SOFTWARE TO OVERWRITE MEDIA';
backup ( database include current controlfile );
backup ( archivelog all
delete input );
}
You are able to erase your tapes by issuing "delete obsolete;" command. I'm talking about Rman 9i and above where you have specified the retention for your backups. But before you can issue command delete, you should allocate channel for you backup madia management (TSM, Legato,...) with special keyword "for manintenance".
RMAN> connect catalog xxx/xxx@rman
RMAN> connect target
RMAN> allocate channel for maintenance type 'SBT_TAPE' parms='ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/app/oracle/tsm/config/tdpo_ORAX_backup.opt)';
RMAN> DELETE OBSOLETE;
RMAN> release channel;
RMAN> exit

Moving backed up file in disk to tape using RMAN
Hi All,
Is there a way in RMAN to move an already backed up file present in disk to tape?
The scenario is as follows:
RMAN backs up database to disk on week days initially. At a particular day, say during Saturdays, those backed up file (made on week days) in disk will be moved to tape (to clear disk space). I wish to know if RMAN has this capability to move the backed up file from disk to tape (FLASHBACK is not enabled in the database). This will help RMAN to restore the files from tape in case of restore/recovery. I don't want RMAN to take the backup on tape straight away.
Oracle Database Version : 10.2.0
OS : SunOS 5.10
I'd be grateful if you can provide me with suggestions.
Thanks,
...RMAN will not move the already backed up files.
Instead you can use CATALOG START WITH option to move the files from disk to catalog.
Schedule this as a job then RMAN will move the backup files.
refer this,

Archive Files not Writing to Tape (Legato+RMAN)
Our data warehouse uses RMAN and Legato to transfer archive logs to DLT. The robot that triggers RMAN was not started causing a close crash of datawarehousde. Now legoto does not recognize the server
nullDavid,
In order to backup to tape using RMAN, you must use a third-party MMV software. If you do not currently have one, you may want to try installing LSM that is shpped with Oracle. Then once the LSM library is linked with RMAN, you will be able to backup to tape.
The LSM manuals can be found at:http://technet.oracle.com/doc/oracle8i_816/server.816/a77218/toc.htm.

1. restore the controlfile
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup nomount
exit
rman
connect target /
restore controlfile from '/path to the controlfile backup piece';
exit
sqlplus / as sysdba
alter database mount

How to backup database using RMAN on another server's tape?
Dear All,
Please give me an advise what parameters I should set up in RMAN to backup database on another server's tape.
Best wishies,
GiviI am connected to the database server from the server
where I have tape, but Rman is searching tape on
database server.I am not sure I understabd the above statement, but at the Operating System Level, you must ensure that from the Server you are running RMAN, it is configured to see the Tape Drive of the other Server. Once the Remote Tape is mounted with any name (say sbt) on the Local Server (however it is done with), then RMAN can configure the channels to use it.
If you cannot get this access at the Operating System Level, then do not bother trying RMAN to access it. -
RMAN Backup to tape using Oracle Secure Backup
I am trying to take 11g R2 (11.2.0.3) database backup using RMAN. I am using Oracle Secure Backup for configuring virtual tape library and virtual tape drive.
Whenever, I am running the RMAN backup script it simply hangs. While checking the backup job status from Oracle Secure Backup web interface, the job status are displaying 'pending resource availability'.
On, furthur investigating the job, the following error message are displayed,
" Dispatching job to run on oradb. Drive or volume on which mount attempted is unusable".

Not able to fix this error. Need help
Message was edited by: 799814There is a VTL: http://mhvtl-linux-virtual-tape-library-community-forums.966029.n3.nabble.com/
really work well with OSB 10.3.0.3 64bit, the version of it, fully tested by me , is 1.2
The installation guide of it here:
mh virtual tape & library system.
Instructions assume reader is familiar with the kernel build process.
There are two sections of code to build.
- The kernel module
- The user-space daemons.
Kernel module mhvtl:
==================
1) Make sure the kernel-devel package to match your running kernel is installed.
e.g.
RedHat AS 4 & 5:
# rpm -qa|grep kernel
kernel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL
kernel-devel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL
kernel-2.6.9-5.EL
kernel-devel-2.6.9-5.EL
kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.80
SLES 9 & 10:
# rpm -qa|grep kernel
2) Extract the mhvtl source code.
# tar xvfz mhvtl-2012-04-04.tgz
3) Change directory into the kernel driver source.
# cd mhvtl-1.2/kernel/
# make
# make install
User space daemons:
===================
Pre-req for a running mhvtl
- sg3_utils (http://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg3_utils.html)
Pre-req to build/compile userspace:
- zlib-devel
* To build an RPM
===============
cp mhvtl-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz /usr/src/packages/SOURCE/
cd /usr/src/packages/SOURCE
rpmbuild -tb mhvtl-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz
<wait for rpm build to complete>
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/packages/RPMS/<cpu type>/mhvtl-1.2-z.<cpu type>.rpm
(The rpm install will create system group & accounts vtl)
- Note: For RedHat, replace 'packages' with 'redhat'
* To build from tar archive (Debian / Ubuntu):
============================================
apt-get install lsscsi
apt-get install sg3_utils
To limit damage that may occur by wayward daemons, I highly recommend creating
a group and user called 'vtl'
# /usr/sbin/groupadd --system vtl
# /usr/sbin/useradd --system -c "Vitrual Tape Library" -d /opt/vtl -g vtl -m vtl
Now build user space daemons:
From the parent directory where you extracted the source.
# cd mhvtl-1.2
Build the binaries
# make
Install the rc script into /etc/init.d/ and binaries to /usr/local/bin/
# make install
Start daemons:
/etc/init.d/mhvtl start
Test:
Note: Make sure the 'mtx' & 'lsscsi' utilities are installed
The virtual devices are attached to HBA #5 in this example.
e.g.
# lsscsi -g

Using rman to backup a remote database
I am after a good guide or advice on how (what) to install and (how to) run Oracle RMAN
to backup a remote Oracle database.
RMAN must be installed and run on a Solaris (SunOS 5.8) box remote from the Solaris
box (also SunOS 5.8) running the Oracle database but connected to it via a TCP/IP
network.
The Oracle Recovery Manager and Database version is 9.2.0.1.0.
RMAN must perform the backup of the remote database over the network and store
the backup on a disk local to the RMAN box.
The backups may be full or incremental and may be "hot" backups taken while the
Oracle database is open.
The disk files are to be then backed up to tape using Veritas.
What software do I need to install on the RMAN box ?
What software do I need to install on the remote Oracle database box ?
Thanks,
Brett Morgan.writes to a NFS-mounted diskRman is writing to disk or tape (when is bundled (libraries needed) with some backup software for tapes such as Veritas). The disk device could be local, or mounted disk form other host or storage (over NFS as Werner mentioned, SMB and others).

How to restore a database from host A to host B by using RMAN
Hi there
I wanted to restore 1 database from machine A to machine B with the differente files systemes. I did these steps below, but I have a problem when I restore the controlfile from machine A to machine B.

To restore backup on different host using RMAN
Hi All,
Friend I need your help once again. I want to restore my database from the past backup to new HOST by keeping the original database intact using RMAN. Let me explain the scenario:-
Databas Version - 8.1.7
OS - Solaris 5.8
We are using RMAN with Tivoli as third party media management. I just need to restore the database from this tape library using RMAN with recovery catalog on new server. The only doubt I have is how I will make the backups of the production database whose backup has to be restored available on the new host where I have to create new database.
I will be using different file structure for the newly restored database. Do I have to create TDPO files seperately on the server on which I have to restore the database.
Please reply asap.
Regards
Harpreet SinghYou need to create a tdpo.opt file of source on the destination database. Then, allocate channel using this TDPO_OPTFILE and recover database.

Duplicate Oracle Database 8.1.7.0 using RMAN
An old database needs to be duplicated... :(
We have an old database named TAPES running on Windows 2003 (32bit) and Oracle 8.1.7.0
The team wants to duplicate / clone this database to another location. We have setup another server, with Windows 2003 and installed Oracle Software 8.1.7.0 with
starter database. The two machines A and B has no network connection (they are on different sites). Also the structure of the machines are different (the location of the database files are different)
How can I duplicate this using RMAN. We cannot afford any downtime on TAPES prod. The idea is:
-backup TAPES prod using RMAN (hot backup)
-copy and tranport the backup files to the remote machine B
-restore (and recover) the RMAN backup to Machine B
-the duplicate database has the same name
In oracle 9i, 10g and 11g, this is easy...and i must admit...i dont know how to do it in Oracle 8.1.7.0...
I need help... :(
thanks a lot!thanks...i saw one article with this approach..but the document did not present the detailed process...do you have one? i am still searching for a good procedure to follow...since it is an old database and focusing/studying old versions like this is a pain in the a**... :(

I've not used RMAN before and am still kind of new to Oracle and I have a question about using RMAN.
We currently have all our databases on SAN and NAS and everynight they are put into hot backup mode and the SAN and NAS take snapshots of them.
We also do a full export everynight.
Given this setup what if any benefits would I see in replacing either or both methods with RMAN backups ?
Thanks.I advice you to refer to a [documentation |http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/toc.htm] and to an excellent book " [RMAN Recipes for Oracle Database 11g : A Problem-Solution Approach|http://www.amazon.com/RMAN-Recipes-Oracle-Database-Problem-Solution/dp/1590598512] "
Here's some RMAN benefits from that book :
Here’s a brief description of the important benefits of using RMAN instead of usermanaged backup and recovery techniques:
* You can take advantage of the powerful Data Recovery Advisor feature, which enables you to easily diagnose and repair data failures and corruption (Chapter 20 discusses the Data Recovery Advisor).
* There are simpler backup and recovery commands.
* It automatically manages the backup files without DBA intervention.
* It automatically deletes unnecessary backup datafiles and archived redo log files both from disk and tape.
* It provides you with detailed reporting of backup actions.
* It provides considerable help in duplicating a database or creating a standby database.
* It lets you test whether you can recover your database, without actually restoring data.
* It lets you verify that available backups are usable for recovery.
* It lets you make incremental backups, which isn’t possible by any other means of backup.
* It lets you perform database duplication without backups by using the network-enabled database duplication feature, also known as active duplication.
* It automatically detects corrupt data blocks during backups, with the corruption relevant information recorded in the V$DATABASE_BLOCK_CORRUPTION view.
* When only a few data blocks are corrupted, you can recover at the data block level, instead of recovering an entire datafile.
* You can take advantage of the unused block compression feature, wherein RMAN skips unused data blocks during a backup.
* Only RMAN provides the ability to perform encrypted backups.
* You can use RMAN with a variety of third-party storage systems.
* You can use a powerful yet easy-to-use scripting language, which lets you write custom
backup and recovery scripts quickly

Synchronous multimaster replication Backup strategy using RMAN
Hi all,
I am using synchronous multimaster replication. my question is backup strategy has to perofirm in all the master site or only in any of 1 mastersite? what all problems will encounter in RMAn backup in my scenario please help me out with your suggestion
nagaraj.K
[email protected]You ask: "I want to configure backup strategy using RMAN. any one can help me that"
And the answer is clearly no we can not.
An RMAN backup strategy depends on your SLA (Service Level Agreement) with your customers that you didn't post. What is your down-time window? What is your skill set?
You ask: "How to configure for RMAN Incremental backup?"
Read the docs at http://tahiti.oracle.com for your version (which you didn't mention).
You ask: "What will be backup space and there size ?"
We have no idea. Are you going to create an image copy or a backup set? Read the docs and learn the difference. Are you going to turn on compression? Are you going to back up only changed blocks? We don't know.
You ask: "how to manage growing online archiving files?"
Again we can't help you without knowing your SLA. How many MG/GB are they? What period of time do you need to retain them to meet your SLA? When you figure this out back up to tape those you don't need to keep on the server.
You ask: "how to manage growing data and there disk space?"
This is one we can answer: BUY MORE DISK! That was easy.
You ask: "How we can give good performance our CPU and memory?"
Do you really expect that we can with zero knowledge of your environment, your version, your application, etc. distill into a few short paragraphs the collective wisdom of Cary Millsap, Jonathan Lewis, and the rest of the Oak Table Network membership?
Of course we can not. So what you need to do is buy Cary's book, Jonathan's book, and take their classes.
You ask: "we need keep all archive log in backup files or we need to remove old archive files?"
Remove the old ones after being absolutely sure you have a good backup.
You ask: "where we can take backup tape drive,SAN,disk removable hard disk? which one is better?"
No one solution is better than the other. They are all adequate. -
Does anyone know the approximate time required for backing up 10GB datbase using RMAN?
Hi ...
Also the speed depend on the way you use to do the backup ...
Using parallel option of RMAN ( setting an appropiate set of channels ), and using a set of drives that allows multiplex write on tape ( ie, STK9840 w/Veritas Netbackup) a 10 Gb database full online backup will take not more than 5.6 minutes (using 2 drives )
Using 4 drives your backup can be reduced to 3 minutes ..

Using RMAN, how do you restore from an old backup file?
HI,
I use Oracle 9i on Solaris.
I'm currently doing incremental level 0 hot backups every night using RMAN in NOCATALOG mode. The controlfile is backed up with the database. I back it up to a file (e.g. "level0_20041225.dmp"). After I back it up, it's backed up to tape using Veritas. Before doing a backup, I delete the old one first.
I need to restore a copy of the database backup that was taken a month ago. This file is on tape. How do I go about it using RMAN? The documentation is not too clear as it talks more about Restoring the control file and the latest copy of the database.
How do you restore an old copy of the database from a database file?
Pls advise
ThanksYou can recover to the last committed transaction,
provided you have the current controlfile, archived
logs since the backup and the current online logs.
Here's the procedure in a nutshell:
a) Restore datafiles from tape.
b) Recover database using restored files + current
controlfiles and archived/online logs. RMAN will prompt
you for the logs it needs for recovery.
You can also perform this type of recovery using a
backup controlfile. In this case you would still need
all logs as above. After recovery, you would have to
open the database with RESETLOGS because you are using
a backup controlfile.
If you don't want/need to recover up to the last
committed transaction, you use a backup controlfile and
perform incomplete recovery (time or change based). This
simply means that you stop the application of redo at
the time or SCN of your choice.
Most of the scenarios of interest are documented in
the following book:

Restore the dropped tablespace using RMAN?
Hello,
I have done a oracle tablespace re-org for PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI. Now I want to restore only the OLD PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI tablespace using TAPE backup via RMAN.
The probelm is I have dropped the old tablespace during re-org which is a part of the re-org. Is it possible to restore the dropped tablespace using RMAN?
My Oracle version is 9.2.05
if anyone has done this before, please share your valuable ideas.
I wrote the below script for the restore.
run {
allocate channel ch1 type sbt_tape;
startup nomount
restore controlfile; -
>(I guess,if I restore old control file, I might get old structure which help the restore of TB)
alter database mount ;
restore tablespace PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI;
recover tablespace PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI;;
release channel ch1;
Thanks,
Arjun

Hello Arjun,
why would you want to do this?
What is is you want to achieve by this action?
BTW: it's not possible to do that.
Check [Performing RMAN Tablespace Point-in-Time Recovery|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96566/rcmtspit.htm].
You want a "Tablespace point in time recovery" (TSPITR) for a dropped tablespace and that is just not possible with RMAN.
So, the easiest way for you to get this tablespace back would be to restore and recover the database to a different host.
Ah, while we're at it: using RMAN outside the BRTOOLS is not supported by SAP - so you better be a wiz with it because there won't be much help in case anything does not work.
regards,
