Extract the single archivelogfile from RMAN backup

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to extract the single archivelogfile from RMAN which taken on primary database.
This archivelogfile is required for recovering the standby database.
Oracle version is 10.2.0
Thanks in advacne.......

If you have backup of archivelogs then you can restore archivelogs(one or more) using below command
rman>restore archivelog from sequence 20 until sequence 21

Completeness of Prerequisites for Recovering Tables for PDBs from RMAN Backups

Could you verify the completeness of following prerequisities on pag. 441 of the "Backup and Recovery User's Guide 12c Release 1 (12.1) E17630-14"
Prerequisites for Recovering Tables and Table Partitions from RMAN Backups
■ The target database must be in read-write mode.
■ The target database must be in ARCHIVELOG mode.
■ You must have RMAN backups of the tables or table partitions as they existed at the point in time to which you want recover these objects.
■ To recover single table partitions, the COMPATIBLE initialization parameter for target database must be set to 11.1.0 or higher.
According to my test Database administrator workshop: How to recover a table in a pluggable database from a backup
those prerequisities are valid for CDBs or non-CBDs, but if you want to recover tables or table partitions in PDBs a different prerequisite is needed.
Indeed if you have a backup of only the pluggable database including the missing table (the third prerequisite above), but you don't have any backup of the container database the command...
recover table ... of pluggable database ... until scn ... auxiliary destination ...
will fail with the following errors:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 02/12/2014 12:22:18
RMAN-03015: error occurred in stored script Memory Script
RMAN-06026: some targets not found - aborting restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 3 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 4 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 1 found to restore
So to recover table in PDBs you must have also the RMAN backups of the CDB or in the opposite way it's not sufficient to have only the backups of the pluggable database, because during the creation of the auxiliary database the SYS, SYSAUX and the UNDO tablespace are required.

Hi,
Before dropping a DB we had taken an RMAN backup.I hope you were in mount mode.
Will RMAN automatically recognize the FORMAT of the backup piece and restore ?No it won't.
First you have to restore a controlfile in nomount mode with:
restore controlfile from '/u04/backup/rmanbkp /02mo9fnc_1_1';
and do alter database mount.
Than you have to run "catalog start with '/u04/backup/rmanbkp'; " so the instance now knows where to find the pieces.
Now you can run a restore database command.
Than open the database with resetlogs.

Can not recover table from rman backup

For testing I want to recover deleted table from rman backup.
I have make vm of oracle 11g. the following step i have applied but could not recover the table.

it shows me one row successfully.
Now i have login the sys as sysdba

after this i have drop the table .
Now to recover the table i have restored database on same vm.

My pfile has new db_name , but while db creation rman setting to db_name to source dbname.. it should be new db name that i want create with new db name...
is there any RMAN command to specify new DB name it should set while running
sql statement: alter system set db_name = newdbname -- as part rman script execution...
it appears to be i should not touch the soruce db.. i have access to only source db rman backups and need to create another db with different dbname/sid.. please do help...

When you performing RMAN duplicate why you making your script so complicated?
Your instance name and DB name can be different, But what is the contents in your pfile "D:\TESTDELETE\initclonedb1.ora" ? please do post
Have you started any other services related to ORACLE? check in start --> run --> services.msc any other active oracles services, Make sure you have clonedb1.
Startup in nomount
check the connectivity to target server.
SET NEWNAME FOR TEMPFILE 1 TO 'F:\app\HOME\oradata\clonedb1\TEMP01.DBF';Why you mentioning SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE ? You have option of db_file_name_convert/log_file_name_convert in case if your file system different in Target & auxiliary.
BACKUP LOCATION 'F:\app\HOME\flash_recovery_area\orcl\'When you have backup in same location why you are mentioning this clause?
First run duplicate from auxiliary server as
rman target sys/*****@prod auxiliary /
RMAN> duplicate target database to "db_name";
Am not sure what you are trying to do. is it 11gR1 or 11gR2?
You have option of duplicate from active database without having backup also..
here some links please check it.

I am not able to restore spfile from rman backup ;;;

Hi,
I would like to know few things
1. How are you setting the db_name ? you can set db_id at RMAN, how are you setting the db_name ?
2. Do you have any default init file at default location ? if yes, is the db_name parameter set correctly in that file ?
Since spfile is yet to be restored, you must set the db_name parameter correctly before you start spfile restore.This can be done with init file at default location which can even contain just one paremeter i.e db_name.

Undo tablespace recovery from RMAN backup

Hi,
Lets's assume we have RMAN backup and archivelog backups, and now
my undo tablespace's disk crashed ,how can i recover?
Can i recover while database is up?
Thanks,
Kumar.

to recover UNDO tablespace from RMAN backup you must shutdown the database and start it in the MOUNT state to recover the missing files as follows
rman target /
RUN
STARTUP MOUNT;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch3 TYPE Disk;
RESTORE datafile 'c:\u01\prod3\undo01.dbf';
RECOVER datafile 'c:\u01\prod3\undo01.dbf';
ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch3;
hope this will help you

How to estimate recovery time from rman backup

how to estimate recovery time from rman backup?
The database is of size 800GB.
the approximate time to backup is 8- 10 hours.

"Recovery time" is : RESTORE DATABASE time + RECOVER DATABASE time.
RESTORE can be done
a. in parallel with multiple channels if your backup was created as multiple backupsets
b. using incremental backups
c. whether the backups are on
i. disk
ii. tape
Alternatively, if you have a Recovery Area with an Incrementally Update backup of the database, you can SWITCH DATABASE almost immediately
RECOVER depends on
a. how many archivelogs (in terms of size, not necessarily number) need to be applied
-- this depends on
i. transaction volume
ii. the "freshness" of the backups (how recent the backups are)
b. whether required archivelogs are available on disk (which can be the case if the database backup itself is a very recent backup and archivelogs since then haven't been deleted {whether they have been backed up or not}) OR whether they need to be restored from
i. disk backup
ii. tape backup

Unable to restore and recover my Database from RMAN Backup

Dear All,
Iam practicing RMAN in Windows environment.
My configurations are
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 1; # default
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 'F:\Backup\%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default

CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'E:\ORACLE\DATABASE\SNCFORCL.ORA';
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT 'F:\Backup\%U.bak';
Then i took the RMAN backup, now iam shutdown my DB and removed one logfile..
then i tried to startup the DB but it is saying
ORA-00313: open failed for members of log group 3 of thread 1
ORA-00312: online log 3 thread 1: 'E:\ORADATA\ORCL\REDO03.LOG'
So i tried to restore the Database with my rman backup
RMAN> restore database;
But i am unable to restore my logfile in the Datafiles location where as all other datafiles are restored but redo logfiles are not restored.
So, i am unable to recover my DB
Please tell me whether i am doing any mistake, what is the solution for my problem.
Thanks in advance
Mahi

All you restored was your datafiles.
Now issue recover database and that will apply the archive logs.
This is in the oracle documentation.
"You must restore backups of these archived logs for recovery to proceed. You can restore either to the default or nondefault location. If you do not have backups, then you must performing incomplete recovery up to an SCN before the first missing redo log and open RESETLOGS."
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/backup.111/b28270/osrecvry.htm
In this case after issuing restore database in RMAN, then issue this.
"Recover database"
It will then be an incomplete recovery. They should have been multiplexed. Did you restore your controlfile with this backup? You may have to issue an "Alter database open resetlogs;"

I am changing to a larger hard drive on my Mac. Can I copy the Aperture library from my backup disk running Time Machine without loosing anything?

I am installing a larger harddrive on my Mac. Can I copy the Aperture library from my backup disk running Time Machine without loosing anything? I am getting help migrating everything else on to the new harddrive, but since copying the 350Gb Aperture library takes a lot of time, I am planning to do that part myself.

I found the following information on Time Machine help about restoring Aperture library from TM
Restoring Your Aperture System

Extracting the first page from all pdf's in a folder and save them to a new file

Hi,
As Bridge apparantly is unable to create a decent-looking PDF from a bunch of other PDF's, we're looking for alternative solutions. The problem is, that I haven't done much scripting in Acrobat.
Pseudocode:
Select Folder where PDF files are stored
Create list of PDF files
Get first page from each and add it to temporary new PDF
Save temporary new PDF in high quality
Would that be possible in Acrobat? And where would I start? I can't even find a Scripting Guide for Acrobat (like the ones for Illustrator and InDesign).. and there seems to be no sample scripts included either :-(
Thanks,
Thomas

This can be done using a combination of an Action and a script. The script in the Action will collect the paths of the files you want to process and the folder-level script will extract the first page from each file and generate a new PDF from it. You don't need a plugin for this task, so you don't really need the SDK.

How to extract the red layer from BayerRG8 file with VBAI?

Dear readers,
We're currentely trying to build a inspection program using a CVS and two cameras.
A first question to help us: How can we extract the red layer from a Bayer RG8 image?
To illustrate a lit bit more: lets take a picture of chilis and tomatoes plants. We would like to extract the red color of the picture to know where the vegetable are and if they are eatable.
So, in a first time, we just want to see the red layer of the picture.
On a second step, we would like to extract the poistion of the red areas and rank them according to intensities and store all the relevant data in a .txt file.
Thank in advance for the time you will spend on that topic.
Regards

Maybe including a picture with the info you want would help. It sounds like you could use a detect object step (which works with color images), and you could get the position of all red objects. I would also recommend using the Hue plane instead of the Red plane to look for color since this is more robust to lighting changes. Once you have the bounding box for each red object, you can create a programmatic ROI around it and use the Measure Color step to get detailed color information about your reb objects. Here's a sample inspection that uses colored candy to give you an example of what I'm suggesting. Let us know if more specifically what you are looking for if this doesn't help. The example is in VBAI 2012. Let us know what version of VBAI you are using because this may affect what functionality you can use.
Thanks,
Brad

It's says that file does not exist. How come? And why does it still show the image info.?
Where can i find those files (i have a daily backup)
The original image files are missing form your iPhoto library or iPhoto cannot find them, because the link to the originals has been broken. The image info is stored in the internal libraries, independent of the original files. That is, why you are still seeing them.
I restored the whole library from my backup.
Try restoring from an older backup, from before you first noticed the problem.
How large is the library, that you restored? Is the file size large enough to hold all your photos, or has the size been reduced? If the library is still large, the photos may still be inside, even if iPhoto cannot find them.
It's says that file does not exist. How come?
What happened, before your iPhoto library got deleted? Which applications have you been running, or which new software have installed or upgraded? Have you moved the library to a different disk or tried to use it from different user account or access it over the network?

Extract the Page Size from the Document Properties

I have multiple drawings of various sizes and need to extract the page size from the document properties of each drawing.
this.info object can be used to extract the title, author, subject etc of a document but there is no property shown for extracting the page size.
Can any one please advise a way of extracting the page size from the document properties of a file?
Any assistance will be most appreciated.
Once the page size can be extracted I will be using a script to place a stamp with onto the drawing depending on the page size.
Thank you.

Thank you for your help George.
I have used the getPageBox script as follows:
var aRect = this.getPageBox("Crop");
var width = aRect[2] - aRect[0];
var height = aRect[1] - aRect[3];
console.println("Page 1 has a width of " + width + " and a height of " + height);
The console reports back - Page 1 has a width of 1162 and a height of 814.
The actual drawing shows in the document properties page size as 40.988 x 28.713 cm.
Can you please advise why the getPageBox measurement is not reporting correctly?

Extracting the largest code from a specific section in the report

Post Author: MikeA-ICE

I have a report that has 8 sections, called Report Areas. Each area is limited by a range of codes (Group1). For the whole report the codes range from 01 to 93. There is one particular area in the report, Area 2, that spans 01 to 29. I need to extract the largest code from Area 2 but I never know from one time to the next when running the report what codes will be included. There could be any number of codes in a particular run of the report. I could have 1, 3,4,5, 7, 11, & 16 one time and 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 12, 21, 23, and 28 the next. I tried this formula:If {CBIRptTotalSummary.ReportArea} = 2ThenNthLargest (1, {CBIRptTotalSummary.Group1})This consistently printed 93 in Area 2 of the report since 93 is the largest code of Group1 in the report. I've tried numerous other formulas and I can't get Crystal to look only at the groups contained in Area 2 and tell me what the largest group is in that area. How would I accomplish this? Thanks very much for your help!!Mike

Do you group on ReportArea?If so, it's the maximum(Group1, ReportArea)

Go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. This will return it to its new out of the box condition. Go through the setup screens again and you will be given the option to restore from a previous iTunes or iCloud backup (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109).
