Hello RMAN backup problem.....

Hi there,
We are haveing a setup of Windows Server 2003 with Oracle 10g Rel2 and Veritas NetBackup Ver 5 MP 5 is being used to trigger the backup. On 1st of July 2007, backup failed for the first time. Error was RMAN-06059:expected archived log not found, lost of archived log compromises recoverability. No one paid attention then, I am looking into the same last couple of days.
I have certain questions.... as I am not big on RMAN.
1) Is it possible to have an RMAN backup without RMAN repository.
2) I have taken RMAN backup with having a separate repository and having a catalog to the database to be backed up.
3) I do not find any rman repository over here, so this point one comes into picture.
4) If it is possible how to synchronize the archived logs.
5) start the rman backup again.
Please help.

Hi Alanm,
I was away for few days. Thanks for the update, that it is possible. In this senario please tell me the exact steps how to do. So that I can implementing the same as a backup procedure.
When I said that it should have been supported with the current setup, which is using VERITAS backup procedure and has a policy for bakup. As we do not have a RMAN repository I wanted to figure out how to resync archive logs that are missing from its location to the VERITAS.
I want to take a full RMAN backup with current archived logs as starting point. Also I will like to give backup set name as I want to. Which I think is possible.
So lets ignore the sync part. Please write to me as to how should should I start RMAN without its repository.
Please do reply.
Thanks
Shiva

  • RMAN backup problems, which one first?

    Oracle 11g on Windows 2008Std I've inherited. It has a nightly backup job set in Ent Mgr, the Oracle-suggested disk backup, script:
    allocate channel oem_disk_backup device type disk;
    recover copy of database with tag 'ORA\$OEM_LEVEL_0';
    backup incremental level 1 cumulative copies=1 for recover of copy with tag 'ORA\$OEM_LEVEL_0' database;
    The backup fails every night with log:

    ORA-19809: limit exceeded for recovery files
    ORA-19804: cannot reclaim 52428800 bytes disk space from 2147483648 limit
    I see the space limit error. The database is defined with flash_recovery_area 2GB. So I should just enlarge the flash_recovery_area to make the backup work. BUT the real puzzler before I go making changes is, this database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode. What I find in the books say don't do incremental backups in NOARCHIVELOG mode; and don't do NOARCHIVELOG unless you don't care much about being able to recover your data. So, not being able to ask the guy who set this up, "Why is it NOARCHIVELOG, especially when set for incremental backups, I pose these here:
    1. Switch to ARCHIVELOG?
    2. Enlarge flash_recovery_area to get these backups working first?

    You can do incremental backups in noarchivelog mode - it's just that the database must be in mount mode. But I agree - unless the data is not important (and if you are taking backups then it seems to be important) I would have the database in archivelog mode.

  • RMAN backup problme becasue of TSM

    I Joined one call today , topic was RMAN backups problem because of TSM, I am wondering what is TSM, i guess Tivoli Storage manager...Not sure, and how it can effect RMAN Backup & its performance...Just trying to get general idea....

    Yes, TSM is Tivoli Storage Manager which is IBM's backup/recovery/storage management product. RMAN needs a media manager interface to write to tapes, this is where TSM comes into play. It acts as this media manager passing off the data to write to tape. This is made possible via a library which TSM provides (an Oracle library link file is replaced with one pointing to the TSM library file) to inform RMAN of it's presence and enable it's use. There are also configuration settings (network timeout, throughput, client name, media server name, etc.) which to a great deal affect the performance of RMAN and TSM to the extent where backups may not be possible if setup incorrectly.
    For more information you can look at the IBM site.
    Hope this helps.

  • Problem with .cmd/batch file, while scheduling RMAN backup

    I am running Oracle 10g on Windows. I Have written RMAN Backup script & saved it as .cmd file. Now i will schedule this via AT utility on windows. While i try to run this .cmd file then after starting RMAN it does nothing, neither RMAN gets connected to target database nor backup gets started. What may be the problem??
    Contents of .cmd file are like this:-
    RMAN target 'sys/manager@test'
    backup database include current controlfile;
    backup archive log;

    RMAN target 'sys/manager@test'
    backup database include current controlfile;
    backup archive log;will not work. You are passing 3 different commands to the Windows command interpreter. CMD executes the first command 'RMAN target ...@test" and waits for it to complete before it will proceed to attempt to execute the "backup database".
    That is, the "backup database" command isn't being passed to RMAN at all.
    You should put the two "backup" commands in a script file (as you would do for an SQLPlus script file) -- eg backup.rmn and execute it with rman
    eg
    rman target 'sys/manager@test'  @backup.rmn

  • RMAN backup job showing problems

    We have scheduled RMAN backup jobs for Oracle full backups & incremental level 0 & level 1 backup. Among the recent status for jobs, I have found problems for incremental 0 backup for 2nd Dec ’13 and incremental 1 backup for 6th Dec’13. I would elaborate as below:

    Hi,
    You should look at your systems logs (/var/log/messages on linux, errpt on AIX) to see which error you have exactly at the OS level.
    As Sybrand_b said, it is an error while writing a block on disk, so either a filesystem full or a corrupted block on disk.
    Do you have additional error message like follows?
    OSD-04008: WriteFile() failure, unable to write to file
    O/S-Error: (OS 112) There is not enough space on the disk

  • Problem in recovery from RMAN backup in case of disk failure

    Hi
    I have Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 on Windows. Full Hot RMAN backup of database is scheduled on daily basis. I am taking backup on disks. And then i do manually copy them on tapes. If any disk failure occurs than can i recover database completely in this scenario. If tried restoing that backup on different machine as given below
    set ORACLE_SID=<name>
    rman target sys/<pwd>@ORACLE_SID nocatalog
    startup nomount
    restore spfile
    create pfile from spfile
    startup nomount pfile
    alter database mount
    restore database
    Everything worked fine till above steps. Now i will execute last step.
    recover database
    Here it gives error:-RMAN-06054: media recovery requesting unknown log: thread 1 scn 264750
    Still i typed
    alter database open resetlogs
    Now i can open my database, But is it recovered completely? Or there is loss of some data? Why it is giving this error?
    Thanks in advance. Waiting for reply.

    I can understand the confusion with this whole concept.
    What I meant by all archivelogs is all the archivelogs that were backed up with the backup itself. Again, it is essential to ensure that you archive the current redo log AFTER the backup is performed and then back those archivelogs too. Good thing is, RMAN will take care of this for you if you backup the archivelogs with the BACKUP DATABASE command and/or backup the archivelogs AFTER you run the BACKUP DATABASE command.
    Once you've mounted the controlfile and CATALOG the archivelogs, you can go into SQL*Plus and issue the following query:
    select SEQUENCE#, FIRST_CHANGE#, NEXT_CHANGE# from v$archived_log
    order by FIRST_TIME;This will tell you what archivelog is the latest. Logs generated during the backup may also provide the necessary information. Performing Disaster Recovery should help to understand the full process.
    The ONLINELOG directory in FRA is only populated if you've configured your redo logs to be stored there. However, you are on 9i...right? If so 9i doesn't utilize a FRA.

  • Can RMAN backup and export datapump executed at the same time?

    Hello,
    I have several databases that I backup using RMAN and export datapump everynight starting at 6PM and end at Midnight. The backup maintenance window doesn't give me enough time for each database to run at different time. I am using crontab to schedule my backups. Since I have so many databases that need to be backed up between 6PM - Midnight, some of the export and RMAN backup scripts will execute almost at the same time. My question is can my export data pump and RMAN backup scripts run at the same time?
    Thank you in advance.
    John

    Needs must. If you don't run expdp parallel then it doesn't use that much. If it was really killing the system then look into setting up a Resource plan that knocks that user down but this is a big step.
    I woud better look into using Rman
    system incrementals, and block change tracking, to minimize your RMAN time.
    Regards
    If your shop needs to do both simultaneously then go for it.
    Chris.
    PS : One of my shops has maybe 20-30 rmans and pumps all kicking off some simultaneous, some not, from 0000 to 0130. No complaints from users and no problems either. Go for it.

  • Create a database from 32bit rman backup with NEW name on a 64bit system

    Hello,
    i'm more programmer than database admin but i need to set up a 10gR2 apex development server based on our productive instance in a short time.
    For that i want to use a rman backup of the productive machine (SLES 10 32bit, DB10GR2+ASM, APEX 3.1).
    Because of the less time i got, i want to use an existing machine (SLES 11 64bit, DB10GR2+ASM) as destination.
    On this machine i want to create a new instance from the backup i took. I Already read note 881395.1 but i'm quite unsure about 2 things
    a) It's VERY IMPORTANT that the development instance has another name than the productive instance.
    When i follow 881395.1 and set the enviromental variable ORACLE_SID to another new name. Will this be all? Or will there be problems using another SID because of references in the controlfile or sth. like that?
    b) It's VERY IMPORTANT that the datafiles aren't stored in the same path and with the same names as the productive instance. It is another server but there is already a copy of the database (our dba tried to set up a standby solution on this machine) and i don't want to bother this!
    How can i rename the datafiles before restoring the backup from scatch?
    I found this: set newname for datafile 1 to '<filesystem based filename>';
    Will this help? Do i need to rename every single file? Or is it possible to set a path in which all datafiles will be restored?
    c) What about the 32bit to 64 bit thing? Will this work? Or do i need to convert the database? How? RMAN Convert?
    Or could RMAN convert anyhow used to realize the whole thing?
    Thank you very much for your support!

    The problems seems like the Bug 9068033: RMAN BACKUP FAILED INTERMITTENT ORA-19501 ORA-2706, or bug 8510426 but I can't see any solution in metalink and this bug probably aplies to 10g and not 11g.
    Can you please help me out?
    Thank you.

    The errors look like problems in the I/O system, I don't think there's block corruption from Oracle's point of view. Nevertheless you may check which object owns block 28544 in datafile +DG/prd.dbf.
    select file_id from dba_data_files
    where file_name = '+DG/prd.dbf';
    SELECT SEGMENT_NAME, SEGMENT_TYPE
    FROM DBA_EXTENTS
    WHERE FILE_ID = <file_id from above>
    AND 28544 BETWEEN block_id AND block_id + blocks;
    It may be the block belongs to nothing, but there's still a physical defect. I remember a problem where RMAN complained about a bad block, but no issues in the database business. The reason no object owned this block, so the database did never access it.

  • RMAN backup using OSB too slow

    Hi all,
    We are exploring Oracle Secure Backup in our environment as legato networker alternative. But RMAN backup in OSB is very slow due to sbt wait event(sbtwrite2). it can backup 5GB/hour. We think this not normal behavior. we have checked network throughput between media server and client server. It can send 50 GB data by 30 min.Could you please help us to resolve the problem.

  • Rman backup with a missing archivelog.

    hello,
    I backed my database up yesterday after you guys helped me fix few problems I had on it. I used RMAN with the following command in a run block:
    *run {*
    allocate channel t1 type disk;
    backup current controlfile ;
    backup database;
    backup archivelog all delete input;
    release channel c1;
    At the end of the operation, RMAN indicates that and archivelog is missing and it couldn't find it. As a result, recover operation can be compromised. Now am confused because I do not know whether the command executed successfully or not and how to fix the missing archivelog.
    Below is the entire output of the operation along with error message:

    Here's my nderstanding and please correct me if am wrong:
    The first 3 instructions of the run block executed successfully, but
    the last one didn't. Is that so?
    Whatever the understanding, do I have a backup? WHat can I do to have a consistent backup?
    Thanks in advance.

    Adomi,
    It is sad to see you are still running RMAN in 8i fashion where you are on 10g.
    The script is bs, sorry
    run {
    allocate channel t1 type disk; -- not required
    backup current controlfile ; -- not required, as this is already done by backup database
    backup database;
    backup archivelog all delete input;
    release channel c1; -- not required.
    If you have controlfile autobackup on, you could just
    backup database plus archivelog
    and be done with it.
    As you didn't make a RMAN backup from the start, your backup archivelog statement should have read
    backup archivelog all skip inaccessible delete input;
    Once that succeeds Oracle shouldn't need the archivelog anymore, and you should make a second backup without the skip inaccessible clause.

  • Rman backup with corrupted block

    Hello,
    Firstly - I have problem on non-production database 11.2.0.1.0, so I am not deeply worried about data. But I need to understand what happened with database backups and how to prevent such things in future.
    So - I have EM scheduled weekly full backup and daily incremental backups. Later there was problem with hardware and some corrupted blocks in database were found. The weekly backup ran without error and obsolete backups were deleted. Now it is not possible to "recover corruption list" because no backup without corruption exists (RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 6 found to restore). I am not worried about the lost data, but I need to find out how come the backup contains corrupted block.
    I have checked the data file using dbv utility
    DBVERIFY - Verification starting : FILE = /opt/oracle/oradata/orcl/users03.dbf
    DBV-00200: Block, DBA 27525766, already marked corrupt

    Highest block SCN            : 2156227446 (1.2156227446)As you can see the datafile 6 - user03.dbf has errors. Also backups now contain errors.
    1) So how is it possible that the EM scheduled backup ran without problems and the backup now contains corrupted blocks. How to prevent this in future ? I know there is setting MAXCORRUPT. How can I check its current value ? How can I configure it using EM scheduled backups ?
    2) Secondly, meanwhile I studied the RMAN commands. So I have suspended EM backup jobs, and executed follwing command. And backup ran without error again. How is this possible, if data file users06.dbf has corrupted block ?
    Thanks !
