How to configure RMAN

Hi,
I connected the oracle system through connect as / sysdba.  Please suggest me how to configure or connect to RMAN .
Regards,
Asif

Hello Asif,
are you aware, that if you are using RMAN manually - you don't get any support by SAP (check sapnote #105047 - Point 47)?
And if you don't know howto connect to RMAN, i highly recommend "Don't do it manually!"
The RMAN implementation in BR*Tools is explained very well:

    hi
    what is SBT here?
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE sbt PARALLELISM 3;
    Channel Connections to Cluster Instances with RMAN
    Channel connections to the instances are determined
    using the connect string defined by channel configurations.
    For example, in the following configuration, three channels are allocated using dbauser/pwd@service_name. If you configure the SQL Net service name with load balancing turned on, then the channels are allocated at a node as decided by the load balancing algorithm.
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE sbt PARALLELISM 3;
    CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO sbt;
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE SBT CONNECT 'dbauser/pwd@service_name'Edited by: nisha on Jun 6, 2011 12:27 AM

  • How to configure RMAN - Oracle EBS R12

    Hi,
    I have installed Oracle EBS R12 on OEL 5.6 and want to configure Backup strategy for Database. Database Version is 11.1.0.7. Currently Database is in Noarchivelog mode and want to take backup of database using RMAN. Can anyone guide me what are the steps to follow in order to achive that ?
    Regards,
    Priyanka

    You can use RMAN to take backup in noarchive log mode.However you will be able to take cold backup only.
    Use this,
    RMAN> run {
    shutdown immediate;
    startup mount;
    backup database;
    alter database open;
    Note:
    RMAN does not permit you to make inconsistent backups when the database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode. If you employ user-managed backup techniques for a NOARCHIVELOG database, then you must not make inconsistent backups of this database.

    if thier is anything else that i am missing please let me know .thanks

    we dont need to do anything to use rman in windows but how can i use rman in linux?Same way. Once Oracle is installed and Database is created you don't need anything else, simply run it, for example :

  • Configuring rman for dataguard environment.

    Hi all,
    Here we have a dataguard environment with db1 as primary and db2 as physical standby database. We configured dataguard in 10g environments and we are not using grid control. Can anyone provide the steps for configuring rman for incremental backups in this environment? We want to schedule the backups to be taken in standby db, (that is applicable in case of swithover too). In the case of swithover to db2 what all do we need to do in rman manually to resume backups in db1?
    Thanks

    Hello;
    A Standby database is a copy of the Primary so if you try to register it RMAN will probably tell you its already registered. I would start with this :
    Standby based backup
    1. Enable auto backup of the control file and server parameter file. CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON.
    2. Skip backups on datafiles already backup. CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION.
    3. Set the archive deletion policy. CONFIGURE DELETION POLICY TO NONE.
    You have to decide on the exact RMAN script you want to use, but since the database is registered you can perform backup on either the Primary or the Standby as the need arises.
    See "Using RMAN to Back Up and Restore Files" in "Data Guard Concepts and Administration 10g Release 2 (10.2) B14239-05"
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/rman.htm

  • Configuring RMAN for dataguard.

    Hi all,
    Here we have a dataguard environment with db1(db_unique_name) as primary and db2(db_unique_name) as physical standby database. For both primary and secondary the ORACLE_SID is 'oracledb'.We configured dataguard in 10g environments and we are not using grid control. And now we want to configure rman for incremental backups. We are using a third catalog database to which we registered from primary db successfully. During primary rman configuration it is showing conflicts. Even the changes made in primary RMAN configuration are applied on to the standby too which i think shouldn't happen in this scenario. How to resolve this issue? Is this happening because of the same ORACLE_SID for both primary and secondary? I'm attaching the link of the doc that we followed also the errors and configuration in rman. Can anyone help?

  • Configuring rman channel

    hi,
    while taking backup we are configuring channels based on cpu's right?
    so, how i can fine no. of cpu's on my machine and how many channels can allocate per cpu.

    If you don't know how to retrieve the number of CPUs on your server, you are probably not the right person to configure RMAN backups :-)
    Jokes aside: Number of CPUs is not the only factor to estimate the number of channels. Isn't one channel fast enough for your backup? Do you backup to tape or disk? Do you backup during end user activity? What kind of storage (RAID, ASM, Number of Drives) are you using? How big is your database? What is your time window for the backup?
    That is a list of factors to take into account that I think of first.
    Kind regards

  • How to move rman backups on tap from disk

    Hi,
    I have rman backup files on the disk, now how we can move these files to tap. is there any rman command or is there any script to move.
    Thank you!

    Do you use FRA (Flash recovery area)?
    If you use FRA then configure RMAN to take backup to tape. And backup fra to tape.
    RUN
    ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch0 TYPE ‘SBT_TAPE’;
    BACKUP RECOVERY AREA;
    RELEASE CHANNEL ch0;
    If you don't use FRA then you can backup your backupsets which are on the disk to tape.

  • How to configure oracle listener profile for multiple oracle database

    Hi,
    I am going to install solution manager system in the same server of ERP EHP4 on Windows. Both DB are oracle.
    I'd like to know how to configure listener in this kind of envirnmonent.
    a. use two listener and different ports
    b. use same listener but different ports
    c. use same listener and same port
    Which is the correct mothed?
    And, after installation, there seem three set of profiles of listten, one for ERP, one for SLM, and the other for OS?(%windir%system32), which one is functional?
    Please advise.
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    Alex

    Hi,
    standard installation is creating new configs for listener for each instance.
    I would recommend to use one listener per each instance.
    YOU CAN NOT HAVE one port number for two differnet systems!
    If you want to use one listener than you must adapt tnsnames.ora, listener.ora and ensure that both systems will use different port numbers.
    For example PORT= 15<system number>

  • How to configure one TREX host with multiple index servers ?

    Hi All,
    Does anyone know how to configure TREX on the one host,
    with multiple index servers ?
    Reason for this is to make better use of resources available on the host server(4 Gig, 4 Processor, Windows2003), to improve the search performance of
    our KM content for portal users.
    I am using TREX 7 and have not been able to do this,
    despite reading the Single and Distributed install
    documentation.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Andres

    Hi Andres,
    To make use of the RAM a Server provides you have to run two indexserver processes (each can then consume 2 GB);
    Proceed like this:
    1. Go to TREXdeamon.ini; check if section [indexserver2] is there (it is already provided, but not active in standard installation)
    2. In TREXdeamon.ini go to
    [daemon]
    references sections below
    programs=nameserver,preprocessor1,indexserver1,queueserver,alertserver
    and add indexserver2 here. Restart TREX; second porcess is then started; can be checked in TREX monitor in Portal as well
    3. To distribute existing indexes to the new process, start TREXadmintool and go to Index: Landscape
    Go to the last two columns and move the indexes (move master here/secondary mouse click)
    If you don't distribute the indexes the new index server process will be regarded when an new index is created.
    Hope this helps!
    cheers

  • How to configure request manager service for multiple website in one web application

    I have set up sp 2013 as below:
     web application : wa1
    site collection : sc1
    sp site: site1, site2
    I used 2 WFE, 1 APP, how can I use request manager service to control  site1 to wfe1, site2 to wfe2?
    Awen

    That's not what i'd describe as load balancing.
    A better description would be load-isolation. In your description then if the load on site1 was large (and growing) but site2 was quiet then site1 would struggle and eventually become unable to handle the number of users but site2 would still be ok. That's
    fine from a QOS point of view but it's not the norm for load balancing. It would work in simple scenarios but the out of the box load balancing tools are much better suited than that sort of approach.

  • How to configure 3 different members under a single Month column

    Hi SAP Gurus,
      My client requirement is to show the report in following format, where under a Month column 3 different columns having
    1) Quantity (Number of unit ) of a product,
    2) its rate (Amount per unit), and
    3) Total (amount)    will appear in a single report.
       I have Month as a Time Dim, while Qty, Rate and Total are members of account dim.
    Que: How to configure such scenario in a single report?
    Jan.2011
    Product Category:            Qty (Input)   Rate (Input)   Total (Output)                    
    Product 1                                               
    Product 2                                             
    Product 3                                             
    Product 4

         Where: Total = Qty X Rate                                        
    Thanks and Regards,
    SouarbhD

    Hi,
    Use an EVDRE to create your input schedule. You need to have one row with products and 2 columns with time and account. Choose the memberset options as per the requirement. For the accounts, is total calculated with a dimension formula? If yes, then you just need to enter the values for quantity and rate and send the data. The total will be calculated by the system and will be displayed automatically.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to configure an Alert message if communicationChannel(JMS) stops

    All,
    Is there a way how to configure an alert when the communication channel stops.
    <b>Scenario:</b>
    In the path Runtime workbench->Component Monitoring->Adapter Engine->Communication Channel monitoring, if we see that a communication channel has stopped(RED traffic light as Status), then can we trigger an alert notification for same.
    Currently we have alrerts configured for any message/s failure in the JMS Adapter Framework. So can we trigger simmilar alerts when a comm channel stops(for whatever reason).
    Thanks in advance
    RK

    Hi Sreeram,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
    We have a scenario where we activate individual channels at a given time. So in this case, Adapter will always be in RED as all queues are never running in our scenario.
    So we need an ALERT to be triggered for individual comm channels. Is theer any way that you can think of ?
    Thanks and regards

  • How to configure multiple IP addresses on one NIC?

    Hi,
    I just installed a OVM Server in version 3.2.1 and the according VMManager. Now i wanted to try to configure the Server/Server Pool. Now i come across a problem, which was already a big problem in OVM 2 while configuring the Networks.
    All our OVM Servers have three NICs in them. One is for VMs and Management, the others are for connection to our SAN (Dell PowerVault MD 3220i). My problem is, that due to the network setup, the two NICs for storage need two IP addresses in two different networks each. This shouldn't be a problem, because usually in linux all you have to do is configure something like eth1:1. I remember having huge trouble configuring it in our OVM 2 cluster up to the point where I had to write a shell script to configure the second IP.
    Anyways, I have configured two of the storage networks on eth1 and eth2 of the VM Server. Now i cannot configure any more IP addresses, because eth1 and eth2 are not available anymore for configuration in a third network. I really hoped that it would be possible in OVM 3 to configure multiple IP addresses. And probably it is only my lack of knowledge of how to configure it.
    So any advice is well appreciated.
    Thanks!
