How to recover DB2 using offline file system backup.

Gurus,
I had a problem with my BI PRD's database. 1 of my BI consultant accidently deleted some important 2010's data. We've try recover online database backup of BWP into BWQ and retrieve the missing data. However the backup retention period was expired and we dont have any available online backup now.
Only hope is my offline file system backup which backup the whole file system of BWP ONLY.
My question:-
Can i restore the file system (offline backup) into BWQ and rebuild my DB2 in BWQ. Please enlighten me.
Thanks,
Devan.

Hi
You can do it .The file system backup image can be mirroed into production system and by making using of "db2inidb" utility you can restore the whole database.

    Anybody knows if the source code of scadm tool is available somewhere ? (opensolaris etc. ?)
    I don't have any additional advice to offer other than asking that you to try the flash-update all over again,
    one more time, as if it were the beginning again.Yes but how because the SC is not discovered anymore by Solaris :
    "rmclomv: WARNING: DP_GET_SDP_VERSION failed, ret=4"
    "The SC hardware could not be initialized."
    Can you try to flash the mainalomfw ? Your log contained only the flash of the alombootfw !
    /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/scadm download alommainfw
    I guess jumper JP2 allows to recover from a failed flash by selecting the un-touched half the PROM.It does not work as the SC is not responding anymore to Solaris
    Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.10 Generic January 2005

    v210:~# cd /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/images
    v210:/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V210/lib/images# /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/scadm download alommainfw
    scadm: The SC hardware could not be initialized.

    ERROR: ERROR: Unable to open the SC device.
    It's a pitty that obtaining OBP/ALOM updates requires a service contract. I got a V210 recently.
    Unfortunately both OBP and ALOM are the intial release 4.8.2 / 1.0.I agree but it's probably also because you need support in case it fails ;-)
    Thanks for your answers!

  • How to recover datafile.when control file auto backup is off

    hi friend
    i took hot backup of my database using following command
    rman>backup database;
    in my case controlfile auto backup is off.
    and i have lost my all controlfiles as well as datafiles except spfile.
    i have recovered control file using dbms_backup_restore package.
    know i am able to mount database using following command
    rman> startup mount;
    when i wrote following command
    rman> restore database;
    i got following error
    RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile name found to restore
    enven i have backup of datbase.
    can anybody tell me how to recover datafiles in this case.
    thanking you
    sohail

    hi,
    I think you might have a problem here as the error from RMAN is described in the following metalink note
    Doc ID: Note:100565.1
    You should change you backup script to be something like
    rman {
    backup database include current controlfile;
    do you have any earlier backups of your database?
    regards

  • Using old file system backup for Cloning

    I have taken an off-line backup of Oracle 11i (11.5.10.2) 15 days ago. Before taking backup of file system , I verified that all the latest Rapid Clone Patches are applied. No changes or patch work in APPL_TOP or DB has been done since that backup. Now I need to do cloning of this instance, how I can use this backup for Cloning.
    Rapid Clone scripts create and generate some files/directories so I am not sure whether my Old backup of file system will work or not. What is the best way to use old backup for cloning , also what are the file and directories in addition to the old backup of file system which I need to copy to Target System.
    Thanks for reviewing and suggestions.
    Samar

    Samar,
    If you have run preclone before backing it up, your backup should be valid for cloning.
    2.1 in the cloning doc has to be in the backup.
    These doc's should clear out yours doubts on cloning.

  • How to recover database using dbf file

    Hi all,
    My oracle database gets crash. But i have all the dbf file . But there is no controlfile,redo log file and pfile . So i have to create a database that will contain these existing dbf file.
    Can anyone tell what are the steps i have to follow ?
    Regards

    Does the datafiles comes from a cold backup or was database closed when disk crashed ?
    Well, what's your OS ?
    You need to write a new init.ora file, create the dba service if your under windows, and recreate the database with the command line, that will create controlfile and redolog.
    Nicolas.
    Argh, this is a Re: Lost database, and you already get answer into the other. Spending time here.

    Then we're back to (1): Do your own homework. Google has zillions of links on handling files in Java. When you have written some code and have an actual problem, we'll be happy to help you with it.
    (edit) Incidentally, this sounds suspiciously like the sort of problem they set for the certification programs. In which case, don't bother; they're not worth the virtual paper they're printed on.

  • How do I determine if my file system is case-sensitive before I buy Photoshop CS5?

    How do I determine if my file system is case-sensitive before I buy Photoshop CS5? I currently have Mac OSX 10.5.8 with an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and 4GB of Memory.. Adobe says the following requirements are needed..
    2GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
    1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with qualified hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card, 16-bit color, and 256MB of VRAM
    Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0
    I don't know if I have a "hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card" or "256MB or VRAM".. I've never heard of "VRAM" before and the last bullet points is just as confusing. The last thing I want to do is buy this program and discover my Mac Book is just a tad bit to old for it, I've already done that once with a video game.

    Disk Utility highlighting the drive or partition & clicking the blue Info icon may report it, but since I don't have Case Sensitive I can't tell for sure.
    A simple test would be to save a small txt doc as...
    test
    Then save to the place same as...
    TEST
    If both show on the Disk, then it is, if it asks to replace test with TEST then it isn't.

    Thanks a lot!

    Hello Tao,
    The parameter
       icm/HTTP/file_access_<xx>
    may help you to access the pictures without any db-access.
    The following two links may help you to understand the other possibilities as well.
    The threads are covering BSP, but it should be useful for WebDynpro as well.

    I need your help, PLEASE. How can to fix "NO MOUNTABLE FILE SYSTEM" error of my back up hard drive on Mountain Lion OS?

    Did you format the drive for Mac use before you tried to use it as a backup drive?
    Are you using Time Machine on the drive? You can't view the contents of its backup database and the only way to access the info is directly from the Time Machine app.

    please let me know if we can recover datafile using redolog file.
    As my database has no archive log mode ON.

    Hi,
    For your information: NOARCHIVELOG mode protects a database only from instance failure, not from media failure.
