How to restore/duplicate from old backup

Hi All,
RMAN Version : 10.2.0.4
Repository Version : 10.2.0.4
OS : AIX 6.1
Target Database : 10.2.0.4
I have set the RMAN retention policy to 10 days for my database say "BCMT1". I have duplicated this database successfully to "RTEST", but i have restored from backup within the recovery window period.
what if, i want to duplicate/restore backup which is older then 10days and which is marked obsoleted & deleted from RMAN repository but available on tape ?
Below is script to detele the obsolete backup:
run
crosscheck backup;
DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED BACKUP;
DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE RECOVERY WINDOW OF 10 days;
}Script to duplicate the database:
run
allocate channel DSK1 type DISK;
allocate auxiliary channel DSK2 type DISK;
set until time "to_date('09/24/10 17:00:00','MM/DD/YY hh24:mi:ss')";
DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO RTEST1;
}Below are configuration parameters:
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 10 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/oraclebackup/BCMT1/%F';
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/oraclebackup/BCMT1/%U' MAXPIECESIZE 4 G;
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION FOR DATABASE OFF; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM 'AES128'; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/u01/app/orapltp1/product/10.2/dbs/snapcf_BCMT1.f'; # defaultCan the catalog command be used to register the old backups with RMAN repository and then restore from those backups ?

Thanks for quick response...
Again one question.....
Since i have deleted the obsolete backups, that means this information is also gone from RMAN repository too.
Here is the Scenario:
1) I have backups available on disk from 23rd Sep 2010 To 2nd OCT 2010, So, i can easily restore/duplicate my database with in this time period. (RMAN repository have this information)
2) I have backups available on tape from 1st AUG 2010 To 1st 22nd Sep 2010. Now, if i need to restore/duplicate database to 26th Aug 2010. I have deleted the obsolete backups, so information gone from repository. How to proceed ?

I have music loaded from cd's. They were intact after each sync. After a iTune upgrade, I lost all the music at sync. Can I restore them from old backup in iCloud ?

I have music loaded from cd's. They were intact after each sync. After a iTune upgrade, I lost all the music at sync. Can I restore them from old backup in iCloud ?

Unless you'd signed up to iTunes Match then they won't be in the Cloud, only music purchased from iTunes (if you are in a country where music can be re-downloaded) will be there. Have you not still got it on your computer and/or on a backup which you can use to sync it back to the iPad ?

Please Help - restore iphone from old backup

Dear Applers,
i got very complectated case,
i use Apple iPhone 3G (3.1.3) & Mac Book Pro (iTunes 10)
i took backup for my phone at 12 pm, at 5 pm i deleted my messages by accident and when i connected my mobile to the computer to get back my things the computer automaticilty synced my mobile and took a new backup at 5 pm.
when i right click > restore, the computer show me that the last backup is at 5pm which is i dont want because it doesnt have my data, i want to be able to restore from the backup that i took earlier that day.
i tried to go to Users/ Library / Application Support / Mobile Backup and i found that my old files still their beside the new files
i tried to delete my new backup files from this directory so that way it take the backup before it. it didnt work .. it just deleted every thing
i really dont know what to do i feel like my data is here but i cant access it
Please Help,
Thanks

To be able to read the content of those files inside the backup folder, you'll have to use special software like "backup extractor" http://supercrazyawesome.com/ for example. But don't use the original folder to test, copy it to another place on your HD and use this copy to try.
Some files are not replaced when a backup is made, only files that changed in data are replaced, as far as I know.

How to restore Apps from icloud backup

Hi,
My first post here. I did some searching but couldn't find what I need so I am trying to ask it now directly.
My iPhone 3GS is shutting down when phone is busy like trying to open camera, trying to play a game, trying to check an email. It shuts down and when I tried to power On it says battery is drained. But when I charge, it will power on and battery is back to where it was when it shut down.
Did significant reading around here in community and i did see lots of suggestions to reset my phone.
First try, I backup my phone in iCloud (while charging otherwise it wont finish). Then I reset my phone and select reset all (erase all data)
Then I tried to restore from iCloud backup.
Result: problem still persist on a newly restored iPhone.
Second try. I reset once again and choose start as new.Seems I can now check my email without shutting down.
Now to my question. How can I restore my apps from my icloud back up one by one.I only want to restore apps that carries my important files like images, FileApp.
Question 2: Do I have to buy and pay all my app again?
Thanks

That is really sad . I guess I have to restore from backup and do all manual copies then reset again to make a fresh start.
I am once an iPhone fanatic that won't consider changing to other phones but now it seems that I have to reconsider.
I mean, it's great but "all or nothing" method is what apple is implementing from day 1. Like a basic example of iTune contents. Why cant you choose what to put on your computer/phone. Why does it has to delete all phone contents.
Anyway.. Thanks. At least now I know what to do now.

How to restore iPhone from previous backup

Hi all, I'm really hoping someone can help me. I tried updating the OS for my iphone thru iTunes. It backed up my phone,
then tried to do a restore (said time left was 19 hours - this lasted for about 7 hours before I unplugged the phone from computer).
I have located the last backup I would to be restored to my phone but when I plug my phone in to the computer and try to do a
'restore backup' it says the phone does not have any backups. iTunes does not recognize the last back up, how do I get it to recognize
it? I have lost everything off the phone and now it looks like a new phone to iTunes. HELP someone please!! Thank you!

When you activated and setup your new 5S, you should've had the option to restore from your backup.
If you have no data on your 5S - then go to settings - general - reset - erase all contents and settings - this will wipie your phone clean as new. Go thru the setup and you'll see restore from backup or set up as new, choose the icloud backup.

HT2966 I changed a repeating event and this ****** DELETED 10 events. How to restore this from timemachine backup?

On the iPhone you can change how many times an event is repeated. I changed that number from 10 to 11 and it automatically deleted all my 10 events and replaced the valuable notes with *nothing*.
I do daily backups with timemachine, but cant seem to find a way to restore the events - since I already made a lot of changes today.
next question: is there an ical alternative, which is actually safe to use for business?

For anyone else that may be in a similar situation, I can confirm that this does actually work.
I am unsure why I was not able to mount the original sparseimage that I copied to the USB drive before, but I have gone through the entire process again and I could successfully mount the TM sparseimage onto my MacBook and restore files from within it using TimeMachine to my Mac.
This is a Disaster Recovery solution only needed for if both my NAS and Macbook get stolen or damaged so I am happy with this solution for now.
I will try the restore process several more times from my monthly backups to reassure myself that the first failure to mount the sparse image was an anomaly.
This is the process that I have tested:
Configure MacBook to backup to TimeMachine Service running on QNAP NAS device.
Perform regular backup of QNAP NAS Device (Linux) including the TimeMachine backup data to an external USB drive with encryption enabled and store this device safely off-site
In time of loss of both NAS and MacBook, Time Machine data can be recovered to another Mac without the need of the NAS using the following process:
Mount the external drive containing the backup of the NAS filesystem (ext4) which is encrypted onto a Linux host so it is readable - use the cryptsetup luksOpen options to access the encrypted filesystem then mount it.
Mount a n empty HFS+ formatted USB drive on the Linux host
Use Rsync to copy the sparsebundle from the external NAS drive backup disk to the root of the USB Drive
Insert the HFS+ formatted USB containing the sparesbundle into the Mac's USB port
Double click the sparsebundle to mount it onto the Mac as a Volume
Using Alt button and the TimeMachine icon, select use alternative backup disk and you should see the TM backup in the sparsebundle
Enter TimeMachine and you should be able to restore any/all files
Hope that helps someone else and thanks to LaPastenague for pointing me in the direction of some of the answers I needed.

How to restore ipod from recent backup.

I just wiped out some of my ipod content when syncing and would like to restore my ipod from a previous backup. I am not sure how to do this. I clicked on the restore button and it tells me it is going to reset my ipod to factory settings. How do I tell it to restore to a previous backup?

Where Backups are stored
The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

How to restore files from a backup in windows 8.1

Hello
I did a Factory Image reset recently on my Windows 8.1 PC. I did a backup to an external drive of all my personal files before I did the Factory Image reset.
This backup is listed on the external hard drive as: "Backup files 2014-07-06"
THe properties of this is 322 GB -   765 files   - 17 folders.
THis cannot be all my files UNLESS they were compressed.
The reason i say this is that also on my extrenal hard drive is "Filehistory"
THe properties on FileHistory are: 1.45 TB   - 59,580 files - 765 folders.
I need to restore these files back to my C: drive
I am not confident that the Filehistory has all my files, BUT, since the Backup files 2014-07-06 is so much smaller
than my Filehistory , I do not know what to think.
I have attempted to restore the files from the Backup files 2014-07-06 but get errors that I do not have security clearance. I am the only user on this PC.
I am not very confident that everything is contained on the "FileHistroy" , but I don't really know.
Does anyone have experience with "Backup files' and "Filehistory" that can help me?
thank you!

Hello,
The backup file must have become inaccessible. I am not sure about the error message but it can because of virus infection in your PC that your files must have got damaged. If you are not able to restore backup file from File History, tehn you may try backup recvery software to recover data from it. Try this Windows backup recovery sofwtare - http://goo.gl/kYPP6J
It might help you.
Thanks.

How to restore Ipad from previous backup that is not the restore list?

I did a firmware update for Ipad from 5.1.1 to 6.1
I backup my Ipad before I did it at 4.46am
Then I restore my Ipad so it will install IOS 6.1
However I accidentally set it up as new device with a differrent name (default suggested by itune which is "AL's Ipad")
Then I try to select my previous backup called "Ipad 3"
But I cant see "Ipad 3" from my restore list.
So can I restore my "Ipad 3" backup?

If you went through the process of restoring your iCloud backup, then tapped Show Older Backups when asked which backup to restore to and the backup you're looking for isn't listed, there's no way to recover it. You could check to see if you have an older backup on your computer that would have the data you're looking for by opening iTunes and going to Setting>Devices and checking the Backups list.

Restored phone from old backup have i lost my new photos?

I was given a replacement iphone 4 because mine was stolen. After using the phone for a couple of weeks - and taking lots of photos on it - I plugged in my phone to my macbook in order to back up the new photos I had taken on the phone. While I was on itunes I was asked if I wanted to restore my old phone settings and install new software, and i said yes. It asked me if i wanted to carry on with this while the phone was synching with the computer and i said yes.
But then I saw photos from my OLD phone on my phone and also loading onto iphoto, with the computer asking if I wanted to download them.
I then couldn't find my NEW photos on my phone or on iphoto.
Have I lost the new photos?
I went into 'finder' on my computer, found 'backup; and can see hundreds of files, with the time that I was restoring my phone at same time as i was installing new software -
Are these files my new photos?
And how can i open them?
Thank you!

yes, you have. Restoring your phone from the other backup wiped out any previous data you had on your phone. Since you never backed up before, there's no way to get any of those data back.

How to Recover database from old backup and full archive log file

Hi Oracle expert!
I met problem when restore my oracle database.
In my case:
- My database version: 10.2.0.2

- I have all Archived log file from (01-Nov -> 05-Nov)
- My database drop in 05-Nov with disk error (no datafile, no redo..).
- I have no any RMAN backup from (01-Nov -> 05-Nov)
How can i restore my database to 05-Nov?
Thanks

Hi Chinar.
When i used RMAN flow as your step, but i met the problem!
- After recover database i select sequence#, applied from v$archived_log;
--> it apply newest archived log that i had.
- but when I select Data from table created between 01-Nov to 05-Nov, it not found!
Not the same way the step:
SQL> RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE UNTIL CANCEL?
It apply newest the same archived log i had table created between 01-Nov to 05-Nov.
How can i do with RMAN to recover my table?That is not possible,if your all available archive logs applied using rman or through sqlplus(recover database using backup controlfile until cancel) and one of these logs contain your table then there are not any problems.So there are not any difference between recovery using rman and user managed(using sqlplus),but there main matter is applying all archive logs.So first check through rman list copy of archivelog all or list backup of archivelog all and identify there in rman repository is any information or not about these logs.

How to restore "notes" from icloud backup

I was trying to clear data from my old computer (to give to my little sister), and I accidentally deleted all my "notes" from the "mail" program (not just from that computre, but even on the icloud apparently)!
Is there anyway to restore the notes back to my phone & new computer from my last icloud back up?

If you synced your iPhone with itunes.
to restore from a previous backup, be sure to go into iTunes before you
connect your iPod Touch or iPhone and set iTunes > preferences > devices
and check “prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically.This ensures we don’t erase the previously stored backup.
