Load rman backup on another instance

Hi All,
I am relatively new to Oracle and now I have to devise a strategy for backups and recovery. My objective is to backup the production database regularly in such a way that one month down the line I am able to load it on another instance. I have been trying to read up on the subject, but looks like it can be loaded only on the same instance.
Any thoughts how can this be achieved.
Thanks
Sanjay

Hi Pierre,
Looks like rman duplicate database command only supports creation of duplicate database on a instance that exists at the time. I am looking for something that can be archived on to disk/tape and when required restored on a database instance. I come from Sybase background, where we just dump (or backup) a database copy and restore it on to another server and database. I have tried dumping schema using both datapump and exp, but both have problems while restoring on another server. Datapump does not support XMLtype data and imp has problem restoring some views.

Recovery of RMAN backup in third instance

Hi,
is it possible for RMAN to create backups and use these backups to recover the database
in another instance.
For example as a disaster recovery. Is it possible to use the RMAN backups to create a new instance
with the data created by the RMAN backup.
Short answer, perhaps with doc link, is very welcome. Thanks

Short Answer : Yes, Of Course !

RMAN Backup on another server

Hi,
I am using oracle database 11g, and I am taking RMAN backup in the same server.
But now I need this RMAN backup to be saved on another server.
I created one database directory, but it did not work with me, since it cannot see the location.
I used the same idea with export file to another server and it worked.
But with RMAN directory it could not work !!!.
So any idea about this ?
Thanks and Best Regards.

Rman backup to another server

Hello!
This is the scenario:
I have a primary database(oracle 10g) and a standby database, created using Rman.
Is there a way to backup the standby database and transfer the backup to another server, so I can have the database in a third server that is neither primary nor standby.
Thank in advance!

Hi user10385894,
Is there a way to backup the standby database and transfer the backup to another server?Yes you can copy the backup pieces from the standby side to the third server and copy a controlfilecopy from the primary and register the backup pieces.
Followed by a restore.
Do you happen to have a catalog than even a duplicate can be done easely?

Tycho

Restore RMAN from different Database Rman backup

Hi Everybody
I am practicing Rman so I have one query that how to restore rman backup from another database.
For Example :
1. I have Rman backup of DB1 with level 0 and level 1 cumulative database plus archievelog
2. I need to import or restore Rman backup of DB1 to another database DB2.
What is the procedure for doing the above queries. Please anyone one help me out.
I have using oracle 10g r2 running in windows server 2003.
Thanks in advance.

These are the steps ; you need to write the appropiate commands for each step: Hope it helps!
1) Take appropriate RMAN backup of the database db1. Note that you should turn on the CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP configuration so that we have the controlfile backed up after the database backup. When we restore the controlfile on new host from this autobackup piece, it will have the information of the latest backup.
2) Create a PFILE for the destination database db2 using the database db1
3) Move the backup pieces and the modified INIT.ORA file to the new host. Starting from 10g it is NO longer compulsory to copy the RMAN backup pieces to exactly the same location on the new host as the production location.
4) Use the pfile created above to STARTUP NOMOUNT the database on the new host
5) Now invoke RMAN and restore the controlfile specifying the location where the controlfile autobackup piece is restored on this new server. You can mount the database once the controlfile is restored successfully.
6) You can skip this step if you have restored the RMAN backup pieces to exactly the same location they were backed up on database db1. If this is not the case then you need to catalog the RMAN backup pieces to make RMAN aware of thier new location on the new host. Note that CATALOG BACKUPPIECE command is available only starting from 10g.
7) Having determined the point up to which media recovery should run, start the restore/recovery using for example:
RMAN> run {
2> set until sequence 59 thread 1;
3> set newname for datafile 1 to '/new_location/system01.dbf';
4> set newname for datafile 2 to '/new_location/undotbs01.dbf';
5> set newname for datafile 3 to '/new_location/sysaux01.dbf';
6> set newname for datafile 4 to '/new_location/users01.dbf';
7> restore database;
8> switch datafile all;
9> recover database;
10> }

RMAN backup time increased

Hi All,
I need details about some diagnostic test regarding RMAN backup on my instance.
The following are the current configuration of details:
SQL> select release_name from fnd_product_groups;
RELEASE_NAME

NLSRTL Version 9.2.0.8.0 - Production
===============================================
Database Size
1.5 TB
Earlier the RMAN backup used to take 20 -23 hours, now for the last 2 months, it has started taking 40 hours.
We want to identify the reason behind the increase in time.
Please let us know methods that we can use to diagnose the root cause.

RMAN backup restoration on a different server under ASM .

Hello Experts,
This is regarding new installation of Oracle RAC 11gR2 on AIX 6.1 . Its a two node cluster setup , using ASM . As i am newbie for RMAN , I would like to know how i can restore my rman backup to another uat server which has standby database again cofigured under asm .
Thanks for your kind help .

Hi ,
Thanks for reply
1) I performed the full database backup on source .
2) Source (prod) and target remote database (uat) are in ASM and have same DG for datafiles .
3) I have transfered the backup from production to UAT . I have already running uat database
do i need to drop it before i start the restoration ? My final purpose is just to refresh target with production backup . Kindly advice the steps from here to proceed with .
Thank you

Im new to RAC & ASM, What will be the changes
What will be steps involved into it.
Thanks

Hello,
Refer this MOS doc *HowTo Restore RMAN Disk backups of RAC Database to Single Instance On Another Node [ID 415579.1]*
On the Single Instance ASM, you need to specify the diskgroup name for the parameters "control_files, db_create_file_dest"

Import data backup into another DB instance

Hello all.
I need to import a Data Backup into Another Database instance. MaxDb version 7.3.
On higher versions of MaxDb I performed this operation without any problems (http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/43/d5ebc2c9ed3ab3e10000000a422035/frameset.htm).
For this version of MaxDB I have such problem:
the commands don't coincide with help description, I define backup template, transfer DB instance to admin state, open utility session and try to srart recovery (there is no command db_activate RECOVER <template>)
dbmcli on Q46>util_connect
OK
dbmcli on Q46>recover_start DEMO
ERR
-24988,ERR_SQL: sql error
-903,Message not available,blockcount mismatch
What I can do? How can I start recover from data backup from another DB on this version of MaxDB?

I have tried to perform backup of original system and recovery to another database one more time.
There is the another error:
dbmcli on Q46>recover_start DemoD46_recover

Can I plug in (restore) an RMAN tablespace backup into another DB ?

11.2.0.3/AIX 6.1
We accidently dropped a development DB without taking the latest expdp backup of an important schema. All the objects on this schema belonged to only one tablespace and we have the RMAN backup of that tablespace. Is there anyway we could recreate that schema by restoring the tablespace backup into another database ?

Yes.
Use the TRANSPORT TABLESPACE feature/method :
http://oracle.su/docs/11g/backup.112/e10643/rcmsynta2021.htm
Also check out sys.dbms_tts.transport_set_check
RMAN> transport tablespace emp_data, emp_data2
tablespace destination '/u01/app/oracle/oradata'
auxiliary destination '/u04/app/oracle/oradata';If you need to check your endian format use this query :
SELECT
PLATFORM_NAME,
ENDIAN_FORMAT
FROM
V$TRANSPORTABLE_PLATFORM;http://www.fadalti.com/oracle/database/how_to_transportable_tablespaces.htm

allocate channel t1 type disk;
backup database plus archivelog delete input format 'D:\Backup\ORACLE\LIVE\df_t%t_s%s_p%p';
backup current controlfile;

You need to use "set newname" before you restore your database.
You can refer this http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmdupad.htm
RMAN> connect target /
connected to target database: TEST (DBID=2033933270)
RMAN> run
2> {
3> startup nomount;
4> restore controlfile from 'location/DF_T770331608_S104_P1';
5> alter database mount;
6> restore database;
7> recover database;
8> alter database open resetlogs;
9> }Also, you have connected to the database TEST, so is the TEST database the new database that you want to create using restore method ?
If yes, then how the status of the database is OPEN ? The database status should be nomount before you restore the controlfile.
If the database is not started, then:
RMAN shows as "connected to target database: TEST (not started)
If the database is in nomount stage, then
RMAN shows as "connected to target database: TEST (not mounted)
If the database is in mount stage, then
RMAN shows as "connected to target database: TEST (DBID=xxxxxxxx, not open)
If the database is open mode, then
RMAN shows as "connected to target database: TEST (DBID=xxxxxx)
In the output you mentioned, RMAN is showing the status of the database as opened. So if TEST is the database you are creating, then it has to be in nomount stage. In your case, it looks like TEST is the primary database from which you have taken the backup.

Restoring a RMAN backup to a new database instance

Hi Mates,
I have an issue with restoring a RMAN backup that i have with me to a new database instance. What i have with me are:
1. Backup of SPFile. (O1_MF_NCNNF_CTLFILE_BU_92DVGYO2_.BKP)
2. Backup of Control file (O1_MF_NNSNF_SPFILE_BU_92DVGW9H_.BKP)
3. Full database backup (O1_MF_NNSNF_FULLPROD_BU_92DVGW9H_.BKP)
I have received these files from a customer environment and I need to restore these to a new database instance in a local machine. I have given a attempt as follows (in Oracle 10g):
1, Created a new database instance (Test75) using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant
2. SET ORACLE_SID = Test75
3. Connected to this instance using RMAN
4. Tried to restore the SPFILE from the received BKP file.
I am getting errors and cannot proceed. I am not sure whether I am executing the correct steps. Please help me out by telling me how should I achieve this.
Thank you.

1. Backup of SPFile. (O1_MF_NCNNF_CTLFILE_BU_92DVGYO2_.BKP)
2. Backup of Control file (O1_MF_NNSNF_SPFILE_BU_92DVGW9H_.BKP)
The first backuppiece looks like a ControlFile and the second one looks like an SPFILE'
>I am getting errors and cannot proceed
What is the error ? (I assume that you tried to restore the SPFILE from O1_MF_NNSNF_SPFILE_BU_92DVGW9H_.BKP
Note that you also have to SET DBID before you restore the controlfile
