Need immediately script for Restore Datafiles from TAPE  Please.

Hi All,
Could you please provide me the script to restore 10 datafiles using RMAN which are stored on tape.

Hi!
1. Restore the whole database:
run {
allocate channel t1 type "sbt_tape" parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/path/to/your/client/tdpo_file)';
restore database;
release channel t1;
2. Restore a tablespace: (In the Example the USERS tablespace will be restored)
run {
allocate channel t1 type "sbt_tape" parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/path/to/your/client/tdpo_file)';
restore tablespace users;
release channel t1;
3. Restore a datafile: (In the example teh datafile number 5 will be restored)
run {
allocate channel t1 type "sbt_tape" parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/path/to/your/client/tdpo_file)';
restore datafile 5;
release channel t1;
In the above examples:
- you need to change the location of your TDPO config file.
- the database/tablespace/datafile will be only restored and not will be recovered
Best Regards
Norbert

  • Restore NDS from Tape

    I need to restore NDS from tape.
    There is not NDS backup (Arcserve 9.01).
    Can it be restored from files ?

    Ah, well, maybe with SBS it is an option (no idea, never used that
    product) and if it's a single-server tree you at least shouldn't be
    corrupting your tree by doing so but the hardest part will be your backup.
    If it does that, go for it but if not you'll need to recreate the tree or
    find another backup. If you ever ran `dsrepair -rc` you may have a backup
    in sys:/system/dsr_dib as I recall that can be restored by Novell.
    Good luck.

  • Hard disk crashed, restored data from tape backup, Firefox not showing bookmarks. What is the location of bookmarks & favourites to ensure I have restored the correct file?

    Hard disk crashed (XP), restored files from tape backup using Retrospect onto new Windows 7 laptop. Started up Mozilla after restore but bookmarks and favourites are missing.
    I still have access to the backup tape and files. I was wondering whether the bookmarks are kept anywhere special other than the Mozilla program file that I restored.

  • Database Restore & Recovery from tape

    Hi Fellows
    I'm about to attempt a recovery from backup tape to a test server, as a 'tape recovery' test. The files I've marked for recovery include (directories including all sub-tree);
    Datafiles directory
    $ORACLE_HOME/sid/ directory where the sid is the database sid
    Control Files
    adump, Bdump, cdump and udump directories
    Archivelogs directory
    Flashrecovery area directory
    Redo logs directory
    initfile and spfile
    With these files recovered (from one point in time), and the dbconsole shut down prior to restore (for the sid) should the database be able to startup afterwards? Is there any other actions I should make? Thanks, David

    Thanks for your responses Alok and Santosh
    I'm pretty sure the files I have selected should be able to recover the database. The recovery, I think is rightly said, can only be done within Oracle. I'll look into a test of RMAN (I know it should be better) recovery once I've tested this as a 'straight from tape' recovery.
    Thanks again, David
    Alok and Santosh
    I thought I'd put this in as 'aftermath' of the attempted recovery;
    I had the server team restore the files stated (basically everything - redo, archivelogs, datafile, controlfiles, init and sp files, even the dump files) - and repalced them into directories made the same as the other server. When I started it, I was able to go into a 'Oracle Suggested' full database recovery, which was successful. I then checked the expdp dump files, 1 taken at the same time of backup as rman - and one directly after the restore), and compared rows - exactly the same. So appears to have worked.
    Many thanks, David

  • Restore backupsets from tape.

    Hi,
    We are on a 2 node RAC cluster, ASM. We run backups through rman.
    Scenerio:
    Rman backup runs and create backupsets in ASM diskgroup. We again run a tape backup to backup the backupsets to tape and delete the backupset from disk.
    My question:
    How can i restore the backupsets back to disk, if i have to restore a database?
    I use the following to backup the backupsets to tape:
    backup backupset completed before 'sysdate-2' delete input
    But i'm not sure of what command to use to restore the backupsets back from tape to disk if i need to restore the database? Any help appriciated.
    Thanks
    Karthik

    Hi,
    You are keeping latest backups on disk and in case of any Disk failure, when you run RESTORE/RECOVER it will use the backups from disk.
    In case if RMAN need more files then automatically restores needed archived logs from tape to disk during recovery.
    Please keep backups in a separate ASM diskgroup, which should not contain active database files such as datafiles, control files, and online redo logs.

  • Restore FRA from tape backup

    I have got a 2 node RAC cluster.
    I am running RMAN backup connecting to one of the nodes and then running RMAN backups to FRA.
    Since I cannot backup ASM to tapes just like a normal file system, I have configured the MML to backup the FRA to tapes using "backup recovery area" command.
    The FRA backup to tapes is successful.
    Now if ever I need to restore / recover the database, how do I restore my backups from tape.
    ie: I dont see a command to say -> restore recovery area , which will restore the backups to FRA.Or is there a way ?
    If it cannot restore , then what is the point of backing up the FRA to tapes using the above command.
    Any thoughts ?
    AU

    Just try to restore database/tablespace/datafile using usual RMAN commands: RMAN will check if FRA is used and check if related backup is on disk or on tape. If backup is on tape, RMAN will read it using Media Manager Layer (MML) in a transparent way.

  • Restore controlfile from tape backup without autobackup setting on

    RMAN-06563: control file or SPFILE must be restored using FROM AUTOBACKUP
    My question is, How can I restore control file from tape backup without CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP setting ON.
    It sounds like, There is no way we can restore control file from tape backup if you've not set the CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP is ON.
    Please advice

    When all controlfiles are lost and a recovery catalog is NOT used, RMAN has no information , where to find the controlfile backup. It's not enough to specify the channel, such a channel could hold many different backups from many different databases. You have tell , which database and which backupset. Modify your run block:
    SET DBID <DBID of the database,for which you want to restore the controlfile>;
    RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM <name_of_backupiece_which_contains_the_controlfile backup>';

  • RMAN error when restoring controlfile from tape

    Hi,
    We have a Production database with instance name PROD.
    We use Symantec Netbackup software to backup this database to tape library.
    We want to test some recovery scenarios on a test server. So we want to restore the production backups from Tape to this test server.
    We did the following:
    Cloned the ORACLE Home to the Test Server.
    Changed the db_name parameter to PROD and also set ORACLE_SID to PROD.

  • Need antispam script for my website guestbook entries... recommendations?

    My guestbook on my website got so slammed by spambots that i had to take it offline. I would like to get one of those scripts where the person has to fill in what they see in a box (letters, numbers, etc) in order to make an entry into my guestbook. My web designers says that i need to find a script for this. Any recommendations? I don't even know what these scripts are called, making them hard to look for!
    He does the website work in Dreamweaver in Tiger, if that makes any difference. This is a guestbook that forwards entries to me as emails (they are not diplayed on the site)

    Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to do, you don't need a preloaded for embed movies.  The page will load without any delay.  It's not until the user chooses to play a movie will it begin downloading / streaming it from the server.  Even if the video is a large file, internet users are use to this type of scenario where they choose to play a movie, ala youtube and others, that if their connections are slow there may be delays in video playback.  With all that said, I have seen and used page loaders where visitors will be expecting to wait a while for a result to happen, I just don't think this scenario warrants it.

  • Need Edwardian Script for CS5- anyone know where I can get it?

    I have a client that wants Edwardian Script for her wedding video. I don't have it on any of my Adobe CS5 products. I do not want to join the cloud. Anyone know how I can get the font and use it with CS5?

    I saved the font to my C drive, and then re- launched PP.
    Saving the font will not show up in PP. You need to "install" the font into your "Fonts" directory. Did you install it or just save it? If you did not install it you should just be able to right click on the font and select to install it from the contextual menu. Once the font has been "installed" in your Fonts directory all of the apps will read it. I have Edwardian Script installed on my machines and the Adobe apps read them fine.

  • Need a script for archive/copy IMAP Emails older than 25 days to local mailbox

    Hi there,
    I am really troubling with archiving my IMAP mails. So far I was using standard rules, which have a major drawback - they only work on incoming mails. But I want to copy only mails to my local mailbox that are older than 25 days. The reason is that by copying all incoming mails, mail also copies all spam and unimportant mails into the local mailbox. However I only want to copy the mails that I was able to read and consider to be important, which I am able to do within a couple of days. However, I am not able to to that on a daily basis and that is why I chose the 25 days window, because my hoster deletes them automatically after 30 days. I read in a lot of forums that rules wont help, since they only work for incoming mails, therefore I am guessing that I would need a script because I want this to be automated and only applied to mails that passed the 25 day timeframe. Is the anybody that could help me out? Thank you so much in advance.

    Hi adayzdone,
    thanks for your reply but I am not a Gmail user, I am using Strato. Therefore the handy Google Scripts won't help.
    I need a script in Apple, that only copies or moves the mail from my inbox to a local mailbox once they are past the 25 days line. Within those 25 day I have deleted all unnessecary mails, marks or higlighted the important once and know only the remaining once are worth keeping. But I still want them to be available in Mail and none of those archiving solutions that create pdfs or import them into their one database will help.

  • HELP!! Need a script for DUMMIES for a simple login/register feature

    I know very little html and am more of a designer, but my programmer has let me me down so I have to take this on myself.
    I want to include a very common feature where visitors register to my site, so I can collect some information and contact details from them, then they can access hidden pages of the site and receive some exclusive download links by email, allowing them to download content (only once). They can then login each time they visit with a userID or email and a password.
    My host supports almost every scripting language.
    I've been told PHP is what I need, but I know absolutley nothing about it. My host said there is templates for such a simple script out there on the net for free but I'm being passed from pillar to post with scripts for much more complicated and rarer scripts than I need.
    Hope you can help.

    Do I need to create a database to store users info first?
    Yes. Without a database, it won't work.
    Is this a basic html page with a table with lots and lots or rows and columns for each of the details they have entered (e.g Name, DOB, Address.....etc)??
    No, I'm afraid not. Dreamweaver's PHP server behaviors work in conjunction with the MySQL database. If your hosting company supports PHP, you will almost certainly have access to a MySQL database and phpMyAdmin, a web-based program that helps create and maintain MySQL databases. As a minimum, your users table in the database will need three columns:
    user_id (a number that acts as the primary key for each record)
    username
    password
    You can also have other columns to store other details, such as first name, family name, and any other information that you want to store.
    If you have never done any PHP or database development before, this is going to be a major undertaking for you. The Adobe Developer Centre has some articles that show you how to set up a PHP/MySQL testing environment (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_php.html) and create your first database-driven pages (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/php_event_registration.html). The Dreamweaver help files also step you through the process of creating a login system (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WScbb6b82af5544594822510a94ae8d65-7883a .html).
    Working with PHP/MySQL isn't difficult, but there's a lot to absorb. If you're going to start working with login systems and other database-driven features, you might find it useful to take a look at one of my books about Dreamweaver and PHP. I have different editions for Dreamweaver 8, CS3, and CS4. You can find more details at my website (http://foundationphp.com/).
    Good luck.
