OEM GC Move repository with hot backup metanote 602955.1

Hi all...
I get maaaaadddddd..
Yesterday I correctly move the repository from my old Grid to the new one. I used the metalink note: 602955.1
After I finished I wasn't lucky about way and documentation. I conclude to repeat the process.
1. At the first time I move the repository I create with the dbca on the new host a general empty database.
The Documentation does not include a hint if his is necessary. So i conclude to try without a empty general database ( from my point of view it is not necessary to create an empty database because I try to move an entire database right ? )
2. I follow step by step the meta note. ( and now I understand all the speps :-) ).
BUT. At the step where the recovery starts I get an error :-(((((((((((
At Point D.6 Recover the Database. I get an wired error.

Steps to create the standby with Hot Backup........?????

Hi All
I am planning to create the Physical standby with Hot backup ....
Can anyboby give me the link/steps which explains how to do this?
Thanks
Gagan

To copy the file from the primary, you can use RMAN, or manual hot backup copy with begin backup and end backup mode.
You can read the doc about creation of standby database :

RMAN & Hot backup cloning taking long time

Dear DBAs,
We are doing both RMAN & Hot backup cloning foe that taking more time to restore data files to TEST instance. scp taking too much time to copy to target server because of its volume of data (1.5 TB) & Mounting the RMAN backups drive on test server and restoring from that drive taking more than 8 hours.
I heard that some companies are using some device to move heavy volume Hot backup copy from source to dest faster for clone the instance easily with in minutes. What is that device name to take hot backup copies from source and restore it in target server.
Test server Specs
Processor 8 cores with 32GB Memory.
Thanks
DBA

Hot backup is not recommanded for the database size more than 1T.
RMAN backup and restore is the only opiton available for a DBA.
Other option is to use EMC Symmentrix/BCV's/Snapshots. EMC uses pair of disks to achive synch the produciton data with test server. read more about EMC symmentrix or ask your storage team.

Open resetlogs is not working when creating clone db with online backup

Hi All,
I am trying to create a clone database using hot backup of a database .
STEPS THAT I FOLLOWED
LET ----- >CURRENT_DB NAME=DEV
CLONE DATABASE NAME=DEVCLONE
steps PERFORMED FORM DEV DB
- put the database in backup mode using 'alter database begin backup'
- copy all the data files to a different folder
- during copy i have performed some operations on the DB (creating users, tables, dmls etc...)
- in between copying i also performed log switch
- after completion of copy , "alter database end backup"
- created a backup control file in a human readable format (alter database backup controlfile to trace as ........)
steps performed for clone DB side ((DEVCLONE)
- created a parameter file for the database .
- modified the backup control file so that it will point to the location of copied destination of datafiles
- set the ORACLE_SID
- then 'sqlplus / as sysdba
- starup nomount
- run the modified control file ( created a control file for the clone database)
- recover the database using "recover database using backup controlfile"
I have provided the archive files that it was asking for (archive logs that has been generated in DEV DB)
then i canceled the recovery by typing "cancel"
- recover database using backup controlfile until cancel;
then typed "cancel"
- then try to open the database with open resetlogs but it showed below error
alter database open resetlogs
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01195: online backup of file 1 needs more recovery to be consistent
ORA-01110: data file 1: 'D:\DATA_GUARD\DEVHOT\SYSTEM01.DBF'
please help me on this ......
Thanks

Thanks , now i am able to open the DB in open reset logs mode .
Previously , when i had not taken the archive log after "alter database end backup" , i was not able to open the db with open resetlogs because the
fuzzy status of all the datafile headers were YES .
But after taking the archive log that got generated after "alter database end backup" and applying it on the clone db(Created with HOT backup ) the datafile_header status got changed from YES to NO .
So for that i am able to open the clone db with open resetlogs .
Can you please help me with a small description why this is happening ?
Thanks.......

Hi,
It doesn't look like a Scheduler issue, but an RMAN one instead.
According to the error, the diskgroup space is exhausted, so perhaps you're running out of space on your disk?

Schedule Hot backup via OEM

Hello all,
We have a realtively small system running Oracle 10G on Windows 2003 O/S. I've scheduled a full offiline (cold) backup of the whole db to run once weekly via OEM. Every night we run a script to do a 'logical' backup by EXPORTing the 2 main schemas in the DB out to .DMP files. However this now may not be enough to satisfy DB recovery requirements.
Is there an easy way to schedule a 'Hot' backup via OEM, that could replace the EXPORT scripts mentioned above, or would we have to write an RMAN script to do this ?? The requirement is really to allow the database to be updateable whilst any daily backup is running. I realise that the DB needs to be in ARCHIVELOG mode for anything like this to work.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shaun.

hi,
on the OEM main page, click on targets, you should see your databse there. click on the database and then on the maintenance tab.
from here you can schedule jobs and you have the option to schedule a online rman backup of your database. However, to do an online backup your database needs to have archiving turned on. Is this the case as you currently carry out offline backups which might indicate that archiving is turned off.

Alan

Failure when trying to open db with resetlogs after restore of hot backup

Hello,
i know that ora-600 errors should be directed to oracle instead of here, but as i have no access to oracle support you may be able / willing to give me some hint anyway. here is what i tried to do:
1. Make a Hot Backup of an Oracle DB running on Win2003, Version 9.2.0.5
2. Trying to restore this backup on a new host, running WinXP, Oracle 9.2.0.5
I can create the new controlfile and do a recovery with the syntax
"recover database using backup controlfile until cancel"
However, after this i'm trying to open the DB with the following syntax:
"alter database open resetlogs"
This takes a few seconds, then the instance gets terminated, showing an ora-600 error in the alert.log (i guess its useless to show the specific ora-600 error here, or am i wrong at this point?)
now i'm wondering if the difference in the operating system could be the reason ? I also have to mention that the database files from the hot backup were transfered over a WAN line, could a damage to this files, happened during the transfer cause something like this ?

These are from Howard
When you re-create a controlfile using a script or command that says 'create controlfile...', that command will require you to spell out the path to all the datafiles and online redo logs. It is a simple matter for your server process to visit each of the files mentioned in the create controlfile and read the SCN stored in the datafile header. It can also read the online redo logs and read the latest checkpoint change number stored there.
If all those numbers agree, that is obviously the age to which the rest of the database had gotten before the controlfiles were lost, and it's OK to create the new controlfile with that agreed-upon SCN forced in to the controlfile as its new SCN. Therefore the entire database is consistent and the database can be opened without recovery.
This sort of thing is what happens when you close your database down nicely and then delete all controlfiles as part of a recovery demo on a training course!
If those numbers don't agree, then it doesn't really matter. Logically, the highest number found, whether that be in one or more of the datafiles or one of the online logs, must be the age the database had reached before disaster struck. Your server process then writes that highest number into the new controlfile as its new SCN, and therefore your new controlfile agrees with the age of the latest bit of your database. The bits which were found to have smaller SCNs than that are therefore obviously in need of recovery -and because your new controlfile knows the SCN at which recovery should stop, recovery can be performed without trouble.
When the datafiles are inconsistent the control file has the latest SCN on it and it tries to bring the entrire database consisent with respective to its SCN..if something does not matches it says it is consisten
SO the recovery is done mainly based on the Controlf file..but the term backup..assume we have binary backup or the created new controlfile will have the scn to bring the DB to consistent state

I updated to IOS 8 but my C drive is out of space i couldn't restore my data back; how could move itunes with backup to another drive
or what could i do

There are two solutions . . . I run my iTunes Library off an external hard drive. However, this may limit the portability of your library. Though a La Cie Rugged external would help with that (I love mine, though I use it for diagnostics and repair, not for iTunes--but it does get around).
You can also upgrade your hard drive as was previously suggested. I've bought my recent hardware from: http://www.powerbookmedic.com
They have lots of parts and great manuals!
Good luck!

FULL HOT Backup failing with a 6 on media management layer....

Hi all,
My thanks in advance for reading and any posts. Appologies for the long post, but wanted to make sure I got all information required into the post
*******************The background*************************
We are currently doing full hot backups of all production databases to tape. The database we use is RAC install (9.2.0.6.0) on Linux Redhat Enterprise 4 (database on OCFS). We use a seperate Solaris 8 box with 2 HP Ultium tape drives over a standard Cat5 line (100mb), we use Veritas Netbackup 5.1 as our media manager and we use an RMAN repositry on another box. Currently the backup is taking on average 17 hours to complete (something that I have been through with Oracle).
We use the below rman script to do the full database backup.
DATE=`date +%m%d%Y-%H%M%S`; export DATE

Now due to the backup taking so long, we often have archive log backups that kick off. We generally get Restore Validates of this backup once a week.
*********************************Problem*******************************
Getting to the problem, the media manager generally completes the job with a 6, which in Veritas means that the backup failed to back up the requested files. I guess that this could be something to do with the media manager layer. But myself and my colleagues are of the opinion that this is something to do with the archive log backups running inbetween (hence the change archivelog all validate; appearing so many times in the script).
Has anyone got any ideas?
Thanks again for any posts / ideas,
Mark.

No I mean, it really tries to backup everything; control file, archive logs etc...
Yeah I will admit its a bit strange, didn't code it myself. The idea was to do a bit a of house keeping at the same time with the archived redo logs (hence the file system stuff with the archived redo logs).
You see we thought that this might be causing the issue.
any ideas are welcomed,
thanks again,
Mark.

Automating refreshing one system with the rman hot backup copy from another

Hi Apps DBAs,
Right now we have two systems: production (OPEBSN) and production support (FINSUP).
I implemented a cronjob, which can refresh FINSUP every night from the cold backup of production. We shutdown the production system at night.
But our istore on production will go live soon and our production system will run 24*7.
The production is already hot backed up from RMAN.
Is it possible to do the following?
Automating refreshing FINSUP from the RMAN hot backup of OPEBSN?
If it is possible, would you please outline the general idea or give me a reference documentation?
If it is not possible, is there any other way to realize our purpose?
Thank you in advance!

Clone from hot backup failing with ORA-19870, 19505 unable to find backup

Ok, the steps I am taking worked previously, the only thing that I know changed was the underlying file system and I am perplexed but then again I am not the most experienced dba so please forgive if I miss something obvious.
My steps are: create backup using:
backup database tag= tagname format '/archive/stage/DBNAME/%U';
backup archivelog all format '/archive/stage/DBNAME/%U';
backup current controlfile '/archive/stage/DBNAME/%U';
Then on the new server, I copy the files over to the new server and:
connect target username@prod
connect auxillary
set until time
duplicate target database to "PRODSBX"
etc...
The problem is the duplicate is not looking at my '/archive/stage/DBNAME' directory for the backup. It's looking in the normal backup directory on that prod box that it can't connect to... can anyone give me clues as to what I should be looking at to figure out why? I looked at file permissions in case it couldn't access this directory, I looked at id, group etc... and I am not seeing anything. These exact same scripts worked before... the only thing I have edited is the set until time so I just can't figure out why it's not going to the /archive/stage.
Any light shed in my general direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Va.

I have no way to copy the output of the files as this is on a closed network. If there is any particular information you are looking for I'd be happy to post it.
The restore is looking for the default backup location as specified in my rman configuration but in my backup script, I specify a different location that I do the hot backup to. The first time it took this location and successfully cloned to the new server and now it seems to be ignoring it. I am not sure why, any suggestions in what I should look at, if this is a possible configuration issue on my clone server or on my primary?
Thanks,
Va.

RMAN Hot backup Restore in new Server

Target Environemnt:
Database 11.2.0.1
OS:windows server 2008 R2
Here my scenario is need to take RMAN Hot backup in Prod Instance and need to restore in New Server with smae SID which is going to use as Prod instance.
Please suggest the detailed steps in order to achive the goal.
Waiting for your thoughts.
Thanks
Shaik

RMAN can make it easy to restore a database to a new host.
Notice that: Using RMAN RESTORE and RECOVER commands to move a database permanently to another host, will keep the original database identifier (DBID) and will therefore cause a conflict in the RMAN repository, because the restored database with the same DBID will be considered the current target database.
Below you may find the steps:
Preparing the New Host
Record the DBID of the source database.
Copy the initialization parameter file from the source database to the new host.
Make sure that all source database backups are available to the new host. Do not connect to the recovery catalog.
Restoring and Recovering on the New Host
Configure environment variables on the new host.
Connect to the new target database with NOCATALOG.
Set the DBID.
Start the instance with NOMOUNT.
Restore the SPFILE from backup.
Shut down the new instance.
Edit the PFILE.
Start the instance with NOMOUNT (again).
Create an RMAN RUN block to restore the control file.
Create an RMAN RUN block to restore and recover the database.
Open the database with RESETLOGS.
Regards,

Consistent hot backup possible

Is a consistent hot backup possible?
I would like to perform hot backups while the database is in basically a read only state. I am currently using Oracle recommended backups via OEM, for example.
run {
allocate channel oem_disk_backup device type disk;
recover copy of database with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0';
backup incremental level 1 cumulative copies=1 for recover of copy with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0' database;
release channel oem_disk_backup;
allocate channel oem_sbt_backup1 type 'SBT_TAPE' format '%U';
backup recovery area;
Would executing the sql command "alter database begin backup;" before running the above RMAN script accomplish this task? Then off course when completed execute sql "alter database end backup;".
My basic concern is this type of RMAN hot backup usable in a disaster situation, i.e recreated on another server from tape backup.
I am open to any other ideas.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Thanks everyone who replied to this thread.
Just to clarify my complete backup strategy, there are two RMAN scripts run on daily and weekly basis. The daily does pickup the archivelogs. I had shown the weekly when first opening this thread. Here is the daily.
run {
allocate channel oem_disk_backup device type disk;
recover copy of database with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0';
backup incremental level 1 cumulative copies=1 for recover of copy with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0' database;
release channel oem_disk_backup;
allocate channel oem_sbt_backup1 type 'SBT_TAPE' format '%U';
backup archivelog all not backed up;
backup backupset all not backed up since time 'SYSDATE-1';
My question now is what RMAN does in the increments. It appears to be updating the original level 0 copies of datafiles with changed blocks only. Is the new copy of the datafile now a level 0 type file?
Here is a transcript from one of the daily backups.

It appears to be updating the previous copy with updated blocks thus rolling forward the datafile copy to a new level 0 copy.
Then to restore from the backup RMAN would first use this new copy of the datafile and then apply any archivelogs to them to bring the database to the point in time the incremental backup was taken.
Are these assumptions true?
Thanks for your help,

Use a hot backup

Hi,
on 10g R2, I have a tablespace MYTBS. It's datafile on U filesystem. U filesystem should be changed. I have a backup of that datafile that I got like this :
ALTER TABLESPACE MYTBS BEGIN BACKUP;
host ocopy U:\BASE\DB\MY_TS.DBF \\Server\SAVE-DATA\HOTBACKUP
ALTER TABLESPACE MYTBS END BACKUP;How can I use this backup to start my database ?
Thank you.

Thank you.First thing U is not filesystem it's a drive available on your computer.
If I understand you correctly, you want to move database files from one drive to another.
The process is described here:
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/RenamingOrMovingOracleFiles.php
You can also do like:
1. take a tablespace offline
2. copy the datafiles to desired location
3. rename the datafile (using 'alter database rename file....to...;' command)
4. bring the tablespace online
There is limitation with the second method. You can't take system,undo and temporary tablespaces offline. Sometimes it may ask for recovery of the files also. But the advantage is also there that other application will be able to access the database.
or if you want to utilize the manual hot backup for the purpose, then restore the backup and perform recovery
Regards,
S.K.
