Offline & online backups????

Hi all,
         Why are the advantages & disadvantages of offline & online backups??

Hi Ravi,
Joydeep has described it very well.
Just to add a bit:
If you are wondering what happens to the online redo log files while the online backup is running:
<i>During online backup, BRBACKUP does not backup the online redo log files. Instead, BRBACKUP generates online redo log switches so that all the online redo log files written during the online backup are copied into the archive directory. These offline redo log files then need to be backed up, since an online backup is consistent only in conjunction with these redo log files. The BRARCHIVE program backs up the offline redo log files.</i>
So the idea that during an online backup some redo files might be missed, is explained from the above paragraph.
Regards,
Loukas

  • No Online backups due to datafiles offline than I canu0092t recover. How...?

    Hi gurus!!!
    I got into a problem with some datafiles.
    We have MySAP in a BD oracle 9.2.0.6
    I used Oracle Entreprise Manager Console to generate two datafiles in the tablespace PSAPPRDUSR,
    but I generated them in another tablesapce (PSAPPRD) with a name of file,
    size and location very different from those that there uses the tablespace PSAPPRD.
    <b>So... I put them offline later to erase them later!!!</b>
    <b>The datafiles contains no data.</b>
    <b>Later, in the night backup:</b>

    HEEEELP!!!!
    What I can do to recover the datafiles and to continue with my daily Online backups?
    The BD is in production and I do not have long time to fix it, only a few hours on Saturdays night.

    Hi,
    alter database datafile offline drop;
    This command is not meant to drop a datafile. It is meant to offline the datafile with the intention of dropping the tablespace.
    For a tablespace comprising multiple datafiles you can only drop a datafile by dropping the entire tablespace, this will work even you have one datafile.
    If you have 10gr2, it's finally possible to drop a datafile as long as
    it's not the only datafile within the tablespace, and
    the tablespace is only and in read-write status.
    So since you are on 9i your situation in summary:
    If you have more than one datafile in the tablespace and you wish to keep the objects that reside in the other datafile(s) which are part of this tablespace, then you must export all the objects inside the tablespace.
    1. Gather information on the current datafiles within the tablespace by running some query to remember the t/s, segment, and datafile info.
    2. Export all the objects that you wish to keep.
    3. Once the export is done, issue the DROP TABLESPACE <tablespace name> INCLUDING CONTENTS.
    4. Delete the datafiles belonging to this tablespace using the operating system.
    5. Recreate the tablespace with the datafile(s) desired, then import the objects into that tablespace.
    Hope this helps and good luck,
    George

  • Ubuntu 2014 LTS - (offline vs. online) Backup questions

    Hey guys,
    I have a brand new Ubuntu LTS machine and can back it up properly.
    But I don't understand why the machine is offline within DPM.
    What I have is a small test System of Ubuntu Server 04.2014 LTS and i installed the
    VSS Snapshot daemon –
    "This daemon is required to create live Linux virtual machine backups."
    and KVP daemon as well.
    Following the TechNet entry:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn531029.aspx
    Live virtual machine backup
    2012 R2
    √ Note 3, 4, 5
    So I'm not sure where the Problem is. Shouldn't the machine visible as online due to creation a protection Group of DPM?
    Everytime I'm creating a recovery Point and run a backup the machine is still online and I couldn't see an offline behavior which i would expect (save state).
    May I understand something wrong? Is there a backup guy here who has more Expertise with Debian and or ubuntu machines and can give me a hint?
    P.S.
    guest Services are enabled and the usual stuff like rebooting and dynamic Memory seems to be working very well.
    I have also an VMM 2012 R2 running but I'm pretty sure there shouldn't be a problem?!

    Hi,
    <snip>
    Everytime I'm creating a recovery Point and run a backup the machine is still online and I couldn't see an offline behavior which i would expect (save state).
    >snip<
    At the time of adding the VM to protection, DPM queries the hyper-V writer on the Hyper-V host to get a list of guests and their backup state (caption).  At the time, that state reported (offline) so that is what was used in DPM UI.  If the machine
    later can be backed up in (online) state, then it will be backed up online, but the DPM UI is still going to show (offline).  To make the DPM UI show online, you need to stop protection, retain the replica, then reprotect.  At that time hyper-V writer
    will report (online) and DPM UI will reflect going forward.
    To list hyper-V writer captions for guests to see if online or offline state backups will be done:
    From an administrative command prompt on the Hyper-V server:
    a. Type: copy con script.txt and press enter
     b. Type: list writers and press enter
     c. Press CTRL + Z + enter (to save)
     d. Type: diskshadow /s script.txt | find /i "caption: O"
    Output will be displayed for each guest as follows.
    C:\temp>diskshadow /s script.txt | find /i "caption: O"
                            - Caption: Online\SCS2012R2-DC
                            - Caption: Online\SQLSERVER
                            - Caption: Offline\MJLC-WSS-V14
                            - Caption: Offline\MJLC-DPM2012Sp1

  • Whether to take Offline (or) Online backup

    Hi
          I am planning to apply support pack 14 now I am in SP13 before applying SP14 I am planning to take Database backup.
          What is recommended whether to take Offline or Online backup,
          Can any one explain which the best way to take backup is.

    Hi,
    Taking a successful backup is must(suggested)  before Support pack implementation.
    However online/offiline anything will be ok.
    As online backup is taken to minimise the downtime for SAP application.
    If you can get a downtime you can go for offline backup..
    Say if you can not get downtime then go for online backup.Given you are running in archive log mode.During this performance will be little degraded.that is why suggested to run online backup in off -peak hours
    You can go for a online backup before night(starting of SP implementation) and before starting the support packs do a log switch and then do a archive backup and make a note of that log number and start the SP implementation.
    In case of problems when you have to restore the backup restore the backup and recover until the log number which we generated just before the SP implementation...
    Thanks.

  • Database open fails after online backup recovery

    Hi Friends
    We are trying to set up an additional server using the online backup of our DEV server. We have been following SAP Note 549828 for the same. Having restored the online backup, the open database failed.
    To resolve the same, in accordance to SAP Note 549828, we created a backup control file with success using the command
    create controlfile reuse set database DEV resetlogs noarchivelog
    However on issuance of the command
    RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE UNTIL CANCEL
    we run into an error as to
    ORA-00279: change 794638222 generated at 10/25/2007 12:43:20 needed for thread 1
    ORA-00289: suggestion : /oracle/DEV/oraarch/DEVarch1_9766.dbf

    We even manually copied the file system.data1 from the source to the target server but to no avail.
    Also the SQL command
    SELECT FILE#, CHANGE# FROM V$RECOVER_FILE
    displays a different change# for system.data1 while it is showing same number for all other datafiles.
    Please advice at the earliest as we are struck. Points awaiting their master.
    Regards
    Lokesh Gupta

    Some inputs addition to Erics comments
    The problem is you dont have archives ie Offline redo logfiles in correct location.
    /oracle/DEV/oraarch/DEVarch1_9766.dbf  Here DEVarch1_9766 is archive file which is misssing from location /oracle/DEV/oraarch. To recover DB you need Archives generated during hot backup.
    Generally these steps willl give you desired result.
    select * from v$logfile;
    We normally switch the log files to the number of log groups that exist
    alter system switch logfile;
    create a Backup directory to hold our hot back datafiles and Archives
    When the backup is complete check the backup location to see if all the files are available. We could now either FTP the same to the other system or copy over these files to another location in case of cloning on the same system.
    Copy over all the files to their respective filesystems and directories and then edit the file that was created using the backup controlfile to trace. Copy that file to the remote system and edit it accordingly.
    check that all the files are in the right location and edit that information in the control file
    Once the controlfile is run successfully and you get the statement processed, we can start applying the archive logs that we have moved to the archive log destination directory as per the init<sid>.ora file.
    do a recover of the database to its consistent state
    recover database using backup controlfile until cancel;
    The create control file command only changes the structure of the database and the SID name, the header of the datafiles still hold all the required information. The above command would ask you to input the archive log file names one by one to do recovery or you could choose the AUTO option. Once the recovery process is complete, open the database with the resetlogs option

  • Online Backup of supported Linux VM on Hyper-V 2012 R2 / SC DPM 2012 R2

    Hi,
    I'm trying to set up a lab environment:
    Win 2012 R2 with Hyper-V
    running 2 Linux Machines:
    Linux2 - CentOS 6.4 with manually installed Linux Integration services 3.4
    Linux3 - CentOS 6.4 without LIS (should be already included in CentOS)
    Another machine running Win 2012 R2 Server with SC DPM 2012 R2
    but both VMs show as "Offline" when trying to back them up via DPM. Tried local Windows Server Backup with the same result.
    I am able to backup the VMs "offline" (pausing the VM, taking snapshot, resume VM) but according to MS, SC DPM 2012 R2 should be able to do Online backups for supported Linux VMs (http://blogs.technet.com/b/virtualization/archive/2013/07/24/enabling-linux-support-on-windows-server-2012-r2-hyper-v.aspx)
    The only things in the EventLog are these:
    A storage device in 'Linux3' loaded but has a different version from the server.  Server version 6.0  Client version 4.2 (Virtual machine ID 4F5CDDD8-B855-41CF-83B2-772C1B99090D). The device will work, but this is an unsupported configuration.
    This means that technical support will not be provided until this problem is resolved. To fix this problem, upgrade the integration services. To upgrade, connect to the virtual machine and select Insert Integration Services Setup Disk from the Action menu.
    Any Ideas ?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    That list would need to come from the Windows hyper-v group, they are responsible with adding the feature to the integration components for various Linux OSes.  DPM just backs up whatever the hyper-V writer presents to us, if the guest supports
    online, we back it up online, if not hyper-V saves the guest before the VSS snapshot is taken and DPM takes the backup from the saved state.
    NEW NOTE ADDED 1-29-14: Windows group just released “Linux Integration Services Version 3.5 for Hyper-V”. The
    document mentions that some versions of Red Hat and CentOS are now
    supported to do online backup.
    Live virtual machine backup support
    ======================
    RHEL/CentOS 6.0-6.3
    RHEL/CentOS 5.7-5.8
    RHEL/CentOS 5.5-5.6
    ADDTL NOTES: If there are open file handles during a live virtual machine backup operation, the backed-up virtual hard disks (VHDs) might have to undergo a file system consistency check (fsck) when restored.
    Live backup operations can fail silently if the virtual machine has an attached iSCSI device or a physical disk that is directly attached to a virtual machine (“pass-through disk”).

  • Actions to be performed after a online backup restore

    Hello Guru's,
    I have an online backup of a system.
    (AIX - ORACLE)
    If I restore the backup using Tivoli Storage Manager I still have to perform some actions to recover the database.
    I have read through the SAP documentation and it seems I can restore the logs using brtools (brrecover).
    My questions actually is, which option do I have to take if I want to apply the offline archive logs as far as possible ?
    "Complete database recovery" of "database point in time recovery" ?
    I want to make sure that only the archivelogs are being applied and that the database restore is not peformed again.
    Thank you all !
    bye
    BUD

    Hello Hans,
    > and it seems I can restore the logs using brtools (brrecover).
    If you only want to restore your archivelogs, then use brrestore.
    brrecover is for recovering the database, not for restoring.
    Take a look at here:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/88/cadaca94734ae5b8ea3491f615741b/content.htm
    and here:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0d/d3077b4a0c11d182b80000e829fbfe/content.htm
    > My questions actually is, which option do I have to take if I want to apply the offline archive logs as far as possible ?
    > "Complete database recovery" of "database point in time recovery" ?
    In this case you have to do an incomplete database recovery or in other words called "point in time recovery". For the difference between these two restore types take a look at the oracle documentation:
    http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/intro004.htm#i1016863
    After you have restored your archive logs you can perform the recovery manually:
    > SQL> recover database using backup controlfile until cancel;
    > SQL> cancel;
    > SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
    Btw.as you are using TDP for SAP you can use backfm to restore only some several files.
    Regards
    Stefan

  • How can i use offline & online database in the same time?

    how can i use offline & online database in the same time?
    my database in another server when the connection true it connect
    but if not does not work
    i wanna make offline database if the server not connected it connect offline then the server is on it alter all data from the offline to the server.

    User, please tell us your Jdev version!
    There is no such functionality build into the framework. The offline data base is only for designing the db, not to have a backup db.
    If you can't connect to the db the application will not work.

  • Online backup via BRTOOLS

    Hi there!
    I am planning to implement an online backup using brtools. When I did the testing, I noticed an error that prevents me from completing the backup. Hope anybody can help me. It seems that there is an error with the compress command but I cant seem to understand why. Below is the entire log of my backup. Btw, Im using ECC6 and Oracle Database 10g.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Scott,
    Thank you for the quick reply. However, I have another thing to bring up. I created an exact replica of this instance to a separate server for my online backup testing. I used mksysb for my rootvg and created a backup of my datavg and restored it to the new server. To my surprise, my online backup worked. Im currently running it so that I can upload the log in this thread. I checked on the version of the brtools and they are both of the same level. Also, I forgot to mention that I've been using offline backup via brtools since last year. It was only now that Im trying to implement an online backup. Would this problem still be caused by brarchive patch 18?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Online Backup Problems - DOA Error

    Hi all!
    I tried to establish an online backup for one of my Testservers. I configured the init<SID>.ora in the same way as the file is configured on an other Server (Backup works fine there).
    In addition I adapted the parameter-file.
    Are there any other configurations have to be done?
    The Backup should be performed by an other Server.
    The Backuputility (BAckupExec 10) allready starts the BAckupJob but this Job fails (without any Error -> I canceled the job after 30 Minutes without writing data...)
    I planned the Job in DB13 - attached the second PArt of the Log!
    Perhaps somebody can give me a hint to solve the Problem!
    Would be great to solve that,
    Alex
