ORA-19502 with RMAN

Hi All
I am taking hat backup with rman. and every time by backup fails with ORA-19502 and ORA-27072 error. I have sufficient space on the mount point then also every time (i have tried 4 time) backup fails when this start /v01/oradata/PATCH/APPS_TS_MEDIA07.dbf. I have checked dbf file with dbv utility, datafile is ok.

Kindly advice me. I am using /v05 mount point which have 250Gb free space. and in general my backup size is 140Gb.
OS is HP-Unix and database is 10.2.0.4
Thanks

Hi Krishna
I think it has something to do with configuration. Make sure oracle software owner (oracle user, by default) at OS level has full permissions on the file system under the new mount point. If everything is OK, configure the disk channel explicitly and see if it works.
To test, do this in RMAN session
$> rman target / catalog rman/<pass>@catalog
RMAN> configure channel ch1 device type disk format '/v05/appp/oraptc/backup/full/PATCH-Full-%U' ;
RMAN> backup datafile 1;
If it's fine, you can go ahead and do the database backup.

    I checked the df -k and I still have about 6% space in my /dbrecovery disk, a separated space, and I did not find the file indicated either. So was still possible the space is full? or others reason?
    I used the "delete obsolete"command in rman but nothing can be deleted.

    It seems your filesystem cannot handle large files (> 2G). Use 'maxpiecesize' option of 'allocate channel' command to limit the filesize.

  • ORA:01013 with Duplicate Database - RMAN

    Hi,
    I havea demo database on server1 and am creating a clone database on server2 with RMAN duplicate command. I have the catalog on server1 itself. I created the backups of the database and executed RMAN command from server2 with
    server1 in open status and server2 in nomount state.
    the command i ran was:

    Txs for your reply,
    But the ID you Provide doesn't help
    Solution
    Options to resolve:
    1. Clean up unnecessary files on /oracle/u08.07/ - The File System as Enough Disk Space
    Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
    9.9G 3.8G 5.6G 41% /backup/ORA_BACKUP_CFMT
    2. Add disk space to /oracle/u08.07/
    As you see ther's enough space.

    After every resetlogs you have to take fresh backup.
    It seems you have opened your database in resetlogs and your backup is prior to this resetlogs.So the controlfile is showing inconsistance with the other datafiles.

    upto now it's success full when i am trying to recover

    can you please suggest the solution for this.
    thanks a lot.

    I'm not sure what you're doing is supported.
    You are taking a 10g database and restore and recover it using 11g software.
    I think you are allowed to do that with 10g software only.

  • Problem creating physical Standby database with RMAN

    Hi All
    I am trying to learn oracle dataguard and as part of the process learning creating standby database.
    Platform : Sun-Fire-V250 Sparc, Solaris 10
    Database Version - Oracle 11R2
    I am creating standby database on same server, so directory structure is different.
    Following the instructions on Oracle site I managed to create a functional physical standby database. But I am not able to create standby database using RMAN. These are the steps that I followed-
    1.Set up all necessary parameters on primary database as done while creating physical standby database manually, eg setting force logging, creating standby logs etc.
    2.Edited parameter file on primary database as done while creating manual pysical standby database creation. Some of the changes done are-
    On Primary Database:
    *.FAL_CLIENT='orcl11020' #Primary database unique name
    *.FAL_SERVER='stdby_11' #Standby database unique name
    db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020'
    log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem'
    standby_file_management=auto
    *.log_archive_config='DG_CONFIG=(orcl11020,stdby_11)'
    *.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11020/archivelog
    VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=orcl11020'
    *.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=stdby_11 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1='ENABLE'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2='ENABLE'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT='%t_%s_%r.arc'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES=30
    Copied same pfile for standby database and modified following-
    *.control_files='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl','/<dir>/fra_stdby/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl'
    *.db_name='orcl1102'
    *.db_unique_name='stdby_11'
    *.FAL_CLIENT='stdby_11'
    *.FAL_SERVER='orcl11020'
    db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11'
    log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem'
    standby_file_management=auto
    *.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/fra_stdby/STDBY_11/archivelog
    VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
    *.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=orcl11020 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE)
    db_unique_name=orcl11020'
    3. Add relevant information in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files and then restart listener.
    3. Created password file with same credential as primary database.
    4.Up-to-date RMAN backup of primary database available.
    5.Create standby controlfile with rman
    While primary database s open (I tried with primary database in mount mode as well)-
    $>rman catalog rman/paswd@rman target /
    RMAN> BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY;
    6. Open a new terminal and startup standby database in nomount mode using parameter file created -
    $>ORACLE_SID=stdby_11
    $>export ORACLE_SID
    $>sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL>STARTUP NOMOUNT pfile='<location/initfilename.ora'
    SQL>quit
    $> rman AUXILIARY / target sys/passwd@orcl11020 catalog rman/passwd@rman
    RMAN>DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY DORECOVER;
    RMAN finishes without error but archive logs are not being tranported. Looking at the log, following caught my eye-
    Error 1017 received logging on to the standby
    Check that the primary and standby are using a password file
    and remote_login_passwordfile is set to SHARED or EXCLUSIVE,
    and that the SYS password is same in the password files.
    returning error ORA-16191
    FAL[client, ARC2]: Error 16191 connecting to orcl11020 for fetching gap sequence
    Errors in file /<>dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
    ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
    Errors in file /<dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
    ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
    So on both primary and standby I confirmed
    SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile
    NAME TYPE VALUE
    remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
    To make double sure that password files are same, I shutdown both databases, delete password files and recreated with same credentials.
    Password files are called - orapworcl11020 and orapwstdby_11
    Can someone guide me where thisngs are going wrong here please.

    Not sure if I understood it clearly.
    SELECT * FROM V$ARCHIVE_GAP;
    returns no rows so there is no gap.
    But could you please explain me the result of the previous query. To catch up again, on standby when I check
    SELECT SEQUENCE#,APPLIED FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG
    SEQUENCE# APPLIED
    75 NO
    74 NO
    76 NO
    77 NO
    I understand that though archive files have been copied across but they are not applied yet.
    On primary when I give your query -
    SELECT name as STANDBY,SEQUENCE#,applied, completion_time
    2 FROM v$archived_log
    3 where dest_id=2
    4 and sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80;
    I get -
    STANDBY SEQUENCE# APPLIED COMPLETIO
    stdby_11 74 YES 28-JUN-11
    stdby_11 75 YES 28-JUN-11
    stdby_11 76 YES 29-JUN-11
    stdby_11 77 YES 29-JUN-11
    stdby_11 78 YES 29-JUN-11
    stdby_11 79 YES 29-JUN-11
    stdby_11 80 YES 29-JUN-11
    stdby_11 75 NO 07-JUL-11
    stdby_11 74 NO 07-JUL-11
    stdby_11 76 NO 07-JUL-11
    stdby_11 77 NO 07-JUL-11
    stdby_11 78 NO 07-JUL-11
    I have intentionally given
    sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80
    because I know in the current incarnaion of the database, max sequence is 78.
    So my understanding is, the rows between 28-29 June are from previous incarnation, correct me if I am wrong
    Archive files of the current incarnation, since I successfully created standby database are shipped but yet to be applied - am I right?
    Then my final question is, when will these archives be applied to standby database?
    I am sorry to ask too many questions but I am just trying to understand how it all works.
    Thanks for your help again

  • Logical Standby recover with RMAN

    Hi All,
    I have a test environment with Primary DB Server, Physical Standby and Logical Standby.
    The Logical Standby DB (cur_log_stdb) is backed up every evening by RMAN and I have a question:
    If I recover my Logical Standby DB from backup and switch replication to new Logical Standby DB (new_log_stdb) it will work or not?
    My steps e.g.:
    1. Make a new server for my new_log_stdb and repair structure of catalogs;
    2. Repair listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files from cur_log_stdb to new_log_stdb;
    3. Restore DB with RMAN from backup to new_log_stdb;
    4. On cur_log_stdb execute "alter database stop logical standby apply";
    5. Change a DNS name from cur_log_stdb to new_log_stdb;
    6. On new_log_stdb execute "alter database start logical standby apply immediate";
    I'm not sure that archivelogs will apply to the new_log_stdb for period since rman backup was created.
    But if this plan won't work how can I restore Logical Standby DB from RMAN backup and resume replication from Primary?
    Configuration:
    Oracle Linux 6.4
    Oracle Database 11.2.0.3
    Primary and Physical with Data Guard

    Hello;
    The only way to know for sure is to test it. You are asking somebody you don't know to confirm a recovery test for you. You have to perform the test yourself to be certain.
    If your plan does not work you can always rebuild the Standby.
    Best Regards

  • Auxiliary channel allocation in TSPITR with RMAN-managed instance

    Hi,
    I'm trying do perform TSPITR with RMAN-managed auxiliary instance. All backups are stored on tape. I need to send MML environment values while allocating auxiliary channel to connect to correct NetWorker server and send other NetWorker parameters.
    Unfortunately I have issues with sending these params - I can't send them from recover RUN block, as auxiliary instance does not exists at the time when I'm starting to execute script. (example from test env using disk channels)
    RMAN> RUN
    2> {

    4> ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL aux1 DEVICE TYPE disk;

    10.2.0.4, RHEL
    Thanks,
    Lukasz

    What can be done here, is to CONFIGURE AUXILIARY CHANNEL to set appropriate params for auxiliary instance (without allocating channels manually).
    I just wanted to know, if I can do it just for this one session (without permanent modification). What I can do, is:
    CONFIGURE AUXILIARY CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE sbt_tape PARMS 'mml settings';
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE sbt_tape PARMS 'mml settings';
    CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO sbt_tape;
    RUN
    (new names, auxiliary parameter file)
    RECOVER TABLESPACE ...
    CONFIGURE AUXILIARY CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE sbt_tape CLEAR;
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE sbt_tape CLEAR;
    CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE CLEAR;I just wanted more 'elegant' solution.
    Update:
    Due to bug no. 4768353 there is no possibility to use automatic channel allocation in auxiliary instance. Problem resolved by using own customized auxiliary instance started before recovery process. Channels have been allocated manually using ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL c1 DEVICE TYPE sbt... on already running aux.
    Thanks,

    Thanks for your reply.
    I will try your suggestion as it could come useful some time.
    So with this alternate method at the end I would have standby aligned as of backup time, correct?
    And after running something like this on standby:
    SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
    It will begin to receive, archive and apply redo logs, correct?
    Some answers regarding the original question. It was confirmed that there was a 2hours cut-off time at firewall level.
    The first datafile that the rman session began to copy was 3.2Gb in size, taking more than 2 hours completing.
    Monitoring with netstat on source and target I saw this at source during the duplicate process:
    tcp 0 0 10.49.1.93:46626 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    tcp 0 0 10.49.1.93:46627 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    tcp 0 0 10.49.1.93:46629 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    tcp 0 369240 10.49.1.93:50371 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    and the session bound to port 50371 was the only one pushing data (send queue not empty).
    The other 3 ones I presume are for control of rman session. I get 3 sessions even if I open only one channel on primary side.
    After the first datafile completes copy, a new session (with port 14871) is established substituting the other one.
    The three initial ones instead remain for all the duplicate process.
    tcp 0 487872 10.49.1.93:14871 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    tcp 0 0 10.49.1.93:46626 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    tcp 0 0 10.49.1.93:46627 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    tcp 0 0 10.49.1.93:46629 192.168.12.41:1521 ESTABLISHED
    So after the copy of the first file, the session come back to one or more of the initial 3 ones, and they probably make a push-ack, got a 3113 as the firewall has silently cut them after 2 hours.... and the datafile, even if completed, is not marked as completed. A new run would copy again it...
    Now the time has been put to 8hours, with 24hours being the maximum value set (no disable possible as far as the network guy said...).
    And the duplicate completed correctly.
    Would I have to fear any problems with this cut-off due to "normal" dataguard operations or not, in your opinion?
    Thanks

    My RMAN backuppieces are stored in a network drive:
    \\old_location\FULL
    and
    \\old_location\INC
    I'm trying to restore a whole database with RMAN in another server from my FULL backup.
    For that, I copy all backuppieces files
    from: \\old_location\FULL
    to new server: D:\new_location\
    Also I created the relevant folder hierarchy under <ORACLE_BASE> directory, as follows:
    a. Create BDUMP, CDUMP, and UDUMP directories under '<ORACLE_ BASE>\admin' directory
    b. Create <DATABASE_NAME> directory under '<ORACLE_BASE>\oradata' directory
    c. pfile.ora and controlfile (CTL_MTDPROD_2308_20120401_1.CTL) are backup from original database and they are in D:\new_location\
    d. I copied pfile.ora and controlfile to folder: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\
    I started creating an instance in new server from scratch:
    C:\>oradim -new -sid MTDPROD -intpwd mtdprod
    C:\> SET ORACLE_SID=MTDPROD
    C:\> rman
    RMAN> connect target sys
    RMAN> SET DBID=21692876873
    RMAN> STARTUP force nomount PFILE=C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\init_mtdprod.ora
    RMAN> restore controlfile from 'C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\CTL_MTDPROD_2308_20120401_1.CTL';
    RMAN> alter database mount;
    #Since I want to read my backuppieces from D:\new_location and not from \\old_location\FULL then I catalog and restore like:
    RMAN> catalog start with 'D:\new_location\';
    RMAN> restore database;

    .....(continues)
    Questions:
    1. RMAN still reads from old_location. The only way to avoid that would be deleting all files from \\old_location\FULL ?
    2. The message "failover to piece handle=D:\new_location\...." indicates that that file is not usefull? I just copy them from old_location to new_location... how can they get useless?
    I suspect there is something in controlfile that redirects to \\old_location\FULL\ and doesn't let to read from D:\new_location\
    Please, advice.

    I suspect there is something in controlfile that redirects to \\old_location\FULL\ and doesn't let to read from D:\new_location\Is this a cold backup? Did you change the location of control file in your PFILE or is it still pointing to old location?
    You may want to check the output of RESTORE DATABASE PREVIEW command, which will just report which backup files it uses without actually restoring thhe DB.
