Oracle 10g Scheduled Backup

Hai,
I submitted a job using oracle 10g feature of scheduled backup feature in Windows environment.
When I selected the option of disk the screen displays the message that the backup will be in Flash Recovery Area in Windows environment.
Please let me know in what extension the file will be created and the entire path where the backup file will be stored. (windows environment)
Thanks and Regards,
A.Mohammed Rafi.

You will get directory Flash_recovery_area under ORACLE_BASE env variable.
You can do Sho Parameter Flash_recover_area.Format is depends upon which format u have given or you are using default format.clear which one recovery files u are looking for .

Oracle 10g Scheduler, the Auto Task Job Class

When we are assign to a job to the auto task JOB Class on Oracle 10g scheduler, please advise what exactly we are asking Oracle to do?
From what I read from my text book, by assigning a job to a Job Class we can control the following..
Resource_Consumer_Group : Determine how much resources being allocate to the job
Logging_Level: Determine the detailing level of logging
Log_history: Determine how long the logged data should be retained
For auto task, what are the value on these paremeters set to?
Thanks,

By default, jobs are assigned to DEFAULT_JOB_CLASS.
You can see attributes for the class from:
SELECT * FROM dba_scheduler_job_classes;

Oracle 10g database backup & recovery

Hi,
How can i take backup of our oracle 10g database by copy its physical database file and how can i restore them from these files.
is any Strategy other then RMAN??
Regards
Raj

Can you afford to shutdown the database? If yes, do a cold backup.
1. Do a clean "shutdown immediate"
2. Copy All the Datafiles, Controlfile, Redo Log Files, Spfile/Init files using Operating System command to a required location
When you want to recover
Just copy the files back to the original destinations and statup the database. But ou hav eto know that if you copied your file by 11:00 on 25/08/06. And you loose your database on 27/08/06, you can only recover back to 25/08/06.
If you cannot afford to shut down your database or loose data, best to run your database in Archivelog Mode. Schedule and use RMAN to do a hot backup at specified time automatically. The advantage is that you do not have to shutdown your database to get a consistent backup like teh cold backup.

Error in Oracle 10g Sechedule Backup

Hi,
I'm having a problem regarding the backup system of Oracle 10g. As I reach the "Schedule Backup-Scheduled" page and press the "Next" button, I get an "Error on page" in the status bar and from that point, I cannot continue.
Please advice me what I should do to avoid this? Or what have I done wrong?
Because of this, I cannot continue my backup process.

all errors are logged, you have a lot of log files to look at, that's why I did not specify one.
On unix, you can find it with something like
find <OEMGCHOME> -type f -mtime -1 -ls | grep log
then grep for your error. It require some research, but it provides a lot of info.
Personnaly, I discovered once that my oem was not working correctly because of an "alter session" I did put in the login.sql. OEM RMAN 10.1.0.2 also does not like non-standard territories/language.

Oracle Express scheduled backup hangs

Hello,
We are using Oracle Express 10g and everytime it tries to run a scheduled backup, the server freezes and needs to be restarted; there are no errors to report. However, when we run the backup manually (from the web interface), it works just fine.
Has anyone else encountered this before? Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Katrina Bryant.

windows or linux? Hot backup? Ok whats the difference between when it runs manually, and when it runs from the scheduler?
Environment settings?
Windows -> userID running the task belongs fo the ora_dba group?
linux -> via a crontab job? (and userID is a member of the dba group?) add the needed environment variables to the script that runs the backup?

How to get the oracle 10g database backup.

Hi,
i have installed oracle 10g.i need to get the back up of db.
i have search so many sites.i didn't get much information.
some guys tells we go to installed directory in that run"RAMNS".
i am following in the process.after run the rams which commands
i have to used to get the db back up.
C:\Oracle\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\BIN\RAMNS
RAMNS>...(here is the prob which commands i have to used)
i have seen another way solution is you can use "imp" and "exp" present in BIN to take back up.(how to follow this)
please help me,

Would suggest you read the docs on backup, restore. if you cannot restore you db, you are in trouble. read it and understand it well.
Summary:
For 10g, you have rman, imp/exp and datapump import/export (replaces imp/exp).
For very simple backups where you have windows you can shut down, run a cold backup. shutdown the database, copy the database files, and startup. i also take copies of the current pfile and anything else important to restore the database with. we copy the files to a dedicated backup file system, which go to tap, e.
That will give you a simple option to restore.
For prod databases, you typically want archive mode on which means you can run hot or online backups. just remember you have to have the archive logs generated during the hot backup. you now also have the ability to do a point in time restore.
Exp or datapump exp can be used for metadata exports, full exports or partial (schema, table, etc) as needed. i typically run a cold or hot plus an export for redundacy and restore options, but db size will change how you back things up.
You can find plenty of scripts to automate these. just understand how the scripts work and understand the process itself. if not, you will have trouble restoring when it is needed the most.
Rman is also a good option with the latest releases.

How do I create an Oracle 10g offsite backup

Total size of the datafiles that make up the tablespaces of the DB = 1532121.6875 Mb
This size will eventually grow to about 6-7 terrabytes
I used the following query to determine the above size:
SELECT sum(bytes/1048576) FROM dba_extents; I saw this question poseted on another site
QUESTION POSED ON: 15 August 2007
I recently handled a project whereby we have many site servers at various places in our country and there is a central server in Delhi (India). My project is to take a backup of the local server and post that backup to the central server via Internet. I chose the RMAN (Recovery Manager) approach. Using that approach I can back up the database and connect to the remote database. But I can't find how to post the backup to the remote server. Please give me guidance regarding this project.
This was the answer:
EXPERT RESPONSE
Basically, there are two options to have RMAN back up to a remote server. One, back up locally and then FTP the backup to the remote server. Two, create a network file share from the database server to the remote server. Have RMAN back up to the network file share. It will think the file system is local, but in actuality, the file system is in another location.
Currently a level 1 incremental backup is done at 10:00PM every night to the array (this takes approximately 1 hour to be completed). I am interested in doing a full hot offsite backup of the DB to a disk on another server.
Can anyone tell me how would I be able to do this using RMAN and/or backing locally and then FTP'ing the backup to a remote sever.
Can anyone also confirm if the calculation for the size of the DB is accurate?
( I did the calculations based on what I saw at this site and this site)
I would like to do this in preperation for some firmware upgrade that our Sun support would like to do on the array, I would like to implement a script (or maybe use RMAN) to do a nightly offsite backup. I would still need to do the DB backup to the array...but what files do I copy off the array (to the remote server) for an offsite backup of the DB.
I would really appreciate any help.
MY CURRENT RMAN CONFIGS
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog

Thanks for the help, I took a look at the script. Suppose however I didn't/couldn't do any modification of the Oracle RMAN settings (without voiding my support contract). Could I simply copy the necessary DB files to a remote server, would I be able to do a restore (if necessary) from those copied files?
Like I have pointed out before, currently an incremental level 1 backup (to the array) is done nightly at 10 (and it takes approximately 1 hour)

Schedule Backup on Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g

Hello All,
I am using Oracle enterprise manager 10g for schedule backup, i enter the user and password of operating system (windows XP) in Host Credentials part, but it return this error:
Connection to host as user khazaei failed: IOException in sending Request :: Connection refused: connect
khazaei is my windows username ,
any one can help me?
thanks in advance,
Hamzeh Khazaei

You need to add khazaei to the Local Security Policy "Logon as Batch Job". if you have already done so and you have logged on to a Domain, then add the domain to the username. e.g domain_name\khazaei.
BTW - you can get faster response to this issue in the EM forum

Long-term retention backup strategy for Oracle 10g

Hello,
I need design a Archivelog, Level 0 and Level 1 long-term retention backup strategy for Oracle 10g, It must be based in Rman with tapes.
¿Somebody could tell me what it's the best option to configure long-term retention backups in Oracle?, "CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 1825 DAYS;" It's posibble ?
Regards and thanks in advance

Hello;
RECOVERY WINDOW is an integer so yes its possible. Does it make sense?
Later My bad, this is Oracle 11 only ( the gavinsoorma link ) . Getting harder and harder to think about 10. Don't think I would use RECOVERY WINDOW.
I would let the tape backup system handle the retention of your rman backups.
Using crosscheck and delete expired commands you can keep the catalog current with the available backups on tape.
Oracle 10
Keeping a Long-Term Backup: Example
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmbackp.htm#i1006840
http://web.njit.edu/info/oracle/DOC/backup.102/b14191/advmaint005.htm
Oracle 11
If you want to keep 5 years worth of backups I might just use KEEP specific date using the UNTIL TIME clause :
keep until time 'sysdate+1825'More info :
RMAN KEEP FOREVER, KEEP UNTIL TIME and FORCE commands

Oracle 10g new feature to backup to tape?

I heard rumours that Oracle 10g has new features to backup to tape directly. I don't know exactly how this is done, and I'd like the experts to comment. What I've discovered so far is that there is this program called Legato Single Server Version (LSSV) which ships with the Oracle 10g Companion CD which makes RMAN use the tape directly as a medium to backup. Is this CD available for download?

I am truly curious why you actively ask to avoid the "New Features Guide" which provides much of the information you desire.
