Recovery catalog
Hi,
I already had one database.when i tried to create another database it gives some error,the following errors are:
SQL> startup nomount
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 101784276 bytes
Fixed Size 453332 bytes
Variable Size 58720256 bytes
Database Buffers 41943040 bytes
Redo Buffers 667648 bytes
SQL> create database reccat;
create database reccat
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01501: CREATE DATABASE failed
ORA-01504: database name 'RECCAT' does not match parameter db_name 'hema1'
I think you probably copied and pasted the init.ora files and forgot to change the db_name parameter file.

I dont know from where recovery catalog is getting the information in bold.
I have crosschecked and deleted archives and resynced the catalog several times. Immediatly after doing that the backup works fine, but the other day its the same thing all over again.
Can some one tell me from where the catalog is getting this wrong infomation about archivelogs???
By the way here is some more info about my target Database:

Regards .....Do you have any other DBs with the same DBID as the one you are backing up? Are they connect to the same RMAN catalog?

How to install the Recovery Catalog
Hi:
How to install the recovery catalog? I used the following commands from the menu and it didn't work:
connect rman/rman
@?/rdbms/admin/catrman
There is no catrman.sql exists.
Thank you very much.If you are using Oracle8i, make sure your compatibility is set to at least 8.1.0 and you are connected to the catalog database. Then type create catalog; at the RMAN command line.
-
What's the recommended guideline on backing up a recovery catalog?
while I understand "Benefits of Using the Recovery Catalog as the RMAN Repository" as stated in
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96566/rcmquick.htm#442214
as well as things to take note if using control file as the sole rman repository,
as stated in "Monitoring the Overwriting of Control File Records" in http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96566/rcmrepos.htm#446924
I do not understand why in Backup and Recovery Advanced User's Guide
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10734/rcmrepos.htm
"Back Up the Recovery Catalog Often"
Even if you have to restore the recovery catalog database using a control file autobackup, you can then use the full record of backups in your restored recovery catalog database to restore the target database without using a control file autobackup for the target database.
=>probably implies that we can use another recovery catalog let's call it backupbackup to restore the recovery catalog
"Choosing the Appropriate Method for Physical Backups"
Follow these guidelines when developing an RMAN backup strategy for the recovery catalog database:
* Run the recovery catalog database in ARCHIVELOG mode so that you can do point-in-time recovery if needed.
* Set the retention policy to a REDUNDANCY value greater than 1.
* Back up the database onto two separate media (for example, disk and tape).
* Run BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG at regular intervals, to a media manager if available, or just to disk.
* Do not use another recovery catalog as the repository for the backups.=> this contradicts the previous statement
* Configure the control file autobackup feature to ON.
so may I know what's the recommended guideline on backing up a recovery catalog? should we use another recovery catalog to keep the rman repositories of the the main primary catalog or just use a control file autobackup feature?
thanksI understand the question and the confusion.
Please note, however, that this forum is for discussing problems and errors with the documentation in general. Your question is related to a specific product and is, as far as I can tell, not a note about a documentation error or a correction.
The appropriate place to discuss this is the Database (General) forum or - perhaps surprisingly - the RMAN forum. These can both be found by
1) Clicking on the 'Forum Home' link at the top of this page;
2) Scrolling down to the category 'Database' (a category is identified by a special row format that does not list the number of topics)
3) Expanding the category by clicking on the 'More ...' link.
4) Scrolling down to the "Database - General" or "Recovery Manager" forum and clicking on it's link.
Note that forums have a search function that may be used to find answers if someone has already asked a similar question. -
Oracle 10g express edition recovery catalog
whether oracle 10g express edition spoort recovery catalog?
Yes you can; the answer is in the manual.
>
In general, the rules of RMAN compatibility are as follows:
<li>You can create 8.X or 9.X RMAN catalog schema in any Oracle database release 8.1.X (or higher) and Release 10g RMAN catalog schema in any Oracle database release 9.0.1 (or higher).</li>
<li>The recovery catalog schema version must be greater than or equal to the RMAN client version.</li>
<li>Ideally, the versions of the RMAN client and the target database should be the same (although there are other legal combinations, listed in Table B-1).</li>
<li>While backing up a Release 10g database using the 9.X RMAN client, you cannot include a controlfile that was created using compatible=10.0.0 in a datafile backupset. The workaround is to turn controlfile autobackup ON.</li>

Oracle 10.2.0.4 RMAN Duplicate without a Recovery Catalog
Production Backups are Tuesday - Sunday at 22:00:
RUN {
ALLOCATE CHANNEL c1 DEVICE TYPE DISK;
CROSSCHECK ARCHIVELOG ALL;
CROSSCHECK BACKUP;
DELETE NOPROMPT COPY OF ARCHIVELOG ALL COMPLETED BEFORE 'SYSDATE-2';
DELETE NOPROMPT BACKUP;
BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;
CROSSCHECK BACKUP;
RELEASE CHANNEL c1;
LIST BACKUPSET;
EOF
I have these files sent over to the development server on Wednesday, RMANbackup (log), backupset and the controlfile:
rcp -rp /backup/$1/flash_recovery/$2/RMANbackup/* kacdb4:/backup/common/flash_recovery/$2/RMANbackup
rcp -rp /backup/$1/flash_recovery/$2/backupset/* kacdb4:/backup/common/flash_recovery/$2/backupset
rcp -rp /backup/$1/flash_recovery/$2/controlfile/* kacdb4:/backup/common/flash_recovery/$2/controlfile
I run the RMAN Duplicate and the database gets created with no problems!
The question is: If I wait unit Thursday, to run the duplicate script, I get the traditional RMAN errors: RMAN-03002, RMAN-03015, RMAN-06026, RMAN-06023:

Recovery Manager complete.
Is this because of the 'SYSDATE-2' in the RMAN runlist? Does RMAN connect back to the target and it does not find the logs, because they've been deleted, it aborts the duplicate? I've shipped over the backupset and controlfile of the scn I'm using in the duplicate runlist all is there? If I'm trying to cleanup the archive area, would'nt 'delete expired archivelog all' in my runlist, be better than using the 'SYSDATE-2'?
Or is it because of this database parameter:
control_file_record_keep_time= 7, should I set this to say 14?
Is it one of these RMAN configurations:
Retention Policy to Redundancy 1, should I set this to say 7?
Datafile Backup Copies for Device Type Disk to 1, to say 3, this takes up disk space which is precious
Archivelog Backup Copies for Device Type Disk to 1, to say 3, this takes up disk space too
Archive deletion policy to none change this to the other option?
I've tested this a few times now, and always fails if the dupicate is not done the next day.
If I have to create a development database on a Friday from Tuesday's copy FROM TAPE, I will get the error, because the files are no longer on disk.
What can I do to ensure that I can create an RMAN duplicate any day of the week from Tuesday to Sunday?
Look forward to your answer.
Please let me know if I left any details out that you may need.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth BurnsHi Valentin,

Oracle RMAN recovery catalog database in a Primary and Standby mode
Hello All,
The customer wants the RMAN recovery catalog database to be highly available so that none of the RMAN database backup jobs are impacted at the time of taking the database backups. There are are 200+ databases running on OEL, RHEL and Windows. So we planned to host the recovery catalog database on Oracle Active DataGuard 11.2.0.1 Enterprise Edition on RedHat EL 5.8 version on two physical servers. The Primary Instance will be in one server in the Primary DC and the Standby Instance will be on another server in another DC. Also all the database datafiles are hosted in ASM Diskgroups on SAN (DATA, FRA, REDO, ARCH diskgroups).
Are there any specific RPM/patch/OS user custom/specific settings or configurations needed..?
Thanks in advance..
Regards,
Abhijit"The customer wants the RMAN recovery catalog database to be highly available so that none of the RMAN database backup jobs are impacted at the time of taking the database backups"
Hi,
i think you can achieve HA for the catalog DB. (Rac and Asm should work fine)
There's no way (afaik) to use TAF with the rman backup. If you have a failure during a backup it simply fails.
There is no TAF in this situation.
Hope this helps.
Regs,

Backup policy on Grid, using RMAN and Recovery Catalog.
Hello Gurus,
I'm trying to move ahead the new features of Oracle 10g in my company. So I've already created Grid Control and will deploy Agents/Targets during the next week. I also want to switch the backup process from the archaic exp/imp to RMAN with the Recovery Catalog.
My question is such: could anybody suggest the best book or text with solutions and descriptions of backup policy, using the Grid, RMAN and Catalog? What I want to do is to create eventually the powerful and centralized storage of every database in a company and do all daily routine from there. But as long as I'm only in the very beginning I want to gain some knowledge before the bad experience, like crashed recovery catalog and no backups for all databases :-)))
Definitely I'll keep existing imp/exp and hotbackup for a long time. I'm not going to substitute all our backup strategy with one catalog. I just want to understand what will be the best practice in the backup perspective.
And at all, I wonder if you please could give me very brief answer to this question: Let's say I have a huge monster with 5 disks by 500Gb RAD0+1. Is it a bad idea to store all of them in one physical machine before they will tape to backup or it could make sense? For me it sounds a bit scary, but probably if all made with the brain it's not a bad idea?
Please, send me to some valuable and good source (like Tom Kyte or Don Burleson) Unfortunately, I didn't find anything regard the backups itself. Only pretty much general thought.
Thanks a lot in advance.
M.great!
thanks a lot!
this is definitely valuable info and I'll read right away. but as far as understand they suggest to use Data Guard, Standby and RAC which are the best ways to prevent your environment from crash. But in reality (I mean in my company) nobody is going to move to RAC at this point and I'm not sure, that they will have a chance to do in the next year. they just aren't up to it.
what I'm looking for is probably some tips and hints about backups in more or less big environment, but not as big as Oracle itself :-) unfortunately, i'm the only DBA in my surrounding. i mean, i have no friends or mentors DBAs that could seat with me in a pub and pass theirs knowledge from generation to generation :-)))
but anyway, I'll devote this week-end to this link.
thanks a lot! -
Best tactic to migrate recovery catalog
#Recovery Catalog
Oracle9i 9.2.0.1.0
Windows 2003 Server - 32 bit
Our recovery catalog is an old one, we will upgrade this to 11g, but we will need to make a new server for him as well.
Correct me if i am wrong but one way should be just to create a new server, install oracle and database, and re-connect all recovery catalog users to this one, and make new backups on them to get information about backup in the new catalog.
However, should'nt it be possible to export the data from old recovery catalog , to new recovery catalog?
Please guide me to the best tactic

Using scheduler to directly execute rman script stored in recovery catalog
Hi everyone, I usually automate my rman backups using either cron or dbms_scheduler to call my rman scripts stored in a NIX sh file. Everything works fine but does anyone know how/if it's possible to call an rman script stored in the recovery catalog. Lets say I create a script in the catalog:
RMAN> create script showall
comment 'just an example for demonstration'
SHOW ALL;
Can I use dbms_scheduler to call that script directly? If so how and if not then how can I schedule this or any catalog stored script stored in the rman catalog. Searched all over the place but everything seems to point to having to leave Oracle to call either a .sh or .bat file.
Regards,
DaveHi Greg, think you are definately on the right track mate. Based on what you put I found this at:
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/12c/scheduler-enhancements-12cr1.php
It has the entire rman script in the pl/sql block but going to see if I can modify what's on that page and use what you put so instead of executing the entire script it will run something like:
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB(
job_name => 'RMAN_SHOW_ALL',
job_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
job_action => 'RMAN TARGET / CATALOG rman/password@ your_cat run {execute script showall;}'
END;
Or something similar with times etc for execution if possible as the mechanics are the same. Believe though that using the job_action parameter will be the answer and allow me to automate my daily etc backups at night.
Will let you know once it's done and mark as correct answer.

OEM 10g - Upgrade Recovery Catalog
Hello All,
I'm experiencing some difficulties when trying to upgrade my recovery catalog using Oracle's Enterprise Manager 10g and wanted to see if anyone could explain this error.
"+Error - Unable to retrieve the URL from repository. Check the specified target name and its corresponding target type. Other possible causes: remote EMD is not pointing to the web server, or remote target information has not bee loaded+."
What URL is the repository trying to use? Do I need to reinstall my repository using emca? Any assistance is appreciated.

Why SYS cannot be the owner of the recovery catalog
my question is why? i know SYS cannot be the owner of the recovery catalog as per oracle documentations and books.
why SYS cannot be the owner of the recovery catalog?Hi
SYS is like root/system admin for the database. It has to distribute jobs according to specific purpose. SYS could have been the owner of RMAN catalog but it does not make sense to keep it with SYS objects as it is easier to find all related catalog tables in a separate schema rather than combing with any other sys/system schema. The choice is logical.

How to install Recovery Catalog
Hi:
How to install the recovery catalog? I used the following commands from the menu and it didn't work:
connect rman/rman
@?/rdbms/admin/catrman
There is no catrman.sql exists.
Thank you very much.If you are using Oracle8i, make sure your compatibility is set to at least 8.1.0 and you are connected to the catalog database. Then type create catalog; at the RMAN command line.

Then, by definition, you did not successfully upgrade anything.
Open an SR at MyOracleSupport and ask them to advise you as to how to safely fix the mess.
If you follow a blog post and something goes terribly wrong who is going to lose their job? You or the blogger?oh no no, not going to follow blindly. JUst copy the command out and paste here so that i can show the command.
I am clearifying whether is there any thing i need pre- task. NOt too sure i need to shutdown completely, backup the rman catalog schema, etc.
