Restore Database to non-ASM Storage - Issue with Bigfile Tablespace

I have been testing a restore of my prod database that uses ASM (and oracle managed files) for storage to a different server and non-ASM storage. Oracle version is 10g EE. My database has one bigfile tablespace and it's datafile is about 250GB. The restore fails and it has something to do with the bigfile tablespace.
Here is the rman restore script:
run
set newname for datafile 1 to '/ora01/db/ehr/system01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 2 to '/ora01/db/ehr/undotbs01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 3 to '/ora01/db/ehr/sysaux01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 4 to '/ora01/db/ehr/undotbs02.dbf';
set newname for datafile 5 to '/ora01/db/ehr/users01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 6 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apolloaud01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 7 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apollohist01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 8 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apolloidx01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 9 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apollotab01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 10 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apollotab02.dbf';
set newname for datafile 11 to '/ora02/db/ehr/apollolob01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 12 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apollofdb01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 13 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apolloidx02.dbf';
set newname for datafile 14 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apolloidx03.dbf';
set newname for datafile 15 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apolloaud02.dbf';
set newname for datafile 16 to '/ora01/db/ehr/apollotab03.dbf';
set until sequence 60298 thread 2;
restore database;
switch datafile all;
recover database;
Datafile 11 is the datafile in the bigfile tablespace. Here are the weird things about the restore:
1. The restore output shows this:
creating datafile fno=11 name=/ora02/db/ehr/apollolob01.dbf
channel ORA_DISK_1: starting datafile backupset restore
channel ORA_DISK_1: specifying datafile(s) to restore from backup set
restoring datafile 00001 to /ora01/db/ehr/system01.dbf
restoring datafile 00002 to /ora01/db/ehr/undotbs01.dbf
restoring datafile 00003 to /ora01/db/ehr/sysaux01.dbf
restoring datafile 00004 to /ora01/db/ehr/undotbs02.dbf
restoring datafile 00005 to /ora01/db/ehr/users01.dbf
restoring datafile 00006 to /ora01/db/ehr/apolloaud01.dbf
restoring datafile 00007 to /ora01/db/ehr/apollohist01.dbf
restoring datafile 00008 to /ora01/db/ehr/apolloidx01.dbf
restoring datafile 00009 to /ora01/db/ehr/apollotab01.dbf
restoring datafile 00010 to /ora01/db/ehr/apollotab02.dbf
restoring datafile 00012 to /ora01/db/ehr/apollofdb01.dbf
restoring datafile 00013 to /ora01/db/ehr/apolloidx02.dbf
restoring datafile 00014 to /ora01/db/ehr/apolloidx03.dbf
restoring datafile 00015 to /ora01/db/ehr/apolloaud02.dbf
restoring datafile 00016 to /ora01/db/ehr/apollotab03.dbf
Why at the beginning is it "creating" datafile 11? Then it doesnt even say it is "restoring" that datafile. Only restoring datafiles 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,15, and 16.
When it creates datafile 11 it is only 26GB, that is much smaller than it should be according to v$datafile view on source prod database. Also even though it says it is creating datafile 11 as /ora02/db/ehr/apollolob01.dbf it actually creates it as an oracle managed file at /ora02/db/ehr/EHR/datafile/o1_mf_apollolo_6crxyqs2_.dbf
After the datafiles are restored the "switch datafile all" command fails:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of switch command at 10/18/2010 13:58:37

ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
Linux-x86_64 Error: 2: No such file or directory
Additional information: 3
So my question is how do I get this database restored to non-ASM (and non omf)?

So I tried using a different scn with my "set until scn #####" then the restore created 2 datafiles. The datafile for apollolob and apollotab02.dbf. So I think I have narrowed the problem to be that I am not using the correct scn number so RMAN can successfully restore those datafiles and recreates them instead. How do I find the correct scn to use to do a successful restore of the entire database? I have seen different methods on the web, but cant figure it out. Ive used "select archivelog_change#-1 from v$database;" and I also did "list backup of archivelog all" and used the latest sequence number. How can I find the correct scn to use so the entire database will restore?
Here is the output of "list backup":

Without backup and any old archivelog(more then last five days),IN RAC environment we are trying to recover one of datafile of our SYSAUX tablespace which is in RECOVER state.
sysaux tablespace having two datafile,while making online to second datafile it's asking for last month archivelogs which we dont have And while making online to SYSAUX tablespace it's giving error that one of your database datafile recquire recovery.
ORA-00279: change 195638767 generated at 08/10/2009 14:17:27 needed for thread 1 while recovering by auto

Clone ASM database to Non-ASM

Hello All,
I take a compressed backup of my ASM (apps) database with the following command
BACKUP AS COMPRESSED BACKUPSET INCREMENTAL LEVEL = 0 TAG = 'WEEKLY_DATABASE'
FORMAT '/backup/rman_weekly_%d_%T.%t_s%s_p%p' DATABASE;
I now need to clone this to an non-asm instance. When I try to restore the backup it creates the diskgroup path on the target instance for ex if the disk group is called DG1 it creates the patch '/u02/DG1/datafile/' and copies the files there with file names as 'o1_mf_apps_ts__65zyr174_.dbf'. It is not able to complete the restore as one of the datafiles cannot be restored as it keeps looking for the diskgroup path and errors out with
'Cannot restore +DG1/datafile/xxx.dbf' no ASM instance available, cannot connect to cluster manager.
Any pointers/help/steps would be appreciated.
Regards

You should rename files before restoring. Try something like the following (change paths/names with yours) :
run {
        allocate channel d1 type disk;
        set newname for datafile 1 to '/oradata/ORCL/system.dbf';
        set newname for datafile 2 to '/oradata/ORCL/undotbs1.dbf';
        set newname for datafile 3 to '/oradata/ORCL/sysaux.dbf';
        set newname for datafile 4 to '/oradata/ORCL/users.dbf';
        restore database;
        switch datafile all;
        release channel d1;
}

Move datafile from asm datafile database to non asm database

Hi Nice morning all DBA Guys, I want move datafile from asm database datafile to non asm configurated database. Hoe to move this?
Datafiles like this
+DATA/saico/datafile/users.259.631612183
+DATA/saico/datafile/DBA.XXX.XXXXXXXXX
Regards
S.Azar

The all files movement of asm to non-asm and vice-versa is given in document id 252219.1 on metalink. Please look at the same. In nut shell you have to do the following:
1. Start your database with ASM.
2. Create pfile from spfile.
3. Edit pfile to reflect controlfile name in file system location.
4. SQL> Startup nomount.
5. Use RMAN to copy the control file from ASM to NON-ASM.
RMAN> RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM '<filename_of_old_control_file>';
6. SQL> alter database mount;
7. Use RMAN to copy the database from ASM to NON-ASM.
RMAN> BACKUP AS COPY DATABASE format '/u01/oradata/nonasmdb/datafile/%U';
8. From RMAN
RMAN> SWITCH DATABASE TO COPY;

Oracle 10g RAC using ASM - Storage Issue

I’ve an issue related to Oracle 10g RAC.
I’ve 2 node cluster each being Dell 2850 Server with RHEL 4.0
I’ve EMC CX300 SAN storage with following partitions
/orasoft     10 Gb          OCFS2 File system
/oracrs          2 Gb          OCFS2 File system
/orabackup      100 Gb          OCFS2 File system
The datafiles are on ASM which is not directly visible in OS.
I’ve common Oracle Home installed in /orasoft/db_1 which is shared by both nodes in cluster.
I’ve faced an issue recently related to EMC storage.
The /orasoft partition displays 1.4 Gb space available using df command.
With both nodes sharing the common Oracle Home (/orasoft/db_1), when ever I try to touch a file I get an error as No Space left on device. I’m unable to start any service with the same reason.
Is this setup correct ??
Can anyone help me with this storage issue ??

Need a clarification here...what do you mean by "Storage System"...do you mean a server/node or the SAN storage system. If you are referring to a server/node's local storage, then it would NOT be possible for use by RAC, since the disk space has to be shared among the nodes.
Here is what you can do:
- Create two partitions/devices (for example Disk_1 and Disk_2) in the SAN storage
- Create a ASM disk group which would mirror Disk_1 to Disk_2.
Again, please note that the partitions have to be visible and be accessible read/write from both the nodes/servers.

Hi,
If you create a new diskgroup you may be to add the same diskgroup to parameter file or spfile and which will be needing down time.
sugestion: Instead of creating new diskgroup you should to add disk to existing group.if you add asm disk to existing group your all problem will be solved and Oracle itself will be managing all.And than i am sure no need to add entry in the parameter or spfile like +db_create_file_dest=.....

Restore database in the same server but with other sid (name)

i try to restore the database in the same server but with other sid (name) . The backup is on tape and
I want to know the steps I should follow.
thank.

To perform restore of database in same host to choose another DB name you can go for
1) duplicate using RMAN.
Directory structure should be different so take care of db_file_name_convert & log_file_name_convert parameters
Also check the Tns services exactly is it pointing to target & auxiliary

Broadcast and non-broadcast SSID issues with iPhones and iPads

We have a CIsco wireless infrastructure configured with a public broadcasted ssid and a private non-broadcast ssid that we are experiencing issues with the iPads and iPhones. The iPad or iPhone will switch between both ssids if defined but keep the original IP address when it switches to the non-broadcast ssid making it unusable. It shouldn't be switching at all technically. If the non-broadcast ssid is defined only on the iPhone or iPad, the broadcast ssid pops up and starts asking for authentication information. I have Cisco looking into this but I'm quite sure this is an Apple bug. Any other device works fine. We are currently using version 4.3.5(8L2) on the iPads and iPhones. I do know that if we broadcast both SSIDS, the issue goes away, but I don't want to do that. Although it doesn't really add any more security, it just isn't advertised, so most people won't see it and avoids a lot of questions. Hopefully there's a simple solution.
Any ideas apple guys?
Also how does one open an actual trouble ticket with apple?

RMAN level 0 backup with bigfile tablespaces

We noticed that our rman backup process for PROD database is not working properly.
PROD is a 8 TB size database having two bigfile tablespaces each having more than 2 TB datafile.
PROD is a 11gR1 (11.1.0.7) RAC database with ASM storage.
We are taking weekly incremental level 0 backup for entire database and level 1 backup every day.
As per v$session_longops, the approx completion time for the two tablespaces is 5 days.
We can use "SECTION SIZE" parameter to take rman backup for bigfile tablespaces and exclude them from the level 0 backup.
However, in this case our level 0 backup wont include the two bigfile tablespaces and the daily level 1 backup will not include them.
Will you pls advise us on how to take backup in this scenario.
we have only 4TB of LUN allocated for backup and have to keep 7 days of backup on disk.
Thanks in advance !
DR

We can use "SECTION SIZE" parameter to take rman backup for bigfile tablespaces and exclude them from the level 0 backup.
How do you think that the backup will be useful if you exclude some files from level 0 or base backup? You will find difficulties or you can't restore the database in case of disaster.
Yes you can use section size parameter for paralleled big file tablespace backup.
Check below for explanation and example.

Storage issues with the cloud?

the cloud back up is not possible on my Iphone 4S; error I receive is not enough storage on the cloud - need 3 more more GB available ; but I get a read out of total storage available 5.0 GB; avaialble; 4.7 GB available.

The message means that you need 3 GB more than curriently available - i.e 7.7 GB. Time to either buy more space on iCloud or remove stuff (like photos/videos) from the phone.
iOS: Improve backup and restore times by importing Camera Roll or Saved Photos

You could use import option show=y to capture import run statements and find CREATE TABLESPACE statements. Keep in mind your target database already has undo, temp system, etc. tablespaces so you do not need to precreate them. Then rerun import.

Non-asm to asm restore using duplicate

oracle version 11.2.0.2.0
hello guys a quick question, I am trying to restore a database from non-asm to asm. I want to know if the following will work with the duplicate database.
SET NEWNAME for DATAFILE '/clu15/oracle/database/PROD/dbf/NDX_PROD.dbf' to '+DGDEV1DBDATA03/database/DEV/dbf/NDX_PROD.dbf';
SET NEWNAME for DATAFILE '/clu15/oracle/database/PROD/dbf/NDX_PROD_01.dbf' to '+DGDEV1DBDATA03/database/DEV/dbf/NDX_PROD_01.dbf';
SET NEWNAME for DATAFILE '/clu15/oracle/database/PROD/dbf/NDX_PROD_02.dbf' to '+DGDEV1DBDATA03/database/DEV/dbf/NDX_PROD_02.dbf';
SET NEWNAME for DATAFILE '/clu15/oracle/database/PROD/dbf/NDX_PROD_03.dbf' to '+DGDEV1DBDATA03/database/DEV/dbf/NDX_PROD_03.dbf';
Thank You

This above will work.
If you want to use OFA architecture, you can just give
SET NEWNAME for DATAFILE '/clu15/oracle/database/PROD/dbf/NDX_PROD.dbf' to '+DGDEV1DBDATA03';
You can also set the parameter db_file_name_convert and log_file_name_convert.

When you are performing this task , is the ASM diskgroup "DATADG" mounted or existed.. try to figure out that first whether the diskgroup is mounted/existed or not .. And also when incomplete recovery is performed oracle creates the online redolog files when you start the db with resetlogs..
