Edited by: user13748341 on 14-jun-2011 6:52You RESTORE the files from the backup of those files
You RECOVER the files to a point in time from the archivelogs since the backup from which you restored.
Go to tahiti.oracle.com and spend some time in the Backup and Recovery manuals to get clear on the concept of "backup", "recover", and "restore".

I am not able to restore spfile from rman backup ;;;

Hi,
I would like to know few things
1. How are you setting the db_name ? you can set db_id at RMAN, how are you setting the db_name ?
2. Do you have any default init file at default location ? if yes, is the db_name parameter set correctly in that file ?
Since spfile is yet to be restored, you must set the db_name parameter correctly before you start spfile restore.This can be done with init file at default location which can even contain just one paremeter i.e db_name.

Restore tablespace from sbt_tape

Hi
by using list backup command I see that all the backups are in sbt_tape.
If I type
restore tablespace a;
Does ıt restore ıt dırectly from the tape into the database or do I have to take ıt from the sbt_tape manually on to the disk and restore ıt.

If you would have read the documentation (which, by default, and already for many months, you refuse to do), you would have noticed you need to configure a channel to the tape device, with proper parameters.
In that case you would have issued
restore tablespace ...
The other alternative doesn't exist, and shows that even after asking a plethora of doc questions, about RMAN, you still don't seem to understand anything of it.
Isn't it time you start reading those manuals?

Restore tablespace in RMAN is not working

Friends,
OS: RHEL AS 3.0
DB: 9iR2
New to RMAN
I am testing RMAN in our R&D server.
I just deleted one table in scott which is in the users tablespace.
then i went to rman.
SQL 'ALTER TABLESPACE users OFFLINE IMMEDIATE';
RESTORE TABLESPACE users;
RECOVER TABLESPACE users;
SQL 'ALTER TABLESPACE users ONLINE';
after that, i logged in to sqlplus as scott.
but i didnt find the table which i deleted.
I know i can restore the table by point in time recovery using SCN.
but why the above rman command is not working?
where im making mistake?
thanks

Hi there,
This wont work as the recovery you tried and did was a "complete recovery".The dropped table will come back with an "incomplete recovery".You just restored the datafile from the backup.Table drop is not an "error".You wanted it to happen , you did that.Its not an error for oracle.So you need to do "incomplete recovery".
I guess following might be useful for you.yo u need to recover till the time when the table was existing and you will lose data beyond that point.so thats why it is called incomplete recovery.

Backing up and restoring tablespaces with RMAN

We have some tables that we want to backup and other tables that we don't.
We are separating these tables by tablespaces and schema.
SchemaA uses tablespaceA
SchemaB uses tablespacesB
We are also backing up
sys
sysaux
undo
tablespaces.
Lets say we lose our tablespaces and do a restore. I am assuming that all my stored procedures can be restored no matter which schema I save them in. even if I save them in a schema that has a default tablespace that is not being backed up because the code in is in the System tablespace.
Is my assumption correct?

Here the key concept is Mean Time To Recover(MTTR), usually it is faster and easier to use an export backup file for this purpose, but this doesn't mean RMAN is bad :) RMAN was, is and will be the best practice for Oracle's B&R.
Still you may assist your RMAN backup with a daily norows export backup and also maybe a file system backup depending on your environment and application's need. Backup's backup do not harm :)

Restoring archives from rman backups

Undo tablespace recovery from RMAN backup

Hi,
Lets's assume we have RMAN backup and archivelog backups, and now
my undo tablespace's disk crashed ,how can i recover?
Can i recover while database is up?
Thanks,
Kumar.

to recover UNDO tablespace from RMAN backup you must shutdown the database and start it in the MOUNT state to recover the missing files as follows
rman target /
RUN
STARTUP MOUNT;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch3 TYPE Disk;
RESTORE datafile 'c:\u01\prod3\undo01.dbf';
RECOVER datafile 'c:\u01\prod3\undo01.dbf';
ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch3;
hope this will help you

Restoring only the tablespace from the database

How do we restore only a 'tablespace' from a Terabyte database without restoring the entire database.
ie... if a particular tablespace has been dropped from the database and we have the backup available for the database.
So, how do we go about it for restoring only that tablespace.

If you have a RMAN backup before dropping the tablespace then we can restore the tablespace by below method
It is a tablespace point in time recovery ,here we need to create a auxillary DB.
Recover a table/tablespace from Rman backup on same server:
===============================================
Here we have to create the auxillary database.
1.u should have valid backup of the database before dropping the tablespace.
2.create the password file of target database.
orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME\dbs\PWDORCL2.ORA password=oracle
3.Take backup of the control file to trace for creating the new control file for new
auxillary database/
SQL> alter database backup controlfile to trace;
sample control file:
STARTUP NOMOUNT
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "aux1" RESETLOGS FORCE LOGGING ARCHIVELOG

4.create the password file of auxillary database.
orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME\dbs\PWDORCL2.ORA password=oracle
5.create the control file
sqlplus "/as sysdba"
SQL>@create.sql
6 catalog all the backuppiece to the newly created database;
catalog backuppiece 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\LOG_707656915_50P1';
7.We have to restore system,sysaux,undo and the tablespace which was dropped
run
set newname for datafile 1 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\system01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 2 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\undotbs01.dbf';

set newname for datafile 4 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\users01.dbf';
restore tablespace SYSTEM;
restore tablespace UNDOTBS1;
restore tablespace users;
restore tablespace sysaux;
switch datafile all;
8.Take the other tablespace offline
sqlplus>alter tablespace tablespace_name offline drop;
9.recover the database prior to the time when tha table/tablespace was dropped.
RMAN> run{
2> set until time "to_date('07-01-2010 14:00:00','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')";
3> recover database;
4> }
10.open the database in resetlog mode.
take a transpotable tablespace backup of that tablespace and import it on the database where you dropped it.

I am not sure what you mean by "OS replication".
Whether you use RAC or a Failover Cluster, the database has to be on Shared Storage (which requires no "replication").
RAC licence costs are higher than that for a Failover Cluster because both instances have to licenced and the RAC option has to be purchased.
Of course, if the two nodes together are limited to 4 CPUs, you could consider Standard Edition to reduce the licencing costs.
DBA skills requirements are also higher for RAC.
With respect to your question "...will be sufficient for the avaialability purposes" it really depends on what your requirements are. People use RAC for Avaialability when it really is better positioned for Scalability. If you want only availability and can afford a few minutes downtime, and each node in the cluster can individually handle the user/batch loads, a Failover Cluster would suffice.
I suggest that you raise this question in the "Database - General" forum : General Database Discussions
or the "Real Application Clusters" forum : Real Application Clusters
"Replication" is the wrong forum for such a question.
When you do re-raise your question, please clarify your understinding of "OS replication".

How to restore TABLESPACE not in backup set?

I was playing with RMAN on one of my test databases. Here's what I did.
1) Performed full backup on an ARCHIVELOG enabled database
2) I created a table space named TBLSP
3) shutdown the database
4) Corrupted the only data file in TBLSP
5) startup
As you all guessed database won't open. I was pretty sure that if I restore last full backup and roll archive logs forward, I would be able to recover my corrupted tablespace.
6) rman target /
7) restore datafile 'D:\oracle\oradata\training\tmptbl01.dbf';
8) I get
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 14 found to restore
9) Then I tried following and both worked(?) fine.
RMAN> RESTORE DATABASE UNTIL TIME "TO_DATE('09/04/2006 12:20:00','MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS')";
RMAN> RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL TIME "TO_DATE('09/04/2006 12:20:00','MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS')";
10) Now I can do ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
Database is opened but I lost tblsp tablespace. What should I do to recover corrupted tablespace until its last consistent state.
Thanks...

From the error you received, I would assume you are not on 10g?
If you are on 10g, once you determine the tablespace containing the corrupted datafile, you could rename the datafile on the file system and issue the following in RMAN:
RMAN> startup mount;
RMAN> restore tablespace tblsp;
RMAN> recover tablespace tblsp;
RMAN> alter database open;or
RMAN> startup mount;
RMAN> restore datafile <corrupt_datafile_#>;
RMAN> recover datafile <corrupt_datafile_#>;
RMAN> alter database open;

Restoring from RMAN tablespace backup ; Few questions

11.2.0.3/RHEL 5.8
We have a RAC DB which is used by more than 20 applications. One schema for each application and one tablespace for each schema.
We have a schema with 130gb in size. All Objects in this schema use a single tablespace MCS_DATA.
This weekend we are applying some changes involving DDL, Code and Data .Usually we take an expdp backup of the schema before the activity starts and later if something goes wrong with script deployment we'll revert to old state by dropping the schema and doing an impdp from the expdp backup.
Question1.
Can we do an RMAN tablespace only backup and if something goes wrong with script deployment can we drop the schema and the tablespace and then create an empty schema and then restore from the tablespace backup ?
Question2.
If the above is possible , can you explain how it is going to work out because we are essentially plugging (restore,recover) in a tablespace to the database. Any potential problems ?
Question3. If the above (Question1) is possible, will restore/recover of this tablespace require a downtime for the entire DB ?

Tom;
If you are talking about RMAN TSPITR then yes you can. See - Purpose of RMAN TSPTIR in Backup and Recovery User's Guide E10642-03.
The problem with TSPTIR is bulk. You need a lot of disk space to create a copy and then data pump the information out and back in. I just tested this on 11.2.0.3 and its slow. RMAN created a script which produced an AUX instance and did the data pump, but I had clean up afterwards. If it errors out you can have an AUX instance hanging out in the background.
For TSPTIR you will need an area on the disk to server as an auxiliary destination large enough to hold what you are recovering plus the SYSTEM, UNDO and TEMP tablespaces.
I would probably look at Transportable tablespaces as a possible option too.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25054_01/backup.1111/e10642/rcmttbsb.htm
E10642-03 has a section for recovering a tablespace in chapter 2. The Tablespace must be offline, but the database can be up.
This uses "restore tablespace" and "recover tablespace" commands. You would perform this type of recovery when you are say missing a datafile. You can recover any tablespace except SYSTEM and UNDO with this.
Data Pump might be an option too, but given your tablespace size I would have worries about recovery time. Oracle lets you set compression
and a limit to each file produced.
expdp TABLESPACES=YOUR_DATA dumpfile=DATA_PUMP_DIR:ts_dumps_%U.dmp LOGFILE=DATA_PUMP_DIR:ts_dumps_log.log parallel=2 filesize=10G compression=ALL
Given the size of your database a better option might be something like Data Guard as your recovery time would be brutal.
