Restoring on a new host fails.

it is SOA Suite 10.1.3.1, and upgrade to 10.1.3.3.1.
this suite run on windows 2003.
I do the restoring action according to admin guide chapter 18.3.3
but when run the 3rd step:
bkp_restore.bat -m node_restore -o inst_register
it prompts:
Service Oracle-OracleSOAServerProcessManager in a state that can't be recreated.
Please remove it manually first.
I have checked, there is no Oracle-OracleSOAServerProcessManager service on the new host.
what does this means, and how to resolve? any suggestion?

Do this.
Stop services in A, make a copy of all Oracle Home, etc/oratab, /var/opt/oracle and so on
and coppy them to the B.
Then in B, restore the copy and make a chmod -R 750 for the complete ORACLE_HOME, then run the root.sh
After that, just make a little change in the host file, and put as an alias the name of A in B.
Then run the script $OH/chgip/scripts/chgiphost.sh -mid
and for the source use a and target use b for name and ip.
Check the log and if it's ok, just remove the name of A in the host file as alias.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

Help is needed in restoring DB to new host

Hello ,
I posted new thread two days ago , but yet, haven't succedded in restore my DB from host A to host b .
I need to do a test case , backup database at 11:00 , make some changes , (create / drop tables , whatever ) , take incremental level 1 at 11:15 , make more changes , plus another incremental level 1 backup at 11:30 .
At the end of that , I should try to to restore the Database called DB1 , into host b , for the changes made before the backup of 11:15 (that is , set until time ... 11:15) .
the problem is that I sit on that thing for about a week ,
and each time get another error at the end of the process when trying to run :
"recover database / recover database noredo" .
Here is what I do in host a :
[b]% setenv ORACLE_SID DB1

exit host a
Now I create same directories I have in host a , also in host b ,
I have my init.ora file from host a and put it in host b ,
and have all backups taken in host a , available in host b (got them through ftp) .
here comes my question , I look at the pdf books of oracle and do somthing like that in host b :
setenv ORACLE_SID DB1
% sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
SQL> startup nomount pfile=initDB1.ora
SQL> exit
% rman target / nocatalog
RMAN > set dbid 1206648960 ;
RMAN > restore controlfile from autobackup until time "to_date ('25-01-2007 10:35','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi')";
## to get back in time to the changes made before userb was created !
RMAN > alter database mount ;
RMAN > restore database ;
RMAN > recover database noredo ;
RMAN > alter database open resetlogs ;
I don't run the whole process in host b , cause the restore is written somewhere , and I don't know where , and in the next time I try to run the restore operation , I get another kind of error message , and have to start the whole thing from the begining .
what's wrong in my process ? it's either I got errors about my files that are older than the last time of the resetlogs , or the DB is recovered to its most current state , after the creation of userb .
please advice . what should I change in my process ? it has been 3 days that I fail to recover my DB , and all I do is taken from oracle tecnet or metalink site .
Thanks in advanced ,
Lior .

I think I found what was wrong .
when I use restore controlfile until time , it means that if I wrote 13:00 the recover should be at least to 13:01 (for example) .
meanwhile it works , I'm going to do some more tests to be sure .

9i Database - Restore to a new host, validating RMAN backup

Hi all,
I could use your help, for any of you who remember how to do this in 9i. On one of my production databases, running 9.2.0.6.0, I have a nightly RMAN script that writes the backup to a large shared drive (this is on a Windows 2003 server). This backup uses a recovery catalog.
I have a test server, and I want to try and restore last night's backup on this test server, without touching the recovery catalog - purely as a means to go through the recovery process, and to validate our backups (this is also for SOX compliance, as this database is for the financial system).
I have been looking through the 9i documentation, and was hoping to have some detailed steps here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96566/rcmrecov.htm#1007514
but I don't see a lot of information there.
I believe that this should be a rather simple process. On the test server, I have installed the 9.2.0.6 software, and created the Oracle Service using the same name as production. The test server can also see the shared drive that houses the backup files from the production system.
Here are the steps I am trying, please let me know what I need to change. Thanks all!!

RMAN-06172: no autobackup found or specified handle is not a valid copy or piece

Many thanks for the helpful replies so far, Hemant!! I had to shelve this issue for a few days, back at it today.
I have made some progress, I am able to restore the control file now - what I am doing, is copying the autobackup controlfile from the network drive over onto the server locally (E:\oracle\ora92\database\BACKUPCONTROL.ORA), then I am able to restore the controlfile with this:
restore controlfile from 'E:\oracle\ora92\database\BACKUPCONTROL.ORA';
And I can see that it restores all 3 of my controlfiles.
The next step would be to do the database restore. When I issue the "restore database;" command, I can see that it lists out all of the datafiles that it needs to restore from the backup set, but then after about a minute, I see these error messages pop up:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

ORA-27091: skgfqio: unable to queue I/O
ORA-27067: skgfdisp: size of buffer is invalid
OSD-04026: Invalid parameter passed.
When I looked up those last 2 error codes on Metalink, I see document ID 213858.1 that looks like this normally happens when the backup piece that has Read-Only permissions. I have confirmed that the backup files on the network drive are not Read-Only, I have full Read/Write privileges on them. So once again, I am stumped.
Any thoughts? I might go ahead and log an SR for this, to try and get it resolved.
Thanks!

Restore Database on New Host in Catalog mode

Dearest DBAs,
Here is RMAN configuration details,

Test Machine
I have taken the backup through RMAN and now want to restore the database using RMAN to a test machine. Where test database was already running and I have only removed the data files, control files and redo log files.
This document on the following link describes the steps
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmrecov002.htm#sthref723
I have connected to rman using following command
c:\>set oracle_sid=orcl
c:\>rman target rman/zaffar@rman nocatalog
rman>set dbid 111122
it gives me following error
RMAN-03002
RMAN-06188
but rman is running in catalog mode that disallow me to set the dbid of the target database and because of this I am unable to proceed further.
Kindly help.

RMAN Restore on a new system

Hi,
We are planning to impletment RMAN backups on our production systems. We took a RMAN backup and wanted to restore into another server using different sid and db name, without disturbing the running production database. We came across some errors and we need some help.
Oracle Version - 9.2.0.7
OS - Windows 2003
Envirnoment
=========
Host A - DB1
Host B - DB2 (Directory sturcture is different)
Host C - Catalog
Step 1. I took a full backup of DB1 on Host A connected to the catalog.
Step 2. Copied the pfile and backup files from Host A to Host B.
Step 3. Changed db_name, instance_name in Host B pfile.
Step 4. Created oracle instance using oradim utility.
Step 5. Started rman utiliy - rman target /
Step 6. Resorted Controlfile
Step 7. Mount database <---- Here we get an error
Let me know if the above steps are wrong.
RMAN> alter database mount;

ORA-01103: database name 'DB1' in controlfile is not 'DB2'The db name in the controlfile doesn't match the spfile/init file.
If the database is on a separate server, then you shouldn't need to worry about the db_name being the same. But if you are determined to have a new database name, you could restore the database with the same database name and then change it with the nid utility.

[HELP] Problem with restore and recovery to new host

Hi, guys!
I have been trying for two days, but still cannot get it to work.
I have taken a full hot(online) backup with archive logs as well as the control file and SPFILE, and then copied the backup to the new host with the same directory structure and settings. Finally, I have tried to restore & recover the database on the new host but failed during the restore process.
Both the original host and the new host have the same Oracle installed down to the patch level. I couldn't figure out the proper solution to this problem base on my limited knowledge about Oracle DB.
Could anyone help me out here? Any advice would be appreciated!

Thank you for your reply,Hemant K Chitale!

a) Does the directory structur exist on the new server :
D:\DBDATA\PRODDB\ --- for files 1 to 4
D:\ --- for file 5
D:\ORA_DATA\ --- for files 6 to 8

Yep, I have doubled check the directory structure that get in the way, and they are all exist.
Would it be something to do with the folder permissions?

b) Apparently a RESETLOGS has been issued on 07-Nov. Which controflile backup do you have restored and mounted on the new server ? It should be the one after the RESETLOGS.

I restored the one included with the backup. Should I take another backup of controlfile seperately and restore from it instead?

(I assume that you did a RESTORE CONTROLFILE followed by sql "alter database mount" before the attempt to RESTORE DATABASE)

Yep, that's exactly what I did.

Listener error while restoring to new host

I'm trying to restore a production database to a new host using a complete RMAN backup following these instructions:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmrecov.htm#i1006453
I'm trying to force the database to start in NOMOUNT so I can restore the control files, then the data files. I took a crack at editing the initialization file, but I'm not sure I got things right, as I'm trying to restore a single-node RAC to a non-RAC system. Both servers are Windows.
I'm getting the following error:

Do I need to pass in the source host name when configuring the channel? So instead of
send 'NB_ORA_SERV=pobackup01, NB_ORA_POLICY=jdeoracle, NB_ORA_SCHED=hotfull';
i would need,
send 'NB_ORA_SERV=pobackup01, NB_ORA_CLIENT=newhost, NB_ORA_POLICY=jdeoracle, NB_ORA_SCHED=hotfull';
??

Ok, problem solved. Here's the complete process for recovering a non-archivelog mode data base to a new host from a cold backup from veritas 6.5 tape library.
I used the "until time 'SYSDATE-5'" option because the cold backup was taken 5 days ago, and while rman will look back up to 7 days, it was taking forever to search for the autobackup. This let it start searching on the day the backup was made. The original problem I was having was due to the fact that the backup was taken from one host and the restore was going to another and I wasn't sending the old host name as the NB_ORA_CLIENT parameter. So it was searching backups from the new host for the data.

Restore Database with Oracle 9i with a New Host using RMAN

Gurus,
I am trying to restore a database from some RMAN created files on a new host with a new directory structure for some testing. I do not have access to the source database.
The database is Oracle 9i.
The files that have been created are the following:
'C-2995630462-20110214-00' is the control file and SP file backup.
'B_ABM4KAJ5_1_1' is the database backup.
B_ACM4KARS_1_1 and B_AAM4KAIV_1_1 are archived redo logs
Here is the RMAN listing from when the files were created:

I am new to using RMAN and I'm hoping someone could point me in a direction of some documentation to assist with the scenario described above. I've looked at several Oracle documents but have been unable to find a way to separate out the spfile from the control file.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks Meeran.
I have attempted to follow the directions from the RMAN document that you posted and have run into the following error:

Am I not correctly connected to the target?
It looks like it correctly tried to create a dummy spfile, but when attempting the restore from the file it breaks.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

Restoring Backup Set to New Host

Hi Team,
I am working on the RMAN Restore operation on the New Host.
I had taken the hot backup of my database (name :Test) with all ControlFile, DataFile, & Archivelog Files using RMAN backup command,
RMAN>backup database plus archivelog;
Now I want to restore this backup set on the New host.
So for this I have same Oracle 9i version installed in the same production path as it was there in the old host.
i.e same production path for oracle directory.. C:/oracle/
Now I had created the new database in this new host with the same name as Test and also the same passwords
Now if I am using my restore controlfile commands here then it works properly as ,
RMAN> restore controlfile from 'E:\Tempdest\CTL_C-315497057-20061017-01';
Starting restore at 17-OCT-06
allocated channel: ORA_DISK_1
channel ORA_DISK_1: sid=11 devtype=DISK
channel ORA_DISK_1: restoring controlfile
channel ORA_DISK_1: restore complete
replicating controlfile
input filename=D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\CONTROL01.CTL
output filename=D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\CONTROL02.CTL
output filename=D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\CONTROL03.CTL
Finished restore at 17-OCT-06
But if i mount the database to restore the datafiles it is giving me the following error.
RMAN> startup mount;
database is already started
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

Can anybody help in this?
Whether we have to backup the Password files also ?
plz comment..

You do not need to create the database on the new host ahead of time. However, since you are on Windows, you should create the Window's Oracle service with oradim.
If your intention is to simulate an actual restore to a different host, then you should refer to Restoring the Database to a New Host, otherwise Aron's link above should help.

Restore CSM 4.2 DB to CSM 4.3 DB brand new system - failed

Hi
Restore CSM 4.2 DB to a brand new CSM 4.3 patch 1 failed
I already tried 4 times backkups from the CSM 4.2 system to restore to the new CSM 4.3 patch 1 but all restores failed with :
uncommitted data
I read the install.guide about pending jobs and I think there are no pending jobs at the Backup
Can it be that I have to deinstall RME and MCP before I make a backup from the CSM 4.2 system to avoid the error : uncommitted data ?
sincerely

restore to CSM 4.3 works if I did the backup from the 4.2 system DB via CMD , If I backup the 4.2 system via the CSM GUI it did not work .

Restore to new host from tape

Hello!
Oracle 10.2.0.2
Linux x86 Red Hat Enterprise
Netbackup 6.0
Netbackup 6.0 MP5
Netbackup Oracle Agent
Production server; 2,5 TB
Hello
Id like to restore a backup from tape to another host
But i am having doubts regarding the restore script, ive done a channel for maintenance with success, so i think netbackup is okey installed.
Now i want to restore a backup to the new host, witch has been pre-configured with same catalogues, and oracle binaries.
Before this script i will manually restore spfile and put the database in nomount, and set DBID
run
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch0 type 'SBT_TAPE';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch1 type 'SBT_TAPE';
RESTORE controlfile from autobackup;
ALTER DATABASE mount;
RESTORE database;
RECOVER database;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch0;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch1;
}When i enter this script, i guess netbackup wont allow me to come and claim a backup from someone else, so i have configured netbackup master server to cllow restore to alternate host, and i have configured this new host to trick netbackup that he is the old one (NB_ORA_CLIENT), but im having doubts about the parms parameter in rman, i think i need to define the policy somewhere, but i dont know where. Have any of you completet a similiar task once, then maybe u can shed light on me.
Thanks!

Hi,
Have you tried the restore? If yes and any errors received, post them to get the help.
Some information is required to finalize the script.
Up to what time you want to restore and recover? depending on it, you have to use "set the until time " clause.
you are trying to restore control file from backup, so "RECOVER database" will not work. have to use "recover database using backup control file until scn/until time '<time>'/until scn". To know about all the options, refer manuals, metalink, etc.
in the env params, I guess policy is not required.
example script:
run
set until time "to_date('10-apr-2010 10:00:00','DD-mon-YYYY hh24:mi:ss')" ;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch0 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(NB_ORA_SERV=master_serv, NB_ORA_CLIENT=client_where_backup_was_taken)';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch1 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(NB_ORA_SERV=see above, NB_ORA_CLIENT=see above)';
RESTORE controlfile from autobackup;
ALTER DATABASE mount;
RESTORE database;
restore archive log from seq <start number> until seq <end seq> ;
RECOVER database using backup control file;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch0;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch1;
The archive logs required for recovery can be identified from your source database v$archived_log based on the recove until time.
Thanks,
SivaOk, i didnt think about that, i guess what i want to do is using backup controlfile until cancel. Wont he go into the tape and find the needed redo logs himself, i did not know that i needed to restore them to my disk before?
