Thanks in advance,

Hello;
I read your post and here's the thoughts that came to mind : ( my largest concern is you might restore something that damages your current system )
1. So you want to restore the whole DB back to 12/06/2012 to get some tablespaces from then right?
2. Are you restoring to a different system?
3. How did you start the database ( NOMOUNT, MOUNT )
4. If you are restoring the whole DB back to 12/06/2012 how did you restore the control file?
5. Your command shows :
restore tablespace SYSTEM,UNDO_GEN01,UNDO_GEN02,TAB_80K_GENCON,TAB_25M_GENCON;
COMMENT : Generally I use recover tablespace for point in time recovery and use an auxilary destination.
Meaning I don't use restore at all, in fact using restore may cause an issue.
SUMMARY : I don't see how this will work as is.
It seems you want data from five tablespaces from about six months ago including the SYSTEM tablespace.
This is an Incomplete Recovery. I believe I would rethink this completely.
Give the time that has past I would consider restoring the whole database to a different server where cannot damage anything.
Once this is done I would decide how to get the data I need.
Or I would check for a daily export file and recover the tablespace data that way.
So you have some good details on your question but it seems the plan is either missing something or you need to add a few more details.
Example
I'm recovering old tablespaces into a test system.
Here's how I'm not damaging my current production system.
I don't have an export from that date.
So take a step back and either rethink or give a few more details on how this is safe.

Database creation having a trace of the control file

Hi,
I want to move a database from one server let's say A to another server let's say B I have a copy of all the datafiles, redo logs, control files and init file of the database fron the server A. I have a trace of the control file.
I copied all these files on the server B in the location /dispecer_date/oradata, except init which is in ORACLE_HOME/dbs
I thought that the simplest method to recreate the database is from the backup of the control file writing in sql the command CREATE CONTROLFILE how is written in trace and replacing the word REUSE with the word SET in CREATE CONTROLFILE instruction.
I obtained an error:
ORA-01503: Create controlfile failed
ORA-01160: file is not a data file
ORA-01110: datafile: '/dispecer_date/oradata/system.dbf'
Why? The db_block_size parameter is 4096.
Thank you,
Mihaela

Here are the steps .....
sql > shutdown immediate ;
create identical dir structure on server b
copy all datafile,controlfile,redologfiles and pfile to target server ,And put them in same dir as of source.
now on taget server
sql > startup mountpfile = path of the pfile
sql > alter database opn
or
sql > alter database open resetlogs ;
this will do the trick, I don;t think recreating the controlfile is a good option hare , becuse you likly to loose some data if you stick on that one.

Recover database until cancel using backup controlfile Fails with ORA-01547

Hi
First of all, I'm sorry for posting in this community as my issue doesn't have any thing to do with Rman, but I couldn't find any more relative Community to post in
our System is Oracle EBS 11i and the OS on the production is AIX 5.2 / and the DR is 5.3 / DB version is 9i
we have our Oracle ERP scheduled using crontab to take a database COLD backup daily using gtar -cvzf .
yesterday I needed to clone the database only, so I used my usual method witch is
1) on the source SQL> alter database backup controlfile to trace as '<dest>/makecntrlfil.sql'
then you can delete the Commented header and change the first command from
"CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE <SOURCE> NORESETLOGS ..."
TO
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE <TARGET> RESETLOGS <NO>ARCHIVELOG
2) de-compress the tgz files
3) on the target edit the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init<source>.ora, $ORACLE_HOME/environment file
4)run /ORACLE_HOME/appsutils/clone/bin/adcfgclone.prl
5) delete old controlfiles
6) on the database run the script you created on firs t step to create a new control fole
7)recover database until cancel using backup controlfile
8) alter database open resetlogs
add new temp file system
this way I used to do it
but yesterday when trying to execute recover database it didn't work, and gave this error
ORA-00279: change 6450277404 generated at 02/28/2013 02:47:56 needed for thread

ORA-00289: suggestion : /ERPDEV/DBASE/devdb/9.2.0/dbs/arch1_188462.dbf

ORA-01152: file 1 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/ERPDEV/DBASE/SYS/devdata/system01.dbf'
nothing strange in the original alert log file in the time of taking the backup
So can You please tell me what maybe wrong and why it used to work before and now it's not
take in consideration that we are on archive log mode, but not using Rman or the archived Logs for backup and the sequence it needed ( 188462 ) is too old and already deleted on Production.

Contact your help desk with this information: cannot create connection file "CitrixID"

Has anyone overcome an issue with logging in to a Citrix server and getting the following message: Contact your help desk with this information: cannot create connection file “CitrixID”? I can log on, but once logged in, the apps available to me will not launch. All worked fine before I upgraded to OS X Mavericks. I do a lot of foreign travel and Citrix kept me connected to the office. Unfortunately, our IT team aren't really "Mac Guys" so they are just as perplexed as I am. I have deleted and deleted Citrix Receiver several times as posts on other sites recommended, but to no avail.

There are some discussions on the citrix forum that may help if you haven't already seen them. Here are two and there are likely more:

RMAN via OEM: Skipping days with incremental backups

Hello,
I've searched the forums and browsed much of the documentation on OTN but have not found the answer to my question. I am using RMAN (through Oracle Enterprise Manager) to schedule backups. I want to get full database backups on Fridays and incrementals Monday through Thursday. I would like to have the backups running at 11 PM each night. I have scheduled the full database backups to occur every Friday. The problem is I cannot schedule the incrementals to skip Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I don't want incrementals on Friday since the full database backup will be running. No transactions are occurring on Saturday or Sunday so there is no need to backup on those days either.
Thank you for any help,
Paul Lohr

You have had issues with FileID 74 earlier
[RMAN] problem with registering database

RECOVER IMAGE COPY WITH INCRMENTAL BACKUP

dear all
i want to know what this comand do
recover copy of datafile 4 with tag ' ';
is this when take backup copy to datafile and i have incremental backup
when corruption occurs i write this command
instead of restore and recovery only this command is make the restore and applay incremental backup ???
MANY THANKS

there are some recovery scenarios.
1- If you lost all datafiles
SQL> startup mount;
RMAN> restore database;
RMAN> recover database;
SQL> alter database open;
2- if you lost a tablespace
SQL> alter tablespace users offline;
RMAN> restore tablespace users;
RMAN> recover tablespace users;
SQL> alter tablespace users online;
if you can not offline tablespace then
$ sqlplus “/ as sysdba”
SQL> shutdown abort;
SQL> startup mount;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> restore tablespace users;
RMAN> recover tablespace users;
SQL> alter database open;
3- if you lost a datafile
SQL> alter database datafile '/oracle/oradata/users.dbf' offline;
RMAN> restore datafile '/oracle/oradata/users.dbf'
RMAN> recover datafile '/oracle/oradata/users.dbf'
SQL> alter database datafile '/oracle/oradata/users.dbf' online;
if you cannot offline datafile then
$ sqlplus “/ as sysdba”
SQL> shutdown abort;
SQL> startup mount;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> restore datafile '/oracle/oradata/users.dbf';
RMAN> recover datafile '/oracle/oradata/users.dbf';
SQL> alter database open;
4- if you lost your controlfile
$ sqlplus “/ as sysdba”
SQL> shutdown abort;
SQL> startup nomount;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> set dbid = 3970640872;
RMAN> restore controlfile;
SQL> alter database mount;
SQL> alter database open;
you will receive an error ORA-01589 when you open database
ORA-01589: must use RESETLOGS or NORESETLOGS option for database open
In this situation you must do;
SQL> shutdown abort;
SQL> startup mount;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> recover database;
SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
RMAN> reset database;
if you open database with resetlogs, SCN number will be zero. In this situation all previous backups will be invalid. You must full backup.
5- May be a special situation. You need to incomplete recovery.
A. Time-Based incomplete recovery;
$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
SQL> shutdown abort;
SQL> startup mount;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> restore database until time "to_date('06/05/11 12:0:00','DD/MM/YY HH24:MI:SS')";
RMAN> recover database until time "to_date('06/05/11 12:0:00','DD/MM/YY HH24:MI:SS')";
SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
B. SCN-Based incomplete recovery;
$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
SQL> shutdown abort;
SQL> startup mount;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> restore database until scn 1000;
RMAN> recover database until scn 1000;
SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
C. archive log sequence based incomplete recovery;
$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
SQL> shutdown abort;
SQL> startup mount;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> restore database until sequence 9923;
RMAN> recover database until sequence 9923;
SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
6- if you need some archive logs in your backup
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN> restore ARCHIVELOG FROM TIME 'SYSDATE-1' UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE';
Or
RMAN> restore ARCHIVELOG FROM TIME "to_date('07/11/05 00:00:01','MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS')
UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE';
7- if your data block is corrupted you will receive an error below.
Hata:
ORA-01578: ORACLE data block corrupted (file # 8, block # 13)
ORA-01110: data file 8: '/oracle/oradata/users.dbf'
for recover data block;
$ rman target / catalog_user/ catalog_user_password@catalogdb
RMAN>blockrecover datafile 8 block 13;
For Block-Level Media Recovery - Concept & Example (Doc ID 144911.1)
8- if you have a image copy backup and your datafile number 2 has problems then you can switch datafile number2 to image copy.
RMAN>sql ‘alter database datafile 2 offline’;
RMAN>switch datafile 2 to copy;
RMAN>recover datafile 2;
RMAN>sql ‘alter database datafile 2 online’;

RMAN backups running slow with Catalog , Running fine using control file.

I am facing a weird scenario
RMAN backups are running fine with Control file but are failing using Catalog
There are other databases configured on the same catalog and they are running fine leaves us to suspect this is issue with Database.
Can you please suggest what need to be checked in such scenario
DB: 11.2.0.2
OS: Aix 6.1
Catalog : 11.2.0.2

Hi,
Basically its not only with backups, simple list incarnation also taking a lot of timeDo sql tracing on your catalog session and target db session while running the 'list incarnation' command for your problem dbs and a normal dbs.

Problems creating control file in RMAN duplicate database

There is so much detail involved in this operation that I don't know what might be useful, so I'll start simple. I'm attempting to clone a database on the same host using RMAN "duplicate database". I finally got all the setup done, the OS authentication hurdles hurdled, etc. and entered the command:
duplicate target database to COPYCH2M until time "to_date('March 15 2012 12:00:00', 'Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";
The first time I got:
ORA-19504: failed to create file "/u01/app/oracle/oradata/COPYCH2M/control01.ctl"
ORA-27040: file create error, unable to create file
Linux-x86_64 Error: 2: No such file or directory
There was nothing in the Oracle instructions about manually creating the directory, but I did so, thinking that might be the problem. And it created the control files! But then I got the following:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of Duplicate Db command at 05/21/2012 15:59:25
RMAN-03015: error occurred in stored script Memory Script
RMAN-06136: ORACLE error from auxiliary database: ORA-00201: control file version 11.2.0.0.0 incompatible with ORACLE version 11.1.0.1.0
ORA-00202: control file: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/COPYCH2M/control01.ctl'
Sounds straightforward, if frustrating, right? Apparently you can't duplicate a database that's not in the exact same version. But:
1) The backuppiece we got the control file from was from last November.
2) The version of Oracle has not been updated since that time.
How can a file created by this version be incompatible with this version? Where is it even getting 11.1?
Thanks, I'm hoping this is easy but I can post more info if needed.

Keep going, you'll get there. RMAN duplicate is a great feature.
Good luck.

Only a cold datafile backup. No control files, redo files, archived redo

Hi everyone,
I made a stupid mistake and am in a bad condition with only a cold database backup without control files, redo files and archived redo files. My oracle database is oracle 9i. Is there any way to get my data back?
Thanks,
Yanping

Hi,
Have you a backup trace of a Control File ??
You can try perform this:
eg:
oracle@linux:/u01> cp -a /backup/*.dbf /u01/oradata/DB01

Problems creating control file (duplicated database)

Hello,
We're duplicated database but some datafiles weren't added on controlfile creation script, so I need to recreate controlfiles again with missed data files.
I launched controlfile creation script but I get the following error:

Problems are just with missed datafiles.
Should I REUSE or just SET database?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Search multiple folders for files with same name and create single file

I have a project where I need to search multiple folders for a file name and when found append data from each file to a single input file.
Example
root folder to start search
\\servera\sales
\\servera\it\salesa\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesb\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesc\cmmstr.txt
I need to create a a single cmmstr.txt on the root folder. I would like it to be able to run this with parms to pass in folders to search and file names to search and single file name to create. I'm going to have a least 10 differnt files to
search for and create output file for. The folders to search
will somewhat be static.
Thanks.

I tested this out on my own seat and I think it should work for you. I wrote it as a function, all you have to do is pass the root folders you want to search and the file your looking for. The function will then search that directory and all sub directories
for that file name. you will also have to provide it a file to append to, if the file dosen't exists the function will create it. If you run into an issues let me know and the links Mike
Laughlin posted are a great resource.
Function Search-Files{
Param([String[]]$Locations, $SearchFor, $AppendTo)
Begin
If(-Not (Test-Path $AppendTo)){New-Item $AppendTo -ItemType File -Force}
Process
ForEach($Location in $Locations)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
ForEach($File in $Files)
Get-Content -Path $FIles.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
End{}
Search-Files -Locations "\\Server1\c$\Temp", "\\Server1\c$\Test1" -SearchFor "Install.cmd" -AppendTo "C:\Temp\Search.log"

Recover databases synchronized with CDC

Hi,
I need to define a mechanism with RMAN to backup two databases where information is copied from one to another by using Oracle Data Integrator CDC.
How can I backup and recover both databases and it still sync?
Thanks
Homero

HI Doug,
I think I figured out what causes the error here.
You are using a parallel medium for backup and restore.
When you start the recovery e.g. via db_activate recover <MEDIUM NAME> you get a reply from the dbm server as soon as the first data stream has been completely read.
And since (obviously) not all of the parallel data streams (could be files, could be pipes) can be finished at the exact same point in time, there will always be pages left to be read when the first stream is done.
That's exactly what the -8020 message tells you here.
It says "Hey, the first data stream is done and there is still more to be read".
But - you already started the other streams since they are part of the parallel medium.
So there is no need at all to manually add them with recover_replace.
Instead all you've to do is to wait until the rest of the data is processed.
To tell the dbm server this the command [recover_ignore|http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_6/30/f7c7e35be311d4aa1500a0c9430730/content.htm] is used.
Even more comfortable would be to use the AUTOIGNORE flag when starting the recovery.
Finally, the best option would be not to perform the recovery via DBMCLI at all.
Use the GUI tools. They have all the knowledge build in. They are simple and easy to use and give you all the options that you have with DBMCLI.
regards,
Lars

Recovering System datafile with no backup.

I am simulating a scenario where in i lost a system datafile and i dint take any back up. The database i sin archive mode.Now i wanted to recover the database.I have googled everywhere and tried different things,but i am not able to recover it. can anybody please provide me a step by step process to recover the system datafile. DO we have to recreate the database?

:Please make sure that you read the docs before attempting to create issues as most of the issues are very well documented in the docs. For the recovery of the System tablespace, you need to have a backup and if you have only one datafile in the system tablespace or first dataflie of the System tablespace is lost, you can't get it through the create datafile clause.

Help Required with HD Backup

Hi,
A Friend of mine has a PC with windows on 2x Samsung 320gb HD's in Raid 0, one of the drives started to fail, so he put in his 1tb backup drive that he made a hd image using boot it dos software. He has now purchased 2x Corsair M4 128gb SSD's and made a volume Raid 0, when trying to backup from the 1tb drive the software says that a min hd of approx 320gb is required even though the total used on windows in only approx 140gb. and the new SSD volume is approx 240gb
The software is by terrabyte.
also when we did a hd tach with 1x ssd and 2x ssd the performance was similar, not mutch gain. I am not familiar with SSD or HD image backups so please advise. or is there any other software recomendations.
Thanks

Well most software imaging requires the same size as the source. What in the
world is the objective of a RAID 0 boot disk. As has been said here while it
may help load a program faster, it will not run the program faster
Also HDtach is not a good benchmark for SSD's
