RMAN -06100: no channel to restore a backup or copy of datafile 51

Oracle 10.2.0.4
I am attempting to duplicate a database from a full backup that was written to tape. I connect to a catalog, the target, and an auxilliary database. I allocate channels for disk and allocate auxiliary channels. For testing purposes I am trying to restore one data file from tape to disk but get RMAN-06100.

RMAN-06026: some targets not found - aborting restore
RMAN-06100: no channel to restore a backup or copy of datafile 51

Here is some additional information:
6100, 1, "no channel to restore a backup or copy of datafile %d"
// *Cause: A datafile, tablespace, or database restore could not proceed
// because the backup of the indicated file exists on a device type
// that was not allocated for restore.
// *Action: None - this is an informational message. See message 6026 for
// further details.
what do i need to do to correct this: backup of the indicated file exists on a device type that was not allocated for restore

    anyone can help?

    use format command with backup.
    eg:-
    backup as compressed backupset database format '/u01/db/backup/%d_%I_%s_%T';
    if it is archivelog mode then
    backup as compressed backupset database format '/u01/db/backup/%d_%I_%s_%T' plus archivelog format '/u01/db/backup/%d_%I_%s_%T';
    then copy the backup to the auxiliary instance server.
    then try again the duplicate command.

    Hi,

    2-RMAN displays :

  • No backup or copy of datafile 4 found to restore Error ??

    Hi,
    I have a 2 Virtual machine with Oracle 10g on OEL.
    Let's say machine 1 is called : OEL-SOURCE MACHINE
    Let's say machine 1 is called : DR-TARGET MACHINE
    When i am trying to restore rman backup on 2 machine 'DR', it comes with the message "RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 4 found to restore"
    Here are the steps that i followed on Machine 1 i.e. OEL-SOURCE MACHINE :

    RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 2 found to restore
    RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 1 found to restoreSO MY QUESTION OR DOUBT IS WHY AT THE END IT FAILS THAT THERE IS NO BACKUP FOR DATAFILE 1,2,3,4 ??? AS WE CAN SEE ABOVE IT IS PRESENT IN MY BACKUPSET ??
    ANY IDEA /HINTS/TIPS ?
    I searched on google and somebody mentioned to a similar case that it could be a problem with 'CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP OFF' where as in my case i have set it to 'CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON'
    Somehow looks like that the control file is not having latest backup info ... :-( I already took a fresh backup 2 times and landed up in same issue.. not sure where i am doing a mistake.
    Regards
    Learner

    Meanwhile i also looked in the trace file folder to see if there are any clues. here goes the content of alert_log.file

    Thank for help.

    Hi,
    Can you please make sure the restore mechanism you are following is correct or not?
    Mechanics of Restore Operations
    RMAN automates the procedure for restoring files. You do not need to go into the operating system, locate the backup that you want to use, and manually copy files into the appropriate directories. When you issue a RESTORE command, RMAN directs a server session to restore the correct backups to either:
    * The default location, overwriting the files with the same name currently there
    * A new location, which you can specify with the SET NEWNAME command
    To restore a datafile, either mount the database or keep it open and take the datafile to be restored offline. When RMAN performs a restore, it creates the restored files as datafile image copies and records them in the repository.

    Hi,
    I'm testing RMAN Backup on a new database,I first tested the backup and backup was successful.Now thet I need to test restoring the backup i'm getting error msg below.
    "RMAN-06100: no channel to restore a backup or copy of datafile".
    I'm not sure if the command I use is wrong,here is wat I did.Pls correct me if i'm wrong.I run following script

    allocate auxiliary channel aux1 type 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS="BLKSIZE=262144";
    DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO DUP ;
    }

    I think there is no workaround and this is expected behavior - atleast till 10.2. If you refer oracle documentation, it says that it requires target database in either MOUNT or OPEN stage to duplicate database using RMAN. So RMAN will get current physical structure information about target database from its control file and when any file is not there in the backup, it will give error. Only way to resolve this is to take backup of these datafiles through RMAN either as backupset or copy. ( I think oracle can take hint from here and make RMAN database duplication possible for which backup is not available - its a small change in code - if backup not found, then start taking backup. Already in 11g, during RMAN duplication, RMAN can use backup from other server)

  • Block corruption - cant restore from backup

    Hi,
    we have development database 11.2.0.1. There was problem with storage, and as a result there are two corrupted blocks in data files.

    I have set up the backup using Enterprise Manager - Schedule Backup.
    What I need to know is how to avoid taking backup with corrupted blocks in future. I need such backup to fail.
    Thank you for advices and regards.

  • How restore RAMAN BACKUP

    HI ALL IAM VERY NEW TO ORACLE
    I TAKEN BACKUP..OF ORACLEDB BY USING RMAN
         RMAN> run{
         Allocate channel s1 type disk;
         Backup datafile ‘c:\MY\system01.dbf’ format ‘c:\MY\temp01.dbf’;
    Now i want restore this back what r the step needed to restore...
    1.Can i create DB in Distination server or RMAN IT SELF CREATE DB
    2.if suppose i create db that must be same structure of source db or simple format
    3.what r the pre-caution i suppose to take while restoreing

    Hi,
    in your example you don't backup the database, but only one datafile (by the way, it's not a good idea to name the backup file temp01.dbf, very likely this datafile belongs to the temporary tablespace, you destroy this datafile). You cannot use a single datafile to implement a second database on a second server.
    The command to backup a database running in noarchivemode is simply
    backup database; and in archivelog mode
    backup database plus archivelog;
    (There are a lot of other options, see the documentation here on OTN).

  • How to restore specific backup file from RMAN?

    Hi,
    I am just begginer with Oracle DB so I do not have a lot knowledge.
    I created two backups at April the 8th and April the 10th.
    I did following from RMAN.
    shutdown immediate
    startup mount
    configure channel 1 device type disk format '/opt/oracle/backup/std_%U';
    backup database
    startup
    output was:
    including current control file in backupset
    including current SPFILE in backupset
    it created two files: std-0so6l0vn(2 GB) and std_0to6l106 (7 MB).
    First question - first file is backup and what is the second file???
    Today I created also backup and it also created two files: std_0uo6morg (2GB) and std_0vo6morv (7MB)
    Now I want to return backup from 2 days ago (*std-0so6l0vn*) but can't;
    I do the the following:
    shutdown immediate
    startup mount
    restore database from '/opt/oracle/backup/std_0so6l0vn'
    but getting error - only SPFILE or control file can be restored from autobackup.
    How to restore my backup from two days ago? It looks to me so complicated and hardly understandable.
    What command to execute from RMAN to succeed in restore?
    Thank you

    And getting message:
