if I require to restore full backup or some of datafiles from previous date backup example today is 19th march 2012 and I need to restore 8th march 2012 backup
how could I get this using rman?
Thanks

Actually it has been dropped a table by mistake by develpor one week before and we must need to recover that table using rman because we are taking backup by rman on tape and fyi tivoli is not configured on other server so we canot restore the backup to other server and try to recover table, I can only restore the backup on same server where the table is dropped. please suggest how could i recover that table in this scenario?

Many ThanksThe only way to recover an individual table from a backup is to restore that backup to a 'throwaway' database, then take an export of the one table, then import that back into the real database.
rman backup backs up and restores files, not individual database objects.

How to find out when last rman backup was made in 9i

Hello,
i have an oracle 9i database running on windows here. Is there a way to find out when the last rman backup was done with a sql query?
I would like to create a job inside the database that regulary checks if a rman backup ran sucessfully instead of using scripts in the operating system.
But i only know about commands in the rman utility (that i can not execute as a job, right?) - is something similar possible with for example sqlplus?

Problem in recovery from RMAN backup in case of disk failure

Hi
I have Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 on Windows. Full Hot RMAN backup of database is scheduled on daily basis. I am taking backup on disks. And then i do manually copy them on tapes. If any disk failure occurs than can i recover database completely in this scenario. If tried restoing that backup on different machine as given below
set ORACLE_SID=<name>
rman target sys/<pwd>@ORACLE_SID nocatalog
startup nomount
restore spfile
create pfile from spfile
startup nomount pfile
alter database mount
restore database
Everything worked fine till above steps. Now i will execute last step.
recover database
Here it gives error:-RMAN-06054: media recovery requesting unknown log: thread 1 scn 264750
Still i typed
alter database open resetlogs
Now i can open my database, But is it recovered completely? Or there is loss of some data? Why it is giving this error?
Thanks in advance. Waiting for reply.

I can understand the confusion with this whole concept.
What I meant by all archivelogs is all the archivelogs that were backed up with the backup itself. Again, it is essential to ensure that you archive the current redo log AFTER the backup is performed and then back those archivelogs too. Good thing is, RMAN will take care of this for you if you backup the archivelogs with the BACKUP DATABASE command and/or backup the archivelogs AFTER you run the BACKUP DATABASE command.
Once you've mounted the controlfile and CATALOG the archivelogs, you can go into SQL*Plus and issue the following query:
select SEQUENCE#, FIRST_CHANGE#, NEXT_CHANGE# from v$archived_log
order by FIRST_TIME;This will tell you what archivelog is the latest. Logs generated during the backup may also provide the necessary information. Performing Disaster Recovery should help to understand the full process.
The ONLINELOG directory in FRA is only populated if you've configured your redo logs to be stored there. However, you are on 9i...right? If so 9i doesn't utilize a FRA.

10.1.0.2.0 RMAN backup- What would cause RMAN to hang?

Oracle gurus- Fellow in trouble, need your guidance.
I have a serious issue that has no direct error to examine or fix.
I have a replicated offline server that has a scripted RMAN backup to run nightly, but the backup times flux from what should be only 1 hour 30 minutes. Every other day it takes up to 10 hours to complete a backup that normally takes 1 hr 30 minutes. There is no difference in data loads- the server is offline and the data has not changed to any effect. I use database control instead of grid control, and I turn off emctl every night before the rman backup- I thought maybe emctl was hogging resources. There is nothing else running on the server except replication inserting a couple of rows of data on three tables every other minute.
Where would I look to see where the problem exists when no errors are generated?
Does RMAN wait to backup files if they are being accessed?
Here is my backup script (the OS is Linux AS3) I run an AT job nightly.
at -f /path/path/rman_backup 0600 tomorrow
rman target/
run {
backup database plus archivelog;
delete noprompt obsolete;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
exit;
The Administrators are running a Legato Jukebox backup? a tape backup that backs up my DB files nightly. They run the Legato backup 3 hours after my RMAN backup- the problem is that my RMAN backup may be running during the Legato backup- so I assume that contention occurs and both backups fight for the DB files. This is not an issue when RMAN plays nice and finishes in the normal 1 hour 30 minutes, but when it exceeds 3 hours- we have serious issues, both RMAN and Legato backups take 10 hours.
Please help, I am really puzzled. This is causing me major headaches, how can I assure that RMAN has a consistent backup time to completion. Is there anyway to script it to use more resources to ensure it finishes quickly?

Have you monitored CPU and I/O during this process? Are there any other processes running during this time? You mentioned the server is offline, but you also mentioned replication is taking place ?
You could query V$BACKUP_ASYNC_IO and look at EFFECTIVE_BYTES_PER_SECOND, WAITS and IO_COUNT.
During the backup, you can run the following query to monitor RMAN:
SELECT sid, serial#, context, sofar, totalwork,
     round(sofar/totalwork*100,2) "% Complete"
     FROM v$session_longops
     WHERE opname LIKE 'RMAN%'
     AND opname NOT LIKE '%aggregate%'
     AND totalwork != 0
     AND sofar <> totalwork;If the % Complete doesn't seem to be increasing, you should run the following select to determine what waits exist:
SELECT sid, seconds_in_wait AS sec_wait, event FROM v$session_wait
     WHERE wait_time = 0
     ORDER BY sid;

Restore RMAN from different Database Rman backup

Hi Everybody
I am practicing Rman so I have one query that how to restore rman backup from another database.
For Example :
1. I have Rman backup of DB1 with level 0 and level 1 cumulative database plus archievelog
2. I need to import or restore Rman backup of DB1 to another database DB2.
What is the procedure for doing the above queries. Please anyone one help me out.
I have using oracle 10g r2 running in windows server 2003.
Thanks in advance.

These are the steps ; you need to write the appropiate commands for each step: Hope it helps!
1) Take appropriate RMAN backup of the database db1. Note that you should turn on the CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP configuration so that we have the controlfile backed up after the database backup. When we restore the controlfile on new host from this autobackup piece, it will have the information of the latest backup.
2) Create a PFILE for the destination database db2 using the database db1
3) Move the backup pieces and the modified INIT.ORA file to the new host. Starting from 10g it is NO longer compulsory to copy the RMAN backup pieces to exactly the same location on the new host as the production location.
4) Use the pfile created above to STARTUP NOMOUNT the database on the new host
5) Now invoke RMAN and restore the controlfile specifying the location where the controlfile autobackup piece is restored on this new server. You can mount the database once the controlfile is restored successfully.
6) You can skip this step if you have restored the RMAN backup pieces to exactly the same location they were backed up on database db1. If this is not the case then you need to catalog the RMAN backup pieces to make RMAN aware of thier new location on the new host. Note that CATALOG BACKUPPIECE command is available only starting from 10g.
7) Having determined the point up to which media recovery should run, start the restore/recovery using for example:
RMAN> run {
2> set until sequence 59 thread 1;
3> set newname for datafile 1 to '/new_location/system01.dbf';
4> set newname for datafile 2 to '/new_location/undotbs01.dbf';
5> set newname for datafile 3 to '/new_location/sysaux01.dbf';
6> set newname for datafile 4 to '/new_location/users01.dbf';
7> restore database;
8> switch datafile all;
9> recover database;
10> }

RMAN backup in RAC failing with error ORA-19566

Hi all, i have 2 node RAC and i am trying to take rman backup of the database which is in ASM filesystem.
There is a corruption in SYSAUX file and rman is failing to take backup of the sysaux datafile and error thrown at the end like

Then i tried to validate the backup in rman of the datafile sysaux nad fired the following query

and found all the blocks in the table WRH$_SQL_PLAN.
Then dropped the table, and tried to take backup of the database and it is failing again with the same error..
ANY SOLUTION TO TAKE BACKUP OF THE DATABASE.
anyhow we can SET MAXCORRUPT FOR DATAFILE 3 to value, but does this works all time...
Thanks in advance,

Both are good suggestions, but

How to verify RMAN backup ?

How to verify and validate the RMAN backups on daily basis?One more doubt at this point - if we can't locate any RMAN script in crontab(crontab -l) but still backup is occuring regularly, how can we see the script behind this?
Thanks in advance.

What you want see? If backup was executed without error or make sure that there is a valid backup on tape or disk.
So, If you want see if backup was executed successfull you must find the logs of backup or query "V$RMAN_OUTPUT" (check it on documentation).
If you want check if Database is Valid on Disk or TAPE as mentioned previously "RESTORE VALIDATE DATABASE" (check it on documentation).
Where we can locate RMAN SCRIPT? It's hard to answer.
It' your env, you should find out. The options are: Crontab / Oracle Enteprise Manager / Third-Party Backup Software / Job Scheduler.
Also you can try : Take a time of backup was executed and check on shell a time of exection of backup " ps -ef |grep rman" you will find from where script was started.

Negative impact of RATE parameter in RMAN backups.. ?

Hello all..
Can u please tel me about the negative impact of rate parameter in RMAN backups.
Thanks in advance,,
Thanks & Regards
Vinay Raj Malla

Hi Jorgen,
there's no rule of thumb, because every application is different, also the users behaviour...
- every user needs an initial amount of memory while logged in (user context
- then there comes the amount of memory while working with the application
- then it depends if when for example a query is finished the memory gets freed up or if it will be held in memory
- the behaviour of the user if he logs out correctly (memory is freed up) or just closes the browser (memory still in use until timeout occurs)
So the best would be to simply monitor your system with SM04, there you can also click on GOTO -> MEMORY and you'll see the amount of memory for each user. Look what happens when a user works with the application and also what happens when a user closes the browser.
Regards,
Pascal

SQL to find rman backup files required for recovery?

Hi folks,
I'm looking for a sql statement that I can use to query the database and return a list of the RMAN backup files needed for a successful recovery based on a SCN or a point in time. I want to do it through SQL (not though rman) because I want to script an automated refresh process. My databases are backed up online, so I would need any archive log backups done during the database backup as well. So for example...
I do a database backup
Then do an archive log backup.
Pass a SQL script the lowest and highest scn numbers during the backup.
It returns a list of the rman backup pieces needed to do a successful recovery.
I've got a script, below, which shows the lowest and highest scn during the last full backup (all datafiles which exist have been backed up), if someone understands what I'm looking for and has done something similar, I would really appreciate any insight you may have. What I'd want to get back from the SQL is the names of the rman backup files (handles) which would be needed to get the database recovered to the highest scn during the backup.
SELECT MIN(VBD.CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#), MAX(VBD.CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#)
FROM V$BACKUP_DATAFILE VBD, V$DATAFILE VDF,
(SELECT
CREATION_CHANGE#,
MAX(COMPLETION_TIME) COMPLETION_TIME
FROM V$BACKUP_DATAFILE
WHERE CREATION_CHANGE# IN (
SELECT CREATION_CHANGE# FROM V$DATAFILE)
GROUP BY CREATION_CHANGE#
) QUERY1
WHERE VBD.CREATION_CHANGE# = VDF.CREATION_CHANGE#
AND VBD.CREATION_CHANGE# = QUERY1.CREATION_CHANGE#
AND VBD.COMPLETION_TIME = QUERY1.COMPLETION_TIME;
Thanks very much for your time,
-Adam vonNieda

In case anyone's wondering, here's the answer. The following query returns the min and max SCN numbers contained in the last online backup.
SELECT MIN(VBD.CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#), MAX(VBD.CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#)
FROM V$BACKUP_DATAFILE VBD, V$DATAFILE VDF,
(SELECT
CREATION_CHANGE#,
MAX(COMPLETION_TIME) COMPLETION_TIME
FROM V$BACKUP_DATAFILE
WHERE CREATION_CHANGE# IN (
SELECT CREATION_CHANGE# FROM V$DATAFILE)
GROUP BY CREATION_CHANGE#
) QUERY1
WHERE VBD.CREATION_CHANGE# = VDF.CREATION_CHANGE#
AND VBD.CREATION_CHANGE# = QUERY1.CREATION_CHANGE#
AND VBD.COMPLETION_TIME = QUERY1.COMPLETION_TIME;
This next one gets the session key for that backup.
Select distinct session_key from v$backup_datafile_details
where checkpoint_change# >= <min scn# from above> and checkpoint_change# <= <max scn# from above>;
And finally, this one returns all files written out during that RMAN session, which includes control files, data files, and archived redo logs
Select handle from v$backup_piece_details
where session_key = <session key from above> order by completion_time;

Hi,
Happy new year for you too!!!
From Metalink Note:105208.1:
There is no 'magic' formula to calculate the storage space of an RMAN backup
and there is no query that will give you a space estimate.
So, the best answer is: "Try it and see how much is used."

Restoring of rman backup

Hi all,
i got a scenerion where i need to check whether rman back is valid or not.
i have y server where production db resides and storage team kept the 7 days old rman backup in the same production server and my resposibility is to reatore the rman backup with new database name in the same server and to query the new db to cross verify that rman backup is valid or not.
oracle version : 9.2.0.4.0
os : windows
appreciated the inputs.
Thanks
Prakash

Can you solve your problem?

First we have to create service and some directories for new W1,aslo restore spfile and controlfile as

Is it possible to restore TSM/ADSM RMAN backup pieces to disk manually?

Is it possible to restore TSM/ADSM RMAN backup pieces to disk manually, and re-catlog as disk backups?
Oracle 10.2.0.3
TSM client 5.5.1.1
SUN Solaris 10 64-bit
We are gearing up to switch from IBM's Tivoli (TSM/adsm) to EMC's Networker (Legatto), and the old TSM software drivers are going to be uninstalled.
In a worse case scenario, we would therefore not be able to easily restore using RMAN and TSM just after the switch, and before new backups are made on Networker.
To be comfortable with the backup methodology change, we need to explore restoring the RMAN backup pieces of a given tag using TSM commands (dsmc ?) to a filesystem, re-catalog the backup pieces now on disk, and then perform test restore/recoveries using RMAN with disk channels.
Does anyone know of the TSM command (dsmc ?) to perform the restores of RMAN backup pieces?
Thanks!

This is a set of guesses and thoughts.
1: When you say you are removing the Tivoli software drive, is this just the driver from the oracle home, or is it more substantive. In fact could you have a different oracle home to access tivoli, possible with a rman catalog copy.
2: I dont believe the backup tag is part of the filename, however is it possilbe to query the rman catalog to get the filenames mapped to a tag?
3: Providing you know the filenames you wish to restore then it is possible to browse the tivoli catalog. Its ages since I've done this but doesn't samc have at interactive mode
Apologies if these suggestions are rubbish and hopefully someone gives a better answer.

Which views have RMAN backup jobs information?

Hi there,
I use EM to schedule the db backup using RMAN.
I can view the jobs in the EM.
But I can not find out which views have RMAN backup jobs information in sqlplus.
like dba_scheduler_jobs.
Your advice will be appreciated.
Thanks,
SZ

Hi,
V$RMAN_STATUS - Shows the success/failure status of all recently completed RMAN jobs.
V$RMAN_OUTPUT
Displays messages reported by an RMAN job in progress
If you want to monitor then go the following :-
Monitoring RMAN Job Progress :- view V$SESSION_LONGOPS.
first Step :-
Before starting the job, create a script file (called, for this example, longops) containing the following SQL statement:
SELECT SID, SERIAL#, CONTEXT, SOFAR, TOTALWORK,
ROUND(SOFAR/TOTALWORK*100,2) "%_COMPLETE"
FROM V$SESSION_LONGOPS
WHERE OPNAME LIKE 'RMAN%'
AND OPNAME NOT LIKE '%aggregate%'
AND TOTALWORK != 0
AND SOFAR <> TOTALWORK
After connecting to the target database and, if desired, the recovery catalog database, start an RMAN job. For example, enter:
RESTORE DATABASE;
While the job is running, start SQL*Plus connected to the target database, and execute the longops script to check the progress of the RMAN job. If you repeat the query while the restore progresses, then you see output such as the following:
SQL> @longops
SID SERIAL# CONTEXT SOFAR TOTALWORK %_COMPLETE
8 19 1 10377 36617 28.34
SQL> @longops
SID SERIAL# CONTEXT SOFAR TOTALWORK % COMPLETE
8 19 1 21513 36617 58.75
