RMAN can backup/restore diferent versions of Oracle DataBases regardless OS

Hi,
I am evaluating Recovery Manager to backup and restore Oracle databases.
I have to backup/restore diferents versions of Oracle database, these databases are running in diferents operating systems (AIX, LINUX, Windows)
For example:
Oracle DataBase 9 in AIX 5.3 system
Oracle DataBase 10 in Lunix system
Oracle DataBase 9 in Windows system
I want to have a single RMAN server in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
A single RMAN server can backup/restore diferent versions of Oracle DataBases regardless the operating system?
If the answer is yes, do I need to have an specif operting system in my RMAN server? (AIX, Linux, Windows, etc.)
Thanks for your help;

Hi,
Your question:
I want to have a single RMAN server in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
Sounds more like a machine.
If you would have asked:
I want to have a single RMAN recovery catalog in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
I would have confirmed as like the other two.
Be aware the catalog version needs to be equal or higher as the highest database version.
Regards,
Tycho

  • Can't access tables in other Oracle database schemas

    Hi. We got our Oracle database admin to install APEX in our Oracle database. She created a login and schema for my Oracle database user so that I could work with APEX a little. Here's the information on the version of APEX we have installed:
    Database Version Information
    Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production
    TNS for IBM/AIX RISC System/6000: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    I've found that my user is only able to access Oracle tables within my own Oracle database schema. Most of our main tables are in 3 other schemas and I'd need access to all tables in all these schemas. Right now whenever I encounter a drop list of values for Schema, only by own schema is available in the list of values.
    Is there something our Admin can do to make these tables in other schemas available to my user account?

    Sharpe,
    This documentation should point you in the right direction. It will show you how to add multiple schemas to a workspace.

  • Free version of oracle database.

    Hi everbody,
    Can anybody tell if there is a free version of Oracle database which can be used for training purpose.
    This software is required for the hands on purpose for the associates.
    Moreover, it would be kind enough of you to suggest that which is the most suitable version for installing on CentOS 6.3 64 bit ?
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    What is the purpose/content of the training ? For self-learning purposes, all of the database versions available at Oracle Downloads | Software | Oracle are "free". Currently, no Oracle database software is certified/supported on CentOS, although folks have managed to install it on this OS, with the assumption that they will have to troubleshoot any issues on their own. Again, for self-learning purposes, Oracle Linux is freely available at https://linux.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=101:3

  • Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition?

    Hi,
    Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition instead of using the default "users" tablespace provided?
    Please advise.
    Thank you.

    Correct. The sum of all user tablespaces is not allowed to exceed 4 GIG.
    You could try shrinking your tablespaces. Theres a script called maxshrink on http://asktom.oracle.com which is useful for this.
    You could compress your tables.
    If you are storing lobs, you could consider storing them as bfiles.
    Or upgrade to Oracle Standard Edition 1. Its not that expensive.

  • Latest version of Oracle database

    Pl tell me the latest version of Oracle.

    Then i let you explain to tens of thousands of Siebel
    customers why Oracle uses Actuate :-)[snip]
    You're more like competing with IBM , SAP and
    Microsoft on these markets[ps:  I'm not 'Oracle'.  Don't even work for them.  So it ain't "You're" ... <g>]
    You totally miss the point. My apology for being obtuse. Let's try this again, a bit more straight forward.
    This is a database forum. Specifically an Oracle core tech database forum.
    It is not a BI forum. It is not an Actuate forum.
    It is a database forum.
    Maybe it's just me, but when a person asks "what is the Latest version of Oracle database", I would expect an answer related to the database version. Not an Oracle competitor or third party product.
    Seems to me people interested in Actuate would normally go to places where Actuate users participate. And people who want to troll or discuss the virtues of Actuate would go to an appropriate BI forum elsewhere in the Oracle Forums.
    Again, apologies for not being clear in the original response.

  • Which version of Oracle database is best for Windows 7 Home Premium?

    Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium? Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?

    EssbaseApprentice wrote:
    Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium?That's easy to answer, none . No oracle database version was released for Home(Premimum) series. There are several blog posts/articles which do mention that they have installed oracle releases over Home(Premium) platforms but whether it would work or not, it would be just a lottery and help regarding troubleshooting would not be there.
    Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?You mean 10g Express Edition and 10g Enterprise, Standard Editions? If yes, then there is indeed difference. The Express edition is more like a developer's playground with a good looking GUI even there to administer it. EE or SE are the production releases , meant for being used in a very busy, highly concurrent environments. There would be additional features like RAC and Dataguard that would come with EE and wont be there in the XE. So if you are learning to become a production DBA, you should right away use EE or SE IMO .

  • How I can log Sequence File version number to database?

    Hi,
    As in the subject.
    How I can log Sequence File version number to database?
    There is nothing like that under Logging object.

    Do you need it in a separate field in the databse?
    One option is to just add it as an additional result in a step in your sequence file. 
    RunState.SequenceFile.AsPropertyObjectFile.Version
    Hope this helps,

  • Can I delete early versions of "Lightroom Database 2 Preview.lrData

    Can I delete previous versions of "Lightroom Database-2 Previews.lrData

    Thank you, Jim!
    Just to clarify--I was puzzled upon first reading your "No".    However, upon reading further, I now will happily delete the old programs. (2.667 GB!).  It was interesting to see the size increase for each one--from 207MB (3.4) to 780MB for 4.4....  The Control Panel (Win7HP) only lists 4.4, so I'll have to delete the old programs up to & including 4.3.
    Your quick response was very much appreciated!
    =================================================================
    I thought I could do the same with my other Adobe program files, but only the CS6 programs are listed.  Does this mean the previous files are automatically deleted when upgrading?  

  • When I switch libraries I lose the majority of the material in my main library and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

    When I switch libraries I "lose" the majority of the material in my main library (or at least I can't see it) and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

    I seem to have found a way around it. Rather than switching libraries by going into files/switch libraries I used Aperture Preferences to change them. I've done it a couple of times and it appears to work OK.
    That is an interesting finding. It suggests, that your "Preferences" file "com.apple.Aperture.plist" may have been corrupted and you fixed it this way. Can you now switch between libraries the usual way? If not, I'd try to remove the "preferences" file from the user library to the Desktop and relaunch Aperture.
    The Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
    describe how to remove the user preferences.

  • Can I restore previous version of an app from iTunes backup?

    I updated an app via wifi and don't like the new version (too many ads).
    I deleted it from my iPod Touch.
    Can I restore the old version of the app from iTunes?
    In iTunes I try to drag the app from the apps folder to my iPod but it springs back.

    Try:
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
    However, sometimes a previous version is not available.

    Hello Hans,
    However, if you have environment-specific things,
    they will fail. I am not aware of any issues when moving Apex installations from one server to another. I have walked a user through this process of restoring an apex installation from a full database backup on a different server. There seem to be no server related references stored in the Apex repository.
    APEX seems to have some environment-dependant areas (OS file system mapping
    comes to mind) and that may cause grief. In a normal Apex installation (standalone) it has only references to the virtual directory /i/. This needs to be defined on the target server as well.
    This is even less a problem with regard to XE since the mapping it automatically available as the files are all stored in the XML DB.
