Rman cloning rac+asm_cold backup

Hi
i have a RAC db v11.2 ,which uses asm and backed up using rman (cold backup, back'd up to asm diskgroup).
is there any document on how to clone this db on the same cluster or remote cluster?
if I clone on the same cluster then I guess I need to give it a new name too...
can cloning change db characterset as well?

  • Rman cloning on RAC

    Hello all,
    My environment
    OS: LINUX
    ORACLE: 10.2.0.2
    my question are
    1) configured crs_home,oracle_home with asm now i have to clone from proda to prodb.
    all configurations are working fine.
    backup pieces are copied to prodb.
    if i have backupsets in prodb location. is it possible to clone?
    or backups should be in proda? then we have to duplicate?
    can anyone tell me please.

    If you not using RECOVERY CATALOG , you have to copy the backup sets or copies to the clone database server.
    RMAN checks for the backup to restore. if it is not available in the machine, it gives an error.

  • Am i missing the most basic setting for RMAN in RAC?

    The archivelog is actually at

    Apparenly, the log_archive_dest_1 parameter is different in the two instances.
    Have you configured multiple Channels appropriately to connect to the two instances ?

  • RMAN on RAC ENV

    How to configure RMAN on RAC 2 node ?
    Is there any document to configure RMAN on RAC env and to integrate it with Networker.
    Please recommend me document.

    Did you read the fine networker guide on how to install and configure the module? The guide covers all required steps.
    The basic steps are:
    1. Create a client
    2. Add the rman script as saveset
    3. Add the rman wrapper script as backup command
    4. Install the module on OS level
    5. Configure RMAN
    6. Create Scripts
    7. Test it
    If you are on Networker 7.5 or higher you also can create/configure RMAN scripts from within networker.

  • Error while taking RMAN back up - RMAN-03009: failure of backup command ..

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to take RMAN back up but at the end I get this error message.. I found a solution at http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/9i/RecoveryManager9i.php
    But this is of oracle 9i. Can I use it on 10g too ?
    So is this Step correct ?
    1) First create a user to hold the recovery catalog:
    a) CONNECT sys/password@w2k1 AS SYSDBA
    b) GRANT connect, resource, recovery_catalog_owner TO rman;
    2) Then create the recovery catalog:
    a) C:>rman catalog=rman/rman@w2k1
    b) RMAN> create catalog tablespace "RMAN";
    c) RMAN> exit
    3) Register Database
    a) C:>rman catalog=rman/rman@w2k1 target=sys/password@w2k2
    b) RMAN> register database;
    c) Existing user-created backups can be added to the catalog using: (*So far no Back up taken so I guess this step can be ignored*)
    i) RMAN> catalog datafilecopy 'C:\Oracle\Oradata\TSH1.dbf';
    ii) RMAN> catalog archivelog 'log1', 'log2', 'log3', ... 'logN';
    4) Full Backup Configuration
    RMAN> configure retention policy to recovery window of 7 days;
    RMAN> configure default device type to disk;
    RMAN> configure controlfile autobackup on;
    RMAN> configure channel device type disk format 'C:\Oracle\Admin\W2K2\Backup%d_DB_%u_%s_%p';
    5) Full back up
    RMAN> run {
    backup database plus archivelog;
    delete noprompt obsolete;
    6) RMAN> resync catalog;

    Provided you consult the 10g RMAN documentation and the online error documentation: yes.
    But apparently you didn't check documentation, not even the error messages!!!!! Why?
    You are backing up to the Flash Recovery Area, and the error messages mean too much space is occupied.
    How to configure the Flash Recovery Areea is fully documented in the Backup and Recovery manual for 10g at http://tahiti.oracle.com
    READ IT.

  • If RMAN incremental level-1 backup fails...

    Hi there,
    I have a question. If the RMAN incremental level-1 backup fails, will the next level-1 backup attempt take backup of all changes since last successful level-0 OR level-1 backup?
    Best regards

    Hi,
    I have a question. If the RMAN incremental level-1 backup fails, will the next level-1 backup attempt take backup of all changes since last successful level-0 OR level-1 backup?
    Check the V$BACKUP_SET dictionary to confirm whether the last backup has been touched by data dictionary. If the failed incremental backup is picked up then the previous incremental backup will be required in case of the next DIFFERENTIAL INCREMENTAL LEVEL 1 backup.
    But to be on safe side , it is recommended you take a LEVEL 01 CUMILATIVE INCREMENTAL backup from Level 0 till date. So that the recovery process can go through even  if the previous backup is not valid.
    Thanks &
    Best Regards

  • Cloning Using Cold Backups !!!!

    Dear All,
    Greetings,
    I Want To Ask What Are All The Files And Directories That I Need To Copy From The Original Server To The Destination To Perform A Cloning From Cold Backups ?
    The Second Thing, Can You Plz, Tell Me The Complete Steps To Perform This Cloning .
    Plz, It's Urgent
    Thank You .
    Guivara

    Hi Guivara,
    Sabar given urls that would be useful for your requirement.
    Generally for cold backups
    We need to take the below's from your original server.
    Control Files,
    Redo log files,
    all Data files
    After restore those files into your destination, you should edit/modify the original server files to destination server path.
    For example,
    System.dbf is located on /u01/oracle/product/9iR2/oradata/' but in destination server you want to put other location, then you should change the path using
    Alter database rename .....

  • RAC Cloning using hot backup

    Hi,
    can somebody help me with the steps for cloning 2 node to 2 node RAC, using hot backup.
    Thx.

    Actually, the procedure to clone a RAC database do not differ substantially from those of a single-instance database.
    You can perform your cloning as if it is a single instance database and once you have your single instance up, you just have to add another instance - and the high level steps would be:
    1) Preparing the init.ora file for the second instance.
    2) Adding the redo logs for thread 2;
    3) Updating the OCR
    HTH
