Rman dataguard script for oracle10g

Dear Friends ,
I am going to configure oracle10g dataguard on oracle wnterprise linux 5.0 . I am trying to do this configuration
using RMAN .
After succesfully configuration of the PRIMARY End as well as I am going to configure standby end .
n the standby end I have to run the below rman script and got the syntax error :

RMAN Backup script for RAC Database..please suggest

Hi All,
I am currently working on backup policy for RAC Database for my client.The client requirement is to backup while database is shutdown(mount state).I have made below script and could any one please suggest what further things should I need to add with below rman script.
echo "Shutdown Database";date
srvctl stop database -d PROD
srvctl status database -d PROD
echo "Database shutdown on";date
echo "Mount Database ";date
srvctl start instance -d PROD -i "PROD1" -o mount
srvctl status database -d PROD
echo "Start Full Database Backup on";date

copy current controlfile to '/BACKUP/PRODBKP/PROD.ctl';
delete noprompt obsolete;
release channel c1;
release channel c2;
exit
EOF
echo "RMAN Backup Finished on";date
echo "Shutdown Database";date
srvctl stop database -d PROD
echo "Start Database";date
srvctl start database -d PROD
srvctl status database -d PROD
Please share your experiences.
Regards

Hi,
Some tweaks for your script.
echo "Shutdown Database";date
srvctl stop database -d PROD
srvctl status database -d PROD
echo "Database shutdown on";date
echo "Mount Database ";date
srvctl start instance -d PROD -i "PROD1" -o mount1. If you database does not shutdown properly , does your script stops the execution of next step?
2. configure controlfile autobackup on;
configure controlfile autobackup format for device type disk to '/BACKUP/PRODBKP/%F';(Why you need to configure this every time) ?
It's persistent at db level one time setting (until some other script changes the settings by other dba - else remove that - set the configuration at db level once for all)

RMAN script for hot backup (looking for code critic) code attached.

Hello Guru's,
I have been having soem trouble running a successful hot full rman backup nightly.
We max our CPU load whenever our RMAN takes too long and conflicts with a Legato tape backup. I have a development server that I attempted to get a consistent backup time duration that is rock solid as to not conflict with the Legato backup time.
I just found out about duration with RMAN scripts here is my code:
#!/bin/bash
#rman backup script for daily hot whole database backup
at -f /hd1/rman_scripts/rman_backup 0600 tomorrow
rman target/
run {
allocate channel d1 device type disk format '/path/%U';
backup duration 1:00 partial minimize load database filesperset 1;
backup as BACKUPSET tag '%TAG' database;
backup as BACKUPSET tag '%TAG' archivelog all delete all input;
delete noprompt obsolete;
release channel d1;
exit
It completes the backup, but does not use the 1 hour allocated- it only uses 15 minutes on average and creates many files instead of normally three backup files.
Here is the results from querying the v$rman_status table for operation,status,start_time:
RMAN,FAILED, 17-OCT-06 0600
BACKUP,FAILED,17-OCT-06 0600
RMAN,FAILED,17-OCT-06 0606
BACKUP,COMPLETED,17-OCT-06 0606
BACKUP,COMPLETED,17-OCT-06 0606
BACKUP,FAILED,17-OCT-06 0615
RMAN,COMPLETED,17-OCT-06 1513
REPORT,COMPLETED,17-OCT-06 1513
DELETE,COMPLETED,17-OCT-06 1513
However, the timestamps of the backupset files it creates is:
06:15 and not 1513?????????????
RMAN appears to have only taken 15 minutes to create the files, why do I have a completed timestamp from v$rman_status of 1513???
Please advise and comment, I am just learning RMAN.

Try to remove the DURATION option in your script.
Here more details about that part.

RMAN Scripts for 9i RAC

We have just recently started to use Oracle 9i RAC on Red Hat linux 2.1. And we are going to use RMAN for backing up the archived logs.
Currently we have 2 node cluster and the archived logs of respective nodes are on their respective local hard disk. e.g for node1 logs are archived on /arch1 and for node2 on /arch2 individually.
Can I have some sample RMAN scripts for backing and restoring the logs of this individual nodes.?
An early guidance is highly appreciated.
Thanks

you can use the same scripts as you where running before you upgraded to RAC. The main difference is that to distribute the load you can allocate channels from other nodes. A simple backup could be done as follows:
#rman
#connect target /
#connect catalog rman/cat@cat
#run{
#allocate channel ch1 type sbt_tape;
#allocate channel ch2 type sbt_tape;
#configure channel 1 device type 'SBT_TAPE' connect = 'node 1'
#configure channel 2 device type 'SBT_TAPE connect = 'node 2'
#backup database;
that will work (he says) but thats the main difference, remember oracle only recommend you allocate the same number of channels as you have devices (EG if you have 2 tape drives you can allocate 2 channels to maximize effiantcy)...
hope this helps a bit,
Marky Mark...

write a ms dos script for rman backupImpossible. rman does not support MS-DOS. It is not a 16bit real mode application that can be run inside the MS-DOS operating system.
So get your terminology straight - the Windows console is a character based 32bit virtual machine. It is not MS-DOS. It never was MS-DOS. Do not confuse the two simply because of superficial similarities. A stick-it note can be yellow - but because it is yellow does not mean it is a banana.

Dear Pierre F.;
Actually, I just added in my backup plan to have daily backup through RMAN, instead of COLD backup.
I have planned to take cold backup once a week. here is the side of data:
*** datafile 410
*** size of database : 86 GM
*** relog files size : 250MB
*** daily archive logs are : 250MB * 4(number of files) = 1GM aprox.
yes, time constraint is there; just because of the size of database. and we r going for 24/7
Is this script going to run only one per week ?
Ans: no I this was level 0 backup; i will take level 1 incremental backup with same script daily too.
Do you have any other RMAN script ?
ANS: no, I will modify same script for incremental.
after local copy of backup all backup files (RMAN) will be copy over network to backup server or we can install LTO tape device to copy directly from database server.
kindly advise me I am new in RMAN.

Need Help in creating Unix Shell Script for database

Would be appreciable if some one can help in creating unix shell script for the Oracle DB 10,11g.
Here is the condition which i want to implement.
1. Create shell script to create the database with 10GB TB SPACE and 3 groups of redo log file(Each 300MB).
2. Increase size of redolog file.
3. Load sample schema.
4. dump the schema.
5. Create empty db (Script should check if db already exists and drop it in this case).
6. Create backup using rman.
7. restore backup which you have backed up.

This isn't much of a "code-sharing" site but a "knowledge-sharing" site. Code posted me may be from a questioner who has a problem / issue / error with his code. But we don't generally see people writing entire scripts as responses to such questions as yours. There may be other sites where you can get coding done "for free".
What you could do is to write some of the code and test it and, if and when it fails / errors, post it for members to make suggestions.
But the expectation here is for you to write your own code.

Shell script for archive log transfer

hi
I dont want to reinvent the wheel.
I am looking for shell script for log shipping to provide standby db.
What I want to do is, get the last applied archived log number from alert.log
Copy the files from archive destination according to this value.
Cheers

If you don't want to re-invent the wheel you use Dataguard, no scripts.
And your script should use the dictionary, instead of some bs method to read the alert.
v$archived_log has all information!
Also as far as I know, the documentation describes manual standby.
So apparently you not only don't want to reinvent the wheel, but you want the script on a silver plate on your doorstep!
Typical attitude of most DBAs here. Use OTN for a permanent vacation.

Shell script for export backup in oracle 11g

Hi,

How to write shell script for export full backup in oracle 11g and also need to remove 2 days of old backup.
Regards,
Raju

How to write shell script for export full backup in oracle 11g
Do you mean that export is your backup strategy ? is your database running in noarchivelog mode ? if so, then why ? if not so, then why not RMAN ?
need to remove 2 days of old backup.
If that mean remove files older than 2 days, you can use something like this :
$ find <absolute directory path> -mtime +2 -exec rm {} \;

Best pratices for RMAN backup management for many databases

Dear all,
We have many 10g databases (>40) hosted on multiple Windows servers which are backup up using RMAN.
A year ago, all backup's were implemented through Windows Scheduled Tasks using some batch files.
We have been busy (re)implementing / migrating such backup in Grid Control.
I personally prefer to maintain the backup management in Grid Control, but a colleague wants now to go back to the batch files.
What i am looking for here, are advices in the management of RMAN backup for multiple databases: do you guys use Grid Control or any third-party backup management tool or even got your home-made solution?
One of the discussion topic is the work involved in case that the central backup location changes.
Well... any real-life advices on best practices / strategies for RMAN backup management for many databases will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Thierry

Hi Thierry,
Thierry H. wrote:
Thanks for your reaction.
So, i understand that Grid Control is for you not used to manage the backups, and as a consequence, you also have no 'direct' overview of the job schedules.
One of my concern is also to avoid that too many backups are started at the same time to avoid network / storage overload. Such overview is availble in Grid Control's Jobs screen.
And, based on your strategy, do you recreate a 'one-time' Oracle scheduled job for every backup, or do your scripts create an Oracle job with multiple schedule?
You're very welcome!
Well, Grid Control is not an option for us, since each customer is in a separate infrastructure, and with their own licensing. I have no real way (in difference to your situation) to have a centralized point of control, but that on the other hand mean that I don't have to consider network/storage congestion, like you have to.
The script is run from a "permanent" job within the dba-scheduler, created like this:
dbms_scheduler.create_job(
        job_name        => 'BACKUP',
        job_type        => 'EXECUTABLE',
        job_action      => '/home/oracle/scripts/rman_backup.sh',
        start_date      => trunc(sysdate)+1+7/48,
        repeat_interval => 'trunc(sysdate)+1+7/48',
        enabled         => true,
        auto_drop       => false,
        comments        => 'execute backup script at 03:30');and then the "master-script", determines which level to use, based on weekday from the OS. The actual job schedule (start date, run interval etc) is set together with the customer IT/IS dept, to avoid congestion on the backup resources.
I have no overview of the backup status, run times etc, but have made monitoring scripts that will alert me if/when a backup either fails, or runs for too long. This, in addition with scheduled disaster/recovery tests makes me sleep rather well at night.. ;-)
I realize that there (might be) better ways of doing backup scheduling in your environment, since my requirements are so completely different than yours, but I guess that we all face the same challenges in unifying the environments as much as possible, to minimize the amount of actual work we have to do. :-)
Good luck!
