Rman level 0 copy takes 14 hrs for backing up 110 GB !!!!

Hello all,
I 'am using rman to take my backup using grid control.
The database size is around 110 GB and a full ' level 0' backup is taking around 14 hrs.
Does it take this much time??
My production is a 2 node RAC on 10.2.0.2 on Solaris 10.
And the Grid is also another Solaris 10 server with 10.2.0.2
Below is my rman configuration
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 90 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/d01/%F';
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK BACKUP TYPE TO COMPRESSED BACKUPSET PARALLELISM 4;
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1;
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1;
CONFIGURE CHANNEL 1 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT   '/d01/%U' CONNECT '*';
CONFIGURE CHANNEL 2 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT   '/d02/%U' CONNECT '*';
CONFIGURE CHANNEL 3 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT   '/d01/%U' CONNECT '*';
CONFIGURE CHANNEL 4 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT   '/d02/%U' CONNECT '*';
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED;
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION FOR DATABASE OFF; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM 'AES128'; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON STANDBY;
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/BACKUP/RMAN/snapcf_emrep.f';Large_pool_size is around 65 MB.
TIA,

backup or copy?
The subject line contradicts the rest of your post.
And backup and copy are two entirely different things.
copy will copy the datafile, all of it.
Also, it might not be advantageous to have parallelism > the number of instances.
You now have multiple sessions hitting the same disks.
You also would need to examine progress using gv$backup_sync_io or gv$backup_async_io and gv$session_longops.

  • I cant sync my ipod touch, it takes hrs to back up

    I have been trying to unsuccessfully sync my daughters ipod touch for ages so I can put some more music on, however each time I try it takes hours to back up when I try to install the latest software update. I have tried not updating the software by clicking on do this later but it is still the same, the process has taken hours and in the end I turn it off as it obviously isn't working.
    Does anyone have any ideas what I can do?

    Sounds like you are using the automatic method of syncing. Use the manual method and check only the items yo what synced to your iPod. See the manual method included here:

  • I am using a WD external hard drive for backing up my laptop with Time Machine, but I have to do it manually. How do I know when it has finished the back up? How long should it take?

    I am using an external WD hard drive for backing up my laptop. I have to do it manually, so I can't set Time Machine to just do it for me. How do I know when it is done backing up? How long should this take?

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    tmutil compare -E
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    The command will take at least a few minutes to run. Eventually some lines of output will appear below what you entered.
    Each line that begins with a plus sign (“+”) represents a file that has been added to the source volume since the last snapshot was taken. These files have not been backed up yet.
    Each line that begins with an exclamation point (“!”) represents a file that has changed on the source volume. These files have been backed up, but not in their present state.
    Each line that begins with a minus sign (“-“) represents a file that has been removed from the source volume.
    At the end of the output, you’ll get some lines like the following:
    Added:
    Removed:
    Changed:
    These lines show the total amount of data added, removed, or changed on the source(s) since the last snapshot.

  • HT4436 I am using IOS 4.1 in Ipod touch. I would like to take my data back using icloud. I am not able to enable icloud in to my ipod touch. please help me for the same.

    I am using IOS 4.1 in Ipod touch. I would like to take my data back using icloud. I am not able to enable icloud in to my ipod touch. please help me for the same. Basically I am trying to take back to upgrade my ios to 5 or 6 version.

    You can't back up to iCloud until you update to iOS 5 or higher.  You will have to back up your iPod on your computer using iTunes.  Update iTunes on your computer to the latest version, then connect your iPod to your computer, open iTunes, if iTunes give you a pop-up asking if you want to update your iPod, decline.  Then click on the name of your iPod in iTunes, go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer any purchased media to your iTunes library.  Next, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click on Back Up Now to back up your iPod on your computer.
    When it's done backing up, click on Check for Update (or Update) on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings.  Allow your iPod to update, and leave it connected to your computer.  At the end, it will restart and give you the option to restore to the iTunes backup you made earlier.  Choose this option to restore your backup and sync your apps and other iTuens media to your phone.
    This process is outlined in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972, under "If you are attempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you normally sync".

  • My 3GS 3.1 can't upgrade to IOS5, I tried but after waiting for 6 hrs of back up, it went for nothing.. grrr...

    My iphone 3GS w/ iOS 3.1.3 cant upgrade to iOS 5, i tried upgrading but after waiting for backing-up for almost 6 hours it just stopped, i done this twice already, Help...

    Try to give you phone as much free space as you can. Copy all data you don't need to your computer.
    Delete the photos from the camera roll after you transferred them as well, same for music, videos, podcasts, etc.
    Back up manually before you do this by right clicking on your device and choosing "backup".
    then follow this article: iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5

    You must have a slower connection if it took 2.5 hours, did you pause it or exit out to the main screen? I've paused movies many times and it resumes..it could be due to the connection as well  so what is your actual speed? Check www.speedtest.net Wifi or ethernet? Have you changed the DNS settings?

  • HT4873 How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

    How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

    You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com.  If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it.  (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
    If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
    In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album.  Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored.  Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another.  Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album.

    Hi I have taken RMAN level 0 backup and scheduled level1 previously. Now we have moved the old datafiles and backupset and wanted to start from level 0 again.

  • RMAN level 0 and level 1 tablespace/database relationships

    If I take an incremental level 0 backup of an entire database and then take a level 0 of an individual tablespace, does an incremental level 1 backup of that tablespace reference the incremental level 0 of the tablespace or of the entire database? If I change the order of the level 0 backups, does it change the reference of the tablespace's level 1?
    I guess what I'm asking is does the the level 1 incremental reference the latest level 0 regardless of whether it's for the whole database or just the tablespace or does a level 1 always reference it's own level 0?
    Also, if I take a level 0 of the database Sunday night, and then a level 1 of the database every night after that as well as multiple level 1s of a tablespace throughout each day, will Tuesday night's database level 1 include all of Monday's tablespace level 1s?
    I just can't seem to find oracle documentation about these relationships.

    "Database" and "Tablespace" are logical groupings for our convenience.
    RMAN tracks backups at the datafile level.I think that is exactly what I was looking for. I just want to clarify my understanding.
    If I run a level 0 on the database Sunday night, a database differential level 1 each night, and a level 0 on a specific tablespace each morning at 6AM followed by hourly tabelspace differential incrementals only for that tablespace, then Monday night's level 1 will be an incremental of the entire database pointing to Sunday's level 0 except for that specific tablespace for which it will be incremental from that tablespace's last level 1. Does that sound right? If so, then it sounds like to restore the entire database to its state on Tuesday at noon from media, I have to put these backups back on disk before running the RMAN restore:
    - database level 0 from Sunday
    - Monday night's database level 1
    - Tuesday's tablespace level 0
    - Tuesday's tablespace level1s from 7AM - noon
    This means I can avoid putting Monday's tabelspace incrementals back right? From what I gather, the RMAN restore will put the blocks back into the datafiles at their correct SCNs, and then if there are any archive logs after that point in time, the RMAN recover will apply them. Does that all sound correct?
