RMAN - Recover dropped tablespace

I'm kinda new to RMAN. I took full backup using RMAN in archivelog mode database. No RMAN catalog created. I dropped a tablespace using 'including contents and datafiles'. When i try to restore and recover th edropped tablespacespace, i get the following error message.

RMAN-20202: tablespace not found in the recovery catalog
I took full backup using RMAN in archivelog mode database. No RMAN catalog created.As you said "Recovery Catalog is not configured" but its prompting for Recovery Catalog!
Try This % ORACLE_SID=trgt; export ORACLE_SID #trgt means your target database
% rman TARGET / NOCATALOG
hope it should work

  • TSPITR - Recover a Dropped Tablespace aborting due dependency over XDB.

    I found an issue using TSPITR to Recover a Dropped Tablespace when XML DB (XDB) is installed on a different tablespace from "SYSAUX".
    During execution of TSPITR RMAN use Data Pump to export/import Tablespace Metadata as Data Pump has dependency over XDB views and related objects and XDB is installed on a set of tablespace not included on dummy database then EXPDP fails.
    Errors raised ORA-39123, ORA-00376, ORA-01110.
    I didn't found any limitation about XDB location on documentation or MoS.
    This looks like a Oracle Bug.
    See this:

    RMAN>If I drop tablespace SOE and XDB on Target database and try to restore both (SOE,XDB) export will succeeds but during IMPORT Metadata RMAN will faill due XDB dependency.
    In my view, they (mean Oracle) need find way to include XDB Tablespace at DUMMY database only to export (EXPDP) Metadata purposes.
    If someone get a workaround for this error will be grateful.
    P.S: This is not a Production environment and will soon open a SR on Oracle Support.

    Hi Michael,
    I did not find solution to use TSPITR to recover dropped tablespace if XML DB is installed in a non-default tablespace (i.e outside of SYSAUX).
    As far I could understand, the only way to perform this RESTORE is using the old fashion. By creating clone database excluding all unnecessary tablespace, exporting and importing metadata from desired tablespace manually.
    Since Oracle has not solved the issue I created my own workaround.
    @All
    If someone is able to use TSPITR to restore dropped tablespace when XDB is installed in a non-default tablespace, please let me know!!!
    The procedure below is supported on All Oracle Version since 10.1 until 11.2.
    I DON'T RECOMMEND to create AUXILIARY (clone) database using the same server from TARGET because you can damage the TARGET database.
    On this example I'm using same server.
    See this example:
    ### ON TARGET DATABASE
    SQL> select count(1) SEG_COUNT from dba_segments where tablespace_name='SOE';
      SEG_COUNT
            32
    SQL> ! date
    Wed Dec 19 15:08:11 GMT-02:00 2012
    SQL> drop tablespace soe including contents and datafiles;
    Tablespace dropped.
    ### CHECK TABLESPACE TO BE EXCLUDED FROM RESTORE
    SQL> select tablespace_name
        from dba_tablespaces
         where tablespace_name not in ('SYSTEM','SYSAUX','UNDOTBS1','SOE','XDB','TEMP');
    TABLESPACE_NAME

    SuradechHi Suradech.This error(ORA-01157,ORA-01110) because in controlfile remain information about of '/data/db01/ORABK/perfstat.dbf'.Due to you restored controlfile from backup.You have to re-create controlfile or you can open database without this datafile.(Also there is YEAR2009' tablespaces datafile).You can try following.
    1.
    sqlplus "/as sysdba"

  • Restore the dropped tablespace using RMAN?

    Hello,
    I have done a oracle tablespace re-org for PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI. Now I want to restore only the OLD PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI tablespace using TAPE backup via RMAN. 
    The probelm is I have dropped the old tablespace during re-org which is a part of the re-org. Is it possible to restore the dropped tablespace using RMAN?
    My Oracle version is 9.2.05
    if anyone has done this before, please share your valuable ideas.
    I wrote the below script for the restore.
    run {
    allocate channel ch1 type sbt_tape;
    startup nomount
    restore controlfile; -
    >(I guess,if I restore old control file, I might get old structure which help the restore of TB)
    alter database mount ;
    restore tablespace PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI;
    recover tablespace PSAPPOOLD,PSAPPOOLI;;
    release channel ch1;
    Thanks,

    Hello Arjun,
    why would you want to do this?
    What is is you want to achieve by this action?
    BTW: it's not possible to do that.
    Check [Performing RMAN Tablespace Point-in-Time Recovery|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96566/rcmtspit.htm].
    You want a "Tablespace point in time recovery" (TSPITR) for a dropped tablespace and that is just not possible with RMAN.
    So, the easiest way for you to get this tablespace back would be to restore and recover the database to a different host.
    Ah, while we're at it: using RMAN outside the BRTOOLS is not supported by SAP - so you better be a wiz with it because there won't be much help in case anything does not work.
    regards,
    Lars

  • How to recover tools tablespace???

    Hi,
    actually i was playing my database,where i have done few things like..
    1.i manually delete backups of my database.
    2.create autobackup of control file and and restore autobackup controlfiles which replcae previous controlfile.
    3.after restoring my autobackup controlfile i tried to open the database,but then i recived a error in which the rman says that my system tablespace need recovery.i couden't able to perform this task because of no backup of my database.
    4.aftre i thoght i decided to recreate a controlfile because at that time it seems the only option to get my database back any sort of life.
    5.i made all the required changes which was needed to create a ctlfile.fortunatly i got sucess in creating a controlfile abd i thought i've done it,but when i tried to open my database it says that the file was inconsistent
    due to failed media recovery and this won't allow to me open the database until unless i recover my tools tablesapce.
    6.now the quesion i want to ask is weather i can able to recover my tools tablespace,or i again need to recreate a ctlfile withought having tools datafile in my ctlfile.i wish if there is any hope so i able to open my database withough loosing system tablespace.
    your help would highly appriciated.
    thanks
    Alok Kumar.

    Asif Kabir,
    The OP cannot recover the dropped tablespace into the current database as the tablespace no longer belongs to the database.
    He will have to do a Point In Time Recovery and then copy data back.
    Even the method documented here (as TSPITR) will not work
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmtspit.htm#i1014116
    He has to do a manual restore and recover the database (e.g to an alternate server / database name) to a point before the DROP. And then export data from that recovered instance and import it into the production database.

  • RESTORE: dropped tablespace 10g

    Hi all,
    unfortunately we dropped a tablespace after we take a RMAN full backup.
    Now we are trying to recover the hole database.
    We getting several errors that the RMAN can not file the datafile in the Catalog.
    It is also not possible to set the tablespace/datafile offline because he does not exist(it was dropped)......
    By searching the web we found some information to get a clean controlfile copy from backup.
    recover .....controlfile..... OK
    the v$datafie view consist now the datafiles.
    alter database ...datafile....offline......OK
    Recover again.. Same problem.
    RMAN can not find the datafile in the catalog.
    Does anyone have a detailed howto recover a tablespace after a drop from backup. ?
    Thanks !!

    thx problem solved..
    NOTE: It was necessary to use the controfile from the backup. Otherwise recover runs into missing file errors.

  • Incomplete Recovery After Drop Tablespace.

    Hi...some technical help required.
    I was trying a hands-on for incomplete recovery. That is drop a tablespace and then retrieve back until 1 second before drop statement.
    The Steps were like this...
    1) Shutdown Immediate;
    2) Copy all *.ctl, *.dbf, logfiles into a different folder <nis_back>
    3) Startup;
    4) Enter 3-4 Records and Commit. Table is in <USER> Tablespace.
    5) 3 times "alter system switch logfile;"
    5) drop tablespace users;
    6) shutdown;
    7) Check the Alter Log and find the time when tablespace dropped.
    Suppose time when dropped is -> 21-Aug 10:30:45 AM. (HH:MM:SS)
    7) copy back only *.dbf, *.ctl files from backup folder <nis_back>
    8) startup mount;
    9) alter database recover automatic until time '2002-08-21:10:30:40';
    10) <<Statement Process>> Message Comes.
    11) alter database open resetlogs;
    When I open the table into which I inserted records just before dropping the tablespace I dont see the records (Inseretd in Step - 4) but the tablespace is back.
    Now My Concern -> Why did the 3-4 record which I inserted in step 4 did not get restored from the archieve log ?
    Hope to hear from you all soon.
    Thanks in advance.

       Can you help me please to fix this issue and to understand why it's occured.

    Hi,
    If you check the alert log you will get message similar to
    Recovery deleting file #7:'<Oracle_Home>/db/dbs/UNNAMED00007' from controlfile.
    Now you have 2 option
    1. If you have backup of that tablespace TS1  then you can restore and recover it
    If you don't need that tablespace then you offline drop that datafile 7 . Open the database in resetlogs mode and then drop tablespace TS1
    Thank you

  • Restore tables from dropped tablespace

    I have a tablespace that has been dropped and re-created.
    I found out that there are some tables in the dropped tablespace that I'd like to get back.
    Is there a way to do this using RMAN ? I have an rman backup of the tablepsace from a few days ago.

    Too bad since you dropped the tablespace, you can't use RMAN Tablespace Point In Time Recovery. (TSPITR)
    You have to do whole database Point-In-Time Recovery using Until clause of RMAN restore
    until Clause
    If you have FLASHBACK DATABASE turn on, that's easier.

  • Can i recovered dropped users from Flash Back Database

    I am having confusion on step by step process for Recovering dropped user from Flash Back Database or from RMAN.
    And Which case we will use Flash Back Database or RMAN?

    1) Restore database (PITR- Point In Time Recovery) until the schema was dropped.
    RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL SCN XXXXX;
    2) If you only want a table:
    flashback table XXXX to before drop;
    3) Flashback database (if you have flashback on):
    FLASHBACK DATABASE TO SCN XXXXX;
    or
    FLASHBACK DATABASE TO TIME "TO_DATE('XX/XX/XX','MM/DD/YY')";
