RMAN REPORT OPTIONS

i do not really understand the 'redundancy' option of rman report command.
like the one below:
RMAN> REPORT NEED BACKUP REDUNDANCY 2;
please, i don't understand what the word 'redundancy' means here.
I need help please.
thank you

Think of redundancy as number of full backups.
Redundancy 1 is 1 backup ago.
Redundancy 2 is 2 backups ago.

  • Rman - "report unrecoverable" concept

    Hi
    I am readin g a book on rman (rman recipes 11g from APress).
    I m not able to understand what is the purpose of "report unrecoverable" command. Book says:
    >
    Ref: Section 8.3 - page# 229:
    You want to identify which datafiles have been affected by unrecoverable operations, since RMAN needs to back up those files as soon as possible after you perform an unrecoverable operation.
    Use the report unrecoverable command to find out which datafiles in the database have been marked unrecoverable because they’re part of an unrecoverable operation. Here’s an example showing how to use the report unrecoverable command:
    RMAN> report unrecoverable;
    Report of files that need backup due to unrecoverable operations
    File Type of Backup Required Name
    1 full /u01/app/oracle/data/prod1/example01.dbf
    RMAN>Could someone please give example of unrecoverable operation(s)? And how could rman/oracle know before hand if such an unrecoverable operation is going to be performed on certain datafile(s)?
    Thanks

    Thanks A datafile or tablespace are set to unrecoverable if any operation that had been performed (since the last backup taken on these datafiles) on datafile or tablespace that are unrecoverable.
    A little explanation:
    When ever a operation occurs on database i.e. any dml occurs on tables, these operation generates REDO information in redolog files. So when someone explicitly disable the logging information to redologfile(by hint no_logging), then datafile is marked as unrecoverable.
    Oracle says it unrecoverable because oracle cannot perform recovery by reading from redologfile or archivefiles if datafile crashes and need a recovery. Thats why rman warns you about such operation which could have taken place and point you to datafile which had these operation performed. The operations which are unrecoverable are:
    1) direct load/SQL load
    2) direct-path inserts result from insert or merge statement
    3) ALTER TABLE commands
    4) CREATE and ALTER INDEX commands
    5) INSERT /*+APPEND*/
    6) partition manipulation
    7) database object that has explicitly set with nologging option
    8) Oracle eBusiness Suite concurrent job execution identified in Oracle metalink note: 216211.1
    8) Oracle eBusiness Suite patches activities that involve database object manipulation
    9) SQL*loader with nologging
    So once you take the full backup of datafiles (which are affected by these operation) will clearout the Unrecoverable warning. Because now oracle has the backup of these files.
    What preventions you can take for not making datafile to Unrecoverable?
    Use force_logging

  • RMAN reports

    1 row selected.As you can see this was a incremental backup. But I would like to know what level and what type of incremental backup that was used. I have tried to search through all the v$rman views but cannot find anything that would give me that information.
    Is it not possible to get that kind of information from the database views?
    Thanks in advance.

    You have to cross-check the times with your own backup schedules (e.g. you know when L0 backups are scheduled and when L1 backups are scheduled) OR backup run logs (using the LOG option or capturing the screen output).
    Hemant K ChitaleHerman,
    I tested tychos's solution (querying v$backup_set_details), and it looks Ok to me?

  • The report options under "configure" and CSV or xls.

    The report options under “configure” does not give .csv or xls as options. Instead of using vi to pass data to database, is there a simple way to transfer all the results (just like the way in the report that automatically generated) to .csv or xls...
      Thanks.

    Hi,
    in order to modify the report generation, you have to understand the way how TestStand works in regard of the report generation.
    There is a tutorial which explains this which you can find here. But please note that the tutorial is currently undergoing an improvement process. 
    The reason that the report options don't give you the option for xls or csv as report is: 
    Neither xls nor csv are predefined. So for example measurement values in xls can be placed in a special worksheet or included in a main sheet in a certain column.
    hope this helps,

  • Edit Report option freezes and Formatting Vanishes in EPM 10.0

    Hi,
    While creating a report in EPM 10.0 which i have selected as 'Use as Input form', i created Active X buttons and did dynamic formatting as well. All seems to be fine but as i Close and Reopen, or i Refresh the template, formatting vanishes and Edit Report option also gets disabled.
    I am working on EPM 10.0 SP07 Patch 02. Please guide me on this.
    Thank you.
    Rgds,
    Poonam

    Hi Poonam,
    This is probably happening because the report/input schedules is not getting connected. Please check the connections once.
    Also if you had named the report in "Edit Report" earlier, say for example "Sales Report", once the report is open you should be able to see this name on the EPM context pane, right side under Current Report: Connected to "Your Model" and below that in the drop down the default selection should be "Sales Report". This means that the report is connected and the Edit Report option is active.
    Hope this helps.

  • "Edit Report" option getting disabled on saving the report in BPC 10.0

    I have created input schedules using "Edit Report" functionality in BPC 10.0 NW, added a few buttons and corresponding VB code and tested the input schedule by sending data and running data manager package. Everything is working fine. After that I saved the input schedule and closed the Excel. On reopening the excel Add-in and the input schdule, the "Edit report" option becomes disabled and refresh and other functionalities available for the report get disabled. I have faced this issue a couple of times. Has anybody else faced this issue? Can someone let me know the resolution to this problem?

  • RMAN report need backup

    We have an incremental level-1 backup Mon-Sat and cold full backup on Sundays with retention policy of 7 days. While troubleshooting some backup issues (space issue, expired backups) I ran the following commands and trying to understand the output.
    RMAN> report need backup database;
    RMAN retention policy will be applied to the command
    RMAN retention policy is set to recovery window of 7 days
    Report of files whose recovery needs more than 7 days of archived logs
    File Days Name
    100 146 /orahprdidx/hprd/psindex05.dbf
    RMAN> report unrecoverable;
    Report of files that need backup due to unrecoverable operations
    File Type of Backup Required Name
    RMAN> report need backup days = 7 database;
    Report of files whose recovery needs more than 7 days of archived logs
    File Days Name
    100 146 /orahprdidx/hprd/psindex05.dbf
    RMAN> report obsolete recovery window of 7 days;
    no obsolete backups found
    RMAN>
    I looks like I need 146 days worth of archive log files to recover the psindex05.dbf. If so, what I could do to bring that into the 7 days policy?
    The database is fine, I am not trying to recover the database.
    This was setup by someone and now I am taking over with minimum RMAN experience.
    I appreciate any help in this subject.

    The datafile was offline. I guess it was created my mistake and hanging in there. Once I do the cleanup it should go away.

    Hi,
    I need some information from your side.
    Which reports are you using?( Crystal Report, Webi or Deski) with exact version of it.
    If the reports are running properly from the designer and you are having issue with application or in coding then you can post this question to BO Java SDK Application (Java Development) forum for better assistance.

  • Generate logs from user report options

    Hi all !
    I would like to know if there is a possibility to generate logs from report user selection:
    E.g: users can fill execution options to delimit the scope of the report execution and the output, company code, date ranges, account numbers, cost.
    - Is there a way to generate logs containing these report options that  were typed / filled by the user for every transaction executed?
    - If Yes could you please assist?
    Thanks in advance for the cooperation!
    Regards,

    There is a way of doing this using the object history, but the user can control this themselves and turn it off if they want to.
    Read the SAP notes on term "RSSGOSHIRE".
    Another way is to use parameter transactions or variant transactions, which the user cannot change or only change selected parameters for which you don't care about.
    Cheers,

  • Changes to „Report Options" don't affect output in the way I expect

    Changes in the „Report Options“ Window don’t affect report-files in the way I expect. For Example: when I set “Report Format” to “Web Page” the output is a html-file but changes in the “Report Colors”-dialog don’t affect the output. When “Report Format” is set to “ASCII Text File” I get the same file shown in a texteditor – with html-tags and so on (not what I expected). The “Insert Graph”-option doesn’t work, too.
    Has anyone an idea what‘s going wrong with my TestStand-installation?
    Thanks!

    Hi Daniel,
    This is most interesting. Something is not working right here. The next thing I would suggest is that you try debugging the model and report generation sequences to see exactly what is going on. Here are some suggestions:
    1) Launch the Sequence Editor.
    2) Double click on the "Model" text in the status bar, this will open your station model.
    3) Place a breakpoint on the "TestReport Callback" step inside of the "Single Pass" sequence.
    4) Go to Configure>>Station Options and on the Execution tab select: Trace Into Entry Points option. Close this dialog by clicking OK.
    5) Go to Configure>>Report Options and select the Sequence option and modify the other options to what you desire. Be sure to select the HTML report generation however. Close this dialog by clicking OK, not Cancel.
    6) Load the sequence file, \Examples\Demo\C\computer.seq.
    7) Select Single Pass from the Execute menu.
    8) When the execution stops at the breakpoint, select the Context tab and navigate to Locals.ReportOptions. Quickly browse through the properties to make sure they are set to what you changed in the dialog.
    9) Swicth back to the Steps tab and click step into.
    10) Step over until you get to the "Get Report Body" sequence call, and then click step into.
    11) Click on the Context tab and navigate to "RunState.SequenceFile.Path". Check this path. It should be pointing to "\Components\NI\Models\TestStandModels\ReportGen_html.seq".
    11) Also check the values inside of Parameters.ReportOptions. These should resemble what you have selected on the Report Options dialog.
    12) Continue single stepping, and stepping into subsequence calls, until an error is generated. Once the error occurs, select Break on the error dialog, and then examine the step that failed. Check to make sure that all the preconditions are correct and that any properties stated do actually exist.
    13) If the step is configured to call a DLL make sure that the DLL it is calling is from the NI directory under \Components. You can do this by bringing up the specify module dialog for the DLL and checking the path.
    By the way, the files I sent you are for TestStand 2.0.1f1. Is this your correct version? Please let me know if any of the above steps fail, and exactly what you are seeing. Thanks!

  • Using Reports option under Rel 2

    How does one use the reports option listed as a new element
    in the object navigator of Forms Builder?
    When we base a report on a block in the form, in the report
    definition it is getting stored as the query similar to the
    block. What advantage can it give us a report created
    independently through the reports builder?
    null

    I should also note that have borrowed friend's iRig Mic Cast which slots into earphone jack on the iPad 2.  In this case the microphone function works.  I can Skype/Facetime and record myself taking notes etc.  The drawback is that this means iPad speakers don't work.  So this could be a workaround but it would mean that I couldn't use the iPad to have my wife and I speak to someone together since there only audio comes through earphones hooked into the iRig.
    So, there could still be a hardware problem but the fact that one kind of external microphone works suggests something else may be at play ?

  • Programmat​ically setting report options.

    Is there a way, either through the TestStand engine interfaces or through writing property variables, to set the TestStand Report options? Specifically I'd like to affect the 'Disable Report Generation' option, and the 'Report Format' option.
    Thanks,
    Aaron Stibich

    Aaron,
    From your sequence file, you can add a callback sequence called ReportOptions. To add it, go to Edit->"Sequence File Callbacks..." and select ReportOptions (with type Callback Type "Model Callback") and click Add. Now you will have a ReportOptions sequence in your sequence file that the process model calls after reading the default report options. If you want to modify, say, the "Report Format" option, then add a statement step to this sequence with a version of the following statement:
    Parameters.ReportOptions.Format = "txt"
    From within this special sequence you can modify the report options as you like. If you want to change them for all of your sequence files, then you can modify the appropriate process model sequences.
