  • RMAN restore fails due to space issue

    Hi,
    My database size is 225 GB . I m restoring the backupfiles using RMAN from production backup to the test instance.During restore process rman failed due to space issue.When the error occurred rman restored around 122 GB.
    Now i increased the free space in server.So now my doubt is i have to delete the restored files (122GB) and start the restore process again or RMAN will automatically skip the the restored file and resume the process from where it was failed ?

    Thanks

    When you start the restore from the failure, RMAN knows whcih are restored and it will check file headers. if the headers match, it will skip restoring the files.
    Hope this helps,

  • RMAN restore failing in another environment

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem. I have to restore a database backup from production to Integration
    environment. In Production, it is RAC db and RMAN and Veritas Net backup taking the backups.
    In Integration Environment also we have the same setup.
    So the steps I have done so far is:
    1.Have the export of RMAN catalog schema from production and imported in RMAN server in Integration
    Environment.#
    2. UNIX admins put and mounts the TAPE in tape library.
    3. Set the environment for new db in oratab file.
    4. connected to target and RMAN.
    5. startup nomount from RMAN.
    6.executed the following commands
    RMAN> run {
    2> allocate channel t1 type sbt;
    3> validate backupset 2805233;
    4> }

    I’ve got the backupset key from RMAN catalog, but it is failing to validate the backup set.
    And also all the subsequent attempts to restore spfile/controlfile/database are failing.
    Now, I have been advised by Oracle that this is the problem with Media Manager and I have to contact
    them, unfortunately I dont have support service from Veritas.
    Could any of you guys please advise, do we need to do any other configrations in net back to Identify
    the tapes from foreigen envirnment/ do we need to pass any more paramters from RMAN to see the newly
    mounted TAPS?
    Your help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Zach

    Zach,
    Can you certain tests for me ?
    1)
    Lets assume some terms here
    a) origclient = your target host
    b) altclient = your destination host
    c)media manager server = host that contains your netbackup master software
    Can you goto altclient and first check if your altclient is able to browse the backups generated by the origclient
    $NETBACKUP_HOME/bin/bplist -C <origClient> -t 4 -l -R /
    2) Have you configured your ORACLE_HOME on the destination to link one of its libraries to the Media Management software ?
    goto $ORACLE_HOME/lib
    ls -lrt libobk.sl . This file should be a softlink to $NETBACKUP_HOME/bin/libobk.sl64
    3) Please use the SEND command in your RMAN restore scripts. You need so specify the NB_ORA_SERV (your media management master server) and NB_ORA_CLIENT (your origclient host)
    SEND 'NB_ORA_SERV=<media manager server>, NB_ORA_CLIENT=<origclient>';
    4) Make sure your $NETBACKUP_HOME/bp.conf has the required parameters for client and server. client will be your origclient and server will be your media management server that has the netbackup master software

  • RMAN Restore Control File Fails - File Header Validation Fails

    hi everyone,
    This is 9i on Windows 2000.
    I'm trying to restore a control file from a backup made by RMAN on another server.
    I expected Oracle/RMAN to choke because it knows the backup file was not made from this servers database.
    RMAN>restore control file from '......' gives ORA-19563 Control File header validation failed
    Is there a way to force RMAN to restore a file, in a situation like this?
    Thanks,
    John

    >>I expected Oracle/RMAN to choke because it knows the backup file was not made from this servers database.
    What do you mean by this statement ? Do you mean that the servers are on different platforms ? If so first you need to do RMAN platform conversion to able to recognize the controlfile.
    If not, Can you make sure of the following
    1) source and target servers are same operating system
    2) source and target database homes have same versions.

    Thanks Levi,
    I slightly modified your script to recatalog the backup pieces since they are note stored at the same location in PR and QA.
    No luck. The error message is different but the result is the same... it keeps failing.

  • If I need a full rman restore which backups will it use?

    Hello,
    I have a database 11.1.0.7 with 8TB. Block change tracking is enabled.
    At the weekend I take level 0 backup and during the week level 1 cumulative.
    For some weeks the level 0 backup is failing, so I only have level 1 cumulative backups taken every week day with a 4 weeks old level 0 backup.
    If I need a full rman restore which backups will it use? Will it be the last level 0 backup with the last level 1 cumulative?
    I ask this because grid crontrol tells me that the recent level 1 backups input size is smaller than last week level 1 backups and in between I dont have any level 0 sucessfull backups. Shouldn't the input size of level 1 cumulative increase until the next level 0 backup ?
    The grid reports:

    From http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/backup.111/b28270/rcmvalid.htm
    Validating Backups Before Restoring Them
    You can run RESTORE ... VALIDATE to test whether RMAN can restore a specific file or set of files from a backup. RMAN chooses which backups to use.
    The database must be mounted or open for this command. You do not have to take datafiles offline when validating the restore of datafiles, because validation of backups of the datafiles only reads the backups and does not affect the production datafiles.
    When validating files on disk or tape, RMAN reads all blocks in the backup piece or image copy. RMAN also validates offsite backups. The validation is identical to a real restore operation except that RMAN does not write output files.
    You can monitor what RESTORE VALIDATE does.
    Make precautions, so you do not damage the production DB!!!

  • RMAN restore from active database, ASM

    I'm attempting to refresh a stage database from a prod database using RMAN restore from active database. Both are on ASM. After working through various hurdles, I've got one issue I'm a bit stuck on. I've got a handful of data files that do NOT have OMF names (ie MSTRDATA/mstrmdpd/datafile/gsa_indx instead of MSTRDATA/mstrmdpd/datafile/gsa_indx.351.714779777) and these are failing when I do the restore. The syntax I'm using in RMAN is as follows:
    duplicate target database to dwstage
    from active database
    spfile parameter_value_convert 'dwprod','dwstage'
    SET DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT '+DWPROD','+DWSTAGE'
    SET LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT '+DWPROD','+DWSTAGE';
    The error message I'm getting is this:
    RMAN-03009: failure of backup command on ORA_DISK_1 channel at 04/21/2011 13:26:24
    ORA-17628: Oracle error 19505 returned by remote Oracle server
    continuing other job steps, job failed will not be re-run
    Normally from what I've seen/read this error can be traced back to needing to pre-create the directories for the controlfiles etc, but since 90% of the datafiles copied correctly...
    Any suggestions as to a way around this, or am I going to be forced to restore from a backupset?

    This fails saying that "ORA-12528: TNS:listener: all appropriate instances are blocking new connections" which is quite normal given that the listener is havig a handle in BLOCKED state for this AUXDB as it is in NOMOUNT state.
    Could you please help me on how to proceed?
    One option can be to create the controlfile manually and mount the instance before doing the duplicate. I hope Rman can continue from there.
    Another option is to go for backup based duplicate.
    Is there any other way to go?
    Provide static registration on AUXILIARY side for your auxiliary instance and try again.For example change listener.ora file as
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
      (SID_LIST =
        (SID_DESC =
          (GLOBAL_DBNAME = AUXDB)
          (ORACLE_HOME = <your oracle home>)
          (SID_NAME = AUXDB)
    LISTENER =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <auxiliary host/ip>)(PORT = 1521))
      )And restart listener on auxiliary host then try again

  • Does RMAN restore from 11.2.0.3 to 11.1.0.7?

    Hi Team,
    Interesting point is here, source is on 11.2.0.3 and somehow we missed 11.2.0 home on target (my team mate forgot to built new 11.2.0.3 home - we have 11.1.0 home), not sure how this rman restored/recovered  with no issues on target even it has compatibility change (controlfile restore itself should fail).
    Source is 11.2.0.3 and target is 11.1.0.7, presently the instance up and running with no issues, but we decided to re build with 11.2.0.3 home
    Any hints? Please advice, I am curious about this functionality how did this happen! J
    Thanks,
    Venkat

  • Block corruptioin after rman restore/recovery

    Thanks for taking my question!
    Oracle Enterprise Edition 11.1.0.7 on Windows 2008. Using Rman on-line backups COMPRESSED.
    Can anyone give me any ideas on why SYSAUX data block corruption should occur after a rman recovery?
    Below is my script. Am I missing something? Should I be physically removing the redo? Any ideas welcome?
    Thanks!
    Kathie
    rman> restore until seq = 123
    recover until seq = 123
    alter database open resetlogs;
    Background:
    I had to do a rman recovery the other day to restore our database back to the previous day. After the recovery the sysaux table became logically corrupted. I tried to fix data corruption with rman but it said it couldn't after reading thru 6 days of backups. I ended up deleting the database, recreating the database and restoring from an export takien a few hours prior.
    I now have a database to test rman recovery. Database has been up and rman backups (compressed) running for several days. I tried to recover back to previouse day and again SYSAUX has logical corruption. I tried to use Rman to recover data corruption but it failed.
    I deleted database and recreated it. Took several rman on-line backups (this time not compressed). Did 3rd recovery this time only a few hours back. This time everything worked - no sysaux block corruption but why? The only difference is the recovery used non compressed backups and recovery was a shorter time frame. why ???

    I agree the errors are not identical but I am going to stop performing compressed backups until I am sure that is not the issue.
    My first two recoveries had logical block corruption and this last one without compression set had no block corruption. I performed the same recovery process for all recoveries and the big difference was the successfull recovery did not have compressed backups. I checked v$database_block_corruption and it shows no errors. I also, performed a backup and verify to double check.
    The only issue I can see is below. I am hoping someone can confirm this is normal after "alter database open resetlogs". Can anyone verify that?
    Thanks!

  • RMAN duplicate failed

    Hi all,
    have below doubts.
    IF RMAN duplicate failed in the middle of the process due to disk full or any other reason.
    Do I start from the beginning again or is there anyway to sort of "resume" from where it stopped?
    Please consider what need to do in 9i or in 10G.
    Please also reply what need to do for FS or for ASM.
    Please also share if you have any doc or link.

    Hi,
    IF RMAN duplicate failed in the middle of the process due to disk full or any other reason.See always perform fresh duplicate.
    it will overwrite the existing files... so you need to check in alert log file like how many files restored & recovered during duplicate..

    What it automatically skips?
    1)did RMAN duplicate knows about earlier restores...
    2)if i restored system,sysaux,users,undo datafiles of another database and again I'm performing another database in same location.. so it will skip?
    are you sure...

    can we copy the RMAN files to some other location instead of default control file location and restore from there ? Catalog the backup before restoring the tablespace
    or just put the backup in the default location as in your case it is in folder "C:\Rman_files\"
