RMAN Setup in oracle 9.2.0

Hi,
I need to setup a RMAN backup for my company from the scratch.
How do i add disk as a device in V$BACKUP_DEVICE table
I'm unable to create a channel with alpha numeric name
Even if i create a channel with numeric name i'm unable to allocate it,
i need to do a disk backup
When ever i try to create a channel with alpha numeric name i get the following error:
RMAN> configure channel c_1 device type disk;
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

In 9.2 RMAN CHANNELs are configured as Integers only

  • How can we achive active/active cluster setup with Oracle

    Hi Experts,
    How can we achieve active/active database setup with oracle WITHOUT USING RAC.. As far as I know it's impossible (unless I'm wrong)..
    We are using Oracle 11.2.0.1 64bit on Windows 2008 server. We deployed Oracle FailSafe but that's more of an active/passive solution based on a windows cluster.
    The other solution we were thinking about is to use DataGuard and replication.. two servers.. the oracle instance running on one server generating logs, and the other server receive the logs and apply them to the physical standby db.. Still, this is not a real active/active setup.
    So, is it possible to run 2 servers in an active/active cluster and have the oracle database in an active/active setup or have the instance running on multiple nodes (at the same time)?
    Thanks

    Let me give you a brief explanation of what the situation is and you can be the judge..
    My client have four databases with the smallest one being 20GB and the biggest around the 35gb (SGA 750mb to 1.4gb (Tiny by DB standards) and probably on a normal day, you can run all four of them on a decent desktop).. The DBs are used to keep track of people information. Through out the year, the databases are almost sitting idle, and by idle I mean, the odd update here and there, the odd report..etc. No hard real processing of any sort. Two days of the year (end of year) we have all the operators consolidating records and what's not and they will be pounding away entering data and updating the tables - with hourly reports that goes to 3rd parties. The client expects a 99.99 up time and availability during those 2 days.
    Now, tell me, How can I justify using RAC and spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in licensing and what ever extra costs introduced by the complexity of the environment for the above scenario knowing that I don't have any real use for RAC for 363 days of the year; and we MIGHT need it for 2 days of the year? This is the dilemma we're facing.
    Thanks

  • RMAN / backup.  oracle 9 vs. oracle 10

    My colleague mentioned a while ago that we had to investigate RMAN &/or a backup client, "because in oracle 10, when doing an export of a live db, oracle does not switch into "single user mode" like it did in 9. So we couldn't have 100% faith in our .dmp file."
    I'd like to do some further research on this, but looking through the "Oracle 10 Complete reference" and googling - I don't see any information about it. Has anyone here dealt with this or know of a link I should see?
    Finally... Does anyone know if an RMAN backup for Oracle 10 accounts for any "in progres" transactions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mike.

    Oracle, itself, doesn't switch to single user mode.
    Your colleague might have been talking of scripts which shutdown and restart the
    database in restricted mode to run an export of the database.
    RMAN backups as in 8.0/8i/9i/10g (or EBU in Oracle 7) and scripted (aka
    "user managed") backups are all physical backups. They take database blocks
    "as they are". Conceptually, the datafile backups aren't aware of active transactions.
    It is the redo stream in the archivelogs that is required for you to be able to restore
    and recreate a consistent database image.

  • RMAN backup in ORACLE RAC database

    Hi there,
    We are using RMAN backup strategy for taking backups from one node(eg.node1).Database is RAC database, version 9.2.3. and OS is Solaris 5.10.
    this is the configuration which we use, as follows:
    Connecting to Prod.Database using catalog database.
    rman catalog=rman/rman@CATDB target=sys/oracle@PRODDB(node 2).
    RMAN> show all;
    RMAN configuration parameters are:
    CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 30;

  • Setup between Oracle streams and MQ

    Hi All,
    I m trying to create the setup between oracle streams and Messing Queue(MQ).i have already install MQClient on my machine and messing gateways is also working fine,but accoring to setup docs i have created one user having all the granst they provide in docs and created queuetable,queue,dml handler,tables rules and starting queue after that we have done Capture and Apply process on that user, in other word u have say the entire setup but our data is not propagating that messaage to MQ.
    So if anyone has specific setup code then pl provide or any suggestion u want can give.
    thnks & regards
    Sanjeev

    Hi Sanjeev,
    There is a special forum dedicated to Oracle Streams: Streams
    You may want to try there.
    Extra tip: post the code you used. That way it is easier for people to see what you might have done wrong.

    Hi,
    Is there a FNDLOAD command for Responsibility Mapping setup in Oracle Service.

  • RMAN backup and Oracle RAC

    Hello,
    I am newbie with Oracle RAC 11g.
    So, I do the following steps to configure RMAN to back up the Oracle RAC:
    - Create a tablespace to RMAN User;
    - Create the user rman;
    - Connect to catalog (the databsae RAC itself);
    - Register the database;
    - Create the "complete_backup" script on catalog.
    So, when I enter on Enterprise Manager, I can see
    the "Availability" tab and the "Recovery Catalog Settings" link.
    I setup the user rman that I've created with the host RAC1.
    Is this really necessary on EM? The "Backup Setting" on EM
    is equals to rman (database user) catalog?
    When I go to "Schedule backup", I want to use the "complete_backup" script
    that I've created. What the best way to schedule this script
    to run each sunday, for example?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    To perfom a test you can create a new single database (RCVCAT) in one of the hosts that you have.
    Create a database without any option with and use minimum of memory (don't use memory_target) set pga (50M) and sga(400M).
    Create a user RMAN; with Grant connect,resource,recovery_catalog_owner.
    Tablespace RCVCAT;
    With RMAN connect on RCVCAT and create your catalog.

  • RMAN configuration in ORACLE RAC database

    Hi there,
    We are using RMAN backup strategy for taking backups from one node(eg.node1).Database is RAC database, version 9.2.3. and OS is Solaris 5.10.
    this is the configuration which we use, as follows:
    Connecting to Prod.Database using catalog database.
    rman catalog=rman/rman@CATDB target=sys/oracle@PRODDB(node 2).
    RMAN> show all;
    RMAN configuration parameters are:
    CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 30;
    CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
    CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/rmanback/_%F';
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 5;
    CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
    CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/rmanback/CMWPROD_%s.bak';
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL 2 DEVICE TYPE DISK CONNECT 'SYS/oracle@PRODDB(node2)';
    CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO 7 G;
    CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/oracle/9.2.3/dbs/snapcf_CMWPROD1.f';
    As the above config shows RMAN is connecting to PROD DB (node 2). But we need to take backups (datafiles and as well as archive logs) from two nodes (i.e from node 1 and as well as node 2).
    Is there any possibility for taking backups from two nodes?
    Thanks,
    Balu.

    You will need to setup an NFS share such that both nodes can access each other's archived redo logs area. You also need to ensure your LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter settings are properly set. Once setup correctly, either node will be able to run the backup and include each other's archived redo log files. Since this is RAC, the data files are shared by design and either node can already backup these files.
    Multiple channels would allow 'simultaneous' backup of the archived redo logs.
    I would highly recommend using a CFS (single shared file system where all nodes store their archived redo logs distinguished by thread) to store the archived redo logs, this reduces administration and configuration especially when you get ready to scale.
    Hope this helps.

  • Idiot needs help!  Setup Home Oracle Linux Server

    I'm trying to setup a Linux server using an old PC. I can download Oracle Linux in a zipped file from Oracle. Then, I'm suppose to unzip using an Oracle supplied utility and burn the extracted files to a DVD. My client PC is running Vista Home. I'm a little confused on how I unzip the "Linux" files and burn them to a DVD. I would think this should all be done in a Linux environment/(or on a Linux box) - this is what I'm trying to setup. How do I get the ISO IMG files extracted and burned for a Linux boot cd? If it sounds like I don't know what I'm talking about, you're right - I don't.
    HELP!
    Edited by: 899355 on Nov 27, 2011 11:38 AM

    Most PC's come with DVD/CD authoring software installed, like Nero or MagicISO maker, etc. What software do you have available? There is plenty of information available in Google about how to burn an iso image to dvd. Or you could check http://www.wikihow.com/Burn-ISO-Files-to-DVD. Whatever you choose, make sure to burn the raw ISO image and NOT the disk of the "mounted" .ISO image. I would also recommend 7-zip to unzip the downloaded files.
    In case you are installing this for educational or development purpose and your PC has at least 4 GB of RAM you may consider to use free Oracle VirutalBox from http://www.virtualbox.org. It can boot and use saved .iso files without the need to burn media. This option will not jeopardize your Windows installation and allow you to run Linux as a Guest OS under your current Windows OS, when you need it. Don't fumble around with old fashioned dual-boot options - it's better to get some more cheap RAM and bigger disk if necessary. There are also pre-build virtual machines available at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html

  • Oracle EBS R12 - DR setup using Oracle Data Guard

    Hi,
    Our customer has implemented Oracle EBS R12 (12.0.6) on a Two Node RAC on HP-UX env. The application Tier also has Two Nodes(Admin Tier and Web Tier).
    Oracle Clusterware - OCR and Vote Disk are on Raw Devices and the EBS database is on ASM.
    Customer wants to implement a DR solution with Oracle Data Guard with only 2 servers - 1 for the Database Tier and 1 for the Application Tier on the DR Site.
    I would like to know if this could be done by following note: 452056.1? I would also like to know if there are other useful docs.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Customer escalated this issue to Oracle and they came up with this reply:
    They can implement Disaster recovery solution from RAC to NON RAC using Solution A which use RMAN utilities for backup and recovery.
    While now AMP Application Management Pack gives the capablitiy to build non RAC from RAC Envioment, In future AMP will be capable also to support cloning of DB with Data Guard.
    Details
    Solution A - Using RMAN:
    For Release 12 customers, you can clone from a RAC to RAC (like to like) or RAC to non-RAC. This is using RMAN scripts to take a copy of the db when it’s in archive mode. if you’re leveraging any disaster recovery tools like data guard, the above solution should work fine…perhaps some fine tuning to the procedures
    Solution B - Using AMP in the future release
    For Release 11i , Release 12.x customers, AMP would be offering a new cloning solution that wouldn’t have dependency on Rapid Clone. This solution leverages the strengths of EM Grid Control in provisioning or cloning targets such as databases. This would be an advance solution that would support:
    o A full-fledged scale down cloning
    o Cloning of EBS deployed on Shared File System
    o Hot and Cold mode cloning
    o Quantifiable reduction in clone time for the entire EBS system
    This solution would be leveraging EM grid Control’s DB provisioning pack’s clone utilities, that are quite advanced and support cloning of DB with Data Guard.
    The recommendation is to start trialing AMP version 3.0, making the purchase and implementing within the Enterprise. As we release the new version of AMP (release 3.0.1), Customer would be in a better position to quickly implement the latest features
    Can anyone let me know if the solution A suggested will work.
    Rgds,
    Thiru
