Setting up rman backups - am I missing something?

I have inherited an oracle 10g database on Windows and I need to set up RMAN backups. I am going through the steps and I think I am still missing something.
I am trying to put the database in archivelog mode and it gives me this error:
ORA-01126: database must be mounted in this instance and not open in any instance
So I try to mount the database (alter database mount;) and it says:
ORA-01100: database already mounted
So I figure someone else has it open so I shut it down (shutdown immediate), which works fine, but when I try to restart it (startup mount;) it tells me:
ORA-24324: service handle not initialized
ORA-01041: internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist
So I try to log into a new session and it tells me:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
The only way I can find to restart it is to restart the service OracleServiceDATABASENAME. When it is restarted, it lets me log in, but then I get the same errors as above when I try to mount the database or put it in archivelog mode.
Please let me know what I am missing.
Thanks!

Over Windows, database service has a vital role in the management of the database. Without it being started, you can't do anything with oracle db. Fro your error,
>
ORA-24324:
service handle not initialized
Cause: An attempt was made to use an improper service context handle.
Action: Verify that the service context handle has all the parameters initialized prior to this call.>
It may be possible that you have used an inappropriate service name to start teh database. The other error comes up when the datbase is either just started or is unaware about teh name being requested by teh client to get connected, due to wrong name being chosen or an unknown name being chosen.
All this basically means that you may have either done typos or tried to start some service which was never there. The best way is to set Oracle sid using
set oracle_sid=<your sid>And then do what ever you want to.

How to set the Rman backup parameter.

Hi,
Can U guide me how to set the Rman backup path,control file auto backup & others parameter.

Hi,
Go through this,
Show all configurable settings:
RMAN>SHOW ALL;
Write disk backups to the /rmanback directory: (%U will be replaced with unique filenames)
RMAN> CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/rmanback/%U';
Backup using a flash recovery area rather than disk
RMAN> CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT CLEAR;
Configure RMAN to back up the control file after each backup
RMAN> CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
By default, RMAN automatically names control file backups and stores them in the flashrecovery area.
To configure RMAN to write control file backups to the /backup directory:( %F will generate a unique filename)
RMAN> CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/backup/controlfile%F';
Ensure that RMAN retains all backups needed to recover the database to any point in time in the last 7 days:
RMAN> CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 7 DAYS;
Retain three backups of each datafile:
RMAN> CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 3;
Delete backups no longer required by the retention policy:
RMAN> DELETE OBSOLETE;
To override the configured retention policy for individual backups - use BACKUP.. KEEP (or CHANGE.. KEEP)
Configure backups to run in parallel by assigning two sbt channels:
RMAN> CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE sbt PARALLELISM 2;
Reset any CONFIGURE setting to its default by running the command with the CLEAR option
RMAN> CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE sbt CLEAR;
RMAN> CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY CLEAR;

Rman backup with a missing archivelog.

hello,
I backed my database up yesterday after you guys helped me fix few problems I had on it. I used RMAN with the following command in a run block:
*run {*
allocate channel t1 type disk;
backup current controlfile ;
backup database;
backup archivelog all delete input;
release channel c1;
At the end of the operation, RMAN indicates that and archivelog is missing and it couldn't find it. As a result, recover operation can be compromised. Now am confused because I do not know whether the command executed successfully or not and how to fix the missing archivelog.
Below is the entire output of the operation along with error message:

Here's my nderstanding and please correct me if am wrong:
The first 3 instructions of the run block executed successfully, but
the last one didn't. Is that so?
Whatever the understanding, do I have a backup? WHat can I do to have a consistent backup?
Thanks in advance.

Adomi,
It is sad to see you are still running RMAN in 8i fashion where you are on 10g.
The script is bs, sorry
run {
allocate channel t1 type disk; -- not required
backup current controlfile ; -- not required, as this is already done by backup database
backup database;
backup archivelog all delete input;
release channel c1; -- not required.
If you have controlfile autobackup on, you could just
backup database plus archivelog
and be done with it.
As you didn't make a RMAN backup from the start, your backup archivelog statement should have read
backup archivelog all skip inaccessible delete input;
Once that succeeds Oracle shouldn't need the archivelog anymore, and you should make a second backup without the skip inaccessible clause.

I set up Airport wireless, but I miss something my network can not be found and I need connect manually every time with my ipod?

I have problems finding my connection, I configured the Airport Express Internet is ok the light is green, but always need to connect manually , when I look for my network never show??What I need change ????

Modem -> Router -> Airport -> Wireless DHCP
                  |
                  |
                 V
            Work PC's Static Ip's
It would be a requirement that the wireless connections were on a seperate network that could not see any of the work PC's
Everything depends on the router ..
If the router offers vlan.. then you can set the airport to a different vlan than the Work computers and it will work fine.. But your setup currently is such that wireless clients behind the airport even if they get a different IP address range would still be able to access the work PC's.
Another possible method is to use secondary IP address in the router.. this is same idea as vlan really but some routers offer IP alias.. or secondary IP.. it has a number of names.. This would not fully protect the computers on the main IP address range but via firewall in the computers will effectively do so. It would be important to make sure the local firewall is setup and running.

Moving RMAN backup to tape

Hi,
how do we move the backup of the database that has taken by rman to the tap.
Ex:
I have a database and backup has taken by rman by connecting in no catalog mode. like $rman target /
so backup are generated and stored on the disk only.
Now if i want to move these backup file to tap, how we can move these files.
Please let me know
Thank you!

Backups of Backup Sets
The RMAN BACKUP BACKUPSET command backs up backup sets that were created on disk. The command is a useful way to spread backups among multiple media.
If RMAN discovers that one copy of a backup set is corrupted or missing, then it searches for other copies of the same backup set. This behavior is similar to the behavior of RMAN when backing up archived redo logs that exist in multiple archiving destinations.
Example 7-2 shows how you might run the BACKUP command weekly as part of the production backup schedule. In this way, you ensure that all your backups exist on both disk and tape.
Example 7-2 Backing Up Backup Sets to Tape
BACKUP DEVICE TYPE DISK AS BACKUPSET
DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;
BACKUP
DEVICE TYPE sbt
BACKUPSET ALL; # copies backup sets on disk to tape

RMAN Backup Doubt...

Hi all,
I have set up RMAN Backup in my system which takes daily full backup as it is Standara Edition 9i.
My db size is 35GB.
As is see in the backup folder that there are three backup files each of 35GB.
I don't know why there are three peices.
I have given my RMAN Configuration below:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 7 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 'H:\OCTO backup\%F';
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1;
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 'H:\OCTO backup\OCTO_%U';
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED;
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'H:\OCTO backup\SNCFOCTO.ORA';
Can Anybody explain me how come it take Three 35GB files. and why.
Thanks in Advance....

RMAN backup policy needed to confirm!

Hi, All friends:
I am working on a production db, now set up Rman backup policy.
My purpose: keep only one backupset of datafile and control file, backup all archived logs--never delete--so database can be recovered to any time before.
so for Rman configuration;
configure retention policy to redundancy 1;
in DB control, setup a night whole db backup with backup archivelog and with with delete obsolete.
Am I right?
if anything wrong, please tell me, I want to confirm.
thanks a lot in advance.

thanks for your answer.
I want to use disk for backup storage because db size is small(only 7G) and we want a quick recovery.
To clarity, for my understanding,
if
configure retention policy to redundancy 1;
backups of archived redo logs won't be marked as obsolete, only backups of datafiles and control files will be marked as obsolete.
so if you run delete obsolete. it won't delete backups of archived logs.
(this is not like recovery windows, say you set retention policy to recovery window of 4 days, if you delete obsolete, RMAN will delete both backups of archived logs and data/control files)
AM I RiGHT?
thanks

How to control RMAN backup of archive logs in FRA

Setup:
11.2.0.2 GI
ASM Diskgroup for Fast Recovery Area
10.2.0.4 Enterprise Database
Without Catalog Database
To get familiar with Flashback Database we set up RMAN Backups
without deleting the archive logs,
as published in Oracle10g / 11g - Getting Started with Recovery Manager (RMAN) (Doc ID 360416.1)
"These deletions are managed by Oracle when space is required."
We observed that RMAN takes backups of all archive logs every time,
here we go with backing up archive logs every 30 minutes.
So the question is:
Is this (backing up all archive logs every time) the expected behavior or
the result of not using a catalog database or
any other mismatch?
thanx for any hint
Michael

Hi Michael,
In Note 360416.1 it refers to two archivelog backup commands.
BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ALL;and
BACKUP ARCHIVELOG FROM TIME 'SYSDATE-30' UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE-7';Your question:
Is this (backing up all archive logs every time) the expected behavior or the result of not using a catalog database or any other mismatch?If you used the first script you will backup alle archivelogs everytime.
If you use the second one it will do a subset (probably not the range you want to backup...)
You could implement another script
BACKUP ARCHIVELOG NOT BACKED UP 2 TIMES;So every archivelog is only backed up twice.
Check

how can i prevent rman setting db_name=orcl which is already exists in the db.. i need to create db from rman backups with different dbname...
whould someone help me out, how can i create database from another database rman backups with different dbname/sid on same host..
My pfile has new db_name , but while db creation rman setting to db_name to source dbname.. it should be new db name that i want create with new db name...
is there any RMAN command to specify new DB name it should set while running
sql statement: alter system set db_name = newdbname -- as part rman script execution...
it appears to be i should not touch the soruce db.. i have access to only source db rman backups and need to create another db with different dbname/sid.. please do help...

When you performing RMAN duplicate why you making your script so complicated?
Your instance name and DB name can be different, But what is the contents in your pfile "D:\TESTDELETE\initclonedb1.ora" ? please do post
Have you started any other services related to ORACLE? check in start --> run --> services.msc any other active oracles services, Make sure you have clonedb1.
Startup in nomount
check the connectivity to target server.
SET NEWNAME FOR TEMPFILE 1 TO 'F:\app\HOME\oradata\clonedb1\TEMP01.DBF';Why you mentioning SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE ? You have option of db_file_name_convert/log_file_name_convert in case if your file system different in Target & auxiliary.
BACKUP LOCATION 'F:\app\HOME\flash_recovery_area\orcl\'When you have backup in same location why you are mentioning this clause?
First run duplicate from auxiliary server as
rman target sys/*****@prod auxiliary /
RMAN> duplicate target database to "db_name";
Am not sure what you are trying to do. is it 11gR1 or 11gR2?
You have option of duplicate from active database without having backup also..
here some links please check it.

Duplicate an old RMAN backup set on Oracle 9.2.0.8 with no catalog

Version: 9.2.0.8. We don't use an RMAN catalog
Scenario: I need to duplicate a database to the same server with a different name so I can recover some old data. The restored backup set is about 20 days old
and my RMAN retention is 1 day.
Current date: 24 March 2011
I try
./rman target sys/syspassword@pasdbt9i auxiliary /
RMAN> duplicate target database to pastemp until time "to_date('04-MAR-2011 18:30:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";

I presume this is happening because the target database has a retention of one day and is unaware of this rman backup that is about 20 days old.
If this is true, is there a way of telling the target database about this old backup set that I now want to duplicate?
From 10g onwards you can catalog a backup piece which might be the fix for this??
I've got round the problem by restoring the database to a different server, but would still like to know if the above is possible.
Can anyone offer any suggestions? thanks.

Hi C3PO,
I presume this is happening because the target database has a retention of one day and is unaware of this rman backup that is about 20 days old?Correct the backupset metadata is nolonger available.
From 10g onwards you can catalog a backup piece which might be the fix for this??In 9i you can catalog image copies.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96565/rcmsynta11.htm#1005792
Can anyone offer any suggestions?Another option would be setup a catalog and change the retention policy to 30 days and add extra diskspace.

I set up library in Iluustrator but can't access it in In Design - am I missing something?

I love the fact I can sort all my relevant assets, logos, colour, fonts etc into the Library in Illustrator but I want to work in InDesign too but I can't open the library in Indesign.
Have I missed something ?

Apparently the answer is no. This really is poor for a set of applications that are supposed to be integrated. Come on Adobe get your act together, you have libraries in Indesign that are different to those in illustrator and photoshop?

Hi
I have just set up itunes match on my new imac. It is saying I can access all my 9000 songs but only the playlist tab is live - I can't access albums or songs. Am I missing something?
Thanks

Hi,
I do not understand your problem. iTunes Match does not change the way iTunes looks. When match process is complete, the match screen tells you how much music you have in the cloud.
Across the top of screen you have options to select songs, albums, artist, composers etc.
Suggest that from main menu, select view>show sidebar.

Sigh. You wouldn't be willing to spend some time in the manuals, would you?
RMAN actually consists of 2 parts:
- the shell, which you invoke;
- the rman procedure, which is inside the Oracle database kernel.
Your request is sent to the kernel, and is executed by the kernel. Therefore the kernel must be running.
If your database is in ARCHIVELOG mode, you can do a hot backup - simply go into RMAN and tell it to backup the database.
However, if you are in NOARCHIVELOG mode, you must ensure that nothing can change in the database files. Therefore you can not have the database in the OPEN state.
In the NOARCHIVELOG mode, you MUST shut down the database, then re-start it using STARTUP MOUNT. Then you can get RMAN to do it's backup, after which you can then ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
The other advantage of ARCHIVELOG mode is that the database can be restored to virtually any point in time, whereas a NOARCHIVELOG database can ONLY be restored to the backup point in time.
However, the advantage does come at a price - disk space for the archive logs which are used to reconstruct any point in time.

Setting up rman backups - am I missing something?
