Hi all,
I have migrated database from 8i to 10gr2.For Backup in 8i, we used a RMAN shell script (scheduled uding cron tab) to backup the database to Tape.(VERITAS BACKUP).
I am new to 10G.I checked out the options to backup the database using Oracle Enterprise manager DB console.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/10gr2_db_single/ha/rman/rman_otn.htm#t1d
I am planning to take a test backup using the steps mentioned inthe above url.Could any one suggest whcih is the best option for database backup,eiether to use Oracle Enterprise manager DB console or thru RMAN shell script for backup..?

I woudn't suggest you to work with EM if you want to be a professional DBA. Start learning RMAN and use CLI instead of GUI

  • Shell script for export backup in oracle 11g

    Hi,

    How to write shell script for export full backup in oracle 11g and also need to remove 2 days of old backup.

    How to write shell script for export full backup in oracle 11g
    Do you mean that export is your backup strategy ? is your database running in noarchivelog mode ? if so, then why ? if not so, then why not RMAN ?
    need to remove 2 days of old backup.
    If that mean remove files older than 2 days, you can use something like this :
    $ find <absolute directory path> -mtime +2 -exec rm {} \;

  • Shell Script for automatic backup

    Hello Every one,
    We have windows network and sun solaris sparc box. (both from Sun Box and from Windows machine I can communcate using Telnet.)
    I wish to take data backup of a system having windows operating system, into
    the sun solaris sparc box automatically by week end .
    Can anyone help me with the shell script which does this operation.
    Regards,
    Dwarak

    first of all, is there nfs running? and on windoze box, do u have any nfs client program running?
    you cant transfer files frm the windoze machine via telnet..
    once you can settle the above, what you can do is a simple copy script and put it in your crontab.

    What issue are you facing, exactly? You said:
    "I wrote shell scriptevery thing is working like showning me names of datafiles
    but now showing member of redo logs
    and name of controlfile"
    That's what the script looks like it's supposed to do. Did you mean to say "not showing member of redo logs and name of controlfile" instead of "now"?

  • Can anybody provide AIX shell script for Oracle Apps R12 instance backup

    Hi
    Can anybody provide AIX shell script for Oracle Apps R12 instance backup? Manually, i am able to backup but i donot have shell script to schedule through crontab.
    Help me please.
    Thanks

    Rman can be used for Database, not for Application tier. Again, I assumed you are looking for a script to backup the database. For the application tier, you can simply do a filesystem backup.
    I still do not understand your concern? Is it about using crontab? If so, then check here --> man crontab <--

  • Need Help in creating Unix Shell Script for database

    Would be appreciable if some one can help in creating unix shell script for the Oracle DB 10,11g.
    Here is the condition which i want to implement.
    1. Create shell script to create the database with 10GB TB SPACE and 3 groups of redo log file(Each 300MB).
    2. Increase size of redolog file.
    3. Load sample schema.
    4. dump the schema.
    5. Create empty db (Script should check if db already exists and drop it in this case).
    6. Create backup using rman.
    7. restore backup which you have backed up.

    This isn't much of a "code-sharing" site but a "knowledge-sharing" site.  Code posted me may be from a questioner who has a problem / issue / error with his code.   But we don't generally see people writing entire scripts as responses to such questions as yours.  There may be other sites where you can get coding done "for free".
    What you could do is to write some of the code and test it and, if and when it fails / errors, post it for members to make suggestions.
    But the expectation here is for you to write your own code.

  • Getting error while running script for online backup

    Hi,
    I am running a script for online backup but ended up with an the below error.
    *ERROR* [Backup Worker Thread] com.day.crx.core.backup.Backup Failed to create temporary directory
    Please help out in resolving this.
    Thanks in Advnace.
    Maheswar

    Hi mahesh,
    If you are using backup feature from crx console, I mean http://localhost:4502/crx/config/backup.jsp  I can say that we had also some problems with this functionalities.
    First off all what you need to check are the permissions, because when you check a source code there is line which creates a File object using a path specified by you to make a backup of repository.
    File targetDir = new File(req.getParameter("targetDir", listDir.getParentFile().getAbsolutePath()));
    You need to have sure that the proper read write access has been granted for this path.
    Another issue is that maybe there was already prepared some hotfix if you are using CQ5.4. Please refer to the following link:
    http://dev.day.com/content/kb/home/Crx/CrxSystemAdministration/CRXOnlineBackup.html
    and also to this one:
    http://dev.day.com/content/docs/en/crx/current/release_notes/overview.html which contains a hotfix number #34797 which was applied to backup.jsp file.

  • Shell script for archive log transfer

    hi
    I dont want to reinvent the wheel.
    I am looking for shell script for log shipping to provide standby db.
    What I want to do is, get the last applied archived log number from alert.log
    Copy the files from archive destination according to this value.
    Cheers

    If you don't want to re-invent the wheel you use Dataguard, no scripts.
    And your script should use the dictionary, instead of some bs method to read the alert.
    v$archived_log has all information!
    Also as far as I know, the documentation describes manual standby.
    So apparently you not only don't want to reinvent the wheel, but you want the script on a silver plate on your doorstep!
    Typical attitude of most DBAs here. Use OTN for a permanent vacation.

    Hi ASP
    It's always a good idea to write entries to timestamped log file without which you will never know where the script went wrong or failed.
    This is not tested but just a small example
    #!/bin/sh
    export LOG_DIR=/tmp/log
    export LOGFILE=$LOG_DIR/`basename $0`_${TIMESTAMP}.log
    if [ ! -d $LOG_DIR ]
    then
         mkdir $LOG_DIR
    fi
    echo "Removing the temporary files from /tmp/dbmon at `date +%Y%m%d_%H:%M:%S`" | tee -a $LOG_FILE
    rm -f /tmp/dbmon/DB1*
    CONNSTRING=username/PASSWORD@service
    echo "Run SQLPlus file" | tee -a $LOG_FILE
    sqlplus -s $CONNSTRING @/tmp/STATS.sql << EOF
    EXIT;
    EOF
    echo "Now FTP the files to windows box " | tee -a $LOG_FILE
    HOST='xxxxx'
    USER='xxxxx'
    PASSWD='xxxxxx'
    cd /tmp/dbmon
    ftp -vn $HOST <<EOF
    quote USER $USER

    SHUTDOWN
    SHUTDOWN ABORT]
    Shuts down a currently running Oracle instance, optionally closing and dismounting a database.
    Terms
    Refer to the following list for a description of each term or clause:
    ABORT
    Proceeds with the fastest possible shutdown of the database without waiting for calls to complete or users to disconnect.
    Uncommitted transactions are not rolled back. Client SQL statements currently being processed are terminated. All users currently connected to the database are implicitly disconnected and the next database startup will require instance recovery.
    You must use this option if a background process terminates abnormally.
    IMMEDIATE
    Does not wait for current calls to complete or users to disconnect from the database.
    Further connects are prohibited. The database is closed and dismounted. The instance is shutdown and no instance recovery is required on the next database startup.
    NORMAL
    NORMAL is the default option which waits for users to disconnect from the database.
    Further connects are prohibited. The database is closed and dismounted. The instance is shutdown and no instance recovery is required on the next database startup.
    TRANSACTIONAL [LOCAL]
    Performs a planned shutdown of an instance while allowing active transactions to complete first. It prevents clients from losing work without requiring all users to log off.
    No client can start a new transaction on this instance. Attempting to start a new transaction results in disconnection. After completion of all transactions, any client still connected to the instance is disconnected. Now the instance shuts down just as it would if a SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE statement was submitted. The next startup of the database will not require any instance recovery procedures.
    The LOCAL mode specifies a transactional shutdown on the local instance only, so that it only waits on local transactions to complete, not all transactions. This is useful, for example, for scheduled outage maintenance.
    Usage
    SHUTDOWN with no arguments is equivalent to SHUTDOWN NORMAL.
    You must be connected to a database as SYSOPER, or SYSDBA. You cannot connect via a multi-threaded server. For more information about connecting to a database, see the CONNECT command earlier in this chapter.
