Mean What is tcode for taking backup of all database in 3 requests?
Thanks In Advance.

Hi Naveen.
I would like to suggest,
The Transaction code for backups is DB13.
Generaly, the transactions related to DB backup management start with DB letters.
I would like to suggest a few references,
[SAP HELP - Standard References for Database backup by BR Tools|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/0c/cd271365debc42bef96ac7fd907787/content.htm]

Privileges required for database backup with RMAN

Hello,
We have 10g R2 on Solaris box. We use RMAN for backup and use the SYS account on the database to connect and take the backup.
Are there specific privileges that are required to take the database backup , so that I do not use the SYS account or the syspassword in the RMAN script.
I want to create an account and give only the privileges required to take the database backup and recover .
Thanks

I think RMAN needs the SYSDBA privilege, so you won't gain much by switching from SYS to another user.
You don't need to store sys/password in a script. You can just :-
rman target / catalog xxx/yyy@catalog

Industry standard for database backup time

We have many databases in our company for which our Database backups are forced to be run by System Administrators at 3PM since their tape backups are starting from 4PM.
As a DBA I am suggesting to run all the tape backups late night so that I can schedule my Database bacukps at atleast 10PM daily.
What is the industry standard for running daily database backups time? Can somebody please provide some links for such standards from a authorising body like Gartner, etc?
Thanks in advance.

There is no such standard. To have one would be simply implausible.
It would depend massively on your infrastructure and where you take backups to. If it's tape, how fast is your networking to the tape, how fast is your tape drive. If it's disk, how fast is the disk you're backing it up to. For both, it depends on the size of the database, what type of backup you're taking and how loaded your database is, how fast your servers are. There are too many variables.
Only you will know how fast your backups take and whether they're taking longer than they should (based on your observations on how long they usually take).

Steps for Cold Backup..

Hi,
I am new for DBA, i need to take cold backup, can some help me what are all step (commands) i need to follow to perform the successful cold backup.
Advance Thanks
Suresh

Hi Suresh,
A cold backup is very simple.Hope your Database is test or Development or practise one,If it is production Database You have inform users for suitable downtime depending on size of your Database. You have to peform these basic steps,Which I'm doing it for you:
Step 1:Find the location of all the physical file(Datafiles,controlfiles,redologs):
For Datafile:
SQL> select file_name||' '||tablespace_name||' '||bytes from dba_data_files;
FILE_NAME||''||TABLESPACE_NAME||''||BYTES
D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\USER123.DBF USER123 104857600

D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\UNDOTBS01.DBF UNDOTBS1 26214400
D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\SYSTEM01.DBF SYSTEM 513802240
For logfile:
SQL> select group#||' '||member from v$logfile;
GROUP#||''||MEMBER
3 D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\REDO03.LOG
2 D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\REDO02.LOG
1 D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\REDO01.LOG
SQL> sho parameter %control%

control_files string D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\CONTROL01.C
TL, D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\CONTROL
02.CTL, D:\ORADATA\BOSCHDB\CON
TROL03.CTL
Step 2: Shutdown the database (IMMEDIATE or NORMAL option):
SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
Step 3: Use OS commands or utilities to copy the database datafiles and control files to your backup destination:
Note 1:Make sure this Backup destination is having enough space
Note 2:If you are doing in any unix flavour use command cp
D:\oradata\BoschDB>copy /b *.DBF D:\TESTDB_BACKUP
EXAMPLE01.DBF
SYSAUX01.DBF
SYSTEM01.DBF
TEMP01.DBF
UNDOTBS01.DBF

7 file(s) copied.
D:\oradata\BoschDB>copy /b *.LOG D:\TESTDB_BACKUP
REDO01.LOG
REDO02.LOG
REDO03.LOG
3 file(s) copied.
D:\oradata\BoschDB>copy /b *.CTL D:\TESTDB_BACKUP
CONTROL01.CTL
CONTROL02.CTL
CONTROL03.CTL
3 file(s) copied.
Step 3. Startup the database.
SQL> startup

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

How to use icons (database, database backup, save, delete etc.) in Oracle f

Hi Everyone,
I am using Oracle forms 5.
I want to use iconic buttons in Oracle forms 5 for database, database backup, save, delete etc.
Example:
Like Oracle Enterprise Manager, a GUI tool, we can see the different icons for different items (icon for database backup, database etc).
How should I get these icons? How should I attach these icons to the buttons/Image item in Oracle Forms ?
Should I give the file path of these icons in property palette of an item in Oracle forms?
If yes, then which property of item, will I use in order to attach the icons?
Please send the solution.
If some one can also send the related icons, I will thankful to him.
Regards
Martin

Hi FRANKS,
Thanks for your useful information.
WIth regards to attach icons to button/text item in Oracle forms,I am still facing problem.
As you said, I created the parameter/variable UI_ICONS in Forms Home and gave the value pointing to the directory holding the .ico files.
And then set the iconic property of the button and the icon's name without its extension.
But it didn't work.Could ypu please let me know what is going wrong?
I am thankful to you.

Full Database Backup in DB13 for MS SQL Server databases

Hello,
We have some SAP systems using the MS SQL Server database. I want to know if it is possible to setup the Full Database Backup option in transaction DB13 to store the files in a hard disk space.
I already did this type of configuration in SAP systems in Oracle databases and for this I used the init<SID>.sap where we can put all the configuration, for instance the disk path where we want to save the backup files! But for MS SQL Server databases, in DB13, I don´t know how to do that, when I add the "Full Database Backup" option in DB13, this show me some options but only for tape, but I don´t want to store the backup files in tapes, I want to store/save the files on the server disk itself or else to an external disk but I don´t see where I can set this way of storage!
This is what you see in DB13 (when using a MS SQL Server database) in "Full Database Backup" and as you see I only have options for TAPE not for a disk or other type of storage! How can I do that? (if that is possible):
Can you help me please?
Kind regards,
samid raif

Hello Raja
Sorry for the delay of my answer! Many thanks for that tip, it helps a lot and it solve the last error/problem that I reported here, in fact, the problem was we had named the device with two words containing a space. So we removed that space from the backup device (in SQL management studio) with one word only and the job runs successfully without any errors!
It works in Development and Quality systems but in our Production system (AM1) the Full backup option in DB13 stopped with the following error, in fact the error is on verification of backup, it means that the Full backup finished with success, but when it does the backup verification, the job in DB13 stops with an error, the following one:

What are the steps applying incremental backups to standby database 11g

Hi All,
I have built 11g none ASM standby database from ASM RAC Database. Now I want to apply incremental backup to the standby database from primary but not sure how to do it. I tried following and I had an error “ORA-01103: database name 'ins-prim' in control file is not 'ins-sec'”
1- I have configured standby database with RMAN backup.
2- After finishing installation, I took a incremental backup from primary server(ins-prim) and moved incremental backup and control file to the standby (ins-sec) database
3- I stared standby database nomount mode
4- restore controlfile from “incremental backup location in standby database”
5- alter database mount; and got this error
“ORA-01103: database name 'ins-prim' in control file is not 'ins-sec'”
What are the steps applying incremental backups to standby database with 11g?
Thank you

I build the database from backup and changed from ASM to none ASM and changed location of data files and logfiles. I think this changes makes the standby database as logical one.
You can a have a physical standby with different locations for everything (redo/controlfiles/datafiles), ASM and no ASM etc. I have a such a configuration in production (10gR2)
I build the database from backup
Are you sure you have a standby ? Ins-sec receives the archivelog files from the primary ? How did you proceed to build this database ? I suspect you don't have a standby at all ! If you have duplicated the database ins-sec and ins-pri are independent databases and you won't be able to apply an incremental backup (your script was not correct but it is another story)

Very first step in configuring RMAN for a Backup

DB version:10gR2
I am a DBA supporting applications development and i am not familiar with RMAN. This weekend we are going to Patch 10.2.0.1.0 to 10.2.0.3.0. Before that i am going to take a backup of the entire Database containing around 57 schemas(total of around 600gb).
We don't have Tape drives. I am going to backup this up on three filesystems in the same machine. This instance is not running on ASM. What is the first step i should be doing in configuring RMAN for a backup?
Edited by: user10583227 on Jan 27, 2009 4:50 AM

Be careful, three filesystems doesn't necessarily mean the use of three channels. Could be more...could be less.
Are you in a position to shutdown the database? If not, you'll also want to backup the archivelogs with BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG. You may also consider creating a Guaranteed Restore Point which would allow you to rollback your database in minutes if the upgrade fails.

Steps for cloning a RAC 10g database

I would like to clone our production RAC database into my development environment. Can anyone help me by providing the steps to follow? I could not find anything on Metalink. Thanks in advance for your help.

I did the same few days back you can get a lot of help from http://idevelopment.info/ go to RMAN 10g and then Duplicating a Database using RMAN - (UNIX / Linux)
however I would give some of the steps
1. Take a full database backup of your Database using RMAN and catalog database, make sure you include current controlfile.
2. Create a new pfile from the original database pfile or spfile as the case may be.
3. comment out all RAC specific parameters such taht you can use the new pfile to start the database in single instance mode.
4. create a new sid for the new database and start the database in nomount mode using the edited pfile.
5. now connect to RMAN using your present database as target the new database as auxiliary and catalog database.
6. execute the duplicate database command.
7. You may need to do dbfilename convert if your directory structure is not same as of the original database, this is true for ASM too.
8. After the RMAN session ends control file should have been restored at the specified location in the edited pfile.
===
in case OMF is being used
9. shutdown the database (it can be in shutdown mode already).
10. Check the name of the controlfile and provide the name in the pfile.
====
11. start the database in single instance mode it should start.
12. now shutdown the database and uncomment the RAC specifiv parametors, please chek entries of REMOTE LISTENER etc.
13. register the database and instances with the CRS using srvctl
14. start the database with srvctl

This confuses me, since all Backups are normally taken from the passive copy of a Database.
So my questions to the board are:
* Does anyone is facing similar issues?
* Can someone explain why snapshots are present on the Mailboxserver hosting the Active Database, whilst the errors are logged on the passive one?
-          * Does someone know the conditions, why shadows copies remain and
aren´t removed in a proper manner?
What can cause the circumstance, that only 1 DB is facing such issues?
Any suggestion is welcome!

Hi Lenora,
I´ve encreases VSS / Exchange Backup Log levels to expert, before starting
those things i´ve all tried now:
- Backup from passive DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from active DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from passive DB without GRT enabled (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from active DB without GRT enabled(forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
All those attempts failed.
But brought some more details - the backup against the active DB states, that there is still a backup in progress and therefore this backup is cancelled by VSS.
The Solution was, that i´ve needed to restart the Exchange Replication Service on the Mailbox Server hosting the passive DB.
Backups are working again on all DBs!
THX for your replys.
Best regards
Markus
