Use db control after rman duplication

One might wish to access Oracle Enterprise Mananger database
control after duplicating a database with
rman (e.g. with "DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO mydb FROM ACTIVE
DATABASE NOFILENAMECHECK"). Typically, we will find ourselves on
a new maching hosting the duplicate db.
Obviously the cloned repository of database control is still
configured for the source host, and, as per Doc ID 293678.1, if
the Hostname, Domainname, or Listener configuration changes after
an installation, DB Control needs to be reconfigured:
"<ORACLE_HOME>/bin/emca -config dbcontrol db -repos recreate"
Thus, all user-defined events and job definitions will be
lost. Are there any ways to avoid this?
Regards, Tom

Unfortunately there's no way to avoid recreation - maybe an enhancement request for the future:
After Creating A Database Using the Rman Duplicate Command There is no DBConsole [ID 308853.1]

    Hi Soumyadeep,
    Have you binded the "dataSource" property of the UI element properly to a binary attribute. Because this error says you have not binded some mandatory property in iView.
    So may be dataSource or some other property which is mandatory is not mapped.

  • Data Guard Summary problem using Grid Control.

    I setup data guard using Grid Control and after completion, the console of the standby database shows: "Unable to determine Data Guard information." under the Data Guard Summary section. The primary database is not showing the standby. I'm using Red Hat Linux Server 5.7 (64bit) and Oracle 10.2.0.5. This is a standalone (no RAC or ASM involved). When I run show configuration, the following comes up:

    I tried searching online and metalink but nothing. Any help in solving this problem would be appreciated. TIA

    Can you confirm that only archive sequence * 58673* is missing or any more? If you have less number of archives are missing then see how the parameters you configured. like FAL_SERVER, LOG_ARCHIVE_CONFIG, LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n so on.
    Check below command and see any errors with remote destinations
    select severity,error_code,to_char(timestamp,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') "timestamp" , message from v$dataguard_status where dest_id=2;Source: http://www.oracle-ckpt.com/dataguard_troubleshoot_snapper/
    If the archives are missing so many and you do not have backup, then certainly you have to choose incremental roll forward to synchronize the primary database, then only you can see the configuration status of Broker as valid. You can refer this article to perform incremental roll forward http://www.oracle-ckpt.com/rman-incremental-backups-to-roll-forward-a-physical-standby-database-2/

  • Recovery using backup control file

    Hello friends,
    I have a scenario where i am unable to recover by database by using backup control file option can u pls give ur expert advice.
    1) Database is working in ARCHIVE MODE.
    2) One of my file was READ ONLY when i take my closed backup. At this time
    v$log file output is :
    group# thread# sequence# bytes member arc status first_change#
    1 1 8 8192 2 yes inactive 4697463
    2 1 9 8192 2 yes active 4717493
    3 1 10 8192 2 no current 4717738
    3) After 2-3 log switches i have made it READ WRITE.
    4) After making it READ WRITE i have taken controlfile backup by using
    ALTER SYSTEM BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO 'E:\ORACLE\CONTROL01.CTL';.
    5) Again i have make some log switches.
    6) Shutdown my database using SHUTDOWN option.
    7) Copy my SYSTEM,UNDO,USER,INDEX datafiles from my backup (taken at
    step 2) and CONTROL file (taken at step 4).
    8) I have not copied my old redo log files so those are new.
    9) I mount database & then use this command to recover database :
    RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE AUTO;
    10) My recovery process starts applying archived log files and applied upto
    sequence no 9. When it starts applying last one 10 which is online redo log
    and not yet archived my recovery process fails by giving this error:
    ORA-00308: cannot open archived log 'd:\oracle\oradata\practice\archive\1_10.dbf'
    ORA-27041: unable to open file
    OSD-04002: unable to open file
    O/S-Error: (OS 2) The system cannot find the file specified.
    11) I try to open database using :
    ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
    it gives following warning:
    Error at line 1:
    ORA-01113: file 1 needs media recovery
    ORA-01110: datafile 1: 'D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\PRACTICE\SYSTEM01.DBF'
    Please guide me why it is so ?
    Whether in BACKUP CONTROL FILE CASES system didn't recognise ONLINE REDO LOG FILES or it is anything else.
    Regards
    Sethi

    Hi,
    >>I am not using RMAN. I am taking user managed backups. Moreover i have tried what u said that make checkpoints also but again i came to the same result when it try to apply last archived log which was current redo log when database was started to shutdown it says unable to find the specified file & then when i open database using resetlogs it says system file needs media recovery.
    it show error because you are using wrong approach of Recovery.
    Alter database open Resetlog command is used only in incomplete recovery.
    but your are giving
    Recover database command,it means ur performing full recovery (means you have apply online redo logfile.) and after applying it you should open the database with Alter database Open command.
    No need to give resetlog option.
    Again Restore all backup;
    Issue Recover database;
    and open the database with
    Alter database open;
    Thanks

  • Visual Studio 2013 slows down + crashes when using Source Control features.

    I have spent two full days trying to resolve this issue but no luck so here we go,
    I have created a project using Visual Studio Team Foundation Server plug-in in the past. Later on I switched to
    Microsoft Git Provider.
    Now when I connect to that project in the Team Explorer and double click on the solution to work on it locally it somehow changes the plug in to Microsoft Git Provider automatically and of course I can't
    Commit/Commit and Push since I receive following error in the Team Explorer,
    An error occurred. Detailed message: Failed to open directory 'C:/Users/.../AppData/Local/Application Data/'
    Manually changing the plug-in to the Visual Studio Team Foundation Server
    results in a broken Team Explorer as below,
    With Settings leading to an empty pane, and also a warning in the Team Explorer's Changes page telling me the message below if I click on Pending Changes...
    Microsoft Git Provider is not the current Source Control plug-in. Change Plug-in
    And manually selecting the solution from Solution Explorer, right click and
    Add Solution to Source Control, leads to never ending hour glass and (Not responding) visual studio.
    New Projects
    Creating a new project is straight forward, unless I "Add to Source Control" is checked. If so, again never ending process if Microsoft TFS plug-in is selected in the tools and eventually me Ending the Visual Studio task. And a VERY long process
    (40+ mins) if I have chosen Microsoft Git but that finishes successfully rather.
    New TFS project from Team Explorer
    If I create a new project in my Online Web Studio
    Click on Open with Visual Studio Link => Opens and connects to a my newly created TFS in team explorer.
    Clicking new in Team Explorer under Solutions to create a new solution and bind it to this Repo
    leads to straight crash of Visual Studio and restarting attempt of VS.
    So I really can't use Source Control from visual studio other than cloning GitHub's existing repo's on Visual Studio and Committing my current Microsoft Git managed projects.
    I have attempted
    Repairing Visual Studio (no luck in results)
    Devenv.exe /setup (no luck)
    Trying to scrap the SCC info on my solution then at least it won't get picked up by source control then I can Check it in as a new project. (no luck and the solution picks the Microsoft Git upon opening it by clicking on the .sln file.) I have followed
    these steps in this stack overflow answer.
    And lots of mucking around like removing my workspaces almost Thousand times and putting them back, binding and etc.
    I am really stuck on this and it's holding me back from staring a new project (which is problematic using Adding to Source Control) and unfortunately is dependent on the old project (which is developed under Visual Studio Team Foundation Server Plug-in which
    is throwing tantrums)
    Would like to hear you pro-s input on this

    Hi Mehradzie,
    Based on the description, seems you're working with Git team project in Visual Studio Online(formerly Team Foundation Service). I'd like to know whether you mean Visual Studio Git command tool as the plug-in, and if you're trying to create solutions/projects
    with Visual Studio and add them to the created Git team project.
    From the screenshot, you're not connect to the Git team project by using Team Explorer. To work with Git team project locally, you can follow the instructions as below:
    Connect to Git team project by using Team Explorer, after that you might install Git tools if you connect to the team project for the first time
    Clone the remote Git repository to a local git repository and set the path to local git repository
    Create a solution and select Git source control, also saved to the local path of the local git repository
    Select your branch, and then click "Changes" and Commit the changes
    Click "unsynced commits" and push the commit to remote git repository
    You can also refer to the links below for more information about getting started with Git in Visual Studio Online.

  • Robo HTML 9 will not open our project from Source Control after initial start.

    We have a project in version control that we have been using forever, since 2003 or so and many versions of RH.  Now that we have upgraded to 9, this project will open the first time in version control and work normally.  Once you close the project and attempt to reopen from the starter screen, it opens just great, just not in version control.  The files are still set to read only.  I have done this several times and the only way i can work on my project in version control is to act like i am opening a project from scratch, then it needs to overwrite all of my local files with the server files.  It would not be so bad but I am 3000 miles away from the server and 13 hops plus a slow firewall on the other end.  While this has never been a problem in the past it is a big problem because it takes hours for all the files to download and overwrite my local files.
    This only happens with RH9 and Version Control 3.1.  RH8 works no problem.  So, I don't know if this is a RH9 starter problem or a Source Control Problem.  Maybe I will make a similar thread in the RH area.  I'll wait to see if I get any useful hits from this one first.
    It is very strange, I had RH9 open for several days because I was afraid to close the project for this reason and yesterday I published for the month so the heat is less right now but today, it opened with no source control.  If I go to Source Control the only thing i can select is put project in source control.  That is how it got into source control after converting to RH9.
    We have another project that seems to open from version control normally but we can only save topics in HTML view.  No useful answers to that topic after a week.
    Got any ideas???
    I have tried different folder names, different paths, etc.
    Thanks,
    dv

    Ok, here is a wierd one, I used the add to version control icon in the menu bar, It already knew the path so I figured I'm the only one who has been editing these files for the past few days so I clicked add to version control.  It added it. I closed and reopeded and still had the same files checked out.  Closed, checked in all, then reopened and it is working in SourceControl.  Strange that after opening from source control and closing that you need to reopen and tell it to put the project into source control.  Obviously some flag is not getting set somewhere.  This might help others having problems reopening source control files.

  • Indesign cs6 menu and tool bar disappear between windows using mission control in mountain lion

    heres 2  screen grabs before and after. while navigating between 'spaces' using mission control in mountain lion. issue -  the menu and tools bars disappear - not all of them just parts of them. to get back i hit 'tab' button twice which hides and shows tools. very annoying - does anyone know of a fix or is this another bug which i have to live with. im using a macpro june 2012/running 10.8.4 and 2 screens - left for artboard - right for all tool windows.

    thanks steve - yes that works as does using the tab key - all well....until i move to another 'space' and then come back again.
    for example: my setup is like this - no2 space has indesign project. no3 space has photoshop. so im working on a page within indesign and i need to edit an image- i double click the pic and it opens in photoshop on the other 'space' save the file and go back to indesign to update pic and find menu/tools all over the place - so hit tab twice back to normal -  until i 'move' out of that space into another - photoshop/ mail/ whatever - as i toggle between spaces the indesign menu will always be 'corrupt' for a better word. hope that makes sense.

    4. I Copy archived log files generated at the step 5 in the local directory in the second computer
    5. I set the logsource and set the autorecovery to on
    6. I recover the database: RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROL FILE UNTIL CANCEL
    Error got:

  • Problem in using database control in JPD.

    Hi All,
    I am developing a JPD which also involves using DB control. The connected DB is Oracle 9.2.
    I have created DB control with "insert" method and one with "update" method.
    When i call "insert" method in JPD by dynamically passing values, it works fine. I have a "task control" in a JPD and once the task is complted by a specific user, again I am calling "update" method.
    Here it fails to update the DB. The strange part is that the perform node executes after the control send node and there are no exceptions. Heres my update method
    * @jc:sql command-type="update" statement::
    * UPDATE PROPOSAL_INFO SET status = {status} WHERE track_num = {trackingNumber}
    * @common:message-buffer enable="false"
    void updateStatusAndDesc(String status,String trackingNumber);
    The strange part is that, If I hard code the "status" and "trackingNumber" value instead of passing dynalically by using (ie without using {}), then update happens.
    Can somebody suggest me the solution for this problem??
    Thanks in advance,
    Prashanth Bhat.

    See http://e-docs.bea.com/workshop/docs81/doc/en/workshop/guide/controls/database/conMappingDBFieldsToJavaTypesInTheDBCtrl.html for more info
    b.) command-type is only used for rowset controls.

  • HT4689 do i have to use mission control or can i set it to another method ?

    I don't have a sensor mouse, i am using an old mouse and don't really feel like buying a whole new mouse.  Do I have to use mission control or can I get an app to customize the computer to my personal style?

    Mission Control is just one way someone can navigate their mac.
    I personally never use it.
    There are plenty of application for using your mac, but there are a lot of built in shortcuts you can make for it too.
    If you did, sort of want to use mission control, but don't have a touch sensitive device to bring it up, you can do a couple of things that the mac already is capable of doing without having to purchase anything new or download a third party app.
    1. Hot Corners.
    Hot corners are a way to access some of the most important tasks for your computer. you can set hot corners in System Preferences>Mission Control then click "Hot Corners" button on the bottom left of the window and the settings will slide down and look like this. Choose the pulldown menu for whichever corner you want mission control to be in and then move your mouse cursor to that corner. As you can see there are other options for hot corners to help you better control and customize your machine.
    2. Spotlight.
    spotlight is a powerful tool and is often times overlooked by novices.
    hit cmd and space bar at the same time (cmd+spacebar) and up pops a search box in the upper right corner of your screen. start typing an application or a file you want to be opened. spotlight automagically begins guessing what you're searcing for.
    I use spotlight a lot and it keeps my desktop very clean of anything that I'm not working on or with.
    if the first selection in the list is what you wanted you can hit enter. Sometimes all I need to do is type in a few letters and then "enter" and the application is loading up in no time. It also bring open apps to the front.
    3. Keyboard Shortcuts
    there is a way to make your keyboard's Function keys act as "hotspots" as well.
    go to system preferences>keyboard and you can set your own keyboard shortcuts or see the ones that are preset in OSX. These are here to help you navigate your mac faster.
    Another keyboard shortcut I like is cmd+tab. if you hold down the command key, and you tap on the Tab key, a thing called "Application Switcher" appears. This lets you see what is open and also lets you select which one you want to come to the forefront. you can continue to hold the command key down after hitting tab to use your cursor to select the application or continually hit tab with the command key down until it is highlighting the app you want.
    Not completely sure what you wanted or didn't want mission control for or what alternatives you wanted to know but here are a few that will make your workflow fast and you, one step closer to being a power user.

  • Rman duplication of database to the same server and same disk group

    Hi,
    We have multiple databases - rmsprd1 and oidprd1 on asm disk groups - ASMDG_DAT01 and ASMDG_FRA01 on a server.
    Both these databases are single instance asm based databases.
    I am trying to do a rman duplication from rmsprd1 to rmsprd2 in the same server. I intend to use the same asm disk groups - ASMDG_DAT01 and ASMDG_FRA01.
    Is this possible ?
    Currently I have the following structure
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD1/DATAFILE
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD1/CHANGETRACKING/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD1/CONTROLFILE/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD1/DATAFILE/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD1/ONLINELOG/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD1/PARAMETERFILE/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD1/TEMPFILE/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD1/AUTOBACKUP/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD1/BACKUPSET/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD1/CONTROLFILE/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD1/DATAFILE/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD1/ONLINELOG/
    Will I be able to create something like
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD2/DATAFILE
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD2/CHANGETRACKING/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD2/CONTROLFILE/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD2/DATAFILE/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD2/ONLINELOG/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD2/PARAMETERFILE/
    +ASMDG_DAT01/RMSPRD2/TEMPFILE/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD2/AUTOBACKUP/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD2/BACKUPSET/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD2/CONTROLFILE/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD2/DATAFILE/
    +ASMDG_FRA01/RMSPRD2/ONLINELOG/
    I know that I can create a different asm disk group for the rman duplication but this is proving to be a hassle.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I have found the answer working with Oracle via a service request. Admittedly there was no direct oracle documentation for doing this and hence documenting the steps here.
    No legalities, formalities involved please.
    Here are the steps - rmsprd1 is the source, rmsprd2 is the target, +ASM is the asm instance supporting both rmsprd1 and rmsprd2. The intention is to put both the source and destination in the same server. The backupset backup in location /dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh will be used for the duplication.
    1) Take rman backupset backup of the source database - rmsprd1
    rman_take_backup.ksh ( Take backup of source - rmsprd1 using rman ). The contents of the rman_take_backup.sh script are given below :
    rm /dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/*
    export NLS_DATE_FORMAT='YYYY-MM-DD:HH24:MI:SS'
    rman target / <<EOF
    run
    allocate channel d1 device type disk format '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/%U';
    allocate channel d2 device type disk format '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/%U';
    allocate channel d3 device type disk format '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/%U';
    allocate channel d4 device type disk format '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/%U';
    allocate channel d5 device type disk format '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/%U';
    allocate channel d6 device type disk format '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/%U';
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh/%F';
    backup as backupset database plus archivelog tag 'clonebackupset';
    EOF
    2) Make the directories for destination database ( rmsprd2 )
    /opt/oracle/admin> mkdir -p rmsprd2/adump rmsprd2/dpdump rmsprd2/pfile rmsprd2/scripts
    3) Create pfile from rmsprd1 spfile. copy/rename the pfile to make a pfile for rmsprd2.
    4) Edit listener.ora in ASM ORACLE_HOME and edit tnsnames.ora in DB ORACLE_HOME
    listener.ora
    LISTENER_RMSPRD2 =
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1522))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = kirkjerpdb01.kirklands.com)(PORT = 1522))
    SID_LIST_LISTENER_RMSPRD2 =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    ( ORACLE_HOME = /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1 )
    ( SID_NAME = rmsprd2 )
    ADR_BASE_LISTENER_RMSPRD2 = /opt/oracle
    ENABLE_GLOBAL_DYNAMIC_ENDPOINT_LISTENER_RMSPRD2=ON # Section added by Sandeep
    SUBSCRIBE_FOR_NODE_DOWN_EVENT_LISTENER_RMSPRD2=OFF
    ADMIN_RESTRICTIONS_LISTENER_RMSPRD2=ON
    tnsnames.ora ( http://francispaulraj.wordpress.com/ora-12528-tnslistener-all-appropriate-instances-are-blocking-new-connections/ )
    RMSPRD2 =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = kirkjerpdb01.kirklands.com)(PORT = 1522))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = rmsprd2)
    (UR = A)
    5) Build a passwordfile ( I just copied and renamed it )
    6) Edit /etc/oratab to add database entry for rmsprd2
    7) Set the environment for rmsprd2
    . oraenv
    rmsprd2
    8) Startup nomount of rmsprd2
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    startup nomount pfile=/opt/oracle/admin/rmsprd2/pfile/initrmsprd2.ora
    9) Create spfile from pfile='/opt/oracle/admin/rmsprd2/pfile/initrmsprd2.ora';
    10) shutdown and startup rmsprd2 with spfile
    SQL> shutdown abort;
    ORACLE instance shut down.
    SQL> startup nomount;
    ORACLE instance started.

    Variable Size 788531456 bytes
    Database Buffers 268435456 bytes
    Redo Buffers 9756672 bytes
    11) We are now ready for duplication from rmsprd1 ( source ) to rmsprd2 ( destination ) both using +ASM standalone asm instance. set the environment to rmsprd1and fire away.
    Please note that the duplicate script is only connecting to auxilary database ( rmsprd2 ) and using the backup location for the duplication.
    I used a unix shell script -rman_duplicate_from_backup.ksh. The contents are given below :
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman auxiliary sys/prd123@rmsprd2 log=rman_duplicate_from_backup.log << EOF
    run
    allocate auxiliary channel d1 device type disk;
    allocate auxiliary channel d2 device type disk;
    allocate auxiliary channel d3 device type disk;
    allocate auxiliary channel d4 device type disk;
    allocate auxiliary channel d5 device type disk;
    allocate auxiliary channel d6 device type disk;
    DUPLICATE DATABASE TO rmsprd2
    BACKUP LOCATION '/dbaadm/sandeep_rman_refresh';
    EOF
    12) Voila - the rmsprd1 to rmsprd2 is done.....
    Hope this helps somebody else wanting to do the same excercize. Have Fun.....
    regards
    Sandeep
