Using Backup at Primrary to Create Standby

I have a backup(image copy) of the primrary database that is a day behind - Take a full image copy on Day 1 and merge with the daily incremental backup (using the block change tracking). In the primary database I have a few partitioned tables - partitioned by date. Every day the partitions which are more than a week old are marked as READ ONLY.
I would like to clone the standby database using this backup - copy only the R/W tablespaces (i.e. not copy the READ only partitions) , restore the standby and start the replication. The copy and restore of the READ only partitions is deferred till the replication is started - to minimize the loss.
Are there any potential problems with this approach. If the steps are available I will really appreciate that.

  • Add temporary datafiles after creating standby database

    I used data guard manager to create standby database and it went fine. Before finish, system pop up a window and says,
    "The data guard configuration has been created in a disabled state. It must be enabled using the Enable option in the configuration menu. Pior to ebaling the configuration, please verify the following:
    The Primary database contains temporary datafiles. The files will not be duplicated in the new standby database. You must manually recreate the temporary files on the standby node by adding them to their respective tablespaces in the standby database after creation process in complete."
    The problem is, in the standby database, how do I add tempfile without open the standby database? the documentation is very unclear...

    Thanks for the reply and the useful link. I had followed the instructions when creating the standby database, although under database options there is a difference between the OEM version we are using and the version shown, whereby the 'RMAN backup location' option has been replaced with 'working directory location'.
    Just found the following and am guessing this is the issue.
    NFS mounts established within a zone are local to that zone. The mounts cannot be accessed from other zones, including the global zone.
    I suspect I will need to copy the backup pieces onto the local server in order to create the standby database using OEM. Not something I was expecting to have to do as copying will take a long time due to the size of the backup, but unless anyone else can shed any light on the reason for the initial error
    RMAN Backup Location - The specified RMAN backup is invalid. Could not identify controlfile from the backup
    then I guess this is the only way forward.

  • Create standby database using restore backup

    Hi,
    I am creating a standby database 11g using  manual process of restoring a backup , but to no avail. I can not even restore the backup successfully.
    This is the steps I followed (courtesy of ORACLE-BASE) ORACLE-BASE - Data Guard Physical Standby Setup in Oracle Database 11g Release 2
    I am confused about these steps:
    Copy the files from the primary to the standby server.
    Copy Standby controlfile to all locations.
    $ scp oracle@ol5-112-dga1:/tmp/db11g_stby.ctl /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl
    $ cp /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl
    My question is, for the 2nd copy, do I need to shutdown the primary db? since control01.ctl is being updated all the time?
    Can I not used the standby ctl (db11g_stbg.ctl) and copy it to /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl instead?
    Your assistance is highly appreciated.

    Hi,
    You are created standby  control file on primary and copied to standby  side:
    $ scp oracle@ol5-112-dga1:/tmp/db11g_stby.ctl /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl
    And now, in paramter files, you have CONTROL_FILES parameter as below :
    control_files='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl', '/u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl'
    it means you must copy controlfile IN standby side to second control file. Control  files must be same.
    $ cp /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl
    My question is, for the 2nd copy, do I need to shutdown the primary db? since control01.ctl is being updated all the time?
    You not need shutdown priamry database, becuase you  copied standby control file to standby side, and all operations goin in standby side.
    Can I not used the standby ctl (db11g_stbg.ctl) and copy it to /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl instead?
    Yes, you can use (db11g_stbg.ctl)  standby controlfile

  • Create standby using incremental backup

    can I create standby database using a backup of primary which was created using below command? ( incremental backup level 0)

    Hello;
    Probably not. The backup command is missing this key piece :
    backup current controlfile for standby format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/sb_t%t_s%s_p%p';Since you are using 11R2 you can use "Create a Standby database from an active database using RMAN"
    Example :

    Or

  • Create a new Standby db from a backup taken in an existing standby.

    Existing 2 sites: PROD (primary)), Local-standby.
    Planning to add a 3rd site: Remote-standby
    How do you use a full backup taken in the Local-standby (not the primary) to create the Remote-standby?
    Any pointers will be appreciated...essentially creating a standby from a standby.
    It may be of interest to note that running the "BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY" in the Local-standby will error out with:
    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

    Thanks

    For folks who may stumble on this thread.
    2 hosts - 1 - primary, 2 - local stby
    3rd host was being added in the mix.
    So, we want to build standby number 3 - DR stby
    Aim was to create the DR stby from a backup taken from local stby, W/O affecting primary.
    Create backup pieces from local stby (to be made available in DR stby) using "backup device type disk format '/u01/backups' database plus archivelog;"
    As mseberg pointed out, take a "backup current controlfile for standby" from primary & make it available in DR stby
    startup nomount the DR stby
    restore controlfile in DR from step2
    catalog the backup taken in step 1
    Run the duplicate command from DR as usual, connecting to the primary as target and the DR as auxiliary
    Enjoy

  • How to create standby controlfile from restored backup

    Hi Techies,
    I am re-building one of my DR server, Source and target DB is oracle 10g.
    I have taken the source backup which is going to be restored on target, But I forgot to take a standby controlfile from source DB at the time (Pre/Post) backup.
    Now the issue is I can create a standby controlfile on primary and copy the same to target, But so many datafiles are added after the backup which I have taken to restore and medias are already shipped.
    I can send the other set of backup to DR site, but it takes a week time and I don't want to do that If I can regenerate it.
    So any clue to create standby controlfile on target with restored datafiles?
    Regards,
    Nick Loy

    Hmm... sounds like you perform this in a rather manual fashion...
    Do you use RMAN for taking the backups?
    Or maybe the BR*TOOLS?
    With these tools you are usually safe from such mistakes - I can only recommend to use them!
    However, since you don't have a control file at all on the target side, the only thing left to do would be to
    ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE NORESETLOGS;
    on the primary side and manually remove the files that have been added since you took the backup from the control file script,
    Afterwards you use the script on the standby side to create the control files.
    regards,
    Lars

  • Creating standby database using RMAN

    When I'm creating standby database with RMAN command
    'duplicate for standby' backups for creating standby database
    have to be accessible from host where standby database
    is created. I can copy the backups to standby host, or use
    NFS to share the disk with backups to standby host.
    But when I have backups in ASM diskgroup how can
    I achieve it would be accessible from standby host?
    Thanks a lot for advice,

    OK, thanks,
    I will create standby using Grid, but I have the following problem:
    database instance is running on the host where I want
    to create standby database. The running instance is for
    testing purposes and has the same db_name, db_unique_name, db_domain
    parameters as in primary database.
    I will change db_unique_name to be distinct from primary database one,
    should I also change instance SID not to be the same in
    testing database and standby on the same host, or when creating standby
    database I can specify distinct one for standby database?

  • I am trying to restore files created using Backup in Tiger.  How do I do this on a Snow Leopard machine which is connected to the Tiger external drive?

    I have an external disk that was used on Tiger iMac. I used Backup to save files. Now that I have this external drive connected to a new IMac running SnowLeopard, how do I restore files?

    Backup 3.2 is still usable if you have a MM account and can download the upgrade.  Otherwise you'll need to restore them via Tiger.
    If the backup is not archived, then the individual files may be accessible directly.

    Hello;
    Generally for the connection to work you need to add something like this to the listener.ora file :
    (SID_DESC =
        (global_dbname = STANDBY.hostname)
        (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2)
        (sid_name = STANDBY)
    )You should stop and start the listener on the Standby after adding this. Also your tnsnames.ora must be correct on both the primary and the Standby.
    Also you need an INIT for the Standby side :

  • Creating Standby Database from ASM Databse none ASM

    I have ASM RAC database running on Solaris 10. I want to take a backup with RMAN and move the Backup to none ASM on other Stand alone server. I want to use this none ASM backup database to create Standby Database for Test purpose. Is it doable? If it is doable can you answer following questions?
    What command should I use with RMAN to take a full backup and move it to none ASM platform?
    Thank you

    Well, the answer is most likely yes, but first need to confirm
    - Do you want a physical or logical standby?
    - Will the standby run on the same platform , i.e. also Solaris 10?
    - What version of database ? It is much easier in 11g.

    Here is what I did:
    1.   started the listener and created corresponding tnsnames entry at remote standyb server 
    2.  startup nomount to the standby database at remote server for an empty instance (instance name dxp1p).
    3.  All rman backups are in the /backup mount point at primary and the mount point is shared on the remote server as nfs.   So, whatever have in the backup we should be able to see and read from the remote as well.
    4.  Run the following at primary rman:
    sql 'alter system archive log current';
    backup current controlfile for standby;
    sql 'alter system archive log current';
    crosscheck backup;
    crosscheck archivelog all;
    exit
    5.   Start the rman  command from primary after connected to the standby server, as the primary DB uses ASM and the standby DB uses file system for the database files:

    SVR4 Error: 5: I/O error
    Additional information: 349248
    The scripts are ok becouse they work earlier.
    The main database was a standby but now is primary.
    I create new standby base on remote server
    I have in bdump strange error for me until create rman copy for standby:
    Clearing standby activation ID 1004670785 (0x3be20f41)
    The primary database controlfile was created using the
    'MAXLOGFILES 5' clause.
    The resulting standby controlfile will not have enough
    available logfile entries to support an adequate number
    of standby redo logfiles. Consider re-creating the
    primary controlfile using 'MAXLOGFILES 8' (or larger).
    Use the following SQL commands on the standby database to create
    standby redo logfiles that match the primary database:
    ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE 'srl1.f' SIZE 409600000;
    ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE 'srl2.f' SIZE 409600000;
    ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE 'srl3.f' SIZE 409600000;
    ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE 'srl4.f' SIZE 409600000;
    Any suggestions?
    Sorry for my english :)

    can you use like this

    duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck;
