Using RMAN restore the database on a new host in ASM

Hello All,
I am trying to restore a database without using RMAN database duplicate. I want to do set new name for datafile and rename log file for online logs and change database name at last using NID.
here are details
source database - APSPROD / server - X
target database - EMERALD / Server -Y
Compressed backup is copied to destination server and I am trying to restore database using RMAN. Here is my init.ora file
cat initAPSPROD1.ora
DB_NAME=APSPROD
compatible=11.2.0.3
sga_target=8G
CONTROL_FILES='+DATA_DM01/EMERALD/controlfile/cntrl01.dbf','+RECO_DM01/EMERALD/controlfile/cntrl02.dbf','+DATA_DM01/EMERALD/controlfile/cntrl03.dbf'
DB_BLOCK_SIZE=8192
db_file_name_convert=(+DATA_DM01/APSPROD,+DATA_DM01/EMERALD)
log_file_name_convert=(+DATA_DM01/APSPROD,+DATA_DM01/EMERALD,+RECO_DM01/APSPROD,+RECO_DM01/EMERALD)
DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST='+RECO_DM01'
DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE=5500G
So from above you can see that control file should be restored to +DATA_DM01/EMERALD and +RECO_DM01/EMERALD path.
Question -
when I am trying to restore control file. It creates an ASM alias name in +DATA_DM01/EMERALD/controlfile/cntrl01.dbf',+RECO_DM01/EMERALD/controlfile/cntrl02.dbf',' and +DATA_DM01/EMERALD/controlfile/cntrl03.dbf' but It creates fully Qualified ASM Filename under +DATA_DM01/APSPROD and +RECO_DM01/
Here is output
RMAN> restore controlfile from '/dbfs_direct/FS1/RMAN_APSPROD/cf_APSPROD_i4p4b62m_1_1

Can I restore the database (clone) to different Host/User account?

Hi,
We use RMAN catalog that backup our production database using "oracle" user (OS user is "oracle") account. We wanted to clone this database to different host and to different OS user (for example is "oradev") account. Both user has same group (oradba). Can I able to restore the control fies/data files to different user account (the account that wasn't backed up).
Please update if you know of any documents/pdfs/links that explains this detail.
Thanks in advance for your assistance,
Ranga.

Yes, the user account should be transparent assuming the backuppieces have the appropriate user/group permissions.

I'm waiting for my new iPhone 5s to be delivered. I lost my iPhone 5 but did have it backed up on my MacBook Pro. I was using iOS6 at the time. Will I have a problem restoring the data to my new iPhone 5s assuming it will come with iOS7?

No, you should not. There are problems trying to go the other way, but updating a newer iOS release from a backup of an older iOS release has always been supported and is the basic means of setting up a new device from a previous one.

I backed up my 3GS using iTunes. I then restored the file to my new 4GS. Then I synced the apps onto the 4GS. Then I downloaded 2 custom ringtones, and attempted to sync them onto the 4GS, but it says "This Library is already synced with another phone, and if you try to sync, you will lose all of the information on the iPhone." I am a Windows user. This Sync process is VERY confusing.

How can I possibly get these two new ringtones onto the iPhone without wiping out everything else on the phone? This Sync process is nuts.
I have Backed Up the phone twice. Why would iTunes try to wipe out the phone?

Hi Mike
Try this
Close Outlook
Locate Outlook.exe on the file system
Right-Click on Outlook.exe and select RunAs and Start Outlook as the Machine Administrator
Then, try restoring the BCM Database

Restore a database in a new instance with different name

Hello, I need restore a database in a different server. I have a backup of 01-Jan-2008 on tape on DataProtector and I need to restore in another server in order to extract some information for a datawarehouse, I need restore with a name different because on that server we have a standby database. The both servers are HP ia64 and have Unix. I have installed Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 EE. I read the Oracle RMAN Advanced but the process is for duplicate the database, I need restore a backup from 01-Jan-2008. Can you help me please. What steps should I run. Thanks for your answer.
Ruben Nieto

Hi Ruben Nieto,
Can you check on the target if the backup pieces are still registered in the controlfile?
< connect target /; >
< list backup completed before 'to_date('2009-01-02:00:00:00','YYYY-MM-DD:HH24:MI:SS')'; >
If no information is available:
1) "I can't use the same name for the database." -> excludes a restore/recover on the standby server.
2) "how can I restore the database whitout catalog in other server" -> excludes a duplication to new name.
If you want to keep it simple find a third HP ia64 machine where you can mirror your production environment and restore the complete backup set and recover the database keeping the name of the target.

Tycho

Problem in Restoring the database

Hi,
I want to restore the database
RMAN> startup force mount;
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of startup command at 07/20/2009 17:06:56
RMAN-04014: startup failed: ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of s
ervice requested in connect descriptor
can anybody help on this.

Hi,
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
Cause: The listener received a request to establish a connection to a database or other service. The connect descriptor received by the listener specified a service name for a service (usually a database service) that either has not yet dynamically registered with the listener or has not been statically configured for the listener. This may be a temporary condition such as after the listener has started, but before the database instance has registered with the listener.
Action:
- Wait a moment and try to connect a second time.
- Check which services are currently known by the listener by executing: lsnrctl services <listener name>
- Check that the SERVICE_NAME parameter in the connect descriptor of the net service name used specifies a service known by the listener.
- If an easy connect naming connect identifier was used, check that the service name specified is a service known by the listener.
- Check for an event in the listener.log file.

Restoring the database from Coldbackup

Hi Gurus,
I have a cold back up files belongs to oracle 9i on Solaris 5.10. I wanted to restore the database and need to upgrade the Oracle 10g (10.2.0.3.0) on linux.
All these process need to handle with out RMAN. What are the prerequisite information need to collect on source and target systems.
Please guide me.
Thanks,
Tippu

Azar wrote:
Better install Oracle 10g on the new server and after import oracle 9i database into new server database.I would say that this depends on database size and database downtime that can be accepted: for small database and no short downtime constraint, I agree but for large database and limited downtime constraint this may not be a good choice.

Restore the database or tablespace from a old backup piece

Hi All,
We have the senerio like this.
Day 1 : Took the complete database backup in RMAN
Few changes done in database
Day 2 : Took the complete database backup in RMAN
Few changes done in database
At day 3 if we wanto restore the database to Day 2 backup we can simply use restore database and recover database.
Supose if we wan to restore the day 1 backup, please let me know if this will work.
run
set until time "to_date('10-06-2009 08:00:00','DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";
restore database;
recover database;
Or is there any other way to do that.
Please advice,
Thanks & Regards,
Rakesh

It will work if you are running in archive mode and you have day 1 backup files available for RMAN.
I recommend saving the current control file and restoring the original day 1 control file before you issue the resote / recover command.

I have my iPhone 4s backed up on my mac but it seems it was encrypted with a password which i do not remember is there any other option to retrieve to the backup without restoring the device as a new one. Also I do not have access to a windows system.

Sorry no, if you don't knnow the encrypted password, then you can't use that backjup.

I have been restoring the backup into a new iphone for a week. My pictures do not get restored however. Is there anything I can do?

Not unless the phone was backed up to the icloud or in iTunes at some point. I know you said it's crushed but can it be connected to a computer? If so you can still back it up in iTunes and then when the new phone comes use iTunes to restore that back up on it.

RESTORING THE DATABASE AFTER BEING EDITED OR DELETED

How to restore the database after being edited? I m using sql server 2008 R2, I've done backup with some foolish knowledge and many tables have disappeared from the database. I want to get them back. Please help me.

Do you have backup which includes data which has been edited/removed by you .If so below query might help.
use master
go
alter database db_name set single_user with rollback immediate
go
restore database db_name from disk='locaion of backup'
with replace,recovery
If you have transaction lgo backups as well please dont use above method.In such case you will need to first restore full backup with no recovery like below and then apply all transaction logs with no recovery
but the last transaction log with recovery( last trn log just before you edited)
use master
go
alter database db_name set single_user with rollback immediate
go
restore database db_name from disk='locaion of backup'
with replace,norecovery
Hope this helps

All you can do is get a newer model iPod. The 2G can only go as high as 4.2.1. Its hardare does not support a higher iOS version
