DR Scenario – Full
DB restore from TAPE
Scenario
Overview:
Server crashed and is in unusable state
i.e. you cannot use the SAME server to restore the DB.
Lost all files including SPFILE,
controlfile, archivelog and database files
Given:
Unix Team gave you a new server and
storage.( OS mount point names are different)
Netbackup client software installed and
libraries linked with oracle.
To verify check if libobk file exist in
the Netbackup install directory
oracle@[labrman01]-> ls -lrt
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/libobk*
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/libobk*: No such
file or directory
Goal:
Restore the database including SPFILE,
Controlfile from TAPE.
Must
Have:
DBID of the crashed database (without
DBID we cannot restore the database from TAPE in DR situation)
And the client name “NB_ORA_CLIENT” (client
name with which backup has been taken)
1) Now set
the environment on the new server- we will call the new server as LAB-
labrman01.
labrman01 /export/home/oracle>
>export
ORACLE_HOME=/adm02/u0001/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
>export PATH=$PATH:/adm02/u0001/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin
>export NLS_DATE_FORMAT='MM/DD/YYYY
HH24:MI:SS'
>export ORACLE_SID=HYPP
2) Invoke
RMAN
We are going to do the restore of
SID=HYPP. Since we lost the whole server and restoring onto a new server our first
goal is to restore the SPFILE and Controlfile.
labrman01 /export/home/oracle

3) Now
connect to target
RMAN> connect target /
connected
to target database: (not mounted)
RMAN>
set dbid=2563884143
executing command: SET DBID
4) Since we
don’t have the PFILE/SPFILE we are going to start the database without a PFILE
In nomount

5) what if I don’t know the backup piece
name for spfile? how do I get them from TAPE?
We
have to use”restore from autobackup” in this case.

RMAN-06172: no autobackup found or specified handle is not a valid copy or
piece
If we use restore from autobackup, By default RMAN will look for the file for the past 7
days starting from the current day, assuming the current day is 07/06 so RMAN
did go back until 06/30 and errored
out saying it couldn’t able to
find the SPFILE in the past 7 days.
“here we are trying to restore the backup which is
older than 7 days i.e we took the backup on 06/21 to TAPE and we need to
restore this backup”
6) So how do I get over the 7 day restriction ?
By default SPFILE will be restored onto
$ORACLE_HOME/dbs if you want to restore it to specific location use “TO PFILE
” see below:

Here RMAN found the SPFILE but unable to
read or restore the file due to some Netbackup glitches and we raised this
issue with Netbackup Team and were resolved from the Netbackup side.( Don’t ask
me what they did since it was never revealed what has been done to fix the
issue)
7) We
restarted the restore after Netbackup team fixed the above issue.

Now edit the parameter file to reflect the new
directory locations
i.e
since the HYPP is going to be restored onto a LAB server, change
udump,bdump,cdump,controlfile and archive dest locations as per the mount point
directory locations on the LAB server
>vi initHYPP.ora
*.aq_tm_processes=0
*.audit_trail='DB'
*.background_dump_dest='/adm02/u0001/oracle/admin/HYPP/bdump'
*.compatible='10.2.0.3'
*.control_files='/adm02/u0001/HYPP/control/control01.ctl'
9) Now shutdown
and start the database in nomount to make sure no errors in restored PFILE:
labrman01(HYPP) /export/home/oracle
>sqlplus

15) This
applies only if the logfiles are missing or logfile location is different or
you want to put them in a new mount point after the restore
Before we open the database in resetlogs
we need to make sure the logfiles locations are changed properly
SQL>
select member from v$logfile;
MEMBER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/hyp01/u9001/HYPP/redo/redo01a.log
/hyp01/u9002/HYPP/redo/redo01b.log
/hyp01/u9002/HYPP/redo/redo02a.log
/hyp01/u9003/HYPP/redo/redo02b.log
/hyp01/u9003/HYPP/redo/redo03a.log
/hyp01/u9004/HYPP/redo/redo03b.log
Above
is still pointing to the old locations “/hyp01/” so now change them to the new
location;
connect to the database :
SQL>
select open_mode from v$database;
OPEN_MODE
----------
MOUNTED
Run
the below script to rename the logfiles to new locations:
alter database rename file '/hyp01/u9001/HYPP/redo/redo01a.log' to
'/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo01a.log';
alter database rename file
'/hyp01/u9002/HYPP/redo/redo01b.log' to
'/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo01b.log';
alter database rename file '/hyp01/u9002/HYPP/redo/redo02a.log' to
'/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo02a.log';
alter database rename file '/hyp01/u9003/HYPP/redo/redo02b.log' to
'/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo02b.log';
alter database rename file '/hyp01/u9003/HYPP/redo/redo03a.log' to
'/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo03a.log';
alter database rename file '/hyp01/u9004/HYPP/redo/redo03b.log' to
'/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo03b.log';

/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo02b.log
/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo03a.log
/adm02/u0001/oracle/datafile/HYPP/redo03b.log
6 rows selected.
16) Final
Step:- Open the database in RESTLOGS
mode( SINCE WE JUST DID AN INCOMPLETE MEDIA RECOVERY)
SQL>
SQL>
alter database open resetlogs;
Database altered.
SQL>
select open_mode from v$database;
OPEN_MODE
----------
READ WRITE
Do
a quick check to verify all the files are online:
SQL>
select distinct status from v$datafile;
STATUS
-------
ONLINE
SYSTEM
Now the database is ready
for Application Rock & Roll. J
FAQS:
Q) Why I used this method or why can't
you use that/this way? or Tom said this way to do the job?
A)
You can mess up oracle in numerous ways at the same time you can use numerous
ways to do the restore.
The methods or scripts I used here are
best of my ability and knowledge, if you know a better, simple and short way
please use so and post the same if it is successful.
