Database COLD backup & Restore from TAPE

Database COLD backup & Restore from TAPE

Here I want to duplicate the PROD database to QA.
Here my PROD db is not a live Prod database instead it is a reporting database.

There are some limitations and restrictions like REPORTING DB is in no archivelog mode and no disk space to take the backup and has given permission to take down the DB for a cold backup to TAPE.


DB Backup on the source host:

=====mount the database with the restore controlfile=======

RMAN> sql 'alter database mount';

using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
sql statement: alter database mount

===Start the restore:

#!/bin/ksh

export ORACLE_SID=MYDB

delete noprompt expired backup;
}

Now:

Started the restore again with trace on just in case:-

RMAN-08031: released channel: ch01
RMAN-08031: released channel: ch03


After the crosscheck and cleanup. RMAN restored 2TB database in less than 7hrs.

In my Restore script I forgot to include "switch datafile all" at the end.
Since we are using "set newname for datafile 1 to NEW" I should have added "switch datafile all"

After restore:-
==================================

RMAN> run {
2> allocate channel ch01 type disk;
3> switch datafile all;
4> }


This didn't work since the channels used for restore has been released and my restore session has been ended.



But after the restore we can do this by going to RMAN>

While database in mount state and all the files has been restored:

RMAN>
RMAN> catalog start with '+QADB_DATA_01/QADB/datafile';
switch database to copy;

RMAN>

This will only work is ALL the datafiles are restored, otherwise the SWITCH DATABASE TO COPY will fail.


Before you open the database:
disable any change tracking


SQL>ALTER DATABASE DISABLE BLOCK CHANGE TRACKING;


Now:-

SQL>ALTER DATABASE OPEN;

Since this is arestore from COLD backup there is no media recovery and hence no "resetlogs option"






At this point database is UP and running:



Stage-2:-

Now I want to rename this Database to something else. I am using NID to change the DBNAME and DBID of the restored database.
