Creating a Data Guard Database with RMAN (Recovery Manager) using Duplicate Command [ID 183570.1]
**Checked for relevance on 26-Mar-2012***
PURPOSE
-------
To understand and use the Data Guard database features of Recovery manager from 9i
SCOPE & APPLICATION
-------------------
All users of RMAN that have need of creating or refreshing a
Oracle Data Guard Database using Recovery manager.
Topics discussed:
==============
1. Summary of test environment.
2. Duplicate for Standby restrictions.
3. RMAN Standby database commands.
4. Primary INIT.ORA setup
5. Standby INIT.ORA setup
6. Example of making an RMAN backup for standby.
7. Restoring the database to the standby location.
8. Put the standby into managed recovery mode.
9. References
1. Summary of test environment:
===============================
The production database is "PROD".
The standby database is "STANDBY"
Testing was done on SUN hardware and SUN Solaris 2.8
2. Standby Restrictions:
=========================
Note the following restrictions involved when using the DUPLICATE
command to create a standby database:
-- The standby instance must be started but not mounted.
-- RMAN must be connected to the target database and to the auxiliary
instance. If desired, you can connect to the recovery catalog.
-- At least one auxiliary instance channel must be allocated in the RUN
block. You can allocate multiple auxiliary channels if needed.
-- Backups and copies on disk are available at the standby host with the
same path names as in the target host.
-- Backups on tape are accessible from the standby host.
-- Backups on disk are available at the standby host with the same
pathnames as in the target host.
-- If archived logs have not been backed up, then archived logs must be
available at the standby host with the same path names as in the target
host.
-- If RMAN recovers the standby database, then the checkpoint SCN of the
control file must be included in an archived redo log that is either
available at the standby site or included in an RMAN backup. For example,
assume that you create the standby control file and then immediately
afterwards archive the current log, which has a sequence of 100. You must
recover the standby database up to at least log sequence 100, or Oracle
signals ORA-1152 because the standby control file backup or copy was
taken after the point in time.
-- You cannot specify the SKIP READONLY and LOGFILE options of the
DUPLICATE command. These options are legal for a duplicate database but
illegal for the creation of the standby database.
-- You cannot use SET NEWNAME or SET AUXNAME to transform. the filenames for
the online redo logs on the standby database. You cannot use the DUPLICATE
command to activate a standby database.
3. RMAN Standby database commands:
==================================
CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY -
makes a backup of the current control file that can be used with a standby
database. A standby control file can also be used as an ordinary control
file backup, so you can restore it in the target database if necessary.
DUPLICATE FOR STANDBY -
creates a standby database rather than a duplicate database. Specify this
keyword only when creating a standby database.
DORECOVER -
specifies that RMAN should recover the database after creating it. If you
specify an untilClause, then RMAN recovers to the specified point and
opens the database. If you do not specify this keyword, then RMAN
creates the standby database and then leaves it mounted.
4. Primary INIT.ORA setup:
==========================
db_name = PROD
instance_name = PROD
fal_client = PROD
fal_server= STANDBY
log_archive_dest_1 = 'LOCATION=/p01/app/oracle/product/9.0.1/dbs/arch'
log_archive_dest_2 = 'SERVICE=STANDBY LGWR ASYNC NOAFFIRM'
log_archive_format = %t_%s.dbf
log_archive_start = true
remote_login_passwordfile = EXCLUSIVE
service_names = PROD
Additional information on these parameters can be found in the Oracle 9i
Reference Manual Available at http://tahiti.oracle.com.
5. Standby INIT.ORA setup:
==========================
# Copy the init.ora from production to standby.
# Edit the initSTANDBY.ora to make neccessary changes:
db_name = "PROD" -- Must match the production database.
instance_name = STANDBY -- Instance identifier
lock_name_space = STANDBY -- Used when the standby or clone have the same
name as the production database being copied.
service_names = STANDBY -- Specifies the service names supported by the
instance.
fal_client = STANDBY -- Specifies the service name resolved from the
remote host to fetch archive logs to local.
fal_server = PROD -- Specifies the service name resolved on the
local host to request archive logs from remote.
db_file_name_convert = ('/p01/oradata/PROD',
'/u03/STANDBY/oradata')
log_file_name_convert = ('/p01/oradata/PROD',
'/u03/STANDBY/oradata')
# Use these parameters if you have a different filesystem structure on the
# standby. Then edit all the dump_dest and controlfile locations for the
# standby site.
standby_archive_dest = /p01/app/oracle/product/9.0.1/dbs/arch
standby_file_management = auto
REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE = EXCLUSIVE
- Create a password file for the standby database using orapwd command:
Create a password file 'orapwSTANDBY' file in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
directory and the password for internal "pwd".
orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwSTANDBY password=pwd entries=5
6. Making a backup of the target for standby:
=============================================
Connect to the target and the recovery catalog using Recovery manager:
setenv ORACLE_SID=PROD
rman nocatalog target /
Recovery Manager: Release 9.0.1.1.0 - 64bit Production
(c) Copyright 2001 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
connected to target database: PROD (DBID=3261937922)
using target database controlfile instead of recovery catalog
Configure channels if you have not already. See the following Note for more
