Recovery Scenarios (RMAN Included)

Why and when should I backup my database?
Backup and recovery is one of the most important aspects of a DBAs job. If you lose your company's data, you could very well lose your job. Hardware and software can always be replaced, but your Data ???

Normally one would schedule a hierarchy of daily, weekly and monthly backups, however consult with your users before deciding on a backup schedule. Backup frequency normally depends on the following factors:

* Rate of data change/ transaction rate
* Database availability/ Can you shutdown for cold backups?
* Criticality of the data/ Value of the data to the company
* Readonly tablespace needs backing up just once right after you make it readonly
* If you are running in archivelog mode you can backup parts of a database over an extended cycle of days
* If archive logging is enabled one needs to backup archived log files timeously to prevent database freezes
* Etc.

Carefully plan backup retention periods. Ensure enough backup media (tapes) are available and that old backups are expired intime to make media available for new
backups. Offsite
vaulting is also highly recommended.
Frequently test your ability to recover and document all possible scenarios. Remember,
it's the little things that will get you. Most failed recoveries are a result of organizational
errors and miscommunications.
What strategies are available for backingup
an Oracle database?
The following methods are valid for backingup
an Oracle database:
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
* Export/Import Exports
are "logical" database backups in that they extract logical
definitions and data from the database to a file. See the Import/ Export FAQ for more
details.
* Cold or Offline
Backups shut
the database down and backup up ALL data, log, and
control files.
* Hot or Online
Backups If
the database is available and in ARCHIVELOG mode,
set the tablespaces into backup mode and backup their files. Also remember to backup the
control files and archived redo log files.
* RMAN Backups while
the database is offline
or online,
use the "rman" utility to
backup the database.
It is advisable to use more than one of these methods to backup your database. For
example, if you choose to do online
database backups, also cover yourself by doing
database exports. Also test ALL backup and recovery scenarios carefully. It is better to be
safe than sorry.
Regardless of your strategy, also remember to backup all required software libraries,
parameter files, password files, etc. If your database is in ARCHIVELOG mode, you also
need to backup archived log files.
What is the difference between online and offline backups?
A hot (or online)
backup is a backup performed while the database is open and available
for use (read and write activity). Except for Oracle exports, one can only do online
backups when the database is ARCHIVELOG mode.
A cold (or offline)
backup is a backup performed while the database is offline
and
unavailable to its users. Cold backups can be taken regardless if the database is in
ARCHIVELOG or NOARCHIVELOG mode.
It is easier to restore from offline
backups as no recovery (from archived logs) would be
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
required to make the database consistent. Nevertheless, online
backups are less
disruptive and doesn't require database downtime.
Pointintime
recovery (regardless if you do online
or offline
backups) is only available
when the database is in ARCHIVELOG mode.
What is the difference between restoring and recovering?
Restoring involves copying backup files from secondary storage (backup media) to disk.
This can be done to replace damaged files or to copy/move a database to a new location.
Recovery is the process of applying redo logs to the database to roll it forward. One can
rollforward
until a specific pointintime
(before the disaster occurred), or rollforward
until the last transaction recorded in the log files.
SQL> connect SYS as SYSDBA
SQL> RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL TIME '20010306:
16:00:00' USING BACKUP
CONTROLFILE;
RMAN> run {
set until time to_date('04Aug2004
00:00:00', 'DDMONYYYY
HH24:MI:SS');
restore database;
recover database;
}
My database is down and I cannot restore. What now?
This is probably not the appropriate time to be sarcastic, but, recovery without backups
are not supported. You know that you should have tested your recovery strategy, and that
you should always backup a corrupted database before attempting to restore/recover it.
Nevertheless, Oracle Consulting can sometimes extract data from an offline database
using a utility called DUL (Disk UnLoad Life
is DUL without it!). This utility reads
data in the data files and unloads it into SQL*Loader or export dump files. Hopefully
you'll then be able to load the data into a working database.
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
Note that DUL does not care about rollback segments, corrupted blocks, etc, and can thus
not guarantee that the data is not logically corrupt. It is intended as an absolute last resort
and will most likely cost your company a lot of money!
DUDE (Database Unloading by Data Extraction) is another nonOracle
utility that can be
used to extract data from a dead database.
How does one backup a database using the export utility?
Oracle exports are "logical" database backups (not physical) as they extract data and
logical definitions from the database into a file. Other backup strategies normally backup
the physical data files.
One of the advantages of exports is that one can selectively reimport
tables, however one
cannot rollforward
from an restored export. To completely restore a database from an
export file one practically needs to recreate the entire database.
Always do full system level exports (FULL=YES). Full exports include more
information about the database in the export file than user level exports. For more
information about the Oracle export and import utilities, see the Import/ Export FAQ.
[.]
How does one put a database into ARCHIVELOG mode?
The main reason for running in archivelog mode is that one can provide 24hour
availability and guarantee complete data recoverability. It is also necessary to enable
ARCHIVELOG mode before one can start to use online
database backups.
Issue the following commands to put a database into ARCHVELOG mode:
SQL> CONNECT sys AS SYSDBA
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT EXCLUSEVE;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG;
SQL> ARCHIVE LOG START;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
Alternatively, add the above commands into your database's startup command script, and
bounce the database.
The following parameters needs to be set for databases in ARCHIVELOG mode:
log_archive_start = TRUE
log_archive_dest_1 = 'LOCATION=/arch_dir_name'
log_archive_dest_state_1 = ENABLE
log_archive_format = %d_%t_%s.arc
NOTE 1: Remember to take a baseline database backup right after enabling archivelog
mode. Without it one would not be able to recover. Also, implement an archivelog
backup to prevent the archive log directory from fillingup.
NOTE 2:' ARCHIVELOG mode was introduced with Oracle 6, and is essential for
database pointintime
recovery. Archiving can be used in combination with online
and
offline
database backups.
NOTE 3: You may want to set the following INIT.ORA parameters when enabling
ARCHIVELOG mode: log_archive_start=TRUE, log_archive_dest=..., and
log_archive_format=...
NOTE 4: You can change the archive log destination of a database online
with the
ARCHIVE LOG START TO 'directory'; statement. This statement is often used to switch
archiving between a set of directories.
NOTE 5: When running Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC), you need to shut down
all nodes before changing the database to ARCHIVELOG mode. See the RAC FAQ for
more details.
[.]
I've lost an archived/online REDO LOG file, can I get my DB back?
The following INIT.ORA/SPFILE parameter can be used if your current redologs are
corrupted or blown away. It may also be handy if you do database recovery and one of
the archived log files are missing and cannot be restored.
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
NOTE: Caution is advised when enabling this parameter as you might endup
losing your
entire database. Please contact Oracle Support before using it.
_allow_resetlogs_corruption = true
This should allow you to open the database. However, after using this parameter your
database will be inconsistent (some committed transactions may be lost or partially
applied).
Steps:
* Do a "SHUTDOWN NORMAL" of the database
* Set the above parameter
* Do a "STARTUP MOUNT" and "ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;"
* If the database asks for recovery, use an UNTIL CANCEL type recovery and apply
all available archive and online
redo logs, then issue CANCEL and reissue the "ALTER
DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;" command.
* Wait a couple of minutes for Oracle to sort itself out
* Do a "SHUTDOWN NORMAL"
* Remove the above parameter!
* Do a database "STARTUP" and check your ALERT.LOG file for errors.
* Extract the data and rebuild the entire database
User managed backup and recovery
This section deals with user managed, or nonRMAN
backups.
How does one do offline
database backups?
Shut down the database from sqlplus or server manager. Backup all files to secondary
storage (eg. tapes). Ensure that you backup all data files, all control files and all log files.
When completed, restart your database.
Do the following queries to get a list of all files that needs to be backed up:
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
select name from sys.v_$datafile;
select member from sys.v_$logfile;
select name from sys.v_$controlfile;
Sometimes Oracle takes forever to shutdown with the "immediate" option. As
workaround to this problem, shutdown using these commands:
alter system checkpoint;
shutdown abort
startup restrict
shutdown immediate
Note that if you database is in ARCHIVELOG mode, one can still use archived log files
to roll forward from an offline
backup. If you cannot take your database down for a cold
(offline)
backup at a convenient time, switch your database into ARCHIVELOG mode
and perform hot (online)
backups.
How does one do online
database backups?
Each tablespace that needs to be backedup
must be switched into backup mode before
copying the files out to secondary storage (tapes). Look at this simple example.
ALTER TABLESPACE xyz BEGIN BACKUP;
! cp xyfFile1 /backupDir/
ALTER TABLESPACE xyz END BACKUP;
It is better to backup tablespace for tablespace than to put all tablespaces in backup mode.
Backing them up separately incurs less overhead. When done, remember to backup your
control files. Look at this example:
ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE; Force
log switch to update control file
headers
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO '/backupDir/control.dbf';
NOTE: Do not run online
backups during peak processing periods. Oracle will write
complete database blocks instead of the normal deltas to redo log files while in backup
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
mode. This will lead to excessive database archiving and even database freezes.
My database was terminated while in BACKUP MODE, do I need to recover?
If a database was terminated while one of its tablespaces was in BACKUP MODE
(ALTER TABLESPACE xyz BEGIN BACKUP;), it will tell you that media recovery is
required when you try to restart the database. The DBA is then required to recover the
database and apply all archived logs to the database. However, from Oracle 7.2, one can
simply take the individual datafiles out of backup mode and restart the database.
ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE '/path/filename' END BACKUP;
One can select from V$BACKUP to see which datafiles are in backup mode. This
normally saves a significant amount of database down time. See script end_backup2.sql
in the Scripts section of this site.
From Oracle9i onwards, the following command can be used to take all of the datafiles
out of hotbackup mode:
ALTER DATABASE END BACKUP;
This command must be issued when the database is mounted, but not yet opened.
Does Oracle write to data files in begin/hot backup mode?
When a tablespace is in backup mode, Oracle will stop updating its file headers, but will
continue to write to the data files.
When in backup mode, Oracle will write complete changed blocks to the redo log files.
Normally only deltas (change vectors) are logged to the redo logs. This is done to enable
reconstruction of a block if only half of it was backed up (split blocks). Because of this,
one should notice increased log activity and archiving during online
backups.
To solve this problem, simply switch to RMAN backups.
RMAN backup and recovery
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
This section deals with RMAN backup:
What is RMAN and how does one use it?
Recovery Manager (or RMAN) is an Oracle provided utility for backingup,
restoring and
recovering Oracle Databases. RMAN ships with the database server and doesn't require a
separate installation. The RMAN executable is located in your ORACLE_HOME/bin
directory.
In fact RMAN, is just a Pro*C application that translates commands to a PL/SQL
interface. The PL/SQL calls are stallically linked into the Oracle kernel, and does not
require the database to be opened (mapped from the ?/rdbms/admin/recover.bsq file).
RMAN can do offline
and online
database backups. It cannot, however, write directly to
tape, but various 3rdparty
tools (like Veritas, Omiback, etc) can integrate with RMAN to
handle tape library management.
RMAN can be operated from Oracle Enterprise Manager, or from command line. Here
are the command line arguments:
Argument Value Description
target
quotedstring
connectstring
for target database
catalog quotedstring
connectstring
for recovery catalog
nocatalog none if specified, then no recovery catalog
cmdfile quotedstring
name of input command file
log quotedstring
name of output message log file
trace quotedstring
name of output debugging message log file
append none if specified, log is opened in append mode
debug optionalargs
activate debugging
msgno none show RMANnnnn
prefix for all messages
send quotedstring
send a command to the media manager
pipe string building block for pipe names
timeout integer number of seconds to wait for pipe input
Backup
and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
Here is an example:
[oracle@localhost oracle]$ rman
Recovery Manager: Release 10.1.0.2.0 Production
Copyright (c) 1995, 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
RMAN> connect target;
connected to target database: ORCL (DBID=1058957020)
RMAN> backup database;
...
How does one backup and restore a database using RMAN?
The biggest advantage of RMAN is that it only backup used space in the database.
RMAN doesn't put tablespaces in backup mode, saving on redo generation overhead.
RMAN will reread
database blocks until it gets a consistent image of it. Look at this
simple backup example.
rman target sys/*** nocatalog
run {
allocate channel t1 type disk;
backup
format '/app/oracle/backup/%d_t%t_s%s_p%p'
(database);
release channel t1;
}
Example RMAN restore:
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
rman target sys/*** nocatalog
run {
allocate channel t1 type disk;
# set until time 'Aug 07 2000 :51';
restore tablespace users;
recover tablespace users;
release channel t1;
}
The examples above are extremely simplistic and only useful for illustrating basic
concepts. By default Oracle uses the database controlfiles to store information about
backups. Normally one would rather setup a RMAN catalog database to store RMAN
metadata in. Read the Oracle Backup and Recovery Guide before implementing any
RMAN backups.
Note: RMAN cannot write image copies directly to tape. One needs to use a thirdparty
media manager that integrates with RMAN to backup directly to tape. Alternatively one
can backup to disk and then manually copy the backups to tape.
How does one backup and restore archived log files?
One can backup archived log files using RMAN or any operating system backup utility.
Remember to delete files after backing them up to prevent the archive log directory from
filling up. If the archive log directory becomes full, your database will hang! Look at this
simple RMAN backup scripts:
RMAN> run {
2> allocate channel dev1 type disk;
3> backup
4> format '/app/oracle/archback/log_%t_%sp%p'
5> (archivelog all delete input);
6> release channel dev1;
7> }
The "delete input" clause will delete the archived logs as they as backedup.
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
List all archivelog backups for the past 24 hours:
RMAN> LIST BACKUP OF ARCHIVELOG FROM TIME 'sysdate1';
Here is a restore example:
RMAN> run {
2> allocate channel dev1 type disk;
3> restore (archivelog low logseq 78311 high logseq 78340 thread 1 all);
4> release channel dev1;
5> }
How does one create a RMAN recovery catalog?
Start by creating a database schema (usually called rman). Assign an appropriate
tablespace to it and grant it the recovery_catalog_owner role. Look at this example:
sqlplus sys
SQL> create user rman identified by rman;
SQL> alter user rman default tablespace tools temporary tablespace temp;
SQL> alter user rman quota unlimited on tools;
SQL> grant connect, resource, recovery_catalog_owner to rman;
SQL> exit;
Next, log in to rman and create the catalog schema. Prior to Oracle 8i this was done by
running the catrman.sql script.
rman catalog rman/rman
RMAN> create catalog tablespace tools;
RMAN> exit;
You can now continue by registering your databases in the catalog. Look at this example:
rman catalog rman/rman target backdba/backdba
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
RMAN> register database;
One can also use the "upgrade catalog;" command to upgrade to a new RMAN release, or
the "drop catalog;" command to remove an RMAN catalog. These commands need to be
entered twice to confirm the operation.
How does one integrate RMAN with thirdparty
Media Managers?
The following Media Management Software Vendors have integrated their media
management software with RMAN (Oracle Recovery Manager):
• Veritas NetBackup http://
www.veritas.com/
• * EMC Data Manager (EDM) http://
www.emc.com/
• * HP OMNIBack/ DataProtector http://
www.hp.com/
• IBM's Tivoli Storage Manager (formerly ADSM) http://
www.tivoli.com/storage/
• EMC Networker http://
www.emc.com/
• BrightStor ARCserve Backup http://
www.ca.com/us/datalossprevention.
aspx
• Sterling Software's SAMS:Alexandria (formerly from Spectralogic) http://
www.sterling.com/sams/
• SUN's Solstice Backup http://
www.sun.com/software/whitepapers/backupnstorage/
• CommVault Galaxy http://
www.commvault.com/
The above Media Management Vendors will provide first line technical support (and
installation guides) for their respective products.
A complete list of supported Media Management Vendors can be found at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/deploy/availability/htdocs/bsp.htm
When allocating channels one can specify Media Management spesific parameters. Here
are some examples:
Netbackup on Solaris:
allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE'
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
PARMS='SBT_LIBRARY=/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/libobk.so.1';
Netbackup on Windows:
allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE' send "NB_ORA_CLIENT=client_machine_name";
Omniback/ DataProtector on HPUX:
allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS='SBT_LIBRARY= /
opt/omni/lib/libob2oracle8_64bit.sl';
or:
allocate channel 'dev_1' type 'sbt_tape' parms
'ENV=OB2BARTYPE=Oracle8,OB2APPNAME=orcl,OB2BARLIST=machinename_or
cl_archlogs)';
How does one clone/duplicate a database with RMAN?
The first step to clone or duplicate a database with RMAN is to create a new INIT.ORA
and password file (use the orapwd utility) on the machine you need to clone the database
to. Review all parameters and make the required changed. For example, set the
DB_NAME parameter to the new database's name.
Secondly, you need to change your environment variables, and do a STARTUP
NOMOUNT from sqlplus. This database is referred to as the AUXILIARY in the script
below.
Lastly, write a RMAN script like this to do the cloning, and call it with "rman cmdfile
dupdb.rcv":
connect target sys/secure@origdb
connect catalog rman/rman@catdb
connect auxiliary /
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
run {
set newname for datafile 1 to '/ORADATA/u01/system01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 2 to '/ORADATA/u02/undotbs01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 3 to '/ORADATA/u03/users01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 4 to '/ORADATA/u03/indx01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 5 to '/ORADATA/u02/example01.dbf';
allocate auxiliary channel dupdb1 type disk;
set until sequence 2 thread 1;
duplicate target database to dupdb
logfile
GROUP 1 ('/ORADATA/u02/redo01.log') SIZE 200k REUSE,
GROUP 2 ('/ORADATA/u03/redo02.log') SIZE 200k REUSE;
}
The above script will connect to the "target" (database that will be cloned), the recovery
catalog (to get backup info), and the auxiliary database (new duplicate DB). Previous
backups will be restored and the database recovered to the "set until time" specified in the
script.
Notes: the "set newname" commands are only required if your datafile names will
different from the target database.
The newly cloned DB will have its own unique DBID.
Can one restore RMAN backups without a CONTROLFILE and RECOVERY
CATALOG?
Details of RMAN backups are stored in the database control files and optionally a
Recovery Catalog. If both these are gone, RMAN cannot restore the database. In such a
situation one must extract a control file (or other files) from the backup pieces written out
when the last backup was taken. Let's look at an example:
Backup and Restore Scenarios Balaji R S
Let's take a backup (partial in our case for ilustrative purposes):

Now, let's destroy one of the control files:
