Summary
This document contain a set of exercises developed to provide a general understanding of backup and recovery
of Oracle Database using Oracle Recovery Manager, RMAN.
This hands on practice is organized into 4 chapters
 CATALOG
 ADMINISTRATION
 BACKUP
 RESTORE AND RECOVERY
RMAN Check List
This checklist provides a quick overview of items that are important to consider when working with RMAN
 Define a backup retention policy

 Setup CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON
 Setup ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY to a number of ‘backed up’ times that satisfy your
recovery needs
 Generate logs of backup jobs and monitor them for errors
 Execute periodically administrative scripts to clean up the backup repository from obsolete and
expired backups
 Use a Flash Recovery Area to maintain an online staging area of your last backups. That will enable
fast restore and recovery in case of need
 Use a change tracking file and incremental backups that satisfy your recovery needs.
3/185
 Prepare and test a complete set of recovery scenarios and train the DBA team on them, they should
include at least the following scenarios:
 System Tablespace loss

 Online Redolog loss
 Controlfile loss
 Data Tablespace loss
 Single/multiple datafile loss
 Archived log sequences loss- Block corruptions recovery
 Total loss (database)
 Total loss (server = database/software/parameter files)
The Hands-On Environment
10g RDBMS software
Oracle databases configured to use Oracle Managed Files:
 db_create_file_dest = /oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/oradata
 db_recovery_file_= /oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/flash_recovery_area
1 catalog database named NEO

1 test database named SATI
Two general setup scripts are used to set the environment, they are run from within most other scripts.
4/185
CATALOG
This chapter show how to create the Rman catalog, how to register a database with it and how to review some of
the information contained in the catalog.
The Catalog chapter covers the following topics:
 1-set-catalog
 2-create-catalog
 3-register-database
 4-verify-registration
 5-manual-backup-registration
 6-create-scripts
 7-export-catalog
 8-query-catalog
 9-get-catalog-version
 10-upgrade-catalog
 11-unregister-database
 12-drop-catalog

ADMINISTRATION
This chapter show how execute the most common administrative tasks within rman. They are important in order
to maintain a catalog that reflects the real backups we have. maintaining a clean updated catalog will help to
simplify restore operarations.
The Administration chapter covers the following topics:
 1-crosscheck
 2-list
 3-report
 4-delete
 5-keep-forever
1-crosscheck
#!/bin/tcsh
# 1-crosscheck
# Crosscheck check that cataloged backups exist on disk or tape;

# if they don't exist they are marked as expired;
# if they exist but are no longer required to satisfy the redundancy policy, it mark the backups as obsolete.
# Obsolete and expired backups can be removed from disk and the catalog later
# with the delete obsolete/expired commands.

On the 2nd run of the script, the output will be similar to that of the first run. There will be no incremental backup to
recover the level 0 so the recover will not take place, then a level 1 backup will be created.
On the third and successive runs the output will show that the recover process will apply the changes of the
previous incremental backup, and a new incremental backup will be created. This is the output of the 3 rd run:

RECOVERY
Restore and recovery are the critical ends of the Backup and Recovery policies, in this chapter we simulate
critical failures and we will execute the restore and recovery using the backups implemented on the previous
chapter.
The following scenarios will be tested:
 1-system-tablespace-loss and
o 1b-recover-system-tablespace
 2-user-datafile-loss and
o 2b-recover-users-tablespace
