In this post I will show how I can restore and recover a database to another host. In this case DBID of the database will be the same as of original database. But whenever your purpose is to create a new copy of the database then use RMAN DUPLICATE; this will change the DBID of the new database.
In this example my database name dbase1 and the database dbase1 is running on neptune machine. I like to take a backup on neptune machine, transfer the backup to saturn machine and perform restore and recover in saturn machine.
1)In neptune machine(Source)

3)Determine the DBID of source machine(Neptune here)
SQL> select dbid from v$database;
DBID
----------

4)Now perform task on target machine(Saturn here).
First set ORACLE_SID,
-bash-3.00$export ORACLE_SID=dbase1
Then connect to rman,
-bash-3.00$ rman target /

10)Make a script by issuing SET NEWNAME if you want different file name other than source.
In the script issue SET UNTIL clause and restore and recover database.
RMAN> @/export/home/oracle/rman
RMAN> run{
2> set newname for datafile 1 to '/oradata2/DBase1/system01.dbf';
3> set newname for datafile 2 to '/oradata2/DBase1/undotbs01.dbf';
4> set newname for datafile 3 to '/oradata2/DBase1/sysaux01.dbf';
5> set newname for datafile 4 to '/oradata2/DBase1/users01.dbf';
6> set newname for datafile 5 to '/oradata2/DBase1/tbs201.dbf';
7> set newname for datafile 6 to '/oradata2/DBase1/after_01.dbf';
8> set newname for datafile 7 to '/oradata2/DBase1/after_02.dbf';
9> set newname for datafile 8 to '/oradata2/DBase1/after_03.dbf';
10> set newname for datafile 1 to '/oradata2/DBase1/system01.dbf';
11>
12> SET UNTIL SCN 745212;
13> RESTORE DATABASE;
14> SWITCH DATAFILE ALL;
15> RECOVER DATABASE;
16> }
11)Open the Database resetlogs option.
RMAN> alter database open resetlogs;
database opened.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI am not sure weather on the new host Saturn, should exist a created database or not ?
Arju thanx for answer...
ReplyDeleteJust to make sure,it means that only oracle software is installed without any database on sturn host ?
regards
Hi Arju,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much!
This information is very useful for me!
It's exactly that I tried to find!
Thank you very much again...
Daniel
Is this procedure applicable for oracle 9i
ReplyDeleteArju
ReplyDeleteI guess the above post helps to change DB ID/Name after restoration. Isn't it? Situation is the test server has already one instance with same DB name as production.I will have to restore the production backup with different DB name in test server.
Thanks
Suresh
