5) To force RMAN to back up a file regardless of whether it’s identical to a previously backed up file by specifying the force option
 RMAN> backup database force;

By using the force option, you make RMAN back up all the specified files, even if the backup optimization feature is turned on.

  
6) To backup complete database
 RMAN> backup database;

  
7) To backup database plus archivelogs
 RMAN> backup database plus archivelogs;


8) To backup all archive logs
RMAN> backup archivelog all;

9) To backup specific data file
RMAN> backup datafile 5 tag dbfile_5_bkp;

A tag was also added to easily locate this datafile’s backup.

1) Add user-managed copies of datafile to RMAN repository
 RMAN> catalog datafilecopy ‘/u01/oracle/users.bkp’;
 RMAN> catalog datafilecopy ‘/u01/oracle/users.bkp’ level 0;  (To catalog as incremental level 0 backup)


2) Add uncataloged backup piece to RMAN repository
 RMAN> catalog backuppiece ‘ertt2lu4_1_1′;
 
3) To catalog multiple files ( say you copied production backup to target database for database cloning)
 RMAN> catalog start with ‘/backups/source_bkp’ noprompt;

The start with clause specifies that RMAN catalog all valid backup sets, datafile copies, and archived redo logs starting with the string pattern you pass.

 4) To catalog all files in the flash recovery area
 RMAN> catalog recovery area;

 1) To find out which backups you need to make in order to conform to the retention policy you put in place

 RMAN> report need backup;

 
2) To get a report about all the datafiles in a database

RMAN> report schema;
RMAN> report schema at time ‘sysdate-1′;  (from a past point in time)

3) To reports on any obsolete backups

RMAN> crosscheck backup;
RMAN> report obsolete;

Always run the crosscheck command first in order to update the status of the backups in the RMAN repository to that on disk and tape.

 1) To review RMAN backups of datafiles, archived redo logs, and control files.

 RMAN> list backup;

 
2) List the backups by just the backup files
 RMAN> list backup by file;

3) Lists only backup sets and proxy copies but not image copies
 RMAN> list backupset; 


4) Lists only datafile, archived redo log, and control file copies
 RMAN> list copy;

5) Lists backups by tag:
 RMAN> list backupset tag ‘full_database_backup’;

6) To list the backups of all datafiles and archivelogs of the target database:
RMAN> list backup of database;


7) Lists all incarnations of a database
 RMAN> list incarnation;

When you perform an open resetlogs operation, it results in the creation of a new incarnation of the database. 
When performing recovery operations on such a database, you might want to check the database incarnation

8) Lists all restore points in the target database
 RMAN> list restore point;

9) Lists the names of all recovery catalog scripts
RMAN> list script names;

10) Which of the backups of the target database have an expired status in the repository.
 RMAN> list expired backup;

 
11) Which of the archived redo log backups have the expired status
 RMAN> list expired archivelog all;

 
12) To restrict the list of backups  and copies whose status is listed as available
 RMAN> list recoverable backup;

13) To view all the restore points in the database
RMAN> list restore point all;

1) Cross-checking just backup sets
RMAN> crosscheck backupset;

 
2) Cross-checking a copy of a database
RMAN> crosscheck copy of database;

 
3) Cross-checking specific backupsets
RMAN> crosscheck backupset 10, 12;
 

4) Cross-checking using a backup tag
RMAN> crosscheck backuppiece tag = ‘monthly_backup’;
 
5) Cross-checking a control file copy;
RMAN> crosscheck controlfilecopy ‘/backups/control01.ctl’; 

6) Cross-checking backups completed after a specific time
RMAN> crosscheck backup of datafile “/u01/oracle//system01.dbf” completed after ‘sysdate-7′;

7)  Cross-checking of all archivelogs and the spfile
RMAN> crosscheck backup of archivelog all spfile; 

8) Cross-checking all backups on disk and tape
RMAN> crosscheck backup;

The crosscheck command checks whether the backups still exist. The command checks backup sets, proxy copies, and image copies.

1) To remove both archived redo logs and RMAN backups

RMAN> delete backup;
RMAN always prompts you for confirmation before going ahead and deleting the backup files. You can issue the delete noprompt command to suppress the confirmation prompt. This will also remove the physical file from the backup media

 To make sure the repository and the physical media are synchronized, run “RMAN> crosscheck backup;” before running above command

2) To remove all image copies
RMAN> delete copy;

To make sure the repository and the physical media are synchronized, run “RMAN> crosscheck copy;” before running above command

3) To delete specfic backuppiece
RMAN> delete backuppiece 9; 


4) To delete copy of controlfile under /backups
RMAN> delete copy of controlfile like ‘/backups/%’;

 
5) To delete backups with specific tag
RMAN> delete backup tag=’double_bkp_prod’;

6) To delete bakups of specific tablespace
RMAN> delete backup of tablespace sysaux device type sbt;
******************

You can also use force, expired, obsolete keyword with delete commad:

delete force ..: Deletes the specified files whether they actually exist on media or not and removes their records from the RMAN repository as well

delete expired ..: Deletes only those files marked as expired  as per crosscheck command.

delete obsolete ..: Deletes datafile backups and copies and the archived redo logs and log backups that are recorded as obsolete in the RMAN repository

The delete obsolete command relies only on the backup retention policy in force.

******************
7) To delete all archived redo logs

 RMAN> delete archivelog all;

8) To delete already backed up archived redo logs
 RMAN> delete archivelog all backed up 2 times to sbt;

 9) To delete specific archived redo logs
 RMAN> delete archivelog until sequence = 1234;

11) Delete stored script
 RMAN> delete script full_disk_db;

If you have two scripts—one local and one global—in the same name, then the delete script command drops the local one, not the global one. If you want to drop the global script, you must use the keyword global in the command, as shown here:

 RMAN> delete global script full_disk_db;

1) Change the status of a backup set to unavailable

 RMAN> change backupset 6 unavailable;

You usually do it when you don’t want to delete the backup/copy but you also don’t want to delete that backup/copy (probably it is not available physically on disk)
Once you mark a backup file unavailable, RMAN won’t use that file in a restore or recover operation.

2)  Change the status of a backup set to available again
 RMAN> change backupset 6 available;

For example, say you performed a backup using an NFS-mounted disk and that disk subsequently becomes inaccessible for some reasons, just  issue the change command to set the status of the backup as unavailable. Later, once the disk becomes accessible again, you can change its status back to available.

3) To modify a regular consistent database backup into an archival backup:
 RMAN> change backup tag ‘initial_db_bkup’ keep forever;

When you make an archival backup with the keep … forever option, RMAN disregards the backup retention time for these backups.
 
4) To change the archival backup to a normal database backup
 RMAN> change backup tag ‘inital_db_backup’ nokeep;

When you run the change … nokeep command, the backup set with the tag inital_db_backup, which was previously designated as a long term archival backup, will once again come under the purview of your configured retention policy.

5) To modify the time period for which you want to retain the archival backups
 RMAN> change backupset 12 keep until time ‘sysdate+60′;

After the 60 days are up, the backup will become obsolete and is eligible for deletion by the delete obsolete command.

1) To check all the datafiles and the archived redo logs for physical corruption  without actually performing the backup
RMAN> backup validate database archivelog all;

3) To validate a single backup set
RMAN> validate backupset 5;

4) To validate all datafiles at once
 RMAN> validate database;

5)  To validate recovery area
 RMAN> validate recovery area;

6) To validate all the recovery related files
 RMAN> validate recovery files;

7) To validate the spfile
 RMAN> validate spfile;

8) To validate specific tablespace
 RMAN> validate tablespace <tablespace_name>;

9) To validate specific control file copy
 RMAN> validate controlfilecopy <filename>;

10) To validate specific backupset
 RMAN> validate backupset <primary_key>;

RMAN Cloning / Duplicate Database

Step by Step - Duplicating Oracle Database using RMAN Backup with connection to source database.

Source Server: 192.168.56.110
Clone Server: 192.168.56.111

As we are duplicating to a different we can use same SID for both Source and Clone. My source DBID is DG

Step1. Put your target database in Archive log mode.

Step2. Start RMAN at Source and Configure CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON
RMAN> CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;

Take Backup of Source Database
RMAN> BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG

Step3. Configure tnsnames and listener at source and clone server as below:

At Source Database Server
--------------------------------------------------------------------
DUP_CONNECT =
 (DESCRIPTION =
 (ADDRESS_LIST =
 (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.56.111)(PORT = 1522))
 )
 (CONNECT_DATA =
 (SERVICE_NAME = dg)
 )
 )
---------------------------------------------------------------------
At Clone Server
----------------------------------------------------------------------
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
 (SID_LIST =
 (SID_DESC =
 (GLOBAL_DBNAME = HCL)
 (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
 (SID_NAME = dg)
 )
 )

LISTENER =
 (DESCRIPTION =
 (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.56.111)(PORT = 1522))
 )
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step4: create orapwd file at clone server's dbs directory
orapwd file=orapwDGL password=oracle entries=10

Step5. Create pfile of Source Database and copy pfile to Clone Server's dbs directory
SQL> create pfile from spfile;

Copy pfile to Clone Server
scp oracle@192.168.195.110:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/initDG.ora /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/

Step6. Create required directories at Clone server. Here I'm using same filesystem as source so no need to use DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT

mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DG
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area/DG
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/admin/DG
cd /u01/app/oracle/admin/DG
mkdir adump dpdump

Step7. Copy backupfile to Clone Server from Source Server
scp -r oracle@192.168.56.110:/u01/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area/HCL/ /u01/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area/

Step8. At Remote Server set ORACLE_SID=DG and start the Clone Server in NOMOUNT mode
SQL> STARTUP NOMOUNT;

Step9: start RMAN at source and connect RMAN to clone as well
At Source
RMAN TARGET /
connect auxiliary sys/oracle@DUP_CONNECT
