Hello Experts I need your advise.

I just setup my Backup on Tape for Oracle DB 10.1.0.2.0 Standard Ed running on Windows Server 2003 SP1. I am using Tivoli Data Protection for Oracle: Version 5.2.0.0.

My Retention Policy is set to 7 Day Recovery Window. I am using Customized policy to take Whole Database Offline Backup every Week (Saturday) and use that for base of incremental backup strategy on Tape

Then I have another job to take Incremental Level 1 backup on Tape running daily with option to Referesh the lastest datafile on disk to current time using incremental backup option. This is an Online backup. I have back up all archived logs on disk option checked as well. I delete obsolete back up with daily incremental backup.

my DB is 50GB and my Flash Recovery area is 70GB.

After I did my first full backup, I ran Restore Database Validate; and got the following warning.

RMAN-06908: WARNING: operation will not run in parallel on
the allocated channels
AN-06909: WARNING: parallelism require Enterprise Edition

Can you please advise if my policy is good for recovery to 7 days. and also what does those warning mean? will i be able to restore & recover my DB using tape or no? I am using Enterprise manager to setup these jobs. Also is it ok to have full base backup offline and then incremental backup online?

Thanks
Adnan

All things considered, this is an above average post;
especially since it is only #2 for you.

You need to help us by following the Posting Guidelines as stated below.
http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/
So we can help you (& this is not meant as any criticism).

I suggest you place your DB into archive mode
& ship off archived logfiles.

You are doing the correct actions; test, test & re-test.
Document the whole recovery procedure so you'll have recipe
when you need to do the recovery for real.

I apologize for not formatting the above post properly, but will try better next time.

Yes, My DB is in Archivelog mode.

How about these warning messages?

RMAN-06908: WARNING: operation will not run in parallel on
the allocated channels
AN-06909: WARNING: parallelism require Enterprise Edition

I just want to clear my understanding about the whole process & have 2 more questions

1. Up untill now I had Oracle Suggested Strategy (both disk and tape) now since i am using Customized strategy how can i get rid of datafiles saved in my Flash Recovery Area as Image Copies. Can i just go to Manage Current Backups in the EM and delete those backups to reclaim free space in Flash Recovery Area

2. When I turned the archive mode on I did not take full Offline backup in my Production DB. Will running a full weekly offline backup be good for my future restore & recovery or RMAN will still be looking at old backup from suggested strategy.

Please clarify.
Thanks
Adnan

These messages warn that you don't have the license/edition to back up in parallel.
See your script or configuration paramaters and remove parallelism.

Since I am on Std. Edition of Oracle enterprise manager I don't see the option of parallalism anywhere. I did not select this parameter, Where and how can I remove this?

Thanks

How can I know if what you said is what you really have?
Post "show all".
Post your scripts.

Hi:
Please review the show all results below. I have setup the backup strategy through

Enterprise manager and I do not see any place on the EM where it shows anything related to

Parallalism. I am not using any RMAN scripts on my own, Its all through Enterprise manager.

RMAN> show all;

using target database controlfile instead of recovery catalog
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 7 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE TO '%F'; # defa
ult
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET; # default

CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS  'ENV=(tdpo_optfile=c:\progra~1\t
ivoli\tsm\agentoba\tdpo.opt)';
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\DATABASE01\DATA
BASE\SNCFTESTDB.ORA'; # default

RMAN>

Thanks
