Using RMAN to Create a Duplicate Database
Use the RMAN DUPLICATE command to create a duplicate database using target database backups.
Archivedredo log files
Data file backups
Target database
Auxiliary instance

Using a Duplicate Database
You can use a duplicate database to:• Test backup and recovery procedures• Recover objects by creating an export and importing the
objects into the production database

Creating a Duplicate Database
1. Create an Oracle password file for the auxiliary instance.2. Establish Oracle Net connectivity to the auxiliary instance.3. Create an initialization parameter file for the auxiliary
instance.4. Start the auxiliary instance in NOMOUNT mode.5. Mount or open the target database.6. Ensure that backups and archived redo log files are
available.7. Allocate auxiliary channels if needed.8. Execute the DUPLICATE command.

Creating an Initialization Parameter File for the Auxiliary Instance
Specify parameters as follows:• DB_NAME
– If the duplicate database is in the same Oracle home as the target database, names must be different.
– Use the same value in the DUPLICATE command.• DB_BLOCK_SIZE
– Specify the same value as set for the target database.

Specifying Parameters for Control File Naming
Specify the following parameters to control the naming of the files of your auxiliary database:• CONTROL_FILES• DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT• LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT
CONTROL_FILES='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/aux/control01.ctl', '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/aux/control02.ctl', '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/aux/control03.ctl'DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl', '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/aux'LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl', '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/aux'

Starting the Instance in NOMOUNT Mode
• Start the auxiliary instance in NOMOUNT mode.• Create a server parameter file (SPFILE) from the text
initialization parameter file you used to start the instance.
SQL> startup nomount pfile='$HOME/auxinstance/initAUX.ora'ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 285212672 bytesFixed Size 1218992 bytesVariable Size 92276304 bytesDatabase Buffers 188743680 bytesRedo Buffers 2973696 bytesSQL> create spfile 2 from pfile='$HOME/auxinstance/initAUX.ora';
File created.

Ensuring That Backups and Archived Redo Log Files Are Available
• Backups of all target database data files must be accessible on the duplicate host.
• Backups can be a combination of full and incremental backups.
• Archived redo log files needed to recover the duplicate database must be accessible on the duplicate host.
• Archived redo log files can be:– Backups on a media manager– Image copies– Actual archived redo log files

Allocating Auxiliary Channels
• Auxiliary channels specify a connection between RMAN and an auxiliary database instance.
• If automatic channels are not configured, allocate auxiliary channels:
– Start RMAN with a connection to the target database, the auxiliary instance, and recovery catalog if applicable.
– Allocate at least one auxiliary channel within the RUN block.
$ rman target sys/oracle@trgt auxiliary sys/oracle@auxRMAN> RUN {ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL aux1 DEVICE TYPE DISK; ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL aux2 DEVICE TYPE DISK; …

Using the RMAN DUPLICATE Command
• Connect to the target database and the auxiliary instance.• Specify the same database name that you used in the DB_NAME initialization parameter.
RMAN> RUN {ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL aux1 DEVICE TYPE DISK; ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL aux2 DEVICE TYPE DISK; … DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE to auxdb; }

Understanding the RMAN Duplication Operation
When you execute the DUPLICATE command, RMAN performs the following operations:• Creates a control file for the duplicate database• Restores the target data files to the duplicate database• Performs incomplete recovery using all available incremental
backups and archived redo log files• Shuts down and restarts the auxiliary instance• Opens the duplicate database with the RESETLOGS option• Creates the online redo log files• Generates a new, unique database identifier (DBID) for the
duplicate database

You can specify the following options with the DUPLICATE command:
Enable RESTRICTED SESSION automaticallyOPEN RESTRICTED
Exclude read-only tablespacesSKIP READONLY
Prevent checking of file namesNOFILENAMECHECK
SKIP TABLESPACE
Option
Exclude named tablespaces
