Error in recovery after BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG
214077Jun 20 2006 — edited Jun 21 2006Hi,
With Oracle 9.2.0.6 on Unix Aix 5, I made:
rman ...
RUN
{
ALLOCATE CHANNEL disk1 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/base/tempora/%U';
BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;
}
Copy files from /base/tempora/% to another server in a directory with the same name.
Recreate the pfile and directory structure, and then
rman...
RUN
{
ALLOCATE CHANNEL disk1 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/base/tempora/%U';
restore controlfile to '/base/rcterefo/oracle/o1_mf_19xw2mvb_.ctl';
restore controlfile from '/base/rcterefo/oracle/o1_mf_19xw2mvb_.ctl';
sql 'alter database mount';
restore database;
recover database;
sql 'alter database open resetlogs';
release channel disk1;
}
But rman fails at -> recover database; by asking an archive log 6 months old (and not in the backupset):
ORA-00279: change 1224563589 generated at 02/09/2006 16:29:46 needed for thread

Additional information: 3
Original base seems to works fine (can be stoped and restarted).
I thought that this BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG would contain in itself all the data needed to restart the database. Database has been stopped and restarted last week with no problem and I regularly do full backup with RMAN and TSM (we are testing now backups without TSM for a spacial case).
Has someone an idea of what's wrong?
Thanks
