Can you give us the following?
Output of
Report backup summary
Have you tried doing a crosscheck backup? May need to allocate 2 channels for maintenance.
Allocate channel for maintenance device type sbt; Allocate channel for maintenance device type disk;
Then give us report backup summary again. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

Subject: RMAN restore database preview vs actual restore
I'm testing a D/R situation, specifically a Netbackup redirected client restore, source being a 10.2.0.4 RAC two-node instance; restoring to a single-instance.
After restoring the spfile, restarting the instance, restoring the
control file, and startup mount; I issue a "restore database preview"
to validate that I have
all backupsets necessary to perform an incomplete recovery.
RMAN correctly lists all backupsets for the last complete backup, 580 through 584.
However, when I attempt to actually perform the recovery, RMAN starts
at backupset 574, which is no longer available. So my general
question would be, why
would there be a discrepancy? 580-584 is the last complete backup
and is available, why would RMAN try and go to an earlier backup,
contrary to the
results of the preview?
Thanks,
Jeff
