Thanks. That worked, but I still don't understand why I need a standby controlfile backup when I am not creating a standby database.

RMAN> BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY; On Thu, Nov 3, 2011 at 8:30 AM, Schauss, Peter (ESS) <peter.schauss_at_ngc.com<mailto:peter.schauss_at_ngc.com>> wrote: This is Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 running on Aix 5.3.
I am trying to duplicate a production database to create a test environment (and to test my backup strategy). My backup script looks like this:
export ORACLE_SID=$1
rman nocatalog <<EOF
connect target sys/syspassword
run {
allocate channel ch1 type disk format '$BACKUP_DIR2/${BASE_NAME}_1_%U.rbk'; allocate channel ch2 type disk format '$BACKUP_DIR2/${BASE_NAME}_2_%U.rbk'; allocate channel ch3 type disk format '$BACKUP_DIR2/${BASE_NAME}_3_%U.rbk'; allocate channel ch4 type disk format '$BACKUP_DIR2/${BASE_NAME}_4_%U.rbk'; allocate channel ch5 type disk format '$BACKUP_DIR2/${BASE_NAME}_5_%U.rbk'; allocate channel ch6 type disk format '$BACKUP_DIR2/${BASE_NAME}_6_%U.rbk'; backup database plus archivelog; sql 'ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT';}
exit
My duplicate script is:
export ORACLE_SID=pro2qa
rman nocatalog <<EOF
connect auxiliary sys/syspassword
run{
set newname for datafile 1 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/system01.dbf'; set newname for datafile 2 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/undotbs01.dbf'; set newname for datafile 3 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/sysaux01.dbf'; set newname for datafile 4 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/users01.dbf'; set newname for datafile 5 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/indxts1_x01.dbf'; set newname for datafile 6 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/datats1_d01.dbf'; set newname for tempfile 1 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/temp01.dbf'; set newname for datafile 7 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/datats2_db01.dbf'; set newname for datafile 8 to '/u06/oradata/pro2qa/indexts2_db01.dbf';duplicate database to pro2qa
backup location '/orabkup2/pro2/rman'
logfile
group 1('/u06/oradata/pro2qa/redo01.log') size 50m, group 2('/u06/oradata/pro2qa/redo02.log') size 50m, group 3('/u06/oradata/pro2qa/redo03.log') size 50m;}
exit
EOF When I run the duplicate script I get:
channel ORA_AUX_DISK_1: restoring control file
RMAN-00571: =========================================================== RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS =============== RMAN-00571: ===========================================================RMAN-03002: failure of Duplicate Db command at 11/03/2011 09:05:44 RMAN-03015: error occurred in stored script Memory Script ORA-19697: standby control file not found in backup set
Why is it asking for standby control file?
Looking at the output from my backup script I see that the control file is being backed up:
including current control file in backup set channel ch5
I also backed up the control file separately using:
alter database backup controlfile to <file nam>;
FWIW, a search for ORA-19697 on MOS turns up nothing.
Also, when I ran this same script several months ago I was able to successfully duplicate the database.
What's going on here?
Thanks,
Peter Schauss
