Hi guys,
  I don't know if it's well known behaviour of rman and redundancy 1 but recenty I've hit RMAN-06024: no backup or copy of the control file found to restore
when trying to PITR of pdb .

Suppose You do have below backup strategy :

Level 0 on Sunday (to fra)
Level 1 on any other day (to fra) .

So in theory You should be able let's say on friday to do PITR restore to the Monday level 1 right ?
Not really, when You try :

run {
set until time "to_date('_MONDAY_', 'yyyy-mm-dd:hh24:mi:ss')"; restore pluggable database UAT;
recover pluggable database UAT auxiliary destination='/oracle/staging'; }

You get :
and getting this error :
Automatic instance removed

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 07/19/2017 15:11:19
RMAN-03015: error occurred in stored script Memory Script
RMAN-06026: some targets not found - aborting restore RMAN-06024: no backup or copy of the control file found to restore

As there is only 1 recent copy of controlfile keep in FRA autobackup location .
Solution would be setting retension to 5 days .

Regards .
G
