I sucessfully switched the database into ARCHIVELOG mode. I am then
running this script (abbreviated for brevity) to back it up:
connect internal as sysdba
This all appears to run fine, but I have two questions on my
unsuccessful restore:
#1. Something appears to be wrong with my control file backup. Upon
moving the backed up files to my "test" machine, I place them in the
data directory, and rename my control file backup to the correct name
and run this procedure:
ORA-00283: recovery session canceled due to errors
ORA-01610: recovery using the BACKUP CONTROLFILE option must be done
alter tablespace SYSTEM begin backup;
cp $ORACLE_DATA/system*.dbf /home/oracle/backup
alter tablespace SYSTEM end backup;
...I do the above for each tablespace...
archive log stop
...Run procedure to archive logfiles...
archive log start
alter database backup controlfile to
'/home/oracle/backup/controlfile.bck';
Does anyone have any thoughts around this?
#2.
Thanks so much for everyone's time.
