Oracle Restore

We are restoring an oracle rac to a new oracle rac in the DR.

Trying to bplist the images of the production RAC results in an no entity was found when i try to list from anywhere but the Production RAC nodes

No.Restrictions file is created under /usr/openv/netbackup/db/altnames/

i can bplist any other workload but cannot list the oracle

    Hello,

    If it is a RAC-aware backup configured through the webUI console, dont use hostname as a client name in the bplist. Use something like this instead:

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bplist -PI -C <DBNAME>_<DBID> -t 4 -l -R /c-*

    Regards

    Michal

    We have a Flex Appliance with the primary, media and worm created on it

    i tried also to do a chmod 777 on both the altnames and norestrictions file but with the same result

        Thank you Michal_Mikulik1 ,

        we did use the dbname_dbid and it worked !

         

        I just have another question do you know a script to use or what to do if we are restoring to a different db name as when i tried to mount the database after restoring the control file it gave me this error:

        "database name 'proddb' in control file is not 'rekdb' rman restore"
