Dell Avamar for Oracle 19.10 User Guide

To restore a database after an unsuccessful restore attempt:

1. Restore the control file. Restoring Oracle data with RMAN provides more information.
2. Note the system change number (SCN) that corresponds to the backups that you need to restore.
3. Log in to Oracle RMAN by using the Oracle user ID and password.
4. Connect to the Oracle database to restore.
5. Type the following commands:

   allocate channel c1 type sbt PARMS="SBT_LIBRARY=install-dir\
   /lib/libobk_avamar.so" format '%d_%U';
   send '"--flagfile=/oracle/my-avtar-flags.txt"\
   "--bindir=install-dir/bin"';
   restore database;
   restore archivelog until scn scn;
   release channel c1;
   } where:
   

   • install-dir is the base installation directory for the platform (for example, /usr/local/avamar on Linux, /opt/AVMRclnt on Solaris, and C:\Program Files\avs\bin on Windows).
   • scn is an SCN value noted in step 2.
6. Use Oracle documentation to perform other necessary recovery steps.
