Roll forward recovery

The Avamar Plug-in for Oracle supports roll-forward recovery by providing the Open the database with resetlogs after recovery advanced option in Avamar Administrator. The installation of the Avamar Plug-in for Oracle enables this advanced option by default.

The Open the database with resetlogs after recovery option instructs the restore operation to open the database with resetlogs after the restore completes. The opening of the database with resetlogs initializes the logs, resets the log sequence number, truncates the available changes in the redo logs, and starts a new incarnation of the database.

To roll forward a database after a restore operation completes, you must clear the Open the database with resetlogs after recovery option in the Restore Command Line Options dialog box. When you clear this option, the restore operation does not open the database with resetlogs. You can apply archive logs to recover the database to the most current point-in-time that is available.
