1) It is important that we maintain the same directory structure as the original server when restoring Oracle through RMAN. Gather information about your directory structure from your previous (failed) machine:
- Datafile Location
- Archivelog Location
- Oracle Binaries Location
- RMAN Backups Location
3) Place the RMAN backups in the appropriate location as defined in the controlfile.
4) Create Windows service for the database:
C:\>oradim -new -sid ORCL -startmode m C:\>oradim -edit -sid ORCL -startmode a
Make sure that the service is started so we may be able to connect to it in the next steps.
5) Get the DBID of the database - I normally get it from the backup report - although this steps is not really necessary (since we restore the SPFILE first) I do recommend it.
6) Create bdump,udump,cdump and create folder at $ORACLE_HOME (if using Oracle versions before 11g)
7) Connect with rman to the target database at local server:
C:\>Documents and Settings\Administrator>set ORACLE_SID=ORCL C:\>Documents and Settings\Administrator>rman target /
8) Configure RMAN:
RMAN> set dbid 123456789 RMAN> startup nomount
9) Restore SPFILE:
RMAN> restore spfile from 'D:\EXPORT\RMAN\C-3648252040';
RMAN> startup force nomount;
11) Restore controlfile:
RMAN> restore controlfile from 'D:\EXPORT\RMAN\C-3648252040'; RMAN> shutdown; RMAN> exit;
12) Proceed to restore and recovery:
RMAN> startup mount; RMAN> shutdown immediate; RMAN> startup mount; RMAN> restore database; RMAN> recover database; RMAN> alter database open resetlogs; RMAN> exit
Now you should have a completely recovered database!
