Class Description:

This hands-on training is intended for experienced Oracle technologists** who need to use or evaluate Recovery Manager (RMAN), Oracle's utility for backup and recovery. Personnel new to backup and recovery or those currently using user-managed backup techniques will benefit from this class. This Oracle10g compatible course is a comprehensive and practical introduction to RMAN including architecture, setup, backup, restore and recovery, recovery catalog maintenance, debugging, tuning and reporting. Every lesson contains many working examples and at least one hands-on workshop (exception: Intro and Architecture chapters contain Q&A summary only).

Audience: Oracle Database Administrators and Oracle operators

Prerequisites ** : Students must possess a working knowledge of:

  • Oracle architecture (e.g. What is archiving? What is the control file?)
  • Oracle startup and shutdown (e.g. What is MOUNT mode? What is the parameter file?)
  • Some DDL commands such as CREATE TABLESPACE

Backup and recovery concepts are helpful but not necessary (e.g. what is a point in time recovery?).

Objectives: After successfully completing this course, you will be able to:

  • Use RMAN to backup all your 8.x, 9.x and 10g databases to disk or tape
  • Use RMAN to backup Automatic Storage Management (ASM) files
  • Use RMAN to restore and recover all your 8.x, 9.x and 10g databases
  • Tune RMAN operations (disk and tape)
  • Perform full and incremental backups (to disk or tape) of databases, tablespaces and datafiles
  • Perform complete and incomplete (point in time) recoveries
  • Backup and Recover the control file
  • Use the new Oracle10g features such as compressed backups, change tracking and recovery through database incarnations
  • Create RMAN scripts
  • Allocate channels to employ parallelism and other tuning techniques
  • Generate RMAN reports to determine what can be recovered, what needs to be backed up and more.
  • Maintain the RMAN recovery catalog and target database control file
  • Use special RMAN features such as backup set duplexing, restore validation and more
