rman restore when all redo logs are gone

edited Aug 5, 2013 7:57PM in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered
We are testing a situation where we lose all database files, control files and redo logs.  We have been able to restore the control files (using RMAN rrestore from autobackup) and were able to restore the datafiles from the rman backup.   I know that RMAN does not backup redo logs.  

The databae is in archivelog mode.  The test situation that we try is we signon to the server (AIX) and then delete the files while the database is up.  We then do a shutdown abort.

These are the steps we do:

-  start the database in nomount

-  run the rman restore controlfile command (works)

Howdy, Stranger!
