Testing an implemented backup method
We want to perform a restore test from the implemented backup and I have some quiestions on the exact process
Scenario:
- Windows 2012
- Oracle Database 12.1
- Grid Infrastructure 12.2
- Database configured with Dataguard (physical standby)
- Database storage in ASM
- Fast Recovery Area in file system
- Backup: RMAN backup on standby database
- RMAN catalog on a third server
- Controlfile autobackup is enabled
The restore has been requested to be done on a totally separate server:
- Clone of primary server (including Windows, Oracle installations, local Windows accounts and Windows services)
- IP and host name identical to original server (done by the hosting provider)
