Hello everybody,
I'm saving an Oracle 8.0.5 on Windows NT with RMAN.
Therefor i has made a script to delete Backups and Archivelogs which
are older than 30 Days.
In the script I use the command " list backupset of archivelog until
time 'SYSDATE -30' " to get
the Information which Redologs I have.
Last week I must restore the Database to an older date (only 3 hours
back) and in fact of that
I must made a new incarnation in the RecoveryCatalog (with the
command reset database).
Now I have the problem that my list doesen't show me the Redologs of
the older incarnations.
The only way I found was to reset the database to an older
incarnation, but this is only possible if
the target-Database is in the state nomount. (If I shutdown the
Database only to get information which
Archivelogs I could delete, my customer will kill me.)
Is there any way to get information about the backups and
archivelogs of the older incarnations without
'reset the database to incarnation' ?
Every idea would be helpfull .
best regards
