    Problem applying archivelogs using RMAN

    Hi,

    Am using RMAN to perform a hot (online) backup of the database and the archivelogs :

    RMAN hot backup script :

    connect target;
    report schema;
    run {
    allocate channel d1 type disk;
    sql 'alter system archive log current';
    backup skip inaccessible archivelog all delete input format '/opt/abc/backup/arch%n%s%t.dmp';
    backup database format '/opt/abc/backup/db%n%s%t.dmp';
    copy current controlfile to '/opt/abc/backup/control_bck_hot.ctl';
    }
    exit

    RMAN restore script :

    connect target;
    shutdown;
    startup nomount;
    run {
    allocate channel d1 type disk;
    replicate controlfile from '/opt/abc/backup/control_bck_hot.ctl';
    }
    alter database mount;
    run {
    allocate channel d1 type disk;
    restore database;
    recover database;
    sql 'alter database open resetlogs';
    }
    exit

    Now, the restore of the datafiles work, but the archivelogs do not get applied :

    RMAN-06005: connected to target database: CTRLM (DBID=3024875402)
    RMAN-06009: using target database controlfile instead of recovery catalog

    RMAN-06054: media recovery requesting unknown log: thread 1 scn 67315480

    Recovery Manager complete.
    The backup script cannot be changed, and no catalog'ing is enabled for RMAN.

    Is there anything I need to change in the restore script to restore and apply the archivelogs? If not, Is there a way I can extract the archivelogs from archXXX.dmp file and apply them manually? Else I will not be able to get a consistent db.

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you can restore archivelog manually with command :

    rman> restore archivelog all;
    If you don't have all archivelogs in the backupsets, you can issue command :

    rman> restore archivelog from time="dd.mm.yyyy"
    or
    rman> restore archivelog until scn 123123
    or
    rman> restore archivelog until time="dd.mm.yyyy"
    ....

    check documentation of RMAN !
