Explore practice-focused Oracle RMAN workflows by simulating rare scenarios and applying best practices to backups, restores, and duplicates across conceptual and hands-on blocks.
This is a description of this fantastic tool. What can we do with it, what are the situations we'll need it.
Learn how to configure RMAN backups with formats, redundancy, and recovery windows, including keeping two to three backups, pruning old backups, and managing backup sets, archived logs, and encryption.
Explore how the RMAN catalog provides redundancy, centralizes backup metadata, and enables easy restoration, reporting, and script sharing across multiple databases.
Configure the recovery manager catalog to store backups and metadata by setting up a dedicated database and allocating space for production use.
Get your Rman catalog safe, and make an export in order to have a backup.
In this topic, we'll see how the catalog get the information from control file to be always syncronized with.
Learn to synchronize the RMAN catalog with the database, performing full synchronization after changes and accounting for a seven-day catalog delay. Understand matching metadata and database naming considerations.

This section show the relation between backup sets and the reset of the redo log files
Explore the difference between consistent and inconsistent backups, noting that a closed database yields matching control and data files, while open backups need log files for recovery.
Learn to restore an Oracle database with RMAN by verifying full backups, dropping files to simulate loss, and restoring the control file and data from backups, then starting the instance.
This preparation is valid for both duplicate techniques (backup of active)
Learn to list datafiles and redo logs, gather metadata with a simple query, and create asm directories to prepare for duplicating a database with RMAN.
Learn to duplicate an Oracle RMAN database from an active source without backups, connecting to the source and pumping data to a remote clone at sites like Madrid and Barcelona.
In this lecture, we'll learn how to use backup files stored in ASM diskgroup, and restore them into a standard file system
Welcome to this Oracle Rman course !!
First of all I would like to say that this course is a mix of real situations plugged into blocks and lectures. You'll not find a copy paste of the Oracle documentation, even if I always use it to create the lessons, and I'll give you a lot of oficial documentation references. So yes, if you pick up this course you'll find a lot of way to make properly all you need to do in your day by day as Oracle dba.
During this course we'll se the following topics:
- Short Rman presentation
- How to create a Rman catalog
- How to configure all the options of Rman
- How to make maintenance of Rman in order it works always fine
- Make some backups
- Restore a full database from scratch
- Use Rman to duplicate database
All this topics will be demos... You'll get all the technics usefull to make this and additionally to the videos, you'll have the sql sentences and rman commands into a txt file.
The course is structured to go from the most easy task to the most complicated one. The evlolution of the topics is done to make it easy for all the students.
The main caracteristic of why you need this course is the fact that I'll not speack about theory, just practice. This is all the students wants, how to make something and make it properly, with always the Oracle best practices methods.

If production database is lost, you need to know how to restore it from a backup. If your departement need a copy of the production database to test some new release code, then you can use the duplicate command to create it. There are a lot of situation that the Rman skills of the dba are required and this course is perfect to get the Oracle knowledge.
So do not have more doubts, let take this course and get the control of RMAN.
