Hi,
I’m a relative newcomer to Metallic, and I’m working with one of our Oracle DBAs to form a recovery plan for his environment, a series of Oracle RAC instances.
One of the tests we’re trying to run is a restore of a Table (as opposed to a Tablespace) - documentation is unclear on the subject, but Metallic allows us to step through and submit a job to restore In-place. The problem we’re seeing is that the job fails early on, with the following error dump:
“18:183 Failed with Oracle DB/RMAN error [channel ORA_AUX_SBT_TAPE_1: ORA-19870: error while restoring backup piece 15532648_BIRESTOR_0r1hpnd4_27_1_1 ORA-19502: write error on file "/Exadata_11g_Backup/Bob_Test4/BIRESTOR/datafile/o1_mf_system_kwj1m5hj_.dbf", block number 234496 (block size=8192)”.
I’ve got a support ticket open with Metallic and there’s a suggestion that what we’re trying to do may not be supported - I’m surprised at this, since the software lets us step through a process and submit a job.
If anyone can shed light on what might be happening here or offer advice, I would be most grateful.
Thanks,
Bob
