QUESTION 49
In Recovery Manager (RMAN), you are taking image copies of the data files of your production database and
rolling them forward at regular intervals. You attempt to restart your database. After a regular maintenance
task, you realize that one of the data files that belongs to the USERS tablespace is damaged and you needto
recover the data file by using the image copy. Because a media failure caused the data file to be damaged,
you want to place the data file in a different location while restoring the file. Which option must you consider for
this task?
A. using only the RMAN SWITCH command to set the new location for the data file
B. placing the database in the MOUNT state for the restore and recovery operations.
C. using an RMAN RUN block with the SET NEWNAME and then the SWITCH command.
D. configuring two channels: one for the restore operation and the other for the recovery operation
Answer: C

RMAN automates the procedure for restoring files. Youdo not need to go into the operating system, locate the
backup or copy that you want to use, and manually copy files into the appropriate directories. When you issue
a RESTOREcommand, RMAN directs a server session to restore the correct backups and copies to either:
The default location, overwriting the files with the same name currently there
A new location, which you can specify with the SET NEWNAMEcommand
To restore a datafile, either mount the database orkeep it open and take the datafile to be restored offline.
When RMAN performs a restore, the RESTOREcommand creates the restored files as datafile copies and
records them in the repository. The following tabledescribes the behavior of the RESTORE, SET NEWNAME, and
SWITCHcommands.
For example, if you restore datafile ?/oradata/trgt/tools01.dbfto its default location, then RMAN
restores the file ?/oradata/trgt/tools01.dbfand overwrites any file that it finds with the same filename.
If you run a SET NEWNAMEcommand before you restore a file, then RMAN creates a datafile copy with the
name that you specify. For example, assume that yourun the following commands:
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE '?/oradata/trgt/tools01.dbf' TO '/tmp/tools01.dbf';
RESTORE DATAFILE '?/oradata/trgt/tools01.dbf';
In this case, RMAN creates a datafile copy of ?/oradata/trgt/tools01.dbfnamed /tmp/tools01.dbf
and records it in the repository.
To change the name for datafile ?/oradata/trgt/tools01.dbfto /tmp/tools01.dbfin the control file,
run a SWITCHcommand so that RMAN considers the restored file asthe current database file. For example:
SWITCH DATAFILE '/tmp/tools01.dbf' TO DATAFILECOPY '?/oradata/trgt/tools01.dbf';
The SWITCHcommand is equivalent to the SQL statement ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE.
