You can repeat this phase if a BRRESTORE call has failed.
You restore the control files when using BRRECOVER to perform:
Complete database recovery for split/standby control files
For a whole database reset, you also restore the online redo log files, but only if you selected an offline backup.
Whereas a whole database reset always restores the control files, a database PIT recovery only restores them if they:
Are missing
Do not match the selected backup
This procedure calls BRRESTORE to restore the control files and - if required for whole database reset - the online redo log files.
Set the required options:
Menu Entry |
Equivalent BRRESTORE Command Option |
---|---|

This shows you the BRRESTORE command that is to be executed using the current settings. |
Restore device type (device) is taken from the device type used for the selected backup.
Files for restore (mode) refers to the Oracle file ID or the keyword archive_logs. The files for restore varies:
For the control files restore, a dummy file ID, 0, is used.
For the restore of online redo log files from an offline consistent backup (only relevant for whole database reset, as described above), a dummy file ID of 00 is used.
To start the restore with the selected options, choose Continue.
Check the results in the BRRESTORE logs:
The summary log rest<DBSID>.log displays the return code.
The detail log r<encoded timestamp>.rsb displays the progress.
