Silly question: Did you use ‘using backup controlfile’ so that it does not try 
to bring you current?

Pavan, I am not trying to create a new standby database. I'm trying to create a 
primary database from the backups produced from the standby.

 

Tony, I tried applying a dozen logs after the backup was completed and still no 
luck.

 

Timur, the BACKUP DATABASE command does that automatically. It also archives 
the log following the backup and includes that in the backupset.

 

Ajay, I seemed to have luck with using NOREDO on testing of my system but when 
I tried to use it against the database I am trying to fix, it is not making any 
difference. I don't get the error about file 1 needing more recovery but when I 
go to open the database with resetlogs, I get the error.

Hi,

 

Actually, end-user is trying to create/duplicate new standby from existing one. 
So, he needs to cancel the MRP which makes the files consistent.

Else MRP would be up and running and SYSTEM datafile and rest of the data-files 
would be fuzzy.

 

- Thanks

Do you archive current log on primary before taking backup on standby?

I've tried this on 12.1.0.2 on Linux 6 and 11.2.0.4 on Windows 2008R2 with the 
same result.

*       Single node database with a single node physical standby.
*       Incremental level 0 backup on the standby.
*       Create another new instance on the same server as the standby.
*       Restore the control file and the database from the backups that were 
taken from the standby.
*       Set new names for the data files during restore.
*       Switch all data files to the newly restored copies.
*       Rename online log files.
*       PITR on new database.
*       Receive the error ORA-01194: file 1 needs more recovery to be consistent

No matter how far I try to recover, I continue to receive this error:

ORA-01547: warning: RECOVER succeeded but OPEN RESETLOGS would get error below

ORA-01194: file 1 needs more recovery to be consistent

ORA-01110: data file 1: 
'/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1/dbs/data_D-ORCLA_TS-SYSTEM_FNO-1'

 

All data files that are not read only are at the same SCN and above the SCN of 
the read only files.

 

SYSTEM, SYSAUX and UNDOTBS1 are all in a "fuzzy" state, although I can't figure 
out why.
