VALIDATE ARCHIVE LOGS..

[Tajammul_Ahmed]

Hi,

I want to validate my archave log with current databse, when I execute the command from UNIX prompt, I'm getting the fallowing
#rman
RMAN>
RMAN> crosscheck archivelog all ;

I'm getting the below error.
RMAN> corsscheck archivelog all;

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

RMAN-01008: the bad identifier was: corsscheck

for your information I'm using oracle 9i.

how I can mount the databse in RMAN mode?

Thanks and best regards

hey

you wrote corsscheck instead of crosscheck.

check this reference:

Hi,

Still not clear, I want the exact command how to mount the DB at RMAN level.

Thanks

[Oviwan · Accepted solution]

execute:
select status from v$instance;
in sqlplus and when the db is mounted so the db is mounted.

what kind of rman repository have you? controlfile or db?

if controlfile, start rman like this:
export ORACLE_SID=YOUR_SID
rman target / nocatalog

and then you should be able to validate your archivelogs..

p.s. don't forget to say thanks with hp points, also i your other threads.
