Oracle PRM-DUL User Guide V0.3: Using PRM-DUL examples & Case Study

Summary

 

ParnassusData Recovery Manager (PRM-DUL) is an enterprise Oracle database recovery tool, which can extract database datafile from Oracle 9i, 10g, 11g, 12c directly without any SQL execution on database. ParnassusData Recovery Manager was developed by Java, which can be used cross platforms. It can be run without any installation. Download it, and click to run

 

 

PRM-DUL has full rich GUI for any command. It is not necessary to learn script or master any skill in Oracle data structure. Recovery Wizard is integrated in the tool.

Why PRM-DUL is necessary?

 

Isn’t RMAN enough for ORACLE database recovery? Why need PRM-DUL for Oracle recovery?

In modern growing IT systems, database size is growing geometrically. Oracle DBAs are facing the problem that disks are insufficient for full backup, and tape storages take much more time than usual expectation.

 

Truth been told, “Database, backup 1st” is the first lesson for DBAs, however that fact is : disk space is not sufficient, new storage is still on the way, even the backup image may not work.

 

In order to solve the above problems, PD Recovery Manager integrates the algorithm in Oracle database data structure, boot process which can solve system table lost, data dictionary error, and storage corruption impaction. In addition, it can also recovery the data from Truncate/DROP mistake.

 

No matter you are a professional DBA or new fish in Oracle world, you can master this user-friendly tool immediately. PRM-DUL is easy to install and use. You don’t need to have any Oracle deep knowledge or skill in scripts, but just click-by-click finishing all recovery process.

 

Comparing the traditional recovery tool like Oracle DUL that is an Oracle internal tool and only for Oracle employee usage. PRM-DUL can be used for any kind of IT professionals or geeks. It saves time, decreases the recovery failure, and cuts down the total cost of enterprise.

 

There are 2 modes for data recovery:

By traditional way, data has to be extract to text file and then insert to new DB by SQLLDR tools, which takes double time and occupies double storage size.

 

ParnassusData Recovery Manager integrates data bridge features, which can extract data from original source database and then insert into new destination database without any inter-media. This is a truly time and storage saver.

 

Oracle ASM is becoming popular in enterprise database implementation, due to its advantage in high performance, cluster support, and easy administration. However, for many IT professionals, ASM is a black box. Once ASM occurs error in disk group mounting, it means that all data is locked in ASM. In this circumstance, without PRM-DUL, only senior Oracle experts can patch ASM internal structure, which is also a problem for oracle normal user.

 

PRM-DUL now can support two kinds of ASM data recovery:

 

  1. Once Disk Group cannot be mounted, PRM-DUL can read metadata, and clone ASM file from Disk Group
  2. Once Disk Group cannot be mounted, PRM-DUL can read ASM file and extract data, which supports data export, and data bridge 2 modes

 

 

 

 

PRM-DUL Software Introduction

ParnassusData Recovery Manager (PRM-DUL) was developed by Java, which ensured cross-platform ability. No matter AIX, Solaris, HPUNIX, Red-Hat, Oracle Linux, SUSE, or Window, It can be run smoothly.

Case Study on Oracle database recovery via PRM-DUL

 

 

CASE 1: Truncate table by mistake

User D had truncated a table by mistake on production environment. The DBA tried to recover table from RMAN backup, and accidently the backup is unavailable. Therefore DBA decided to use PRM-DUL for rescuing all truncated data.

Since all database system files are healthy, DBA just needs to load SYSTEM table data file in dictionary mode and TRUNCATED table file. For example:

 

create table ParnassusData.torderdetail_his1  tablespace  users asselect * from parnassusdata.torderdetail_his; 

 

 

SQL> desc  ParnassusData.TORDERDETAIL_HIS
 Name                    Null?    Type

 B_ISDELETE                       CHAR(1)
 N_SHOPID                         NUMBER(10)
 N_ORDERID                        NUMBER(10)
 C_ORDERCODE                      CHAR(20)
 N_MEMBERID                       NUMBER(10)
 N_SKUID                          NUMBER(10)
 C_PROMOTION                      NVARCHAR2(5)
 N_AMOUNT                         NUMBER(7,2)
 N_UNITPRICE                      NUMBER(7,2)
 N_UNITSELLINGPRICE               NUMBER(7,2)
 N_QTY                            NUMBER(7,2)
 N_QTYFREE                        NUMBER(7,2)
 N_POINTSGET                      NUMBER(7,2)
 N_OPERATOR                       NUMBER(10)
 C_TIMESTAMP                      VARCHAR2(20)
 H_SEQID                          NUMBER(10)
 N_RETQTY                         NUMBER(7,2)
 N_QTYPOS                         NUMBER(7,2)select count(*) from ParnassusData.TORDERDETAIL_HIS;

Run PRM-DUL, and select Tools =>Recovery Wizard

 

PRM-DUL-DUL12

 

Click Next

 

PRM-DUL-DUL13

 

Client did not user ASM storage, therefore just select ‘Dictionary Mode’:

PRM-DUL-DUL14

 

Next, we need to select some characters: including Endian bit order and DBNAME

Since Oracle datafiles have different Endian bit orders on different OS, please choose accordingly:

 

Solaris[tm] OE (32-bit) Big
Solaris[tm] OE (64-bit) Big
Microsoft Windows IA (32-bit) Little
Linux IA (32-bit) Little
AIX-Based Systems (64-bit) Big
HP-UX (64-bit) Big
HP Tru64 UNIX Little
HP-UX IA (64-bit) Big
Linux IA (64-bit) Little
HP Open VMS Little
Microsoft Windows IA (64-bit) Little
IBM zSeries Based Linux Big
Linux x86 64-bit Little
Apple Mac OS Big
Microsoft Windows x86 64-bit Little
Solaris Operating System (x86) Little
IBM Power Based Linux Big
HP IA Open VMS Little
Solaris Operating System (x86-64) Little
Apple Mac OS (x86-64) Little

 

In traditional UNIX, AIX (64-bit), UP-UNIX (64-bit), it use Big Endian bit order,

 

PRM-DUL-DUL15

 

Usually, Linux X86/64, Windows remain default Little Endian:

PRM-DUL-DUL16

 

Attention: if your data file was generated on AIX, if you want to recover data on window, please select original Big Endian format.

Since the data file is on Linux X86, we select Little as Endian, and input database name. (The input database name can be different from DB_NAME found in datafile header,  the input database name is just an alias. PRM-DUL will check if your PRM-DUL license is valid , the valid license key is generated based on DB_NAME found in datafile header)

PRM-DUL-DUL17

 

Click Next =>Click Choose Files

 

Usually, if the database is not too big, we could select all data files together; if the database capacity is huge and DBA knows the data location, at least you should  select both SYSTEM tablespace and specified datafile.

 

Attention, the GUI Supports Ctrl + A & Shift short keys:

 

PRM-DUL-DUL18

 

PRM-DUL-DUL19

 

Specify the Block Size (Oracle data block size) according to the real circumstance. For example, if default DB_BLOCK_SIZE is 8K, but part of tablespaces’ block size is 16k,then user has to specify them as correct block size one by one.

 

OFFSET setting are just for raw device storage mode, for example: on AIX, based on LV of  normal VG, the offset will be 4k OFFSET.

 

If you are using raw device but don’t know what the OFFSET is, please use dbfsize tool which is under $ORACLE_HOME/bin

 

 

$dbfsize /dev/lv_control_01Database file: /dev/lv_control_01Database file type: raw device without 4K starting offsetDatabase file size: 334 16384 byte blocks

 

Since all data file block size here is 8K and there is no OFFSET, please click load:

 

PRM-DUL-DUL20

 

PRM-DUL read Oracle dictionary directly, and recreate a new dictionary in embedded database. It can help us to recuse most types of data in Oracle DB.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL21

 

After recreating dictionary, the dialog show character information:

PRM-DUL-DUL22

 

Attention: PRM-DUL supports multiple languages and multiple Oracle character set. However, the prerequisite is the OS had installed specified language packages. For example, on Windows, if you didn’t install Chinese language package, even Oracle database characters are independent and support ZHS16GBK, PRM-DUL would display Chinese as messy code. Once the Chinese language package is installed on OS, PRM-DUL can display multibyte character set properly.

 

Similarly, on Linux, it need font-Chinese language package.

 

[oracle@mlab2 log]$ rpm -qa|grep chinesefonts-chinese-3.02-12.el5

 

After loading, in PRM-DUL GUI, it displayed database tree diagram by database users.

 

Click Users, you can find more users, for example, if user want to recover a table under PARNASSUSDATA SCHEMA, click PARNASSUSDATA, and double click that table:

 

PRM-DUL-DUL23

 

Previously TORDERDETAIL_HIS had been truncated, so it  won’t show any data . Please select unload truncated Data:

 

PRM-DUL-DUL24

 

PRM-DUL will scan the tablespace and extract data from truncated table.

PRM-DUL-DUL25

 

PRM-DUL-DUL26

 

As in the above picture, the truncated TORDERDETAIL_HIS had exported 984359 record, and saved to specified falt file.

In addition, it generated SQLLDR control file for text data importing

 

$ cd /home/oracle/PRM-DUL/PRM-DULdata/parnassus_dbinfo_PARNASSUSDATA/$ ls -l ParnassusData*-rw-r–r– 1 oracle oinstall       495 Jan 18 08:31 ParnassusData.torderdetail_his.ctl-rw-r–r– 1 oracle oinstall 191164826 Jan 18 08:32 ParnassusData.torderdetail_his.dat.truncated

When you import data to original table, ParnassusData strongly recommends you to modify SQLLDR table name as a temp table, it would not impact your previous environment.

 

 

 

 

$ sqlldr control=ParnassusData.torderdetail_his.ctl direct=yUsername:/ as sysdba//user SQLLDR to import data 

 

//Minus can be used for data comparing

select * from ParnassusData.torderdetail_his minus select * from parnassus.torderdetail_his;

 

no rows selected

 

 

 

After diffing, there is no difference between original data and PRM-DUL exported data.

PRM-DUL successfully recovered the truncated table

 

 

CASE 2: Recovery mis-truncated table by DataBridge

 

In Case 1, we use traditional unload+sqlldr for data recovery, but actually ParnassusData would like to strongly recommend using  DataBridge Feature for recovering.

 

Why use DataBridge?

 

  • Traditional unload+sqlldr means a copy of data needs to be saved as flat file on filesystem first, data has to be loaded into Unicode text file and then inserted into destination database by sqlldr, this will take double storage and double time.
  • DataBridge can extract data from source DB and export to destination DB without any intermediary.
  • Once the data arrived destination DB, user can begin to validate them.
  • If source and destination database located on different servers, then read/write IO will be balanced on two servers , MTTR will be saved.
  • If DataBridge is used in truncated table recovery, it is very convenient that truncated data can be exported back to problem database directly.

 

DataBridge is very simple and convenient. Right click the table on the left side, and select DataBridge:

 

PRM-DUL-DUL27

 

 

As the first time to use DataBridge, DB connection information is necessary, which is similar with SQL Developer connection, including: DB host, Port, Service_Name and Account information.

Attention: DataBridge will save data to the specified schema given in the DB connection.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL28

 

AS above G10R25 connection, user is maclean, and the corresponding Oracle Easy Connection is

192.168.1.191:1521/G10R25。

 

After inputting the account/connection information, you can use test for connection testing. If return message is “ Connect to DB server successfully “, the connection is done and click to save.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL29

 

After saving connection and go to DataBridge window, please select Connection G10R25 at the drop down list.

PRM-DUL-DUL30

 

If your DB connection is not in the drop down list, please click DB connection Button, which is highlighted in red.

PRM-DUL-DUL31

 

After selecting DB Connection, Tablespace dropdown list will be selectable:

PRM-DUL-DUL32

 

 

Attention on DataBridge recovering truncated/dropped table: when you recovering truncated/dropped and insert data back to source DB, users should choose another tablespace which diffs from the original tablespace. If export data into same tablespace, oracle will reuse space which stores truncated/dropped table, and can make data overwritten, we will lose the last resort to recover the data.

 

For example, we truncated a table and would like to user DataBridge to recover data back to source database, but we would like to use another table name. Original table name is torderdetail_his, and user can select “if need to remap table” and input proper destination name, as below:

PRM-DUL-DUL33

 

 

 

Attention: 1) For destination DB which already had the same table name, PRM-DUL will not recreate a table but append all recovered data. 2) For destination DB which did not have source table name, PRM-DUL would try to create table and recover the data.

 

In this case, we would recover Truncated data, therefore, please select “if data truncated?” checkbox, Or, PRM-DUL would do regular data extraction, but not Truncated data.

 

Truncate recovery methodology is: Oracle will only update table DATA_OBJECT_ID in data dictionary and segment header. Therefore, the real data will not be overwritten. Due to the difference between dictionary and DATA_OBJECT_ID, Oracle server process will not read truncated data while scanning table. But, the real data is still there.

 

PRM-DUL will try to scan 10M-bytes blocks which are behind of the table’s segment header, if some blocks with smaller DATA_OBJECT_ID than the object’s current DATA_OBJECT_ID, then PRM-DUL thinks it find something useful.

 

 

There is a blank input field called ”if to specify data object id”, which let user input Data Object ID. Usually, you don’t need to input any value, unless the recovery does not work. We suggest user to contact ParnassusData for help.

 

Click DataBridge button ,then it will start extracting if the configuration is done.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL34

 

DataBridge will display the successfully rescued rows and elapsed time.

A System Administrator of company D who deleted SYSTEM tablespace by mistake and make DB can not be open. Unfortunately, there is no RMAN backup available. Therefore, for company D try to use PRM-DUL to recover all data.

 

In this circumstance, run PRM-DUL and go into Recovery Wizard. Select “Non-Dictionary mode”:

PRM-DUL-DUL37

 

PRM-DUL-DUL38

In No-dictionary mode, we have to select DB Character Set and DB National Character Set. Because of while losing SYSTEM tablespace, database cannot find character set information.

 

Similarly as case 1, select all data (not including temp file), and correct Block Size and OFFSET

 

PRM-DUL-DUL39

 

Then click scan button. Then PRM-DUL will scan all segment header and extents in datafile, and record it into SEG$.DAT and EXT$.DAT. In Oracle, each partition table or non-partition table has a segment header. Once we find segment header, we could find the whole table extent map information. Via extent map, we can get all record.

 

There is one exception, for example, there is one non-partition table that is stored in two database files. The segment header and half data are stored in datafile A, and the others are on datafile B.  While system tablespace and datafile A are lost, PRM-DUL couldn’t find segment header associated with problem table, but it can scan datafile B and get the rest extent map.

In order to recover data via segment header and extent map in no-dictionary mode.

PRM-DUL will create two files: SEG$.DAT(stores segment header info) and EXT$.DAT(stores extent info) ,which is also recorded in PRM-DUL embedded database.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL41PRM-DUL-DUL40

 

After scan, there is database icon on the left.

 

Meanwhile, there are 2 option:

 

  • Scan Tables From Segments:
    • System tablespace lost, but user tablespace datafiles are there
  • Scan Tables From Extents
    • Only used when truncated data can not be recovered by Dictionary-Mode
    • Both system tablespace and segment header are lost

 

It is not necessary to use mode “Scan Tables From Extents” at the first time, unless you can’t find your data by “Scan Tables From Segment”.
Scan tables From segments should be your first choice.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL42

 

After scanning tables from segments, there will be a tree diagram on the left.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL43

 

 

Scan Tables is for constructing the data based on segment header in SEG$. The name of each node in the diagram is named by obj+ DATA OBJECT ID.

Click on node and check right side:

Intelligence on Data Analysis

 

Because of SYSTEM tablespace lost, there is not data structure information available in NO-Dictionary mode. The column information includes column name and data type. All these are storage in dictionary but not in table. Therefore, PRM-DUL need to guess the data type. PRM-DUL has a JAVA pre analysis algorithm, and has the ability to analysis more than 10 kinds of types.、

 

Intelligence analysis can successfully guess 90% of columns in most of circumstances

 

On the right side, the meaning of columns:

 

  • Col1 no
  • Seen Count
  • MAX SIZE
  • PCT NULL
  • String Nice
  • Number Nice
  • Date Nice
  • Timestamp Nice
  • Timestamp with timezone Nice

 

 

Sample Data Analysis:

 

PRM-DUL-DUL45

 

 

 

Intelligence Analysis will analyze 10 records and display the results. These results will help client to know the column information.

 

As in the picture, the there are 10 records which had been displayed all.

 

 

TRY TO ANALYZE UNKNOWN column type:

 

 

PRM-DUL-DUL46

 

 

If PRM-DUL cannot recognize the column’s data type , you can specify data type by yourself.

 

So far, PRM-DUL does not support below types:

XDB.XDB$RAW_LIST_T、XMLTYPE、Customized TYPE

 

Unload Statement:

PRM-DUL generated unload scripts, and these scripts can be only used by PRM-DUL support engineers.

 

 

 

PRM-DUL-DUL47

 

 

In “Non-Dictionary Mode”, Data Bridge is also applicable. Comparing ” Dictionary Mode”, the manger difference that the user can define the type in data transferring. As below picture, the column type is UNKNOW. These types might be PRM-DUL unsupported types for example: XML and etc.

 

If the user know the data type in this table (from schema design documents), it is necessary to specify the correct types manually.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL48

 

CASE 5:deleted System Tablespace and Part of User tablespace datafile by mistake

 

User D deleted the system tablespace and part of user tablespace datafile by mistake.

In this circumstance, part of user data table was deleted, and this might includes datafile which stored segment header. Therefore it is better to use “Scan Tables From Extents” than” Scan Tables From Segment Header”.

 

Steps as Below:

 

  1. Go to Recovery Wizard, select No-Dictionary mode,and added all usable data file. Then process them to scan database.
  2. Select database, and right click Scan Tables From Extents
  3. Analyze the data and implement data extraction and Data Bright
  4. Following steps are the same with Case 4

 

CASE 6: rescue datafile from damaged diskgroup which can’t be mounted

 

User D chooses ASM instead of other filesystem. Since there are many bugs in version 11.2.0.1, it may happen that ASM DISKGROUP cannot be mounted or it does not work after repairing ASM Disk Header.

In this circumstance, user can use ASM Files Clone feature of PRM-DUL to rescue datafile from damaged ASM DiskGroup directly.

 

  1. Open main interface, and select ASM File(s) Clone:

PRM-DUL-DUL49

 

 

  1. Enter ASM Disks Window, and click SELECt…to add ASM Disks. For example: /dev/asm-disk5(linux). And click ASM analyze.

PRM-DUL-DUL50

 

PRM-DUL-DUL51

 

PRM-DUL-DUL52

 

 

 

ASM Files Clone feature will analyze ASM Disk header, in order to finding Disk group file and File Extent Map. All the information is recorded into PRM-DUL embedded database.    PRM-DUL can collect all Metadata, and analyze to show diagram.

 

PRM-DUL-DUL53

 

 

  1. After analysis of ASM Analyze, PRM-DUL will find the file list in Disk groups. Users can select the datafile/archivelog which need to be cloned to destination folder.

 

Click ASM Clone to start…

 

PRM-DUL-DUL54

 

There is progress bar while file cloning.

When using PRM-DUL in ASM of ASMLIB?

Simple and Clear: asmlib related ASM DISK is stored in OS as ll /dev/oracleasm/disks. For example: Add files of /dev/oracleasm/disks into PRM-DUL ASM DISK

CASE 7: DB(stored in ASM) can not be opened

 

One of CRM database in company D can’t be opened due to adding disk which has I/O error into ASM diskgroup. This operation generated some corrupted block in datafile of system tablespace, and user failed to open DB any more.

 

In the circumstance, we can use PRM-DUL ASM Diskgroup to clone all datafile out of ASM.

 

Or, user can also use “Dictionary Mode(ASM)” to recover data from this ASM environment . Steps as below:

 

  1. Recovery Wizard
  2. Dictionary Mode(ASM)
  3. Add ASM DISK (all ASM DISK in your recovery disks)
  4. Click ASM analyze
  5. Select suitable Endian
  6. In ASM analyze, it lists all database file, or click “select all”

Click “load”, following steps are the same with case3

CASE 8: Recover Lost system tablespace in ASM

 

User D deleted system tablespace FILE#=1 datafile and user tablespace. This make  alter database open failed.

In this circumstance, user can use” Non-Dictionary Mode (ASM)” to recover data.

 

Steps as below:

 

  1. Recovery Wizard
  2. Non-Dictionary Mode (ASM)
  3. Add necessary ASM Disk
  4. Click ASM analyze
  5. Select the suitable Endian and Character set. (Manually select character set due to Non-Dictionary Mode)
  6. Select all data file, or click “Select all”
  7. Click “scan”, following steps are the same with Case 3

CASE 9: Recover DROP TABLESPACE Data

 

User D dropped a tablespace(“DROP TABLESAPCE INCLUDING CONTENTS”) by mistake. They want to recover data resided in that tablespace, but there is no RMAN backup.

Therefore, we can use PRM-DUL No-Dictionary mode to recover data. In this way, we can extract most data. However, the data is not mapping to the dictionary. Users need to manually recognize the table. Since it changed data dictionary by DROPPING TABLE and deleted objects in OBJ$, we can not have the relationship between DATA_OBJECT_ID and OBJECT_NAME. Below is the instruction of getting mapping.

Attention: Since it relies on AWR repository, the mapping table is not that accurate and exact.

 

 

 

 

CASE 10: Recover Data after Dropping Table by mistake.

 

User D dropped one most important application table in ASM without any backup. Oracle introduced recyclebin feature in 10g. Please check whether the dropped table is in recyclebin by DBA_RECYCLEBINS view. If there is , try to recover data back by “flashback to before drop”. Or, we can use PRM-DUL for recovery.

Recovery steps by PRM-DUL

  1. OFFLINE the table space that the dropped table locates.
  2. Find the DATA_OBJECT_ID of dropped table by query data dictionary or logminer. If not successfully, then user has to recognize this table in No-dictionary mode.
  3. Start PRM-DUL, go to No-dictionary mode, and add all data files of dropped data file. Then SCAN DATABASE+SCAN TABLE from Extent MAP
  4. Locate the data table by DATA_OBJECT_ID in object tress, and insert data back by DataBridge

We can find the general DATA_OBJECT_ID by logminer or similar method in “CASE 9”

 

 

 

 

 

EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE( LOGFILENAME => ‘/oracle/logs/log1.f’, OPTIONS => DBMS_LOGMNR.NEW);EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE( LOGFILENAME => ‘/oracle/logs/log2.f’, OPTIONS => DBMS_LOGMNR.ADDFILE);Execute DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR(DBMS_LOGMNR.DICT_FROM_ONLINE_CATALOG+DBMS_LOGMNR.COMMITTED_DATA_ONLY);

 

 

SELECT * FROM V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS ;

 

EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.END_LOGMNR;

 

Although, there is no DATA_OBJECT_ID, if the table amount is not big, we can manually recognize the data table

ParnassusData recommend anyone to report bug, just send report_bugs@parnassusdata.com. Suggest submit bug environment, including Java environment and Oracle database Environment.

 

  1. What should I do if it PRM-DUL failed with

Error: no `server’ JVM at `D:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.5.0_22\bin\server\jvm.dll’.

If user just installed JAVA Runtime Environment JRE, no JDK, please start PRM-DUL without –server option. This option does not exist in the version before JRE 1.5, and there is supposed to have an error.

ParnassusData suggests Open JDK 1.6 or above

 

Below link to download JDK 1.6

  1. Why does PRM-DUL display Chinese as messy code?

 

So far, there are two reasons for Chinese encoding problem:

  • The OS does not have Chinese language pack, PRM-DUL can not display Chinese correctly
  • If OS have language package installed, please use Open JDK1.6 or above. There might be some problem in JDK1.4

 

  1. Is there any forum for PRM-DUL?

 

Now we have Chinese forum for PRM-DUL, below is the link:
