This topic lists the errors that you may encounter during Oracle configuration.  

ORACLE_DTC1

Error message: Cannot perform archive log backup. Archive log chain is broken.

Error description: The archive log chain might break because of the following reasons:

  • The archived log sequences are accidentally deleted.
  • The archive logs are not found after the last archive log backup.

Error solution: Perform a full backup to initiate a new archive log chain.

ORACLE_DTC2

Error message: Cannot perform archive log backup. Incarnation is changed.

Error description: The incarnation of the database might change because of the following reasons:

  • A database might be opened with the RESETLOGS option.
  • An attempt is made to undo the effects of the RESETLOGS by restoring backups taken before RESETLOGS.

Error solution: Perform a full backup to initiate a new archive log chain with the latest incarnation.

ORACLE_DTC3

Error message: Cannot perform archive log backup. Resync flag is set.

Error description: This error might occur if the data corruption occurs during the last backup of a database.

Error solution: Perform a full backup to create a baseline for the next incremental and archive log backups.

ORACLE_DTC4

Error message: Oracle instance is not available.

Error description: This error might occur when the Oracle instance does not startup. This might occur if:

  • The SGA requires more space than was allocated for it.
  • The operating system variable pointing to the Oracle instance is improperly defined.

Error solution: Identify the issue on the server and bring up the Oracle instance. Refer to Oracle documentation for more details.

ORACLE_DTC5

Error message: This is a generic RMAN error that occurred on the Oracle server. Check RMAN logs for details.

Error description: This error might occur if an ongoing backup or restore operation fails due to RMAN errors.

Error solution: The following are different failure scenarios and their respective resolutions:

  1. Review the Progress logs or Detailed logs located on the Jobs page to identify any RMAN errors.

  2. If you see the error expected archived log not found, loss of archived log compromises recoverability within the RMAN logs, it might suggest that archive logs for the database are unavailable or expired. In this case, follow these steps:

    • Verify the availability and expiration status of the archive logs by connecting to RMAN and executing the command crosscheck archivelog all. This will display a list of all archive logs alongside their respective statuses.

    • To remove all archive logs marked as expired, run the command  delete expired archivelog all. For additional information, consult Oracle's official documentation. 

    • After executing these steps, initiate the backup again. 

  3. If this error appears when performing a point-in-time recovery on a standby database, it's recommended to execute the recovery on the primary database instead, and subsequently resynchronize it with the standby database.

  4. If you get the parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1 destination string cannot be translated error, perform the following steps:

    1. Provide a valid destination like /home/oracle in the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1 parameter.

    2. Create spfile from pfile and then startup the database.

    3. Retry restoring the database.

  5. If the error persists, please contact support for further assistance.
