NetBackup™ for Oracle Administrator's Guide

Error: Unable to re-create online log

During certain clone operations you may encounter the following error:

ORA-00344: unable to re-create online log
'E:\APP\ORACLE\PRODUCT\19.3\DB_HOME1\RAC_RESTORE2\DATA\CDB19R\ 
ONLINELOG\GROUP_1.264.1126884003'

This error may occur in the following situations:

  • The backup source is ASM and you are cloning to file system using OMF.

  • The backup source is a file system and you are cloning to ASM using OMF.

Cause

NetBackup may not create all of the directories before the clone. This behavior is because the Oracle OMF storage controls the creation of the directories. The exceptions are online redo log location and temp file locations, which you must create manually before the clone operation.

Solution

Before you run the clone operation, create the following directory on the target system. For example:

E:\APP\ORACLE\PRODUCT\19.3\DB_HOME1\RAC_RESTORE2\DATA\CDB19R\ ONLINELOG
