When a failure occurs within an Oracle 12c database, a restore or recovery operation needs to take place. Using RMAN restore operations database, you can restore tablespaces, control files, redo log, and the server parameter file if they are corrupted or lost within the database. This course will discuss and show how to perform the different types of restore operations, including when the database is in ARCHIVELOG or NOARCHIVELOG mode. It will also show how to recover from the loss of control files and password files, redo log files, as well as how to restore a database to a new host and perform disaster recovery. This course will also describe what Oracle Secure Backup is and how it can be integrated with RMAN to perform backups and restores. This course is one of a series in the Skillsoft learning path that helps prepare the learner for the Backup and Recovery portion of the Oracle exam 1Z0-063, Oracle Database 12c: Advanced Administration.
