Creating RMAN Backup Catalog

It can soud repetitive, but always good to have notes about 🙂

1. Create Schema for Catalog on CatalogDB:

-- Create the user
create user RMAN_MYDB identified by &PASS;
-- Grant/Revoke role privileges
grant recovery_catalog_owner to RMAN_MYDB;
-- Grant/Revoke system privileges
grant create session to RMAN_MYDB;

2. Create catalog and register database:

-- Conected to target Database via RMAN
RMAN> connect catalog rman_mydb/password@catdb.grepora.net:1521/catalogdb

connected to recovery catalog database

RMAN> CREATE CATALOG;

recovery catalog created

RMAN> REGISTER DATABASE;

database registered in recovery catalog
starting full resync of recovery catalog
full resync complete

Well done!
