使用RMAN备份时应如何处置归档日志文件

昨天去某客户部署RMAN备份，在跑shell脚本的时候，提示找不到归档日志，因为客户那里之前只对数据库做EXPDP逻辑导出备份，并且每

-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 606k sep 24 12:00 ora10g-4175411955_20140924_859118422_297.arc

-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 166M Sep 24 12:02 ora10g-4175411955_20140924_859118425_298.db

-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 610K Sep 24 12:02 ora10g-4175411955_20140924_859118562_299.arc

-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 7.3M Sep 24 12:02 ora10g-c-4175411955-20140924-01.ctl

可以看到，，备份全部完成了，共生成了2个归档日志备份集（arc），1个数据库备份集(db)以及控制文件备份集（ctl），这里有个细节要注意，由于我在脚本中写入了%s参数，从上面生成备份集生成的时间以及顺序可以发现RMAN备份这样一个顺序：

1. 对现有可以备份的数据库归档日志文件做一个备份

2. 对数据库进行备份

3. 切换一下日志，对完成全库备份后的归档日志再做一个备份（即使你没有通过RMAN> sql "alter system archive log current";来手动切）

4. 对控制文件备份（包括spfile，生成在同一个备份集）

我们可以看一下详细的日志输出，来对这个顺序有更深刻的了解：
