Miscellaneous RMAN error messages

20000-20999

RMAN-20000

abnormal termination of job step
Cause: A job step encountered an error and could not recover. This error should be followed by other errors indicating the cause of the problem.
Action: Check the accompanying error.

target database not found in recovery catalog
Cause: target database is not found in the recovery catalog
Action: make sure that the target database is registered in the recovery recovery catalog.

target database already registered in recovery catalog
Cause: target database is already registered in the recovery catalog
Action: if the target database is really registered, there is no need to register it again. Note that the recovery catalog enforces that all databases have a unique DBID. If the new database was created by copying files from an existing database, it will have the same DBID as the original database and cannot be registered in the same recovery catalog.

RMAN-20003

target database incarnation not found in recovery catalog
Cause: resetlogs change# and/or time of the target database doesn't match any database incarnation in the recovery catalog.
Action: if target database was opened with resetlogs option then use 'reset database' to register the new incarnation.

RMAN-20004

target database name does not match name in recovery catalog
Cause: name of the target database doesn't match the one stored in the recovery catalog

RMAN-20011

target database incarnation is not current in recovery catalog
Cause: the database incarnation that matches the resetlogs change# and time of the mounted target database control file is not the current incarnation of the database
Action: If 'reset database to incarnation ' was used to make an old incarnation current then restore the target database from a backup that matches the incarnation and mount it. You will need to do 'startup nomount' before you can restore the control file using RMAN. Otherwise use 'reset database to incarnation ' make the intended incarnation current in the recovery catalog.
