Backup CDB and PDBs

Introduction of Multitenant Architecture In this article, we will see how we can take RMAN backup of whole CDB and for the single pluggable database. To take RMAN backup of the whole CDB we can simply take backup by connecting to target as container database and backup database command. Let us see by example : CDB […]

Establish Connection in CDB and PDB

When it comes to Multi-tenant architecture,  one question that comes to our mind is how to connect to container database and pluggable database. Today we will see all possible way to connect to the container database. Obviously, we connect database using service name for the non-local connection. When we create CDB, a service is created […]

Plugging Non-CDB to CDB

In this article, we will see how we can plug the Non-CDB database as a Pluggable Database in a Container Database. Step 1: Check non-cdb Database SQL> SELECT NAME,OPEN_MODE,CDB FROM V$DATABASE; NAME OPEN_MODE CDB ——— ——————– — NCDB READ WRITE NO Step 2: Gracefully shut down Non-CDB database and open it in READ ONLY stage […]
