rman从多份备份中还原操作

1、现象重现

虽然整个过程datafile 11恢复成功了，但是在恢复过程中，先是去读取/tmp/11.dbf的copy文件，读取这个文件失败，然后继续使用/tmp/test_full_01mrkqdh_1_1来恢复数据文件，为什么会出现这样的情况呢？

2、原因分析

RMAN> list copy of datafile 11;

--checkpoint time为:2011-11-14 12:44:33，创建时间为:2011-11-18 14:39:09

RMAN> list backup of datafile 11;

--backupset中也有datafile 11
--checkpoint time为:2011-11-14 12:44:33，创建时间为:2011-11-14 12:48:57

--通过比较这两个关于datafile 11的备份时间，rman自动选择了创建时间比较新的备份恢复

RMAN> crosscheck copy of datafile 11;

--通过检测发现/tmp/11.dbf是无效的，所以rman继续使用backupset进行恢复datafile 11

在有些时候，当rman对中关于一个对象的备份有多个(备份时间不一致),rman会从最新备份的开始还原，如果第一个失败，使用下一个备份，但是在有些时候可能第一个失败后，rman不自动使用下一个，这个时候的处理思路是:使用crosscheck backup/copy检测无效的备份，删除掉，继续执行
