众所周知，我们的核心生产数据库通常都是在归档模式下运行的，更不用说还配置DG环境的了。开启归档，并保证所有归档不丢失，就能保证我们对数据库所做的任何修改不会丢失，归档日志可谓是恢复的根本，如果丢失归档，那么即使RMAN功能再强大，也无法对丢失的数据进行恢复。所以我们通常配置的RMAN策略就是全备+归档+控制文件自动备份。这里的归档不是指数据库创建以来生成的归档(那量也太大了)，而是当进行RMAN非一致性备份时新产生的那部分归档日志，用来保证数据库可以前推到一致性状态，这样才能顺利open数据库。以下的测试只是想说明归档日志对恢复数据的重要性，并没有用到RMAN来进行恢复。
测试一：归档日志健全未丢失

这里进行了3次归档当前日志文件的操作，目的是使online日志被刷新，强制其归档，写到归档日志中去，因为我们要测试的是归档，否则恢复文件时，会自动去online日志中查找，即便是非归档模式，只要online日志还未被刷新，依旧是可以恢复的

可以看到，此时是无法open数据库的，因为数据库文件物理上已经不存在，而在控制文件中是有记录的，这里提示的是“cannot identify/lock data file 6”，而当如果仅仅是物理上存在，数据文件头中的信息与控制文件中记录的数据文件头信息不一致时，会提示xxx文件需要恢复

注意，此时仅仅是创建了一个不一致的datafile 6而已，也可以通过RMAN的restore datafile 6;命令来实现，作用是一样的

当执行auto后，第一个建议的归档位置是174，然后到175、176、177，都没有问题，一直到178，提示文件无法找到，由于178、179、180这3个归档日志被移走了，模拟被删除的情况，数据库无法自动获取到这3个归档日志，也就无法把datafile 6前推到数据库正常关闭前的一致性状态，这个时候想要恢复，就只能通过BBED工具来修改数据文件头信息来实现了，数据库自身以无法完成这个任务，如果这个数据文件对整个数据库而言并不是非常重要，那么可以先offline该文件，然后一致性打开数据库，当然，这个数据文件中的数据也就丢失了

虽然打开了数据库，但测试数据表还是丢失了，丢失了归档，又没有备份过归档，那么丢数据库是在所难免得了，又一次证明了归档对数据恢复的重要性，由于刚才并未真正地删除归档，只是使了一个trick，那么就当我们之前对归档做了个手动备份，现在来恢复丢失的归档（mv回原归档路径）
