Oracle rman backup schedule after a failed level 1 incremental backup - oracle

I created rman backup level 0 on monday -> succeeded , level 1 on tuesday -> succeeded
,level 1 on wednessday -> failed
My doubts are
1)after the failed schedule which level (0/1/cumulative) of backup i have to take to make sure my database integrity ?
2)Shall I need to keep the failed schedule data or I can delete ?

Q1. For integrity checking using rman> validate database
Q2. Configure retention policy and have rman clean obsolete backup for you.

I lost the redologs files from my test database due to a disk error

I lost the redologs files from my test database due to a disk error, when trying to open the database it presents the error below:
ORA-01589: you must use RESETLOGS or NORESETLOGS option to open bd
When executing the command
alter database open resetlogs;
another error occurs:
ERROR on line 1:
ORA-01194: File 1 Needs More Recovery to Be Consistent
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/u02/DATA/GDQUA/datafile/system01.dbf'
Running:
recover database;
Give the error:
ORA-00283: Recovery session canceled due to errors
ORA-01610: Recovery must be performed using the BACKUP CONTROLFILE option
Can you guys help me with this?
Befor you open database with resetlogs,you need set "_ALLOW_RESETLOGS_CORRUPTION" parameter to ‘true’.
ALTER SYSTEM SET "_ALLOW_RESETLOGS_CORRUPTION"=TRUE SCOPE=SPFILE;

Back up Oracle db gives error

RMAN-06149: cannot BACKUP DATABASE in NOARCHIVELOG mode
I'm very new to Oracle, so I couldn't solve this problem myself. Can you tell me how to fix this? Thanks.
You cannot backup the archivelogs because you are in 'NOARCHIVELOG' mode. When your database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode, the only way to back it up with RMAN is to shut it down and do a cold backup.
If you want to put your database into archive log mode, as DBA from a sqlplus command prompt:
shutdown immediate;
startup mount;
alter database archivelog;
alter database open;

RMAN Duplicate Target Database ORA-19511: Error received from media manager layer

I am trying to build a standby database in a Data Guard configuration using RMAN Duplicate Target Database For Standby Dorecover.
All the rman backupsets are there in Netbackup and I can see the inventory of backup pieces using the RMAN views.
However, the Duplicate Target Database command is failing with:
channel p4: starting datafile backup set restore
channel p4: restoring control file
channel p4: reading from backup piece c-2404308342-20160306-02
channel p4: ORA-19870: error while restoring backup piece c-2404308342-20160306-02
ORA-19507: failed to retrieve sequential file, handle="c-2404308342-20160306-02", parms=""
ORA-27029: skgfrtrv: sbtrestore returned error
ORA-19511: Error received from media manager layer, error text:
Backup file <c-2404308342-20160306-02> not found in NetBackup catalog
Basically, the backup pieces are there, but RMAN/Netbackup is saying that they are not there.
Do you know why?
Thank you.
Please try validating the restore with a validate restore command. It should take some time but will notify you of any backup corruptions.
e.g. RMAN > restore database validate;
Thanks

Oracle 11g ORA-00205: error in identifying control file, check alert log for more info

I've been having this problem for more than 4 days, I've tried to fix it but it persists!
The content of the log file $ORACLE_HOME/log/diag/rdbms/<sid>/<SID>/trace/alert_SID.log is:
SQL > ALTER DATABASE MOUNT;

Checker run found 1 new persistent data failures
check init.ora file(spfile.ora) and check ALL controlfiles listed here. There should be at least three of them. Then exclude the missiin one form the list and try to start the database. You should also check sizes and dates of all control files.
Your goal is to find at least one usable copy of controlfile to start the database.
create pfile='/tmp/init.ora' from spfile;
then edit this init.ora file.
startup database pfile='/tmp/init.ora' nomount;
alter database mount;
alter database open;
You have to sync init.ora with valid controlfiles you have on the disk.
Check their permissions, sizes, modification dates.

Unable to sync with Oracle Standby database

I have created a standby database on Windows machine with version 10.2.0.1
For the first time for the database to sync I have copied the archive from the primary database. But on the switch from the primary database. The archive log doesn't ship to the standby database.

Earlier I took the cold backup to move the files.
