10G ora.init and using the orarun RPM
First I have 1 question and 1 comment:
Question: I did a new Install of Oracle 10g on SUSE SLES9, all went well. My question is where and what ORA.INIT file does it use when it starts the DATABASE?
The reason I am asking this is I am trying to setup ARCHIVELOG for STREAMS to move data from one database to another. I have successfully changed the DATABASE itself to be ARCHIVELOG MODE, now I need to do the below:
The reason I ask this, is I modified the ORA.INIT file in my install directory /opt/oracle/product/10g/dbs/ora.init, but it doesn't seem to look at this file on startup. The reason I say this, is I changed to ARCHIVELOG, changed the archive_log_dest=/opt/oracle/product/10g:[oracle.archive] and archive_log_start=true and when I check the parameter files it doesn't show the change.
So finally my question, is what init file or files, does ORACLE 10g use on startup? I'm lost????
Next, this is just a comment or helpful HINT:
Before I did the Install, I downloaded the latest orarun RPM file from NOVELL/SUSE. After the complete install, I noticed that when I did a REBOOT, my DATABASE and LISTNER did not start. I would get the error Insufficent Permissions: After looking and searching everywhere I found no real answer as to why. I then looked at the DBSTART and DBSHUT file and I made changes to the following areas within the files and all is working. Here is what I changed if anybody else is having the same issue:
On each of the lines where is has the CONNECT statement, I modified that line to read:
CONNECT SYS/(YOURPASSWORD) AS SYSDBA
After making these changes and a clean REBOOT all is working well.
By default, starting with 9i, Oracle doesn't use init.ora, but a file called spfile<SID>.ora, normally located in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs. This file is generated at database creation time, a corresponding init.ora can be generated by 'create pfile from spfile;' . It is possible to make changes in this init.ora , use 'create spfile from pfile;' to forward these changes to spfile<SID>.ora .

ORA-01610: recovery using the BACKUP CONTROLFILE option must be done
Hello All,
I have an instance on my LAB server. To explore more avenues in cloning a DB I did the following.
1. On my Oracle 10g Instance I fired an large query which would take atleast an hour to execute.
2. Opened another session and executed shu ABORT to shutdown the above instance abruptly.
3. Took backup of datafiles, archive logs and redologs [ prior to shu abort, I had issued ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE]
Restoration steps:
NOMOUNT with pfile edited to hold the name of the new DB_NAME
Create control file script edited to reflect the new paths of datafile and redologs.
MOunted succesfully.
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;

I didn't find the file it was suggesting so I tried many combinations of providing the right recovery file name :-- All the latest Archive logs and Redologs in my backup.
Still the recovery is not successful. Please let me know how can I recover my DATABASE.
Many thanks in advance.

ValliGreetings,
If I understood, you basically have a copy of a primary database and the redo log archives of this pretty same database, you have backed up the control file of this primary database, edited it pointing all paths of your datafiles to the new location but renaming the instance name.
I am assuming that you have edited the first line of your control file to something like "CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "DB02" RESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG", in this case are you sure that the redolog archives have not loose the sequence? In this case it will ask more and more archives and it will never end, take a look at the date and time of the thread that your instance is asking for recovery. Is your instance a production database? If it is NOT production and you are SURE that the database is completely recovered and is asking for redolog files that does not even exist you can try to add the ALLOWRESETLOGS_CORRUPTION=TRUE to your init.ora and open the db... This solution is not recommended and you should never use it on production instances... take this hint as a LAST effort to bring your db online.

I am trying to get space on an external hard drive which has some old time machine back up files that I do not need but can not eliminate, even by going into the time machine, clicking on the backup file to be eliminated and using the drop down menu with the gear box symbol to eliminate
I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation: What are Local Snapshots? http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots. -

I have always had and used the same Apple ID. I have changed credit card information on my Apple ID account several times though. Does that make a difference when downloading past purchases? I'm very angry at Apple and Itunes because I have been using itunes since 05/2005 and I do not have even close to the amount of songs and albums that I have purchased from itunes. If the credit card info does make a difference even though the account is the same one then itunes needs to make sure to notify users of this because I am not the only one who is wondering this same thing. I have numerous friends who i've talked to about this and they say the same thing, that they too have songs purchased in the past that have disappeared when trying to download past purchased items. It should not make a difference. $12 is $12. Especially since I have ALWAYS used the same account. If itunes does not change their ways, I will not be purchasing songs or anything else for that matter from them ever again. I will go back to buying CDs where I KNOW that it will always be with me and I don't have to deal with this. I will also make sure to find a better more reliable source to download music from and will make sure everyone I know and come in contact with knows what it is and how much better it is than itunes. There should be no experation date on the music I PURCHASE, nor should there be any other little loop holes that allow itunes to rob us of rightfully purchased products. What's the deal itunes??

There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that. You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

Is there any chance that the phones can fall out of sync?
Unlikely. But nothing is impossible. Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.

Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important. -
I am a new iPhone 5s user. I like many of the features it offers. I don't like that I cannot talk and use the internet (if I am away from WI-FI) and this phone is too small. I am actually thinking of returning it and going back to an Android. After all the hassle it took to get all my stuff working on this phone , it may be worth the switch. This phone needs to be able to multitask freely in this day and age. Also Safari is not the best search engine but I could work with it if I could talk and use it at the same time. I use my phone for business and this is a feature that is needed in my line of work.

The iPhone is working, as designed and advertised. In this case, the user failed to educate themselves properly, either by proper research or asking the right questions, before purchasing the device.
I understand that the OP failed to do research. But then, I wasn't replying to the OP. I was replying to Chris. I have Verizon. I can talk and use data at the same time with my Droid Maxx. Therefore, the problem is not just with the network. It would be technically possible for an iPhone to do that on Verizon/Sprint if Apple had chosen to use a different chip, such as the kind other phone manufacturers have elected to use.
Of course, this is probably all irrelevant to the OP's issue. It was merely a point of clarification, especially for those people who are used to being able to use both voice and data at the same time on Verizon. When they switch to an iPhone, they are often surprized at the limitation.
Best of luck. -
I try to open iphoto and it comes up with You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto. I have downloaded photo manager and it's telling me to update but it wont update...
iPhoto is Apple's included program to manage your photo's and pictures.
It receives updates over time with Software updates and new machine or iLife purchases.
When iPhoto gets updated or a newer version is used, it may alter iPhoto support files, but newer iPhoto versions usually always compatible with older files which it then updates.
If you used a newer iPhoto on your iPhoto support files, then they got altered to the newer format, older iPhoto versions can't read the older format.
Somewhere along the line you somehow got a older version of iPhoto on your computer, you need to fine the newer version of iPhoto (not this photo manager, sounds like another program)
Or somewhere along the line you used a newer iPhoto version (like on another Mac) and it altered the iPhoto support files on your older version of iPhoto.
So the key here is to find the newest version of iPhoto and use that to access your iPhoto support files.
If you didn't access your iPhoto support files from another Mac, then you should have the newer iPhoto version on your computer.
Once you find it, and get it in the Dock, you should remove the older iPhoto version from your computer to prevent this from happening again.
Lastly, if the newer version of iPhoto is somehow gone off your computer, you should be able to get a copy off the latest OS X install disk or iLife using a free program called Pacifist.
http://www.charlessoft.com/
Then you need to check for updates for iPhoto in the program itself, the current version is 9.1.2 -
I keep getting this message. What do I do? You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto.

Hy please help...
My husband purchased an iphone at xmas and evrything was fine until i purchased 1 yesterday . We both use the same email address which is linked to our itunes account (ithink) I registered mine yesterday and all my husbands contacts came on to my phone, so i deleted them and he lost them all on his phone :-( now if he adds or deletes anything i get it or the other way round please please helpIf you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted. The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync. You need to use different IDs. You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps. But use different icloud IDs.

Creating a Master virtual hard disk and using the same for all other VM's
Hi,
We would like to create a master virtual hard disk and use the same for all other VM's. Can we do that ?
my requirements :
1) create 10 VM's
2) first create a master virtual hard disk with win OS and use the same to create the 10 VM's.
3) After creating the VM's change the HDD size.
-- if i have created master virtual disk with 500GB , and use the same for creating a virtual machine. can we change the HDD size to 1TB ?
After creating the VM's ,i will change the system names and activate the windows accordingly.
Will there be any implications ,if we can/will do like this.
Thanks.Hi Suren424,
I think Using Differencing Disks may cover your needs .

I have two Apple ID, how can I delete one and use the email address associates to the main one?
If you abandon one of the Apple IDs you will also basically be abandoning any content that you have acquired with that Apple ID. Content can only be updated and re-downloaded with the Apple ID that was used to buy it. Apple will not combine the content of Apple IDs and Apple will not transfer the content from one Apple ID to another Apple ID.
