A strange restore scenario

Hi,
I have a really small 10.2.0.4 database with only one user tablespace called USERS. This tablespace has only one datafile: "/datafiles/users.dbf". The database is not in archive log mode. Two months ago I performed a cold backup of the only file "/datafiles/users.dbf" (I don't have other backups or files). Now I need to restore the old content of tablespace. The problem is that the old file users.dbf has an old SCN respect on other files. My question now is:
What are the actions (supported and not) I can perform to get back data from the old file?

Restore Scenarios when backup was taken on Standby exadata cluster through zfs

I have a question here.
We have a dataguard environment in our exadata clusters. Primary resides on full Rack and standby on half rack. Both x4 and backup are disks to disks through zfs.
The backups are full once a week and incremental afterwards , happens on the standby side per oracle best practice.
However we try to test restore scenarios now and how do we restore the backups to primary?
Thanks in advance.

Hi..
To validate the RMAN backup you need to restore it at some new host server.You can go through
[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmrecov.htm#BRADV908]
You can even use the RMAN validation command.

Backup and Restores scenario

Are my thoughts correct that in the event of a failure, there will always be data loss?
Scenario:
Full backup of database every day at 11:00pm.
Log backup of database every hour.
1/8/2015 full backup completed successfully at 11:00pm, log backup 1/9/2015 at 12:00am, 1:00am, 2:00am completed successfully as well.
If the server goes down on 1/9/2015 2:45am; I can only restore up to 1/9/2015 2:00am, correct? All the data between 2:00am - 2:45am will be lost, correct?
Is there to restore the data?
Thanks.

Would there be data loss or not depends on whether log file is intact or not . If you can take tail log backup and other backups files are valid chances of data loss is very less

Strange Urgent scenario please help!

Hello Friends,
I am having one strange problem in InfoCube loading.
I am loading from 0FI_GL_4 extractor to BW InfoCube with full load.
I have start routine logic in my update rules.I debugged routine several times simulated update from PSA plenty of times.
In debugging and simulation it gives expected results, but when I actually load data to InfoCube it misses some data.
Some data are not showing up in InfoCube.
Please help with your suggestions.
Thanks,
John.

Ajax,
What do you mean by key of the IS.There is no end routine as this is 3.x
Jr Roberto,
The records are cuting down in the start routine, I can see it clearly into the monitor.
But the strange thing to notice is when I debugg code for error records it gives right result and when I load actually it cuts some records.
Thanks for looking into it.

Backup restore scenario problem

Hi Experts,
One of the user accidentally truncated a table(exp_data) in morning. that table is in exp_tab01 tablespace. that tablespace only contains exp_data table. we want to recover that table. backup was taken yesterday.
Flashback doesnt work as table truncated. it says definition changed. we dont want to recover whole database, because database size is more than 1 TB.
our backup mount point doesnt have sufficient space to hold complete database backup at one time. we run are backups in chunks because of space issue.
Is there any way i can just only recover a tablespace?
Thanks in advance.
Dave

Hi,
If you have space constraints on your current production server might be a partial restore and recover on a second server could help out.
Than use data pump to re insert the lost data.
The datafiles needed for the partial restore would be:
select file#
from v$datafile
where ts# in (select ts#
from v$tablespace
where name in ( 'SYSTEM','SYSAUX','EXP_TAB01')
or name like 'UNDO%');

DBCA backup/restore scenario

Greetings Oracle Experts,
I am trying to use DBCA to duplicate database on another machine. Here are the commands used:
# To backup database
dbca -silent -createCloneTemplate -sourceSID $DB_NAME \
    -templateName $DB_NAME -sysDBAPassword $PASSWORD -maintainFileLocations false
# To restore database
dbca -silent -createDatabase -templateName $BACKUP_DB \
    -cloneTemplate -gdbName $SID -sid $SID \
    -sysPassword $PASSWORD -systemPassword $PASSWORD \
    -datafileJarLocation /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/assistants/dbca/templates \
    -characterSet AL32UTF8 -nationalCharacterSet AL16UTF16Here's a few questions I have come across:
1. After restoring the database, all users accounts except SYS and SYSTEM are locked. Is there any way to make user account_status same as the original database in silent mode?
2. When doing restore, I can specify the NLS_CHARACTERSET and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET. Is there any way to make it keep the character set of original database? If I specify the same character set, will there be any conversion (and possibly data loss due to conversion) occurring?
3. What else is different between duplicated database and original database? (ie. File locations, user privileges, etc.)
Appreciate your input and help.
Edited by: user10134531 on Jan 19, 2009 11:40 AM

For backup, we create a template based on source database including all data with dbca. During restore, we create a new database from the template.
The actual command:
Backup:
dbca -silent -createCloneTemplate -sourceSID srcdb -templateName srcdb -sysDBAPassword password -maintainFileLocations falseRestore:
dbca -silent -createDatabase -templateName srcdb -cloneTemplate -gdbName srcdb.domainname -sid srcdb -sysPassword password -systemPassword password -datafileJarLocation $DBCA_TEMPLATE_DIR -characterSet $NLS_CHARACTERSET -nationalCharacterSet $NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET

RMAN restore scenario

I am not using catalog. control file record set to 31days but retain only 1 full backup in disk.
took a backup on 23-may which got deleted from disk as of 28-may. all archive logs taken on 23-may got deleted from disk as well.
Goal : I want to restore validate for 23-may.
I restored the files from tape (both image copies and archive logs).
rman doesn't recognize the archive logs. What is needed to make rman recognize the files restored from tape.
Thanks

Thanks for all your replies. At first I want to validate the backups taken on 23-may and make sure they are recoverable.
rman shows 27-may , 28-may backup as recoverable and archivelogs dated on 27-may and 28-may
RMAN> list backup recoverable;
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog

I've tried to restore on windows 2008 x64 - result is the same.

According to the SCNs your backups (controlfile,datafiles) belong to orphaned incarnation 3, NOT current incarnation 2. But you run the restore process in incarnation 2.
There was obviously a point in time recovery with resetlogs to 09-OCT-10 (Reset_SCN 1578030113), but you want to restore to SCN 2978611044.
Try
reset database to incarnation 3;

Restore RMAN Backup

Dear All,
I am practicing Oracle Restore scenarios on my Oracle 9i database. Once I complete my tests in Oracle 9i I will move up to 10g and then finally to 11g.
Following is my recovery scenario:
1) I did NOT configure Recovery Catalog
2) I would like to restore my databse from a 15 days old backup
3) control_file_record_keep_time is set to 7 days.
4) Backups are on tape.
Can you guys please shed some light on how to I proceed?
- P

In oracle 9i , check , which situation you can perform complete recovery and in which situations you have to select incomplete recovery.

Complex Product Costing Scenario- Separate overhead rates to same material

Hello- I have a strangely complex scenario at my current client.
They wish to apply different overhead rates to the same raw material (one material number in SAP) which is a part of two different BOMs to the same Semi-Finished product (one material number in SAP). This semi-finished product needs to be costed 2 different ways with 2 different BOMs, routings and overhead rates and then i need to use mixed costing to come up with a blended rolled-up cost to update in the material master of the semi-finished product. I am able to get past all challenges but the only open item is to be able to apply different overhead rates to the same material.
Limitations:
1- We have to use Standard price, not moving average.
2- Split valuation idea thrown out the window.
3- Using 2 different material numbers for the raw materials thrown out of the window.
4- Business area idea thrown out of the window.
basically, coming back to the original issue at hand, the challenge is to be able to apply different overhead rates to one material number in SAP.

Hi
There are available,, But you have thrown them out of the window already
I believe you need to rampup your overhead absorption mechanism... if ovh is dependant on the component, then it should remain fixed/.. however, if it is getting changed bsaed on the parent material, then driver is not the component, but the Parent material
hence, your overhead should be based on Parent material... Assign an overhead group to the Parent material say, 100 and 110 to the 2 Parent materials.... Now you maintain separate % of overhead per overhead group.... BASE would be the raw material consumption cost element
@ Subodh: Do you think above suggestion will work?? I think exit need not be used if I have understood his requirement clear

Moving a Photoshop Elements 3.0 Catalog -- Restore Fails

I have tried to use the back-up / restore-to-new-location method to move a PSE 3.0 (Windows XP) catalog from my hard drive to a mounted network drive (Seagate Black Armor NAS 220). The backup works correctly, but the restore doesn't quite work. The files do get copied to the new network drive location appropriately, both using and not using the full former directory structure, but the catalog file that is created still references the original hard drive locations of the files. I also tried this after (finally) adding the PSE 3.0.1 patch as well, with the same results.
It is hard to believe that an issue like this wouldn't have ever been fixed. Has anyone successfully moved a catalog in 3.0/3.0.1 via this method, or has anyone else seen this issue? Are there any fixes or alternate methods out there?
Being that the .psa catalog files are Access databases (in the old versions of PSE), I'm about to try directly updating the catalog file for the correct locations, since I can do it fairly easily (i.e. via SQL instead of file-by-file location updates)., but I still think there has to be a way to do this without resorting to modifying the catalog file directly.
Thanks,

Doug,
First I want to say that I have no idea how effectively PSE 3 will process a catalog or the photo files residing on a Network drive. I mention this explicitly to that you do not interpret any other comments that I make as encouraging you to run from the Network drive with PSE 3.
I have more expereince with this in PSE 4 when periodically using a Backup and Restore scenario to take a catalog and photo files from a desktop machine to an old laptop.
What I did experience was that if photo files were still referenceable at the previous folder location then the PSE 4 Restore command did not update the PSE Catalog pointers to the new folder location. This symptom does appear to be similar to your current problem with PSE 3.
Therefore I changed my process to make the previous folder location not referenceable (even with any automatic adjustments that for userid differences on different machines that PSE Restore would make) before doing the Restore command. That did solve the problem of the catalog pointers to the photo files of the restore not being updated.
In your case, since you say you know how to do the SQL to adjust the catalog database, that might be a good option. Otherwise you could delete what was placed on the Network drive, make the original photo file folders not addressable and then do the PSE 3 Restore again.
A general but I think important comment.
Usually I do not recommend people upgrading to a new version just for the sake of upgrading. However in your case, you are running version 3 (which was the very first version which had the Organizer combined in to Photoshop Elements) and yet you are expanding your use of Windows operating system functions to practices common now but not common for consumers back in 2004 when PSE v3 was first available.
Therfore I suggest that you consider upgrading your version of Photoshop Elements.
I am not saying go to PSE v8. PSE 7 does seems to be still available from reliable sources. Some people still run PSE 5.

Can iphone ios get virus and will system restore fix it

there has being discussions and news stating that there few ios viruses lurking in the internet, I was wondering if Iphone ios can get virus and if it can, will system restore solve the problem
Im suspicious because I went to a site that i cant remember and it took a long time to load, then was a aadvertisement that look like a app introduction in app store, i accidenally clicked the download button so i quickly closed the window after 2 seconds of loading.
Thankyou for your support
Also bonus question-please tell me why cant i start the Game Total war battles:shogun with out an internet connection, with out it will crush

There are no known viruses that can affect or infect a non-jailbroken iOS device. If it has not been jailbroken you cannot alter or write to the operating system. So that should not be a worry for you.
There are websites that have some nasty behavior and will try and capture information or leave things like cookies behind that affect your web browser. With iOS, again, there isn't much to worry about. And stopping a download before it finished should leave you in good condition.
You can always, if things get strange, restore your system from a clean backup if you have backed up to iCloud or iTunes on a computer. You can go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Settings which will leaver your apps intact but clear your settings, which you will have to go back and make sure you have your WiFi, etc set correctly, but that isn't necessary unless you start seeing a lot of strange behavior.
Clean up operation easily by doing a reboot - hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears.
The bonus question - I don't do gaming so cannot offer any help with that issue.

Restore BizTalk Servers on the same SQL Server

Hi
If I need to do a recovery of the BizTalk databases to a point in time before a hardware failure on the same SQL Server, how do I achive this?I have seen the only recommended method is to use log shipping, but is this to restore Databases onto another SQL
Server? If I just want to restore all Databases onto the same server, how would I achive this.
Thanks in advance

The only supported Backup/Restore scenario for BizTalk Server, is using the SQL Agent job:
Backup BizTalk Server (BizTalkMgmtDb)
If you had this job running before the hardware failure, it will have backed up your databases both Full and Log (Differential).
Use these backup files for restore, just as you normally would when restoring SQL Server databases.

TS4036 iCloud restore problems

Got a replacement phone and iCloud keeps telling me it lost the Internet connection and won't back up. Is it a phone setting or defect? There is no problem with the wifi signal.

I fixed this issue after a lot of time and pain (see below)
Seems to have come up on various threads so it seems to be an issue and should be escalated by Apple. They were none the wiser at the genius bar apart from telling me the iCloud backup is probably corrupted and I should call Apple care (as if that is going to do anything)

I experienced the same problem with the iCloud restore not working properly. I had my iPhone 4 replaced as the home button was defective. When attempting to restore an 9.5GB iCloud backup from the day before it just would not work properly. Firstly, half my apps did not restore, they would begin to download showing the progress indicator then just disappear, leaving my home screen naked. No big deal as apps can be downloaded again.
However, what was a big deal for me was the 1,625 photos on my camera roll, including many of the first year of my kid's life. The camera roll would say downloading x of 1,625 photos, download a few of them, then simply stop downloading any new shots. When I would restart the phone it did not show any downloading message, it believed the restore was complete. I tried about ten different restore scenarios, listed below, all of which gave me varying results (some resulting in all my apps restoring) but all of which would only give me some of my photos back.
What was a comfort was that I once got about 700 of the shots back. So the photos were still in the cloud rather than gone and this indicated that it was the restore process or the iCloud backup on my phone that was the problem. These are the things I tried in sequence as I despairingly tried to get my photos back...
Things I tried that DID NOT work
1) Erase all settings and attempt to restore again from scratch (four times)
2) Tried the restore from a different WiFi network (once)
3) Tried the restore from one WiFi network then switched to another once the restore 'hung' (once)
4) Tried the restore from an Apple store WiFi network (once)
5) Tried the restore from a previous iCloud backup (twice)
6) Had Apple replace the iPhone 4 (once)
With all of these I got a varying amount of my photos and apps back before it stopped restoring. I was also making the mistake (I learnt afterwards) of opening and moving between apps during the download to check progress.
Thing I tried that DID work
1) Did not plug the phone into my MacBook, I used the wall charger only to prevent any iTunes sync activity
2) Erase all settings and data, restore from the iCloud backup and input passwords in all the pop up windows once it reboots.
2) Open photos app gallery to see photos downloading and show the progress message "downloading xx of x,xxx"
3) Left it on this photo screen and did not touch the phone at all for the entire restore. I did not close the photo galley/camera roll app once, open any other apps.
Finally this time round it work and all my photos and apps restored in full. I am going to go back to syncing with iTunes as I don't trust iCloud for restores. It seems that iCloud does not handle photo restores that well, especially if the gallery is large. In short: Wall charger only, restore from iCloud, open Photos app, don't touch. Really hope this works for you too if you've had the same issue.
