Adobe online backup question

I have adobe online BU for my photos on PSE8 and I want to download to PSE 11 on my new Mac? Any thoughts or sugestions

Are you saying you have PSE 8 in windows and you want to move your organizer photos and catalog to PSE 11 on the mac? The thing is that catalogs are only cross-platform compatible starting with PSE 9, so your best bet would be to install PSE 11 in windows and do a full backup to a removable drive, then restore to the mac.

April 2015 Pricing change for Azure Online Backup questions

The webpage for Azure Online Backup pricing indicates that for protected devices over 5GB/month there will be a new model (i.e. free workloads are still free).
It indicates that its $10 per instance protected in 500GB blocks + storage.
The functional thing about azure online backup was the predicable model - As long as I monitored storage I knew what I would be paying since all other costs were included. The "+ storage" doesn't really give me any idea what will be billed.
Now the question is how complex is it?
What is the storage type? Blob? Page Blob/Disk?
What is the geo status? LRS, ZRS? GRS?
Do I pay for ingress, egress? Express-Route traffic?
Is there storage transaction fees?
The pricing web page really needs to provide a more complete set of info that what is currently there.
thanks!

Adobe online backup/sync not working anymore

For several months now I have been unable to do the online backup/sync. I get a message that the system is "detecting changes" in either my online storage or Elements 10 on my PC. But nothing gets resolved. I have 136 Gb online, and about 15 Gb showing as "pending" but I can't get things to sync up. Please help....????!!!!

Ubuntu 2014 LTS - (offline vs. online) Backup questions

Hey guys,
I have a brand new Ubuntu LTS machine and can back it up properly.
But I don't understand why the machine is offline within DPM.
What I have is a small test System of Ubuntu Server 04.2014 LTS and i installed the
VSS Snapshot daemon –
"This daemon is required to create live Linux virtual machine backups."
and KVP daemon as well.
Following the TechNet entry:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn531029.aspx
Live virtual machine backup
2012 R2
√ Note 3, 4, 5
So I'm not sure where the Problem is. Shouldn't the machine visible as online due to creation a protection Group of DPM?
Everytime I'm creating a recovery Point and run a backup the machine is still online and I couldn't see an offline behavior which i would expect (save state).
May I understand something wrong? Is there a backup guy here who has more Expertise with Debian and or ubuntu machines and can give me a hint?
P.S.
guest Services are enabled and the usual stuff like rebooting and dynamic Memory seems to be working very well.
I have also an VMM 2012 R2 running but I'm pretty sure there shouldn't be a problem?!

Hi,
<snip>
Everytime I'm creating a recovery Point and run a backup the machine is still online and I couldn't see an offline behavior which i would expect (save state).
>snip<
At the time of adding the VM to protection, DPM queries the hyper-V writer on the Hyper-V host to get a list of guests and their backup state (caption). At the time, that state reported (offline) so that is what was used in DPM UI. If the machine
later can be backed up in (online) state, then it will be backed up online, but the DPM UI is still going to show (offline). To make the DPM UI show online, you need to stop protection, retain the replica, then reprotect. At that time hyper-V writer
will report (online) and DPM UI will reflect going forward.
To list hyper-V writer captions for guests to see if online or offline state backups will be done:
From an administrative command prompt on the Hyper-V server:
a. Type: copy con script.txt and press enter
b. Type: list writers and press enter
c. Press CTRL + Z + enter (to save)
d. Type: diskshadow /s script.txt | find /i "caption: O"
Output will be displayed for each guest as follows.
C:\temp>diskshadow /s script.txt | find /i "caption: O"
                        - Caption: Online\SCS2012R2-DC
                        - Caption: Online\SQLSERVER
                        - Caption: Offline\MJLC-WSS-V14
                        - Caption: Offline\MJLC-DPM2012Sp1

I can't make a DVD backup copy of my Adobe Online Storage

I can't make a DVD backup copy of my Adobe Online Storage File. How do you do it?
David

Hello David,
I would suggest to use the Adobe Media Downloader to download your images
Click here to archive your Photoshop.com library so you do not lose any files.
You will be asked to download an Adobe Air application called Media Downloader.
Then you can use your Dvd buring software to make a back up of your images
Thanks

Question: Will online backup impact database performance for DB6 V9.1

Dear All,
I would like to know will online backup impact the database performance? for eg: access will be slower if online backup is currently running. Appreciate if someone can shed some light on this as i'm new to DB6.
I know for oracle it will impact due the performance due to tablespace are locked in backup mode and this will increaes I/O load due to every block is written to redo log during backup instead of just the changes.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Cheers,
Nicholas Chang.

Hello Nicholas,
Here is some additional information on throttling utilities such as online backups:
SET UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY command
Changes the impact setting for a running utility. Using this command, you can:
throttle a utility that was invoked in unthrottled mode
unthrottle a throttled utility (disable throttling)
reprioritize a throttled utility (useful if running multiple simultaneous throttled utilities)
Scope
Authorization
One of the following:
sysadm
sysctrl
sysmaint
Required connection
Instance. If there is more than one partition on the local machine, the attachment should be made to the correct partition. For example, suppose there are two partitions and a LIST UTILITIES command resulted in the following output:
ID = 2
Type = BACKUP
Database Name = IWZ
Partition Number = 1
Description = online db
Start Time = 07/19/2007 17:32:09.622395
State = Executing
Invocation Type = User
Throttling:
Priority = Unthrottled
Progress Monitoring:
Estimated Percentage Complete = 10
Total Work = 97867649689 bytes
Completed Work = 10124388481 bytes The instance attachment must be made to partition 1 in order to issue a SET UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY command against the utility with ID 2. To do this, set DB2NODE=1 in the environment and then issue the instance attachment command.
Command syntax
>>-SET UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY FORutility-idTOpriority----><
Command parameters
utility-id
ID of the utility whose impact setting will be updated. IDs of running utilities can be obtained with the LIST UTILITIES command.
TO priority
Specifies an instance-level limit on the impact associated with running a utility. A value of 100 represents the highest priority and 1 represents the lowest priority. Setting priority to 0 will force a throttled utility to continue unthrottled. Setting priority to a non-zero value will force an unthrottled utility to continue in throttled mode.
Examples
The following example unthrottles the utility with ID 2.
SET UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY FOR 2 TO 0
The following example throttles the utility with ID 3 to priority 10. If the priority was 0 before the change then a previously unthrottled utility is now throttled. If the utility was previously throttled (priority had been set to a value greater than zero), then the utility has been reprioritized.
SET UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY FOR 3 TO 10
Relationship between UTIL_IMPACT_LIM and UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY settings
The database manager configuration parameter util_impact_lim sets the limit on the impact throttled utilities can have on the overall workload of the machine. 0-99 is a throttled percentage, 100 is no throttling.
The SET UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY command sets the priority that a particular utility has over the resources available to throttled utilities as defined by the util_impact_lim configuration parameter. (0 = unthrottled)
Using the backup utility as an example, if the util_impact_lim=10, all utilities can have no more than a 10% average impact upon the total workload as judged by the throttling algorithm. Using two throttled utilities as an example:
Backup with util_inpact_priority 70
Runstats with util_impact_priority 50
Both utilities combined should have no more than a 10% average impact on the total workload, and the utility with the higher priority will get more of the available workload resources. For both the backup and runstats operations, it is also possible to declare the impact priority within the command line of that utility. If you do not issue the SET UTIL_IMPACT_PRIORITY command, the utility will run unthrottled (irrespective of the setting of util_impact_lim).
To view the current priority setting for the utilities that are running, you can use the LIST UTILITIES command.
Usage notes
Throttling requires that an impact policy be defined by setting the util_impact_lim configuration parameter.

How does recovery work after an online backup

Hello,
While trying to conceptually understand how backup and recovery works, I came accross a question concerning hot (online) backup.
This is a conceptual question (I am trying to understand how things work), it is not a "how should I proceed/ what should I do step by step" question.
As far as I understand, an online backup of a tablespace can be performed by copying the OS files making up a tablespace while the database is up and being used (i.e. transactions are modifying data in the database). Before the copying of the OS files starts, the Oracle RDMS must be notified that an online backup is being taken via "ALTER...BEGIN BACKUP" (such that some additional information is written to the Redo Log, which may be required for subsequent recovery using the online backup). During recovery the Oracle RDBMS uses the copies of the OS files together with the online and archived redo logs in order to reconstruct all committed transactions and it further uses the UNDO tablespace to rollback open (uncommitted) transactions.
Thinking about this, it seems to me, that in order for this to work in all possible scenarios the undo information from the time the backup was taken may be required. Therefore backup of the UNDO tablespace should be taken as well (see the explanation for this assumption below). However browsing the internet (including the Oracle online documentation) I did not find any statements concerning the backup of the UNDO tablespace when an online backup is taken. Moreover I couldn't figure out when exactly such a backup of the UNDO tablespace must be done, to ensure that the database can be recovered in all scenarios.
I believe that undo information from the time the hot backup was taken may be required e.g. in the following scenario:
Assume we are taking a hot backup of a given tablespace, i.e. we are copying all OS files that make up this tablespace, while the database is potentially being used. Let D1 be one of the datafiles in our tablespace and let transaction T1 modify datafile D1. Let transaction T1 further be uncommitted while the copy of datafile D1 is being made and let (at least some of) the changes from T1 be included in the backup copy D1' of D1 (because DBWR has already written the modified blocks at the time they were being copied to the backup). Let transaction T1 be rolled back after the copy is completed. D1' will thus contain modifications from T1, while D1 will not.
Now some time later the datafile D1 is lost. When recovering D1 from the copy D1', the (archived) redo logs will be applied to D1'. Before that, transaction T1 should be rolled back in the copy D1', because modifications from T1 must not appear in the recovered version of the database.
I do however not understand, where the information to rollback transaction T1 exactly comes from. It may still be in the current UNDO tablespace. I do however assume that rollback information is not kept in the UNDO tablespace forever. I see three possible answers to this
(a) There are some requirements which I missed so far to backup the UNDO tablespace whenever a hot backup is made.
(b) Since the Oracle "RDBMS" has to be notified that an online backup is being done, it might store all relevant undo information (e.g. write it to the redo log) when the tablespace is put in backup mode.
(c) There are situations when recovery is not possible due to "missing old UNDO information".
Answer (b) seems the most plausible to me. I did however not find any confirmation of this and if (b) really is the answer, I would be interested to understand what information is stored where by the Oracle RDMBS and how it is used for recovery.
To summarize I have the following questions:
(I) Is there any requirement to backup the UNDO tablespace together with an online backup of a tablespace, and if so, where is this stated in the Oracle documentation?
(II) What mechanisms ensure that uncommitted transactions can be cleared from the online copy of a tablespace (potentially a long time after the copy was taken)?
(III) Do you know any links (Oracle documentation or other online resources) explaining these datails?
Thank you for any hints and answers
kind regards
Martin

Its a highly technical question and I can be completely wrong due to my very less knowledge but I would attempt to answer still. Hope I say something sensible so bear with me.
As far as I understand, an online backup of a tablespace can be performed by copying the OS files making up a tablespace while the database is up and being used (i.e. transactions are modifying data in the database).Correct. But it would depend on the tool you are going to use to do so.Using o/s level commands like CP and all would require you to manually copy the files to the backup location. Using RMAN, it would be lot easier and RMAN would take care of everything.
Before the copying of the OS files starts, the Oracle RDMS must be notified that an online backup is being taken via "ALTER...BEGIN BACKUP" (such that some additional information is written to the Redo Log, which may be required for subsequent recovery using the online backup). Again, this is a requirement only in the case of user-managed backup . In that case, because of the fractured block issue , its important that the corresponding older information/image of the buffer is also copied in the redo stream and that's done when the begin backup command is used. Using RMAN, this is not needed as RMAN can read the consistent image which it would store in the backup piece, exactly in the same way in which select request is fulfilled by oracle for a dirty buffer which is yet to be made consistent.
During recovery the Oracle RDBMS uses the copies of the OS files together with the online and archived redo logs in order to reconstruct all committed transactions and it further uses the UNDO tablespace to rollback open (uncommitted) transactions.Correct!
Thinking about this, it seems to me, that in order for this to work in all possible scenarios the undo information from the time the backup was >taken may be required. Therefore backup of the UNDO tablespace should be taken as well (see the explanation for this assumption below). >However browsing the internet (including the Oracle online documentation) I did not find any statements concerning the backup of the UNDO >tablespace when an online backup is taken. Moreover I couldn't figure out when exactly such a backup of the UNDO tablespace must be done, to >ensure that the database can be recovered in all scenarios.The reason that its not a must to do so is that if the transaction is yet active, there is no way that Oracle would overwrite the Undo information of it, even if you may come after 100 years, it would be there. The Undo segment would mark those blocks as active undo blockswhich contains the information of that transaction whose status within the transacton table of that undo segment is still marked as active. So its there all the time in the undo tablespace. Now, for an instance, let's assume that the undo is not there as well( it would be but let's assume), the changes made to the undo segment's blocks are also recored in the redo as its just a change happening to any other segment like EMP,DEPT except with the difference that its not done by you but by oracle. So using that information, in the future , if there would be a need to replay those changes, necessary information to do so can be brought up from the redo blocks stored in the redo/archive logs. Yes, if there would be pending transactions that would require Undo information to get them rolled back and you have lost Undo tablespace and have no backup of it , you wont be able to bring back the database as it would be inconsistent and oracle would not let you to do it. In that case, you may require to use hacks to get it up and that would be really tricky situation.
(I) Is there any requirement to backup the UNDO tablespace together with an online backup of a tablespace, and if so, where is this stated in the Oracle documentation?As I said above, it must be there if you are anticipating loss of Undo tablespace. If you have lost it, you would need a backup and all the archive logs and redo logs to recover and get it back to the point where the current database is . Rest, oracle would take care as it would reapply the redo contents of the undo segments over the undo segment and get it consitent.
(II) What mechanisms ensure that uncommitted transactions can be cleared from the online copy of a tablespace (potentially a long time after the copy was taken)?As I said , pending transaction's undo is never overwritten by Oracle. Its always kept and marked as active undo . Only a transaction end would make it elgible to get overwritten and that too won't happen immediately(undo_retention would kick in) .
(III) Do you know any links (Oracle documentation or other online resources) explaining these datails?I have to see if its there some where step by step mentioned and I shall update the reply once I shall find the link. Hoep someone else in the meantime finds it .

Online Backup of supported Linux VM on Hyper-V 2012 R2 / SC DPM 2012 R2

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a lab environment:
Win 2012 R2 with Hyper-V
running 2 Linux Machines:
Linux2 - CentOS 6.4 with manually installed Linux Integration services 3.4
Linux3 - CentOS 6.4 without LIS (should be already included in CentOS)
Another machine running Win 2012 R2 Server with SC DPM 2012 R2
but both VMs show as "Offline" when trying to back them up via DPM. Tried local Windows Server Backup with the same result.
I am able to backup the VMs "offline" (pausing the VM, taking snapshot, resume VM) but according to MS, SC DPM 2012 R2 should be able to do Online backups for supported Linux VMs (http://blogs.technet.com/b/virtualization/archive/2013/07/24/enabling-linux-support-on-windows-server-2012-r2-hyper-v.aspx)
The only things in the EventLog are these:
A storage device in 'Linux3' loaded but has a different version from the server. Server version 6.0 Client version 4.2 (Virtual machine ID 4F5CDDD8-B855-41CF-83B2-772C1B99090D). The device will work, but this is an unsupported configuration.
This means that technical support will not be provided until this problem is resolved. To fix this problem, upgrade the integration services. To upgrade, connect to the virtual machine and select Insert Integration Services Setup Disk from the Action menu.
Any Ideas ?
Thanks

Hi,
That list would need to come from the Windows hyper-v group, they are responsible with adding the feature to the integration components for various Linux OSes. DPM just backs up whatever the hyper-V writer presents to us, if the guest supports
online, we back it up online, if not hyper-V saves the guest before the VSS snapshot is taken and DPM takes the backup from the saved state.
NEW NOTE ADDED 1-29-14: Windows group just released “Linux Integration Services Version 3.5 for Hyper-V”. The
document mentions that some versions of Red Hat and CentOS are now
supported to do online backup.
Live virtual machine backup support
======================
RHEL/CentOS 6.0-6.3
RHEL/CentOS 5.7-5.8
RHEL/CentOS 5.5-5.6
ADDTL NOTES: If there are open file handles during a live virtual machine backup operation, the backed-up virtual hard disks (VHDs) might have to undergo a file system consistency check (fsck) when restored.
Live backup operations can fail silently if the virtual machine has an attached iSCSI device or a physical disk that is directly attached to a virtual machine (“pass-through disk”).

What is the best online backup for OS 10.5.8? And if I Reinstall OS will I have problems?

My old Mac has had the flashing question mark file on a blue screen. I waited a couple days, turned it back on and it worked. However, in between that time I went and bought a new Macbook Air. I am relieved to have all of my pics and docs back. I need a good online backup. I downloaded BackBlaze Backup but it is taking forever and I am not sure if it's the best choice.
My plan is to backup all of my files and then wipe my computer clean with the install disks and give my computer to my little sister. So, my question is two fold; which is best online backup and will I have any issues wiping clean the computer and doing a reinstall? For example, will all the updates still be available? What is the best thing for me to do?
Thank you : )

Just understand it gets pretty expensive after you exceed the free space. 2-5 GBs isn't much space.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
     used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
     requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
     drive being backed up.
3. Time Machine requires a backup drive that is at least double the
     capacity of the drive(s) it backs up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined. It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.) You can purchase hard drives separately. This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice. Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available. You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports. I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.) You can find enclosures at places such as;
1. Cool Drives
2. OWC
3. WiebeTech
4. Firewire Direct
5. California Drives
6. NewEgg
All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover. Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.

Adobe XI send for shared review is missing option for Adobe online services, where did it go?

I am using Adobe XI and trying to share a PDF file using Comments --> Review ---> Send for Shared Review. The option to share via Adobe Online Services is missing. What is causing this and how do I get that option back? I am working on a Mac in Safari. Screen shot below:

With Acrobat Pro 11.0.06 I have send more 188 files for shared review with deadline in June.
After the update (automatically in May) to 11.0.07 Monday June, 2 became a cold shower to me:
1) to start a new Acrobat.com-based shared review was not possible anymore
2) tracking of my 188 reviews was not possible anymore, "no active reviews" = empty tracking list !!
My temporary solution: uninstall 11.0.07 and reinstall 11.0.00 with NO automatic updating: stop updating at version 11.0.06.
Result: the tracking list is filled with all items.
Earlier this year Adobe announced end of life of Acrobat.com-based shared reviews at the end of this year 2014.
My question to Adobe: how long is this type of shared review supported ?
My complete workflows are based on it.

Please, please tell me how to sign out of adobe online.

I do not need an adobe online account. I though I was updating acrobat when I downloaded a program from your site. Some of my features appeared to be lost after that, but there was a suggestion to sign in to adobe online. I thought I had to do that to get the features I was used to using (extract pages, etc.). Turns out I was in a new program: Reader. I did not need to be signed in on line at all. I think I clicked keep me signed in. I do not want to be signed in. I also gave you my email address and real birthday. I do not want adobe online to have that or track me. Please tell me (1) how to sign out of adobe online, (2) not be tracked by adobe; and (3) get my real birthday out of your records. Thank you.

This is a user to user forum, not a way of addressing Adobe. As to your specific questions, I don't know what you mean by "Adobe on line", so I cannot suggest how to sign out of it. And I don't know of any commercial firm that will agree to completely erase all your data from their records, so I wouldn't expect you to find any way to acomplish what you ask in (2) and (3).

Actions to be performed after a online backup restore

Hello Guru's,
I have an online backup of a system.
(AIX - ORACLE)
If I restore the backup using Tivoli Storage Manager I still have to perform some actions to recover the database.
I have read through the SAP documentation and it seems I can restore the logs using brtools (brrecover).
My questions actually is, which option do I have to take if I want to apply the offline archive logs as far as possible ?
"Complete database recovery" of "database point in time recovery" ?
I want to make sure that only the archivelogs are being applied and that the database restore is not peformed again.
Thank you all !
bye
BUD

Hello Hans,
> and it seems I can restore the logs using brtools (brrecover).
If you only want to restore your archivelogs, then use brrestore.
brrecover is for recovering the database, not for restoring.
Take a look at here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/88/cadaca94734ae5b8ea3491f615741b/content.htm
and here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0d/d3077b4a0c11d182b80000e829fbfe/content.htm
> My questions actually is, which option do I have to take if I want to apply the offline archive logs as far as possible ?
> "Complete database recovery" of "database point in time recovery" ?
In this case you have to do an incomplete database recovery or in other words called "point in time recovery". For the difference between these two restore types take a look at the oracle documentation:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/intro004.htm#i1016863
After you have restored your archive logs you can perform the recovery manually:
> SQL> recover database using backup controlfile until cancel;
> SQL> cancel;
> SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
Btw.as you are using TDP for SAP you can use backfm to restore only some several files.

Stefan

Restore Online Backup in SCDPM 2012 R2

Dear all,
i have a question on SCDPM 2012 R2 + Azure Backup.
i had deployed such solution and disk backup are perfect! However, i had configured online backup policy to Azure Backup since February and i noticed i do not have the options to allow me to perform online restore!
Below is my online protection policy:
i believe i configured it correct to adhere below policy:
- perform a monthly backup and keep for ONE year
- perform a yearly backup and keep for SEVEN years
but when i go to recovery tab, it just doesnt show February backup, nor March 2nd have any backup. all the backup available are disk short term of 30 days.

Hi DeVaLiaN,
Thanks for posting here!
Each DPM backup to Azure Backup is a recovery point. With an Azure current limit of 366 recovery points your retention time for all backups shouldn’t exceed the 366 limit. In other words the retention times you set for you daily + weekly + monthly
+ yearly backups should sum up to 366 or less.
You might want to double check your configuration.
Refer to the below listed articles which might help you narrow down the issue.

Online backup for eMac? And what about Skype?

I recently had a bad crash. Had to do a clean install of OS X 10.4.11. For some reason Carbonite won't serve the Mac community. . Anyone know of a good Mac alternative? Also I lost Skype. Same question. What version of Skype will work with this old eMac?

Hello, as far as Skype...
http://mac.oldapps.com/skype.php?old_skype=32
And as far as online backup I really don't understand that wish, unless...
You have 20 MB/Sec Fiber Optic upload speed
You'r enot aware that a Firewire Drive will cost likely less than a couple of months of unlimited backup.
& there are free apps to backup or clone, which will leave you able to continue with your work within a minute or two...

Online backup and the Redolog mechanism

Hello,
During a backup I understand that the redolog mechanism changes, so that when a block is changed for the first time after the backup commences, it's entire content is copied to the redolog files, rather than just the change vector.
My question is, does this happen even when the oracle block size is the same as the operating system block size?
My understanding is that the change in redolog mechanism is because a single oracle block can be made up multiple operating system blocks, so that within an oracle block a change can be done to a few blocks, then a read by the online backup, so that the oracle block read by the backup is inconsistent.
But if the oracle block size was the same as the operating system block size, each change would be atomic, so the problem of having inconsistent oracle blocks would not arise. So the change in redolog mechanism would no longer be necessary. Does the redolog mechanism change anyway?
Kind regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
I will try to make the issue more clear eventhough so much useful has been written and said in this thread !!
During Online Backup the tablespaces enter the backup mode this has following effects:
1) A checkpoint on TS level is triggered before the backup of this TS starts and DBWR writes all corresponding dirty blocks of this TS to data files.
2) The SCN corresponding to TS Checkpoint remains Frozen in the headrers of all TS files until the end of backup mode.
3) Every change in this TS is logged in the redolog on data block level instead of data record level ; not only the redo info for a modified record is written into the redolg but the whole 8 KB block containing this record ( immaterial whether OS block size is 8 KB or not). The reason for this granual logging is the possibility that
CPIO or DD may copy an oracle block to the backup medium in smaller units than 8 KB while the block is being changed by DBWR which can lead to inconsistencies whithin such a block.
Now When the backup later used for restoring the TS, all blocks written to the redo log during the backup mode overwrite therir "suspicious"versions saved directly in the backup of the data files.
Hope this useful
Regards
Umesh
