Am i missing the most basic setting for RMAN in RAC?

DB version: 10.2.0.4
We've set up a 2 node RAC environment. Everything is working fine (failover,...etc).Each node can 'view' other node's archive log destination from OS level.
ie. When you type
df -hboth nodes can see each other's location of archive logs.
When i was trying to take a test LEVEL 0 backup, i got the following error.
Starting backup at 12-JUL-10

Am i missing some basic CONFIGURATION setting (persistent setting) here?

The archivelog is actually at

/u04/arch214/arch_603157736_2_47455.arcThe path is different. Can you check the filename in v$ARCHIVED_LOG ?
Apparenly, the log_archive_dest_1 parameter is different in the two instances.
Have you configured multiple Channels appropriately to connect to the two instances ?

  • What is the best Compressor setting for best quality video playback on an iBook g4?

    I know the iBook and G4's in general are very outdated today, but I need to ask anyways. I have some video projects in 720p and 1080p in which I have down converted to 480p and also exported to MPEG-2 for DVD (personal wedding videos and videos made for my clients using Final Cut Studio). Anything encoded at most resolutions using h264 won't play on my iBook. Even 480p.
    I have about 20 hours of mixed video content that I need it in a format that is suitable for an iPhone 4 and an iBook 12" with a 1.2GHz G4, 1.25GB RAM and I added a 250 WD 5400 IDE hard disk (running 10.5.8 and 10.4.11 for Classic Mode). I know the iBook doesn't seem like the best tool for modern video playback, but I need to figure out which setting will play best with iPhone 4 and iBook so I don't need to make 2 local copies of each video for each device.
    The iBook plays best with the original DVD output MPEG-2 file and playing back in QT Pro or VLC... but I already have 180 GB's of MPEG-2 files now and my little HD is almost full. I don't have enough room to convert all the iPhone 4 counterparts. If I use Compressor 3.5.3, what is the optimal setting for iBook and iPhone .m4v or .mp4 files that can play on both devices? So far 720x400-480 widescreen videos @ 29fps works great on my iPhone, Apple TV 2, and other computers but seems to murder my poor iBook if encoded with high profile (and still choppy on simple profiles). 640x480 (adding black matte bars to my videos) plays fine in MPEG-2 but drops frames or goes to black screen if I convert it to mp4 (and looks bad on the iPhone 4 because of the matte). But if I convert on any of the simple profiles, it looks terrible on my iPhone 4 and a blocky on the iBook.
    This is the problem leading me to having 2 copies of each video and eating my hard disk space. What is the best video setting for both playback on the iBook and iPhone 4? Can the iBook playback H264 at all in decent resolutionsat all? I don't really want to have a 480p .m4v collection for the iPhone 4 and a MPEG-2 RAW collection just to play the same videos on the iBook.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    Update: The iBook can play any 480p video and higher if I encode them with DivX and in AVI format. But of course this is not compatible with my iPhone 4. At least I can shrink my library now and get away from the full MPEG-2s. I don't get why I can't use Apple's h264 though. There has to be a setting I am missing. The sample Apple h264 videos from the days of Tiger worked flawlessly on my iBook when it was new so the CPU must be capable of decoding it. I really can't understand this.
    Also, since I made my videos in English for my family, I had to create soft subtitles for my wife's Chinese family, and I can't get players like QT with perian or MPlayerX to sync them properly to an AVI encoded with DivX, they only sync well with the iPhone 4 m4v/mp4 formatted files I made. This is a real pickle.
    So now I may need three or four copies of each video, LOL. I need to hardcode the subtitles if I want to use AVI to playback on older machines, and keep the mp4 file for the iDevices too, while keeping higher quality h264 videos for my American relatives...
    If h264 is compatible with my iBook, what is the proper encoding settings? Must I dramatically lower the settings or frame rate? I can settle on 2 copies of each video that way. One iBook/G4/eMac compatible video that syncs correctly with my srt soft subs, and another version that works well with my iPhone 4 and iPad.
    All in all, I will end up with more than 3 or 4 version of each video. On my late G5 dual core I have the full 720-1080p uncompressed master files. On my i5 iMac I have the h264 compressed versions for distribution, and lower versions for my iDevices. Now I need to keep either full MPEG-2 files for the iBook to play, or convert to older formats like DivX AVI for our family's legacy machines. I am running out of hard disk space quick now, LOL.
    Is there an easier way?

  • Trouble accessing the most basic JRE functions?!!!

    I'm in my 1st semester for Java programming, I've just downloaded the latest SDK to Windows XP, & everything appears to be fine. (the dancing bird etc) But I cannot locate the Text Pad in order to run the most basic Java commands to test my compiler. Can anyone help me? And please explain the various possibiliies it as if I were a child, my thanks in advance.

    There is not magic that you need to know to configure the path variable, it is the same for Java as it is for any windows commands, just go into your "System Properties/Advanced/Environment Variables" and set up your Path variable. javac is just an executable (EXE) program like regclean or notepad. Look in your system and make sure you have your path variable include the fully qualified path pointing to where javac and java are located.
    You are also going to have to setup a system variable called "CLASSPATH" and have it point to your java library.

  • What Are the Exact Basic rules for Replying a Thread...... -:)   @};-

    Hi Experts,
    After Looking into the forums many days I had a small conclusion about forums,
    SAP Forums are better place I have seen for getting a goo dhelp & Knowledge...
    Why can't we make it a BEST Place.
    This is just a small doubt which I would like to clear myself first,
    I have seen many users In the forums asking for a Basic Questions
    When cleared, But still they want to have a Spoon feeding with a Sample Code.
    When Sample Code Given they will provide the original code and requests for Modifications.
    These always looks to me as crazy.
    I have seen somelong time agin by moderators posting that In SCN there will be no SPOON FEEDING.
    I am not sure whether if still this Rule AVAILABLE or NOT.
    Ok if the task is really difficult let them ask again and again,
    And it was not replied, let them repost, I agree with them.
    And How about a User Registered in SDN very long back and asking for a silly question in below thread,
    [Sendin Email to the recipent list -Need correct FM |Getting the address from shipto partner of Bil. item not directly from C.ma]
    This is one more example, really funny, The thread poster needs the solution at any cost, he doesn't require and Suggetions,,, {He Only needs Solution}
    [Radio Buttons |Radio Buttons;
    [Turning Off Debugger |Turning Off Debugger;
    [Regarding Amount in words|Regarding Amount in words;
    There are 100's of threads like this....Everyone knows this facts.
    Check this who answered this one and who replied correct answer, who copied, finally who was rewarded...!
    [how to validate POsting period |Re: how to validate POsting period]
    Now My Real Problem is....!
    User is always intelligent, Only the weakness is in Contributor, trying to help them,..,
    And I openly say that Someone requesting for basic help is not DUMB, But the Contributor replying forgets
    the basic rules " Why Contributing ?"
    According to me It's not the Requestor to see Rules & Requlations before posting the threads,
    But its responsibilty for the Contributing person to see th Rules & Requlations before replying the threads,
    If we follow the rules and stand on a single word or rule or anything there will be Good Result.
    Major Problem is in US not anyone else.
    Example Some one saying search in the forum,,, then please no replies after that...
    But we are very pity hearted again we post the solution,,,
    But it is not at all enough(for cintribtor's)... they will copy the solution and post again by slight Modifications,
    And Some users are having 500,600,700,800 Posts with 0 points, registered long long back.
    They are completly dependent on forums,,, As they goto office and as they eat, The same they open forums and ask Queries...
    They will never realize what they are doing,, and we will never let them improve better...
    Finally Lets Discuss About this and Correct & Suggest me if I am wrong,
    Is my thoughts are going in the right way or not I am not even sure... Please Aslo Correct me if I did any mistakes.
    Thanks & regards,

    Title Changed Form
    "What to do when someone asking for Basic Questions" to "What Are the Exact Basic rules for Replying a Threads...... "

    Hi Stephen,
    Very useful Information,
    First tell me a little something about my self...
    After completion of my certification(as a fresher) I was down the streets hunting the job,
    with the insufficient knowledge and being a non-experienced person, I never got one.
    And mean while when I got my "S-UserID", I used to be proud, To say frankly, I registerd in SDN & SAP all at a time, without even knowing what I can do there..,
    When I got a job afterwords I was doing the job and never seen SDN page for many months,
    when I came to know that of we have doubts we can post at SDN. then started requesting help,
    I posted only a little, I didnot got the proper response. on that day I decided,
    still there are some places where we cannot get help on time and there will be people waiting to get help,
    Why cant I put some of my efforts to help others.
    Then I searched some topic by Topic in SDN topic by Topic I used to read threads just for knowledge.
    when I feel my self comfort for contributing, I started contibuting...!
    If you haven't read it, take a look first, so you can understand where things are now.
    I dont know where things are now. But these in this thread I mentioned clearly what I seen from the day I started contributing.
    I searched with the terms of 'Rules for replying', The results are not as I expected, and this link has subject as
    "O SDN, where art thou?" So it dosent hit my in the list.
    Like everybody until a certain stage I am also rushing for points.
    But I most cases I never tried to copy paste answers. If I done some then that is just to point it myself some day,
    I have no hopes or no intrest on the points...! This was discussed with Rob & Matt, at my inital contribution where my points are 36.
    From that day till date I have changed a lot to myself.
    Everyone cannot change like me because they are not like me & And I dont even expect that...!
    I will be online almost 6-8Hrs a day, Not even getting intrest to see the forums just because of the co-contributors.
    My only point is I am just requesting to a co-contributor,
    Clearly In a example : Lets say contributor has replied to a thread, and if you know that is a correct solution,
    please dont reply any more, If you have a better solution than that, then only reply,
    Even there is one reply in the thread not a matter, if correct answer leave that query.
    If still error persists, Show up with your Idea's...
    Dont let down the contributor, by copying his reply and editing and pasting(edit only if incorrect).
    I am just looking for this one exactly to circulate between ourselfs.
    For this we a little support from moderators to circulate(may be as a rule or may be as a mail to them)
    You may say again how many mails we have to send, It dosent matter, one mail to one person one time,
    and +ve factors will show up definetly.
    A real contributor always understand what I am talking about, but some one who hunts for points will never.
    I am really sorry if I am troubling with my doubts & requests,
    If so, Pleae forgive me,,
    Thanks & regards,

  • The most basic RMAN implementation

    Version:10gR2
    For my test db ora652, i need to use RMAN for backup and recovery. The backup location is an NFS mount called
    /dbbackup/ora652I need to use the most basic RMAN implementation. I don't want to use a repository (Client RMAN)ie. i am going to invoke the RMAN utility from Database's ORACLE_HOME to do this.
    Can anyone provide me the command to configure RMAN for this?
    Here are my files
    --datafiles
    /u02/oradata/ora652/system01.dbf
    /u02/oradata/ora652/undotbs01.dbf
    /u02/oradata/ora652/sysaux01.dbf
    /u02/oradata/ora652/users01.dbf
    /u02/oradata/ora652/shp_tbs01.dbf
    --temp files
    /u02/oradata/ora652/temp01.dbf
    --redo logs
    /u02/oradata/ora652/redo01.log
    /u02/oradata/ora652/redo02.log
    /u02/oradata/ora652/redo03.log
    --control files
    /u02/oradata/ora652/control01.ctl
    /u02/oradata/ora652/control02.ctl
    /u02/oradata/ora652/control03.ctl

    A couple of things....
    1) Did you know that Oracle actually provides documentation on how to do this type of thing? You can find the Oracle Database Backup and Recovery Basics guide at:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/toc.htm
    You will be amazed...they actually provide guidance on scenarios as well.
    Here is the "basic" script they show for backing up a database.
    RMAN> RECOVER COPY OF DATABASE WITH TAG "whole_db_copy";
    # Make an incremental backup of the database to the flash recovery area.
    RMAN> BACKUP INCREMENTAL LEVEL 1
    FOR RECOVER OF COPY WITH TAG "whole_db_copy"
    DATABASE;
    Now those are the basic commands you can execute at the command line. There are other possibilities depending on your platform is a shell script with a cron job, manually as the above script shows, shell script executed manually, Oracle Enterprise Manager (which is a pretty little GUI that requires no coding on your part), 3-rd party software.
    2) You better test this on a non-production system.
    3) You better test the restore on a non-production system.
    4) You better have plans for storing your backups offsite....hate for a fire to destroy your system and all copies of the backups...wow your boss would be mad.
    5) You better read the documentation and understand RMAN in general.
    Regards

  • I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008) and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model. I have read some reviews of Maverick and Yosemite making the older macs slower. Is this true?

    I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008), Intel Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz, 4GB Memory. and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model? Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite?
    When I had gone to the apple care centre in India a few months ago to upgrade my OSX to Mountain Lion, I was told that considering my macbook pro's specs, upgrading it would just make it less efficient, and that I should stick to Snow Leopard unless I consider buying a newer mac that would benefit from it. Is this true? I find it a bit hard to believe. Which update is most recommended?
    I also notice that my mac has gotten considerably slower. While using chrome, it buffers and struggles with even just 5 tabs open. Could this have something to do with my current ios? As a precaution, I have always been making sure I have enough free space on disk i.e around 70 - 100 free out of 250GB.
    Any advice is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store, so your choice is Yosemite. One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

  • I'm trying to find an easier way to import my music to iTunes. Even the most basic music player can scan your computer and import found music into your library. I don't want to move my MP3s into the iTunes folder, I don't want iTunes doing any conversion.

    I'm trying to find an easy way to import my MP3 collection into iTunes without moving, copying or changing it.
    I can't believe that iTunes doesn't have this feature, as even the most basic music players always have this.
    I only use iTunes to sync my iPod, as I like Media Monkey to play my MP3s.
    I have 137GB of MP3s, mainly from my ripping my CDs, LPs and downloading from Amazon. I've only purchased a handful of songs from iTunes,
    Any ideas on how to do this easily?

    It does have that feature. Why would you assume that it doesn't?

    Okay, no problem.
    If the top bar menu is not displayed in top left of your iTunes Library, use the CTRL+B keys to turn it on:
    On that menu, use File/Add Folder to Library and navigate to the folder you wish to add:
    If you wish to add just one song, notice the File/Add File to Library command on that menu as well.
    Alternatively, you can drag-and-drop from the file's location into your iTunes Library.
    That's all there is to it.
    By the way, it is possible to have Amazon MP3s downloaded to your computer and then automatically added to the iTunes Library by the Amazon downloader. I do it all the time.

    Unfortunately yes, though technology would never move on if it kept to older standards and did not strive to do more.
    The app store always gives you the option to use a previous version of the app IF it is available for your device.
    Sorry but you are stuck without new hardware.

  • I've got an iPad and iPhone 4S, both of which are set up for facetime. When someone calls me, both the iPad and phone ring, even though the phone is set to receive facetime calls on the number and the iPad is set for an email account. why is this?

    I've got an iPad and iPhone 4S, both of which are set up for facetime. When someone calls me, both the iPad and phone ring, even though the phone is set to receive facetime calls on the number and the iPad is set for an email account.
    How can I change the setup so on the email only the iPad rings and on the phone number only the phone rings?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • 3.6.26 is working on my OSX 10.4.11 PPC, but it keeps asking me to download the most current version for my system... why?

    I've dowloaded and updated 3.6.26, which Firefox stated was the most current version, but when I restart the browser, it then states I'm NOT running the most current version for my system... why?
    I'm running a Mac PPC G4 10.4.11 Thanks for any assistance you can provide :)

    Thanks for the Reply Alice... :) The message is when I restart Firefox, which activates the update, and the 'thanks' page on Firefox's site (not Google)... So, I'm curious why it gives me my most current update, then tells me that there might be a more current version for my system... very strange! Anyway, I'm definitely sticking with 3.6.26, unless I get info that suggests there's a .27 or .28 flying around that may be useful... I will definitely NOT go to 9 or 10.... :)

    Great question, Aerogoob.
    The XY graph can be bound to a 1d array of "points", where each point is a cluster of two numerics (X and Y). To create a shared variable of this type, you can set the data type to "From Custom Control..." in the shared variable properties dialog. Of course, first you'll have to build the custom control of the correct type: array of cluster of two numerics.
    If any of that doesn't make sense, please post back and we can walk you through it in more detail.
    Also, just for completeness, the chart indicator can be bound to a scalar numeric or to an array of numerics. The graph indicator can only be bound to an array of numerics.

Maybe you are looking for
