Backup and restore to a new server

Hello,
I have a new server that I would like to copied the production DB. This is what I have so far
1: A backup of the production Db (User manage backup -- no RMAN)
2: have the redo logs
3: I install and configure the server and a test database on the new system (SOLARIS)
Can some give me some hints on how to restore the backed-up database to my new system from the shell prompt? I don't have the DBconsole or GUI tool (my Admin block most of the ports....
Thanks in advance for your help
SYSTEM : SOLARIS
DB : 10G

A cold backup taken how? This is not as simple as it would be if you were a DBA and knew what you were working with.
Assuming I had a copy of the files I would be recreating directory paths, creating control files, setting environment variables, etc.
Look at this online demo for DataGuard
http://www.morganslibrary.org/reference/data_guard.html
It is used to create a physical standby which is not what you want but it shows the basic steps you need for backing up the primary
production database and for creating a duplicate. Hopefully this will help you with your research.

Can I backup and restore on a new computer without changing my main iTunes computer?

I just got AT&T to unlock my iPhone so that I can use it on multiple networks while I am traveling. In order to complete the unlock, I must backup and restore the iPhone on my iTunes. Unfortunately, my iMac that I use to sync my iPhone is being shipped across the planet and I won't have it for about a month. Is it possible to install iTunes on a new computer and conduct a backup and restore, without losing anything on the iPhone and still be able to sync with my iMac when I receive it?

Thanks for the clear and concise response ;-)
Anything in particular I need to be aware of? i.e. after I install iTunes on the new PC and connect my iPhone, do I need to do anything specific to ensure that the phone is not overwritten? Is it that simple that I can just connect the phone and it will back it up, then I do a restore and done? (Sorry but based on all the discussion threads I've read around this, I am skeptical that it is that simple.)

OAS 10.1.2 Backup and Restore to a new box

Using the OAS backup/recovery utility, can one restore it to a totally new box with new hostname, ip etc...
Basically instead of installing a brand new OAS/portal can we utilize the jar and restore it instead?

To clarify further. these are the steps i performed.
1. Used Backup/Recovery console and backed up infra as well portal
2. Used exp command to get a dump of portal and its schemas. ( as suggested in Ch:11)
This listed out only the 'PORTAL','PORTAL_APP','PORTAL_DEMO','PORTAL_PUBLIC' schemas.
Not sure about the ones under INFRA
Not sure as to how to proceed further.
Do i install a new OAS/Portal on the new host now and import these files in the new schema?
Thanks

Preserving folders on iPad during backup and restore

Are there suggestions for preserving my folders during a backup and restore to a new iPad2? I have had experiences previously where my apps would be removed from the folders and I would have to spend lots of time reorganizing.

If you are restoring to factory settings, you will loose the folders. If you are restoring from a backup, then the folders should be what is in the backup. If you change the folders on the iPad after you made a backup, then create a new backup with the current arrangement and discard the previous backup.

Backup and restore Mac

Hard drive is failing and so I will need to backup and restore Mac onto new drive. My Mac is a Macbook 2009 and I use Time Machine weekly for backups. So when my new drive comes what will I do? What I imagine I will do is the following.
1. Take out old drive and install new one.
2. Boot from OSX SL Boot CD and format hard drive.
3. Restore Mac from time machine backup from Boot CD? Or would I need to install SL first?
4. Mavericks, Mountain Lion and such were installed from the Apple Store and have no CD so this may complicate things.
5. Regarding Windows XP Partiton I have no idea but I may need to install XP and Office again and if so I have the CD's. Or is there an easier way?
Thank you for your help.
John

If you can put the new drive in an external USB or FireWire case, and use SuperDuper! (Free for a full clone) or Carbon Copy Cloner) it would make your life much easer when you swap the drive.
As for Windows partition, you would need a Windows cloning utility.

The iCloud backup includes most things except non-iTunes purchased but the iTunes backup does not include those either. For what iCloud includes see:

Windows 8 full system backup and restore to new laptop (system with 32GB mSata Cache)?

Hi, I have a new Envy DV7-7205 which has 2TB storage with 32GB HDD Cache (or mSata, not really sure how it's implemented). I need to return the laptop as it's faulty but I would like to startup on the replacement exactly where I left off.
Are there any special methods required to backup and restore the system image from the old laptop to the new one, particularly with consideration to the 32GB SSD cache, as this doesn;t seem to appear as a distinct "drive" on the system.
Please can anybody advise the simplest, safest method to move my entire system from old to the new laptops (should be exactly the same spec machine).
Many thanks,
Greg

Hi,
Firstly I don't know how this is going to work on new machine because the Windows 8 lisence would NOT work at all.
Regards.

Exchange Server 2013 backup and restoration question

Good afternoon
I am wondering if I can pick people's brains here if that's not too much trouble.
I have recently implemented an Exchange 2013 environment with 3 servers (two multi-role CAS & MBX physical machines, and one further virtual CAS server). Everything is working correctly and mail-flow is fine. My question relates to backup and restoration
procedures. I am running a single Database Availability group with the two multi-role servers members of the this group and I have one Mailbox Database on the DAG, passive on one member and active on the other. Failover has been tested and this is functioning
as expected.
The backup environment I have implemented is as follows. I have utilized a separate Microsoft DPM 2012 server that runs a nightly Bare Metal backup on both multi-role servers with a retention range of 14 days and I have protected the DAG using DPM with a
nightly full-express backup and 4 hourly syncs on one of the multi-role servers. Furthermore the Mailbox Database is protected, again nightly with a copy-backup.
I am confident I know what to do should the mailbox database become corrupted or lost or need to be restored for one reason or another (it would just be a case of restoring the backed up mailbox database using DPM to a pre-created recovery database), what
I am not quite so sure on is what I would do should I lose one or both of the multi-role CAS and MBX servers (the third CAS I am not so worried about as it is not used for incoming mail flow from the internet and we really only use it for ECP as we did not
want to expose this to the internet). I wonder what process should follow to restore my Exchange servers (I know how to perform the Bare Metal recoveries using WSB) and what configuration would be required after restoring the Bare Metal backups.
I know this is a reasonably long question but if anyone has any advice for me I would appreciate it greatly in the unlikely event something goes horribly wrong with my Exchange environment.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Yes, Most of the configuration settings are stored in AD. Mail data and personal related data are store in Mailbox DB. We just need to take consideration of these two points.

An iPhone backup to a computer via iTunes stores the photos in a backup file that is only meant to be be used if needed to restore back to the phone. There is 3rd party "extractor" software available but otherwise the photos are not directly viewable.
The backup via iTunes was a good idea and your Camera Roll photos should be there and should be able to be restored to your new phone. However if it was me I wouldn't rely on that alone. I would also import the photos to a computer where you can see and verify that you have a copy. That is a good idea at any time (not just when you know you might need it). Any phone can be lost, broken, suffer hardware issues, etc at any time and lose all data on it. Following is a link with information on how to import the photos to a computer: Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support

We use Retrospect and backup to tape and hard drive. This is for user files. If you want you could use Carbon Copy Cloner (www.bombich.com)to baxck up the server or certain user files.
