BackUp Procedure for OAM

how can we backup OAM? What are all the things that are to be backed up as a routine process?
What iam trying to achieve is :
Everyday a backup process runs and everything in the backup folder is backed up.
So what and how will I push to this folder so that backup of the same can happen.

A complete OAM installation would have -
1) Install directories for the various components,
2) Web server configuration mods, and
3) Configuration and policy data.
For 1, just back up once after your initial install is done. Typically you would not be changing things around a whole lot in the installation directories - mainly files inside the config directory and logs written by OAM. You can selectively back up those pieces and also any other files (e.g. stylesheet customizations etc.) where you do make changes. While patching/migrating, OAM creates backups before upgrading the installs.
For 2, OAM itself (usually) creates backups of the web server configuration before adding in its edits and if you have webpass, policy manager and webgate on the same web server, you might have up to 3 versions of the configuration files. If your web server is IIS, you need to create the backup yourself.
For 3, you can use snapshots using Configuration Manager (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28196_01/idmanage.1014/b32392/overview.htm) - that you can restore from later.
Hope that helps.

  • Backup procedure using RMAN for 11i Instance

    Hi,
    we have 11.5.10.2 instance
    Node 1 = Application Tier ( 11.5.10.2)
    Node 2 = DB Tier ( 9.2.0.7)
    as of now, we are taking daily cold backup of both instances.
    we want to implement RMAN online backup for DB and take cold backup every week end only.
    so, what are the best procedures for implementing RMAN for 11i Database.
    Please share your experience, if you have anybody implemented?
    which one you prefer in RMAN backup ( backupsets or copy option or backupsets with compressed option) interms of performance.. our db size is 60 GB only.
    we apply apps tier patches very rarely . so we want to take RMAN online backup for DB daily and take cold backup for entire apps and db in the week ends.

    Hi,
    This time, i am going to implement for Oracle 11i Database. thats why, i need you guys advice regarding 11i Database.Well, the same is applicable to 11i/R12 databases. You just need to configure RMAN the same way you configure it on any standalone database.
    If you have implemented any where RMAN, can you share, how you are taking RMAN backup? I can share the scripts we use for backup using RMAN. If you are interested, let me know and I shall send it by email.
    if we want to clone, are you cloning the TEST instance with RMAN backup or using cold backup.We use both, depends on the time frame of the cloning task and whether it is possible to use cold backup for cloning or not.
    Please have a look at the following notes, it should be helpful.

  • What is the procedure for a hard boot of my iPod touch 4th generation without itunes, and without computer, and without iPod data screen.?

    What is the procedure for a hard boot of my iPod touch 4th generation
    without iTunes, and without computer, and without iPod data screen?
    6 months after purchase I updated my iPod touch as recommend by iTunes.
    It has not worked since that day.  It frozen (disabled) with a "connect to
    iTunes" icon displayed...that is the only thing it does.  itunes does not
    recognize the iPod.  My Windows7 computer recognizes an Apple device. 
    Other computers recognize the devise but if iTunes resided on that
    computer it did not recognize the iPod
    I suffered a setback with deep depression and am just now getting out of it enough to do something.  The depression prohibited me from taking action.
    I have done every procedure recommended from Apple help and external
    sources.  I did this thoroughly with help for other owners and IT experts,
    Apple employees etc etc.  I and associates have perform reboots utilizing a
    number procedure using only button on the iPod.  These were unsuccessful
    also have performed.
    Please do not ask me to do the usual.
    Online I saw  a process using the buttons on the iPod to completely
    reformat 
    the iPod.  It was NOT the hold buttons for 10 sec let go of one wait 8 sec
    etc.  I can not find the process now...a friend showed it to me in passing
    I have lost contact with him.  This is the procedure, I believe, that with
    enable me to update and use the iPod. 

    You need an internet connection and likely a computer with iTunes but an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with the FindMy iPhone App may work by:
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    Otherwise
    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:           
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Best Backup Practice for Solaris 10 running Zones

    What is the best practice for backing up a solaris 10 server with zones?
    I have solaris 10 installed here on a v240 running 4 zones. All services run off the local zones. We use Veritas backup exec 9, and I have the solaris agent. Should I backup the Data on each of the zones as if they were their own system , or should I only run the backup exec agent on the global zone?
    It would make sence to just backup from the global zone, as it is only one system to backup.
    We are working on our backup procedures now, and I want to make sure that we are doing this the best way possible.
    any thoughts?

    Hey there,
    Have a look at this excellent guide. I think that you may find what you need here. If not drop an email back. To begin with you need an extra disk(s) since you will mirror your data. This is sort of a pre-requisite.
    Good luck,

  • Proper Backup Procedures with External Hard Drives

    I use external firewire drives for all of my photos and I have a quick question about backup procedures. I currently use Intego's Personal Backup X5 software solution and I wanted to know whether it is better to backup your files or Sync your files when making duplicate drives?

    Aperture's vault function will "sync" your library with your vault. This means that the vault will only hold one specific version of your library, which is fine for most users. The vault file will be more or less the same size as your Aperture library file.
    If you want to make incremental backup of your library (which will allow you to restore specific versions of your library) then you could take a look at "Backup 3" which can be downloaded in a trail version here:
    http://www.mac.com/1/solutions/backup.html
    Incremental backup will mean that your initial backup file plus all your incremental backup files will fill up more space on your harddisk than the size of your Aperture library. (incremental = adding)

  • Procedure for Standby Database for SAP ERP 6.0

    Hello All,
    We are using SAP ERP 6.0 with Oracle 10g with AIX 5.3.
    We are planning to setup a standby database for our SAP ERP 6.0 production system as part of remote DR site using Oracle Data Guard.
    I was under the assumption that i can first install an erp 6.0 (ABAP) system using homogeneous system copy from my erp 6.0 (ABAP) production system and then start configuring oracle dataguard.
    But the System Copy Guide "System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3 ABAP" has mentioned that "You cannot create standby systems with a system copy".
    Please suggest the best practise or the procedure for creating standby database for SAP ERP 6.0 system. Iam not looking at the steps for creating a pure oracle 10g standby database, but with SAP instances as well.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Procedure for installing OS (Leopard) in a new hard drive unit.

    I am running a Powerbook about two years old under the latest version of Tiger, and I want to do some renovation and increase the performance of it before installing Leopard, such as buying an additional 1gb of ram (resulting in the max of 2gb of ram), and also change my hard drive from a 100gb 5400 rpm, to a new seagate 100gb 7200 rpm.
    My question come to this: if I have my Leopard DVD, and I have finished installing the hardware on my Powerbook. What comes next to install the DVD: (just as a note, I wish to have a clean install of my OS)
    - I will probably install the ram under Tiger, and make sure that it is recognized, etc.., and then move forward to the hard drive change.
    - should I insert the DVD (under Tiger), shut down my laptop, perform the change of hard drive and then press the "Power button" followed by the boot command key, and it must be immediately recognized?
    - or, should I proceed to change the hard drive and after it has been physically installed, when I turn "ON" my laptop, I should be able to insert the DVD and press the boot command key?
    - Which is the best procedure for what I am trying to achieve? are both of these possible? is there any difference or preference whatsoever? I will appreciate any feedback or warning on any preparation that should be made to the hard drive when it is new. Should it be pre-formatted? or will it work straight out of the box in order to initiate the installation process.
    first time doing this type of hardware changes, and I'll appreciate any recommendations or thoughts on this.
    for reference, I am planing on buying these products:
    *1.0GB PC2700 DDR SODIMM 200 Pin Memory Module 128x64 CL 2.5
    *100GB 2.5" Seagate Momentus 7200.1 7200RPM ATA Notebook drive
    Initially I am thinking on buying these over at OWC.
    thanks,

    orlandold:
    Your plan to install the RAM and test it with Tiger is fine, although not necessary. You can install it at the same time you install your HDD. Either way will be fine.
    Once your new HDD is installed, follow these directions:
    (Note: they are written for Tiger and earlier, but should work fine)
    Formatting, Partitioning Zeroing a Hard Disk Drive
    Warning! This procedure will destroy all data on your Hard Disk Drive. Be sure you have an up-to-date, tested backup of at least your Users folder and any third party applications you do not want to re-install before attempting this procedure.
    Boot from the install CD holding down the "C" key.
    Select language
    Go to the Utilities menu (Tiger & later) Installer menu (Panther & earlier) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
    Select Partition tab in main panel. (You are about to create a single partition volume.)
    Select number of partition in pull-down menu above Volume diagram.
    (Note 1: One partition is normally preferable for an internal HDD.)
    Type in name in Name field (usually Macintosh HD)
    Select Volume Format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    Click Partition button at bottom of panel.
    Select Erase tab
    Select the sub-volume (indented) under Manufacturer ID (usually Macintosh HD).
    Check to be sure your Volume Name and Volume Format are correct.
    Optional: Select on Security Options button (Tiger & later) Options button (Panther & earlier).
    Select Zero all data. (This process will map out bad blocks on your HDD. However, it could take several hours. If you want a quicker method, don't go to Security Options and just click the Erase button.)
    Click OK.
    Click Erase button
    Quit Disk Utility.
    Installation Process
    Open Installer and begin installation.
    Choose to Customize and deselect Foreign Language Translations and Additional Printer drivers.
    Check box to install X11 (Tiger) BSD Subsystems (Panther & earlier).
    Proceed with installation.
    After installation computer will restart for setup.
    After setup, reboot computer.
    Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
    Select First Aid in main panel.
    Click Repair Disk Permissions.
    Connect to Internet.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo update (PPC).
    Computer will restart after updates.
    Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
    Select First Aid in main panel.
    Click Repair Disk Permissions.
    Please do post back with further questions or comments.

  • Suggested procedure for safe updating of Safari to v. 3.2

    If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have):
    N.B. Never delete Safari, never run it under Rosetta, don't use proxy settings.
    (If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
    Safari 3.2 for download can be found here:
    http://www.apple.com/safari/download/
    Make sure you download the correct version for your system.
    Also, observe the standard procedure for installing software: repair permissions and close all applications, install, then repair permissions again.)
    Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
    So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
    Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was not a beta and which was updated to v.3.1.2, and now both Tiger and Leopard uses Safari 3.2. If Safari 3.2 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
    (Trying to revert to a previous version of Safari can have repercussions, as Safari 3.x uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, but if you really want to do this post back in a new thread for instructions on the safe way to do so.)
    Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-ons that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for Safari 3.2.
    You should also ensure that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates up to 2008-007, which is required for Safari 3.2. Like all security updates, these require a restart and a permission repair. Note that 2008-007 is a combo update: if you have missed a couple of updates this one will suffice.
    To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
    Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
    • Hard Disk/Library/InputManagers
    • Home/Library/InputManagers
    especially prior to system updates and updates to Safari (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
    Please do not respond to this post if you are having difficulties, or ask your questions in somebody else's thread, but start your own thread where your particular problem can get the full attention it deserves.

    Bump.
    Upgrading PithHelmet stopped my crashing.

  • Azure backup options for Server 2012 R2 Essentials

    Hello,
    I have configured a new on-prem HP server for a very small (5 users) non-profit client. This is a single server environment, and they use Office 365 for email. I have already configured AD Sync between the two with dirsync. I have installed the Azure agent,
    and imported the certificate, and I am ready to create a backup set.
    This is my first experience with Cloud based server backup - I'm used to products like Backup Exec and tape media. What are my options for backing up this server? Can I only do file/folder backup, as it appears?
    What would be best practice in this situation, as I need to back up the systems state as well? And then, how to restore it?
    All I can think of would be to use Windows Server backup to create a backup of the server, then back that up - but it's so messy, I must be missing something.
    Thank you in advance!!

    Hi,
    You may refer the following link for clear step-by-step procedure on Azure backup:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2014/05/01/configuring-microsoft-azure-online-backup-on-windows-server-2012-r2-essentials.aspx
    As of now, you can only backup File & folders(Even entire drive) but you cannot perform System State backups with Azure Backup.
    For System State backup, as you mentioned about using WSB and then backing it up to Azure Backup vault may be the only work-around as of now. However, you may vote and provide feedback for this feature in
    here.
