Backup & Recovery From Diffferent Operating system

My Oracle 9i Databae is running on Unix server.
I want to take the backup and recovery operation from my NT machine. should i take care anything, like character set...etc.....?

Standby databases must be the same database version and run on the same operating system as the primary. You can't have an NT standby database with a Solaris primary database. I expect this restriction will be relaxed for logical standby databases in the future, but the restriction is still there in 10.1.
For the same reasons, you cannot recover a database onto an operating system other than the operating system that the original database was running on. Depending on the size of the database, the amount of acceptable downtime, and the volatility of the data, you may be able to do a full export on the Unix server and import that on the Windows server.

    please suggest the solution.

    Hi pulkit,
    According to your description, the actual error could be caused by but not limited to the following issues: Memory issues, Third Party issues, or SQL Server issues and so on. However, as shanky post, if you use an external or third party backup tool like
    NetBackup, BackupExec, or one of the many other tools available for backing up SQL Server databases without having to write your own backup scripts, and the error occurs. You need to check if there are some issues about your VDI or SQLVDI.DLL. Meanwhile,
    you also need to troubleshooting Memory Issue or the third tool issue. For more information about troubleshooting the error 995 when backing up database via the third party tool. You can review the following blog.
    https://support.software.dell.com/kb/SOL14674
    In addition, the error may include additional text from the operating system indicating that the disk is full. When performing a backup or restore operation with third-party backup software an additional message may occur indicating that the backup failed.
    Perform the following tasks as appropriate:
     1. Review the underlying system error messages and SQL Server error messages preceding this one to identify the cause of the failure.
     2. Ensure that the backup and restore medium has sufficient space.
     3. Correct any errors raised by third-party backup and restore software.
    There is also detail about backing up database via T-SQL statement /GUI, you can review the following article.

  • Unexpected error from the Operating System

    Hello everyone. I have a PCI 1200 board and I use LabWindows/CVI. I want to
    make a scan on an analog input channel of my board. For this, I tried the
    functions Lab_ISCAN_Op, nidaqAIScanOp and DAQ_Op, and for all of them, the
    same error occurs, which is:
    return value == -10856
    with the message:
    osError: An unexpected error occured from the operating system while performing
    the given operation.
    Any hints for me?
    Thanks in advance.
    Yves

    I have similar problem with Error code= --10452 (noIntAvailError: No
    interrupt level is available for use) when I used the Dap_Op() function.
    After checking the system's resources (from Control Panel -> System and
    click on properties to get the system resources used by my Lab-PC-1200 card.
    Win98 has plug and play and so it shows me only the I/O ranges. I forced
    the system to allow the Lab-PC card to use IRQ=3 and DMA=5. This resolve my
    problem and no more Daq_Op() error messages. I hope this will help. Jack

  • Backup/Recovery from web application

    Hello guys,
    I am using Oracle 9i as DB and Oracle 9iAS for web application server. I want to provide Backup and Recovery functionality to the user via web. I don't know any thing in this regard.
    Is it possible that we can take backup and recovery from web application?
    Is there any alternative for this function.
    any other comments will be appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Read this article in order to get an idea about Java Stored Procedures.
    Oracle Developer JAVA STORED PROCEDURES
    Simplify with Java Stored Procedures
    By Kuassi Mensah
    Use Java stored procedures to bridge SQL, XML, Java, and J2EE and Web Services.
    Stored procedures allow a clean separation of persistence logic that runs in the database tier from business logic that runs in the middle tier. This separation reduces overall application complexity and increases reuse, security, performance, and scalability.
    A major obstacle, however, for widespread adoption of stored procedures is the set of various proprietary, database-dependent implementation languages that different database vendors use. The use of Java-based stored procedures fixes this concern. Oracle has implemented ANSI standards that specify the ability to invoke static Java methods from SQL as procedures or functions. This implementation is called simply "Java stored procedures."
    In this article, you will learn how Java stored procedures help simplify and increase the performance of your business logic and extend database functionality. I'll show how Oracle enables the use of Java stored procedures within the database. I'll also look at how Java stored procedures access data, and show how to create a basic Java stored procedure.
    PL/SQL or Java
    When you think of Oracle stored procedures, you probably think of PL/SQL. Oracle, however, has provided Java support in the database since Oracle8i, to offer an open and portable alternative to PL/SQL for stored procedures. I can hear the $64,000 question: "How do I choose between PL/SQL and Java? Should I forget all the things I've been told about PL/SQL and move on to the greener Java pastures?"
    Both languages are suitable for database programming, and each has its strengths and weaknesses. In deciding which language to use, here's a general rule of thumb:
    Use PL/SQL for database-centric logic that requires seamless integration with SQL and therefore complete access to database objects, types, and features.
    Use Java as an open alternative to PL/SQL for database independence, but also for integrating and bridging the worlds of SQL, XML, J2EE, and Web services.
    OracleJVM Lets You Run Java within the Database
    Since Oracle8i, Release 1 (Oracle 8.1.5), Oracle has offered a tightly integrated Java virtual machine (JVM) that supports Oracle's database session architecture. Any database session may activate a virtually dedicated JVM during the first Java code invocation; subsequent users then benefit from this already Java-enabled session. In reality, all sessions share the same JVM code and statics—only private states are kept and garbage collected in an individual session space, to provide Java sessions the same session isolation and data integrity capabilities as SQL operations. There is no need for a separate Java-enabled process for data integrity. This session-based architecture provides a small memory footprint and gives OracleJVM the same linear SMP scalability as the Oracle database.
    Creating Java Stored Procedures
    There are a few steps involved in turning a Java method into a Java stored procedure. These include loading the Java class into the database using the loadjava utility, and publishing the Java methods using a call specification (Call Spec) to map Java methods, parameter types, and return types to their SQL counterparts. The following section shows how to do this.
    I'll use a simple Hello class, with one method, Hello.world(), that returns the string "Hello world":
    public class Hello
    public static String world ()
    return "Hello world";
    The Loadjava Utility
    Loadjava is a utility for loading Java source files, Java class files, and Java resource files; verifying bytecodes; and deploying Java classes and JAR files into the database. It is invoked either from the command line or through the loadjava() method contained within the DBMS_JAVA class. To load our Hello.class example, type:
    loadjava -user scott/tiger Hello.class
    As of Oracle9i Release 2, loadjava allows you to automatically publish Java classes as stored procedures by creating the corresponding Call Specs for methods contained in the processed classes. Oracle provides Oracle9i JDeveloper for developing, testing, debugging, and deploying Java stored procedures.
    The Resolver Spec
    The JDK-based JVM looks for and resolves class references within the directories listed in the CLASSPATH. Because Oracle database classes live in the database schema, the OracleJVM uses a database resolver to look for and resolve class references through the schemas listed in the Resolver Spec. Unlike the CLASSPATH, which applies to all classes, the Resolver Spec is applied on a per-class basis. The default resolver looks for classes first in the schema in which the class is loaded and then for classes with public synonyms.
    loadjava -resolve <myclass>
    You may need to specify different resolvers, and you can force resolution to occur when you use loadjava, to determine at deployment time any problems that may occur later at runtime.
    loadjava -resolve -resolver "((* SCOTT) (foo/bar/* OTHERS)
    (* PUBLIC))"
    Call Spec and Stored Procedures Invocation
    To invoke a Java method from SQL (as well as from PL/SQL and JDBC), you must first publish the public static method through a Call Spec, which defines for SQL the arguments the method takes and the SQL types it returns.
    In our example, we'll use SQL*Plus to connect to the database and define a top-level Call Spec for Hello.world():
    SQL> connect scott/tiger
    SQL> create or replace function helloworld return
    VARCHAR2 as language java name 'Hello.world () return
    java.lang.String';
    Function created.
    You can then invoke the Java stored procedure as shown below:
    SQL> variable myString varchar2[20];
    SQL> call helloworld() into :myString;
    Call completed.
    SQL> print myString;
    MYSTRING
    Hello world
    Java stored procedures are callable, through their Call Spec, from SQL DML statements (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, SELECT, CALL, EXPLAIN PLAN, LOCK TABLE, and MERGE), PL/SQL blocks, subprograms, and packages, as well as database triggers. The beauty of Call Spec is that stored procedure implementations can change over time from PL/SQL to Java or vice versa, transparently to the requesters.
    Call Spec abstracts the call interface from the implementation language (PL/SQL or Java) and therefore enables sharing business logic between legacy applications and newer Java/J2EE-based applications. At times, however, when invoking a database-resident Java class from a Java client, you may not want to go through the PL/SQL wrapper. In a future release, Oracle plans to provide a mechanism that will allow developers to bypass the Call Spec.
    Advanced Data-Access Control
    Java stored procedures can be used to control and restrict access to Oracle data by allowing users to manipulate the data only through stored procedures that execute under their invoker's privileges while denying access to the table itself. For example, you can disable updates during certain hours or give managers the ability to query salary data but not update it, or log all access and notify a security service.
    Sharing Data Logic Between Legacy and J2EE Applications
    Because legacy applications and J2EE applications both invoke stored procedures through the Call Spec, the same data logic can be shared between J2EE and non-J2EE worlds. Thanks to Call Spec, this data logic can be shared regardless of the implementation language used (whether PL/SQL or Java).
    Autogeneration of Primary Keys for BMP Entity Beans
    When using BMP for EJB entity beans, a bean instance can be uniquely identified by the auto-generated primary key associated with the newly inserted data as a return value for ejbCreate(). You can retrieve this value within ejbCreate() in one database operation by using a stored procedure that inserts the corresponding data and retrieves or computes the primary key. Alternatively, you could insert the data and retrieve the corresponding key (or ROWID) in one SQL statement, using the RETURN_GENERATED_KEYS feature in JDBC 3.0. However, the stored procedure approach is more portable across JDBC driver versions and databases.
    You can implement this pattern with these three steps:
    Create the Java stored procedure, defining a public static Java method insertAccount() within a public GenPK class. This method will insert data, compute a unique key (by passing out a sequence number), and return the computed key as primary key.
    Define the Call Spec.
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE insertAccount(owner IN
    varchar, bal IN number, newid OUT number)
    AS LANGUAGE JAVA NAME 'GenPK.insertAccount(
    java.lang.String [])';
    Invoke the stored procedure within ejbCreate().
    Public AccountPK ejbCreate(String ownerName, int balance) throws CreateException
    try {
    CallableStatement call = conn.prepareCall{
    "{call insertAccount(?, ?, ?)}"};          
    return new AccountPK(accountID);
    Custom Primary Key Finders for CMP Entity Beans
    Finder methods are used for retrieving existing EJB entity bean instances. Primary key finders allow you to retrieve a uniquely identified EJB instance. For CMP entity beans, the EJB container automatically generates the primary key finder findByPrimaryKey() method, based on declarative description. In some situations, however, you might need more control; for example, you may need a specialized finder such as findByStoredProcKey(). In these situations, you can use Java stored procedures in conjunction with an object relational framework (such as Oracle9i Application Server [Oracle9iAS] TopLink) to implement a custom primary key finder method. After you define the EJB finder as a REDIRECT or NAMED finder, TopLink will generate the SQL query for retrieving the bean instance.
    Data-Driven EJB Invocation
    In a data-driven architecture, business logic invocation can be triggered as a result of database operations (such as inserts, updates, or deletes). A Java stored procedure implementing the data logic can be declared as a database trigger to invoke EJBs running in a middle-tier J2EE application server. You can make EJB calls by using either standard remote method invocation (RMI) over Interoperable Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP), using a J2EE 1.3 compatible server, or RMI over a vendor-specific transport protocol (such as ORMI with Oracle9iAS/OC4J or RMI over T3 with BEA WebLogic). Each application server vendor has its own optimized protocol while providing RMI over IIOP for interoperability. Oracle9iAS supports both RMI calls over IIOP and ORMI protocols.
    Data-Driven Messaging
    Oracle9i Database embeds Advanced Queuing (AQ), which is an integrated, persistent, reliable, secure, scalable, and transactional message-queuing framework. Oracle exposes AQ features to Java developers through the standard Java Messaging System (JMS) API. Java stored procedures can invoke AQ operations through the JMS interface to allow fast, intra-session, scalable, data-driven messaging.
    Java stored procedures can use JMS to invoke AQ operations. You can implement this pattern in four steps:
    Create and start the JMS Queue (to do so, embed the following operations within a SQL script):
    execute dbms_aqadm.create_queue_table(queue_table =>
    'queue1', queue_payload_type =>
    'SYS.AQ$_JMS_TEXT_MESSAGE', comment => 'a test queue',
    multiple_consumers => false, compatible => '8.1.0');
    execute dbms_aqadm.create_queue( queue_name => 'queue1',
    queue_table => 'queue1' );
    execute dbms_aqadm.start_queue(queue_name => 'queue1');
    Create the Java stored procedure (a code snippet is shown):
    public static void runTest(String msgBody)
    try
    // get database connection
    ora_drv = new OracleDriver();
    db_conn = ora_drv.defaultConnection();
    // setup sender (cf online code sample)
    // create message
    s_msg = s_session.createTextMessage(msgBody);
    // send message
    sender.send(s_msg);
    s_session.commit();
    // receive message
    r_msg = (TextMessage) receiver.receive();
    r_session.commit();
    // output message text
    String body = r_msg.getText();
    System.out.println("message was '"+body+"'");
    Create the Call Spec:
    create or replace procedure jmsproc (t1 IN VARCHAR)
    as language java name 'jmsSample.main (java.lang.String[])';
    Invoke the stored procedure:
    call jmsproc('hello');
    Database-Assisted Web Publishing (Cache Invalidation)
    One of the common issues application architects must face is how to cache database information reliably to increase overall system performance. JCACHE is an upcoming standard specification (JSR 107) that addresses this problem. It specifies an approach for temporary, in-memory caching of Java objects, including object creation, shared access, spooling, invalidation, and consistency across JVMs. It can be used to cache read-mostly data such as product catalogs and price lists within JSP. Using JCACHE, most queries will have response times an order of magnitude faster because of cached data (in-house testing showed response times about 15 times faster).
    In order to track all the changes to the origin data and refresh the cached data, a Java stored procedure is attached to a table as a trigger. Any change to this table will result in the automatic invocation of this stored procedure, which in turn will call out a defined JSP to invalidate the JCACHE object that maps its state to the database table. Upon invalidation, the very next query will force the cache to be refreshed from the database. Next Steps

    Extending Database Functionality
    One of the great things about running Java code directly in the database is the ability to implement new functionality by simply loading the code or library and using the Call Spec to make the entry points (public static methods) available to SQL, PL/SQL, Java, J2EE, and non-Java APIs. Oracle9i Database customers can easily extend database functionality. Oracle itself leverages this capability for new utilities and packages such as the XML Developer Kits (XDKs).
    Bridging SQL, PL/SQL, Java, J2EE, .NET, and XML
    The Oracle XDK is written in Java and exposes its public methods as Java stored procedures, extending the database's XML programmability. SQL, PL/SQL, Java, J2EE, and non-Java (.NET) business logic all have access to the XML parser, the XSLT processor, the XPath engine, and XML SQL Utility (XSU).
    The XML parser is accessible through the xmlparser and xmldom packages. XSU is a Java utility that generates an XML document from SQL queries or a JDBC ResultSet, and writes data from an XML document into a database table or view. Using XSU, XML output can be produced as Text, DOM trees, or DTDs. XSU is exposed to PL/SQL through the dbms_xmlquery and dbms_xmlsave packages.
    Conclusion
    The integration of the Oracle database with a Java VM enables the creation of portable, powerful, database-independent data logic and persistence logic. The loose coupling of business logic that runs in the middle tier with data logic that runs in the database tier improves application scalability, performance, flexibility, and maintenance.

  • Customize OEM Grid Console screens to exclude "Backup/Recovery" from Maint

    We need to be able to exclude some features in the OEM Web Console.
    For example, the features such as:
    "Backup/Recovery" feature and also the "Patch" link in the "Deployments" feature.
    Help. How can I do this?

    Hi,
    you cannot remove those topics from the console. What an account can do and what it cannot do depends on the privileges of that account. Backup/Recovery needs the SYSDBA role, every action will fail started by a user not having this privilege. Someone who wants to patch needs OS access to the target machine. So don't give 'normal' users such access rights , they can see the features, but they cannot use them.

  • Problem following full system backup recovery from TM

    Hi All,
    In addition to other Mac computers I also own an iMac G5. The original hard drive that came with the machine was starting to show signs of "fatigue" so I decided to get a replacement drive.
    After putting in the new drive (500gb) I booted my computer using the Leopard install DVD and selected the "restore from time machine backup" under utilities. I went through the process of finding my time capsule->backup->restoring the full thing. I left it going over night so I don't actually know how long it took. Nevertheless, in the morning the process was done. Happily, I restarted my mac and got the grey screen with the apple logo in the middle. The spinning progress circle appeared and started going around. After ~10-15 seconds the screen went black and the mac rebooted itself. The same thing happened over and over and the only way to stop this was to physically turn off the computer.
    Here is some additional information for those with a good idea what is going on:
    1) If I install a clean Leopard system everything works. The system gets installed and the computer boots normally.
    2) After restoring from time capsule (computer continues to reboot itself) I tried doing an "archive and install" from the install DVD. I reasoned that the problem likely lies somewhere within the system booting process so if that is corrupted in one way or the other putting only a new system (and archiving the old one) may allow me to boot the machine and access my user data. Long story, after going through the full recovery process I get an error that the system was installed but that there was some error so the user information could not be used. Regardless, the computer still continuously reboots itself upon startup.
    3) I ran Diskwarrior on the recovered time capsule backup. Some very minor errors were found and corrected in personal files that have nothing to do with the boot process (actually, files I have not touched in ages). Directory structure etc. was fine. This did not help however to solve the problem.
    4) If I boot my Mac in "safe" or "verbose" mode the screen goes black and I start getting the details of the boot process. (I do not have a copy of the text). Rather quickly it reaches a point where it say something about the HD. It seems to be checking something since the process is "hanging". Afterwards there is a whole quick list of things that the Mac goes through and then follows the dreaded reboot. This goes too fast to actually see what is the last step. (is there a way to slow/freeze the process?)
    Is there anyone out there that has an idea on how to solve this issue?
    thanks
    iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.5.5) 1GB RAM

    Thanks for your post.
    I did forget to mention in my initial post that I did try to recover my time machine backup from older dates. I tried a backup from one week, one month, and two months ago. The problem persists.
    I am avoiding the second option you raised (installing a clean system and migrating my data) and keeping that as a last option. The main reason is that in addition to the data I have I would like to avoid having to install all the applications.
    If worse comes I'll take that route. Hopefully, a good suggestion will come up.

  • Upgrading Imac from 10.5.8 to Snow leopard, will I be able to bring back programs like photoshop from my old backup to the new operating system without the program disc, if so how?

    So my imac has the older version 10.5.8 on it and in order to use some programs I need to upgrade to snow leopard. I made a full back up on my external harddrive already, now I need to repair the disc of the computer because it will not verify. So then that way I can clear it completely then, then install snow leopard. But I need to be able to bring back my programs like adobe photoshop, so will I be able to bring that back into snow leaopard with out a install disc? and if so how do i do that with out backing up the comp from my back up. So i can keep my memory down.. thanks for the help

    The photoshop is elements 6, versions 6.0.  and the computer had only 2gb of ram but I just upgraded to the 4gb to see if thatd help it from freezing up all the time and maybe go a little faster.

  • Backups Recovery from Failed Time Machine Disk

    Hello;
    I have been experiencing a serious problem since this April, tried everything I can do with no sign of success. So I though to ask you guys, hopefully you will be able to help or at least guide me to whom can help.
    Well, it is a long story, but not to bother you with it and since I know you are not willing to go to bed now, I will just give you a timeline and if you feel like want to know more about a scene, tell me and I will narrate...
    - I have MBA 256GB and 1.5TB Seagate GoFlex for Mac, which was used mainly for Time Machine, according to "backups.backupdb" it contains 75 backups.
    - Due to accidental unplugging, it failed. First I was seeing error that I have to backup this drive, then it was totally unreadable on Mac but works on Win and Linux, then after a while it stooped working even on Win, but still working on Linux.
    - I tried many solutions to fix the drive/disk without formatting, since I had no alternative media to backup the drive to before formatting. None worked.
    - A month ago, I bought the new 2TB Time Capsule. Then using Linux terminal I managed to copy the whole "backups.backupdb" folder to another disk; however, after copying I found its size 65.5GB And obviously when Time Machine was used to browse these bacups, it did not find any!
    - Used Data Rescue 3 to clone an image for the whole Seagate disk, it is 1.5TB.
    - While the Seagate is not yet formatted, I used Data Rescue 3 to scan it for the lost files inside, and it found everything already there; but the "backups.backupdb" was 14.1TB! I do know why or how!!
    - I tried to format the Seagate, they reused Data Rescue 3 to scan it, and the result was the same.
    - I tried to mount the cloned image, of course the drive was not mounted since it is corrupted but the disk was attached, and reused Data Rescue 3 to scan it, and the result was the same for the third time. No wonders for me, I know the three cases maybe identical.
    Finally, here is what I have now:
    - Formatted and readable 1.5TB Seagate disk.
    - Cloned 1.5TB image from the Seagate disk, before formatting.
    - 2TB Time Capsule, 1.5TB of it is occupied by the cloned image file.
    - Additional 500GB and 1TB extrenal disks.
    - I also have an iPhone, new wallet, and other irrelevant stuff!
    And all what I think about is way to browse the cloned DMG so that I can extract my REAL "backups.backupdb" folder.
    Does any of you have a clue how to do that?
    Or any other method to recover my backups?
    Once more, there is details for every part, just tell me if you want to know more.

    Then using Linux terminal I managed to copy the whole "backups.backupdb" folder to another disk
    You can't copy Time Machine backups that way, unless you used asr(8), which I don't think you did.
    The "GoFlex" device accounts for a disproportionate number of reports on this site of problems with Time Machine. I suggest you stop using it for backing up.
    Delete whatever you copied to the Time Capsule and start a new backup. I strongly recommend that you also back up to a locally-attached hard drive (not the GoFlex) at least some of the time, as network backups are less reliable. You should have more than one backup anyway.

  • Backup recovery from dead Windows 7 32-bit machine to new Windows 7 64- bit machine.

    My windows 7 32-bit laptop (Toshiba Satillite) stopped working suddenly due to a damaged motherboard. Having been told that a new motherboard would cost more than a new computer i decided to buy a new laptop. My new laptop (also a Toshiba Satillite) has
    windows 7 64-bit installed on it.
    Having setup my new laptop, i need to restore some files (Emails, internet favourites etc) from the last backup i made of my broken laptop. This backup was made in November 2011 and is saved on my external harddrive. 
    Can anyone tell me how i get these files from the backup onto my new Windows 64-bit computer?
    Thanks for you help

  • HP OfficeJet 8500A Premium doesn't print from wireless (operating system is XP with service pack 3)

    From all indications, my HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A Premium is connected to the network. But, when I send an item to print from my iPhone via email or from my computer via email, all I get is a message that says my print job has been received, but my printer is busy printing other stuff--which it isn't.
    I have the HP ePrint app on my iPHone, and I can sit near the ocmputer and printer and print a picture from my iPhone using this app. But I cannot print using the printer's email address. and, yes, I've double checked the address. 
    Any ideas? thanks

    Hi there, when you check the printer job history in your ePrintCenter account what do you see? Is there a record of the failed print jobs? Here's a link to a post with some troubleshooting steps for ePrint connectivity issues. Take a look at the suggestions here and try them in the order they are presented http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/ePrint-Print-Apps-Mobile/ePrint-Apps-Connectivity-Troubleshooting-Pleas...

  • Removing OS9 from the operating system

    My emac is running 10.3.9. I have a 1 GHz power PC G4. I have a 1GB Sdram with a 60 Gb hard drive that only has 5.5 Gb left of usable space. Can I remove the 2 folders in the mac hard drive that contain
    the desktop OS9 and applications OS9 without causing major problems? I need to free up more space so the computer will work faster and I can upgrade the system software to a least 10.4.11. Any suggestions please? Julia

    My OS9 system folder is only ~250MB. Unless your OS9 applications folder is really stuffed, I don't think you'd gain much by removing either. You need to free up several gig and I imagine that evicting the OS9 stuff would gain you less than a gig.
    It's more likely that some other folder is hogging your space. Look at this article:
    http://thexlab.com/faqs/freeingspace.html
    for suggestions on finding what's taking up space and what can be safely removed.

  • How Forms can execute operating system files

    How can we create a button which when pressed can execute an exe file from the operating system....
    Please help me soon

    That's very simple.
    Check the host built-in.
    You may have something like the following:
    PROCEDURE run_rep (x_file in varchar2) IS
    -- runs a report not using run_product
    -- thus not opening reports background engine
    cmdstr varchar2(200);
    the_username varchar2(20);
    the_password varchar2(20);
    the_connect varchar2(20);
    pl_id paramlist;
    begin
    the_username := Get_Application_Property(USERNAME);
    the_password := Get_Application_Property(PASSWORD);
    the_connect := Get_Application_Property(CONNECT_STRING);
    cmdstr:='R30RUN32.EXE module='&#0124; &#0124;
    replace(x_file, '.rep', '')&#0124; &#0124;'.rep userid='&#0124; &#0124;
    the_username&#0124; &#0124;'/'&#0124; &#0124;the_password&#0124; &#0124;'@'&#0124; &#0124;the_connect&#0124; &#0124;' usesdi=yes';
    host (cmdstr);
    END;
    This is something that really works.
    In like manner you may run any OS command.
    If you wish the command not to display anything on screen, just do:
    host(cmdstr, no_screen);
    RTM first.
    Best of luck,
    BD
