Backup/Restore Tables

hi experts,
How can I Backup/Restore MaxDB Tables? Actually I want to copy Tables along data from instance to another.
Please give me step by step procedure to achieve the task.
thanks in advance

Hello,
to backup and restore a database you can use the dbmcli http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_7/44/dcdbec10916c31e10000000a114a6b/content.htm.
When you want to use the loader to backup some tables you have to keep in mind that the loader is an ETL tool and was not designed for backup purposes.
Things like consistence between tables are not guaranteed and you have to resolve this in your application.
The loadercli and the dbmcli can be used via JDBC using the powertoys extension.

  • Backup/restore tablespaces in noarchivelog mode

    In our office there is a oracle 10g box that's used for testing purposes.
    It's only got 1 database, but each user has their own tablespace.
    As it's not a 'live' box, archivelog and flashrecovery have been disabled by the dba probably in favour of speed.
    I have a NUnit test suit that runs across a tablespace, and I am trying to restore the tablespace before each run.
    In noarchivelog mode, RMAN allows me to take the tablespace offline, and create a backup - so far so good.
    Later on, I am able to take the tablespace offline again, and issue a "RESTORE TABLESPACE" command.
    But then I cannot bring the tablespace online without issuing a "RECOVER" command.
    I have tried the NOREDO option but it still says that the file needs a media recovery before it can be brought online.
    Is there a way to bring the tablespace online without applying the REDO logs ?
    Or is tablespace backup/restore not possible because of noarchivelog ?
    Thanks.

    I tried the TTS method, and it was only marginally quicker than a data_only impdp.
    I suspect this is due to the nature of a fresh nunit test database, where the metadata (huge tables structure, stored proc, etc) is often larger than the table contents itself.
    In the grand scheme of things it might even end up slower, as i need to drop the tablespace including contents if i want to use TTS to load up the backed up dbf.
    From the comments I'm guessing that there's no way of just updating the timestamp of the tablespace without applying the REDO logs then ?
    I've tested other methods as well.
    Flash recovery could only work on a table or db level, I can't take the db offline as there are other users on it with their own tablespace/schemas. (it was an old dev's box, we're reusing what we can)
    impdb with the truncate and data_only flag seems to be the only viable option so far, with TTS up for consideration.

  • Erase and sync issues (backup/restore)

    Hello.
    I have an issue with the backup/restore with my iPhone.
    Sometimes, it is difficult to find an answer that fits your problem exactly on the forum!  Lots of good stuff though!
    This post will be little longer than normal, but I need to get all the facts on the table.
    I'll try to keep this brief.  Please hear me out!
    From another post ...
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/12273122
    Kwopau stated ...
    if you do a restore, you only have 2 options, Restore as new, meaning nothing will go on it
    and you will just have to start fresh and no contacts will go in there.
    The other option is "Restore from Back up _______" it will completely restore your phone
    from your last back up and everything will be on there.
    End of quote ...
    Here is my situation.
    I have a 3g 16GB iPhone.
    I am still running IOS 3 (not IOS 4).
    I do not use sync.  I  manually manage the music and books with iTunes.
    I have an HP laptop.
    A while ago, I had to completely rebuild the computer.
    The computer has a new computer and user name (I don't know if this matters in iTune/iPhone matchup)?
    I have not been able to connect the iPhone since then.
    Let me rephrase that.
    I can connect with iTunes.  I can see all that is on the iPhone.
    When I try to add or delete music or books on the iPhone with iTunes or set the manually manage check box, I get the following message ...
    The iPhone "myname's iPhone" is synced with another iTunes library.
    Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with the this iTunes library.
    Most commands appear to be grayed  out,  I can't add or delete anything.
    I do not have anything in current  iTunes library at the moment. 
    My fear is this.
    If I do the erase and sync as suggested  (iPhone message above) to the iPhone and then use the new iTunes library,  will I be able to use the backup (I just created) to restore to the iPhone that I just reset?
    If so, will it have contacts and all the other stuff?
    I can afford to lose the music and books, and perhaps the apps on the iPhone.
    I cannot afford to lose my contact list.
    I need to find another way to backup the contact list, Outlook, etc?
    If there other posts relative to this, please point me to them.
    I am afraid to pull the trigger for fear that iTunes will not recognize the iPhone after the erase and sync and then not allow me to restore.
    Perhaps someone can put my mind at ease and convince me that it will all be good if I proceed!
    Thanks for you time and help in this matter ...
    Bob

    Do you know how to transfer purchases? Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes. Click on the iPad nema on the left side of the iTunes window to select it. Then go to File>Transfer Purchases. That should put all of your purchased iPad content into the iTunes library on the PC.
    Here are instructions in a very short, easy to follow article.
    Transfer iTunes Library to a new computer
    This discussion will be helpful to show you how to make the PC work wTunes from the iPad.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3305461
    This is the discussion from which I borrowed the some of the text in my post from the discussion above.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
    What puzzles me is that if you had updated with the PC, I would have thought that you would have backed up and synced with that PC as well, but read the articles and instructions and post back with questions.
    You can email the pdf files to the iPad, or use iOS file sharing, and open and save them in iBooks or another pdf reader app, but start with getting your stuff onto the PC.

  • Backup/Restore Testing Regimen

    I am coming up with a list of scenarios to test our backups. Here are the scenarios that I can come up with. Can you guys think of more?
    1. Whole database restore to current
    2. whole database restore to point in time
    3. missing datafile
    4. missing control file
    5. restore dropped table to current
    6. restore dropped table to point in time
    Also, I plan to test back ups as often as I can but of course this will depend on the workload one has, but how often do you guys think recovery tests should happen? monthly? quarterly?
    Thanks!

    items 5 and 6 are not restoreable by use of a proper backup. Backups restore data blocks of data files. It has no knowledge of specific objects that may be stored on those blocks. You can restore whole databases, data files, or tablespaces (which really are just an abstraction of a data file). To restore a table, you have to restore the entire database.
    But as the other poster said, if you can do a full db restore, then your backup is good.

    How long do you want to go before you find out you have a bad backup? What is your recovery windows defined in the rman repository?

  • Backup/Restore App -- stores backups where? "Delete record" does what?

    I had used the Backup/Restore app under 4.1.x to backup the table to itself. Upon installing the 4.2.2 update, there was some message about did I want to delete unusable 4.1 Backups? IIRC, I said no. Went into the App to make sure I knew what I was about to "delete" and did a "Delete Backup Record".
    Concern is that free storage changed much less than I expected. Not sure how big the backup would have been but it sure took a lot longer to write than only the hunderd or so MB freed up would suggest.
    Any idea where the locally stored backups are stored ? Went looking with Astro and found nothing obvious...
    Anybody can confirm "Delete Backup Record" actually deletes the backed-up data not just the metadata of it having been done?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Backups are stored in the folder ".semc-fullbackup" on the internal storage or SD-card. This is a hidden folder so you need to select Show hidden files in Astro.
    Deleting a backup from Backup & restore show remove all files in that backup.

  • Backup/restore database with dump file

    Hi everybody,
    I would like to backup/restore my database with Oracle Utility commands(exp/imp) but I can only execute these commands in the machine where database server is being installed.

  • Tablespace Backup & Restore

    Hi Team,
    I am working on the TableSpace Backup & restore operation.
    I can able to take backup of the tablespace using the rman script. Also I can able to restore that table space properly without any errors.
    Now my query is that How can I verify that tablespace is restored properly or not.
    Like in whole database backup & restore , we will create table in database & take a backup of the whole database after that we delete that table. & then we will perfom the Incomplete recovery to get back that table.
    Can we have any method to verify for Tabalespace.?
    Plz comment ,
    Regards,
    S. Tiwari

    Hi edrian,
    Thanks for the reply,
    I had created the table in the EXAMPLE tablespace as testing
    Now after that I had taken the backup of EXAMPLE tablespace using follwing script.
    run
    BACKUP TABLESPACE 'EXAMPLE' FORMAT 'C:\BK\EXAMPLE_%d_%s';
    & its taking the tablespace backup succesfully also .
    Now after that I am dropping that table from the database.
    If I do Incomplete recovey for the EXAMLE tablespace , I am expecting the table back in the database. But its not there in the database.
    I am using Incomplete restore Script as given below.
    run
    RESTORE TABLESPACE "EXAMPLE" UNTIL TIME "to_date('Feb 08 2007 11:54:56','Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";
    Plz comment if I am going wrong anywhere. Also suggest me the proper Incomplete tablespace restore script.

  • Using OEM to backup/restore DB using EMC Avamar (3rd party)

    Hi,
    I'm trying to find a solution for using OEM to backup and restore DB using EMC Avamar software.
    Normally, we can backup/restore DB using Avamar through RMAN CLI using scripts similar to the following:
    connect target /
    run {
    configure controlfile autobackup on;
    set controlfile autobackup format for device type sbt to 'CONTROLFILE.orcl.%F';
    allocate channel c0 type sbt PARMS="SBT_LIBRARY=c:\PROGRA~1\avs\bin\orasbt64.dll" format '%d_%U';
    send '"--prefix=11g/orcl/" "--flagfile=c:\flagfile\avtar-flags.txt" "--bindir=c:\PROGRA~1\avs\bin"';
    backup database plus archivelog delete input;
    release channel c0;
    Where orasbt64.dll is the name of Avamar's 64bit library and flagfile contains some internal flags necessary for backup/restore operations.
    Now, I want to use OEM for the same thing so, what I did was try to specify the Media Management Vendor Library Parameters under Backup Settings in OEM. I saved the following as the parameters:
    "SBT_LIBRARY=c:\PROGRA~1\avs\bin\orasbt64.dll";
    Even after this, the backup script generated by OEM does not contain this parameter. Naturally, backups to EMC Avamar fail.
    I would like answers to these 2 questions:
    1. How to correctly specify the Media Management Vendor Library Parameters?
    2. Is there a way to specify all the parameters (--prefix, flagfile, bindir, PARMS etc.) so that the script generated by OEM is same (or as close as possible) to the one I use for RMAN CLI backups.
    Thanks!

    Hi Anant,
    I'm also having the same issue. It fails because it doesn't understand the "send" command in OEM. Here is the output of the tape backup test:
    RMAN> run {

    4> send "--flagfile=/home/oracle/scripts/backup/my-avtar-flags.txt"';

    When I use TSM it doesn't require the "send" command and it backs up successfully. I guess the other option would be to create an EM job to do the backups. However, this wouldn't populate the EM tables for backup reporting.

  • How do I backup/restore multiple IPhone on one computer

    Hi everyone
    Need some help here. I work as a helpdesk and recently most of the IPhones are now due for upgrade. What is the best way to backup the data from old Iphone and restore to new Iphone for multiple users on one computer?  Basically everyone expects to hand me their old phone and new phone, and when they get the new phone back, the new phone will have the same data as it was on the old one. 
    I have done backup/restore just for myself before. Is there a easier way to do for multiple users on the same computer?
    Any input will be appreciated
    Thanks
    Charlie

    First of all, thanks for quick reply.
    How about backup to icloud and then restore from icloud?  I did not bring it up because I do not want the backup/restore to cripple to network.
    I would normally ask the users to take their old phone and new phone to AT&T store or Apple store to get it done. But as I work in corp office, and all I dealt with are the CEO, CFO, etc. They want the upgrade process done and without them getting involved (I try to keep it that way to make them happy).
    any thoughts?

  • I have a new SIM/service and want to transfer all my contacts from the current 4S to the new SIM in my old 3GS.  I do NOT want to backup/restore the entire phone contents (iTunes or iCloud), JUST the contacts.  How?

    Current phone 4S with service from one provider.  Also have a new SIM with another provider, and want to copy my contacts from the 4S across to my old 3GS which I will be using for a bit as an alternative.  Definitely do not want anything except the contacts copied across so a full backup/restore is NOT what I'm after, and I can't see (in the iTunes backup) how to only do the contacts.

    Sorry, my bungle - from what devices I am used to - these Apple things still have me confused at times.
    The core requirement is the same - to get the contacts from the 4S onto the 3GS without backing up the whole device/apps etc.
    And a second part of that is how to get the contacts onto a SIM for a device that DOES store them there.  No doubt that will be a problem as it only has name/number combos, not all the fruit the iPhone keeps under a contact.  Maybe it can't done.  A simple export to CSV or something that could be edited would suffcie if there were an import tool to get it onto the SIM in the simpler format.

  • Windows Vista 64-bit and the Backup & Restore....

    I've recently found out that Backup & Restore is not supported by Vista 64-bit.  So, all the backups that did not complete and  has the error message (0x8007002), all the backups are of no use.  All of my documents, pictures, music, original
    music materials, etc., are all gone.  Can't even open the error-ed backups!  Can my system be restore to it's original settings before the backup fiasco?  I am at a lost to what can be done! 
    Sincerely (feeling hopeless)

    The only thing you can do is drop your backups and plug your device to your computer to make another backup.

  • Backup restoring procedure in system9

    anybody has documents or links which talks about backup / restore complete system9 products . ?

    Hi,
    I tell what I usually do.
    I have EssBase and its apps in a server, and SharedServices in another one, so that, I have to do different backups.
    First, make a Full backup for the ...\Hyperion folder with any backup tool (ntbackup and/or veritas in my case) and then, differential backups.
    In the other server a use a script to make local copies of the SharedServices folder to mantain 1 copy per day.
    On the other hand, you have to backup you SQL bases. I use de ms SQLServer tool for that.
    This is a copy of my script to backup SharedServices (anyone who "lost" OpenLDAP service knows what I'm talking about..) that I scheduled to run every day. Please note that SharedServices has its own script to backup the directory, and it works fine.
    ++NOTE: %HYPBKP% is a system variable that I set in windows
    echo "OPENLDAP Backup Log File" >SS_BKP.log
    echo "######################" >>SS_BKP.log
    Date /T >>SS_BKP.log
    Time /T >>SS_BKP.log
    echo "######################" >>SS_BKP.log
    cd %HYPBKP%
    RMDIR /S /Q SharedServices-OLD
    REN SharedServices-7 SharedServices-OLD
    REN SharedServices-6 SharedServices-7
    REN SharedServices-5 SharedServices-6
    REN SharedServices-4 SharedServices-5
    REN SharedServices-3 SharedServices-4
    REN SharedServices-2 SharedServices-3
    REN SharedServices-1 SharedServices-2
    REN SharedServices SharedServices-1
    c:\Hyperion\SharedServices\9.3\server\scripts\backup.bat %HYPBKP%\SharedServices
    I hope this help you.
    Good luck
