Can we take Incremental backups without Level 0 backups

Kindly share the procedure if any by which we can initiate an incremental backup without Level 0 backup

Kindly share the procedure if any by which we can initiate an incremental backup without Level 0 backup
There is NO such procedure.
You can't 'increment' something that doesn't exist can you?
Please increment the previous number by 1. Can you do that? Of course not because there IS no previous number.
BY DEFINITION (see the doc) an incremental backup for any level but 0 REQUIRES a previous backup:
an incremental backup copies only those data blocks that have changed since a previous backup
A level 1 incremental backup can be either of the following types:
A differential incremental backup, which backs up all blocks changed after the most recent incremental backup at level 1 or 0
A cumulative incremental backup, which backs up all blocks changed after the most recent incremental backup at level 0
Incremental backups are differential by default.

How can i take money out without a bank account

How can i take money from my paypal balance and add it to my credit card ? my credit card is linked to my paypal and i do not have a bank account. some please help

Hi ,
Welcome to the Community Forums!
Great question! Here’s how to withdraw money from your PayPal account by check:
Log in to your PayPal account.
Click Transfer to your bank under your PayPal balance.
Click Request a check by mail instead.
Your check should arrive in 1-2 weeks.
After you’ve requested a withdrawal, it can’t be canceled.
The minimum you can withdraw by check is $1.51 USD.
There’s a $1.50 USD fee for each check withdrawal.
Withdrawals are converted to U.S. Dollars.
Before you withdraw money by check, you must confirm an address or become Verified by adding and confirming a bank account. You can confirm your address and request a check immediately by clicking Add an Address.
Checks can be cashed or deposited. If you don't deposit your check within 180 days of the date of issuance, we'll return the money to your balance (minus a fee).
I hope this info helps!
Cute ferret BTW!

Can't retrieve purchased music without a backup...

even though I have a reciept in my email showing that I made a purchase for a particular album. I have an order confirmation number. Can anyone verify wether or not this means that I have to purchase the album again or just enter my information and retrieve my purchase. HELP! This should not be a difficult/costly fix. Surely, if one has proof of a purchase, one can just retrieve the info and restock it in one's library without having to BUY the item AGAIN.

I have to purchase the album again
Probably. Creating the backup was your responsibility.

Apple pays a royalty for each song download, so they usually require that you need to pay as well. Click here if you want to ask anyway.

How can I recover deleted photos without iTunes backup, How can I recover deleted photos without iTunes backup

I am a new user to the ipad Purchased a mini. Took prom pictures and promptly deleted them from my Camera Roll. I have not backed up to iTunes. Is there a way to recover them from my mini?

Even if you haven’t backed up your iPad with iTunes manually, iTunes might have backed up it automatically each time you sync your iPad with iTunes. If you have enabled iCloud, every time, your iPad is connected to Wifi and a power source, and the screen is locked, iCloud will automatically backup your photos. So try to restore the deleted photos from iTunes or iCloud backup first if the backups were created before the deletion.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If you don’t want to restore your iPad with an out-of-date backup, erase all the content and settings on your iPad, and go back to an older iOS version, try to extract your iPad photos from your iTunes or iCloud backup with the iPhone backup extractor.
Other than restoring from iTunes or iCloud backup, there are still at least 3 other solutions for you to recover deleted photos on iPhone (also works for iPad):
Extracting from previous iTunes backup;
Retrieving directly from iPhone;
Copying from other backups.

Backup RMAN Incremental Level 1 without Level 0 - 10gR2

Hi,
I'm a bit confused after some tests.
The Question: It's mandatory to perform backup incremental level 0 before the level 1 using Oracle 10gR2 ?
On Oracle 11.2 it's mandatory but on Oracle 10.2.0.5 I don't know.
Test on 11.2. If doesn't exists level 0 rman take care about it and perform automaticaly level 0 before level1
RMAN> backup incremental level 1 database;
Starting backup at 29-APR-11
using channel ORA_DISK_1
no parent backup or copy of datafile 1 found
channel ORA_DISK_1: starting incremental level 0 datafile backup set
channel ORA_DISK_1: specifying datafile(s) in backup set
...Docs said:
Incremental backups capture only those blocks that change between backups in each datafile.
In a typical incremental backup strategy, a level 0 incremental backup is used as a starting point. A level 0 backup captures all blocks in the datafile.
So, on Oracle 10.2.0.5 this not happen like on 11.2:

Hi Gokhan,
Thank you for point this.
After spending a time studying about this I find out this:
Your expanation apply only in Oracle 10gR1/R2.
Because there is differences between RMAN Version 10gR1/R2 and 11gR1/R2 about Incremental Level 1 and this confuse me.
Oracle 10gR1/R2 run only one backup incremental level 1 even if level 0 not exists .
Oracle 11gR1/R2 run two backups incremental if level 0 not exists. i.e level 0 first and after that level 1.
Oracle 10gR2
If no level 0 backup is available, then the behavior depends upon the compatibility mode setting. If compatibility is >=10.0.0, RMAN copies all blocks changed since the file was created, and stores the results as a level 1 backup. In other words, the SCN at the time the incremental backup is taken is the file creation SCN.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/bkup004.htm
Thats means wich RMAN run level 0 with name level 1. (i.e: Only one Backup) This is confuse.
Oracle 11gR1
If no level 0 backup is available in either the current or parent incarnation, then the behavior varies with the compatibility mode setting. If compatibility is >=10.0.0, RMAN copies all blocks that have been changed since the file was created. Otherwise, RMAN behaves as it did in previous releases, by generating a level 0 backup.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/backup.111/b28270/rcmcncpt.htm#BRADV89500
Oracle 11gR2
If no level 0 backup is available in either the current or parent incarnation, then the behavior varies with the compatibility mode setting. If compatibility is >=10.0.0, RMAN copies all blocks that have been changed since the file was created. Otherwise, RMAN generates a level 0 backup.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmcncpt.htm#BRADV89500
Thats means wich RMAN run (automatically) level 0 first after finish level 0 backup RMAN run level 1 backup (i.e Two Backups). This seems right.

Levi Pereira

Incremental level backup

If I take incremental level 0 backup on Monday, full database image copy backup on Tuesday, incremental level 1 on Wednesday and Incremental level 2 backup on Thursday;
Can i do complete recovery on Friday by applying incremental level 1 & 2 backup on the image copy backup???

Your first incremental level 1 will have all the changes since the incremental level 0. The fact that you took an image copy will not be considered by that backup.
was your image copy taken when the db was cleanly shut down? Did it include the control files?

Is it possible to recover my data from iCloud backup without working wifi? I have as many other upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2 with the result that the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth no longer works. However, i can connect to iTunes via cable but there is wrong version of backup.

Answer is no.
If you want the iCloud backup you have to have n internet connection, thus WiFi.
The not working WiFi has happened with quite a number of users.
It is not exactly clear what is the cause but there are suggestions to clear it up:
Some people have had success by removing an apostrophe from the iPhone name. If your iPhone is called something like “John’s iPhone” then this might work. Go to Settings > General > About > Name and change it to something with no apostrophe.
Some people have reported success by putting the iPhone into Airplane mode and then going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings, but the problem may return.
You could also try going to Settings > Control Center and disable Access on Lock Screen then turn your iPhone off and on again.
Make sure that your router firmware is up to date.
Try backing up your iPhone and then restoring it. Check how to factory reset an iPhone for details.
If nothing is working for you, try contacting Apple or take your iPhone into an Apple Store.
Succes, Lex

How can I view the photos contained in a backup without restoring my iPhone?

I've had a new iPhone for a while now, and have recently remembered that I had backed up quite a few photos on iCloud in the past. I can see that my backup takes up a lot of memory through the iCloud app for windows.
My question is: How can I view a backup without using it to restore my iPhone. I don't currently have a mac, only PC and and iPhone.
Thanks.

You cannot.
If the backup is local (not iCloud) you might be able to using a 3rd party tool.

HT201250 The initial backup is taking 2 days. Can I stop and restart without any issues?

Just got an iomega external hard disk backup and the initial backup is said to take two days. Can I stop and restart without any issues?

On a big backup, the initial estimate is often wrong and gets better after a little while. But, yeah, there is a "Stop backing up" command in the Time Machine menu, right? That is safe as far as I know.

How can I take my iPhone & iPad backups from my iMac at home with me while travelling using my Macbookair (128Gb SSD) with an ext. HD?

How can I take my iPhone & iPad backups from my iMac at home with me while travelling using my Macbookair (128Gb SSD) with an ext. HD? I want to continue to back up my devices including those of my wife while travelling without using the cloud and not returing home for several weeks.
Any ideas or solutions?
Thanks for your help.

You can use any Mac with a recent copy of iTunes to back up an iPhone or iPad. It doesn't have to be the one you usually synch with, so long as you don't let it try to do a synch.
Just take fresh backups on the MBA. As for how to get the backups onto the external drive, I'll have to leave that to others; I've never tried.

Is it possible to take a full backup without shutting down an instance?(10g

Hi. everyone.
Is it possible to take a full backup without shutting down an instance?
The db version is 10gr2.
As far as I know, in order to take a full backup of a database,
one need to shutdown a database.
Our db environment is a RAC environment which has two nodes.
Yesterday, I heard from a hardware vendor that we do not need to shutdown
instances(2-nodes) in order to take a full backup.
Best Regards.

Hi,
>>As far as I know, in order to take a full backup of a database, one need to shutdown a database.
In fact, a database operating in NOARCHIVELOG mode is necessary to shutdown the database in order to perform a full backup (Cold Backup), but otherwise a database that is operating in ARCHIVELOG mode, then is possible to perform a full database backup with the database in a open state. (Hot Backup)

It is better to have the TC as part of the main network in bridge. You do not need to run wireless.
If you want to use the TC plugged in by ethernet and still use wireless for internet, that is possible but the setup is rather more complicated.. the computer must not get confused about which device to use as a gateway or dns server.
See info in this thread on setting this up.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4817218?tstart=30
I need to add.. a USB drive would be cheaper, faster and more reliable. It is really poor use of a TC.

How can i restore old backup without deleting my existing data

how can i restore old backup without deleting my existing data. unfortunately i have deleted few of my old photos and restored them from my old backup. i got the deleted photos but lost my recent data and photos. how can i get those too.

You cannot. However, if your back up is through iTunes on your computer and you do an internet search for something like "iPhone BackUpExtractor", I believe there is software that will help you access the SQL database that is your back up. You may be able to pull out what you need.
Once you restore from a back up, any data that was on the phone is gone.
