Closed DB backup, archivec generated

hi
i had to take a tablespace for backup & issued command
ALTER TABLESPACE <tablespacename> BEGIN BACKUP;
during the backup lot of redo entries generated becaz header of datafile is freezed when BEGIN BACKUP- online redo log files are overwritten & two archived log files of 100 MB generted.....
how i will apply these archived log file apply to datafile or to backup,,,,actually i am a little bit confused here
plz. help me or clerify this scenario for me

saniome,
Is this backup just to have a backup of that tablespace or is there something else you are trying to do? (Like move it to another system?)
I am for the moment going to just assume that you are taking the backup just for the purpose of taking the backup. If you restore this tablespace from the backup the controlfiles of the database know what SCN they are currently on and will know from the header of the restored tablespace which SCN it started the backup on. The recovery manager will then use all the archive log files between the to SCNs to recover the tablespace.

You shouldn't specify both "ALL" and "FROM/UNTIL TIME"
Also if you want the archivelogs generated in the last 5 minutes, you should be using FROM TIME.
If you want the archivelogs generated until 5minutes ago (and not the latest archivelogs), you should be using UNTIL TIME.
Hemant K Chitale
I've wondered about the utility of the FROM and UNTIL options for backup of archivelogs. If one is going to back them up, why would one use an option that distinctly introduces the possibility of having gaps - un-backed-up archivelogs? Why would one not simply back up all archives not previously backed up at least once?
I'm sure you'll give me a valid response for a situation for which my imagination fails to see.

Differnce between DB Backup and generate Script

whats the differnce between DB Backup and generating Script of a database.
Please mention the main diffrence as we know while genearating script we can select tables/procedures of our choice instead of having all while in backup it takes full tables and procedures.

Hi Abhishek,
In addition to others’ posts, we need to know that there are different types of
backup in SQL Server, such as full backup, differential backup, log back up, file backup and so on. It is recommended to back up database on a regular basis, as a well-planned backup
and restore strategy helps protect databases against data loss caused by a variety of failures. You can make
maintenance plans to back up database automatically.
However, generating scripts is not a disaster recovery option. If you encounter some failures about database, you cannot get data back by generating scripts.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang

Closing an order by generating proforma invoice

Hi,
is it possible to close an order by generation of proforma invoice? (for cases in which order is opened only in order to generate a proforma invoice for customs purposes only)
if so how - with what type of order, etc

Hi,
cases in which order is opened only in order to generate a proforma invoice for customs purposes only)
--> go to VOV8, select the order type you with to use, then go to Billing Tab and put F5 ( Pro ZForma customer ) in Order-rel.bill.type. And remove all others under billing tab.
You can use quotation for this. Order Type - QT. if you are going to use QT then the settings are already there.
Let us know.

FlexUnit4 - Tests run but runner has to be manually closed and no reports generated.

I am trying out FlexUnit4 and using ant to build the tests.
I built my ant script on the one from the FlexUnit4SampleCIProject.
The test from that project run, the runner automatically closes and the reports are generated, my project however does not close the runner and generate reports.
I am using flexsdk 3.3
What could i be doing wrong?

Morning guys,
Mike and I worked through the race condition issue this evening/morning and new code should be in SVN as you read this post. The short of it was that sometimes the FlashPlayer would spin up faster than the socket on the Java side and data was being lost along the way. We've implemented a handshake between the CIListener and the Ant task so we can guarantee that things are working correctly now. I've also done a shallow refactoring of the code to decouple some responsibilities so we can more easily test things going forward. I've also updated the threading code to use stuff from Java 5, so going back to Java 1.4 will be a pain, but is still feasible with a few extra JARs.
Let us know how it goes.

Automatic closing of SAP GUI generated by RRI in WAD

BW experts,
I am having a showstopper scenario in our project. Basically i have a webbased report produced by WAD 7.0 and it is working correctly. I have an RRI connected to it. The RRI receiver is an ABAP program which we execute based from the item in WAD (i.e document number).
However, it always open 2 browsers. 1 is for the SAP Gui session generated by RRI and 2nd browser is open due to the code we have in our abap which calls a browser (CALL_BROWSER).
My question now is, is there a way to put an IF-THEN condition somewhere, perhaps in javascript, where the 1st SAP gui session can be killed immediately and the 2nd browser opened?
I have already used different components like RRI, ClOSE_WINDOW, Script_item in WAD but with no avail.
Any ideas is highly appreciated.

Hello,
Im glad that you answered me. Your feedback was helpful for me and a source of good news for our project.
I saw the B1DE form generator, it is still axed on the screen painter, and also I saw Ibais project.
I realize that SBO developers need a more powerful tool for developing their add-ons. For the same reason we have started this project and well continue to develop it.
This is not just a .srf generator and converter. A powerful feature is that our visual objects have implemented the business objects from DI API (of course you choose with what business objects the visual objects are associated, obviously for performance reasons). The business logic can be made at the designer level. It is improper to say that they generate code because the code is embedded in the visual objects, and no code line is added. For example a complex choose from list can be made in a few minutes without any code writing. In a month the SBO UI add-on generator will be ready. So you can have the add-on developed with Axel Controls in Windows forms without writing hundreds of lines, and additionally with a click the SBO UI add-on will be generated automatically (srfs, functionality, menu and the .exe). And lets not forget that the Windows forms solution made with Axel Controls has the same feel and look as the SBO.
If you still have ideas or suggestions please post them.

Andrei Baciu.

How to restore a database from backup taken in standby database

Its our environment standard to run backup in standby database.
Now we have to perform refresh production database to UAT database.
I have performed normal refresh/duplicate. Is there any additional procedures need to be followed to perform refresh from standby database backup

RMAN Restoration to New Server with Different Directory and New Database Name
In this case, I have an existing production database with RMAN Level 0 backup:
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 'C:\flash_recovery_area\galaxy\backupsets\autobackup\SAMSUNG-ctl_%F';
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 7 DAYS;

DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED BACKUP DEVICE TYPE DISK;
DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE DEVICE TYPE DISK;
The backupsets will be restored into a new server with different file structure. The database will also be different. In the new server, I have created a blank database (SID or CUSTOM database with the name DBGRID). This is easier so I won't have to create any directories, user ORADIM or create new PWFile.
This document assumes that a blank (starter) database has been created in the new server. The RDBMS version is the same as the source database.
In this example, the source database name is GALAXY and the target database name is DBGRID.
Let me know if you have any feedback or comments. All I want is to share these steps with you and make it better so we can help other DBA's as well.
Steps start here
-->
ORIGINAL DATABASE: GALAXY
DUPLICATE DATABASE: DBGRID
FROM THE SOURCE DATABASE (GALAXY)
1. Backup the database using RMAN incremental backups.
2. Check the RMAN logs generated and look for the result of the command:

Best Practices: What is a best backup plan on BO 4.0

Hi Experts!
I work with BO since 2007. I worked a lot with BO XI 3.1 and now with BI 4.0. I always have a question about the way to make a backup: What is a best backup plan on BO 4.0.
I know de many way to do this, but how I'm a consultant developer and backup usually is not my responsibility, but always I have to advise my clients and users.
The little summary of ways I know on BI 4.0:
- Stop the services and do a backup of repository database and FileStore folder (eventually include the TomCat folder and others BO installation folders)
- Create a job on LCM and a schedule to export a LCMBIAR file
- Use the Upgrade Management Tool to generate a BIAR file by the command line
I found that interesting post of Raphael Branger, but his the best option is to use the 360View, but that software I don't know, and the clients usually want to use the SAP solutions, so the preference is use the BO's way to make backup.
Backup & Recovery in BO 4.0
Note: I agree with Raphael about the old Import Wizard, I don't know why Upgrade Management Tool don't allow to import a biar file that same version of target. It is terrible.
Let me make a the big question: What is a best backup plan on BO 4.0?
I know that this depends of the environment and the many variables, but let us consider the general environment, the standard installation.
Thanks everybody!

Thanks Mrinal and Ajay,
On my experience I always use the full-backup: repository database backup + filestore folder backup (usually I recommend include BO folder installation and TomCat folder too because the custom configurations). That backup is essential, is basic.
But this backup is not flexible.The usual problems on BO's production enviroment is accidental deletion of some reports or objects of BO. Since BO XI R2 I used the "Import Wizard" to generate BIAR files by the command line, I usually create a BAT file with command line to create thats files, however BO 4 Import Wizard was died, now exists "Upgrade Management Tool", but I can create BIAR files by the command line too. Let's suppose a case that the BO user has deleted a report and that user did notified that deletion after 1 month. We don't need to restore all objects of the full-backup of 1 month ago, with BIAR files, we can restore only that report. Thats is the advantage of using BIAR files.
So, my strategy is use the full-backup (repository database + BO installation folder) and create BIAR files.
What do you think about the backup by generating BIAR files?

Windows Backup no longer works. Trying to change settings results in "The parameter is incorrect. (0x80080057)"

I tried to backup my computer and it didn't make any progress for many hours. After a few hours I gave up and closed the backup panel. I restarted the computer and now the panel comes blank with the external backup drive plugged in. If I double click
the backup folder on the external drive and click restore I keep getting the error dialogue, "The parameter is incorrect. (0x80080057)".
If I don't plug in the drive it and click Options > Change backup settings I get the same error dialogue. Note, the backup control panel displays and says the drive is not plugged in and shows the last time I attempted to backup. It says that backup was
complete but some files were skipped. The error code is 0x8100002F.
I tried to solve the problem using: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982736/en-us It did not help.
I have looked into some of the logs and found this:

This is the second to last time I backed up.
Someone else had this problem: http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f299/solved-windows-7-backup-0x80070057-error-546542.html
They had a restore image and could go back to an earlier time. I do not have this option.
What can I do?

Hi,
I doubt this was External harddrive problem. Please check Event log about VSS error log. If there is any error message with VSS.
If so, please refer to the link below for more details about VSS error.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee692290(v=ws.10).aspx
In addition, please also try to backup your system to other location for test if it had same problem. If not, it should be external drive problem.

Time Machine operates, but no changes are recorded in the backups.

Time Machine appears to make a backup each hour, and a new backup file is written. No error messages are produced. However, each new backup file appears to be exactly the same as the previous one. Using the "Get Info" function of the Finder, I can see that, indeed, each backup file on the "Time Machine" backup location records the exact same number of files and bytes as the previous backup file. This started ten days ago, during which time I have created, modified, or deleted several hundred files. When I enter the Time Machine application, I find that none of this activity is recorded in the backups. These results are the same, whether the backup is generated manually or under the automatic hourly schedule.
I am using OS 10.7.5 on an iMac 27" purchased in late 2011. Time Machine is set to back up the files from an internal 250 GB SSD and 2 TB HDD. The backup location (target drive) is an external iOmega 2TB HDD with its own power supply, connected by Firewire 800. This drive is about 14 months old.
The iOmega target drive has 624 GB used and 1.38 TB available space. According to the Time Machine Excluded Items dialogue, the extimated size of a full backup is 443 GB.
When I set Time Machine up about 14 months ago, I identified several folders to exclude from backups, and I have not changed that since. I have checked, and it is exactly the same as when I set it up.
Thanks for suggestions/solutions.

When you replaced your MBP's original HD with the Samsung SSD, how did you originally populate its contents? In other words, did you begin with a new OS X installation, followed by using Setup Assistant and migrating your information from an existing TM backup, or...?
Edit: A persistent bug with this site prevented replies from appearing until I posted one. Since you resolved the problem by reinstalling OS X I'll only suggest you don't use OnyX or any other utility to "clean" anything or perform any other action for that matter. Although I understand you only used OnyX in an effort to address an existing problem, such utilities are only likely to add to or obscure the underlying cause.

How to use the backup database to create report or update testing

Hi,
I have a fully backup of production database in the last month, and I have using Oracle 8.1.7. I want to known how can I use
this backup to generate a new instance so that I can reproduct some report from the last month data or doing some update testing
from the backup database with the both production instance and last month instance is opened at the same time. I have tried to
create a new instance by using the oradim and startup the new sid with mount option and then use the alter database function
to change the datafile name to the new directory. After this i also create the local service name and change to listerner. I can
startup the new instance but when i start the production database. I got the error that I can open the database with exclusive.
I do this in Oracle 7.3.4 and it works. But how can i setting it in Oracle 8.1.7. Anyone can help me and many thanks.

Hi,
Create the Second instance thro' Database Configuration Assistant, and Replace with Back up files.Now you can run two instances at parallel.

Restoring Apps From Backup

So I poked around in here and, while there are a few threads addressing the general question, I don't know enough to take that info and run with it. I thought it'd be safer if I could just present my situation specifically, so there won't be too much room for error.
On the (bad) advice from an Apple technical support guy, I (apparently needlessly) did a clean install on my PowerBook. I backed everything up onto a LaCie drive using SilverKeeper.
My question is: How do I best get my many apps back onto the PowerBook and functioning properly? I know there's more to it than just replacing the Applications folder (or its contents). And I understand the Library folder(s) comes into play. But I'd like to know exactly what to copy from the external drive and where to place it on the PowerBook. The backed-up version of my PowerBook's hard drive looks a bit different so I would like to be as precise as I can.
I know reinstalling is the best thing to do, but it's time-consuming at best and possibly life-derailing at worst!
(If there's anything else anyone thinks I should know before performing this transfer - application-related or otherwise - I'd appreciate the advice!)
Thanks!
15" PowerBook G4 1.67 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Many apps can be simply moved from your backup disk's application folder to the new harddisk.
However there are definitively configuration files and other stuff created by an application that is then lost. It depends upon the application whether or not (and how) it will work.
Anyway, you find most configuration files at these places:
<Boot volume> / Library / Application Support
<User> / Library
<User> / Library / Application Support
You may look into these directories and move all files and folders that sound like being related to an application you want to restore to the new place.
However a clean installation of the software should be preferred (I guess that file associations are not redone by moving apps).
By the way, you state that reinstalling the OS was a bad advise from the Apple technician (I also not trust them ... so if your backup was generated as a clone, why not restoring the entire disk back to original state ? Anyway, since you don't write about the reason for the OS restore, I'm unsure if this would help.

Backup complete with no archivelog

Hi all,
10g and 11g,
achivelog enabled
I want to do a hot backup without generating any acrhivelogs. it this possible?
I want my backupset to be complete as itself and the simplest and the smallest single copy so far,
and no redundancy whatsoever, And it does not need recovery when restored or maybe the least recovery process it can be.
The following are my procedures:
I will tell the users to stop processing at 6pm.
I will shutdown listener.ora
I will shutdown and startup restrict.
I will alter system switch logfile 3 times.
Then run rman backup.
Do you think I will still generate archive logs? My goal really is to avoid recovery during restore.
Any ideas is highly appreciated :)
Thanks,
zxy

I want to do a hot backup without generating any acrhivelogs.Oracle is always doing things in the background.
The only way to have a backup that doesn't require you to apply any archive logs that get generated during the backup is to do a cold backup
