COBRAS Restore to re-hosted server

I need to perform a backup and restore from a Unity 5.x to a Unity Connection 8.x running on UCS. The servers will be running in parallel so the new server will have a new IP address and Hostnames. Can COBRAS be used to perform this backup and restore to a server with a differnt hostname or does COBRAS require the restore to be performed to a server with the same hostname?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for the speedy reply and confirmation. I thought that the restore was a direct input into the Unity Connection database structure independent of the hostname but needed confirmation.
I had looked through the help doc but could not find any information on the restore being independent of the hostname. I thought that I had come across this in either the help file or audio training and re-checked both before posting (to no avail).
Thanks again for the much needed feedback!!!

How to backup Hyper-V host server on DPM 2012 R2

Hi,
I'm about to backup my first Hyper-V host server using DPM 2012. I'm looking for a strategy to back up both the host server and virtual machines. Note: I'm not really interested in backing up all the virtual machines. Many are non-production
or for testing. How do you do it? I was thinking about selecting in the protection group:
- BMR and SS for the Hyper-V host
- The C: volume of the Hyper-V host
- Select the Child partition snapshots of the virtual machines I want to backup.
In my environment, Hyper-V role is installed on the C: drive, but the virtual machines are stored on E:, which I would not backup directly (volumes) since I'm backing up the VMs using Child partition snapshot.
Would I be able to restore my Hyper-V host and the selected VMs with a backup like this?
Anyone want to share how they setup their protection groups for Hyper-V?
Thanks.

No, use full server backup (image) if VM config are stored at default storage (disk C).
Understanding where your virtual machine files are [Hyper-V]
Using this method to perform a full server backup is the recommended method because it captures more data than the other method.

Restore to new host - starting RMAN fails

Server host A died today and took along with it my database "prod", so I restored from tape all of the archive logs and datafiles onto Sever host b. Host b also happens to be the host where my RMAN catalog exists. Now that I have all of the files in place, I plan to restore "prod" to host b using the following script:
run {
until sequence 66774 thread 1;
restore database;
recover database;
alter database open resetlogs:}
However, when I try to get into RMAN to issue this command I get errors. I know I am missing something here, and I suspect it is something small. From the windows command line I set the database sid:
$> set ORACLE_SID=prod
$> echo %ORACLE_SID%
prod
$>rman target /

Thanks, Tony

you need to recovery your controlfiles first in a nomount stage, usually connecting to your catalog.
Then you can do the restore while the db is mounted.
look something like this:
connect target /
connect catalog un/pw
run {
startup nomount;
allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE' ;
set until sequence 1430422 thread 1;
RESTORE CONTROLFILE TO '/orcctl1/oradata/control01.ctl';
REPLICATE CONTROLFILE FROM '/orcctl1/oradata/control01.ctl';
alter database mount;
in a seperate script:
connect target /
connect catalog un/pw
run {
allocate channel t97 type 'SBT_TAPE';
allocate channel t98 type 'SBT_TAPE';
allocate channel t99 type 'SBT_TAPE';
allocate channel t100 type 'SBT_TAPE';
set until sequence 1424320 thread 1;
restore database;
recover database DELETE ARCHIVELOG MAXSIZE 200G;
alter database open resetlogs;
you may need to add a SEND command for nb_ora_serv and nb_ora_client if you use them.

Restore to new host from tape

Hello!
Oracle 10.2.0.2
Linux x86 Red Hat Enterprise
Netbackup 6.0
Netbackup 6.0 MP5
Netbackup Oracle Agent
Production server; 2,5 TB
Hello
Id like to restore a backup from tape to another host
But i am having doubts regarding the restore script, ive done a channel for maintenance with success, so i think netbackup is okey installed.
Now i want to restore a backup to the new host, witch has been pre-configured with same catalogues, and oracle binaries.
Before this script i will manually restore spfile and put the database in nomount, and set DBID
run
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch0 type 'SBT_TAPE';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch1 type 'SBT_TAPE';
RESTORE controlfile from autobackup;
ALTER DATABASE mount;
RESTORE database;
RECOVER database;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch0;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch1;
}When i enter this script, i guess netbackup wont allow me to come and claim a backup from someone else, so i have configured netbackup master server to cllow restore to alternate host, and i have configured this new host to trick netbackup that he is the old one (NB_ORA_CLIENT), but im having doubts about the parms parameter in rman, i think i need to define the policy somewhere, but i dont know where. Have any of you completet a similiar task once, then maybe u can shed light on me.
Thanks!

Hi,
Have you tried the restore? If yes and any errors received, post them to get the help.
Some information is required to finalize the script.
Up to what time you want to restore and recover? depending on it, you have to use "set the until time " clause.
you are trying to restore control file from backup, so "RECOVER database" will not work. have to use "recover database using backup control file until scn/until time '<time>'/until scn". To know about all the options, refer manuals, metalink, etc.
in the env params, I guess policy is not required.
example script:
run
set until time "to_date('10-apr-2010 10:00:00','DD-mon-YYYY hh24:mi:ss')" ;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch0 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(NB_ORA_SERV=master_serv, NB_ORA_CLIENT=client_where_backup_was_taken)';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch1 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(NB_ORA_SERV=see above, NB_ORA_CLIENT=see above)';
RESTORE controlfile from autobackup;
ALTER DATABASE mount;
RESTORE database;
restore archive log from seq <start number> until seq <end seq> ;
RECOVER database using backup control file;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch0;
RELEASE CHANNEL ch1;
The archive logs required for recovery can be identified from your source database v$archived_log based on the recove until time.
Thanks,
SivaOk, i didnt think about that, i guess what i want to do is using backup controlfile until cancel. Wont he go into the tape and find the needed redo logs himself, i did not know that i needed to restore them to my disk before?

Backup / Restore Test on SQL server. Am I right?

Hello Colleagues,
We want to execute the following plan in order to test our backup&restore infrastucture. Please couls you point me if I´m leaving something back?
SQL Server 2005 SAP nw2004s based system (I think that the below procedure is valid no matter the system is Abap standalone, JAVA standalone or ABAP+JAVA standalone)
We want to Stop SAP production System HRP in production host.
Detach HRP SQL server in production Host.
Restore from the last full backup on production Host changing the database name to HRPNEW (logical name and filenames)
Attach the new restored files to the SQL Server 2005 (I think that this point is not needed because the restore will leave the database operational if I mark the corresponding option)
Start Sap System and check that everything is OK inside.
Stop SAP system again
detach HRPNEW database
attach HRP original database
Start SAP system and check
FInally delete db files and log files from HRPNEW database.
What do you think?
Thank you very much in advance!
Regards

Thank you for your response.
But, is it needed if I´m restoring in the production server (same host name) the database with another name?
Or you meant to change the database name in anywhere?
Thanks
Regards!

The grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has expired

<p>I'm running Windows Server 2012, we only have 1 server and it's a DC. I'm trying to RD to the server from my Windows 7 laptop. It was working fine on Friday but when I came in on Monday I got message saying that 'The remote session was disconnnected
because there are no Remote Desktop License Servers available to provide a license'
So after a bit of digging I found out my 'grace period' had expired, so ordered a new license which I got today, installed this all ok but still i cannot connect via RD I get the same message....went into the RD License Diagnoser and it said the problem
was as follows
'The grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has expired, but the RD Session Host server has not been configured with any license servers. Connections to the RD Session Host server will be denied unless a license server is configured for
the RD Session Host server.'
Suggested Resolution as follows
Configure a license server for the Remote Desktop Session Host server. If you have an existing license server, specify that license server for the RD Session Host Server. Otherwise, install RD Licensing on a computer on your network and Configure RD Session
Host Server to use it.'
I cannot figure out how to do this as I cannot find the RD Session Host Server tool.
Can any of you lovely people help me please

Hello,
Best option would be to assign the license server by using AD GPO. Youl will need to configure the following:
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Licensing
and define the settings for:
Use the specified Remote Desktop License Server
Set the Remote Desktop Licensing mode
Then assign the policy tho your server.

Can't add own application to RemoteApps - "You must specify a file from the RD Session Host server SERVERNAME by using the UNC path....

Hi, there
I'm not really pro- at RDS in server 2012 (r1), but I have a problem and don't find anything suitable on internet:
I'm trying to publish one of my own, unlisted programs to rdweb, but it keeps saying "You must specify a file from the RD Session Host server SERVERNAME by using the UNC path...."
1) I provided the path in the unc name - when I click "Add.." then i browse the the .exe file via network share, not via local path. So that should be OK
2) Firewall is turned off and eventhough the exeptions are enabled, both of then, checked
What else should I do to make this work?

Okej, I found the sollution:
You have to specify the path like \\hostname\drive_letter$\path-to-the-program.
I was doing wrong because i wrote it like \\hostname\ShareName\path-to-the-program.
I was misleded because the wizard wants me to find the program by clicking, and not by entring the path manualy.

Help, how do i find out the host server for a website i have inherited

hi i inherited responcibilty for a website, simply because
there was noone else avalable. i have dreamweaver cs3, but only
about 2 weeks worth of knowledge and experience. I was given info
ie. ftp address and username etc, so have been able to download the
website to my home computer, and have been making updates, now
however i need to find out more about setting up a test server so i
can use dynamic pages, specifically for collecting form
information, collecting donations and selling art work. i will need
some information from the host server to start with, but am unsure
as how to identify and contact them, can anyone help me please. I
am sure it is rudimentary, but the information is essential.
also as a side note, could anyone tell me how to find out
where the websites domain name is regestered ( other than
contacting the original designer, as that seem quite impossible)
because i get the feeling that if all else fails i may be able to
move the website to another host ( not that i now how yet, or even
how to select or find a host) please let me know if any of my
assumptions are wrong.
Thanking you in advance

Hi,
To find out about the host, go to register.com and look up
the domain name.
When it gives you results, it'll say that the name is already
taken, but it
will let you do a 'whois' on it.
Those results can give you some info such as the server DNS.
That may let
you figure out the host.
Sometimes the technical contact in the whois, is the host as
well.

FTP no longer connects to hosting server after the latest update.

I was able to successfully connect to the web hosting server yesterday before the update. Today, after the update I can no longer connect to the hosting server via FTP. Any suggestions?

Email Send/Receive causes slow access to website host server. Any Suggestions?

Hello Community.
"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth."
I have a bit of a weird problem and though it sounds silly, I'm 99% certain of the cause. My business migrated our five different sites to a new web host (shared hosting) about 5 months ago. Since then we've been plagued by a localised speed issue with connecting to that host. The host is a reasonably good one, but for some reason when connecting on our local network ONLY we were having intermittent load problems; anywhere for instant load to 40-50 seconds. After much testing we have arrived at an improbable conclusion; That accessing webmail (e.g. clicking Send/Receive) on any Mac within our network causes a massive and immediate slow-down of website access and smtp connection to any of our five sites held on the shared hosting server.
Again, I know how strange that sounds, but we've essentially proved it based on ping tests and side by side comparisons of isolated computers. The ONLY computers that are affected are the Macs on the network and also mobile browsers on multiple platforms. Windows based PCs are not affected by the slow down.
Also, the problem seems to be access based. By that I mean, one a site is accessed it loads almost instantly, but it can take up to 40 seconds of white screen before the site is reached. Interestingly, during this time, the sites' ping speeds are perfectly normal UNTIL the moment when the page is finally accessed and it loads instantly. Once the load triggers the ping speeds increase dramatically to the point where they occasionally time out. Once the site is loaded the ping speeds return to normal (approx 22 ms).
... help!
Important: Things we've ruled out:
ISP is not a factor (used a 3G modem to rule this out)
Router is not a factor (see above)
Switch is not a factor (Tested different switch)
Individual terminals are not a factor (when removed from the network or isolated on the network the individual terminals perform perfectly. Furthermore when an external mac (iMac laptop) was introduced to the network it performed just as poorly)
Browser/Operating System/CMS platform not a factor (multiple CMSs have been tested, testing on multiple computers with different versions of OS have been tested, and all sites have different CMSs; Joomla, Concrete 5, Bespoke, and Wordpress of different versions)
Cpanel setup not a factor (Each site has its own Cpanel account, the are not set up as add-on domains. Furthermore, a similar slow down has been observed on other sites held on that server)
Mixed platform network not a factor (We removed non-mac based computers from the network and turned off wi-fi to isolate and found no change)
DNS does not appear to be a factor (We tested multiple DNS including Googles 8,8,8,8 / 8,8,4,4 and found no change)
Cabling does not appear to be a factor (though the cabling isn't perfect, it's at least Cat5/Cat6, plus it wouldn't affect only our sites)
Email Client does not appear to be a factor (accessing email via Outlook or Mail App causes the slowdown)
Important: Things that we suspect
Computer Year of Manufacture: (though all computers are affected, the problem is most severe on pre-2013 constructed models (regardless of OS)
POP3/SMTP request immediately triggers the slow down (observed visually as well as in ping tests. No mail needs to be sent/received during this process to trigger the slow down, simply the request causes the spike. We haven't yet been able to test IMAP)
The Networked Macs (not the individual macs): (the individual computers when isolated on the existing hardware perform fine. Only when they are networked does the slow down occur)
DNS (Even though we've found no link to DNS, if feeeeels like a DNS issue.)
CHANGE of host. (We changed hosts due to extremely poor service and tech support. The new guys are fantastic. Though I don't think it's the new host's fault, it's possible that the change of hosts has caused our network to search for our websites in the wrong place)
Apple Knows Best: Is there something that Macs do with Mail to update a routing table? Like, could a mail application trigger an update to a local routing table?
Has anybody heard of anything like this before? Or can anybody suggest any possible things to test or change? Even though email requests seem improbable, I can confirm that it has been proved visually and through tests. As you can probably tell, our testing has been extensive so if you notice anything in our test conclusions that I could add to please... I'm seriously open to suggestions now.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
-TheWebFella

Hi Linc
Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah I'd already tried that. It's been deactivated on most of our computers already. Plus like I said, it's different browsers on multiple macs and also some mobile browsers on both iPhone and Samsung on our wireless network. I can confirm that on mac the problem is consistent across Chrome, Firefox as well as Safari.
Thanks anyway! Any other takers?

Since upgrading to FF5, i get the following xml error on local development server (IIS 7 Windows 7): XML Parsing Error: no element found, Line Number 1, Column 1. The pages display fine when uploaded to hosting server. How do i resolve it

All aspx pages running locally via IIS or Visual studio inbuilt server can not be displayed in FF5. This problem has only occured since upgrading to FF5. The same sites/code worked fine with the previous version of FF.
When uploaded onto a hosting server the pages display fine. Pages all display ok on local IIS on IE, chrome, opera etc.
I do go through a proxy server, but so do the other browsers.
All this means i can't develop locally on FF. Help please!

Maybe your application doesn't support "Send NTLMv2 response only. Refuse LM & NTLM".

How to create restore point in windows server 2008 service pack1

hi i am bhaskar ... how to create restore point in windows server 2008 service pack1 and how to restore system from a restore point in windows server 2008 service pack1.. is this option available or not ? what is the difference between shadow copies and
restore point ? instead of restore point we have this shadow copies option in windows server 2008 ?Bhaskar

AFIK, Restore Points doesn’t exist in Windows 2008.
Volume Shadow Copy option can be used to achieve:
Creating consistent backups of open files and applications
Creating shadow copies for shared folders
Creating transportable shadow copies using a hardware provider — for backup, testing and data mining scenarios
Quickly recovering and restoring files and data
It is more like a file, data, application backup.

The applet starts and plays fine when previewing from within Dreamweaver. It's just when it is published o the web host server and tried to access from there in a browser that it will not start.
Is there a good way to debug the applet startup?
These files were provided to us from a vendor on a CD, which plays when inserted into the PC drive.
Thanks,
Mark

Are you sure you are uploading the pages to the correct location?
Could you post a screen capture of your expanded files window, showing the remote server and local file structures?
I'm guessing they're not identical and that you may be uploading to a redundant root folder.
