Data Protector 6.11 File Names Purge - Recovery.

Hi All;
On reviewing our Data Protector today I am finding a lot of session, restore, and media files missing.
I have found out that someone ran a cmd for DP:-
Omnidbutil -purge -filenames
Could this be a reason I am seeing missing information as above?
The data and catalogue protection is 2 weeks, I cannot see any trace of the sessions/backup files, I am looking for. ON attempting to restore from the target, the expected drives aren't even listed and 75% of the resultant backup media is listing with blue question mark in 'devices and media I.e not found.
Can anyone help/work with me on this please?
What affect does this have on the IDB/CDB/DCBF?
Thanks in advance for any assistance guys and gals.

The main reason for reformatting the cache, was the merger of the cache implementations in Java Web Start and Java Plug-in. There is now one cache, and one implementation of downloading and caching code for the two products.
The format and implementation is more similar to what was the previous plugin format, as that was faster and contained more features (cache size limit, ability to run w/o caching all together, and respecting more cache control and http header directives than the webstart implementation.)
The requirement for an undeterminable filename was from the security group. A bug in older versions of IE allowed you to execute a file on the local filesystem that you knew of. ( a jar file is a form of an executable. )
We feel that the cache is only that, a private cache for the java products.
By making this change we recognize that code such as this that assumes it knows the cache's format and contents can no longer work unmodified, and that this will prevent code from being developed that does this in the future.
There are several reasons why code has done this (including some in the JDIC project), but we think there are better mechanisms for achieving the objectives of such code, and are ready to help with what we understand may be a difficult transition for some.

Schedule a report with the system date imbeded in the file name

Hello,
Could anyone tell me how I can schedule a crystal report with the system date imbedded in the file name (FileNameYYYYMMDD) through BOE? When I scheduled the report through BOE, I gave a file name and selected Attach Date Time, but the file name is coming out slightly differently and with the time imbedded as well (FileNameYYYY-MM-DD-HH-MN I think). Is there a way to change the default system date time format in BOE so that the date stamp comes out the way we want it?
Thanks!

%SI_STARTTIME% will add the time the report ran too.
Adding onlt the date will necessarily have to be done via the appropriate SDK.

Data load from variable file names

I have multiple files that I want to load into a cube, each starting with the same 5 characters but ending differently. EG GM1010104 GM1010204 What's the best option for MAXL script to automate this data load ? Can you use a wildcard name in the script to pick up anything starting with GM101**** ?

No - you need to specify the file name as it appears properly (I've never tried it but I am pretty sure it wouldn't work). One solution to this problem though is to have a shell script (or DOS commands) auto-generate an ESSCMD/MaxL script based on the files that exist in a directory.Most scripting environments should allow you to loop through a list of files that match some pattern - you can then create a script with the results and execute it.Another option is to build a MaxL script that accepts a parameter (file name) and have a shell script call it as it loops through the file list.Hope that helps.Regards,Jade----------------------------------Jade ColeSenior BI ConsultantClarity [email protected]

How to export a report data with a custom file name?

Hello:
Env: OBIEE 11g Answers/Interactive Dashboards
I have a tabular report (built in Answers) and displayed in a Dashboard. I want to export the report data in csv format prefixed with the <OBIEE user login name>_<Name of the Report>_<current timestamp> on a certain folder.
Any ideas appreciated..
Thanks
Sankar Bala

This does not help solve my problem.
Tabular Report->Place it in a section in a dashboard->Report Links (Export Option turned on). When doing the export, I want to change the file name as the <Login Name>_<File Name>_<Time Stamp>.csv when doing the export into csv from the dashboard.

Need to add date/time stamp to file name without time change creating new files

We have setup our application to save data once a trigger event occurs. We also need the date/time stamp as part of the file name. We used Format Date/Time String and concatenated it into the file name. It all works good, but as the time changes (seconds, minutes, etc.) it causes the Write to File to create a new file with the new filename. Is there a way to create the file and save/latch/buffer the time in the file name so that it doesn't create a new file for every second?
I've attached a shot of the relevant part of our VI. It's all in a big while loop. The data save is in a case/switch so that when it is triggered it starts saving. (The for loop is to split the data up
into 4 different files). Like I said, it all works except new files are created every second as the time changes instead of just putting it all in one file with the initial time in the file name.

I need a loop in order to use a shift register. I cannot stop the outer while loop (because it would stop the hardware from collecting data), and I cannot add loops inside which bogs down the processor to where the app stops. I've attached a simpler version of my VI which illustrates the problem. While the button is pressed (the trigger) it should save the data (in this case just cycle numbers) into one file with the initial date/time. But, you can see that it creates 1 file/second. I tried using shift registers, but without adding extra loops I can't see how to do it. Thanks

Add date to new text file name and generic text in body

Okay, I hope this is the right forum. To help manage and keep track of incoming assets/files and I created an Automator workflow with the following: "Get Selected Finder Items → Get Folder Contents → New Text File (w/Show this action when the workflow runs so I can give a unique name).
This creates a text file with the folder contents listed in the body.
I would like to know if I can do two things:
1. Automatically add a date/time stamp to the Save as field so it will automatically have a unique file name?
2. I also want to add text before the listed contents within the text file. (e.g.: Let's say the folder contents are Volumes/Mac HD/Generic_movie.mov. I want the final text to read:
"The following file has been moved to the local volume at: Volumes/Mac HD/Generic_movie.mov"
Is there a way to accomplish either one or both of these with Automator or AppleScripts?
Thanks.

I would like to know if I can do two things...
This might address your first concern:
*1) Get Selected Finder Items*
*2) Get Folder Contents*
*3) New Text File* -- select a destination folder and check *Show Action When Run*
*4) Rename Finder Items:*
Choose *Add Date or Time* from the popup
Date/Time: select Created, Modified, or Current - Format: *Month Day Year*
Where: *After name* - Separator: *Forward Slash*
Separator: Space - check *Use Leading Zeros* (optional)
*5) Rename Finder Items:*
Choose *Add Text* from the popup
Add: *" at"* -- put a leading space before "at" (without the quotes), and select *after name*.
*6) Rename Finder Items:*
Choose *Add Date or Time*
Date/Time: Current - Format: *Hour Minute Second*
Where: *After name* - Separator: Dash
Separator: Space - check *Use Leading Zeros* (strongly recommended)
+--- End of Workflow ---+
Save the workflow as an application and use it as a droplet. Drop a desired folder onto the saved applet and enter a name when the dialog appears. The new text file, which will be found in the destination folder, should be appended with a date and time stamp, e.g., *"My Folder List 7/8/2010 at 23-54-09"*
Tested using Mac OS 10.4.11 and Automator v. 1.0.5
Good luck; hope this helps.

How to rename a flat file concatenating date and time the file name?

I created a package where I run a first interface that uses a flat file from a server and load into a table in Teradata.
After using the API OdiFtpPut, I used an FTP file and send to an outfit.
Since this procedure will operate daily, I need at the time of FTP, get the concatenation destination file name, date and time of execution.
What is the best practice for this?

Using OdiFtpPut in the field where it informs the destination file name, instead of putting just the file name (lpn_pln.csv), I put as follows:
- lp_pln_+<% = odiRef.getSysDate (ddMMyyyyhhmm ")%>+. csv
For code example, today would record the name lp_pln310120111412.csv

Creating a spool file with date/time appended to file name

In Oracle Sql*Plus, I want to spool out a file, with the date-time stamp as part of the file name. Any idea how to do this?
Here's what I have right now:
SQL>
set serveroutput on size 200000;
rem
rem $OFSA is a UNIX alias so sql plus is talking to UNIX
rem
spool $OFSA/logs/OFSAP/common_coa_id.log;
prompt 'Enter date in mmddyyyy format, without quotes';
exec upd_common_coa_id_driver ('&date_mmddyyyy');
spool off;
As an example, I'd like to have a file with this name: common_coa_id083002.log
Thanks.

In SQL*Plus this is what you can do to get the current date/time as part of the spool file:
============================================================================================
SQL> column tm new_value file_time noprint
SQL> select to_char(sysdate, 'YYYYMMDD') tm from dual ;
1 row selected.
SQL> prompt &file_time
20020816
SQL> spool C:\Temp\logfile_id&file_time..log
. /* put your code here */
. /* it will go to a file called C:\Temp\logfile_id20020816.log */
SQL> spool off
SQL>

PDF form with one submit button that prints form and sanves PDF with data with a unique file name

We have a long medical form that patients can fill out at kiosks as they wait to see a doctor. We want one button so that the patient can print out the form with one click (and finish filling it out by hand if it's not finished already) and the same button click will save the form with a unique file name (using last name, first name, date, and/or email address so that the identity of the person who filled out the form will be readily apparent to anyone who wants to grab the user's responses later). Is Acrobat capable of doing something like this? LiveCycle Designer maybe? And if we continue with the PDF form and add a submit button, is there a way to program the button click to print and to save?
Thank you in advance of any suggestions that might accomplish this task.

I am not sure about the print, but it can probably be done -- possibly with a bit of JavaScript. As to the saving of the form, that is not reasonable at a kiosk. You would want the data submitted to a server (particularly with patient data), no e-mail or accessible drive. You can collect the data and put it in a database or import it to the form for printing yourself.

Files arranged by date added, but changing file name changes date added

I've got my Downloads folder set to view (in the Finder) by "date added", a very useful feature. However, if I change a file name, the "date added" changes to that new time, and "date modified" stays the same as it was. This doesn't make sense to me... isn't date added just that, when it was added to the folder? Why would this happen? Any workarounds or suggestions?

You should use the 'File/Directory Info' functionality.
This will return the last modificatoin of the file.

How to Append Date to Export Dump file name

So when I try EXPSSU%date.DMP as the dump file name, I get error "dump file name "EXPSSU%d.DMP" contains an invalid substitution variable ."
what is the correct syntax? I dont care about the formatting of the date - whatever the default is will be OK.
Thanks, John
