Delete MDM 2.0 archive files

Hi MDM gurus,
how is it possible to delete archived repositories.
We're using a Linux-Server. So do I have to delete archive files via command line ... or is it possible to delete archives via MDM Console?
Deleting archive files shouldn't make any problems, right?
Reason is that we need space on the harddisk.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Best regards,
Henning

Hello Henning,
I have to delete archive files via command line
Yes, you have to delete via command line.
Just follow the path as given below:
C:\Program Files\SAP MDM 5.5\Server\Archives
Under the Archives folder, you can delete the respective archive files (.a2a files).
Note: Installation directory may difer as per your MDM installation directory.
is it possible to delete archives via MDM Console?
No, it is note possible via MDM Console.
I hope this will clear your doubt.
TNR,
Saurabh...

Automatic deletion of old archive files and trace files

I've got a database that must run 24x7 without being monitored by a DBA.
Two questions:
1. Is it possible to get Oracle to automatically delete and uncatalog old archive files?
2. Is it possible to get Oracle to automatically delete old trace files located in udump and bdump?
Thanks in advance

1. When you say 'uncatalog old archives do you mean that your database is backed up using RMAN and a catalog? If this is the case then RMAN can delete the backed up archives for you. Just add 'delete input' to the end of the 'backup archive log...' line in your backup script.
2. Oracle can't delete the trace files. Best way is to write a script that delete all files older than X days and schedule it to run every night.

Archived files missed after deletion job

Now, we have get them restored from backup but i am not able to access the restored files from tcode SARA to store them in our storage server. It is still showing the files as failed in Store job archive file selection screen.
I need to store those files in our storage server but archive file is not accessible from file system.
Now, please let me know, what should i do in this case.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I do a little bit of Archiving using SARA, but not any expert
We had such situations when the file was deleted from OS level while Archiving run was in progress at SARA.
What we do in such situation is to disable the existing Run in "SARA" -> Put in Archiving Object name --> click Management, click on the failed Run and "Mark it for deletion".
Start a new run for the same Archiving object, Keep the variant same ( I mean keep the selection dates same as earlier run) and start all over again with Write, delete, store etc.
I dont know how much it helps
Might be different from the scenario you might have on hand.

Question related to deletion of archived files.

Hi everyone,
I have used the archiving object 'idoc' to archive data. However, this attempt to archive(write) failed twice and now i have two invalid sessions 632 and 633.
It has created archvied files worth 80 GB in my UNIX system, which are useless now. Is there some way by which i can clean up this data through SAP.
Please help.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Hi Vinod,
Since the archive file belongs to invalid session you can simply delete the archive files at the unix level.
Cheers,
Samanjay

Archivelog Mode Deleting archive files

Hey,
I have been reading about archivelog mode for a while and understand the concept and how it works. The one thing that is still alluding me is the removal/deleting of old archivelog files and how long I need to keep the files.
I hear people saying "backup your archive files", how long do I need to keep the backed up archive files?
What this sounds like to me is "you better keep every archive file ever created by your database in order to restore". This sounds silly to me but thats how I am interpreting this. Can someone please help me understand this a bit better?
Thank

Archive logs are normally backed up when a database backup is done. Some shops might backup archive logs more or less frequently. You need to keep the backuped archive logs for as long a necessary to meet the recovery policies set forth by the business.
For example, for some database that I manage the business decision is to retain backups for an entire year. Other database have a smaller time frame of 2 to 6 months and some are only a week. So you can see that I do not keep every archive log ever created, I just keep the ones necessary to fulfil the recovery policies set by the business.

AAUGHH!!! Accidentally deleted archive files on external hard drive!!

In trying to back up important archive files from one external hard drive to another, I accidentally deleted them!! Here's how it happened: A folder in XHD1 contained archive files from the past four years. I wanted to copy them to XHD2. But instead of dragging the Archive folder from XHD1 to XHD2, I accidentally dragged the Archive folder (which only contained 1 file) from XHD2 to XHD1. So, I now have two Archive folders on each XHD, both containing only 1 file instead of hundreds of important archive files. So far I've tried Time Machine (no luck, it's only set up for my computer), and I've tried "Undo Copy of Archive" under Edit in the Finder menu. Is there any other way to retrieve those files? I haven't emptied Trash, if that means anything. Please, HELP

situations like this are why you should back up all your data, not just the main drive. the only way you can maybe recover those files now is by using data recovery software like [Data rescue II|http://www.searchbling.net/?c=91&q=datarescueII] or [FileSalvage|http://www.searchbling.net/?c=91&q=filesalvage]. you should do it asap to maximize the chance of successful recovery.

Managing assets in Creative Cloud - deleting archived files

I have used up nearly all of my 20GB of Creative Cloud storage. However, when looking in Finder, I notice that I really only have about 6GB in the folder. Turns out, CC archives files, which is great in the event that I lose a file on a hard drive or a file get corrupted. I'd be able to restore from the archive. However, all those archive files take up a lot of space. I found out how to delete the archive files using the web based Manage Assets. However, it won't let me SHIFT select. I have to actually click each one, one at a time. I have over 3500 archive files. That will take me 20-30 minutes to do this.
Is there a better way to delete the archive files, other than DELETE ALL ARCHIVES?

How to delete Archived files from FTP

HI,
I am looking to delete Archived files from FTP Server, Can anybody have idea about this.
Thanks,
Ram

To be frank, deletion of archived files is really a manual activity and is never in reality done by an interface
so you have two options;
1. log into the archived folder and manually delete archived files
2. run a script in your file adapter - this way everytime the interface is triggered the files will be deleted - but then y do this.. instead just dont archive any files at all

Recovery of table with deleted archived file

Hi all,
long back I had created a table. Recently one user has dropped the table by mistake. When I am looking for the archived file, I saw that, I have only file no 5,6 and 7 but file no. 1 and 2 are missing. Because of that reason, I am unable to recover that table. If anyone knows any method by which I can recover the table then please let me know.
Thanks and Warm Regards,
Baishali

Hi,
What is the database version?
How did you know that the table is stored in files 1, 2 and 3? If you have no backup of those files and/or a recent database backup (assuming that the table is stored in those files), then it is not possible to recover the data.

Unable to get Field Names from Archived File

Hi All,
We have a ECC 6 Ehp4 system. When i retrieve Idocs archived using SARA, the data only contains application data. There is no field names available - eg: posting date, tax code etc. Please find below the background on this issue.
I configured archiving of process idocs (status 52,12,03) from EDIDC tables. I set up the settings for Archive Object IDOC and archived the data for 15 days.
Both archiving and deletion of data from the table was successful.
I tried reading the Idoc data from Archive File using the Information System option -> Info structure (available as default for Idoc).
But the data retrieved only shows the Application data for all the segments of the IDoc. The fields for the segments like Tax Code, Posting Date etc are not available in the data. Functional teams will not be able to make sense with just the application data.
Am I missing some setting? Is there any way to retrieve the related field values also ?
Please help.
Thanks and Regards,
Raghavan

Hi All,
There is tcode WE10. You could choose if the data source is archive and also the archive session. You will get the list of segments provided. click on the segment number and you will get the data.
Thanks and Regards,

Problem in Archiving File From FTP Server to XI File Server Using FCC

Hi,
The scenario is file to IDOc. XI has to read the input file from client FTP server and archive it to XI local file server. Archiving on XI server is working fine without FCC (for xml files). But with FCC, the sender FTP adapter is archiving empty files (0 kb files).
I've checked SXMB_MONI, even there I can see the file data and the IDoc is getting posted with proper data. But, the archived file is empty. Not sure about the problem.
Please suggest. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Joe.

Hi,
File adapter has the functionality which support the empty file handling.
Handling of Empty Files
Specify how empty files (length 0 bytes) are to be handled.
○ Do Not Create Message
No XI messages are created from empty files.
The files are processed according to the selected Processing Mode.
For example, if the processing mode is Delete, empty files are deleted in the source directory.
○ Process Empty Files
XI messages are created with an empty main payload.
The files are processed according to the selected Processing Mode.
○ Skip Empty Files
No XI messages are created from empty files.
Empty files are skipped and remain in the source directory.
