Deleting all backed up archives using RMAN

Hi,
I used 'delete input' to delete all the archives backed up.
I am storing archives in dest1 and dest2...i.e, in two locatiions in production.
Although archive in dest1 is getting deleted I am unable to delete those in dest2.Please help to delete archives in dest2 too.

Ed,
Probably there is missing one "all" in your command :
C:\>rman target /

  • My iphone 5 is 32GB and I keep it backed up in icloud. A recent message suggested that I don't have enough icloud space so I have deleted all back up - it still says no icloud space - help!!! I am not a techy person and this is driving me mad!! :(

    Please can somebody help ....My iphone said not enough icloud space available, so I have delete all back ups and checked what apps are linked to my back up and it is only my photos. Since deleting all current back ups I have tried to back up  again and it still says not enough space when I have 5GB/ 5GB available.
    Can anybody help please? I'd be really greatful as this is driving me mad... why can't things just be simple x

    The problem could be that you don't have enough storage on the device itself, not on iCloud.  Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available on the device.  Farther down the list is the available storage on iCloud.
    Also check:
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud as well.  Tap Show All Apps to get the complete list of apps and MB used for backup storage.
    A device needs many MB of storage in order to perform a backup to iCloud.

  • Remove archives using RMAN

    Hello everyone,
    We've two situations (11GR2 (11202) RAC) ...
    - first, is even when using "backup as copy archivelog all not backed up 1 times" for backing up logs to normal FS from ASM I get below errors in log file:

    Is RMAN not supposed to backup only those archives which were not already backed up ?
    Or is it that copy is not counted as a backup ???
    - Second, when I remove the logs using "delete archivelog all completed before "trunc(sysdate)"" it removes the logs from ASM as well as the copy made using above command.
    can anybody help me with this.
    thanks

    From documentation:
    Note: You can only specify NOT BACKED UP integer TIMES when backing up archived redo log files into backup sets.
    RMAN does not throw an error, but it ignores the clause.

  • Can I delete ALL photo's not used in Albums?

    Hi,
    So, my iPhoto Library has become too big to manage. about 40 gigs. My albums are filled with my selected photos. Is there I way I can delete everything else, not used in an album? Do I have to click on the photo tab and delete manually?
    I hate to burn all the albums, delete everything, then re-import.
    Anyone use Media 100 Editing software? There is a great feature that allows you to remove all media not being used in a bin or project. I'm wondering if there is something similar in iPhoto.
    Any suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks
    Ethan-

    Try creating a smart album with the following criteria: *+Album is not any+*. Then apply a new keyword to those photos in the smart album.
    Next check your other albums to see if that keyword appears in any of them. If not then you can be assured that deleting the photos in the smart album will leave only those in the other album. Of course to be on the safe side backup you library before deleting the photos.
    Also don't delete more than about 100 photos at a time. iPhoto has a know disposition to choke when trying to delete large number of photos at one time.

  • Is there any way to delete all cookies except those used on the home page?

    Is there any setting in Firefox which would permit me the deletion of all cookies on exit EXCEPT those associated with with specific pages? For example, the iGoogle home page requires a cookie to be set which recognizes the session created in a prior access. If all cookies are deleted on closure of Firefox, the user is required to sign in to iGoogle every time to see their home page. Currently you can delete cookies on exit or accept cookies based on exception. I would like to delete all cookies except those from permitted sources. There is no setting for this that I can find.

    You can let all cookies expire if you close Firefox and set an allow exception for domains that you want to keep the cookies from. Don't use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear cookies as that will remove all cookies including ones with an exception, but just let the others expire.
    You can always remove cookies manually, e.g. via a click on the favicon and More Information and View Cookies.
    You can see all permissions of the current domain here: Tools > Page Info > Permissions

  • Problem backing up database using RMAN

    Hi All,
    I am new to RMAN. I am trying to test backup a db with RMAN. I successfully configured RMAN and registered a test db with it. Then I tried to take full backup of the db. The backup started as I saw the .dbf file of one of the tbs in the db at the destination. The problem is the backup process hanged up after that. I killed the unix session. Then opened one more session and tried copying a datafile. Same thing happened. I can see the full datafile copy at the destination location. Still the process hangs. I am confused. Can somebody help me understand whats going on. The follwing output will give you a big picture :
    RMAN> run{
    2> allocate channel c2 type disk;
    3> backup tablespace "DATA" format '/backup/TEST/%d_DATA_%u';
    4> release channel c2;
    5> }

    RMAN-08522: input datafile fno=00005 name=/oradata/TEST/DATA.dbf
    In the above example I am trying to backup the DATA tablespace. The process started as I saw the .dbf file under /backup/TEST. But still the process hangs.
    Thanks in advance.

    THis is 100% true.
    It is happening to me, my home and now my office. Every computer every tablet and my iPhone 4s.
    I have studied it thoroughly. Works something like this. They use a BT stack and telephony while they are roaming and they release an incredibly smart and incredibly small package.
    It is a variation of ransomeware. It starts by using bt exploits by chainfiring BT drivers and commands from the new dual and quad core android phones. The package that they install on your iPhone, iPad, all tablets as well as Pc and iOS computers starts by disassembling your applications, opening ports and installs VPN. Once they have the VPN it is all over.  All of this happens in seconds.
    It is scary stuff. Starteed with my iPhone then it uses your phone, tablet etc as a hub and spreads to your other devices. Once u get it it is impossible to get rid of.  You need to stop everything go to someone else's house or area on their device and change all your passwords and then start wiping everything 100% format and reinstall with no wireless within range.
    Sounds completely crazy but it almost shut my business down and you can call geek squad or any tech and they will think u are crazy. I am in Orange County Ca and I wonder if it is just local because you are the 1st person I have seen with the exact same problem. Once in my PC at my office it jumped to everyone through LAN or BT. I have copies of the original package that was installed with instructions on how to deploy it how to use it.
    Nobody will even take you serious when you explain it to them.
    Symptoms are your computer is running slow, finding new folders and locked out of your own folders or programs. You then think ok just a virus so you scan but nothing detects it because it encrypts everything it does. I have tried every single virus and malware scanner out there and uses simple scripts to do its job.  But as it grows it starts modifying your complete system.
    IT is very very dangerous because it is undetectable by any type of virus scanner and once you are VPN locked everything they do looks like it is coming from you. I can scan my LAN and there will be anywhere from 6-10 people using anyone of my devices. I have just given up trying to fight it. It is very personal here as well but cannot stop it. Everything has been wiped but it made a hidden drive/partition on my laptop that starts the process all over again.
    You won't get an ip just MAC addresses. It is definitely something new and a new type of bug that no one has seen before. One of the things it did was modify AVG to run endless loops far above what the CPU could handle on my wife's computer and we could not stop any of the processes or shut it down, had to physically take the battery out and unplug it because the laptop got soo hot it was literally burning up. It gets even stranger so I am not going to go on about it and loose all credibility.
    It is definitely something you do not want to get but there is some info on the FBI cyber attack website. I think the basic idea is to scramble all of the info and ransom the solution key back to you.

  • How to completely delete all backed-up time machine files but not other files in my external hard drive?

    I use a 500G WD as my external.. I have documents and movies there that i do not want to delete. Simply i just want to delete my time machine files completely and for my mac to not recognised it as a time machine HD.. TY guys  p.s. A video would be nice

    If you have the external HD setup as one partition, you cannot delete only the TM files as a unit.  You will have to use the brute force method of deleting directory by directory.
    If you have the drive partitioned into a TM backup partition and another partition for your other work, you can simply reformat the TM backup partition.
    So, the first question is, how is your drive setup, as one or as two partitions?

  • After crashing my desktop computer several times I discovered I need the latest CC app. SO I deleted all apps and now cannot download CC-I just get a blank screen.

    Please set me up with CC 2014!
    For some reason none of my apps would launch properly—or would launch but default into the "spinning rainbow of death" icon,
    effectively locking up my desktop (MacPro) and requiring restart.
    When I visited your troubleshooting website section, I was advised that I needed the most recent version of CC.
    I confess to overzealousness in that I deleted all CC apps and used the Cleaner app to remove all vestiges of CC.
    SO! How do I get my apps back? I can't even open the Adobe App Manager program I downloaded!
    HELP!!

    Hi there,
    You mentioned you used the Cleaner Tool to uninstall everything, but still have Adobe App Manager (AAM) installed? Please try running the Cleaner Tool again (Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6)
    Remove all CC files and be sure to uninstall AAM.
    Then download the CC Desktop App here: https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/creative-cloud
    After you launch the desktop app, use the Apps panel to install the programs you need.

  • Delete all instances of a button in a project - Captivate 4

    Hi there.
    It seems that with Captivate 2 (or maybe 3), you could copy a button and paste it on all the rest of the slides in your project.  Then if you had to modify that button, you could select it from the Library (memory's fuzzy here, that may not be accurate), then delete it, and it would delete the button from every slide.
    With Captivate 4, I don't see any buttons in the Library.  It also appears that if I paste a button onto all of my slides, each button is renamed and lives as a separate instance, and it's not just replicas of the original button.
    Is this the case? 
    Basically, I want to delete a button from my project that's been pasted on all of my slides.  Without deleting it slide by slide.  Can this be done in Captivate 4?
    I am aware of persistent buttons available via the Widgets functionality, but that wasn't appropriate for my project in this case.
    Thanks,
    Tichelle

    Here's a way to at least delete all Back buttons in a project at once:
    1.    Select Preferences from Edit menu.
    2.    In the Category pane on the left side of the Preferences window, select Quiz>Settings.
    3.    Under the Settings part of the window, uncheck the box next to “Allow backward movement.”
    4.    Click the OK button.
    NOTES:   • Depending on how many slides are in your project, it can take several seconds to complete the process. The Preferences window will disappear when it has completed removing all Back buttons.
                     • Also, if this doesn’t work for some reason (it didn’t remove the Back buttons from all my slides a couple of times), start by first selecting all slides (from Edit menu or Ctrl+A).

  • How do i delete all my contacts in facetime?

    hi i would like to know how do i delete all my contacts in facetime or contacts? do i have to do it 1 by 1 or there is a button to delete all contacts?

    Facetime uses the contacts in the from the Contacts app. Delete all your contacts there and they won't show up in Factime/Phone/Mail. If you want to delete Contacts en-masse, it's probably easier to revert to sync with an empty Contact list / AddressBook from your computer.

  • How do I delete all songs on an external drive?

    iTunes recently decided to scan my computer for addtional music and it found and added all the songs in a backup folder on an external drive. Now I have duplicates of over 2000 songs in my iTunes. I want to delete all the backups and use only the original songs on my hard drive in iTunes. Unfortunatly, I cannot tell them apart just by looking at them in the list view. To delete them manually, I have to "get info" for each song and check the "where" at the bottom to see which folder it is from. This is taking forever. Is there a way to delete an entire folder from iTunes, just like you can add a folder? Is there a way to display the folder address in the list view so I could sort by that and delete them all. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    cdharris wrote:
    Thanks, I tried that, but iTunes also added a lot of songs from my hard drive on that same date that I do not want to delete. So I cannot just delete every song added on that date.
    OK, here's what to do. Unplug the external drive. (Nothing will change immediately about your iTunes library.) Next, sync your iPod. iTunes will tell you which songs it could no longer find, and also it will note them with an exclamation point. Then you will know which library entries to delete.
