Directory Structure Errors

In TechTools ( came with Applecare ) i got a failed on Directory Structure, second time since owning my couple month old machine, first time apple recomended reloading.
i dont mishandle it, dont bump, dent, etc, the laptop.
but all of a sudden sometimes my USB keyboard/mouse wont register as being plugged in all the time / techtools HDD errors.
only recent think if done is instal Onyx to look over the logs, and little while after ( days ) the issues started hapening,, same with last time, but didnt think it was Onyx, now im starting to wonder, anybody else have any issues like this, and Would Onyx couse it ( doubt it, but since onyx goes deep into the system, no idea )

It is an interesting coincidence that I came across this thread today because I had the exact same issue myself last night.
I have plenty of space available on my HDD 73.1GB.
I downloaded the latest Onyx last night and when it starts it checks the disk. I got an error on the startup volume so I ran Tech Tools as well.
TechTools came up with that same failed Directory Structure error.
I next tried to reboot the comptuer holding down Apple/S and entering fsck -fy
That resulted in errors. Tried re-running it 3-4 tims to see if it would resolve anything but got the same error with every attempt.
I then booted from DiskWarrior and ran that. It seemed to correct a number of issues and now TechTools, Onyx, Disk Utility etc. find no problems. But it was kind of an odd occurance and interesting to find I was not alone in getting that last night.
The odd thing though is that I also checked my Mac Pro while I was wating on this one to finish and had directory errors on that one as well so had to run DiskWarrior on both.
I was kind of concerned about that to say the least.

Invalid Directory Structure Error

So I recently purchased a Panasonic AG-HMC40 and it's my first experience with a non tape camera. When I tried to get the footage onto my computer Final Cut wouldn't recognize it. It worked in iMovie but I would rather not lose quality by transferring it through that first. When I try to open the folder within the log and transfer screen I get an error message that says that it contains unsupported media or "Invalid Directory Structure." I'm on FCP 6.0.5.

I quite believe it.
Can you exactly describe what you're doing and how FCE behaves?
Do you see a preview of the clips after connecting the camera?
Try to import using iMovie, when this works, it should in FCE somehow, too.
I googled a bit around and found someone having the same problem (but unfortunately in german language).
He has formatted the SD card using the camera, then it worked. But the clips beeing on the SD card before are still lost. But if you backup before, you can convert the .mts files into .mov and then import it into FCE.
Some other possible source of errors:
- is the HF 100 power cable connected for transfer? (it has to be)
- did you see the "mode selection" screen when connecting to your Mac?
- if yes, did you select the "PC mode" there?
- does the USB port you are using work with other devices?
- can you try using an SD Card reader instead of the camera?
- do you see the camera device icon after connecting to your mac?
- can you try it on another Mac if it works? (if not, it may be a manufacturing issue)
At moment no more ideas...

Import statement and directory structure

First of all, sorry for such a long post, I believe part of it is because I am unsure of the concept of importing in Java. Secondly, Thanks to anyone who can ultimately enlighten me to the concept of import. I did ask this question before in the "erorr and error handling" forum, and the people who have helped me there did a great job. But, I believe I require a little more clarification and thus have decided to post here.
Anyhow, my question..
Could someone explain to me the concept of the import statement, or direct me to a webpage with sort of explanation for newbies? For some reason, I am having a hard time grasping the concept.
As I understand it, the import statement in Java, is very similar to the namespace keyword in C. That is to say, import doesn't actually "import" any source code, the way that the #include statement does in C.
So I suppose what my question is, say I have a java class file like below:
//filename: sentence.java
//located: c:\school\csc365
package csc365;
class sentence
//some variables here..
//some constructor here..
//some methods here..
And some sample program like the one below which implements the above..
//filename: test.java
//located: c:\school\csc365
import csc365.*;
import java.io.*;
class test.java
//creates some sentence object
//uses the object's methods
//some other things.
As I understand it, the test.java file should not compile because the csc365 package is not in the correct directory. (assuming of course, the classpath is like c:\school\csc365;c:\school )
But, ... where then should the sentence.java be located? In a subdirectory of c:\school called csc365 (i.e c:\school\csc365\) ?
And thus that would mean the test.java file could be located anywhere on the hard drive?
I suppose, I just need a little clarification on the correlation between a package's "name" (i.e package csc365; ) and its corresponding directory's name, and also how the javac compiler searches the classpath for java classes.
..So, theoretically if I were to set the classpath to look in every conceivable directory(provided the directory names were all unique) of the harddrive, then I could compile a test.java anywhere?
As a note: I have been able to get the test.java file to compile, by leaving out the import statement in the test.java file, and also leaving out the package statement for the sentence class, but I assume this is because the files are defaulted to the same package?

Hi Mary,
No, import isn't analogous to C++ namespace - Java package is closer to the namespace mark.
import is just a convenience for the programmer. You can go your whole Java career without ever writing an import statement if you wish. All that means is that you'll have to type out the fully-resolved class name every time you want to use a class that's in a package other than java.lang. Example:
// NOTE: No import statements
public class Family
   // NOTE: fully-resolved class names
   private java.util.List children = new java.util.ArrayList();
}If you use the import statement, you can save yourself from typing:
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class Family
   // NOTE: fully-resolved class names
   private List children = new ArrayList();
}import isn't the same as class loader. It does not bring in any source code at all.
import comes into play when you're compiling or running your code. Java will check to make sure that any "shorthand" class names you give it live in one of the packages you've imported. If it can't find a matching fully-resolved class name, it'll give you a message like "Symbol not found" or something like that.
I arrange Java source in a directory structure that matches the package structure in the .class files.
If I've got a Java source file like this:
package foo.bar;
public class Baz
   public static void main(String [] args)
        Baz baz = new Baz();
        System.out.println(baz);
   public String toString()
       return "I am a Baz";
}I'll store it in a directory structure like this:
root
+---classes
+---src
      +---foo
           +---bar
                +---Baz.javaWhen I compile, I go to root and compile by typing this:
javac -d classes foo/bar/*.javaI can run the code from root by typing:
java -classpath classes foo.bar.BazI hope this wasn't patronizing or beneath you. I don't mean to be insulting. - MOD

Creating a Standby Database with the Same Directory Structure

Hello gurus,
I am self-learning the feature Oracle Data Guard, so I am testing it on Oracle 10g R2.
At Oracle documentation there is a section F.4.: Creating a Standby Database with the Same Directory Structure*, that explains how to create a standby database with RMAN but there is something that I don´t understand:
In the standby server, I created a database with the SID equal to production database* with the objetive to have the same directory structure, but when I try to startup nomount the standby database with pfile appear this expected error:
ORA-16187: LOG_ARCHIVE_CONFIG contains duplicate, conflicting or invalid attributes
So my question is: Is possible have the Same Directory Structure on both: Production and StandBy server?
Thanks in advanced.

Uwe and mseberg: thanks for your quick answers
I have a doubt: How can you have the same directory structure if you have differents SIDs?, for example if you follow the OFA suggestions you would must have:
On Production server: */u01/app/oracle/oradata/PRIMARY/system.dbf*
On StandBy server: */u01/app/oracle/oradata/STANDBY/system.dbf*
Or you created the directory structure manually on StandBy server? For example replacing the string STANDBY* to PRIMARY* before create the database using dbca.
Do you understand my doubt? Excuse me for my english.
Thanks.

Directory Structure ?s for an Exploded Web Application

We have an application that consists only of JSPs and Servlets, no
EJBs. I am researching whether or not it's worthwhile to start using
EJBs. We're also migrating from Weblogic 5 to 6.1. I've managed to
migrate our application fine and have it up and running on WLS 6.1.
I'm confused about the exploded directory structure, the
application.xml file, where to put the EJBs and whether or not I have
to jar them. Here's our current directory structure:
DefaultWebApp/               JSPs here
DefaultWebApp/WEB-INF          web.xml and weblogic.xml here
DefaultWebApp/WEB-INF/classes     Servlets and other classes here
DefaultWebApp/WEB-INF/lib     do my un-jar-ed EJBs go here?
I've been reading a lot of BEA's documentation, particularly
‘Deploying an Exploded J2EE Application' and a ‘Web Application PDF',
and looking for relevant threads on the weblogic.developer.interest
groups. It looks like the application.xml should go in a new
DefaultWebApp/META-INF directory. But where do the EJBs go?
I also see some directory structures with another /web directory
that's confusing me.
Oh, I've also managed to compile and jar up a trial Stateless Session
EJB. Then I think I ‘auto-deployed' it into the /applications
directory, and Weblogic seems to recognize it. But when I tried to
reference it in a JSP, I got an error message ‘class x is public,
should be declared in a file named x.java'. I'm assuming this is
related to the application.xml, where I need to define the ejb
directory.
Thanks.

To deploy your web app together with your EJBs, you need to create
an "EAR" structure. Both your webapp and your EJB jars will be within
this new structure, at the same level. You may jar up your EJBs, or you
may explode their structure, it's up to you.
The resulting structure should look something like below:
EnterpriseApp/ <-- new top level
EnterpriseApp/META-INF/
EnterpriseApp/META-INF/application.xml
EnterpriseApp/lib/ <-- shared libraries (if any)
EnterpriseApp/EJB/ <-- ejbs go here
EnterpriseApp/EJB/META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
EnterpriseApp/EJB/META-INF/weblogic-ejb-jar.xml
EnterpriseApp/EJB/com/your/ejb/classes/here
EnterpriseApp/WebApp/ <-- move your current app here
EnterpriseApp/WebApp/index.jsp <-- JSPs goes here
EnterpriseApp/WebApp/other.jsp
EnterpriseApp/WebApp/WEB-INF/web.xml
EnterpriseApp/WebApp/WEB-INF/weblogic.xml
EnterpriseApp/WebApp/WEB-INF/lib <-- ui libraries go here
EnterpriseApp/WebApp/WEB-INF/classes <-- servlets go here
The above structure is identical to the structure to an EAR file, only "exploded"
as actual files and directories instead of being "jarred" into a single EAR file.
Your application.xml in this case would specify something like:
<application>
<display-name>EnterpriseApp</display-name>
<description>My Enterprise Application</display-name>
<module>
<ejb>EJB</ejb>
</module>
<module>
<web>
<web-uri>WebApp</web-uri>
<context-root>/yourAppRoot</context-root>
</web>
</module>
</application>
And in config.xml you would have an entry similar to:
<Application Deployed="true" Name="EnterpriseApp"
Path=".\config\mydomain\applications\EnterpriseApp">
<WebAppComponent Name="ui" Targets="myserver" URI="WebApp"/>
<EJBComponent Name="ejb" Targets="myserver" URI="EJB"/>
</Application>

Problem with package and directory structure

Please... I need help with a directory/package structure that I don't understand
why it is not working...
I want to create a custom login SWF which several other SWF movies will use in case they need some kind of login logic (in this case it is a login logic... but the problem doesn't have anything to do with that logic...)
I have created a FLA movie (LOGIN.FLA) and two helper classes (MAINLOGIN.AS and MAINLOGINEVENT.AS)... they are all under the same directory, for example:
c:\
     abc\
          def\
               ghi\
                    login
In LOGIN.FLA, I have included the source path, c:\abc (for example).
MAINLOGIN.AS and MAINLOGINEVENT.AS, have both a package like:
     package def.ghi.login
MainLogin class uses MainLoginEvent (it dispatches events of that type)... but I don't have to import anything as all 3files are in the same directory...
LOGIN.FLA has its class defined as def.ghi.login.MainLogin
And that's all... now comes the problem:
1. If I leave everything as described and try to publis LOGIN.FLA, it throws error 5001 ("The name of the package def.ghi.login.MainLoginEvent doesn't reflect....) for class MainLoginEvent... don't understand why... it is placed exactly as MainLogin and has the same package definition!
2. I have tried several other options, but when I get the SWF to get published, then, the problem comes when trying to use this SWF from another movie:
The way to publish LOGIN.FLA with no errors is: MAINLOGIN.AS and MAINLOGINEVENT.AS with empty package definition ("package" alone...) and LOGIN.FLA with class MainLogin (not def.ghi.login.MainLogin)... LOGIN.FLA doesn't have to include source path to c;\abc in this case. This way, I can publish LOGIN and get LOGIN.SWF.
The problem now is how to use this information from another Movieclip... I want to be able to use and receive events of type MainLoginEvent but can't (it gives error 5001 again, on MainLoginEvent, saying that the name of the package '' doesnt' reflect....)... If I include the path to c:\abc\def\ghi\login on the FLA, then it gives errors in MainLogin when trying to use a class of its library...
Basically, the problem here is that, the movie which wants to use the LOGIN.SWF, is in c:\abc\def, and it is including the source path c:\abc, so if I import def.ghi.login.*
it is when it throws error 5001 (I understand why, but I dont know how to fix it...), but if I dont import def.ghi.login.* then I can't use MainLogin nor MainLoginEvent...
What is the good way of doing this kind of structure... mainly it is creating a SWF, which can be used from other SWF's and which can dispatch events, which the container SWF will capture...
If anyone can please give me a hint... THANK YOU!

Hi kglad , I don't understand the first point... "don't use absolute paths"... I'm not using them (or I don't understand what you mean).
For the second one... the structure is like:
c:\
     abc\
          def\
               LOGINCONTAINER.FLA
               ghi\
                    login\
                         LOGIN.FLA
                         MAINLOGIN.AS
                         MAINLOGINEVENT.AS
In LOGIN.FLA, I include the source path c:\abc, so MAINLOGIN.AS and MAINLOGINEVENT.AS have a package of "def.ghi.login", and the class for LOGIN.FLA is "def.ghi.login.MainLogin"... when trying to publish LOGIN.FLA, Flash throws error 5001 for MAINLOGINEVENT...¿?
What I want to get is a SWF (LOGIN.SWF), which can be loaded from any other SWF (in this example, LOGINCONTAINER.SWF). LOGINCONTAINER.FLA, has a class path "c:\abc" (the same as the other LOGIN.FLA, because of the directory structure), and it has to be able to receive events of type MAINLOGINEVENT... that is why it has to do an import of "import def.ghi.login.*" (for example)
Any idea of why it is not working (or how to organize it correctly)?
Thank you

Import already existing directory structure into DFS namespace?

Hi all,
I'm planning to migrate three file servers to a single DFS namespace and after reading the official docs and numerous blog posts I'm still unsure about the right way to do it.
The "main" server already has a share with a complex directory structure, called \\server1\team, and that share shall become the root of the new DFS namespace, lets call it \\domain.local\team.
Part of that already existing directory structure is this folder: \\server1\team\admin\communication\archive. The folder "archive" contains thousands of files in numerous folders and shall become a dfs link to another share \\server2\archive. But
before I can create the folder "archive" as a dfs link I have to create the folder "admin" in the dfs hierarchy of course, then below that the folder "communication"
Question: When I try to create a folder "admin" in the dfs namespace, I get the error message "the folder cannot be created in the namespace. The file exists."
Ok, the folder "admin" indeed exists, but how can I "import" this branch of the existing directory hierarchy into the dfs namespace?
Do I have to rename the existing folder "admin" to e.g. "admin2", then create the dfs folder "admin" and move the complete directory structure below "admin2" to "admin"? Or can I simply make the existing folder
"admin" a dfs folder?
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Christoph

Mandy, thanks for your feedback!
I have to describe my problem more precisely: creating the root of the new DFS namespace is *not* the problem. This worked for me exactly as you expained it. The problem appears when I try to create a folder below that root in the DFS namespace. If that
folder already exists in the share you cannot choose how to handle security settings but you get an error message, and that's it.
This may be helpfull to explain what I want to achieve:
Old structure:
\\server1\team - folder admin - subfolder "archive" - lots of subfolders and files
Now I want to move all files and folders from "archive" to \\server2\archive and link this share into the new DFS namespace, so that our users don't notice any change when they access that archive folder.
new structure:
1. Create DFS namespace root: \\domain.local\team -> \\server1\team   (works!)
            |
2. Create folder admin (problem!)
            |
3. Create subfolder "archive" -> \\server2\archive (not possible becaues "admin" couldn't be created)
I could perhaps create a DFS namespace with the root \\server1\team\admin\archive and link that to \\server2\archive, but I would like to avoid creating a new namespace for each share which from \\server2 which I mount into some subfolder of \\server1\team...
Thanks for reading.
Regards
Christoph

Directory structure on Win/MSS

Hello,
It is a conceptual doubt, not an error.
We have several Dialog instances (on separate boxes) for our Production system running R/3 4.7 on Win server 2003 + MS SQL 8.00.2040
I noticed that directory structure of Dialog hosts don't have SYS directory under D:\usr\sap\<SID>.
Hence the profile directory \usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\profile is only present in Central instance host. It doesn't seem to be mounted on any Dialog instance host.
Q: How does any Dialog instance, in this case, reads the Start & Instance profiles during startup?

Hi Sekhar,
What you say is correct.
My question is specific to Windows OS, where I am not able to see (on DI's) any sapmnt or any mapping to the global share.
There must definitely be some mapping but somehow its not visible.
E.g.
In a DI host running on UNIX you can view directory structure like below, which clearly shows SYS dir
[user@host ~]$ cd /usr/sap/PD1/
[user@host PD1]$ ll
total 28
drwxr-xr-x 8 pd1adm sapsys 4096 Oct 13 08:29 D03
drwx------ 2 root root 16384 Oct 8 16:30 lost+found
drwxrwx--- 4 pd1adm sapsys 4096 Nov 3 04:33 out
drwxr-xr-x 5 pd1adm sapsys 4096 Oct 13 08:26 SYS
But windows doesn't show the SYS dir. by default. Why?
By which method/route is sapmnt being accessed in Windows environment?

Exception handling in File adapter when directory structure is incorrect

hi,
How can exception handling part be done in File adapter in cases where directory structure is incorrect, or directory
we are referring to is not present.
thanks
Yatan

If you are polling then there will be error message in log files.But i dont think we can do exception handling in such cases.

Web Application directory structure

Please can someone help me with directing me to any online guide as to how webapp could be created and web.xml configuration in Sun Application server 8.
I do not understand the directory structure of sun, unlike Tomcat the webapps contains all the virtual context part with a default ROOT direct set in the server.xml as the default docbase.
Now, where is the default ROOT in Sun server? Where can I put my index file. When I create a web context, where will I put it? Does J2EE has similar WEB-INF structure in Tomcat? Does it have web.xml to configure the webapp
Finally, I have written a simple EJB called Hello World using stateless protocol. I have my Hello.class, HelloHome.class and HelloBean.class. I also have ejb-jar.xml for container configuration. I have jar then up to hello.jar and have deployed them. Now I want to access the beans, Home bean to be precises. I have written a hello.jsp and I put it in the orignal directory where the main index.html file is in Sun server which is /user/Sun/AppServer/domains/domain1/docroot, I got errors.
Could someone shade a light on this please.
Thanks Guys.
NB
Do not point me to online reference
I have awared max point for this question

The developer's guide discusses in pretty clear terms how to deploy a J2EE app from a directory structure.
The tomcat directory structure is really the same as a packaged war which once you read the documentation you will see is basically no different with SJSAS.
You need to deploy an application. See previous posts on how to have docroot be the top level (search for posts by janluehe)

Invalid directory structure in Log and Transfer w/ AVCHD & stills

Using FCE 4.01 I have been happily using Log & Transfer for material from Panasonic AG-HMC70P AVCHD Camera. Last night I shot some material using an SD card that had some still photo files on it from a Nikon Coolpix. Now FCE won't read the SD card for L&T. Gives me the invalid drectory structure error message. I tried deleting the Nikon related files in Finder, but it still won't work. Any hope for getting these files into FCE somehow?

First, I would lock the SD card so it can't be erased or written to. I would also copy the entire SD card to a folder on a hard drive for backup purposes.
If the camera can play back the video clips, then you could try using one of these utilities to salvage your clips. You may have to try them to find out which one will work in your situation, as the directory has been corrupted in some way by using the SD card in two different cameras.
Voltaic
VLC Media Player
Panasonic AVCHD transcoder (unfortunately this is Windows only)
Mac Video Converter
There are other conversion utilities if none of these work for you.
Unfortunately you have found out the hard way that you should never use an SD card in more than one, single camera/camcorder. But don't lose hope, one of these utilities should do the trick. As long as the camera can play back the video clips, there is a way to get them, even if you have to play back via the analog output and convert the analog out to digital.

Data guard directory structure query

my OS IS WINDOWS2003
ORACLE VERSION 10GR1
i have a query regarding directory structure.What i did is i kept exactly the same directory structure on both primary and standby..please clear me on that
Its what i did
Primary SID- PROD
Directory--- D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\PROD\abc.dbf(all datafiles,redo,control are in this directory)
Archive location on Primary D:\PROD\ARCHIVE\.arc(all archives)
Now what i did on standby.i created different sid--PROD2
But i have kept exactly the same directory structure on standby too as
datafiles in D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\PROD\abc.dbf(all datafiles)
Archive location on standby D:\PROD\ARCHIVE\.arc(all archives).
As i kept the same directory structure so i didnot set parameters db_file_name_convert and log_file _name_convert
Please clear me on this before i move forward to check for archive shipping because i get confused that may be i followed wrong and i should have kept as
Standby datafiles = d:\oracle\product\10.2.0\prod2\.dbf
standby archives = d:\prod2\archive
please tell.i really need your reply urgently
can this approach of same directory structure affect the primary in bad way or is that fine

please clear me on my above note
i have taken the same directory structure as it was on primary even the sid name in directory is same.
PRIMARY SID= PROD
STANDBY SID =PROD2
but datafiles,redo,control and archive location i have kept the same sid as of primary.
D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\PROD\.dbf
D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\PROD\.ctl
D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\PROD\.redo
i just changed control file with standby and also i did not created standby redo's as i read in document its needed for switchover.so i thought i 'll create later on.
i am getting error in trace file of standby
0ra-19527 physical standby redo log must be renamed
ora-00312 online log 1 thread 1: D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\oradata\prod\reo01.log

Volume structure error -694???

Ran tech tool cd and it could not fix volume structure error and showed error -694. Does anyone know what this means?
Just archived and reinstalled OSX yesterday to fix a boot up problem, which it did. But now after doing the needed updates - whenever I try to type something in firefox a gray screen with the power button logo pops up and says I have to restart - and when I try to open multiple documents into photoshop it won't open them - only individually.
So I figured something must be wrong - and ran the apple hardware test, disk utility and then the tech tool deluxe. Then I got the volume structure error which tech tool could not fix. Could it have something to do with permissions errors? I was trying to fix permissions and everytime I do, I get the same corrections which seems weird. Anyone got any suggestions?
I have an imac G5 with OSX version 10.3.9. 1.8 Ghz with 768MB Memory.

Any help would be great. I can still use my computer - but I want to get this fixed before bigger things happen...

The error -694 message means that one part of your hard disk is listed as being part of two or more files; using the Disk Utility's Repair Disk option may identify these files.
The output of the Repair Permissions command indicates that you're using a version of iTunes which the mechanism can't properly handle, and the others are status messages. You shouldn't be concerned about any of those messages.

Directory Structure for Discoverer

Hi,
I have couple of queries...
1. What is the directory structure for discoverer on Unix in Application Server?
2. Is there any extention for the woekbook saved in the database like .dis?
I am working on discoverer 10g with Oracle Apps.
Thanks...

1. On a Solaris machine where I have Discoverer 10g (9.0.4.3) installed the directory structure for the Oracle home looks like this:
$ cd h9043
$ pwd
$ /home2/h9043
$ ls
Apache install.platform opmn srvm

How duplicate ora11 on windows to another host with different directory structure

Hi,
I need help.
I want to duplicate db (11.2) running on windows from server A to Server B
Directory structures on server A and Server B are different;
my steps
on server A
1.backup database plus archivelog delete input;
2.insert into table t values(1);
3.commit;
4.backup archive log all;
On Server B
5.copy backup and archive logs from server A to server B (c:\backup\temp)
6.create folders C:\oracle\oradata\bamboo
7.oradim –new –sid bamboo -- (verified service is running)
8. created pfile.ora with param (db_name=bamboo)
9.SET oracle_SID=bamboo
10.sqlplus /as sysdba
11.startup nomount pfile='(c:\backup\temp\pfile.ora'
12.C:\oracle\product\11.2.0\db_1\database>rman auxiliary /
result
..connected to auxiliary database: SBDBT02W (DBID=186082786, not open) --could it be the fact that I tried to execute code bellow?
My understanding at this point I should be connected to 'bamboo' -- my new database, what steps did I miss?
I expect
..connected to auxiliary database: bamboo ( not mounted)
bellow is code that I was going to run on Server B
RUN
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 1 TO 'C:\oracle\oradata\bamboo\SYSTEM01.DBF';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 2 TO 'C:\oracle\oradata\bamboo\SYSAUX01.DBF';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 3 TO 'C:\oracle\oradata\bamboo\UNDOTBS01.DBF';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 4 TO 'C:\oracle\oradata\bamboo\USERS01.DBF';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 5 TO 'C:\oracle\oradata\bamboo\EXAMPLE01.DBF';
DUPLICATE DATABASE TO bamboo
UNTIL TIME "TO_DATE('11/24/2013 13:18:02', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')"
BACKUP LOCATION 'C:\backup\temp'
NOFILENAMECHECK;
when I executed it on Server B ,I got following error
Starting Duplicate Db at 25-NOV-13
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of Duplicate Db command at 11/25/2013 11:27:36
RMAN-05500: the auxiliary database must be not mounted when issuing a DUPLICATE
command
I looking for steps by step instruction for duplicating db to another windows host with different directory structure.
Thank you
Alex
