Exadata upgrade with Exadata Storage Expansion

Hi everybody,
I was reading about upgrade exadata, but i can't find any information about upgrade exadata with Exadata Storgae Expansión. In this case, does Exadata Storage Expansion require some upgrade? or only Exadata software is upgraded?
any information will be apreciated.
regards.

Yuu are trying to club two things 1) Upgrade and 2) adding more space (i.e. adding a new cell) to the exadata.
For upgrade, you can refer "Information Center: Upgrading Oracle Exadata Database Machine" (Doc ID 1364356.2)
You can only add a certain numbers of storage cells to the existing machine. For more information on available storage and more you can add refer following notes:

Exadata - Storage Cells

We had two flash disks go offline on a storage server!
We restarted the storage cell on Friday. The physical disks never came back online. They are still showing as syncing or offline. ASM has dropped the disks.
2 Of the DB's are not even coming up. Please advise.

You may want to apply the fix mentioned in 1351559.1 until your Exadata storage server software is upgrade from 11.2.2.2.0 to 11.2.2.3.5. It will avoid the problem of two of flash cards on the same PCIe riser (ie. either 1 and 4 or 2 and 5) going offline at the same time on cell nodes.

Vishal GuptaVishal,
I took the contents of the note to mean that we still need the fix, even with 11.2.2.3.5. From the note:
>
Apply this solution to systems running Exadata Storage Server software 11.2.2.3.5 and earlier.
Systems patched to 11.2.2.3.5 that incorporated the 12832832_12886507_12413272.tbz workaround specified in Note 1334254.1 already have this in place. To verify, run the "service fixpciidt_12886507 status" command as described below.
This solution will be incorporated into the next Exadata Storage Server software release.

How can I upgrade my iCloud account's storage but pay for the upgrade with another Apple ID?

I want to upgrade my iCloud account so that I can back-up my iPhone, however I would like to pay for the upgrade using a different Apple ID than the Apple ID associated with my iCloud account. I can not figure out how to do this, when I hit buy after selecting my desired plan it wants be the buy the upgrade with the Apple ID my iCloud account uses. Please help!

I don't think that's possible. (If you're trying to get it on another credit card, one option would be to purchase an iTunes gift card with it and redeem it to create an iTunes store credit. Storage upgrades will first charge your iTunes store credit before charging your card.)

From what i understand, you want to buy more storage on iCloud using an iTunes card right?

Other DB hardware + Exadata Storage?

Lets say I have a number of database machines on say, Dell hardware using an EMC SAN. Can I:
1) Swap out the EMC SAN for an Exadata Storage Server?
2) Run non-11gR2 (10.2, 11.1) databases against an Exadata Storage Server, knowing that things like Smart Cache simply won't work?
3) Store data from non-Oracle applications on an Exadata Storage Server? Lets say I have a bunch of MySQL databases on other servers, can I point them at Exadata for storage?
Thanks,

Infiniband infrastructure is required and in custom deployments (non-DB Machine), would have to be provided by the customer.
2) Exadata V2 requires DB 11gR2.
3) No. Exadata storage is available to databases via ASM diskgroups.

ITunes movies with no storage left on Macbook air

Where can I put my Itunes movies if i have no storage on my mac?
Itunes movies are taking up to much space, so can I move them somewhere? Or if i delete them, and get a Mac Desktop, will they be able to be redownloaded?
I need the space for other things,but do NOT want to have to repay for the movies I have bought.

clear cut case
You need to change the premise of your SSD use.
see here:
Your Solid State Drive and having enough space inside your Macbook Air & Pro
Solid State Drive usage premise, or the “more space / upgrade SSD” question
There have been questions posed and positions taken by many people who are trying to use their Macbook Air or Pro’s solid state drive (SSD) as a mass media storage device, for either pictures, videos, massive music collections or all three combined; but this should not be the working premise of a ‘limited’ SSD and its use.
In which, it’s the case of those users with either 128GB, 256GB, or even 512GB of internal SSD space, that have or are running “out of space”, that questions are raised. The immediate premise of some users can sometimes be “(how to / if) upgrading my SSD” when in fact in nearly all instances another approach is the logical and sensible one that needs to be looked into and exercised.
Any Macbook containing a SSD should be idealized as a ‘working platform’ notebook containing all your applications, documents, and weekly or bi-weekly necessary files. All collections of media files such as pictures, music, and videos, unless directly needed should be kept off the notebook and on an external hard drive or likewise. While the ‘working platform’ premise is also the case with larger internal conventional hard drives of 1TB+, its implementation isn't as critical except in terms of data protection.
Realistically, you should at most coordinate roughly 20 to 25% of your total SSD space to all audio-video personal use media (picture / music / video collections), leaving the remaining amount on an external HD.
Nobody should consider any notebook a data storage device at any time under any circumstance, rather a data creation, sending, and manipulation device; and in the case of a SSD, this is more important for purposes of having sufficient working space on the SSD and reducing SSD ‘bloat’ in which cases someone is wrongly attempting to use the SSD space as a large media storage nexus.
The rare exception to the collective usage and premise of SSD use in which a much larger SSD is truly needed are for those in video and photography professions that require both the extremely fast speeds of the SSD and the onboard storage for large and or many video and photography files. However this also falls under the premise of a ‘working platform’ for such peoples rather than the intent of many who are using the SSD as passive and static data storage for media files very infrequently needed or accessed.
All on-notebook data collections should be logically approached as to necessity, and evaluated as to whether it is active or passive data that likely doesn’t need to be on the notebook, allocations of space-percentages to as-needed work and use, apportioning space for your entertainment media, and questioning whether it should it be on the notebook for more than short-term consumption.
Considerations should be made in the mind of any user in differentiating the necessary system data (System hub) comprising the Mac OSX, applications, necessary documents that both must and should be on your internal SSD, and that of the users personal data (Data hub) comprising created files, pictures, music, videos, PDF files, data created or being created and otherwise, that likely unless being used soon or often should be parked on an external hard drive for consumption, or temporarily loading onto the internal SSD.
You both can and should purchase whichever SSD size you need or see fit, but even in the case of the largest of SSD, unless use-considerations are made, and SSD spaces are allocated as should be the case indicated above, one can easily and immediately run into this quandary of “needing more internal SSD space”, in which instance a different approach in usage must then be implemented.
However it is almost always the case, that such large media files are wanted to be stored internally rather than actually needed, in which case the external HD is both prudent as well as necessary. Additionally costs per MB are infinitely less on an external HD than an internal SSD in any consideration of data expansion needs.
A Professional Example
In the case of a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro Retina with ‘limited’ storage on the SSD, this distinction becomes more important in that in an ever rapidly increasing file-size world, you keep vital large media files, pics, video, PDF collections, music off your SSD and archived on external storage, for sake of the necessary room for your system to have free space to operate, store future applications and general workspace.
You should also never be put in the position of considering “deleting things” on your Macbook SSD in order to ‘make space’. This is especially what your external HD is for.
Professionals who create and import very large amounts of data have almost no change in the available space on their notebooks internal SSD because they are constantly archiving data to arrays of external or networked HD.
Or in the case of the consumer this means you keep folders for large imported or created data and you ritually offload and archive this data for safekeeping, not only to safeguard the data in case your Macbook has a SSD crash, or gets stolen, but importantly in keeping the ‘breathing room’ open for your notebook to operate, expand, create files, add applications, for your APPS to create temp files, and for general operation.
Slim USB3 1TB external hard drive
External Hard Drives
External hard drives are both extremely cheap and regardless of the size of your internal SSD (or even internal hard drive if the case), you need an external hard drive with your SSD equipped Macbook for several reasons:
1. Data backup and protection.
2. Redundancy for important data.
3. Necessitated ideal space for large media files for collections of pictures, videos, and music etc.
While ever changing in price, typical portable 2.5” external hard drives in USB3 run roughly $65 for 1TB or $120 for 2TB small portable USB3 hard drives. Such drives range in thickness between 5mm and 15mm, with recent improvements in storage of 500GB drives in 5mm profiles.
There is almost no premise in which a small 12mm thick 1 Terabyte USB hard drive cannot be taken along with any Macbook as an external large storage extension inside any Macbook carry case or pouch. Typically such external HD profiles are not much bigger than a deck of cards.
External hard drives are a foregone necessity for purchase with any Macbook for at the very least Time Machine backups, data redundancies, and ideally for large media storage.
Parking it
75% of the data that's stored on someone’s notebook from countless studies has not been accessed for more than one year. Keeping this ‘dusty’ data on your notebook SSD is bad due to:
1. Internal SSD/HD bloat.
2. Encourages the hazardous and lazy practice of pivoting important data on your SSD, which can fail, be stolen, lost, destroyed, and which would result in serious data loss.
3. Such data needs to be parked into passive external HD archives.
On any SSD drive, unless you are using the data at least every month or so, or more accurately on a regular basis every couple of weeks, it is extremely unlikely that data needs to be or should be on your internal SSD as static data and wasting space when it should be on an external hard drive instead.
The best use of large media files on external portable slim hard drives is to load the media when needed from your external HD to your Macbook, consume it, then delete it from your internal SSD, leaving it on your external for use again later at some point.

I'm trying to upgrade my iCloud storage for the new price.

I'm trying to upgrade my iCloud storage for the new price, but it doesn't gives me the option of 20G for $0.99 a month.
How can I get 20g for $0.99 a month?
Thanks!

Katherine,
have you read the message in the panel? Something is wrong with your credit card. Perhaps you have to enter a new date of expiration.
In the small print it says, there is still a purchase, that needs paying,"Ugly Heart" with an amount of R 9.99. And "We were unable to authorise your credit card for this purchase". You will first have to update your Billing Information before you can proceed to make a new purchase for upgraded storage. Click "Account Details" in the iCloud panel.
-- Léonie
If you cannot fix the account from the iCloud panel, open iTunes and sign into the "Store" menu, Then use the "Store > View account" item there to check for problems with your Billing Information.

Why can I not upgrade my iCloud storage on iOS

Why can I not upgrade my iCloud storage on iOS

Hard to say why that would be. Suggest you contact iTunes store support for help with this: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html. They normally deal with iTunes and app store issues, but they should be able to tell you if there's an issue with your iTunes account that is preventing the purchase and how to correct it.

TS4009 I have just upgraded my icloud storage and realised I need to cancel how can I do this?

I have just upgraded my icloud storage thinking I could back up all files ie Word Excel and photos from my PC, I know realise I cannot, how can I cancel my subscription and get my money back?

I accidentally purchased a $20 icloud storage upgrade for my iphone. Unable to find any way to cancel this order on my phone or online, I was left with no option but to call Apple. The first 20 minutes of the conversation with Ayesha in retail has required my phone serial number, my apple id, my apple security questions, my Visa expiry date, my visa number.... with multiple request that I stay on hold. I asked for an incident number for my call so I would have a record of the call in case the return did not go through. No incident number was provided by Ayesha. I was then put on hold and transferred to Andrew who then transferred me to Monica. Monica in icloud dept asked me to give all the same information over again because she said there was no record of my security verification. Forty minutes in total for a $20 refund! It would be easier to drive to a store and return a shirt! The inefficiency cost is enormous to both Apple and myself. Profit margin must be HUGE for Apple to offer such poor service and still stay in business.

I upgraded my cloud storage from 2G to 120G and today it went back to 2G and I cannot save my work. Anyone experience this? Unable to get any customer service.

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

Upgrading macbook pro storage

I am probably going to buy a MacBook Pro with Retina. I'm probably only going to get the 256GB SSD, because $500 more to upgrade to 512GB seems too much. I know that I won't be able to upgrade the SSD myself later, but what I'm wondering is, if I do need more storage, can I can pay Apple later to upgrade the storage for me? I have heard about people doing this through the Apple factory but I don't know if it's true. Or would I be stuck with the 256GB indefinitely unless I went with a 3rd party seller?

You're stuck with the 256GB that your Retina came with....
In the future - it might be possible to upgrade the flash storage since it's attached via daughter card....
at this time however, it is non upgradeable.....
taking it to Apple for upgrading it to a larger one isn't possible at this time once you buy it...
good luck..

Can I upgrade I cloud storage plan remotely?

I urgently need to upgrade storage plan or risk losing. I am on holiday and only access to hotel computer. How can I upgrade I cloud storage remotely?

I'm afraid you can only do this with a computer or iOS device which is signed into iCloud in the Preferences/Settings/Control Panel. You can't do it from the iCloud website.
Am I right in assuming you are an ex-MobileMe subscriber who has had free extra storage, due to expire tomorrow? If so the procedure is different from the normal upgrade procedure.
If you wish to continue your current storage level, the instructions are here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5527
Scroll down to 'How do I purchase my current plan?' and expand the section applicable to your computer or device.
I'm afraid that you will have to find a suitable Mac or iOS device and use that to sign in - you are not likely to be able to do this on a hotel-provided computer. If you can get to an Apple Store then you could make an appointment with the 'Genius' and ask them to do this.
If you are able to find a way of doing this on someone else's computer, make sure to sign out afterwards and then go to http://appleied.apple.com and change your password.
You will need to sign out and back in on your devices once you have done this.

Andy,
We are currently in the same situation as you. Seems we have been "Spoofed",,,, e-mails "TO" us and also sent "From" us.... Both to and from using our old <xxxxxx.mac.com> address. We are getting about 15 of the e-mails a day. All from some version of "Med Store",, "Great Medical Store",, "Erect Meds Cheap",, and other variations of same.... Each one has a different "Link" in the text, but we never launch them.
The amazing part is that for the past six weeks they all indicate that they originate from a different address. Some foreign and some from US addresses. So, we cannot write a "Rule" banning the originating address.
We did write a "rule" that send them to "Junk" and forwards each one to <[email protected]>.
Anyway,,,, we are ready to change our address, but are in the same "can't be done easily boat" as you.
Seems we have to start all over and establish an entirely new Apple Account. (Our old one will remain out in cyberspace forever)..... Seems strange.....
Our reluctance remains with stuff like our Calendars, Notes, iTunes, Apple Store purchases, etc......
We have posted questions here and on MacRumors, but seem to never get good answers..... Most say just "live with it" and maybe it will stop.
And like you we found out about using Alias' to late... shame on us....
Very confusing and frustrating.....Still open for any input....
Mike
