Global Name change

Hi.
I've to gonfigure a replication management onto two db Oracle
8.1.7 but who installed that configured the same global name.
How can I change it in one of these db without re-installing ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Enrico.
Use alter database rename global_name to your.global.name
In the 8.1.X versions there is a global_name parameter in the
instance initialization file XXX.ora but its changing has no
effect. I guess, that database reads this parameter once at
first startup and store in the global_name table, so the only
correct way to change global name is "alter database rename... "
Best regards,
Andrew

Changing global name of SES db

Hi,
I installed SES. While trying a simple sqlplus connect to the db, I saw that the global_name of the SES db is set to SES.server_name instead of SES.domain_name. I changed it with the alter database command and I found 2 config files: <ses home>\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_SEARCH\config\data-sources.xml and <ses home>\search\webapp\config\search.properties. I also changed the listener.ora and restarted everything. After that I could login to the admin page http://server:port/search/admin/control/login.jsp and create a source, do some config etc. When trying to execute a schedule, I got the error EQG-30050: Could not connect to database. In the crawler log file, I could see the connect string was still wrong, using as service_name my old global_name.
So my question is: where can I find the crawler settings or what do I have to modify when the global name of the SES database has changed?
Kind regards,
els

It worked fine after the first install. But the db configuration assistant has set the global_name of the database to SES.<servername> instead of SES.<domainname>, which is the standard in our company.

Handling table name changes

Hi,
Because of a change in naming convention, all our source table names are changing (only the prefix: The rest of the name and the table structures will remain the same). We already have developed a significant number of OWB mappings based on the old naming convention. What is the OWB equivalent of doing a global search replace of table names ? Is there a script available for doing this ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Biswa.

The name changing part should be relatively simple to handle. I have included a script that should do the renaming with the prefix 'WH_'. The reconcile will have to be done by you. The script should go something like this (please test your scripts in a test environment as I will not provide support for this).

DB column name changes and APEX

All,
I found out that the database architect is planning to make changes to several of the column names in all of the tables I use in a large application. So...rather than open every screen, every condition, every procedure, etc. looking for the db fields I need to change, I am hoping I can find a way to do it in sql*plus.
At a minimum, I hope to be able to create a report for each table/column referenced in the application that will show the pages and places where it is referenced. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steve

Patrick directed me to the Object Dependencies report - and it would work but you have to click on the "count" to see where it is referenced. I am hoping for a detail report. Patrick also suggested editing an application export to do global column name changes - that will also work. If you have done it differently, let me know.

What's the difference among "global name", "db_name","instance_name"......?

Hi. Everyone.
I am really confused about the following.
What are the difference among
1. global_name
2. db_name
3. instance_name
4. domain_name
5. SID
6. service_name(tnsnames.ora)
Can anybody explain the difference among them clearly?
I read some documents, but I am really confused.
One more question!!
Can I set or change "global name" in initSID.ora file?(not global_names)
I used the following command on "open-mode", but it seems to be permenant.
After I re-started the databases, I found that global_name was changed.
-->alter database rename global_name to "global_name".
--> shutdown and restart
--> select * from global_name.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Ho

Help needed. I have a 3TB external hard drive partitioned into 1TB's. I used one partition as backup for the main computer hard drive. But now it is greyed out as shown in the disk utility and its name changed, i dont know how that happened, i tried verifying and repairing it but had no luck. I also tried mounting and unmounting it but still no solution. Anyone to help please?

Looks bad. I would strongly advise backing up the stuff on the other two partitions as soon as possible in case the rest of the drive goes wrong.
Beyond that, Disk Utility has limited abilities to repair disks, DiskWarrior uses a different approach and might, emphasis might be more successful. It has certainly done the job for me in the past when Disk Utility could not.

Please read my question carefully, this is, I think, a question for the experts. It's not the usual name change question.
When I setup my new MacBook Pro, something slipped by me and my computer was named First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro (using my real first and last name).
I changed the computer name in Preferences/Sharing to a new name and Preferences/Accounts to just be Mike. I can right click on my account name, choose advanced, and see that everything looks right.
However, If I do a scan of my network with my iPhone using the free version of IP Scanner, it lists my computer as First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro! And it lists the user as First-Last.
So even though another Mac just sees my new computer name, and my home folder is Mike, somewhere in the system the original setup with my full name is still stored. And it's available on a network scan. So my full name might show up at a coffee shop.
Can I fully change the name without doing a complete re-install of Lion and all my apps?

One thought... you said the iPhone displayed your computer's old name? I think that you must have used the iPhone with this computer before you changed the name. So no one else's iPhone should display your full name unless that iPhone had previously connected to your Mac. For example, I did this exact same change, and I use the Keynote Remote app to connect with my MacBook Pro. It would no longer link with my MacBook Pro under the old name, and I found that I had to unlink and then create a new link under the new name. So the answer to your question is, there is nothing you need to do on the Mac, but rather the phone, and no other phone will display your full name.

Is there a way to do a global font change in iWeb '09?

Hi,
I inherited a web site, created in iWeb '09. I've got the site files on my Mac ... when I start iWeb,
and select a page to edit, it complains:
The following errors occurred while trying to open this page:
Missing Font TrajanPro-Regular
Missing Font TrajanPro-Bold
Missing Font HelveticaNeue-Roman
Many (most or all) pages in the web site need these three fonts.
Thru googling, I know that those three fonts are proprietary fonts that I could purchase.
However, it seems silly to buy and install a font when the web server and end-user's
browser won't have it (and will therefore get substituted at their end).
Therefore, I think that my best choice is to change all uses of those fonts in the web site to
be uses of some "standard web fonts".
So, how do I do a global font change or substitution in iWeb '09? It seems like an awfully
obvious thing to want to do. (Finding each instance of use and manually selecting the text
and doing a font change is simply not feasible.)
(E.g.: Change "HelveticeNeue-Roman" to "Helvetica Regular")
thanks,
Stan

Logical system name changes

All,
Has anyone faced a scenario where you need to change the logical name for any SAP system?
For instance:
System      Logical Name                                                    System      Logical name B
BW                      A                     system is pointing to            ECC                  B
ECC will be upgraded and system name will changed to C
Is that possible? If so do you forsee any issues? Can we switch ECC B to ECC C with no issues?
I appreciate any help.
Regards

Batch rename, name changes after frame 99

Hi, I put a folder into bridge to do a batch rename and called the text MILAN/SYRIA and gave for first number 00.
After frame 99 the name changed to a weird Adobe Bridge Batch Rename Temp 10037
Which you can see better in the RAW windows, the 99 and the following one.
Photoshop doesn't like to open a name like that, can't blame her.
of course I strongly suppose that I should have given 3 digits in Batch rename, and l am looking for your confirmation, and while I am here
why was my card full at 0485 pictures when a folder I think takes as many as 9999, how do you finish a folder if your card is full?
i suppose you change card and you keep going with the same folder? Sorry about the camera question, couldn't keep it, thanks dona

no,no, i started with 00 two digits only, batch rename changed to 623 after i put the folder back in just in order to take the screenshot, i dont know why but that always happens if i put the folder back in after usage, but i do know for life now that if I am going to take over 100 shots, which is most of the time, i should start with 001 or 000.
See, this is the first number that was given to the first file, 01,WHICH actually became 00, i don't have it here.
So it rest to know where is "Preserve file name " in current metadata, and would that make it possible to revert to the original CR2 number?
Why not to change name straight from the new name? thanks

Outlook does not connect to Exchange 2013 after name change due to marriage

When launching Outlook and clicking through the setup wizard to create a new profile, Outlook auto-discovers the correct email alias. When establishing a connection it successfully checks network connectivity and successfully searches the email settings.
When it attempts to logon to the mail server the error comes up.
"The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
Clicking "Check Name" gives the error:
"The name cannot be resolved. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
The same result occurs with a manual setup.
We are running Exchange Server 2013. User workstations are running Outlook 2013 on Windows 7 Pro. All updates have been applied as of March 31, 2015.
All name changes have been made in AD and Exchange. Old aliases and new aliases are set in Exchange. Offline Address books are updated daily. The local profile and registry settings have been updated on the workstation and the user is successfully logging
into the profile. The issue is only with Outlook 2013. User can access mail through OWA and ActiveSync on their mobile device.
Logging the user into another workstation and running the wizard returns the same results, which rules out the possible problem being with the workstation.

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that failed auto-configure Outlook with error “The name cannot be resolved. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable…”, however OWA works fine.
If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Are all account or any special user experience this question?
If OWA works fine, it indicate that the mailbox database is mounted, and mailbox works well.
I notice that you have changed the account name before issue arise, because external access, the client locates the Autodiscover service on the Internet by using the primary SMTP domain address from the user's email address.
More details about Autodiscover service, for your reference:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124251.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
Please try below command to force update address list, GAL, OAB, then test again:
Get-AddressList | update-AddressList
Get-GlobalAddressList | update-GlobalAdressList
Get-OfflineAddressBook | Update-OfflineAddressBook
If the issue persists, please wait for some time to complete configuration.

Is it possible to do a GLOBAL color change for both text and graphics in ACrobat XI?

I used to do this using the Pitstop Pro plugin but now Pitstop is almost $900 and this is the only thing that I would use it for, not worth the investment
I can change text color by selecting individual text items, but I want to change all of the red text into white text
I also need to change all of the red graphics into white graphics and I can't figure out how to do that either
I have a trial version of XI on a Mac and will buy it if it can do what I am trying to do, i.e. global color changes to both text and graphics
thanks!!

I have version 6, but it is way out of date, doesn't work on my current system, I downloaded a trial version of the new one, version 12 I think, now I have to decide if I can afford to buy it, it is not cheap!
oops, sorry, I didn't read your entire message, aargh!
I'll check with them if I can upgrade from this early version, thanks for the suggestion!

InDesign CS4: File names change to string of numbers

Occasionally, one of our users will save an InDesign CS4 file, only to have the file name change. For example, a file originally named "#kwn25501.bcbsNM.indd" was saved as "#kwn25501.bc157-1223857848."
If the user is not aware that this has happened, things can go horribly, terribly wrong in our production environment. The "numbered" file may be missing key elements, or be somehow be corrupt in some fashion. In one case, this led us to having to reprint a job because the "numbered" file was missing a photo; somehow, that file was used (and perhaps renamed after the fact) to create the final output.
We use Macs running InDesign CS4 6.0.5. Some of our Macs are running Tiger 10.4.11, while others are running Leopard 10.5.8. The problem seems to related to the Leopard machines, although that is not 100 percent certain at this point. All of these Macs are bound to Active Directory and save files to a Windows 2003 server. I know Adobe recommends against working on files over a network, but perhaps there is an explanation for this file renaming aside from network issues.
Any light that can be shed on this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Kevin Stauffer

Check to see if maybe your original filename is the problem.
You may need that particular name for a workflow reason, but some of the symbols in the middle of your filename are generally not a good idea. Especially working off of a server, file names should be ONLY alpha-numeric characters, no symbols, no periods (except for the file type) and only underscores or dashes to separate words, no spaces.
The reason is some of those symbols get picked up as machine language and all sorts of bad can happen as a result.

E-mail Attachment Name Changes

I have a following problem with mail attachments: When I drag the attachment from my mail window onto my desktop, the attachment name changes to "unknown". So for example, "cat.jpg" would become "unknown.jpg". To make this a bit more complicated, the problem is a bit random and from this it follows that sometimes the file keeps the original and correct file name and sometimes it changes it. Also, this problem occurs only when I drag the attachment (which normally is image) from email window, but if I pull the attachment from above the message window, where it has a little arrow and it shows all the attachment icons, this problem does not happen. I am running Tiger and Mail 2.1. It would we really great if you could take a sec to answer this if you have any idea at all what this problem might to be. Thanks!
Best, Rauno

Hi Rauno, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Hmmm, since it's random, might try this...
Quit Mail, then In your home folder, try moving this +folder & file+ to the Desktop then reboot...
First, Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these files to the Desktop.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail
Move to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
You can always move them back if it doesn't help.

Display name of shared calendar in Outlook clients after name change on the Exchange Server

I have changed the name of a conference room resource calendar on the Exchange server but the name change is not being reflected in the end user's Outlook clients. I tested a remove/re-add and that worked but I cannot have everyone in the company do this.
Is there anyway to force the change down to the Outlook clients?

I don't know for sure, but if this is the case, then it's highly likely that the GUID is used by the client after its first view of the calendar. From that point on, it appears it doesn't "revisit" the directory for updated names.
We'd need Outlook team feedback for confirmation.
