Help is needed in restoring DB to new host

Hello ,
I posted new thread two days ago , but yet, haven't succedded in restore my DB from host A to host b .
I need to do a test case , backup database at 11:00 , make some changes , (create / drop tables , whatever ) , take incremental level 1 at 11:15 , make more changes , plus another incremental level 1 backup at 11:30 .
At the end of that , I should try to to restore the Database called DB1 , into host b , for the changes made before the backup of 11:15 (that is , set until time ... 11:15) .
the problem is that I sit on that thing for about a week ,
and each time get another error at the end of the process when trying to run :
"recover database / recover database noredo" .
Here is what I do in host a :
[b]% setenv ORACLE_SID DB1

exit host a
Now I create same directories I have in host a , also in host b ,
I have my init.ora file from host a and put it in host b ,
and have all backups taken in host a , available in host b (got them through ftp) .
here comes my question , I look at the pdf books of oracle and do somthing like that in host b :
setenv ORACLE_SID DB1
% sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
SQL> startup nomount pfile=initDB1.ora
SQL> exit
% rman target / nocatalog
RMAN > set dbid 1206648960 ;
RMAN > restore controlfile from autobackup until time "to_date ('25-01-2007 10:35','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi')";
## to get back in time to the changes made before userb was created !
RMAN > alter database mount ;
RMAN > restore database ;
RMAN > recover database noredo ;
RMAN > alter database open resetlogs ;
I don't run the whole process in host b , cause the restore is written somewhere , and I don't know where , and in the next time I try to run the restore operation , I get another kind of error message , and have to start the whole thing from the begining .
what's wrong in my process ? it's either I got errors about my files that are older than the last time of the resetlogs , or the DB is recovered to its most current state , after the creation of userb .
please advice . what should I change in my process ? it has been 3 days that I fail to recover my DB , and all I do is taken from oracle tecnet or metalink site .
Thanks in advanced ,
Lior .

I think I found what was wrong .
when I use restore controlfile until time , it means that if I wrote 13:00 the recover should be at least to 13:01 (for example) .
meanwhile it works , I'm going to do some more tests to be sure .

Help Desperately Needed to restore Photoshop 10 catalog to Windows 8 computer and PSE 11

I am trying to backup my Photoshop Elements 10 catalog from my old computer running Windows 7 and restore to my new computer running Windows 8 and Photoshop Elements 11. I reconnected missing files, optimized and repaired the catalog, then repaired and re-indexed visual similarity date. I backed up to the hard drive on the old computer, copied the files to the external hard drive, copies the files from the external hard drive to the desktop of the new computer. From there I opened PSE 11 organizer and tried to restore. When the restore is almost complete I get the following error: "error encountered while restoring. It's recommended that you contact the disc drive manufacturer and upgrade to the latest available firmware for your specific disc drive before trying again.". I also had disabled the virus protection on both computers. I have contacted the external hard drive manufacturer and they are confident the problem is not with the external hard drive. I have spent countless hours on chat with Adobe Technical Chat. I have done everything that has been suggested to fix the problem and I still get the same error message. They referred me to their 800 number for paid technical support and I was on hold for a total of 4 1/2 hours and after being trransferred several times no one came back on the line to help. I have an open case with them and they still have not returned my calls. I even tried using the same backup catalog file and restored to another PC running Windows 7 (and Elements 10) and it worked. Why can't I restore the catalog to Windows 8? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Please advise.

Yes, you can get the songs off your iPod. This question gets asked a lot.

9i Database - Restore to a new host, validating RMAN backup

Hi all,
I could use your help, for any of you who remember how to do this in 9i. On one of my production databases, running 9.2.0.6.0, I have a nightly RMAN script that writes the backup to a large shared drive (this is on a Windows 2003 server). This backup uses a recovery catalog.
I have a test server, and I want to try and restore last night's backup on this test server, without touching the recovery catalog - purely as a means to go through the recovery process, and to validate our backups (this is also for SOX compliance, as this database is for the financial system).
I have been looking through the 9i documentation, and was hoping to have some detailed steps here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96566/rcmrecov.htm#1007514
but I don't see a lot of information there.
I believe that this should be a rather simple process. On the test server, I have installed the 9.2.0.6 software, and created the Oracle Service using the same name as production. The test server can also see the shared drive that houses the backup files from the production system.
Here are the steps I am trying, please let me know what I need to change. Thanks all!!

RMAN-06172: no autobackup found or specified handle is not a valid copy or piece

Many thanks for the helpful replies so far, Hemant!! I had to shelve this issue for a few days, back at it today.
I have made some progress, I am able to restore the control file now - what I am doing, is copying the autobackup controlfile from the network drive over onto the server locally (E:\oracle\ora92\database\BACKUPCONTROL.ORA), then I am able to restore the controlfile with this:
restore controlfile from 'E:\oracle\ora92\database\BACKUPCONTROL.ORA';
And I can see that it restores all 3 of my controlfiles.
The next step would be to do the database restore. When I issue the "restore database;" command, I can see that it lists out all of the datafiles that it needs to restore from the backup set, but then after about a minute, I see these error messages pop up:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

ORA-27091: skgfqio: unable to queue I/O
ORA-27067: skgfdisp: size of buffer is invalid
OSD-04026: Invalid parameter passed.
When I looked up those last 2 error codes on Metalink, I see document ID 213858.1 that looks like this normally happens when the backup piece that has Read-Only permissions. I have confirmed that the backup files on the network drive are not Read-Only, I have full Read/Write privileges on them. So once again, I am stumped.
Any thoughts? I might go ahead and log an SR for this, to try and get it resolved.
Thanks!

Restoring on a new host fails.

it is SOA Suite 10.1.3.1, and upgrade to 10.1.3.3.1.
this suite run on windows 2003.
I do the restoring action according to admin guide chapter 18.3.3
but when run the 3rd step:
bkp_restore.bat -m node_restore -o inst_register
it prompts:
Service Oracle-OracleSOAServerProcessManager in a state that can't be recreated.
Please remove it manually first.
I have checked, there is no Oracle-OracleSOAServerProcessManager service on the new host.
what does this means, and how to resolve? any suggestion?

Do this.
Stop services in A, make a copy of all Oracle Home, etc/oratab, /var/opt/oracle and so on
and coppy them to the B.
Then in B, restore the copy and make a chmod -R 750 for the complete ORACLE_HOME, then run the root.sh
After that, just make a little change in the host file, and put as an alias the name of A in B.
Then run the script $OH/chgip/scripts/chgiphost.sh -mid
and for the source use a and target use b for name and ip.
Check the log and if it's ok, just remove the name of A in the host file as alias.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

Help/advice needed - cannot restore iPod!

My iPod was working fine, until I tried to update it! Then my computer froze, and the iPod just showed the 'Do Not Disconnect' for hours. The iPod icon wasn't showing up in iTunes or on my desktop, so I disconnected it, and now I just get the little folder and exclamation point icon.
I have followed all the advice on the various Apple documents,, but every time I try to restore it, the update doesn't seem to recognise the iPod, and keeps telling me 'Plug in iPod', even though it is plugged in. I have tried using different USB ports, and the iPod does show up in My Computer (as Drive F), but the updater refuses to recognise it.
I have tried -
Resetting iPod
Putting it into Disk Mode
Have reinstalled Itunes, and redownloaded the iPod updater. Have also tried using old updaters, as well as reinstalling off the original CD that came with the iPod.
Have installed Service Pack 2, run Scan Disk, disconnected firewalls, AVG anti-virus etc.
My iPod is fully charged, but when I turn it on I keep getting the Apple logo, then the folder/exclamation point icon.
Any help/advice much appreciated!
Thank you

HELP! Need to restore corrupt file/recover deleted file from LIGHTROOM Catalog

Hi,
I recently edited a wedding I finished and sent to her via WeTransfer. It showed that she opened the file, so I deleted it off of my computer. A few days later she said she couldn't open the file because it was corrupt (at this point I couldn't resend because I had deleted it as stated).
She sent it back to me to see if I could try opening -- but every time I try to open in Lightroom it reads:
Unexpected Error Opening Catalog
The Catalog could not be opened due to an unexpected error.
Can ANYONE help me recover this file?? I've also tried to run a Data Recovery software to retrieve it from the trash, but it won't recognize .lrcat files (it brought up all of the .jpegs, photoshop, .tiff files etc -- but no lightroom catalogs.
I REALLY really really don't want to have to re-edit 1000 photos again.
Thanks so much in advance for any advice xo

Help - Constantly needing to restore iphone 3

I have had to restore my iphone 3, 4 times in the last 3 weeks. The phone just completely crashes for no known reason and is only a year old. Have booked an appointment for genius but as have to drive over an hour to get there am wondering if you have any ideas on my problem

You should be able to sync the iPhone 3 to select the photos to transfer to your computer. If you have someone with a windows computer (assuming yours is not) you can obtain the photos through the windows sync from autoplay. I'm not sure how Mac handles it. Your data in the contacts and notes is what would go across with a restore from backup and other than taking multiple screen shots and emailing these to yourself (extremely tedious) I'm not sure how you would be able to transfer this information across. Hopefully someone else has the answer. Best of luck

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmrecov002.htm#sthref723
I have connected to rman using following command
c:\>set oracle_sid=orcl
c:\>rman target rman/zaffar@rman nocatalog
rman>set dbid 111122
it gives me following error
RMAN-03002
RMAN-06188
but rman is running in catalog mode that disallow me to set the dbid of the target database and because of this I am unable to proceed further.
Kindly help.

Asif

RUN
# allocate a channel to the tape device

RMAN Restore on a new system

Hi,
We are planning to impletment RMAN backups on our production systems. We took a RMAN backup and wanted to restore into another server using different sid and db name, without disturbing the running production database. We came across some errors and we need some help.
Oracle Version - 9.2.0.7
OS - Windows 2003
Envirnoment
=========
Host A - DB1
Host B - DB2 (Directory sturcture is different)
Host C - Catalog
Step 1. I took a full backup of DB1 on Host A connected to the catalog.
Step 2. Copied the pfile and backup files from Host A to Host B.
Step 3. Changed db_name, instance_name in Host B pfile.
Step 4. Created oracle instance using oradim utility.
Step 5. Started rman utiliy - rman target /
Step 6. Resorted Controlfile
Step 7. Mount database <---- Here we get an error
Let me know if the above steps are wrong.
RMAN> alter database mount;

ORA-01103: database name 'DB1' in controlfile is not 'DB2'The db name in the controlfile doesn't match the spfile/init file.
If the database is on a separate server, then you shouldn't need to worry about the db_name being the same. But if you are determined to have a new database name, you could restore the database with the same database name and then change it with the nid utility.

Just had to replace iPad so I need to restore from other backup. iTunes has sync error that others say require uninstall and reinstall. "iTunes was unable to load prover data from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later." If I uninstall, will I lose

Just had to replace iPad and itunes has following error. "iTunes was unable to load provider data from Sync Servies. Reconnect or try again later." I read that others suggest uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. If I do this, will I lose my old iPad's backup that I need to restore to this new one?

I've resolved the issue with iTunes constantly not responding. It's a bit embarrassing. I had a DVD in the drive that was corrupt, and once I was able to remove it - BAM - iTunes ran perfectly.
I'm still getting the Sync Services message, and my backups are still not showing in iTunes.
Getting there.... I hope!

My old laptop crashed and I need to restore my iTunes music and movies to my new laptop from my iPod Touch. Help please. Thanks!
