How to add  a backup device

Hi all,
I am planing to take a backup for my XI PRD server on an external hard drive which is connected directly to the XI PRD sever via a USB cable.
Now my question where should we define it so that when we want to take a backup thru DB13 it should show my external HDD.... for the backup
Can anyone help me do this please, its urgent for us...
I am not sure where do we define the devices...
We are running SQL server 2005 on WIN 2003 server, ECC 6.0
waiting to hear more from you.
Thanks and regards
Hari

Hello Hari,
sorry for the late answer.
I don't know Oracle that much, but I think you must define a
backup_dev_type = disk
in the file init<DBSID>.sap stored in directory <ORACLE_HOME>/dbs (UNIX)
or <ORACLE_HOME>\database (Windows).
Syntax: backup_dev_type = disk | tape | pipe | tape_auto | pipe_auto |
                          tape_box | pipe_box | disk_copy | disk_standby | util_file |
                          util_file_online | stage | stage_copy | stage_standby |
                          rman_prep | rman_util | rman_disk | rman_stage
disk: Database backups to disk.
The directory that should be used for the backups is defined in parameter backup_root_dir or archive_copy_dir.
See the following links for further help:

Hope that helps,

  • Trying to add a Backup device to Webex servers on site

    We have WebEx local servers (inside and outside) version 2.5.1.132.B-AE I am trying to add a backup for our meetings and even recordings.
    We have Call Manager and Unity (CUCM) backups going to a network share using FTP. However with CUCM you can state a drive\folder to back up to.
    There is no option in WebEx for this, it wants a URL instead.
    Does anyone have an idea , how to back these servers up in my configuration?
    Thanks in advance
    Phillip

    Hi Mate - CWMS uses different storage method for backups than the CUCM/CUC etc. You need NFS storage for CWMS as thats the only supported storage method.
    Please refer to below link for more information:
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/collaboration/CWMS/2_5/Administration_Guide/Administration_Guide/Administration_Guide_chapter_01110.html#task_4A68696836634ECDADFE4B8223540617
    Use the storage server to back up your system and store meeting recordings. During a Disaster Recovery (see Disaster Recovery by using the Storage Server), these backups can be used to restore the system. (The supported storage method is Network File System (NFS)).
    Before You Begin
    Make sure that you configure your Unix access privileges so that your system can store user-generated content and system backups.
    On Linux-based storage systems, this depends on the configuration of your read/write permissions for anonymous users for a specific directory to be used for your Network File System (NFS). (See Connect a Linux Client to the NFS Share.)
    On Windows-based storage systems, this depends on the Network Access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users setting. In addition, you must provide the Everyone user group read and write permissions for the NFS. (See m_​ConfiguringNFSShare.ditamap.)
    Here is the link to configure NFS for windows server: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770569.aspx
    If you have linux server just Google setting up NFS for linux. Once setup create the rights as mentioned above and configure the NFS mount in the CWMS and you should be good to go.

    Kudos always welcome for helpful posts

    You might have better luck posting to the VXI and VME board - http://forums.ni.com/t5/VXI-and-VME/bd-p/350
    You can try the system configuration functions but I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't supported since VXI and VME are not widely supported any more.

  • Trying to add a DAQ device to NI-DAQ without hardware

    I am developing software for a DAQCard1200 on Windows 2000. I develop most of my software on a system without the actual hardware installed. Since the NI-DAQ dll will error on load under Microsoft C++ unless you have a device configued, I used to configure a device manualy on the development system under NI-DAQ.
    I am trying to use the latest version of NI-DAQ (6.9). I cannot seem to add a DAQ device unless I actually have the hardware installed.
    How can I work around this to add a device without the hardware or how can I get the dll to load without a device configured?

    I am not sure how to add any DAQ devices to MAX. When I right click Devices & Interfaces, I only get a list of SCXI, PXI and VXI devices/chassis. Is there another way of adding devices or expanding the list?

    If so, what on earth were you thinking? This person can get a free email address at a number of places - AOL, Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail to name a few.
    You will not be able to use your email address for your iTunes account now that you allowed someone else to use it for their iTunes account.

    ... however you can deauthorize older computers you no longer need to have authorized to your account to make way for a new one. If you have access to specific machines you can deauthorize individually inside iTunes, otherwise you can deauthorize all, then (re)authorize the machines you want.
