It looks like the archives are not written, or I can not find them. I check $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/arch and /data/MVS_P0/reco01 but it is not there. It worked before, but the person who configured it is on holiday. I know that I did 'something' that created archives (check the last three lines above), but that is somehow not working anymore.
Can someone help me by finding the archives?
(I need to make a online copy to create a standby-database, that is quite hard without archives. ;-))

The query above does not show errors:
DESTINATION STATUS FAIL_DATE VALID_NOW ERROR
INACTIVE UNKNOWN

I have set the log_archive_dest_1 to location=/data/MVS_P0/reco01/arch reopen=5
When I archive manually, the archives are written to /data/MVS_P0/reco01/arch

    Can you tell me how to enable automatic punctuation on a new MacBook Pro with retina? Thanks

    In which application?  (There is no system wide punctuation.) 
    And how is the computer supposed to know what is the correct punctuation?  For example "Let's eat, Mom!" versus "Let's eat Mom!"  (Sort of depends upon whether your computer has weathered the zombie apocalypse, I guess.)

  • Sybase - How to enable Automatic DB Expansion

    HI Friends,
    I am new to ASE.. have mostly worked on Oracle.
    I have installed a sap system on Sybase. I need to know how can i enable Automatic DB Expansion feature which i think i didnt selected during installation.
    I dont want to do this from DBACOCKPIT as this is not working properly and I need to run SGEN.
    please help.

    To bypass DBACOCKPIT will require a bit of background knowledge/understanding before setting up automatic db expansion.
    For starters I'd suggest taking a look at ASE 15.7 SP100 System Admin Guide, Chapter 16: Expanding Databases Automatically.
    If you still have questions after reviewing the docs ... just post back here with your specific questions.

  • Keychain: How to enable automatic access for certain applications?

    I have gotten really tired of Adium and Skype asking for the keychain password every time I reboot the machine, and Quicksilver neeing my system password all the time when installing updates.
    How do I enable automatic access to the keychain and system password for certain applications, but not all?
    PowerBook G4, 1.5 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hi, Bjørn.
    A. You wrote: "I have gotten really tired of Adium and Skype asking for the keychain password every time I reboot the machine..."There are two things to check. You'll use Keychain Access — in the Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities folder — for both.
    One key point to note before you begin: If the affected account was created under Jaguar, it's default keychain will have the same name as the account's short name. Accounts created under Panther or later have the default keychain name of "login." The user's default keychain is always highlighted in bold in the Keychains list in Keychain Access. All of the instructions in Mac Help regarding keychain assume the accounts were created under Tiger and always refer to keychain "login."
    Here are the two issues to check and correct:
    1. The affected account may have its keychain preferences set so that the keychain locks automatically after a period of inactivity or after sleep mode:1.1. Select the user's default keychain.
    1.2. Click Edit > Change Settings for Keychain "keychain_name."
    1.3. Deselect the checkbox next to "Lock after __ minutes of inactivity", if selected.
    1.4. Deselect the checkbox next to "Lock when sleeping", if selected.
    1.5. Click Save.2. The affected account's login password and keychain password are different. Set the keychain password on that account to be the same as the account's login password. See “Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Changing your keychain password.”
    Once those steps are taken, if an application requests access to the keychain, click Always Allow.
    Note that if you update applications, i.e. install later versions, you may be asked once to confirm the new version's access to your keychain. That's a standard security precaution.
    B. You wrote: "...Quicksilver neeing my system password all the time when installing updates."That cannot be prevented if that application is installed in the Macintosh HD > Applications folder using an installer, such as the Mac OS X Installer. Authentication is required if an installer will add or change files in either Applications or other System-related folders.
    Good luck!

  • How can I automatically archive my text messages?

    Is there a way to archive my text message conversations somewhere (iCloud, Gmail, Dropbox) and have them automatically sync at regular intervals?
    Please note I'm talking about ongoing archival, not just restoring a backup.
    Thanks for any tips.

    Not that I know of.
    I use PhoneView (Mac) to periodically manually archive my texts. It does very nice PDFs which I then store in DropBox and Evernote. TouchCopy (Mac and Windows) does something similar.

  • "Database log mode" &  "Automatic archival"

    I was asked to do the below
    "Database log mode" should be set to
    "No Archive Mode" now.
    Do not mix up "Database log mode" with
    "Automatic archival".
    Can you please tell me how to "disable databse log mode", with Automatic Archival enabled.
    Regards,
    Susan

    From documentation:
    ARCHIVELOG mode
    The mode of the database in which Oracle copies filled online redo logs to disk. Specify the mode at database creation or by using the ALTER DATABASE statement. You can enable automatic archiving either dynamically using the ALTER SYSTEM statement or by setting the initialization parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_START to TRUE.
    Running the database in ARCHIVELOG mode has several advantages over NOARCHIVELOG mode. You can:
    * Back up the database while it is open and being accessed by users.
    * Recover the database to any desired point in time.
    To protect the ARCHIVELOG mode database in case of failure, back up the archived logs.
    Configuring ARCHIVELOG Mode For the Database<a>
    <br>
    Or you can check this tutorial from Oracle:
    Disabling Automatic Archiving
    <br>
    <br>
    Or something like this:<br>
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    shutdown
    startup mount exclusive
    alter database noarchivelog
    alter database open
    <br>
    And I don't know if it's needed to have automatic archival enabled since the database will not be in archive mode.

  • How can I stop Mail from automatically archiving every incoming and outgoing email?

    Mail is automatically archiving every incoming and outgoing message, and then synch'ing that with my iPhone -- thus sucking up all available memory.  I have never asked it to automatically archive everything, and can't figure out how to stop it.  Any ideas?

    Launch Mail.
    Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced
    Uncheck the box beside "Include when automatically checking for new messages".
    Do it for all accounts if you want.
    Best.

    You can only archive data based on archiving objects and not based on individual tables as it has to maintain the consistancy within the database.
