HOW TO MAKE A GOOD BACKUP?

Hi !
I'm fresh in oracle technologies and i've got a question for you:
I want to make a backup of my database and i don't know how to do it - i wrote a lot in internet but i still have same problems.
First:
I want to make backup my database everyday in night. - it may be incremental
I want to make one full backup every week
i don't know what files i need to backup. Let take the situation that my machine is down and i need to make a server one more time - install system (win 2003) and oracle 10.2g -
What next ?
How should I recover now my database?

This question should be posted on the database forums. This is for Oracle Secure Backup product specific questions.

How to make a good quality 8 Giga DVD out of a Project in AVI of 14 Gigas?I have a film in a proyect

How to make a good quality 8 Giga DVD out of a Project in AVI of 14 Gigas?
I have a film in a proyect made with a miniDV camera in my old Premiere 6.5
It has 68 minutes and after exporting it with the Microsoft DV AVI compressor in 100 % quality and not compressing the audio, it ended in an AVI of 14 Gigas.
I would like to obtain a DVD of the best quality in audio and video possible. How can I do it? SHOULD I EXPORT IT FROM THE PREMIERE 6.5 WITH ANOTHER COMPRESSOR OR IN LESS THAN 100% QUALITY WITH THE SAME DV AVI COMPRESSOR ? my INTENTION IS TO USE THE NERO VISION AFTERWARDS... I HAVE THE NERO VISION 4...-. FROM 2007- WOULD IT BE OK OR IS THERE A BETTER ONE? - I know there are newer ones...but better?
I HAVE POSTED THIS A FEW DAYS AGO. THANKS TO THE PEOPLE THAT REPIED. BUT I THINK MY QUESTION IS NOTFULLY ANSWERED YET.
i NEED THE BEST QUALITY I CAN GET, EVEN WHITH MY PREMIERE 6.5, BECAUSE IT IS A FEATURE FILM THAT TOOK ME SEVERAL YEARS AND THIS LAST REMAKE IS NOW READY AFTER TOO MUCH WORK.
THANKS A LOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Thanks for your replys and sorry for being so fussy about this.
I have now seen that one of the options for exporting from Premiere 6.5 is Adobe MPEG encoder. So Do you guys think it would be a good idea to do it with that, Or Would it be better AVI or DV AVI compressor from Premiere before making the DVD?
I have the Nero Vision 4.9.6.6 But I may be able to look for another one if you think it is better...
Thanks a lot for your advises...

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
          Envelope Index
          ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

How to make a bootable backup of the operating system

Hi,
I am given the task to make a bootable backup of the OS (Solaris 9). I know I can use ufsdump to backup the system in single user mode. However, to make a backup bootable, shall I backup the file system to a DVD? Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Cinderella

i call it cloning the disk . you can install boot block as mentioned in second solution of cloning disk
e.g
# /usr/sbin/installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s0
################## solution 1 ####################################
dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2 of=/dev/rdsk/c0t4d0s2 bs=2048
############### solution 2 #####################3333
Now this is through but if the disk are from the same vendor (I tested also
dd on disks with different vendors and it function well) and if it the disk
are the same size my opinion is to use the dd command because it is easier
to be done. Anyway if the disk are not from the same size or vendor it could
be done also with ufsdump and ufsrestore. Here how it works and what I did
if your would like to clone a disk with ufsdump and ufsrestore:
For testing we have two disks:
     c1t2d0     (Source Disk)
     c1t2d1     (Destination Disk)
The source disk has the following layout (slice 4 and 5 are for Disksuite
metadb's but are not initialized or configured):
     0 root wm 0 - 634 471.29MB (635/0/0)
965200
     1 var wm 635 - 2014 1.00GB (1380/0/0)
2097600
     2 backup wm 0 - 2732 1.98GB (2733/0/0)
4154160
     3 swap wu 2015 - 2704 512.11MB (690/0/0)
1048800
     4 unassigned wm 2705 - 2718 10.39MB (14/0/0)
21280
     5 unassigned wm 2719 - 2732 10.39MB (14/0/0)
21280
     6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0)
0
     7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0)
0
On our testsystem the disk are the same size. Firstable the layout/label
from the source disk must be copied to the destination disk because with
ufsdump and ufsrestore this information will not be transfered to the
destination disk because this commands are based on filesystem. This is also
a difference between dd and ufsdump because dd copies also the information
from labels and layouts because this command is based on blocks and not on
filesystem. Here it is how it wors to copy the information from
layout/label:
     # prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0s0 > /tmp/z
     # fmthard -s /tmp/z /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s0
     fmthard: New volume table of contents now in place.
The slice 0 from the destination disk has now the same layout like the
source disk. This could be controlled with the command:
     # format
To transfer the information from slice 0 source disk to the slice 0
destination disk the destination disk must be prepared to work on it. It
means at the moment there is no filesystem on this disk. To do this use the
command newfs. No option are neccessary because for default the filesystem
would be ufs. Only the raw device/slice must given to the command that newfs
knows what exactly must be don:
     # newfs /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s0
     newfs: /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s0 last mounted as /
     newfs: construct a new file system /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s0: (y/n)? Y
Now we have a filesystem on slice 0 and we could mount the slice 0. This
would be made with the command mount and option -F for filesystem = ufs and
-o for read or write = rw and at least which slice = 0. At the end of the
command is the device with the slice which must be mounted:
     # mount -F ufs -o rw /dev/dsk/c1t2d1s0 /mnt
Now the device is mounted. With the following command ufsdump 0f = slice 0
and / = partition the filesystem / would be dumped. The whole dump would be
piped (I hope this is the correct english word) to the command ufsrestore
which would be executed in the mounted directory ufsresore and extracts the
dump.
     # ufsdump 0f - / | ( cd /mnt ;ufsrestore xvf - )
     Add links
     Set directory mode, owner, and times.
     set owner/mode for '.'? [yn] y
     Directories already exist, set modes anyway? [yn] y
     DUMP: 405886 blocks (198.19MB) on 1 volume at 406 KB/sec
     DUMP: DUMP IS DONE
After given the command, the partition / from source disk and / from the
destination disk looks based on files absolutly the same but there is a
information which MUST be changed and it is the information in "/etc/vfstab"
because on the destination disk in this file are the information from the
source disk (it means source disk will be mounted on the device c1t2d0 and
the destination diks on the device c1t2d1). This information must be changed
in "/etc/vfstab" on the destination disk:
     # vi /mnt/etc/vfstab
     ---------- /mnt/etc/vfstab ----------
     #device device mount FS fsck
mount mount
     #to mount to fsck point type pass at
boot options
     #/dev/dsk/c1d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c1d0s2 /usr ufs 1 yes
     fd - /dev/fd fd - no -
     /proc - /proc proc - no -
     /dev/dsk/c1t2d1s3 - - swap - no -
     /dev/dsk/c1t2d1s0 /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s0 / ufs 1
no
     /dev/dsk/c1t2d1s1 /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s1 /var ufs 1
no
     swap - /tmp tmpfs - yes -
     ---------- /mnt/etc/vfstab ----------
Now we changed the information and the work is done on slice 0. We can now
umount the slice 0:
     # umount /mnt
Proceed with the other slice similar like explained before. In our example
it would be:
     # newfs /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s1
     newfs: /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s1 last mounted as /var
     newfs: construct a new file system /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s1: (y/n)? y
     # mount -F ufs -o rw /dev/dsk/c1t2d1s1 /mnt
     # ufsdump 1f - /var | ( cd /mnt ;ufsrestore xvf - )
     Set directory mode, owner, and times.
     set owner/mode for '.'? [yn] y
     Directories already exist, set modes anyway? [yn] y
     # umount /mnt
Slice 4 and 5 are in our example not importante because this slice as
explained are for Disksuite metadb's and on the source disk there are at the
moment no information and no filesystem because Disksuite was not
initialized or configured.
It is a good idea to check the slices which where transfered files before.
This could be done with the command fsck:
     # fsck /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s0
     # fsck /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s1
     # fsck /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s2
     # fsck /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s4
     # fsck /dev/rdsk/c1t0d1s5
Now it seems that all what done but something is missing!? The destination
disk looks now like the source disk with one exception; there is NO
boot-block on the destination disk. If you don't create a boot-block the
destination disk would never be bootable. To do this the system where it
must be done must be from the same architecture like the source disk it
means if the source disk is based on sun4m and you give now the command from
a architecture like sun4u to the destination disk the boot-block would not
work. This is what by me happens by the test (source disk based system on
sun4m > to install boot-block I tried to give the command from sun4u based
system and after I tried to boot the destination disk > result = destination
disk was not able to boot). Ok we set now the command for boot-block to the
destination disk to create there a boot-block:
     # /usr/sbin/installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk
     /dev/rdsk/c1t2d1s0
Now you could boot the destination disk with the correct alias or the
correct device alias. If you don't know what the alias is give on the system
the following command:
     # ls -la /dev/dsk/c1t2d1s0
     /dev/dsk/c1t2d1s0 ->
../../devices/iommu at 0,10000000/sbus at 0,10001000/SUNW,soc@
1,0/SUNW,pln at a0000000,753a58/ssd at 2,1:a
End the OS with init 6 and stop the system reboot if the banner of OBP
appears with stop + A. After that you are on the ok prompt. To set an alias
give following command:
     # nvalias clone1 /iommu at 0,10000000/sbus@
     0,10001000/SUNW,soc@,0/SUNW,pln at a0000000,753a58/ssd at 2,1:a
Use the alias with:
     ok boot clone1
Have fun with you new clone...! I hope I did not forgett something but I
tested it several times and it worked every time absolutly nice with no
errors.

How to make a good quality 8 Giga DVD out of a Project in AVI of 14 Gigas?

I have a film in a proyect made with a miniDV camera in my old Premiere 6.5
It has 68 minutes and after exporting it with the Microsoft DV AVI compressor in 100 % quality and not compressing the audio, it ended in an AVI of 14 Gigas.
I would like to obtain a DVD of the best quality in audio and video possible. How can I do it? SHOULD I EXPORT IT FROM THE PREMIERE 6.5 WITH ANOTHER COMPRESSOR OR IN LESS THAN 100% QUALITY WITH THE SAME DV AVI COMPRESSOR ? my INTENTION IS TO USE THE NERO VISION AFTERWARDS... I HAVE THE NERO VISION 4...-. FROM 2007- WOULD IT BE OK OR IS THERE A BETTER ONE? - I know there are newer ones...but better?
OR SHOULD I JUST USE THE ACTUAL 14 GIGA AVI PROJECT AND PUT IT STRAIGHT INTO THE NERO ? I GUESS THIS NERO COMPRESSION SHOULD BE WORST THAN THE ONE THAT THE PREMIERE WOULD MAKE...
Thanks a lot for all the help and advise you could give me !!!!!!!!!!!!!
PS IF IT IS A PROBLEM TO MAKE A GOOD QUALITY 8 GIGA DVD I COULD JUST MAKE A 4 GIGA ONE...

68 minutes DV should fit just nice on a single dvd.
Feed the DV file directly into Nero. Nero will transcode everything for you.
You can also use AME from Premiere 6.5 and export the timeline direct to mpeg2-dvd.
Unfortunately i do not know if Nero is going to re-transcode this mpeg file before burning to dvd.

How to make a good menu!!!

Hi!!!
How can I make a good menu that it executes at runtime? Also this menu has to read a .txt file, which has the user permissions to display the menu according the connect user.
I try to do with javascript, but I don't know to read a file.txt with javascript and to give the parameters to the .java of the page.I have read a lot of manuals of studio creator and javascript and I don't read anything to do this.
I also see that some people do these menus in jsp, but the studio creators jsp code view is in XML, and the tutorial and examples of jsp are in pure jsp with html, so I can't use in studio creator.
Thankssss

I've read about the destruction due to sweat and have been careful where I put the iPod. I'm in the humid deep south, so I have a real concern.
I took it out on a run during a rainstorm on Jan 1, but didn't use the earphones. It only came along so it could record Nike+ data, and it was inside a baggie so it had a better chance of staying dry. It did fine.
My concerns are keeping moisture out of the data port and the headphone jack. Since I've got the Nike+ dongle, it's more difficult for moisture to get in there.
I've only had it in mild weather, minus rain. If it's fair weather, it clips to the front of my shorts off to the side, where I've seen that I tend not to drench my shirt with sweat. I thought of using a wrist strap, but there's been too many times where I've had sweat dripping off my wrists/palms.
Of course, this is way off topic, but I thought I'd give you my opinion.

How to make a bootable backup on external hard disk?

Hi guys, I want to ask how can make a backup of entire C(windows) drive on my external hard disk.I tried using backup option in my transcend hard drive
software but it gave me some errors..So I used backup option C:>properties and made a backup on my hard disk.But I am not sure if I can restore from it if my windows crashes coz I don't know if I can use this backup file from boot.So here's what I need
1)To make backup in hdd without having to wipe the it.
2)To make the backup bootable incase my windows crashes, I should be able to restore all my C drive..

Hi... I agree with your Number "2". I think that it is much better for you to install a backup tool e.g.aomei backupper (http://www.backup-utility.com/features/) and to forget about any possible troubles at all as the tool will backup everything you need and how you need, creating the whole image of the disk c which you can easily restore in case you have the crash.

How to make a full backup of my iPad without using iTunes

I need to make a full backup of my iPad. I am using the Vudu app and have many movies downloaded to my iPad. I have performed a backup of my iPad from iTunes onto my Macbook Pro. The mobile backup files on my laptop are not nearly big enough for the 20+ movies (at lease 1/2 to1 GB each). Because of this I do not believe iTunes has made a full backup including the movies. I want to avoid having to re-download all the movies if/when the iPad drive fails. I want a complete backup such as Time Machine or using some other external hard drive or app on my MacBook Pro.
I bought a Seagate Wireless Plus 1TB Mobile Cloud Storage with Built-in WiFi Streaming (STCK1000100) external hard drive and installed the Seagate Media App. I can, via the app on the iPad, see the device and copy to and from it. But, it only allows access to music, movies in iTunes (not any movies in Vudu), and things like documents on my iPad. It does not allow access to all the files inclding system files stored on the iPad. I also tried another Seagate non wireless external drive that I connected directly to the iPad but the Seagate Media app does not communicate with or recognize the device from the iPad.
I also bought DiskAid software that supposedly will make a complete backup of an App on a mobile device and installed it on my laptop. I was able to make a complete backup of the Vudu app from the iPad onto my laptop, but in a test could not restore it to my iPad. The backup file, though, was the right size, about 26 GB. The DiskAid techs are looking into that. I was able to use DiskAid to backup another app in a test (Hertz). That app made a backup of the Hertz app onto my laptop, I deleted the app on my iPad, then I was able to restore it. But right now the restore option is not working for Vudu.
Another option would be to copy the movie files off of the iPad onto my Laptop, but the iPad does not appear in the finder window on the Laptop.
I have about decided my MacBook Pro laptop will have to be the main repository for all the downloaded movies, since I can make a Time Machine backup of everything.
It is very frustrating to not be able to make a full backup of everything on my iPad.
Anyone else have any ideas? Apple - when are you going to provide a way to make a full backup of an iPad?

I recommend Super Duper as well. I use it batch mode to automatically back up my iMAC every night at 2 am. It's saved my life a couple of times- once my disk crashed (under warranty)and what could have been a disaster (1000's of irreplaceable photos) was a 2 day inconvenience.
Now and then I boot up from my backup on my firewire drive, wipe, check and reformat my internal hard disk, copy back all my files and I'm good to go

How to make a *full* backup (including the hidden partition), free solution prefered =) [T400]

Hi,
I'm planning on messing with my system a little (re-partition, install linux) and I want a full-proof recovery plan. This should work in case I *completely* mess up my HD (bad boot records, destroyed partitions, etc.)
I have an external hard drive with plenty of free space. How would I make a completely backup; something that would restore everything (including the hidden partition) to its current state?
Is there any way to do this using free/opensource?
Keep in mind that if there's a linux app that can do this, I can just boot up using a live CD and run the app from there.
Thanks in advance.

Vista or XP? What is/was the partition layout? IIRC, w/XP the 2nd partition is the service partition (hd0,1) and with Vista it is the first (hd0,0). I don't know if that is always the case, so how is your drive layed out?
ISTR that with XP the service partition is "hidded' by using an ID of 12 (or something) even though it is a FAT32 partition. Grub might be unhappy with the ID. Changing it to "C" might let it boot. That's just a WAG. My recollection is that the ID only affected where I could install the grub files, not what I could boot.
I've got some old notes here somewhere: www.beezmo.com/ThinkPadT61.htm maybe in "partitioning" or Windows XP.
**** grrr. the insert link thingy isn't working. the link above is literally correct, but the forum is inserting some invisible characters ****
I don't know clonezillla. Will it let you restore only one of the partitions? If so, do a restore to factory (with the recovery media you made immediately on receiving the laptop) and then restore only the Vista or XP partition from clonezilla.
HTH,
Z.

How to make a good clone of a Mirror RAID setup?

I have a Mac Mini Server running OS X Server (currently 10.6.8 but I'm in the process of upgrading to 10.8). The 2x500GB disk setup has been turned into two RAID-1 volumes: 400GB for OS X Server (disk2 = disk0s2 and disk0s1) and 100GB for a case sensitive volume that is mounted on /usr/local and which does not play a role in this story. I have a 400GB partition (/dev/disk4s2) on an external disk ready to receive the clone.
I want to make a good copy of the OS X Server disk. I was looking at several options:
dd - When running dd if=/dev/disk0s2 of=/dev/disk4s2, I can calculate that it will take 13 hours. Part of the reason for slow operation: both /disk4s2 and the boot disk for this operation are on the same external FW800 disk. dd if=/dev/disk2 of=/dev/disk4s2 is even slower.
ddrescue - interestingly tells me it needs to copy 9223 PBytes. I don't trust that so much so I stopped
Disk Utility - Select the / volume inside its RAID-1 entry and 'restore' it to a volume created by DU on /dev/disk4s2 (says it will do it in 2 hours, so is now running)
Disk Utility, create a read-only DMG on a volume on the partition reserved for it.
Use CCC (mainly rsync based) or SD commercial tools which operate on the file system level
I'm using the first DU option as that should give me a bootable setup in case of emergency. Did I miss a good option?

CCC would also give you a bootable copy and is the mothod I usually use, however I have also used the Disk Utility 'restore' method as well.
