How to mount two tapes for differente backup types (FS bkps and RMAN Bkps)

Hi all,
I have installed OSB and at first time I just could run database backups through RMAN to my tape.
I created two tapes but all of then are mounting with a volume like VOL00000XX and I can't mount it in a volume like RMAN-DEFAULT00000XX anymore.
What do I need to do?
I have two tapes like that:
ob> lsdev --mount
drive TAPE_1 in service write obtar VOL000001
drive TAPE_2 in service write obtar VOL000001

Pending resource availability error message usually points to one of two things:
1) Tape is not available that OSB can use for the backup operation....this is what I suspect in your case
2) Tape drive not available
You have existing tapes in the library which have a vol-xxx ID...can only guess that is the "null" media family unless you have created another media family. The null media family is used for file system backup operations where a media family was not user defined. The null media family expiration is defined in the defaults/policies, media section. By default the null media family volumeretaintime is disabled meanding they won't automaticallly expire.
You should determine what media family was utilized to create the existing tapes....this will tell you what the retention methodology OSB is using. If OSB believes these tapes are still valid (ie no expiration time), OSB will not use them for future backup operations unless to same media family. If you tried to backup to rman-default media family but all tapes in library have already been assisned to another media family, then the backup operation will error out with pending resource availability.
You may want to review media families. If all tapes in library have been labeled and you want to unlabel to be able to use for different media family, you can do a force unlabel operation. Please know this effectively "erases" tape from OSB perspective so prior to doing that make sure there is NO valid backup data on tape you want to keep.

How can i set password for a backup?

::I am using 10g xe
I am gettin gbackup through RMAN, how can i set password for each backup? I want to protect my backup so that no one other could use it if he copies the backup files.
Faheem

Just use "SET ENCRYPTION ON IDENTIFIED BY password ONLY" command in your RMAN scripts. Look at the advanced backup manual for details: http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmbackp006.htm#sthref632

Excel sheet for difference between EP 6.0 and EP 7.0

Hi All,
Wish all of you a very very Happy New Year 2008.
Can some body send the excel sheet for difference between EP 6.0 and EP 7.0 to [email protected] asap.
Thanks in advance
Jyoti

Aaaaggghhhh.
Please could someone either get it uploaded as an article... or even easier, add it to the Portal Wiki. It has an attachments tab!
Then we won't have huge threads with e-mail addresses on (which bots will then pick up and send lots of spam to).
Many Thanks

Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
Reboot and try again.
If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

How to setup Time Capsule for wireless backup only

I have a new Time Capsule that I want to set up for wireless backups of both my Macbook Air (with Time Machine) and a Windows Vista laptop. I have an existing home wireless network with my Att/Uverse tv and internet service. I do not want to disturb that network/internet setup.
How do I set up the time capsule to use it for wireless backup only? When I start the Airport utility setup, the first thing it asks is do I want to 1) set up new network, 2) replace existing router, or 3) join existing network.

Thanks. That got me the green light and a message that everything was set up properly. It started it's first Time Machine backup and everything looked good for a while. But now I have a new problem.
The backup failed twice. The first time it had a message that it could no longer find the time capsule, so I had to reset it and go thru the setup procedures again. Started backup again overnight, and this morning it tells me that it failed again. But this time I still have my green light, and the message is "a network problem may have interfered with the backup.
I don't know what else to do with the setup to get it to work. Right now it has started backing up again on its own, so I'll leave it going one more time. (I should tell you that all of this is occurring on my Mac. I have not even started setting it up on the Vista machine. I want to make sure it works on the Mac first). Any advice from anyone who had the same problems with setup would be appreciated.

How long does it take for my Backup to be deleted if i stop paying for Icloud?

I am keen to understand how long Apple hold on to your data if you stop paying for iCloud.
I stopped paying for iCloud (without realizing) when i was between iphones.
I recently got a new iPhone and tried to restore it from an old backup, but it said it was only 5GB when i was previously paying for a large amount of storage and had completly backed up my phone.
I cant seem to find anything on this which is surprising.
Thanks in advance,
John

Thats pretty outrageous surely, Google and Microsoft give you a fair amount of time to either keep paying or to Download all your data from their platforms.

How to open two images for blending or layering them?

I know this will be a very stupid questions for hundreds of Photoshop users, but I have watched numerous video tutorials and read manuals and I still cannot open two photos into Photoshop to blend them. Specifically, when I go to File>Open and select the file, no problem. The image opens and is in the workspace; however, when I go to File>Open and select the second image, problem! The second image simply replaces the first opened image in th workspace. I also see how other simply slide one image over to another image to combine them; I simply cannot do that! What am I doing wrong, or what do I need to do to simply be able to combine the two photos for blending or layering.
I greatly appreciate your experience and help, and I am eager to get your answers!! Thank you!!

THANK YOU! Your answer was the correct answer. Like an idiot though, I clicked on "Answer Helpful" instead of "Correct Answer!"
I have already tried your suggestions, and everything worked perfectly the first time through. Thanks again for your help, as always!!

How to create two respone for one request

Hi
is there any way for us to create two response for one request
the scenario is as below
1. user click on update button for particular record in the datatable (
after its get updated and status get updated = 'UPDATED' it will remove the object from ObjectListDataProvider and clear the tablePhaseListener ).
2. After it gets updated successfuly , i want to prompt the user with generateExcel function which using response.getOutputStream() using Apache POI.
How can we combine 1 and 2 together
Here what i have tried and didnt work
1. i tried to put the generateExcel function in destroy() method after page is rendered but it gives me Exception
2. i tried to put the generateExcel function in prerender() method
but the page will only execute the generateExcel function
- the data still get updated to the database but it doesnt refresh the page ( i meant the removing object and tablephaseListener.clear() doesnt work )
3 . i tried to put generateExcel Function after it process the data
public String updateData()
       //update data
       if(success){
            // prompt user to save excell sheet
        return null;
     }This one also doesnt work and gives the same behaviour as number 2
The Prompt to save excel sheet still gets popped up
but the page just doesnt get refreshed
Thanks
is anybody know the workaround?

yea i did set some alert message and clear the table by calling
provider.removeRow and commitChanges
it just doesnt reflected in the page that we see
by actually is already removing the row from the provider
Thanks

F110 - How to group two payments for a single costumer

Hello experts,
I'm having an issue here. The user has 14 invoices, 11 of them are DR document type, 3 are DM doc. type. All of the 14 invoices have payment method 4. When we create the proposal for this costumer, two payments are created, one for all the DR invoices, and another one for the DM invoices.
What the business want is to be able to create only one payment, including both DM and DR invoices. I tried looking into FBZP for payment method "4", both in company code and country. I flagged "Single payment for marked item" and nothing changed, 2 different payments are still created for the same customer.
Also I looked into the customer master data, on the "Payment Transaction" tab, flagged the "Single payment" but it works exactly the other way, one payment document per invoice, which I do not need. I saw something about Grouping keys, created one with GL Account, Customer and Posting key but did not work, still two payments for the same document.
Is there anything else that I can try? Any help will be appreciated. Please let me know if something is unclear.
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Ivan

Hello DSK,
First of all thanks for the reply. I tried with the grouping key in the customer master data, I created one grouping key "02" and assigned it the customer but it did not work.
The grouping key is composed by:
KUNNR
BSCHL
HKONT
Which I think are common values between the DM docs and the DR doc.s
Regards,
Ivan

How to edit two starttime & end time into single start time and end time

my application is to reserve a resource for particular period of time
(min 1hr) so i store time into database as numerice value
i need to edit the reserved time
my problem is
(for eg)
a user reserve as 6.00 to 9.00
the same user reserve as 15.00 to 18.00 on the same day
if the user need to edit the time as 8.00 to 16.00 then i need to check the database and update it to 8.00 to 16.00 and those two reservation should not be present in the database
i dont know how to solve this problem
kindly help me in this regard
thank u in advance

How are you storing the two times?
If u r storing as two different records u need to delete them and add a new one
Other approach is to store the time as comma separated values like
6.00-9.00, 15.00-18.00. when u want to change them just update it with the latest value.

How to remove event handlers for a content type currently in use?

Hi,
We had a SP 2007 solution that managed event handlers as described in
Brian Wilson's blog regarding event handlers. We then did a in-place upgrade to SP 2010. It so happend that we wanted to remove some of our old event handlers and this is where our problem started. We managed to delete event handlers
(SPEventReceiverDefinitions) for
Site and List by using the ui from Brian Wilsons feature "Manage Event Handlers" (ref the link above), but not anyone at all for
Content Types... It simply wouldn't be deleted
(remove was grayed out in the ui).
We then tried to do it by code. Below is a code snippet illustrating how we tried to delete the event handlers for content types:
using (SPWeb web = properties.Feature.Parent as SPWeb)
string targetClassName = "targetClassName.";
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
// Removing Content Type event handlers
foreach (SPContentType ct in web.ContentTypes)
for (int i = ct.EventReceivers.Count - 1; i >= 0; i--)
if (ct.EventReceivers[i].Class.StartsWith(targetClassName))
ct.EventReceivers[i].Delete();
ct.Update(true);
web.Update();
The Content Types are not sealed and are
not readonly. When debugging, we can see that the
Delete() method are called on one of the Content Types we wanted to delete event handlers for. We noted that the
ct.EventReceivers.Count remains the same, before and after Delete() is called. We did not get any exceptions when running this code.
When running the code a second time and debugging again, we see that the very same Content Type still has the very same event handler attached... As in, it wasn't deleted....
We also tried to delete the event handlers through PowerShell as described
here in the post by Per Jakobsen. However, the script did not really seem to find any EventReceivers... We tried to write the
$site.AllWebs | % {$_.Lists} | % {$_.ContentTypes} | % {$_.EventReceivers} list to file, but it was empty.. We did however get a long list when writing $site.AllWebs | % {$_.Lists} | % {$_.ContentTypes} to file. We could then in
that file see the event handler references we want to remove registered to our Content Types, as we did during code debugging earlier on. So PowerShell might still be the way to go here...
So, does anyone know if there is a way to force this delete through, either by code, PowerShell or some other means? Any help regarding this matter would be very much appreciated :)

Hi,
For your information, there's two versions (at least) exists for each content types. One is Site Content Type - exists in Root web and another is list content type. Once you add a content type to a list, a copy of the site content type is taken and stored
in the list. If you update the site content type, it may or may not affect the list conten type. So make sure you are updating the both - site content and list content type. Once you update site content type with passing paramater true to 'ct.Update(true)',
the list content types are supposed to updated too.
