How to move a backup and still use it?
Hello everybody
Mi problem is this one:
Oracle 9i (9.2.0.8) Standard on Solaris 9.
Daily automated RMAN Full Backup (no incremental available since is standard) to disk.
I do not have enough space on disk to keep more than 1 backup ( and I need at least 3 of them: today, yesterday and last week (sundays) ) on the same disk, so my backup script does the following:
1) Deletes (o.s. command) yesterday backup from "/backups".
2) Runs full backup script (create backup on "/backups").
3) Copy (o.s. command) the backup to "/oldbackup" which is a NFS mounted disk with enough available space.
4) Deletes (o.s command) the older backups except today, yesterday and last sunday one).
5) Runs a DELETE OBSOLETE to keep the catalog more or less up to date (I have a retention policy of redundancy = 8, so it deletes from the catalog copies older than 8 days).
The problem is, if I need to restore something from a backup prior to today's, I have to move it first from "/oldbackup" to "/backup" (and in order to do it, I must first delete today's backup :-( )
I would like to know if there is any way to tell RMAN that yestarday backup is not anymore in '/backup' but in "/oldbackup".
Any other aproach (other than buying more disk, it is not available right now) would be very apreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Lisandro.

Thanks for your help !!! the idea of duplex the backup set may be the best one.
Although the backup may take a little longer (since it has to write to the mounted NFS directiry), it is run during the night, when activity is minimal.
I've already though making a BACKUP BACKUPSET, but that would need to make space available before restoring the "backupset" backup, so it does not fix completely the problem.
The symbolic link is also a good idea, but needs more admin at O.S level.
I'll go with the duplex backup and tell you how it's working.
If anyone else thinks of another way, I'll be glad of hearing about.
Thanks again ;-)

Can I airplay a movie from safari on my MacBook to Apple TV and still use the computer for something else at the same time?
Hi frogjt,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
Great question! You can absolutely do this in OS X 10.9. The attached article explains how the process of using AirPlay with Apple TV to create a second display. Also, towards the bottom of the article there are instructions on how to set your Displays preferences on the computer to make sure the TV and MacBook Pro displays are set up the way you want them to be.

Hi, I activated my CS6 in 2012 under my student licence and still using it. I've heard that you can't run CS6 on multiple computers. How do I transfer it from one computer to another as I am switching computers?
Hi,
first, I'm not Adobe's "slave" as you might to accuse me. Most of the posters here are users like me.
I only can repeat that what I found in Adobe's help sites, as I wrote above. You are free to figure out the "real" truth and - the best would be - you may contact Adobe directly, here are - I'm sure you know them - the links I would use: http://helpx.adobe.com/support.html and http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html.

I have a Macbook Pro and an Apple TV. What I'd like to do is stream a movie from my CinemaNow Account to my television by using my Apple TV and my Macbook. I know that I can do this my using the mirroring feature, however then I can no longer use my Macbook for anything else because my TV will only display what is on the screen of my Macbook. Now with this is mind, what then is the point of having multiple displays through the use of my Apple TV, if only one display can be used at a time unless they both show the same image? Or is there a way for me to be able to stream the movie to my TV and still use my Macbook for other purposes (multi-tasking)?
To enable a second display over AirPlay, you first need to be connected to the same network as your Apple TV. Next, open System Preferences > Displays, and select your Apple TV from the “AirPlay Display” drop-down menu.
Once you do this, your display may flash as the second display connection is acquired, and the Apple TV takes over as the second display. If the displays are mirrored, then you can correct this by opening the “Arrangement” tab in System Preferences > Displays, and ensuring that the “Mirror Displays” checkbox is unchecked.
In this same “Arrangement” tab, you can move the displays around in the pane to ensure that they're positioned correctly, relative to your physical space (usually side-by-side, or top-down). The primary display here is denoted here by the Menu bar on the display. The arrangement helps with being able to drag windows from one display to the next: if your secondary display is arranged to be to the right of your primary one, for example, you can drag things to it through the right side of your primarcy screen. -
I'm interested in Apple TV for the mirroring feature through AirPlay, but will only purchase if I can still use my mac as normal whilst i'm watching what is being mirrored on the tv. Is this possible in any way? like possibly having the movie playing on desktop 2 and mirroring that and still use the mac with the other desktops to browse the internet etc?
No, AirParrot isn't a solution for dexta,
AirParrot gives mirroring function to older computer that are unsupported by the Apple's mirrorring function. Dexta is looking to extend is display which isn't a feature of AirParrot.
AppleTV will only gives you direct access to some web content using the builtin features like YouTube, Netflix, etc. If you are looking for unsupported access to other website without using mirroring, then the AppleTV isn't the best hardware to answer your need. -
How are Windows Server Backup and Command Line Tools used in vCSHB installation?
How are Windows Server Backup and Command Line Tools used during the installation of vCSHB? Is it required in all types of deployments (PtoV, VtoV, PtoP)? Is it used to create the files that are put in the file share for the second node to use during vCSHB installation or is it only used during a vCSHB clone operation of a Physical to Physical deployment? Are these tools not used in some deployments?
You need Windows Server Backup installed on source and destination, and during the installation of vCSHB the installer will invoke the wbadmin (Windows Server Backup Utility) and will backup configuration and application data (application data is optimal but can decrease the sync time after installation of secondary node). On the secondary node you will need only run the vCSHB installer and everything will be restored.

I have a G5 PPC Dual 20" Mac Displays - I want to incorporate a Mac Mini and still use my keyboard and Monitors and Switch back and forth. How do I do this?
The Hatter,
I am a novice at Mac so I read all I can. From what I understand the NEC monitors I bought require Display Port for their maximum performance. The GTX 680 only has DVI outputs. Difference from what I understand is larger bandwidth with the DP.
You said I have the 4000 for CUDA. I am not all that familiar with CUDA and when I do read about it I do not understand it.
A concern I have is, that if I connect the 2 high end NEC monitors via the 5770, using it's 2 Display Ports I would have nothing connected to the 4000. Is the 4000 doing anything with nothing connected? I read where in a PC system the 2 cards would interact but in a Mac system they do not.
Bottom line, as I see it, the 4000 will not be useful at all to me, since I want a dual monitor set-up.
So far the 5870 seems the best choice, higher band width than the 5770, and it has 2 Display Ports to optimize the NEC monitors.
I'm not sure how fine I am splitting hairs, nor do I know how important those hairs are. I am just trying to set up a really fast reliable system that will mainly be used for CS6 and LR4. Those NEC monitors are supposed to be top notch. -

Can I back up the organizer, move my photos and still access them in PSE?
I backed up my catalog to an external HD last night and there were about 20 disconnected files. I was not able to locate them so I allowed the back up to continue without them. Do you know what the consequences are for that?
Also, several of my photos are on my C drive and several are on the external HD. My catalog included photos from both places. When I move the rest of my photos from the C drive of my computer to the external HD will the catalog still be able to access them or will I need to back everything up again?
My goal is to free up space on my computer so PSE will stop freezing up. All I'm intersted in doing right now is getting all of my photos into the organizer and tagged. I'll edit them later as I begin to create digital scrapbook pages.
Can someone tell me if the way I'm going about this is correct?
Thank you,Thank you Ken. I backed up everything to my external HD, but now I think I'd rather just move everything there and recall my photos from the ext HD to free up space on my C drive. Is that possible?

When you use PSE to back up your catalog, the actual photos as well as the catalog (database) are backed up. When you restore from a backup, you can specify where the incoming photos will be placed. Ken

Can I keep photos on external hard drive and still use iPhoto?
I have virtually no space left on my eMac's 80GB hard drive. For a long time, I have kept my sizable iTunes library on an external hard drive connected to the eMac. It takes a bit of extra time to open up the iTunes library and to upload music from newly purchased CDs, but generally the external hard drive and eMac perform well together. My question is: Can I do the same with my photos (put them on the external hard drive) and still use iPhoto to access them and edit them? I have checked some of the Apple knowledge base documents, and there seem to be warnings against this. I am currently using iPhoto 6.0.6. I have purchased iPhoto 7.0 (with iLife '08) but haven't put the new software on the computer because there is not enough space. I would like to straighten out this space problem and get the benefits of the new software. (I have backed up quite a few of the photos onto CDs, but I like to have them handy--therefore on the eMac or on a hard drive connected to the eMac.) Thanks ahead to anyone with some good ideas on this topic.

Yes it is, but you cannot access the at the same time as iPhoto can only open one library at a time.
So, a solution might be to have the entire library on the external, and to carry the smaller subset on the laptop.
To do this, follow the instructions above to move the library, but instead of deleting the library on the laptop (in the final step), put the pics from the earlier years into the iPhoto trash and empty it. (iPhoto Menu -> Empty Trash. Hint: Don't so them all at one go! Better a few a a time.)
Now you have the full library on the external (and if you want to access the full library, use that) and the 07 & 08 years on your laptop.
To switch between libraries, simply hold down the option (or alt) key when launching.
As you add photos to the Library you can use iPhoto Library Manager to move pics and albums /events between libraries, and so keep them up-to-date with each other.
Please note this is the only way to sync the libraries, there is no app that can do this automatically.

Can I have a custom RTP payload, and still use a MediaLocator?
Hi,
I think I am a little confused. Can I have a custom RTP payload, and still use Manager.createPlayer(MediaLocator locator) to create my player?
This doesn't seem possible because the RTPManger's addPayload(Format format, int payloadType) method isn't static, forcing me to always create my RTPManager first.
Is this a valid observation, or am I missing something?
Your comments are highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
ErwinThanks for your prompt reply.
The short answer is yes.
The MediaLocator is used to identify the source, or destination for a media stream. For example this could be a file (file://c:\mydisk\audio.wav) or a URL (http://mydomain/music/audio.wav)
Ok, I get that, but the MediaLocator is also used to identify the protocol, rtp in this case, and the protocol in its turn is used by the framework to locate the DataSource. I am not suggesting what you write is incorrect, I am only trying to understand how this works the way it does.
RTP is used to transport streaming media in real time over a network (usually UDP).And that is exactly what I need it for.
The receiver of an RTP stream is an RTP receiver. Players take the datasource(created from the MediaLocator) and feed the data to the RTP manager so it can be streamed across the network or vice versa.
The vice versa part is what I am interested in. I need to handle a proprietary video format, packed as RTP, and shipped over UDP. My initial approach was to simply register my DePacketizer with the PlugInManager, and add my custom payload type to the RTPHandler (addFormat(Format fmt, int type)). That obviously doesn't work.
So what I'm trying to convey is that the MediaLocator used in creating a Player will be different, and is used for a different purpose, than the Internet address, and Port used to create an RTPManager.I need a good night of sleep to think that over. I.m.h.o. there is no reason to handle "http://host:port/video/whatever.ext" different from "rtp://host:port/video/whatever.ext". The only difference is that in the first case I can build my graph based on the extension of whatever, and in the second case I have to wait for my first packet in order to determine the payload type. In both cases I expect "DataSource ds = Manager.createDataSource(ml) to work (and it probably does for the standard payload types).
The JMF framework has a .../media/protocol/rtp/DataSource class as well as a .../media/protocol/http/DataSource class.
Is this making any sense?Not sure yet, but I certainly appreciate your help.
Note: In general you don't need to create a custom Payload for RTP.
What if I want to ship a proprietary video format?
Thanks a lot,
Erwin -
