How to set up automatic back up of an internal storage drive?

I am using Time Machine in conjunction with Time Machine Editor to perform scheduled back ups of my boot disk to an internal hard drive. However, I have two additional hard drives in my Mac Pro that I wish to use for (1) media libraries and (2) a back up of those media libraries. Thus far, I have been unable to figure out a way to use Time Machine to designate the second internal drive as a back up device for the first internal drive on which my media libraries are stored. Does anybody have a solution for setting this up using Time Machine or another utility or application?
Thanks in advance.

Time machine can have a substantial blacklist of files NOT to back up, if you prefer.
Some users have separated their Boot Drive, containing only System, Library, Applications, and the hidden unix files including paging/swap onto a separate drive. User files are moved off to a different drive.
In addition to a performance boost, a Boot Drive gives you remarkable flexibility in Backup solutions and upgrades.
For Backups, you can choose to backup the boot drive separately using the same or different methods.
For Upgrades, you can simply substitute a different boot drive whenever you wish, without having to cart all the User files with you and backup and restore them to the main drive. The main Admin account is present immediately. For the User accounts, only one minor change in Accounts is needed once to make them instantly available under a different system.

  • How to set up automatic payment for the purchase order

    Hi, All,
    I have one question how to set up automatically payment for the Rent Office purchase Order?
    There is the requirement from the client. They want to create one kind of purchase order for the Office Rent, then pay the fees in the certain time of every month to the vendor for the rent fees without any invoice. Whatu2019s the normal solution for this kind of purchase order? Is it ERS? Or something else?
    Please give me the details and business flow. Also please tell me how to setup in the SAP and T-code.
    Thanks in advance

    Either you can set up ERS or you can pay directly from the FI side.
    Prerequisites
    Evaluated receipt settlement must be flagged in the purchase order item.
    The vendor must be flagged as being subject to ERS in the vendor master record.
    The goods receipt must refer to a purchase order.
    Goods-receipt-based Invoice Verification must be defined for the purchase order item.
    A tax code must have been maintained in the purchase order item.
    The order price of the materials may not be an estimated price.
    If you flag a vendor as being subject to ERS, the system sets the ERS indicator as a default in each item when you create a purchase order for the vendor. You can prevent this happening for certain vendors by flagging the info record for the material and the vendor as not being subject to ERS.
    In Purchasing, you can delete the default ERS indicator in a purchase order item.
    Choose Logistics Invoice Verification ® Automatic Settlement ® Evaluated Receipt Settlement (ERS).
    The selection screen appears.
    You can use the following criteria to narrow down selection of the transactions to be settled:
    Company code
    Plant
    Goods receipt posting date
    Goods receipt document
    Fiscal year of the goods receipt
    Vendor
    Purchase order and order item
    You can define the selection criteria for the invoice documents by:
    Delivery
    Purchase order
    Purchase order item
    Goods receipt document
    Credit memo
    Invoice
    Currency
    Choose  Execute.
    The system issues a log for Evaluated Receipt Settlement, which displays the following:
    Settled
    In line with your selection criteria, the system displays all the order items that were settled (or if you are working in test mode, which would have been settled).
    Could not be settled
    In line with your selection criteria, the system displays all order items for which ERS is defined but could not be settled. It also lists the reasons.
    If the system reports being unable to invoice a transaction, you should exclude the transaction from ERS to avoid it being included in the log the next time ERS is run.
    Select the item and choose Exclude from ERS.
    The system also generates and possibly sends a message to inform the vendor(s) about the transaction settled, depending on the settings in Customizing.
    You can display the following environment information for the order items selected. To do this, choose Goto ®:
    Display purchase order
    Display invoice
    Display material document
    Display long text

  • How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive

    How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive? I have an iMac with a 320gb internal HD that is full and I am replacing it with a 2tb internal drive. I have several external drives; 1 tb, 2tb and 3 tb. The 2 tb is being used for Time Machine. Do I have to buy an enclosure? If so, where would I get an inexpensive one?
    I also want to partition the new internal drive for Windows, and I'm not sure how much space to use for that. I plan to use Windows to check my work in PowerPoint created on my Mac for clients on PCs.

    Do you already have Time Machine making backups onto the 2TB drive? If so, after you get the internal drive replaced, boot up into the recovery partition (hold down ⌘R) and restore the latest Time Machine backup that you have onto the new internal drive.
    I recommend always having two backups. I'd use SuperDuper to make a complete clone of your internal drive onto an external drive in addition to having the Time Machine backup.
    Boot Camp is what is used to make partitions for Windows. How much space to allocate depends on how much space you expect Windows to use up based on how you plan to use it.

  • How to set up automatic cache purge

    I am using the event polling table for setting up automatic cache purging.
    I have created a table 'event polling table' in the database with the following fields:
    CATALOGNAME
    DATABASENAME
    OTHER
    SCHEMANAME
    TABLENAME
    UPDATETIME
    UPDATETYPE
    LOAD_ID
    with TABLENAME, UPDATETIME, UPDATETYPE as non-nullable fields.
    Then I have imported the table to the physical layer of the rpd, set up 'Oracle BI Event tables' in the Utilities as this table and set up a polling frequency of 15min.
    I have created a report with 2 columns (DeptID, Saleamt) from 2 tables (Department, Sales) respectively. Both these tables were made 'cacheable' in the physical layer with cache never expires. Now the saved report is ran by logging in once again. So a cache entry is registered. My NQSCONFIG file enables cache.
    I have added these 2 tables to the event polling table after the cache entry was registered. Technically after 15min, this cache should be purged automatically as the request created was from these 2 tables. But that does not happen. Even after half hr when I log in and run this report a cachehit occurs as cache still persists. My cache folder is the C:\OracleBIData\cache. I also check entries in the Repository (Manage ->cache).
    Please let me know where am I making a mistake.
    My goal is to get cache purged automatically every time there's an entry in the EPT. (To test when I create an entry in the EPT, I give the tablename and updatetype (=1), the updatetime is obtained automatically as sysdate.
    Thanks
    ===================================================
    For reference I have copied an earlier posting here:
    ===================================================
    lets look at all your questions one by one
    As the event polling table gets a row added for each table whose data is updated at the end of each ETL run, when exactly does the BI server purges cache related to that table - As soon as the polling happens and it finds a new record in your table
    Lets say I set up a polling frequency (in Tools -> Utilities -> Oracle BI Event Tables) to every 60 minutes. At the end of every 60 minutes does the BI server restart by itself or does the polling take place without restart. - Polling takes place only when the server is up (there is no need to restart)
    At the end of every 60 minutes does the BI server poll the event polling table whether or not any new rows are added to it? -(Yes )
    What exactly happens when a new record is added to the event polling table in the database. - (The cache is purged )
    If at the end of the ETL run data in 3 tables has changed, would 3 records be added to the event polling table in the database. - (yes , after the polling happens)
    Let me know if you have more questions ...
    Another way you can set it up is to create a batch file which would purge a table as its updated (use a procedure to capture the tables which have a value of 1 for update_type or use triggers to populate a table with these table names ) ...once purged you can set up your cache by using ibots (use javascripts) .
    =============================================================================

    I seem to have all the steps running except #3 - which is clearing the cache!

  • Labview Instrument​: how to set some parameters back to default after restarting the simulation (in Multisim)?

    Hi everyone,
    I wrote a Labview Instrument VI that I use later in my simulation in Multisim. The problem is, after stopping the simulation and restarting it again, some important parameters of the VI are not initialized again and therefore all my calculations in the Labview Instrument file are messed up.
    Is there any option to set the params back to their default values after the simulation has been restarted?
    Has that something to do with Serialize/Deserialize Data in the VI?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Setting up a VPN server on second internal hard drive

    Forgive me if my jargon is off ... this is my first attempt at setting up a VPN.
    GOAL: My company needs various employees to access our server from remote locations.
    My personal computer is a Power Mac G5 Quad. Today I purchased a 500gb internal hard drive to serve as the company's "server".
    I want to set things up so that employees can access this drive from anywhere on the internet.
    I've read numerous documents on how clients connect to the server, but I haven't found anything on actually setting up a server so that others can connect to it.
    Just to finally hash out my attempts at solving this ... I installed Chicken of the VNC and set that up on various employees' laptops. However, this VNC just lets them "control" my computer. I want them to be able to access one particular drive and share files there.
    Any help, points in the right direction, advice, would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks so much.

    Try selecting a different ip address range for the VN. 192.168.0.x is a default for a lot of gear and I read that it could cause problems in one of the Leopard setup docs. try something like 192.168.x.y where x is more than 0 or 10.x.y.z again where x is More than 0
    It really is worth downloading all the docs from the apple site and burning them to CD

  • How can I browse T.M. backups made BEFORE internal hard drive upgrade?

    Hi, all. I have googled and googled with no info on my particular situation. Maybe one of you can help. Here's hoping...
    I have a MacBook Pro and use Time Machine to back up to a Firewire hard drive. I do not back up my System and Applications, just files. Consequently, when I recently upgraded my internal hard drive I restored all my data and settings from the original internal hard drive (not the Time Machine).
    From there Time Machine began making NEW backups of the NEW hard drive, no problem, but I cannot browse the backups of the previous internal hard drive. Is there any way I can get Time Machine to recognize all of these backups as existing from the same machine and let me browse back beyond the internal hard drive upgrade?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    I think you have to browse them separately, but you should be able to do so by right-clicking (control+click) on the Time Machine icon in the dock or by holding the option key when clicking the icon in the menu bar.
    Choose "Browse other Time Machine Disks" and you should see the old series of backups.

  • How do I transfer my iTunes music from one internal hard drive to another internal hard drive without having to locate every song?

    So I have two internal hard drives in my laptop but the hard drive that my music is on is running out of space. I want to transfer my music from the smaller hard drive to the larger hard drive so my computer can run faster. If I do this I'm afraid I'm going to have to locate every song within the iTunes library. Is there a way around it so I won't have to go in my files and locate every song? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Instead of moving the entire iTunes folder you can copy it, then do the Shift-launch trick to select the .itl file from its new location.  If it works, then go back and delete the original location.
    But maybe clarify your configuration ... specifically, is your "iTunes Library.itl" file currently on the same drive that your music files are stored on?  Or, do you keep your .itl file on a separate drive than the native files?  If the .itl file is on a separate drive right now, then moving or copying the music files over to be on the same drive can result in iTunes not knowing where your native files went.  You can get around that using the Consolidate utility in iTunes, but that is not necessary if the .itl file lives with the music files.
