How to take remote disk backup on AIX

Dear All,
I want to take a disk backup of our Development system. I will take the backup on an USB external HDD
which is connected to a Windows XP system. Both the Windows XP and DEV system are on same local network. The external HDD has NTFS file system and has been shared. The server is on AIX 5.3 with oracle 10.2.0.1 with SAP ECC 6.0. Since I am new to AIX Operating System and have little knowledge about AIX, I am unable to access the shared disk in my AIX box. Once I will able to access the shared disk in the AIX system i.e. in the Development server and then only I can configure the corresponding file at SAP level and could take the backup. Please help me how to access the corresponding shared disk from AIX and what configuration I have to do at SAP level for taking disk backup.
Regards
Samir

Low Network Utilization in Remote Disk Backup via SAP FTP

Hi gurus,
I'm running whole online backup + redo log to backup my SAP server to backup server via SAPFTP (remote disk backup).
I'm using 100Mbps network connection between the two servers, with SAP server configured to 'maximize data throughput for network application'.
When I copy data from SAP Server to backup server manually, the speed is OK (around 98% network utilization).
But when I use put command in program RSFTP002 (SAPFTP) for the same file, the network utilization is just around 10%.
I use Windows Server 2003 x64 for SAP Server, and Windows Server 2008 x64 for Backup Server.
Each has adequate RAM, 8GB for SAP Server and 4GB for Backup Server.
Is this technical problem or is it because backup is considered background process, thus lowering its speed?
Help will be very much appreciated.

go read http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/0d/d311324a0c11d182b80000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
it's old but should help you nonetheless.
I would not use SAPFTP as you found out, it is slow.
use DD instead which is much faster.

Remote Disk Backup

Hi gurus,
I want to ask some questions again..
I want to backup my SAP database to remote disk.
My server is using:
OS : Windows Server 2003 Enterprise 64bit
DB : Oracle 10.2.0.4
As i've read here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmobile71/helpdata/en/47/0b9ed8434f57dde10000000a1553f7/content.htm
my only option for windows user is use backup_dev_type = ftp right?
so I have configured all things according to what's in the article above.
i've mapped the disk storage location into drive z: in my SAP Server.
When i execute backup, SAP returns error saying that z: is unknown location.
I use windows ftp server which is in IIS component.
When i see the picture from that article above, it uses SAPFTP.
Do I must use SAPFTP to backup to remote disk?
If so, how could I configure it?
I have tried to open SAPFTP in 'TCP/IP Connections' via tcode 'SM59' and 'Test Connection', which returned something like:
Logon:                    569 msec
0 KB:                    1 msec
10 KB:                    4 msec
20 KB:                    5 msec
30 KB:                    7 msec
Any help for me?
Thanks very much.

gurus,
i've changed stage_root dir to ftp://folder, and now it's seems more convincing, but another error displayed:

How to take a Hot backup of Oracle database

1: put the db in archive log mode
2: set the db_sid to correct one
3: login to sqlplus
4: verify the name of the db that you are connected to
select name from v$database;
5: check if the db is in archive log made
select log_mode from v$database;
if not in archive log mode
another command to check
archive log list;
6: find where on disk oracle writes archive log when it is in archive log mode
sql> show parameter log_archive_dest_1;
if the value is found to be 0, that means no values will be recorded, so we need to change it
sql> alter system set log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=c:\database\oradata\finance\archived_logs\'
scope=spfile;
7: shutdown immediate; < this is done just to prepare the db for hot backups >
8: startup the db in mount mode
startup mount;
( 3 startup types : nomount - just starts the instance, mount - locates the control files and open up according to the values, open - finds the datafiles from the control files and opens up the db )
9: put the db in archive log mode
alter database archivelog;
10: open the database
alter database open;
11: check the status of the db
select log_mode from v$database;
SQL> archive log list;
12: create a directory for archived log
check if its empty, if empty we need to switch
sql> alter system archive log current;
run it 5 times < need to put / and enter > , then check the archive log dir , we will find files
13: make a table in the database and insert data in it
create table employees (fname varchar(2));
check the table
desc employees;
insert values
insert into employees values ('Mica');
14: tablespace must be in hot backup mode
check the status
select * from v$backup;
if found not active, then we need to change
we cannot put the db in hot backup mode, unless it is archive log mode
change to hot backup mode
alter database begin backup;
check the status
select * from v$backup;
15: now we can only COPY DBF FILES
copy *dbf <distination location>
16: need to take the db out to hot backup mode
alter database end backup;
17: need to make another archive log switch
alter system archive log current;
18: need to copy control files now, need to do a binary bckup
alter database backup controlfile to '<location>\controlbackup';
19: insert more values to the table
insert into employess values ('NASH')
COMMIT;
make another archive log switch : alter system archive log current;
do the same process for more values
20 : backup all the archive logs to a new location
21: shutdown the db and simulate a hw error, delete all the files from the database folder
22: try to start the sqlplus and db ::: error
23: copy all the backups to the db dir
need to copy the control files, rename the binary backup of the control file and make the copies as needed
24: try to mount the db, error < must use reset logs or noreset logs >
25: need to do a recovering of the database
shutdown
restore the archive logs
startup mount;
recover database until cancel using backup controlfile;
it will ask for a log file :
yes for recovery
cancel for cancelling recovery
26: check status: open the database in readonly
alter database open read only;
check the tables to see the data
shutdown immediate
shartup mount;
recover again : recover database until cancel using backup controlfile;
if oracle is asking for a log that do nto exist , all we have to do is type cancel
27: open the database
alter database open;
need to do reset logs
alter database open resetlogs;
28: check the db that you are connected, check the tables
thanks and regards

A very long list ... let me make it shorter.
SQL> archive log list;If I see this:
Database log mode No Archive ModeI put the database into archivelog mode and leave it there forever.
If it is in archivelog mode:
RMAN> TARGET SYS/<password>@<service_name> NOCATALOG
RMAN> BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;Though there are a lot of things one could do better such as incrementals with block change tracking, creating an RMAN catalog, etc.

Backup to Remote Disk Array

Hi,
I have a remote disk array of IDE drives (2TB) and want to use RMAN to backup my database to these disks. The question is how can I do this? I though of using NFS or SAMBA but I don't think this is a good idea. Does anyone have any suggestions? A plug in library for rman? I'm using 9i with redhat Linux.
Thanks in advance,
Steve.

nothing is stopping you from using NFS technically speaking, from what i know.
as long as the master server is available during the backup you should not have any issues. the only issue could be the time it takes to backup the data.
in your case you can configure those disk arrays to the database host and create some volumes on these disk arrays and backup your database.
there are no libraries for disks. RMAN installation for that particular version of o/s should take care of it.
you have to configure RMAN for media management software libraries, when you want to back the data to a tape drive.

Hi,
May be just for viewing, try downloading from SE80 transaction from the others option.
Here just try issuing the print, it will generate the spool.
Now using the spool, download to your desktop as required. It will have all the information regarding the attributes, fields, elements everything.
The only issue is, may be you need to take all the screens separately.

How to take the Backup of all XI-Design Objects(Repository, Directroty,SLD)

Deal All,
Actually I am facing problems with XI Server.
we have decided to reinstall the server. So, please tell me how to take the back up for all the scenarios that has been created in that. And also tell me how to take the back up for all the things.
Then how the backups can be used in Newly initialed XI-Sys.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Danab

Hi,
In your IR and ID , you can export the Objects as TPZ files which can be reimported later.
To expoert, select the SWCV in your IR or the Configuartion Scenario in ID and then Tools --> Export and then specify the directoy in your XI server to which export should be done and then export the same.
Now, they will be available as TPZ files. When you need to reimport, tools --> Import and you can import.

How do import from iphoto backup disk

My wife cleaned out her iPhoto library the wrong way. She deleted from the albums and said photos are still in the photo library. I made disk backups from Share/Burn for her current albums. I started a new library but can’t fine how to import them back with the same albums she had them set up as. I can import as Event names only.
Any Idea?

You can do this from within iMovie. In the content library at bottom left of the iMovie window there should be an iPhoto icon. if you click on it you can select the pics you want.

How to take a backup manually in oracle 11g express edition?

how to take a backup manually in oracle 11g express edition? i want to take backup of a database and want to restore later on on a different computer .

Stop database, and copy all files to another machine.That sounds to me to be the closest answer to the question posted. And perhaps the easiest solution.
Install XE on the "another machine", shut it down. Shutdown the source database. Copy the datafiles to the new host. Startup your "new" database, it will be an exact clone of the original.
To find out what files need to be copied, as system (or sysdba) run:
select name from v$datafile;
... file1, file2 ...
show parameter control
... control_files ... file1 ...
alter database backup controlfile to trace [reset logs];
show parameter diag;
... diagnostic_dest ... <drive:>|/diag_pathTo do a proper database clone its better to recreate the controlfile and reset the archive sequence number- leave out the controlfile copy part. In the diag_path location find the trace file under diag/rdbms/$ORACLE_SID/<db_name>/trace it should be the latest ora*.trc file.
The trace file has the commands to recreate the controlfile, which includes the datafiles and putting the tempfile back in place. If the datafiles are in a different location, i.e. in Windows going to a different drive, or you want do put datafiles in a different folder location, the create controlfile statement is the easiest time to get the file directories right.
If you add the "reset logs" qualifier (don't use the brackets!) you'll get just the reset logs version of the create controlfile statement, otherwise you'll get both NORESETLOGS and RESETLOGS versions of a create controlfile statement, run one or the other. Not both. Not the entire trace file, just the create controlfile, alter database open [reset logs], alter tablespace temp add tempfile ... bits. No recovery is needed for a database that is shutdown when datafiles get copied to a new location/host.

How can I remotely take over a PC from my Mac

My father has a new notebook running Vista. I have a new Macbook Pro running Leopard.
He lives 3000 Miles away and regularly calls me for help. Anyone know how I can remotely take over his PC in order to fix problems and help him along.
Thanks

Eric, in reading the posts, it seems you are familiar with Mactopia's RDT. I can connect to my work PC via RDT 1.0.3, but the connection doesn't hold whether I'm directly connected to my router or using Airport. If I bring a work PC laptop home, I can remote connect to my work PC using Microsoft Windows RDT on the laptop with no problems.
Do you know if there is something I need to do via preferences with my VPN and Mactopia RDT on my PowerBook to maintain a good connection to my work PC? I've tried to find support or discussions on this at the Mactopia site (nothing remotely relevant) and I only some meaningful discussion here via your comments to Curious George's questions.
Any hints you could give for a better Mactopia RTC connection to my work PC using my PowerBook is appreciated.
Thanks,
Nancy
