Import 10g r2 - overwrite question..

i have looked everywhere for an answer but cannot find one..
Ok i am migrating a 9i to 10g r2 -using export/import - which has worked for me. i have already done this process as a test once. So i now have a 'test live' on 10g with everything setup exactley as i want it - backups, batch jobs, system params etc.
I am migrating the 9i database over for real, and i just need to know whether the import process once i select the 'overwrite existing files' (i believe is the destroy=y command also) will basically truncate any tables that need to be -then import objects and data - leaving me with a live system a replica of the 9i in relation to code and data...
Is this assumption correct? or do i have to wipe the 10g database completely before i start the import?

Need Help with FCP7 import and plug in question.

Hello,
I just registered and would like to ask two questions. Everything else I'll use the search function for but I need the answer right away.
Ok First question. I have a mac pro at home and a intel macbook both with FCS4 during the holiday season I'd like to work on a project on my laptop. Now I have all my files on a 2.0 USB drive(I know its not that fast for video) but this is only temp. while traveling. I'm trying to figure out why it wont import the files into another project. Even when I'm at my home Mac Pro when I try to import a projects footage into another project it doesn't read it. This comes up
"File Error: 0 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied 254 unknown"
But all the files will work in the project that it was originally captured too.
If this helps the codec is sonys HDV 1080 60i converted to Apple ProRes 422(HQ) which I found out I should only use the regular Apple ProRes 422. I'm stuck now b/c I cannot import the files into a new project to work in on my laptop. Plus my Macbook doesn't have Firewire800 so I have no way to get the footage from tape to my laptop other then my USB Hard Drive.
I also have problem importing the files in Motion and Cinema Tools they also are not recognizing the files which is getting me upset since they are FCP7 generated files after I convert them to ProRes.
Whenever I try to import/use the files in anything other the original project they are grey'ed out.
I'm also confused on how to import effects plug-ins I've downloaded effects from apple only to have now directions to import them into the program.
Sorry for the Noob questions I'm a film student learning FCP7 by myself so I have the upper hand come next semester. Thanks in advance.

Can't tell for sure but it sounds as if the drive is not properly formatted, or you do not have correct read/write permissions for it. There is no way you can use this drive with HQ video. You're going to get into problem if you even try.

Importing 10g mapping in 9i

Hi all,
I want to know whether it is possible to import a 10g mapping into a 9i environment?
Regards
Bharath

what is owb version and does that support 9i, if it does then you can else not and if you have used some components of 10g which were not available or worked differently in 9i then the mapping will fail during import

Import u2013 MDIS handling Question

This is for auto import and I have two fields and both are lookup fields.
FIELD A - Lookup field
FIELD B - Lookup field
Requirements
FIELD A, I have a new lookup field value in the import file and I want to add this new field value to the lookup table then map and import the file.
FIELD B, I have a new lookup field value in the import file but I want to set this as ERROR and donu2019t import this record.
How do we handle these two fields differently?
The Import manager configuration section of the default MDIS handling, unmapped value handling, I have IGNORE, ADD & FAIL. I can select one of the option and continue.
But how to handle this based on individual fields has individual requirements?
My another question is:-
My import file has 100 records. Import Manager configuration option, Default MDIS handling -> Unmapped value handling = Fail.
Out of the 100 records, only one record has the error so that record will not be loaded and remaining 99 records will be loaded.
But the exception folder, the file has all the records (100 records) if I am not mistaken. So it is pretty difficult to identify which record has error. Again if the input file has more records then it is more difficult.
Is there a way we can identify only records that are in error instead of looking the whole file in the exception folder?

Hi,
The Import manager configuration section of the default MDIS handling, unmapped value handling which you set, by default is applicable to all of the look up fields.
But if you want to handle it individually for two fields, you can.
In Map Fields/Values Tab Say Source Field A map with Target Destination field TrgA, Right click on TrgA Set Unmapped Value handling as Add.
IIy, you can set for Field B as per your requirement as Add, Ignore, Fail etc. As i see select here Fail.
For Second Question you asked,
Is there a way we can identify only records that are in error instead of looking the whole file in the exception folder
Whenever you get file into exception folder, Go to Import Manager, Select Type as Port, Remote system as per your requirement, Port as Filename(Exception) select and Finish it. Once your Import Manager opens, Go to Import Status Tab check Action Items for take the desired action to import that file. In this way you will come to know what are the fields and values which need to be mapped. Once it maps you can import this file in one shot and data will be populated into MDM.
Thanks and Regards,

Updating iPod Overwrite Question

It seems that when I can update "Pamela's iPod",with something new, it writes over what's already on the iPod, so I have to update everything from the beginning. Shouldn't you be able to update the iPod without erasing what's already there?
Also, is there a device that will play both .aa and mp3 files that is manufactured for Windows? I like the concept of the iPod, but it really is lousy to get it to work.
One more question. Do I really need Microsoft's Service 2 pack update?
Thanks!

007: Thanks for replying. I'm having all sorts of problems getting music copied to Pamela's iPod. Audible books works just fine. The problem I spoke about above is that I can't seem to be able to add, for example, a song to my iPod without adding all the other stuff already on it again. If I don't add my entire Library along with the single song, everything on my iPod is gone except for the newly added song.
Also, some folks have said for me to drag and drop. This doesn't work either. Last night I thought that I copied to my iPod an entire album (I imported from the CD and then clicked from the file drop-down menu, Update) and when I went to play the album this morning, only the first song played.
If you could walk me through this process, I'd sure appreciate it. Love your movies--
Thanks!

Oracle 10g XE // Licensing question

Hi,
as far as i got till ow, the XE seams to be only limited in 3 ways:
- max 4GB user data
- max 1GB RAM actively used
- max 1 Processor used
However, this leads to some questions for me:
1. what is a "processor" defined as ? i this 1 cpu including multi cores or is this just 1 core? (regarding the new Xeons we have e.g. 2 CPUs with 2 Cores each with Hyperthreading makes em 4 Cores on each physical CPU)
2. can multi XE be used for ditributed DB's ?
e.g. we have say 2 servers - 1 at company A (production and research) and 1 at company B (part production needed for comp. A). can they be connected together so that the main-DB is at company A and company B only has a part of the DB at company A? e.g. company A hast say 100 tables in their DB but B has only 15 tables to access and stored local for caching ? - if these distributed scenarios are possbiel, could you please point me to the docs for it?
Best Regards,
Korbinian

. what is a "processor" defined as I believe a dual core processor is counted as two CPU (that's certainly how Oracle calculate th elicencing for regular 10g). In the case of XE I think they've frigged the database so it will only use one CPU no matter how many CPUs the server actually has.
2. can multi XE be used for ditributed DB's ?As far as I'm aware you should be able to do single master replication with XE but not multi-master. But then most sensible people would not want to do multi-master replication anyway. You may find this article by Lewis Cunningham informative. The docs on replication are here.

How import 10g,11g dump file in oracle 9 and oracle 8

Dear all
I import dump file exported from oracle 9 to oracle 10g and 11g now i want exported dump file from oracle 10g/11g to import in oracle 9 (lower version).
How said job will be done.
Thanks

I've already tried your method, but it fails when you import the dmp exported from lower version.
To import Oracle 11g user to Oracle 10g, the following method works fine:
It is assumed that both 11g and 10g servers are on same LAN.
Make sure that 11g sqlplus connects to your 10g server.
Step 1. Export the 11g user from 11g machine.
Step 2.Import the dmp file created in step 1 into 10g server from 11g machine itself.
The 11g exp/import utility should be used for both export and import operations.
Only source and destination servers will be different.

Export-Import and Naming convention question

All,
Newbie here. Have a question related to the naming convention for SAP R/3 system and XI manual export/import process. We are currently in the development environment where our R/3 systems are named as D55CLNT400, D56CLNT300 etc (first 3 characters are the system id, and last 3 are the client number.) This is per the XI best practices convention.
The question i have is - if we name the technical system as above - and export the configuration objects from the Dev to Test environment - where the R/3 systems are named as T55CLNT400, T56CLNT300 (similar naming structure). Does it mean that we need to manually change almost all of the items in the Test environment on the configuration side (like business sytem name, interface determination, receiver determination etc)
Is this the correct way or are we missing something??? I would have preferred a way - where we needed to only update the communication channel parameters.
Thanks.

In the SLD, create three Business System Groups: DEV, QAS and PRD.
In each of these groups, you must have the relevant application servers (in your case, R/3s) and one integration server (XI).
Then, for each Business System in Group DEV, define a transport target in QAS group.
In your case, the transport landscape should be like this:
D55CLNT400 -> T55CLNT400
D56CLNT300 -> T56CLNT300
XI_DEV -> XI_QAS
Do the same for the QAS group (defining transport targets in PRD group). Observe that you need to have the same number of Business Systems in each group for this to work properly.
Now, when you transport your configuration objects from XI_DEV to XI_QAS, all the Business Systems in DEV landscape will be replaced for the equivalent ones in QAS landscape.

Content Services 10g Versioning - more questions

Can anyone clarify the following?
1) While a link can point to a specific version of a file or the latest version of a file... can it point to the latest RELEASED version of a file as well?
Example: Latest Version ( work in progress, not approved yet ) needs to be visible to engineers working on the project, Config Management Team, Customers/Suppliers for review, etc. I might create a folder with links back to the latest version of all files related.
Latest Released Version needs to be visible to Shop Floor Users which refer to the documents on how they should manufacture a part. A Supplier might have a folder to links to the latest RELEASED version of the all files they work with.
2) Since everything is an Item, can items such as folders themselves be versioned? Or just real files?
Example: 12 documents comprise a Customer Evaluation packet. These are all in a folder. The Packet has a Revision of "2". Now we change one of the documents in the packet, and add a new document to the packet. The Packet now has a Revision of "3".
Traditionally I've seen this done by "zipping" the files together into one big file, and checking that in/out. But that's very clumsy because the packet may be 150 MB in size... and if all one wants to do is a file 50K file to the packet, doing that across the Web cross country can be fairly painful. Or are ZIP'd files directly exposable in the interface in a way that versioning can still be accomplished without copying the whole 150MB back and forth, to change one item in the zip file?
thanks for any insight y'all have on these questions...
Karl

Hi Karl,
1) You cannot do this with Links. You could however do it with a category e.g. 'Technical Spec' that has a status attribute. The default of the attribute would be 'DRAFT', but before checking in the RELEASED version you change the status attribute to 'RELEASED'. Any user can get the list of 'RELEASED' documents that are available to them with a simple search.
2) Content Services 10g doesn't support versioning of folders.
hope that helps,

Importing 10g dump into 9i

Dear All,
My Prod server is 10gR2 , now our client wants the same database to be imported into 9i database. Is it possible using normal Export and Import utility.
Any suggestions
Regards

well the answer is "not really"...quoting from Tom Kyte's Expert Oracle Architecture
DMP files are designed to be backward-compatible, meaning that newer releases can read older releases' DMP files and process them successfully. I have heard of people exporting a version 5 database and successfully importing it into Oracle 10g (just as a test!). So Import can read older version DMP files and process the data therein. The converse, however, is most definitely not true: the Import process that comes with Oracle9i Release 1 cannot—will not—successfully read a DMP file created by Oracle9i Release 2 or Oracle 10g Release 1. For example, I exported a simple table from both Oracle 10g Release 1 and Oracle9i Release 2. Upon trying to use these DMP files in Oracle9i Release 1, I soon discovered Oracle9i Release 1 import will not even attempt to process the Oracle 10g Release 1 DMP file:

Import 10g to 9i

I have an Oracle 10g dump file which I need to import to Oracle 9i. When I try to import I am getting the error message stating "IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification." Please tell me how to overcome this problem and import the data into Oracle 9i.

If you have access to Metalink, there is a very useful article that explains the compatibility of export/import between different versions (Doc ID #132904.1)

Import 10g export9i

can i import .dmp file in oracle 10g where export taken from from oracle 9i

Yes.
But you should make sure to use the same version of
the import and export tool.
Either exp9i+imp9i or exp10g+imp10g.This is not required. You only need to make sure export using lower version exp utility. and import using same version as target DB.
10g exp will not work with 9i DB.

Trying to export/import 10g 10.2.0.3 data into an 8i (8.1.7.0) database

I am trying to create an full export of a 10g database 10.2.0.3 and then import into an Oracle 8.1.7.0 database. I was told to use the 8i version of both the exp and imp utilities. I keep getting nls_character set errors. The 10G database is AMERICAN-AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252 where the 8i database is WE8ISO8859P1. I was told to set the registry entry for NLS_LANG to that of the setting in 8i but I am still getting errors when I run the 8i export logged into the 10g database. What initialization parameters on the 10g and/or 8i database and within the windows environment variables/registries need to be set in order to pull this off?
Can this be done? Can I use the 10g imp ultility and use the .dmp file that to imp into the 8.1.7.0 database? We are doing this in case management wants to revert back to 8i in there is a showstopper issue when we go production on 10g.

8.1.7.0 database. I was told to use the 8i version of
both the exp and imp utilities. I keep getting
nls_character set errors. ...and the errors are?
The 10G database is
AMERICAN-AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252 where the 8i database
is WE8ISO8859P1. I was told to set the registry entrySo you are going to a superset, which is good, if your character data were stored properly in 8i.
You might want to run the db character set scanner against 8i to find possible conversion issues. Running csscan from 10g home against the 8i db should work.

Portal Import/Export problems and questions

I recently tried to promote our dev stuff to the prod using both the exp/imp scripts (following the Imp/Exp whitepaper) and the built-in application export. The first time went without a hitch; however, after a few report updates in dev, I tried it again, and now I can't even get the Welcome page to appear. (Yes, I did import that page). The page finishes loading but nothing shows up on screen. I can login in to the change the DADs but nill to Portal. Any ideas how to even get in to see if the stuff imported?
Along those lines, after searching through these threads, and reading the documentation, I get the general feel that imp/exp are not at 100%. So what would be the procedure to do production promotions? Do I have to delete stuff (apps & pages) on the PROD server, and then import? If so what (apps?, security?, login server?) do I delete?
Rich

Thanks for the post Indira. Here are the answers to the questions.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>What version of the Oracle Portal are you using?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I am using Oracle Portal version 3.0.6.3.3
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Did you make any changes to the Welcome page when you imported it?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
No, I did not make any changes to the Welcome page when I imported it.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>When you say that the page comes up blank, did you check the HTML source to see if there is anything in there?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Yes, and there is something in there. Its the W3C tag and <HTML></HTML>. That's it. (more on this below)
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>What kind of portlets are in the page that you had imported?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I imported one application (with a combination of Reports, Forms, Dyn Pages, and LOV's), 7 pages with portlets based on all those components in tabbed interfaces on each page. For example, each page has 4 tabs with one portlet (running one of the reports) on each tab.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Are you able to get to the pages that you imported, through the Navigator. Can you edit/customize the page?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Well this is funny, since I couldn't get to anything, I thought I was a goner since I couldn't log in to get to the main page and fix all this, not to mention to see if the app imported at all. So, I went to my DEV box, found out what the page_id was for the out-of-the-box default page, typed it into the URL and I got the Login link. I logged in and I can see that the app imported. I can also see the pages, but with no portlets. When I try to add portlets, I get USER DEFINED ERRORS galore. So I have to recreate the pages from scratch (not a very good thing to be doing in PROD)
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Try creating another page in your new prod instance and making that your default home page. Please can you check if that is working.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
As I mentioned above, this is basically what I had to do. I did another promotion last night, and since the pages are what I thought the trouble was, I didn't import them. I just imported sso, sec, and the app. To my dismay, the same thing happened. I call portal home and I get a blank screen (empty HTML tags). So there I was, well into the night, creating pages in PROD so that we could have a site to show today.
Since someone else gave me the CD to install, I wasn't aware of the version I had and its bugs/issues. I have started the process of upgrading versions, but would like to get a solid idea of whats going with promotions before I do.
Thanks,
Rich

Only importing 3 of 20 questions in the GIFT file

I followed Vish's instructions carefully on how to import the GIFT files into adobe captivate 7. I used a txt format. There are 20 questions, but it keeps stopping the import after question 3 and putting in a result side. I cannot see a syntax error in my document. What could possibly cause this problem? I spent so much time on formatting 300 questions and answer sets.

Hi there, I see that the problem was that the txt file had to be encoded as a UTF-8 format. Thank you
