Is Recovery possible after homogeneous copy

Hi all,
my database is oracle 9i
1.I have 20 days old backup.using this backup I created a new system(by homogeneous system copy).Can I recover database using offline redolog files up to today date?
Thanks in advance
Regards
nani

yes it is possible, but you may need to rename your offline redologs so that it contains the SID.
20 days of redologs is a lot. hopefully, you have all offline redologs available and hopefully, you do not have any corrupted files...
it is better to take daily backups.

Restoring clients after homogeneous copy

Hi...
I have a QAS system with three clients (100, 120 and 200).
I have a PRD system with just the client 100.
I was asked to perform an homogeneous copy from PRD to QAS, but to make sure clients 120 and 200 are not destroyed.
My question is:
Would a client export (SCC8) with profile SAP_RECO solve my problem?
I would first export both clients (120 and 200) with SAP_RECO, using the QAS system as the target, perform the copy, and then import the clients again through STMS. Would this work? Or is there any other way of doing this?
thanks
Antonio

Hi Antonio
If your are performing the system copy from PRD to QAS its will be comes only 100 client.
for this kindly follow the steps
1. Before starting the system copy Export the QAS client 120 & 200.
2. Perform the system copy from PRD to QAS, & Post system copy activitys
3. Create the New clients in QAS system
4. Do the Import which you already performed

No recovery possible after red_log 100000 and log_archive_format changing

Hello Together,
on a big production database (> 1TB, SAP-System) we passed the number 100000, so we was costrict to set log_archive_format explizit --> log_archive_format = %t_%s <---
Once a month we refresh a preproduction system (it is a job we know well at it is done sapprox 80 - 100 times, no joke, not only this system, but also other systems ;-)).
This was the first refresh after changing that parameter. Now the Refreshed database
(Original Database SID=PCT , rerfreshed also PCT) we are not able to recover.
It is anyway if I give the right archivelog or a wrong one, every time the same error.
Can sombody hel?
Thanks in advance
If you want to phone me, 0049 7633 160 368 I am still trying

Transports steps after Homogeneous Copy

I'm planning to do a system copy in a few weeks time. I have done dummy runs and all is fine, but i'm unsure about the steps that are required for the transpors after the live copy.
The installation notes are very vague on this front. Is it just a case of running se06, or do I need to set up the transports domain again etc??
Thanks
Ian

You've probably already thought of this, but just as a reminder:
1) you'll have to log onto client 000 and request to be added back to the Transport domain, then activate the request on the Domain Controller (tcode stms)
2)Applied transport request level may be different between your QA & Prod. I usually down load the E070 table of QA before the refresh and compare it to the a download after the restore. Then manually add the transports to bring QA back to the transport level is was before the refresh. (May not be a concern in your landscape)

Problems Delta Extractor after Homogeneous Source System Copy

Hi,
We have R/3 system landscape HUD, HUQ, HUP. And we have BW system landscape BWD and BWP.
We connect BWD to HUQ and BWP to HUP.
We made a homogeneous system copy from HUP to HUQ.
We haven´t made any homogeneous system copy from BWP to BWD.
We have applied the next OSS note after source system copy:
325525 Copying and renaming systems in a BW environment
184322 Procedure after DB copy of BW source system
184754 Procedure after BW database copy.
But we have problems in our BW Development (BWD), and we have the next Dump "MESSAGE_TYPE_X" when we can change any delta infopacket, the next text are from Dump:
"MESSAGE_TYPE_X" C
"SAPLRSS1 " or "LRSS1F11 "
"RSM1_CHECK_FOR_DELTAUPD"
I think that the problem is about inconsistencies between RSSDLINIT/SEL tables in BW side and ROOSPRMSC/F tables in R/3 side.
Please could you tell how can i solve this Dump, because i can restrart and initial and delta packet for different Datasource and i can´t do anything.
Thanks in advanced,

Hi,
We are upgrading our R/3 system from 4.7 to Ecc 6.
While copying database tables we are using Clinet Carrier tool which is considering only clinet dependent tables. Hence we are loosing our BW delta queue entries in RSA7 of ugraded system.
We found ROOSPRMSC and ROOSPRMSF tables and copying these 2 tables may resolve the issue and We copied and delta went fine.But we are not sure of only these are the tables to be considered.
Please let us know what are the relevent tables to be considered to make the Delta to work while copying Data base tables from one system to another.
Thanks in Advance

Recovery still not possible after 6760 attempts due to ORABPEL-11001

Version 10.1.3.1.0
Hi,
We have two BPELs which keep filling up the domain log with the line in the heading:
Recovery still not possible after 6760 attempts due to ORABPEL-11001...
I believe we have fixed any possible input directory issues but the error message continues to be written.
I expect that redeploying (rebooting server?) should end the messages but, either way:
Do you know if there is a setting on either the BPEL development process (jDev) or the SOA server where I can limit the number of attempts?
Thank you,
AG

We are running on Unix.
The BPELs were deployed before the respective in-/output directories had been created. I think this might have caused the initial problem.
Once the directories were created (with full permissions -777), though, the messages continued.
I checked the descriptors on the deployed bpels and they seem to be pointing to the correct absolute path for the input files.
So, ASSUMING that the paths are now correct and permissions are ok:
Is there any way of making the attempts stop (as in "kill -9 annoying_bpel_process" ;) ?, or,
Is there a setting in the server admin side to limit the number of attempts in the future ?, or,
Do we need to redeploy the same Bpel after we created the directories ?
Thank you for your help.

How does recovery work after an online backup

Hello,
While trying to conceptually understand how backup and recovery works, I came accross a question concerning hot (online) backup.
This is a conceptual question (I am trying to understand how things work), it is not a "how should I proceed/ what should I do step by step" question.
As far as I understand, an online backup of a tablespace can be performed by copying the OS files making up a tablespace while the database is up and being used (i.e. transactions are modifying data in the database). Before the copying of the OS files starts, the Oracle RDMS must be notified that an online backup is being taken via "ALTER...BEGIN BACKUP" (such that some additional information is written to the Redo Log, which may be required for subsequent recovery using the online backup). During recovery the Oracle RDBMS uses the copies of the OS files together with the online and archived redo logs in order to reconstruct all committed transactions and it further uses the UNDO tablespace to rollback open (uncommitted) transactions.
Thinking about this, it seems to me, that in order for this to work in all possible scenarios the undo information from the time the backup was taken may be required. Therefore backup of the UNDO tablespace should be taken as well (see the explanation for this assumption below). However browsing the internet (including the Oracle online documentation) I did not find any statements concerning the backup of the UNDO tablespace when an online backup is taken. Moreover I couldn't figure out when exactly such a backup of the UNDO tablespace must be done, to ensure that the database can be recovered in all scenarios.
I believe that undo information from the time the hot backup was taken may be required e.g. in the following scenario:
Assume we are taking a hot backup of a given tablespace, i.e. we are copying all OS files that make up this tablespace, while the database is potentially being used. Let D1 be one of the datafiles in our tablespace and let transaction T1 modify datafile D1. Let transaction T1 further be uncommitted while the copy of datafile D1 is being made and let (at least some of) the changes from T1 be included in the backup copy D1' of D1 (because DBWR has already written the modified blocks at the time they were being copied to the backup). Let transaction T1 be rolled back after the copy is completed. D1' will thus contain modifications from T1, while D1 will not.
Now some time later the datafile D1 is lost. When recovering D1 from the copy D1', the (archived) redo logs will be applied to D1'. Before that, transaction T1 should be rolled back in the copy D1', because modifications from T1 must not appear in the recovered version of the database.
I do however not understand, where the information to rollback transaction T1 exactly comes from. It may still be in the current UNDO tablespace. I do however assume that rollback information is not kept in the UNDO tablespace forever. I see three possible answers to this
(a) There are some requirements which I missed so far to backup the UNDO tablespace whenever a hot backup is made.
(b) Since the Oracle "RDBMS" has to be notified that an online backup is being done, it might store all relevant undo information (e.g. write it to the redo log) when the tablespace is put in backup mode.
(c) There are situations when recovery is not possible due to "missing old UNDO information".
Answer (b) seems the most plausible to me. I did however not find any confirmation of this and if (b) really is the answer, I would be interested to understand what information is stored where by the Oracle RDMBS and how it is used for recovery.
To summarize I have the following questions:
(I) Is there any requirement to backup the UNDO tablespace together with an online backup of a tablespace, and if so, where is this stated in the Oracle documentation?
(II) What mechanisms ensure that uncommitted transactions can be cleared from the online copy of a tablespace (potentially a long time after the copy was taken)?
(III) Do you know any links (Oracle documentation or other online resources) explaining these datails?
Thank you for any hints and answers
kind regards
Martin

Its a highly technical question and I can be completely wrong due to my very less knowledge but I would attempt to answer still. Hope I say something sensible so bear with me.
As far as I understand, an online backup of a tablespace can be performed by copying the OS files making up a tablespace while the database is up and being used (i.e. transactions are modifying data in the database).Correct. But it would depend on the tool you are going to use to do so.Using o/s level commands like CP and all would require you to manually copy the files to the backup location. Using RMAN, it would be lot easier and RMAN would take care of everything.
Before the copying of the OS files starts, the Oracle RDMS must be notified that an online backup is being taken via "ALTER...BEGIN BACKUP" (such that some additional information is written to the Redo Log, which may be required for subsequent recovery using the online backup). Again, this is a requirement only in the case of user-managed backup . In that case, because of the fractured block issue , its important that the corresponding older information/image of the buffer is also copied in the redo stream and that's done when the begin backup command is used. Using RMAN, this is not needed as RMAN can read the consistent image which it would store in the backup piece, exactly in the same way in which select request is fulfilled by oracle for a dirty buffer which is yet to be made consistent.
During recovery the Oracle RDBMS uses the copies of the OS files together with the online and archived redo logs in order to reconstruct all committed transactions and it further uses the UNDO tablespace to rollback open (uncommitted) transactions.Correct!
Thinking about this, it seems to me, that in order for this to work in all possible scenarios the undo information from the time the backup was >taken may be required. Therefore backup of the UNDO tablespace should be taken as well (see the explanation for this assumption below). >However browsing the internet (including the Oracle online documentation) I did not find any statements concerning the backup of the UNDO >tablespace when an online backup is taken. Moreover I couldn't figure out when exactly such a backup of the UNDO tablespace must be done, to >ensure that the database can be recovered in all scenarios.The reason that its not a must to do so is that if the transaction is yet active, there is no way that Oracle would overwrite the Undo information of it, even if you may come after 100 years, it would be there. The Undo segment would mark those blocks as active undo blockswhich contains the information of that transaction whose status within the transacton table of that undo segment is still marked as active. So its there all the time in the undo tablespace. Now, for an instance, let's assume that the undo is not there as well( it would be but let's assume), the changes made to the undo segment's blocks are also recored in the redo as its just a change happening to any other segment like EMP,DEPT except with the difference that its not done by you but by oracle. So using that information, in the future , if there would be a need to replay those changes, necessary information to do so can be brought up from the redo blocks stored in the redo/archive logs. Yes, if there would be pending transactions that would require Undo information to get them rolled back and you have lost Undo tablespace and have no backup of it , you wont be able to bring back the database as it would be inconsistent and oracle would not let you to do it. In that case, you may require to use hacks to get it up and that would be really tricky situation.
(I) Is there any requirement to backup the UNDO tablespace together with an online backup of a tablespace, and if so, where is this stated in the Oracle documentation?As I said above, it must be there if you are anticipating loss of Undo tablespace. If you have lost it, you would need a backup and all the archive logs and redo logs to recover and get it back to the point where the current database is . Rest, oracle would take care as it would reapply the redo contents of the undo segments over the undo segment and get it consitent.
(II) What mechanisms ensure that uncommitted transactions can be cleared from the online copy of a tablespace (potentially a long time after the copy was taken)?As I said , pending transaction's undo is never overwritten by Oracle. Its always kept and marked as active undo . Only a transaction end would make it elgible to get overwritten and that too won't happen immediately(undo_retention would kick in) .
(III) Do you know any links (Oracle documentation or other online resources) explaining these datails?I have to see if its there some where step by step mentioned and I shall update the reply once I shall find the link. Hoep someone else in the meantime finds it .

System Number in License screen changed after system copy

I have completed a Homogeneous system copy from GTP (Global Trade Production) to GTQ (Global Trade QAS). After the copy the system number in the SLICENSE screen changed from the original number when I first created GTQ to the system number listed in GTP. Now my permanent license key for GTQ will not work because the system number is different. Is there a way to change that system number so the License key will install?
Thanks
David

No. Thats not possible.
You need to update the info and request a new license at SAP Service Marketplace and install it on your system.

IPhone 4 in recovery mode after failed update with most recent software (3/25/13), I only have the past 30 days worth of photos and my contacts in iCloud, how do I get the rest of my pictures off of my phone? I have read the apple article already.

Basically headline says it all, my phone is in recovery mode following a failed update through the phone and I want all my photos back. I have already read the "iOS: Unable to Update or Restore" and it indicates that when restoring through iTunes, you lose all data on the phone. I have checked my iCloud (I am a Windows7 user so uploading does not happen automatically, as I unfortunately just figured out) and it only will upload my past 30 days of photos and contacts, inline with what I've read about the cloud only storing 30 days of your past data. I really would like to get all of my photos off of my phone, I had photostream activated and most were in that stream. Is there anything I can do? I don't know what operating system is on there currently, but I have always updated my phone succesfully until today when this happened, so I'm assuming whatever is most up to date until today is the OS it has. Thank you!

When your phone is in recovery mode, it's like it crashed. The only way that you can get it out of recovery mode is by restoring, and this erases all your data as well.
You can believe what you wish by "reading all over the internet". This is Apple's technical support forum. We do know what we're talking about.
since you have very important photos on your phone, why haven't you been importing them to your computer as soon as possible after taking them? This is how the phone is meant to be used. Keeping critical data on only a device which can be easily stolen, dropped and broken is just plain foolish. Also, did you not back up your phone (as you should be doing with any computer) before attempting any operating system update? As you've now just painfully learned, updates do not always go as planned.
I'm sorry for your data loss, but let this be a very important lesson. BTW, when was the last time you backed up your computer? I'm sure you have important data on your computer. Hard drives WILL fail.

Logical System Name after System Copy

Hello,
I have three questions about the logical system name after system copy.
Q1) When I change SID D22 to S11 during system copy,
do I have to change the logical system name of all clients in the target system? The target system is used for test, and the landscape has S11 and Virtial system. The target system S11 does not communicate with the source system D22.
Q2) If the answer for Q1 is YES, is it correct that the following procedure for changing logical system name?
1.Tr-CD:BD54
Add new logical system name for all clients in the target system.
2.Tr-CD:SCC4
As for all clients, select new logical system name with F4 help.
Q3) If the answer for Q1 is YES, do I have to add new RFC connection entries with SM59 for all clients in the target system?
I refer to the guide "Homogeneous and Heterogeneous
System Copy for SAP Systems Based
on SAP Web Application Server
ABAP 6.40 SR1".
thanks,
Keishi

Hi Keishi,
As a good and ideal practice the answer to your first question Q1 is yes. Infact I would say that in case you are using ALE then it is must
For Q2 there has to be an additional step which is most important one. Running BDLS transaction which would allow you to change logical systems in relevant tables from the one of source system to target system.
For Q3 the answer is agaain yes and you can have two approaches>
1. manually recreate all the RFC destinations after sys. copy.
2. Export all the RFC destination data relevant tables before system copy and then reimport them after sys. copy.

Dialog Instances Java are not up after System Copy NW2004s SR2 ABAP+JAVA

Hello guys,
I have just performed a system copy of our BW system (douple stack NW2004s) wich consists from CI and 2 DIs. First I made an export using SAPINST (Software from SAP_BUSINESS_SUITE_2005_SR2 for sparc solaris), where I choosed in SAP Installation Master->SAp Netweaver 2004s Support Release 2->Additional Software Life-cycle Tasks->System Copy->Oracle->Source System->Central System->Based on ABAP and Java->Database and Central Instance Export. I couldn't find any special task for export java from my dialog instances, so I thought it would be ok like that. Then I used the same software on my target system, choosed ...Additional Software Life-cycle Tasks->System Copy->Oracle->Target System->Central System->Based on ABAP and Java->Central System Installation. In the Dialog input phase of SAPINST I indicated that use db specific tools to copy your database. So I made the database restore+recovery with our DB tools and continued withthe SAPINST and Import.
Afterwards the ABAP part and Java on the central Instance run perfect, but Java Stack is not up by both of Dialog Instances. I have checked the configtool on the server where the CI is running (the DIs are running on different linux servers) and couldn't see any entries for my dialog instances, only the CI was seable there. I tried to start configtool from the application server, but there I could find only the file config.properties in the directory /usr/sap/<SID>/.../j2ee/configtool/, others were simply not there, so it was impossible to start it. Have i forgotten something by EXPORT/IMPORT or I should just use other software for coping a System with douple stack on a CI and DIs? Or should I get configtools for Linux platform ( have searched but not found yet) and try to make the same changes wich i have done by the CI before i started Java on the CI? The most irritated point is that i can't see the dialog instanes in Configtool from the CI.
Any other suggestions and good advices?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Manoj, 
I have founded following information in the work directory of one of my dialog instances ( where the java stack doesn't want to start after the copy): /usr/sap/SID/instance/work/ 
1) std_server0.out is in the condition before the system copy, no new data was written there. 
2)dev_disp

j2ee/instance_id = ID2645093 <--- that is the ID of those DI where i took these traces from. So it seems that this ID is not in the database at all. Probably the infromation about the java stack of my DIs was not exported at all...
Thanks in advance.

Ipone 5 stuck in recovery mode after failed update

Hi
I am stuck can anyone help?
My Iphone 5s tried to do a o/s upgrade while on holiday and got stuck in recovery mode saying it needed to connect to the pc. I connected waiting 1hr for the o/s software to download and extract only to see an error "The iphone "IPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (2005)." , I put the phone in
DFU mode and waited only to see the same error.
Help
I have followed a number of YouTube articles none fix the issue.

When your phone is in recovery mode, it's like it crashed. The only way that you can get it out of recovery mode is by restoring, and this erases all your data as well.
You can believe what you wish by "reading all over the internet". This is Apple's technical support forum. We do know what we're talking about.
since you have very important photos on your phone, why haven't you been importing them to your computer as soon as possible after taking them? This is how the phone is meant to be used. Keeping critical data on only a device which can be easily stolen, dropped and broken is just plain foolish. Also, did you not back up your phone (as you should be doing with any computer) before attempting any operating system update? As you've now just painfully learned, updates do not always go as planned.
I'm sorry for your data loss, but let this be a very important lesson. BTW, when was the last time you backed up your computer? I'm sure you have important data on your computer. Hard drives WILL fail.

IPhone stuck in recovery mode after failed update.

Hi, I have a bad situation here... My iPhone 5 got stuck in recovery mode after I tried to update to iOS 7.1.1 from 7.0.4 and it failed (error code 6). If this was my iPod touch I would just restore it because all I have is music, but this iPhone has all my sisters graduation photos, important photos, important school documents, contacts, app data, videos from concerts. Etc. I was wondering if I could get the photos off the phone before restoring it, because they are important. I know I should've backed up my photos and made a backup of the phone, but I've been really busy with a lot of stuff. So I was just wondering if there is any way to get the photos and app data back. The app data doesn't really matter but the photos do. The device was not jailbroken or hacked in any way.
If you could help, tell me ASAP.

Can I add a Lion Recovery Partiton After Install?

I just upgarded the hard drive in my MacBookPro8,2. I have both my old bootable drive (bootcamp, so 10.7.2 + Win7x64) and a networked Time Capsule with a recent profile I can restore from. I also created a fresh Lion install CD using the commonly available tricks, which is what I used to install Lion on my new drive. Unfortunately the installer had some problems with the fresh drive and required me to manually partition it. That's fine, but I only created a single partition, installed, recovered my profile via Time Machine, and Lion is now running just fine. Unfortunately I don't have a Lion recovery partiton or a Boot Camp partiton (yet!).
I know how to repartition the drive to get Boot Camp some space when the time comes. I also know how to use Disk Utility to get me a 1gb partition that could potentially be used for the Lion Recovery partition, however, this leads me to two questions:
(1) How do I manually create a 650MB partition for Lion Recovery, since Disk Utility's GUI only goes down to 1GB increments. I ask because the OEM partition is precicely 650.0MB and I'd prefer to make things as stock as possible and/or not waste any space.
(2) How do I create the bootable Lion Recovery Partition "after the fact"? I see plenty about how to create an externally bootable Lion Recovery USB drive (which I did and have available if necessary), but I don't see anything about how to make a recovery partition on my internal drive (which is required to run Find My Mac correctly, but I just plain want it anyway).
About Lion Recovery
Another guy having a similar problem to me, but not exactly the same. May be relevant.

AFAICT, you have two partitions, one for Lion and one for Boot Camp. The installer will only see the Lion one. Run this commend in the Terminal and post the results:
diskutil list
Nope - sorry, maybe I was a bit unclear. I only have 1 partition right now. I was simply trying to say [in my first post] that I know how to manually add a partition for Boot Camp. With that said, I haven't actually done it yet. To be even more clear, here's my partition information:
/dev/disk0
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *750.2 GB   disk0
   1:                        EFI                         209.7 MB   disk0s1
   2:                  Apple_HFS Macintosh HD            750.0 GB   disk0s2

Which is better Remote Client Copy or Homogenous copy

Hi All
I have a task to synchronize the ECC Production server with devlopment server
For this I have two option :
1. Remote client copy from Production to Development
2. Implementing homogenous copy(oracle procedure) of production server and then remove the existing development server.
I want to know your expert view with which one should I go with, as I have seen many times that whenever I do remote client copy it gives error in test phase the following tables error. so I am not sure wherther I just go with clent copy or not.
What things should keep in mind before doing it before doing homogenous copy?
Thankx in Advance

Vinay Paul

Hi All
Is there any solution for below if I decide to go with Oracle Procedure of system copy. Because we have to provide this to one of our client as there production and Development server are out of Sink.
1. Retaining the development history
2. Retaining the transports history.
I came to know that the above thing is possible but I have no idea how.
Thankx in advance
