LMS Database consistency verification tool

Hello all,
I upgraded from LMS 3.1 to 3.2 yesterday. The upgrade went well, but DFM and Campus Manager didn't work afterwards.
After a few searches on the forum, and the help of a great Cisco TAC engineer, we were able to solve the PIDM database inconsistencies that were preventing DFM links from showing up. And Campus Manager needed a kick in the butt to start again it seems.
My PIDM table had many duplicate device ids, some registered to DFM 2.0 (on the previous server) and some registered to DFM 3.1 (current server). So it seems the previous upgrade (from 2.6 to 3.0 and then 3.1) had some bad entries.
My question for the pros is this : is there a tool that can be run against the LMS databases to check for inconsistencies like these ? Duplicate entries, wrong server names, application version, and other nasty stuff ?
My next chore is to move LMS from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008, but before I do that, I'd like to make sure the DB is clean
Thanks!
Alex.

No, there are no tools to verify data consistency.  There is a tool to validate the file structure consistency of the database, but if the database is running, that is typically not an issue.
The PIDM table is the source of quite a few problems, but they are generally easy to sort out.  If you have a good backup of your 2003 server data, I would say you can do the 2008 migration.

  • Directory database consistency/repair check tools

    hi,
    my understanding is that the directory uses ldbm database backends for the changelog and diretcory dtaabase files? is this correct?
    if so are there any consistency/repair checking tools available to use on these? (apart from doing db2ldif dumps etc)
    thanks

    Sun DS 5.1 uses Sleepycat (Berkeley) DB version 3.3.x.
    I'm not sure if Sun provides db consistency checking tools. They might be in the DSRK. I suppose you could download the free source code from sleepycat and build them yourself.

  • What commands used for taking backup of oracle database using BR*Tools

    Can somebody please help me urgently to know what are the commands used for taking backup of oracle database using BR TOOLS.Also specifythe commands in detail which can be used for taking backups of oracle database ,Online Redo log files in databse using BRBACK tool,Archiving of offline, redo log files using BRARCHIVE, and Restoring a Database using BRRESTORE tool Commands(Plese specify the commands with their Syntax used).Also specify the commands with their Syntax which are used for taking backup of oracle database(online,Offline redo log files) into Tapedrives using BRTOOLS commands.
    Thanking You for helping (in advance).

    Dear Ashish,
    BRBACKUP / BRARCHIVE calls the operating system command to copy the files.
    Simple approach to get the commands is as follows.
    1. Set the BR_TRACE (as given in the SAP note 29321) and run the command for which you need to know the OS / SQL commands.
    2. This will generate the log file with the trace information. This trace has the information of the commands used by the job you have run.
    Hope this helps.

    Ok, I don't know much about MS SQL. Really.
    But just looking for "step contains one or more token" in the SDN search brought up this note:

  • Database Diff Wizard Tool problem

    Using Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.1 Build 5440.
    Third Party Extension jtds-1.1.2.jar
    I'm trying to determine if the Database Diff Wizard Tool contains functionality to allow/support diff compares between objects found in an Oracle Db instance and objects found in a MSSQL 2005 Db instance? I've established successful connections to each of the Db instances and can open/browse each one via the Connections browser. If compares between Oracle and MSSQL Db objects (vs. Oracle-to-Oracle only) are supported I must not have something configured correctly. Upon opening the Diff Wizard, (Tools --> Database Diff) and clicking on either the Source Connection or Destination Connection drop-downs only my Oracle Db connected instances are listed for selection. Could someone with experience using the Diff Wizard Tool offer assistance? (Provided SQL Developer supports this function).
    Thanks!

    Folks,
    I'm trying to compare two tables using Oracle SQL Developer, but I'm not being successful. :-(
    The tables are the same, but they are placed in two differente environments: development and production.
    Every time we need to make changes, we do it firstly at development environment. And I need to know which differences don't exist yet in production environment.
    Everytime I try to compare tables, I always receive a diff report with just one difference, like below:
    Type | Owner | Name | Change | Diff Count
    Table SINFA Artesao CREATE 1
    And in the the details window, there's the DDL of the table (source connection).
    Does someone have any idea of what's the problem?
    Thanks,
    Auler.

    For unknown reason the DR link broke between CA and primary.
    It says Site Replication status both way Active, but data replication is mixed. Parent to child Global data - failed and child to parent site data failed. Child to parent global - Active. Replication link analyzer performs several checks and then informs
    - Database consistency issues detected for site XXX.   (parent). Skiping rule  - shows different replication groups which are failed. I tried to replicate those, but nothing changed.(according to following article last step)

  • Landscape Verification Tool

    Dear SAP
    I have sucessfully installed the ST-LV 100 in client 000 (landscape verification tool) using the SAINT. My Production Client is 001.
    I refer to SAP Note 1468605 where is mentioned that "you have import delivery customizing " in bullet# 7 "After you install ST-LV 100"
    Do I need to import the customizing into prd client 001 after Add the ST-LV Component ?
    Please advise !
    REgards
    Anwer Waseem

    Hello Anwer,
    there's not a general rule to determine if you have to or do not have to import the customizing data in other clients than 000, it depends on each case.
    Please check note #337623, which contains a lengthy explanation on the matter:
    #337623: Customizing after installation or upgrade
    I hope this information helps somehow

    PS: Patching 14 to 16 (WAS/EP/KM/TREX, if this is needed completely) takes about 6 hours, 2 hours WAS, 2 hours EP, 1 hour KM and 1 for TREX; much depending on your machine, of course...

  • Database structure documentation tool

    I have been asked to include the database structure of our application in the help. It doesn't look as though there is a tool within RH that will do this but I thought it was worth asking in case it's hidden away somewhere.
    If not, there are plenty of tools out there that will do the job but are there any that will integrate best with my RH7 chm and webhelp output?
    Thanks

    Hi there
    No, there really isn't a tool in RoboHelp that will facilitate that. If you try a different tool you might ensure it outputs HTML files. You would then import the HTML files into a RoboHelp project.

  • Is database consistent?

    Hi @ll
    have oracle 9.2.0
    what is the best way to check whether the database is consistent or not when it is mounted?
    one way: i can try to open the database in read only mode oder i can open them.
    but is there a better way to check that. is there a view where i can check whether it is consistent?
    Regards

    Hi,
    In fact there's V$RECOVER_FILE, which from the link to TFM is a view that "displays the status of files needing media recovery", so I think the info the OP searches can be found there. But I don't know when is this view populated! I checked on my physical standby and the CHANGE# value was the one equivalent to the MRP (V$DATABASE.CONTROLFILE_CHANGE#), but hey, I don't have any database to crash in order to test this ATM. Maybe somebody can test and paste resultst there?
    Regards,

    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Check this part of the output that you have posted
    "repair_allow_data_loss is the minimum repair level for the errors found by DBCC CHECKDB (WSS_Content)."
    Which clearly states that your only option is "repair_allow_data_loss". This option should ONLY be tried as a last resort. If you have any chance of restoring the backup as Bass_player suggested that should be your way. Even if you run repair_allow_data_loss
    and it runs successfully and fixes the corruption, you still would be facing logical corruption with data, as we never know which all records repair_allow_data_loss removes.
    More over in case of SharePoint databases as far as I know, Microsoft Sharepoint Support never used to support those sharepoint databases which were repaired. They will only support a backup of the database in case of corruptions.
    I would suggest you to start working on a better disaster recovery plan in the mean while you are waiting for the backups :)

  • Generate SNMP Traps report from LMS database

    Hi Experts,
    Just wondering how LMS handle all SNMP traps received by LMS? Are the traps keep into a database on the server? Is there a way to extract them out as a report?
    Regards,
    Yi Shyuan

    Hello,
    Thank you for your answer, unfortunately this isn't what I was looking for.
    My idea was to generate fake-positives traps to test efficiently our NMS station.
    Traps that I would like to tests would be Temperature, Fan, Board.
    I found that chaning the yellow level of the temp sensor to the lower threshold can provide some start point, but I would like to ensure when a real event arrives that my NMS will react accordingly.
