Location of Parental Control files

Does any one know where this file is stored? I thought it would be in user>Library>Preferences>com.apple.systemprefs. I tested a modified file with no luck.
Setting up for a computer lab in a school and want to have different settings for the different classes that are in the lab, as well as drop in students.
I have tried using easy find, change a file then search for .plist by date modified. We copied that file, made a change, put the old one back but this did not work. Where is the file that we are looking for?

Hi Daniel
in 10.4.10, they're in a folder.... HD//Library/Managed Preferences/account name/
you'll likely find at least three plists for each account name
com.apple.safari.plist
com.apple.applicationaccess.plist
com.apple.mcxprinting.plist
I don't know if the parental controls being On is flagged elsewhere, in another plist, but really...Easyfind should & does find these sorta files; were you searching the entire drive, for any plist file?

My experience of location of the control file

Just learn bad experience by putting control file on a remote server.
My original idea with the remote drive was to spread out th risk of losing all control files on the same location. But with one on remote drive it means
1. That remote server has to be always on. I can not shut it down for other purpose especially when the remote server is my test server.
2. My current oracle home was setup with a link directory from one drive to another local drive (by a previous Contractor). BAD for the startup if using the pfile. I have to include the total path of the pfile, even the init. ora file is in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs, when I use modified pfile to startup.
ex startup pfile='/total_path/init.ora'
however I can use below to create a new init.ora file that saves into the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
create pfile='init.ora' from spfile;
So I am going to change the location of my control file to one of the local drives, just different to that of other control files.
This is my 2 cents opinion. Welcome any comments. Thanks.

I think I can move second copy of redo log back to the server but at different hd when the Oracle is running. right?
by dropping the inactive one group and recreate the group while other current group is on. But very becareful
( I have practiced on my test machine to drop one member, but 10g does not allow)
I configured the flash_recovery to the drive where also store one copy of the archivelog. Since there is not much space left one other two drives, so I put other copy of the archivelog on a remote server.

Exact location of control file when db_create_online_log_dest_1 is set

In case in the init.ora file the below three parameters are set
db_create_file_dest =somepath1
db_create_online_log_dest_1 =somepath2
db_create_online_log_dest_2 = somepath3
then in which location will the control files be created? Its an interview question.
Kindly provide me info

How do you disable mobile account settings/parental controls

My school had a one-to-one macbook program, but I switched schools. Now i have a heavily restricted computer. They had my account set to mobile and had parental controls enabled, so I used single user mode to create a new admin (remove /var/db/.applesetupdone and reboot) and remove them. However, even though no account has parental controls turned on, they are still enabled somewhere for all accounts, even admins. I have two questions: how do i disable mobile account settings, and where are the parental controls files located? I found some in /library/managed preferences/<account name here> , but editing these gives only temporary relief from parental controls, and they are reset when i restart. There has to be somewhere else that parental controls are flagged as on/set to sync on login. i removed the actual parental controls executables and stuff somewhere in /system but after that i couldnt open activity monitor and i didnt want to risk a reboot. please help me as this is very annoying. btw im on OS X 10.6.7

HI,
Try this..
Open System Preferences/MobileMe and select the Sync tab.
Deselect the box where you see: Synchronize with MobileMe. The last sync will noted at the bottom left side of the window.

How to make the control file consistent when I re-mulitplexing them

Oracle 10g R2 on the AIX 5.3L
My current control files (three) from the default set-up are all located in the same directory (/dbbaan/oradata/<SID>/). If I want to change some of the multiplexing of the control file to different directory to avoid the media failure,
1. I copy one or two control files to different directory.
2. create a new init_sid.ora from spfile
2. edit the init_sid.ora file and change the locations of the control file
3. shutdown/restart the DB using the init_sid.ora.
4. create the spfile from the pfile
5 shutdown/restart the DB with new spfile ( "SQL> startup")
My question is: since there is always time lag between copying and recreating the new init_sid.ora, while the control file(s) are constantly updating, how can Db guarrente the consistency of the DB when I restart the DB (the control file specified in the init_sid.ora may be some time old) ? or does it matter?
I did above and my DB restart without problem.

Another problem concerns me. What happen if one of
multiplexed control file location, which I use a NFS
of another server, goes down and is not available
during the operation ( After I restart up the DB)? I
am sure I will see the error of that control file in
the alert log.If one of the control files not accessible during operation, Oracle will crash. So you better make sure all of your control file location are reliable and accessible.

Restore - filename for datafile is missing in the control file

I am practicing RMAN recovery procedures and I encountered a problem that I do not know how to solve.
1) I took a hot backup of my test database.
2) Create tablespace TS_DATA_TEMP
3) Deleted tablespace TS_DATA which had 2 datafiles
4) Created tablespace TS_DATA with 1 datafile
5) shutdown database
6) logged into RMAN in nomount
7) restore controlfile from autobackup;
8) alter database mount;
9) restore database;
RMAN> restore database;

So i'm not sure what the problem is. Datafile TS_DATA.dbf is located in the control file but i'm getting the error: the filename for datafile 5 is missing in the control file.
Suggestions on what's wrong with the control file?

I found my mistake; a newbie error.
I did not know I needed to include in my restore command the 'until' option when doing incomplete recovery. I only included the 'until' option in the recover command:
original command
restore database;
recover database until sequence =123;
should be
restore database until sequence = 123;
recover database until sequence =123;
I usually run the command using a RUN block with a SET UNTIL SEQUENCE but this case I used the single commands separately.
RUN
+{+
SET UNTIL sequence 123;
RESTORE DATABASE;
RECOVER DATABASE;

ORA-00245: control file backup failed; target is likely on a local file sys

Hello,
our RAC (Linux, 11.2.0.3.0) is rather new and we are still on gaining experiences with that system...
When starting the backup with RMAN we are getting the following error:
Starting Control File and SPFILE Autobackup at 04-JUL-12
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03009: failure of Control File and SPFILE Autobackup command on ORA_DISK_1 channel at 07/04/2012 16:41:48
ORA-00245: control file backup failed; target is likely on a local file system
The reason for the error is clear ORA-00245 - in a RAC environment the location of the Snapshot Controlfile must be on a shared location.
When executing the RMAN command "show all" on each node, we are getting
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db/dbs/snapcf_PROD021.f'; # default
for node #1
and
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db/dbs/snapcf_PROD022.f'; # default
for node #2
When using a shared location for the Snapshot Controlfile do we still need to setup 2 different names for that file?
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/<shared location>/snapcf_PROD021.f'; # default
for node #1 and
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/<shared location>/snapcf_PROD022.f'; # default
for node #2
Or should we configure just one Snapshot Controlfile?
The RMAN setup for "CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO..." must be changed on both nodes - correct?
Hopefully my question is clear enough - any help will be appreciated.

No, it must be configured on a shared storage:Not really required, i've RAC setup and snapshot is configured on local storage.
Configuring the RMAN Snapshot Control File Location
The snapshot control file is a copy of a database control file created in an operating system-specific location by Recovery Manager. RMAN creates the snapshot control file so that it has a consistent version of a control file to use when either resynchronizing the recovery catalog or backing up the control file. In Oracle RAC, the snapshot control file is only needed on the nodes on which RMAN performs backups; the snapshot control file does not need to be globally available to all instances in an Oracle RAC environment.
See below from doc.

Dynamic location for RTF file in Bursting Control File

Hi
I have a query that determines the directory location of the RTF file on the server. (eg. query returns /u01/apps/erpd2/inst/apps/erpd2_mcdeagaix821/temp/XMCI_B2CR009_RFS.rtf
Instead of hard-coding this location as:
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="/u01/apps/erpd2/inst/apps/erpd2_mcdeagaix821/temp/XMCI_B2CR009_RFS.rtf">
</xapi:template>
I change the above to
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="${RTF_LOC}">
</xapi:template>
and fetch RTF_LOC at the bursting level in the Data template.
After specifying the location as a token in the bursting control file, the Bursting program errors out. It does not even go to the post-processing stage.
I have fetched the Outbound SMTP server name in a similar fashion and specified the same as a token in the Bursting XML. It works fine. Also, when I hard-code the same RTF location in the bursting file, it works! Just specifying it as a token errors out the bursting process.
Pls advise.
Ritu

Hi Ritu,
I am probably too late to help you, but here is an answer for completeness. I had the same problem as you, I needed to make my template selection dynamic.
The bursting control file below was not working until I applied patch 8594771 (BURSTING DOES NOT SUPPORT ESCAPE CHARACTERS LIKE "FIRST LAST <[email protected]>" )
I managed to find this patch by running the XML Publisher Report Bursting Program with debug=Yes and got the message "java.util.zip.ZipException: ZIP file must have at least one entry". Searching on Oracle Support for this message delivered patch number 8594771
Here is my control file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xapi:requestset xmlns:xapi="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/xapi" type="bursting">
<xapi:request select="/XX_DUNNING/LIST_G_SITE_USE_ID1/G_SITE_USE_ID1/LIST_G_CORRESPONDENCES/G_CORRESPONDENCES">

Oracle 10gR2 OMF - Control file getting created at default unix location

Dear Expets
I have configured following three parameters in initialization file.
DB_CREATE_FILE_DEST
DB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_1
DB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_2
DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST
While creating new database (SQL>create database test), all files are created as per documented, but control files are created at OS dafult location and not as per defined variable.
Am I missing something or this is default behavior? As far as I understood admin guide, it should go along with Redo file locations.

Where is the location of tablespace file and control file

Hi, all
where is the location of tablespace file and control file? tks

For DataFiles, query DBA_DATA_FILES or V$DATAFILE
For TempFiles, query DBA_TEMP_FILES or V$TEMPFILE
For Online Redo Logs, query v$LOGFILE
For Archived Redo Logs, query v$ARCHIVED_LOG
for Controlfiles, query v$CONTROLFILE

Dynamic Template file location in control file in Bursting

HI,
Normally we hard code the location of the template in the control file and keep the file at that server location.
When we move from DEV to higher instances, we might need to change this path in control file. Is there any way to handle this dynamically and it will take similar path from the instance to which this control file is deployed.
I need the syntax to handle this situation.
Thanks,
Praveen


You have to hardcode the values like the one below. In this case, even if you clone your instance, it will continue to work.
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="xdo://SQLAP.XXV8_APXPBSRA.en.US/?getSource=true"
${short_appl_name} = SQLAP
${template_code} = XXV8_APXPBSRA
Darshan Says,
In this case assuming that while registering template you have specified langugae as 'English' and territory as 'United States', if you have not specified any territory then replace US with 00 for default.

Having Trouble using template in control file

DBCA -control file locations in template

Windows Server 2003 Enterprise. Oracle 9.2.0.6 With Oct 2005 patch.
I'm trying to place my control files in an alternate shared location as required for using Oracle Failsafe. The editor allows me to make changes but when I view the template and the scripts created the control file location is the default.
Have I missed a prerequisite step before energizing DBCA or is there a problem with the tool that I need to open a TAR for?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Darrell

This was in regards to the initialization parameters being edited in the DBCA. I found one workaround and one solution.
The DBCA was always taking the default {ORACLE_BASE} despite what was being displayed in the edit screen.
Workaround= Build your templates on a server where the {ORACLE_BASE} is defined as the target location you want and then move the template to the machine where you plan to build the instance.
Solution= Redefine the {Oracle_Base} value in the file initialization variable section during the creation of your template. It shows up as a default(unchangeable) but it allows you to reenter it with your desired value and override the default.
Hope this helps someone else down the road!

Parental Controls Log Location

I'm migrating a parental controlled computer's data to a new computer. Where is the location of all the logs ie. iChat? Note: they are not in the Documents/iChats folder since parental controls is on.

Since I mentioned I'm migrating all my data, one would assume that these logs are an item I wanted to be migrated also. I know where they are to view them, but where are they located to move them?

Why can't I use some form of parental control like IE to make it safe for my Kids?

I am just about to remove Firefox from my pc because I cant figure out how to protect my kids from the crap that is on the web!! I don't want them accidentally getting to an adult site.
