Method for copying a directory tree from production server to test server

I have DSEE 6.3 running on Solaris 10 (servers A, B & C are multi-mastered and replicating successfully) in production. I have the same arrangement on a test set of servers (D, E, F). Could someone explain what is the best method for zapping the entire directory tree on test servers D, E, F ... and creating a complete copy of the tree on production servers A, B, C ... and then loading that copy on test servers D, E, F?
Thanks very much!

Copying directory data from one server to another

Hi friends,
I maintain two directory server (ver. 5.2) with same domain (xxx.com) and i have to copy the entire data from one server.
I tried to export from a one server and import it on another server, but it didn't get copied and it is getting object class violation error,
Please give me some tips to copy the entire data along with password encryption, so the users should be able to login to the new server.
Regards,
Iqbal

Before you copy the data, make sure the new server has all user-defned schema (objectclass, attribute) which reside on the first server. What you can do is to copy the schema over first. Then you can copy the data over.

I've just found the keyboard shortcut in Garageband for 'copy region' had changed from cmdC to ctrlC. I went to Preferences and clicked Restore Defaults for shortcuts. Now its altC . How can I get it back to the original commands.

When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive. It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas? I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

Production order number range after taking the back up from production serv

Dear all,
My client did a back up activity yesterday from production server to disaster recovery server.
After completing this activity they shut down there production server to do the testing of this new server.
Production guy converted the planned order to production order and he got a number say 2000064732, but the current number in number range is 2000080139.
But same guy created order one day before in production server that time the order number in 2000080138.
After 2 hours the system (by that time he has create more than 50 orders) started assigning the number as per the current number. Ex: 2000080140,141,142u2026
As per my observation they have maintained buffer as 20. As per buffering logic system has to skip in forward direction not in reverse direction.
But in our case the system skipped in back word that nearly 16000.
So please help me to find out the reason why the system assigned those number and on what basis.
Thanks for your help
Regards
Ramesh

See SAP note 62077, your application server was shut down, the numbers that are left in the buffer (that is, that are not yet assigned) are lost. As a result, there are gaps in the number assignment.

Logical path for getting a Flat file from application server

Hi All,
We have loaded some .csv files to application server, what is the logical path we have to mention in the infopackage scheduler screen? please guide me how to give the path for getting a flat file from application server.
Thanks,
Sairam.

Hi Sairam,
I hope you know which location you have saved in the Application server.
Now if you go to the Infopackage and click on the "External Data" tab, there you will see Radio Buttons for
1) Client Workstation
2) Application Server
Choose the second radio button, then in the Field "Name of the File" you will be able to use the F4 help and browse AL11 transaction through this option. You can then choose the File.
Hope this helps

Best practice for designing a directory tree

Hello all,
I wanted to know what you all think about what is the best way to design a directory tree. Again it seems to me that experience makes the man perfect and I wanted to know what you all think about how to design directory tree model.
Here is my view; I believe that keeping at least Users/ Employee information flat make more sense to me. I know itâs a good idea that one should consider an organizational hierarchy when designing a tree. But there seems to be some problem too. If employee moves from one department to another within the same organization then directory administrator has to change the location/department of the user. However, if all users are under the same namespace i.e. ou=Users, administrator does not have to change or move users location in the directory to another location.
Also, while designing a directory there could be several hierarchy, one is organizational hierarchy another could be organizing user info based on job roles i.e. CEO->VPs-Managers->Consultant.... and so on so. So which one should consider. So by considering ou=Users namespace, we are avoiding risk on favoring one type of hierarchy.
The trade-off in using ou=Users a flat namespace is that browsing of the directory looks less interesting.
Anyway, this is my view, I would like to know your views too and hope this thread will help other in building their own directory Tree.
Thanks
Syed Suhail Ahmad

Honestly it really depends on what you need your system to do and how you want to handle administration. I have read the argument about keeping things simple with using ou=USERS and seems like the best situation for administration purposes. Currently my client is wanting all identity management to be handled in OID so I am in the process of doing our hierarchy also. I still have to explore the abilities of OID to see how I can set things up.
There are a few good books and websites that are good for referencing ldap. One book I use is LDAP Programming, Management, and Integration by Donley. For websites, just search on google or check out www.ldapguru.com or www.openldap.org(possibly).
Hope this helps a little. I honestly can speak on the best way since I haven't implemented my own yet nor do I think one way will always be best for every situation.

Best method for copying database

I am building a new production database and was mulling over the 'best' (read: easiest) way to move / copy the database onto the new production server. I have exports and full RMAN backups from the production database. TIA.

Hi ,
Use the full automated procedure procedure called 'Clone Database' via Enterprise Manager.
Here is the overview of this tool:
Clone Database uses RMAN to duplicate a database from:
-- An open database in ARCHIVELOG mode, or
-- An open database in NOARCHIVELOG mode (restart required), or
-- A saved working directory from previous cloning
Clone Database performs the following operations:
-- Backup each database file and store it in a working directory
-- Transfer each backup file from source to destination host
-- Restore each backup file to existing destination Oracle Home
-- Recover the cloned database with saved archived log files
-- Open the cloned database with resetlogsRegards,
Simon

How to copy master data backwards from production to QA

Hello BI community,
Our transactional QA system was refreshed with a database copy of production, and the BW landscape was not refreshed. We cannot refresh the BW QA system because the production BW database is far too large to be duplicated.
So I'm searching for a way to bring all of the MASTER DATA up to date in the BW QA environment, without performing manual reloads.
Would it be possible to perform a copy of just the P,Q, X, Y, and T tables from production database to QA ? I believe this would cause inconsistencies with the S tables. But then, to copy the S tables backwards from production to QA would cause inconsistencies with the transational data providers.
Is it possible to do a "client copy" in BW where only the master data is transferred ? I think we'd be comfortable with reloading all new transactional data as necessary, just as long as the master data were brought back in its entirety from production to QA.
Any thoughts our guidance will be greatly appreciated !
Thanks,
Keith

big thanks to everyone who has replied, and especially for this suggestion!
The reason why we don't load the data from BW production is simply a matter of volume. It's a 7 TB data warehouse, and the master data sizes are huge.
One other option I was thinking of, since I used to be a basis guy, is to copy the entire production database and then delete, delete, delete away the transactional data until it's all gone. The only thing needed after that is a database real work to give the space back. Of course, the basis guy see that as a last resort
I'll try this suggestion above & then report back with the results... but I'm afraid the data sizes, again, will be prohibitive. We'll see.

Copy queries and reports from production to qa

Hi,
One of our customers has up to now created their BEx queries and reports directly in production
But from now on they are going to create them in dev and then transport to qa and prod.
Is there any way to transport the already existing queries/reports from prod to qa?
BR,
Linda

Hello,
You have to set up the transport ( Your BASIS can prepare transport landscape ) to bring the query transported from Prod to test environment
But you can copy Workbooks from Production to develpment.Open the workbook from Production ,disconnect from server,then save as new workbook or existing workbook..now log into Dev system and save workbook under required role.

The proc is compiling without any errors, but when im running it gives:

Uncaught exception
Process exited.
Disconnecting from the database XYZ
What could be the reason for the above condition??

How to copy procedures and packages from one server to another?

Hi,
I have 439 packages and 178 procedures located in one server called MAXWELL.
I need to copy these objects to another server called TITAN.
The schema names is SPCBR in both servers.
So both servers have an instance running with this schema SPCBR.
SPCBR in TITAN server has their tables with table data which was generated by an export/import process from MAXWELL server.
However, procedures and packages were not copied by the export/import because I used the clause 'tables'.
Now, what can I do in order to equalize procedures and packages in both databases? I can't risk in damaging or duplicating data in my database located in TITAN server, ok?
Thanks,

Another simple alternative, according to AskTom (http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:8:::::F4950_P8_DISPLAYID:454220160386)
---------------- getcode.sql ----------------------------
set feedback off
set heading off
set termout off
set linesize 1000
set trimspool on
set verify off
spool &1..sql

select decode( type||'-'||to_char(line,'fm99999'),
'PACKAGE BODY-1', '/'||chr(10),

------------------- eof --------------------------------
it extracts one procedure, function or package to a file. Thats it. If you
wanted to get all of the procedures in a schema extracted to the current working
directory, you would run a script:
--------------- getallcode ---------------------------
set termout off
set heading off
set feedback off
set linesize 50
spool xtmpx.sql
select '@getcode ' || object_name
from user_objects
where object_type in ( 'PROCEDURE', 'FUNCTION', 'PACKAGE' )
spool off
spool getallcode_INSTALL.sql
select '@' || object_name
from user_objects
where object_type in ( 'PROCEDURE', 'FUNCTION', 'PACKAGE' )
spool off
set heading on
set feedback on
set linesize 130
set termout on
@xtmpx.sql
---------------- eof ---------------------------------
You can see how to filter on that one by adding to the where clause if you want.
Just run @getallcode_INSTALL to run all of the scripts...

Why not use export import wizard for this if you've read access to production?
