Mimic Database/Server crash

Guys,
What is the best way to mimic Database/Server crash to test the backup and recovery strategy?
Thanks

Unplug the server. I'm not joking, that's the way I do it on my laptop (on which I installed Oracle). If you want a more elegant way, a "shutdown abort" is exactly like an instance crash.

Exchange 2007 Database mount error after server crash during defrag.

Most likely but I have copies of the orignal and the temp still.
Is there a way these can be used?? I was hoping not for a MS Support answer... =/

Help!
Half way through copying the temporary database edb file my exchange server crashed.
I now get the following errors when trying to mount the database.
Error:
Exchange
is unable to mount the database that you specified. Specified database:
Mail Store; Error code: MapiExcetionJetErrorPageNotInitiated: Unable to
mount database. (hr-0x80004005, ec=-1019)
I still have the temp
database file from the finished defrag and a copy of the original
database from before it was done. But need some urgent help to get my
system back before tommorow!
I do not have circular logging enabled.

ConnectionPool crashes once database server is down

Hi,
I have written a connection pool to connect to a Oracle database from a servlet script. The connection pool creates a pool of say 5 connections and when required a servlet picks up a connection from the pool uses it and then frees it. Now once the database server goes down the servlet throws sqlexception when it tries to connect to the database with the connection obtained from the pool...this is just fine. But now even if the database is up and running again the servlet still throws the same SQLException(IO problem). I have to restart the Application server to get my servlet working again.
Does anyone have any idea about why this happens ?????????

Seems to me that your Connection object should catch the "failed to connect" error and set an internal flag to indicate that it is now unusable. (And then throw that error on to its caller, of course.) And then the code that gives out Connections from the pool should inspect that flag, and if the Connection is unusable it should throw it away and try to create a new one.

Unable to start EBS DB after the Server Crash. Error in installing the Required RPM.

Hi , Hussein ( As most of the Time It is Only you here who comes to the rescue or give Usefull inputs. I am sorry if i mistaken, no Pan intended for Other Experts)

The Packaged are already there on the server as the RHEL software DVD is copied on the server.
Yes it was working before the crash, And Even after the Crash i.e
after starting the server in Xwindows I was installing the rpms from RHEL6/Packages directory on the server even installed 10-12 rpms
and was in the process of installing the sabayon rpm i 've inadvertantly issued or run this command
rpm -ivh *.rpm --force --nodeps from RHEL software Packages directory.
and it ended up with Errors Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID fd431d51: BAD
   After that I could Not install any rpm from rpm or yum command.
   I 've Downloaded the new sabyon* and Other rpms from the net and tried to install them with rpm or yum command but
    got the same Errors Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID fd431d51: BAD
   with yum am getting this error
   error: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID ec551f03: BAD.
I 've Tried searching on google as well for at least 10 hours but did not get any help from it so far.
The Reinstallation of OS is not AN Option for me rightnow.
   Could you tell something which i could try & may be that works.
Thanks

Server crashes when doing DBCopy

We are trying to upgrade to GW2012. We have a new DL360G8 server running SUSE Release 11, kernal 3.0.93-0.5. All HP diagnostics on the computer and raid pass.
When we do dbcopy to move databases from our existing GW8 system, the server crashes saying there was a raid controller issue. No more details than that.
We've tried this on 2 new servers - same issue. Only crashes when using DBcopy - not when we copy large files using other methods.
HP and Novell have not been able to come up with any solutions.
Anyone have any ideas on this?

GUI is not needed. You need X and x/gdm installed because of some dependencies in the agents allowing them to expose a GUI if requested, so they need those bindings. But having gdm or X running is not needed at all once the system is installed.
And again, we saw a very similar issue. Either the scsi driver crashes - which disconnects you SWAP and the OS just seizes up - OR - it would cause so much I/O that the OS could not swap quick enough and you would never be able to operate the GUI to get in. We also saw an issue with the graphics adapters on these servers as well, with the GUI running we would see this behavior, without it, everything was fine.
On one initially problematic box, we have had, literally, no unplanned downtime for 3 years once we ditched the GUI.
Also, you can try to limit the number of threads dbcopy is using the -t parameter, e.g.
/opt/novell/groupwise/agents/bin/dbcopy -m -p -f -t 3 /source_path /destination_path
And I just thought of this, since you mention a server to server copy, If the source / destination is a CIFS or NCP mounted share, you can also run into another issue: oplocks. Disable oplocks on both ends, and on the linux box, if using CIFS:
echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/OplockEnabled

POA won't load after Server Crash - 8209 file not found err

Groupwise server crashed recently (apparently from bad RAID controller, which has been replaced). Server is back up an running now (SLES 10 sp3 VM running under XEN, GW 2012 sp1). Have performed a rebuild on Primary Domain and also on single Post Office. MTA loads OK, as does GWIA but POA fails to come up, giving "Path Not Found - 8209 error" message. Path to WPhost.db is correct both in C1 and in the startup file. When loading POA with --show option, I see the aforementioned error and then when I clear that I see on the screen (for a brief moment):
"Rebuilding Guardian Database because of C0221... please stand by"
Then it terminates and screen disappears.
I know that restoring from backup is one option, but that cannot be done until Monday at the earliest and that, of course, is dependent on having good backups. Therefore, I was wondering if there is a way to fix this problem to get the system back up quicker. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
Don
P.S. There is only 1 Primary domain and 1 PO in this small GW system and yes, I know, one should have at least 1 secondary domain.

Thanks for the suggestion, Danita.
OK, I backed up all copies of ngwguard.* from the PO directory. Then, I deleted ngwguard.db and copied the ngwguard.fbk (same exact file size as the deleted ngwguard.db) from ofmsg/guardbak folder to the PO directory as ngwguard.db. Now, I did notice that there was no ngwguard.fbk in the PO directory but instead a ngwguard.dba file, which I left as is. I then started the POA - ./gwpoa --show @po.poa & and now it no longer gives me "Path Not Found" error, but instead it displays:
"opened a file that was not a flaim file C03F"
I click OK on this warning and then POA monitor screen displays for 2 seconds "rebuilding ngwguard.db ..." before it bails and terminates.
So, is it looking more and more like a ngwguard.db problem as opposed to wphost.db? And, I am of course curious why using that backup of ngwguard would not work. In any event, today I will be trying to get backups of wpdomain.db and wphost.db off of tape and perhaps I should restore ngwguard.db as well - this is dependent, of course, on having a good backup that is restorable. If that is not the case, is there an option to rebuild the ngwguard.db file? Thanks.
Don

Quite possibly. You do need both a wphost.db and an ngwguard.db file for the
POA to properly load. There should be two relatively "new" copies in the
system:
ngwguard.fbk in the same folder as the PO, and then the ngwguard.fbk in the
ofmsg/guardbak folder.
Try copying one of these as ngwguard.db in the PO folder, and if that doesn't
work, you will need to go to "backup" to restore.

No access at all to NDS since server crash

last weekend our single server crashed (NW 6.1, SP2). with a nss rebuld Ive fixed the volume problem, the SYS partition is working again.
but also the NDS database seems to have crashed. its totally unable to login, even as an admin. ive tried DSREPAIR in every possible way, but referring to an "still open database" every repair is aborting.
its like staying outside of the door and just being able to look inside through a window. there is only access to the volume from server console and ip network is working.
is there any possibility to delete nds database and set up a completely new one, to gain access? since it is the only server, there is also no possibility to operate from a second one.
thanks for help
regard wolfgang

There is no NW 6.1; did you mean 6.0 or 6.5? In either case SP2 is disastrously out of date and may gave contributed to this problem.
Down the server to Dos and bring it up with server -NDB . Ignore all errros, and when it comes up load dsrepair and try running a local repair with all options set to Yes except "exit automatically on completion". When it finishes accept its fixes and exit dsrepair. Hopefully at that point the database will open; if not it is too corrupt to repair.
At that point, if you have no NDS backup then it's new tree time and you've lost everything in your old tree. Load nwconfig | directory services and do Remove Directory Services from this server. If that fails too, exit nwconfig and load it again withg the -DSREMOVE switch. Do the Remove DS action again, you'll get the same errors but be able to continue. After that completes, exit nwconfig and load it up again with no switch, and do the Add DS action.

Calendar Server crashes in Yosemite 10.10 with Server App 4.0

I am running an OS X Server (4.0) in Yosemite 10.10 locally on my iMac to provide calendars in our house. Since the combined update of OS and the "Server App" the calendar server crashes frequently. It restarts when I run the server app but crashes again a couple of minutes later.
Error log is below, I hope someone has an idea.

Looks like a corrupt database. I suggest you export all calendars on the clients, then delete /Library/Server/Wiki/Data and reinitialize the server.
Back up all data.
Quit the Server application and drag it to the Trash, but don't empty. You'll be prompted to confirm that you want to stop all services. You won't lose any data.
If you're using the server for DNS, temporarily change the primary DNS setting in the Network preference pane to your ISP's DNS.
Put the app back where it was and launch it. Test.
Revert the DNS setting, if applicable.

SERVER CRASH

Hi,
I'v following configuration.
DB server:
Linux red hat 4.4 64 bit
Model dell 6950
oracle version=10.2.0.3
App server:
Linux red hat 4.4 32 bit
Model dell 2950
Apps version =11.5.10.2
I've been noticing DB server crashed 4 times in past 5 months. 2 out of 4 crashed was happened during PAYROLL related process like sick leave,payroll process .
Nothing pop up either in Linux log or alert log.
Does anyone had have similar issue in past?
Any advice/thoughts are welcome.

I've been noticing DB server crashed 4 times in past 5 months. 2 out of 4 crashed was happened during PAYROLL related process like sick leave,payroll process .Do you mean a server crash or database crash?
Any changes have been done at the OS/Application/Database levels?
Nothing pop up either in Linux log or alert log.Without having any entries in the log files it is hard to find out the cause of the error.
Any advice/thoughts are welcome.If you are able to reproduce the issue, enable trace and see if more details are collected in the log files.

Database Sudden Crash

Hi All,
My DB Version: 10.2.0
OS Version: Windows Server 2003
During Normal Working Suddenly DB Crash and the error in log file is like that
Errors in file c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\admin\tsi\bdump\tsi_dbw0_7608.trc:
ORA-01242: data file suffered media failure: database in NOARCHIVELOG mode
ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file 18 (block # 5285)
ORA-01110: data file 18: 'E:\CAT\IN_OCT17.DBF'

OSD-04008: WriteFile() failure, unable to write to file
O/S-Error: (OS 33) The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file.
Can anyone tell me what is the reason of this happening.
Regards,
Vikas Kohli

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/intro008.htm#sthref96 explains why an I/O error triggers an database instance crash in your case:
>
If the instance cannot write to a datafile other than those in the preceding list, then the result depends on whether the database is running in ARCHIVELOG mode or not.
In ARCHIVELOG mode, the database records an error in the database writer trace file and takes the affected datafile offline. (All other datafiles in the tablespace containing this datafile remain online.) You can then rectify the underlying problem and restore and recover the affected tablespace.
In NOARCHIVELOG mode, the database writer background process DBWR fails, and the instance fails, the cause of the problem determines the required response. If the problem is temporary (for example, a disk controller was powered off), then crash recovery usually can be performed using the online redo log files. In such situations, the instance can be restarted without resorting to media recovery. However, if a datafile is damaged, then you must restore a consistent backup of the entire database.
>
I'm not sure that is hardware related: maybe you have an anti virus executable reading this database file ?

Workbench crash leads to server crash? (xpost from configuration forum)

I have two issues, first a workbench crash which I suspect led to a server crash. Please read this in its entirety as I am including the workbench log and then the server log entry. Any advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I have a process with only one service on it - the LDAP service. I can test the service just fine (by using the "Test" button inside the properties for the LDAP service), but I'm also trying to activate the service. When I do that, everything locks up and I have to terminate workbench and relaunch.
It's repeatable as it does this every time I try to activate this process. The .log file under the workbench directory says there is no active service configuration for
service: [amalLDAPProcess]. I am new to this, can you advise as to what that means?
Here's the actual workbench log entry:
!ENTRY com.adobe.workflow.editor 4 4 2009-01-08 14:51:00.332 !MESSAGE got an unknown exception There is no active service configuration for service: amalLDAP Process loading headConfig for category A_Amal !STACK 0 ALC-DSC-023-000:
com.adobe.idp.dsc.registry.service.NoActiveServiceConfigurationException:
There is no active service configuration for service: amalLDAP Process
I already did configure the LDAP service and when I use the LDAP service in my process, the TEST button returns the LDAP attribute I am looking for. So I believe I have LDAP configured properly. My process basically takes a form, goes to LDAP to get the manager, and adds the manager name on the form.
I gave up for the evening only to discover that today the livecycle server (service) was down and our server engineer was unable to start the service. After a 70 minute startup, it finally came up (and loading workbench and connecting to the server was really slow). Here is the server log entry. The error messages in the Websphere logs indicate a time-out issue, possibly attempting to connect to the datastore.
I started the services around 11:30am, and the application was not up until 12:40pm. Can you please forward the log entries below to Adobe, to see if they can identify the nature of the problem?

The configuration of Java messaging in your WebSphere environment is not correct.
The messaging engine, ME_UUID=62C3CBD16BCAA972, INC_UUID=6C286C28BC38EAED, has lost an existing lock or failed to gain an initial lock on the data store.
Typically, the WebSphere Service Integration Bus (SIB) will have a messaging engine attached to it. This can be a single server or a cluster. In any case, it needs an EXCLUSIVE lock on the JMS tables in the database (they start with SIB...) and currently they can't.

7.1 EAS server crashing after using migration wizard

We have 7.1 Essbase installed with EAS running on a Unix box and the Essbase server running on NT. If we use the migration wizard the EAS server crashes after the migration has run. Has anyone else experienced similar problems ?

Problem solved. The .sec file was copied from a different server and the database storage settings referred to a drive letter that was not available on the 7.1 box. This caused the app to crash and brought down the EAS box as well. I guess I'm a bit surprised that this type of problem causes EAS to terminate as well, given that (most types) of database corruption don't cause 6.x Essbase servers to terminate.

IFolder on Ubuntu 11.04 Server crashes simias10 webservice

After following installation instructions posted here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iFolderInstall
I can get a Ubuntu 10.04 x64 work fine, but couldn't get 11.04 x64 to work.
I can get all the compilation and installation steps (by default it doesn't use LDAP), but when I first try to login to admin interface or http://myserver/ifolder I get a message telling me:
"The username or password you entered is incorrect. Please log in."
They are not wrong, so I tried to look for anything going wrong:
I noted that when i try to access
http://myserver/simias10 at ubuntu 10.04 installation it shows up a HTTP login request
When I do the same on Ubuntu 11.04 installation it gives me a 500 error
So I went to apache2 errors log to find more information and I got this:

I can't get the iFolder client to compile properly on Ubuntu 11.04 on an AMD64 computer, following the instruction at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iFolderInstall.
So I would be happy to know if you figured out a solution...
Best,

try following (not steps, just points to check)
1. Verify simias.log for more details, this should give you hint if database is created or not, error in access etc...
2. Check the rights on wwwrun user on the datastore path.
