Moving ASM disks from one datacenter to another to different machine

Environment: 4 node RAC
Version: 11.1.0.7
Storage : ASM (Oracle ASM library)
DB size : 3TB
We need to move the database to another data center to high power servers(more cpu & ram & different brand).
if we shutdown the db and Disks are moved from data center A to B. can we easily mount these diskgroups on servers in Data center in B?
I guess this is possible....so after Disks are moved to data center B. From oracle perspective, just need to ADD diskgroup name in ASM_DISK_GROUPS parameter and mount it?

If all the disks in an ASM diskgroup are intact, and is compatible version wise with that ASM instance, then that instance can mount the diskgroup.
I guess this is possible....so after Disks are moved to data center B. From oracle perspective, just need to ADD diskgroup name in ASM_DISK_GROUPS parameter and mount it?Yes. Also assuming that on the physical o/s side, ASM has the required access to these disks.
Be careful of how the disks are moved though. If those disks are "touched inappropriately" by the storage admins when zoning/LUN masking/whatever them, they will corrupt data on it - and ASM will be unable to use these disks.

Moving Hard Disk From one Mac to Another

I am thinking of buying a new macbook. I have the C2D 2.16 Ghz right now. So if I would buy, lets say the new 2.4 Ghz model, could I just take the hard disk from the one I use now and put it into to the new Macbook?
Would it boot up?
Thanks!

As i understand you already have a MacBook and your thinking of buying a new one, to witch you want to have all your present data.
Instead of removing the physical HD from one and reseating it in another you cloud try one of these options out:
1.
If you have 10.5 on your present MacBook you might think of using TimeMachine:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/15638.html
-great feature restores your whole system as you see it
2.
You have a utility called Migration Assistant, you´ll find this in Applications>Utility folder:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1554?viewlocale=en_US
3.
Use a firewire cable to transfere the information you need.
Best of luck.

Moving Folder Redirect from one Domain to Another on Different Servers

We are in the process of putting in a new server; Win Server 2008 R2, and creating a new domain for a client. We need to move the folder redirect from the current server (server1.currentdomain) to the new server on the new domain (server2.newdomain). We
want to keep the UNC on the client PC's the same. The SAM file will be rewritten.
What is the best way to go about this?
What potential security/rights issues can we prepare for?
Thanks.

Hi,
As you said the NTFS permission could be an issue if we move Folder Redirection to another domain.
Generally users should be the owner of their own redirected folders. However as folders are moved to a different domain, all permissions for user accounts in old domain will not be recognized.
In this situation you can try to set folder redirection policy in new domain first so that folders will be created - remember uncheck the settings of "Grant the user exclusive rights" so that domain admins still have permissions on these folders.
Then you can copy files from old server "into" these created folders.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I have over 200 hours of HD video on 5 different TB Thunderbolt GRaid hard drives. I need to reorganize my projects, moving large files from one drive to another. Advice?

Do some testing to get your method working right with some less than important footage.
Copy/paste files where you want then.
Use the FCE Reconnect feature to tell FCE where the newly copied files reside.
Make sure the new location and files are working as expected with your Projects.
Delete the original files if no longer required.

Moving multiple queries from one category to another in QM

Hi All,
Is there is any way of moving multiple queries from one category to another in the query manager?
Or is the only way of doing it by saving each one individually into a different category.
Any ideas ?
Regards,
Rakesh N

Hi Rakesh,
The query manager has limited function compare with normal file management applications. Under current design, you have to do this one by one. You just need to make sure move the smaller amount of queries to large category. Category name can be changed easily.
Thanks,
Gordon

Moving CMS database from one server to another

Using the following:
Crystal Enterprise 10, installed on W2K3 Server R2 (not making any changes to this server);
CMS database, installed on W2K Server, SQL Server 2000, SP3
New database server: W2K3 Server R2, SQL Server 2005, SP2
I found what I think are the steps to moving the database from one place to another in the CE10 Administrator's guide (pages 291-300, but I want to make sure there aren't any "gotchas" when moving the database location and/or upgrading the database version. I'm primarily a DBA, so I already know about the Schema security change going from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.
In a nutshell, here's my plan:
1. Take fresh backup of the existing CMS database
2. Stop Crystal Management Server
3. Click "Specify CMS Data Source" on the toolbar.
4. ETC--following the steps in the admin guide
If anyone has done this and has run into any problems (what I'm expecting) or had it go smoothly (I would be surprised), please let me know what to expect.
Thanks!

All you really need to do is stop the crystal services.
Backup the CMS and Auditing database
Detach the CMS and Auditing database
Copy CMS and Auditing databases to new DB server
Attach the CMS and Auditing databases
Set the compatibility mode
On the servers/s that host the CMS service, modify the ODBC connections to point to the new database server
Start the CMS service, fire up the Crystal services.
One thing to note, I don't think SQL 2005 is a supported platform for CE10 - this doesn't mean it won't work and since the support lifecycle for the product is long gone it doesn't really make much difference however you may want to run some thorough testing prior to the move.

When moving a page from one pdf to another I see a message "consolidating fonts" and the added page does not view properly

I am working with multiple PDF files in Acrobat Pro XI. Sometimes when I move a page from one PDF to another it does not view properly. It was fine in the source PDF, but not when moved to the desired PDF. I also see a message momentarily across the bottom of my screen that says "consolidating fonts". What must I do to fix this?

Lloyd ,
Follow these steps for Acrobat 11 .
Launch Acrobat>Tools>Print Production>Acrobat Distiller
Now in Acrobat Distiller follow these.
Select Standard in Default settings.
Go to Settings and select Edit Adobe PDF Settings.
Select Fonts and in the font source window select the fonts you want to Add.
Click Save As and then OK.
See if this helps.

When moving my iphone from one computer to another, the apps do not follow and if I purchase an app on the new computer, it seems that all previous apps on the iphone will be lost How do I import the previous apps to the new computer?

When moving my iphone from one itunes computer to another, the apps installed on the original computer do not show on the new one. How do I get those apps to be recognized on the new computer without deleting them all from my iphone as it asks.

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

Having trouble moving mail messages from one user to another

I am trying to move mail messages from one user to another on my Macbook, and I cannot seem to do it. I've tried archive, but I don't think I'm doing it right. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Noreen
Message was edited by: reensjp

I had to go to the Mac store to get the answer to this one... i was archiving correctly, but you need to save the mbox files to your desktop, then move them to the shared folder, that way all users have access. I also had to edit the permissions on the files, as the user i wanted to have the emails didn't have permission to even look at the files.

Moving a Company from one server to another server

Dear All,
I have gone through all the SBO SDN Threads (related to SBO-Common) to know the role of SBO-Common data base in SAP B1, but the following case is still not clear to me. Please help.
Suppose I have two SBO servers (of same settings) as follows u2013
Server1:
Database                Company
SBO-Common          N/A
SAP_Abc_Co          Abc Co.
Server2:
Datebase               Company
SBO-Common          N/A
SAP_Xyz_Co          Xyz Co.
Now I want to transfer the above said Xyz Co (database-SAP_Xyz_Co) from Server2 to the Server1 (keeping all other companies in Sever1 intact). How to do it?

SBO-Common, also acts as the license server.
To transfer a company from one server to another you can do like Steffen said.
You don't need to backup SBO-Common.

Moving user files from one server to another.

Hi everyone
I would need your help to help me migrate the user files of around 300 persons to a new server.
Is there a tool that could help me doing that?
Here is the situation:
I have an old 2003 server with all the user accounts. We are using the shares to manage rights.
We want to migrate all these accounts to a 2008 R2 server using NTFS rights.
So:
is there a tool that could:
- copy the files and put NTFS right automatically with the username (%username%) as owner for each user personal folder.
- change the path of the personal folder in each account in AD to the new server.
- Make them automatically members of a specific group (We use that group to exclude these users from the old login script that would've map to old server instead.)
is there anyone who could help me with this issue?
Thank you very much!
Dag

Hi Dag,
You can use robocopy to copy user files NTFS permissions from one server to another server and use /COPY:O to copy the owner information.
For robocopy command, I would like to suggest you refer to the below article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733145(v=ws.10).aspx
Robocopy will not help copy Share permissions but only NTFS permissions. So if the drive letter will not be changed, you can backup and restore the Share permission with steps here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/125996
Then you can refer to the article below to change the path of the personal folder in each account in AD:
Change a user's home directory

Moving a Subreport from one section to another with C#

Hi,
I'm new to this forum, so please forgive me if I posted my question on the wrong board.
I try to programm something like a litte template engine for our Crystal Reports (we are working here with CR 2008). Users of our application should be able to configure a template which parses the Report and rearranges sections and subreports accordingly. basicly, we design a report with, for example, four detail sections, in one of them we placed a subreport. The user should now be able to define, that detail section c is on top of section a (I solved this already) and that the subreport1 is shown in the report footer and no longer in the detail section.
How can I move a subreport from one section to another?
By the way, I'm using the Report Application Server SDK. I also found the SubreportController.ImportSubreport - method. But it only imports Subreports placed in another .rpt-file.
Hope somebody here could help me
Thanks in advance
Jerry

First place to start will be with the RAS samples page:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/NETRASSDK+Samples
Next see [How to Use The RAS SDK .NET With In-Process RAS Server|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10b840c0-623f-2b10-03b5-9d1913866b32]
The developer help is [here|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/rassdk_net_dg_12_en.chm]
Possibly one of the simplest ways of achieving what you want to do is to have a copy of the subreport on the HD and import it into the main report as needed:
//Get SubreportController object from ReportClientDocument object
SubreportController subRptController = reportClientDocument. getSubreportController();
String name = "GlobalSales.rpt";
String reportURL = "C:\MyReports\GlobalSales.rpt";
//Get the section into which the subreport will be added
ISection footerSection = reportClientDocument.getReportDefController() .findSectionByName
("FooterSection");
//Return the imported existing report as a SubReportClientDocument object
ISubreportClientDocument subRptClientDocument = subRptController. importSubreport(name,
reportURL, footerSection);
catch (ReportSDKException e)
//do something here
