OAS 10.1.2 Backup and Restore to a new box

Using the OAS backup/recovery utility, can one restore it to a totally new box with new hostname, ip etc...
Basically instead of installing a brand new OAS/portal can we utilize the jar and restore it instead?

To clarify further. these are the steps i performed.
1. Used Backup/Recovery console and backed up infra as well portal
2. Used exp command to get a dump of portal and its schemas. ( as suggested in Ch:11)
This listed out only the 'PORTAL','PORTAL_APP','PORTAL_DEMO','PORTAL_PUBLIC' schemas.
Not sure about the ones under INFRA
Not sure as to how to proceed further.
Do i install a new OAS/Portal on the new host now and import these files in the new schema?
Thanks

Can I backup and restore on a new computer without changing my main iTunes computer?

I just got AT&T to unlock my iPhone so that I can use it on multiple networks while I am traveling. In order to complete the unlock, I must backup and restore the iPhone on my iTunes. Unfortunately, my iMac that I use to sync my iPhone is being shipped across the planet and I won't have it for about a month. Is it possible to install iTunes on a new computer and conduct a backup and restore, without losing anything on the iPhone and still be able to sync with my iMac when I receive it?

Thanks for the clear and concise response ;-)
Anything in particular I need to be aware of? i.e. after I install iTunes on the new PC and connect my iPhone, do I need to do anything specific to ensure that the phone is not overwritten? Is it that simple that I can just connect the phone and it will back it up, then I do a restore and done? (Sorry but based on all the discussion threads I've read around this, I am skeptical that it is that simple.)

Backup and restore to a new server

Hello,
I have a new server that I would like to copied the production DB. This is what I have so far
1: A backup of the production Db (User manage backup -- no RMAN)
2: have the redo logs
3: I install and configure the server and a test database on the new system (SOLARIS)
Can some give me some hints on how to restore the backed-up database to my new system from the shell prompt? I don't have the DBconsole or GUI tool (my Admin block most of the ports....
Thanks in advance for your help
SYSTEM : SOLARIS
DB : 10G

A cold backup taken how? This is not as simple as it would be if you were a DBA and knew what you were working with.
Assuming I had a copy of the files I would be recreating directory paths, creating control files, setting environment variables, etc.
Look at this online demo for DataGuard
http://www.morganslibrary.org/reference/data_guard.html
It is used to create a physical standby which is not what you want but it shows the basic steps you need for backing up the primary
production database and for creating a duplicate. Hopefully this will help you with your research.

Preserving folders on iPad during backup and restore

Are there suggestions for preserving my folders during a backup and restore to a new iPad2? I have had experiences previously where my apps would be removed from the folders and I would have to spend lots of time reorganizing.

If you are restoring to factory settings, you will loose the folders. If you are restoring from a backup, then the folders should be what is in the backup. If you change the folders on the iPad after you made a backup, then create a new backup with the current arrangement and discard the previous backup.

Backup and restore Mac

Hard drive is failing and so I will need to backup and restore Mac onto new drive. My Mac is a Macbook 2009 and I use Time Machine weekly for backups. So when my new drive comes what will I do? What I imagine I will do is the following.
1. Take out old drive and install new one.
2. Boot from OSX SL Boot CD and format hard drive.
3. Restore Mac from time machine backup from Boot CD? Or would I need to install SL first?
4. Mavericks, Mountain Lion and such were installed from the Apple Store and have no CD so this may complicate things.
5. Regarding Windows XP Partiton I have no idea but I may need to install XP and Office again and if so I have the CD's. Or is there an easier way?
Thank you for your help.
John

If you can put the new drive in an external USB or FireWire case, and use SuperDuper! (Free for a full clone) or Carbon Copy Cloner) it would make your life much easer when you swap the drive.
As for Windows partition, you would need a Windows cloning utility.

My apps store will not go online with verizon network, but on wifi it works. I am on an iphone 4, verizon. I tried to do a complete, backup and restore on the phone 1 day before i noticed this problem, The backup finished but the RESTORE would fail I had an error, could not access Apple server ( some server name I cant remember).
I have plenty of space available on the iphone,
8gb free,
ios version- 6.1.3 ( 10B329)
carrier - Verizon 14.0
Modem Firmware - 3.0.04
Can someone help.
I tried doing my backup restore on the same computer as I once did a year ago. and THis time I cant do the restore on the iphone.
computer osx is 10.5.8
itunes version 10.
I do not wish to go to ios 7 at this time.

Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue continues, contact the carrier to troubleshoot the network connectivity issues.

Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect. Backup and Restore function not working. "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID"

Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect. Backup and Restore function not working. Message is: "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID." My Blackberry Messenger and Blackberry World is working fine so I am sure its not an ID issue on the phone. I can sign into Link, Blackberry.com and Protect. I see my device in Protect but cannot send messages or view it on a map. Times out with cannot reach device message. BB Protect on Device has a swirling circle beside the on/of switch. Cannot turn off.
I have deleted Link and re-installed.
I have reset phone to default(factory) and signed in.
OS level is 10.2.1.3062
BB Link is 1.2.3.56
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I managed to figure this out myself. I had to delete the device from the Blackberry Protect website. protect.blackberry.com. I wiped my device again and signed in with my Blackberry ID. I dont know if the step of wiping was necessary as I did not try my backup with the current configuration on the device following the delete. Restore is in progress for me!

The iCloud backup includes most things except non-iTunes purchased but the iTunes backup does not include those either. For what iCloud includes see:

2013 Backup and Restore

When I go to my backup and Restore and check the job status it tells me there is a backup in progress:
A backup or restore is currently in progress
How do I reset this as there is no backup that I have run for some time?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the job status still shown “A
backup or restore is currently in progress”.
Did you delete a old search application and recreate a new one before?
If so, maybe the old object is still existing in SQL, you can used the following stsadm command:
Stsadm -o deleteconfigurationobject -id “object GUID”
To find the object GUID, simply go into Central Admin - Manage Service Applications and highlight the offending legacy service application (Search Service
Application in the case). You should now be able to see the GUID in the IE address bar. Run the command above, and try your backups again and all should be well.

Iphone4 would not restore Error -50. I have tried to restore and it restored it to the point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out.

Iphone would not restore---- Error -50. I have tried to restore, and it restored it to the new point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out. I can see earlier backups in my C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup folder. There are four subfolders in this address. I need my contacts, photos, and messages back. I know this is a common error but I can not figure it out. I have ran the other troublshoot items in the error steps for 13 and 14 like apple says. Is there a way to call apple and get a step by step of how to restore from another restore point? Does anybody have a solution????

It tells you to go to Error 13 and 14 if you receive error (-50).
Here is what I have tried...
Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting. I have moved it around to different ports.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer. Didn't change anything.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts. Removed all virus protection and firewall.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.Used the Microsoft fix it.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online. Doesn't matter.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network. I do not know how to do this or how to find the correct/full/complete restore point. There should be more information for this.

Now, I understand how the backup and restore the backup features function. However, if I don't want to transfer the music that I have on iTunes to my phone, how do I avoid it? How do I not transfer the music or take it out of my iPhone if it is already there? I really do not want any music on my iPhone because I have an iPod for that. Thanks. Hope someone can help.

When you connect your phone and start iTunes on the left side you will see your phone listed under devices.Click on te icon next to it that looks like a battery. Click on the music button at the top and uncheck the sync music box.

Windows 8 full system backup and restore to new laptop (system with 32GB mSata Cache)?

Hi, I have a new Envy DV7-7205 which has 2TB storage with 32GB HDD Cache (or mSata, not really sure how it's implemented). I need to return the laptop as it's faulty but I would like to startup on the replacement exactly where I left off.
Are there any special methods required to backup and restore the system image from the old laptop to the new one, particularly with consideration to the 32GB SSD cache, as this doesn;t seem to appear as a distinct "drive" on the system.
Please can anybody advise the simplest, safest method to move my entire system from old to the new laptops (should be exactly the same spec machine).
Many thanks,
Greg
HP Envy DV7-7205tx, 2x1TB HDD, 32GB mSata Cache, Windows 8 Pro

Hi,
Firstly I don't know how this is going to work on new machine because the Windows 8 lisence would NOT work at all.
Regards.

Can I backup and restore my itunes media using a hard drive?

Can I backup and restore files if I used a hard drive?
I do not want to backup my entire itunes library of >200 GB to individual CDs and DVDs, if I can help it; it will take forever. Hence the above question.
Thanks!

The answer to your question is yes, though anyone who posts to this group would not be asking that question. I think you might be looking for the iTunes discussions group?

How to backup and restore working Mac OS 9 computer ?

I have a working G4 running OS 9.0, and I would like to backup and restore that hard disk to a second G4 computer that is OS 9 bootable.
I have a CD backup taken by Toast v4, of the entire disk, but I do not know how to restore the contents to the second computer. My previous attempt hosed the hard disk inside the second computer.
I'm thinking I can boot up the second computer via cd-rom or external hard disk, but I'm not sure I can copy the contents from the cd-rom correctly. In particular, I'm guessing the boot sector is challenging to restore.
I probably have some old OS 9 cd-roms around here, if I need to go that route.
I've thought about removing the working hard disk, and using dd on a linux machine to make a clone of the drive. I'd prefer not to go that route, as I don't want to touch working hardware.
I've also thought about hooking up a portable USB disk drive to my working OS 9 machine, and doing some sort of cloning. I'm not sure what program I would need to do that, and whether it's part of the OS 9 suite of tools, or a 3rd party tool. I used to own some various disk tools, but it's been so long I'm not sure I can find the cd's.
So if anybody can point to some instructions on the net for me to follow, or have any suggestions, I'm all ears.
Thanks
mark

If the second computer originally shipped supporting a newer OS 9.x
system than the first 9.0, the other computer's OS9 version probably
won't work since it would be too old. In the case of drag and drop,
you can get away with a lot more than what an installer package may
allow, since the installer's software can be avoided with Pacifist. So
another computer's OS9.2.2 basic system could be used as a boot
volume even if it is sparse and not the fully complemented OS 9.2.2
that a full retail build would install from a rich full retail install disc.
Usually the retail path was an OS 9.2.1 retail and the update to 9.2.2;
but machines requiring OS 9.2.2 won't like a 9.2.1. Sometimes, since
a drag and drop is not driven by installer software, you can use older.
But machine specific bits, some critical for graphic card drivers & etc,
would be likely missing unless the software used offered that support.
If you can find one of these, it may work = note, out of stock:
691-3638-A Apple G3/G4 9.2.2 (CD) System Software
{This is a Mac OS 9.2.2 full installation CD, color Grey.}
These do not come in retail packaging.

Have fun, even if it isn't exactly as planned.
Good luck & happy computing!

Is all your music in iTunes on your computer? If so with your device plugged in make sure the sync music box is checked.
