One silly question

Hi all,
RMAN offers three ways to restore datafiles to a new location while creating a duplicate database.
One of the option is
set newname for datafile 1 to '/................';
I an just wondering if there are many datafiles,who would want to do this tedious job of typing 100 times the same thing for instance?
So this option looses its worth in case of large number of datafiles?
Instead using DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT are better options.
So using these options should be DBAs best practices??
Thanks

SET NEWNAME command
To creates new datafile filenames, you must reissue this command each time you rename files.
Set DBFILE_NAME_CONVERT initialization parameter:_
Transforms target filenames, for example, from /oracle/ to /dup/oracle/. Note that you can specify multiple conversion pairs. You can use this parameter for those files not renamed with either SET NEWNAME and CONFIGURE AUXNAME.

    You compare String references (pointers) when you should compare String content. Use equals or compareTo, like
    if (ac.equals("Clear")) {
    // or maybe this if ac can be null
    if ("Clear".equals(ac)) {

  • Silly Questions - Upload Speed & Hardware

    Hi tere network people,
    Networking ignorant here in need of your help.
    I'm using a PowerMac G4 as a server and I have a PHP website going to share some pics with friends.
    Some lamented it can be slow to download the pictures on their side (Most, if not all, have Broadband). The picture files are not huge, but my connection is only a residential Broadband one.
    The ISP states that: "The upload speed is 256 Kilobits/Sec. Average upload rates are circa 20 Kilobytes/Sec."
    Coming to my silly questions:
    1) How much my Upload speed should be to confortably support 5-10 users at a time?
    2) Since I got a new PM G4 with a 7200 rpm HD and a Gigabit Ethernet port and a slightly faster processor, should I look at the modem/router specs? Can they affect/limit upload speed?
    If anyone can give me some basic tips, I'd be grateful.
    Cheers!
    PM G4 (PCI Graphics) - 350Mhz, 128-bit, 100 MHz, L1 Cache: 64K, L2 Cache: 512/1M, CD-Rom, 10GB Mac OS X (10.3.5)
    PM G4 (PCI Graphics) - 350Mhz, 128-bit, 100 MHz, L1 Cache: 64K, L2 Cache: 512/1M, CD-Rom, 10GB   Mac OS X (10.3.5)  

    1) How much my Upload speed should be to confortably support 5-10 users at a time?
    That's easy to calculate.
    Assume that your 10 users are on broadband connections with a 1mbps download speed. In order to fulfill everyone's demands at top speed you need a 1mpbs x 10, or 10mpbs upload speed.
    Of course, it's unlikely that everyone will download files at the same time, and it's also unlikely that they'll sustain 100% of their rated download speed, so you can probably halve that figure without any noticeable degradation, but even 5mpbs is way higher than your current 256kbps upload link.
    It's also clear that your internet connection is your bottleneck. Upgrading the server isn't going to make any difference.

  • Silly Question I know but I'm a Newbie!

    Besides Apple's own mail can the iPhone run any other email software e.g. thunderbird, etc.?
    Mark

    I'm worried that when I collect emails on my iPhone she wont be able to collect those (same) emails via her powerbook (as I will already have collected them). My thought was; if I could use say Thunderbird on my iPhone and collect mail she would be able to collect the same mail via Apple's mail on her powerbook.
    That's not how collecting mail works, really. The email client doesn't matter *at all*--it depends on whether the account is POP or IMAP and what settings are in use.
    I have a POP account that is set up to download messages and then leave them on the server (this requires setting the POP settings in both Mail desktop and Mail iPhone that way). So all my messages get downloaded both in Mail and on my phone as new, unread, messages.
    A POP account set to delete from server after downloading would cause the problem you cite. An IMAP account would download the messages everywhere, but would mark the ones you had already read as Read when your wife downloaded them, and if your wife deleted a message that wasn't for her, it would also get deleted for you.
    Google POP vs IMAP for more, and see what your email provider offers, and check the settings.
    Not such a silly question---it's a bit complicated.

    want no space between the two sentences. How do you put one
    sentence below another with no spaces? Thanks in advance. I seems

  • VirtualBox VM - silly question!

    Hi gang - apologies if this is not the correct thread.
    Just got my first iMac and we need to use one bit of Windows software, so I installed VirtualBox VM and installed a Windows XP Home build.
    Now this might seem a silly question, but does the virtual environment need anti-virus software?
    I should know the answer to this - after all I managed to set it up correctly using an ISO disk image of XP Home and added Microsoft Money 95 (yes, 95!) using a combination of ISO images, shared folders with Mac etc - so why don't I know the answer to this simple question!?
    Surely my thinking is correct - that a virus couldn't possibly affect a virtual environment, or for that matter, the Mac Host!?
    Cheers

    With VM, it depends on what you do in it. If you are surfing the web and responding to email in the VM Windows, then you might need Anti-Virus software installed.
    However, if you are just using it to get work done on a Windows-only program, the likelihood of you getting any malware is pretty slim. If you are transferring files between it and other windows users, then you have a higher chance of getting some form of malware onto your VM.
    Being that your sole purpose is managing your financial information, I would definitely not risk it and install AV on the XP VM.

  • Very silly question

    In general, can Oracle 9i Lite act as local server (that is, without both connections to the remote database and prelimary installed local full-scale Oracle Servers, such as Oracle 8i (not Lite), etc.), or it is just a client to already functioning Oracle databases?

    In general, can Oracle 9i Lite act as local server (that is, without both connections to the remote database and prelimary installed local full-scale Oracle Servers, such as Oracle 8i (not Lite), etc.), or it is just a client to already functioning Oracle databases? Not a silly question. Oracle 9i Lite WIN32 version can be installed on a PC or laptop. This version is the fully functional Personal Oracle Lite which has a useful array of rdbms type functionality (see the Docs). This db can be used as a 'local server' for clients and or apps -- just keep in mind the functionality is limited. I have not tried a non-local network connection yet, eg: from one desktop make a connection to another desktop hosting an Olite WIN32 db. This would be an interesting experiment (does Olite require connections to be same host or not ?).

  • 2 silly questions what is boot camp and do I need it? & How to transfer PC

    Okay, I've just ordered my first mac it's a 17" 1.83 refurb iMac, I've noticed a lot of stuff about boot camp, what is it? Does it allow me to transfer my old pc files to my Imac? The only files I will be transfering are pictures and music files can anyone tell me how easy or hard this will be, Thanks again

    There are no silly questions.
    Boot Camp (which is still a beta until Mac OS X 10.5 'Leopard' comes out) allows you to boot your Intel-based Mac in either Windows XP or Mac OS X. It will make an extra partition on your internal hard drive on which you can install WinXP SP2.
    To transfer you PC files onto your Mac you will not need Boot Camp. There are several ways to do it, but perhaps the easiest is to burn you files on a CD-R or DVD-R and insert the disc into your Mac.
    For your music files: start iTunes and import all music files from your CD/DVD (File menu > Import).
    For your pics: start iPhoto and import all your pictures from the CD/DVD (File menu > Import in Library). iPhoto is really the best way to keep track of all your current and future pics and share them with anyone.
    Good luck and welcome to the Mac world!

    hi
    i know this is a silly question but i have a ipod and i was wondering if there was software that could be downloaded so that u can watch videos if u dont have an ipod which has that facility
    thanks

    If you don't have an iPod video, you won't be able to watch videos.
    iPodLinux does exist; however, it is only supported on 1st, 2nd & 3rd generation iPods (the non-clickwheel models) and does not enable videos
