Oracle Cloud Backup Module Bug

Hi,
steps to reproduce:
1. set export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8 in your .bash_profile
2. setup backup module for using Amazone S3 according to the doc
3. test your rman backups, they should work just fine
4. set export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.CL8MSWIN1251 in your .bash_profile
5. start rman backup again, your backup will fail with error pointing to some backup module libraries (don't have exact error at the hand).

Any thoughts? Before I invest in this.Let us know the results after you completing testing.

Oracle Secure Backup Module for the Amazon cloud

I want to backup a 11g r2 database in the amazon cloud s3 service. I have on premise database
11g r2 on windows 2008 r2 64 bit OS.
Supported platforms for Oracle Secure Backup Module for the cloud are Windows 32 bit. linux 32 bit and 64bit. Does that mean I cannot use this on my Windows box. Cloud module seems like java jar files which should run on Windows 32 bit as well as 64 bit.

Oracle Clouds Backup Reporting Portal

Hi,
In a Oracle documentation, they are talking about a Portal where we can monitor our backups on the Cloud
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/cloud/pdf/cloud-backup-whitepaper.pdf
I cannot find the Portal, can you help me ?
Regards
Luc

Creating this portal is on our future roadmap, so it does not exist today. It would great if you could post some of the information you would like to see in such a portal so we can consider implementing your requirements.

IPad Cloud Backup/Lockscreen bug

Hi
I had been away from home for a while and hadn't used my iPad on Wifi for a few weeks. Upon getting back home and opening the cover, I was presented with a dialog saying
iCloud Backup
This iPad hasn't been backed up in
4 weeks. Backups happen when
this iPad is plugged in, locked, and
connected to Wi-Fi.
<OK>
Fair enough, but the funny thing was, clicking OK, didn't do anything! the dialog remained on the screen, and I couldn't access any apps. Closing the smart cover just meant that when I opened, the dialog was still there. Locking the screen physically resulted in the "Swipe to unlock" being unavailable, and the same if I tried to power off the iPad. In the end I had to force-reset the iPad to fix it! I filmed the problem, video is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9436839/IMG_1549.MOV
has anyone else seen this problem?

Wasn't using a mobile device to access me.com, or Safari. I am using the *same* ID/password that my iPad was using - the same one (the only one I've ever had) on iTunes too. I am 100% sure it backed it up - it completed the iCloud initial backup process without an error message, then I went back later in the day and looked at "Last backed up: 8:37am", which was the time I completed the backup process. I checked the amount of space the backup consumed, and it wasn't much, but was something like half a gigabyte, leaving me with about 4.5gb of iCloud storage space remaining. All of it seemed to be extremely indicative of actually backing up the iPad. So at that point, instead of backing up a second time, I went ahead with the factory reset on the device and turned it back into the school when that was done.
Now I am getting no other options on this brand new (bought from Apple.com) iPad to restore from iCloud backup. This blasted me.com message is all I see. I tried entering in a wrong email into the login/password, and the error message came up there (where it did not give an error message when I logged in with the correct login/password), which seems to tell me the login/password are not the problem.
This is really enfuriating. I followed apple's rules for using iCloud as a backup, bought a brand new product of theirs, and now none of it is working and I seem to be at risk of losing my backed up photos and programs and settings from the old iPad. Really not pleased with this purchase at this point and need more help. Is there an official place I can call or go besides here?

Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module for Amazon S3

Licensing for Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module

My company is looking at moving from our internal tape backup to Oracle (Cloud) Database Backup. We have questions about costs for licensing the Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module. We have been using Oracle Secure Backup Express Edition and would like to know if there are additional API/License costs for using Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module in additional to the $33/TB per month cost listed on the Oracle Cloud Database Backup page at https://cloud.oracle.com/database_backup?tabID=1394421701419.
We have spoken with 6 different sales and technical reps at Oracle and at Oracle Cloud and none have been able to provide a clear answer for this question. We have been directed to this forum, by the staff at Oracle Cloud.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know about this tape not appearing to the OS, some other OS related documentation would help you there. This may be due to the fact that this is a removable disk storage device, rather than actual tape.
However I have checked the OSB tape support matrix and this device is not listed, so this is not supported for use with OSB.
Thanks

There is a VTL: http://mhvtl-linux-virtual-tape-library-community-forums.966029.n3.nabble.com/
really work well with OSB 10.3.0.3 64bit, the version of it, fully tested by me , is 1.2
The installation guide of it here:
mh virtual tape & library system.
Instructions assume reader is familiar with the kernel build process.
There are two sections of code to build.
- The kernel module
- The user-space daemons.
Kernel module mhvtl:
==================
1) Make sure the kernel-devel package to match your running kernel is installed.
e.g.
RedHat AS 4 & 5:
# rpm -qa|grep kernel
kernel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL
kernel-devel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL
kernel-2.6.9-5.EL
kernel-devel-2.6.9-5.EL
kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.80
SLES 9 & 10:
# rpm -qa|grep kernel
2) Extract the mhvtl source code.
# tar xvfz mhvtl-2012-04-04.tgz
3) Change directory into the kernel driver source.
# cd mhvtl-1.2/kernel/
# make
# make install
User space daemons:
===================
Pre-req for a running mhvtl
- sg3_utils (http://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg3_utils.html)
Pre-req to build/compile userspace:
- zlib-devel
* To build an RPM
===============
cp mhvtl-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz /usr/src/packages/SOURCE/
cd /usr/src/packages/SOURCE
rpmbuild -tb mhvtl-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz
<wait for rpm build to complete>
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/packages/RPMS/<cpu type>/mhvtl-1.2-z.<cpu type>.rpm
(The rpm install will create system group & accounts vtl)
- Note: For RedHat, replace 'packages' with 'redhat'
* To build from tar archive (Debian / Ubuntu):
============================================
apt-get install lsscsi
apt-get install sg3_utils
To limit damage that may occur by wayward daemons, I highly recommend creating
a group and user called 'vtl'
# /usr/sbin/groupadd --system vtl
# /usr/sbin/useradd --system -c "Vitrual Tape Library" -d /opt/vtl -g vtl -m vtl
Now build user space daemons:
From the parent directory where you extracted the source.
# cd mhvtl-1.2
Build the binaries
# make
Install the rc script into /etc/init.d/ and binaries to /usr/local/bin/
# make install
Start daemons:
/etc/init.d/mhvtl start
Test:
Note: Make sure the 'mtx' & 'lsscsi' utilities are installed
The virtual devices are attached to HBA #5 in this example.
e.g.
# lsscsi -g

Oracle Secure Backup with partitioned SL3000

A Client has a partitioned SL3000 tape library with two Access Expansion Modules, T10000D drives, LTO6 drives and dual robotics.
Three Partitions - one for SAMFS including one AEM - this partition works fine.
Two partitions created for OSB - one for LTO6 and media and the other for T10000D and media due to mixed media not supported in OSB.
OSB 12.1 has been implemented, device configuration has been completed and verified. Library inventory completes successfully, when a test backup is started no media mounts to the tape drives. MTX utility for Linux has been implemented for test purposes - successful mounts using MTX was performed - a library inventory was then done using OSB and completed successfully identifying the media mounted in the drive that was initiated by MTX, a successful unload was then done using OSB.
We are unable to mount media using OSB.
Here is a output of devdump from OSB:

ADF Mobile on Oracle Cloud

Hi,
according to the unsupported features list on http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/CSJSU/feat_implement.htm#CEGBGCCE
it states that
- ADF Mobile
is unsupported and there is no applicable alternative.
What does it actually mean ? I don't see a direct relation from ADF Mobile to cloud computing.
Does it mean that
- ADF Mobile Apps are not allowed to consume WebServices on Oracle Cloud?
- Oracle Cloud does not allow to deploy WebServices which could be consumed by ADF Mobile Apps?
- Since ADF Mobile works from Version 11.1.2.3+ and Oracle Cloud is on 11.1.1.6 ADF Mobile is not supported?
- Or is it just a documentation bug?
Thanks for any hints,
Andreas Koop
PS: Also posted on ADF Forum: ADF Mobile on Oracle Cloud
Edited by: Andreas Koop on Jan 9, 2013 10:59 PM

Hi Andreas, thanks for raising this.
ADFmobile as you know is a framework to built applications that run on phone/tablet devices. They can absolutely invoke/consume web services running on Oracle Cloud including web services hosted on ADF applications running in Oracle Java Cloud Service. There is a section on just this in ADFMobile documentation: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35521_01/doc.111230/e24475/cloud.htm#CHDEGCIF
We will update the documentation you pointed to so we remove the confusion.
thanks,

BT Cloud, another curious bug

Another curious bug to add the the BT Cloud chamber of horrors.
BT Cloud somehow decided on the Web Interface that my main device contained two separate top levels, 'D' and 'd'.
Most things I had backed up from my D drive showed up under 'D', with just a few under 'd'.
On the PC client, everything showed up under 'd'.
The extra 'd' was a bit irritating on the web interface, and none of the files saved in it was significant, and so I decided to delete it in the web interface.
Result:
1: 'd' correctly deleted in the web interface (they seem to have fixed the bug where you couldn't delete folders in the web interface)
2: 'd' deleted from what shows up in the PC client. As the PC client never showed anything under 'D' but everything under 'd', when I look at my main device it now shows 'This folder does not contain any files.'
3: All the files still showing up correctly under 'D' on the web interface
4: PC client still knows what it is trying to back up from the D drive:
- the auto-backup folders show up correctly when I look in 'Add to Backup' (usability bug: 'Add to Backup' doesn't admit to what path it thinks they are from)
- it correctly backs up new files added to these auto-backup folders
- it still knows about the backed up files if I look under 'All Files'; and remembers correctly what directory they came from. (usability bug: but not easy for the user to see what directory they came from)
5: No files actually deleted from my PC.
I don't trust BT Cloud at all yet, so I am only experimenting and waiting till it is ready as a backup solution. Meanwhile, all my files are backed up elsewhere. I didn't trust BT Cloud not to make an even bigger silly and delete lots of my original files; I trust it even slightly less now.
BT Cloud still has the makings of something that might be useful eventually, so I still keep hoping and trying ....

Hi Sjtp,
Thanks for the feedback. I will make sure the cloud team get this useful info.

Monitor Oracle Secure Backup by 12c

Hi all,
Is there any way to monitor oracle secure backup by cloud control 12c.
regards,
Utp

The steps are as you reported in your initial thread:
I have tried to show Oracle Secure Back in my EM as described in its Admin Guide
a. Navigate to the ORACLE_HOME/hostname_SID/sysman/config directory
and open the emoms.properties file in a text editor.
b. Set osb_enabled=true and save the file.
c. Stop the Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control console as follows:
emctl stop dbconsole
d. Restart the Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control console as follows:
emctl start dbconsole
But after this setting i am not able to see any thing in my EM.
If this doesn't work, then please file a TAR
