Oracle Third Party Backup tools

What are some third party backup programs that people are using with oracle these days? Also when using third party backup tools, do these tools shutdown the database while backing up? Does the Archive Log mode need to be enable as well? Not big on Oracle so simple answers would work.
thanks.

I wouls suggest to go with RMAN. it's best tool and free.....Best third party backup tool is BMC SQL Backtrack.

Error with third party backup tool

Hello Experts,
We are using Veritas netbackup to take backups.
Veritas backup is showing error 6 after running 7 different successful streams and when I checked from SAP (DB12) it shows successful backup of the system.
Can you pls explain why netbackup is showing error 6?
Also what files exactly get copied in offline backup? Does it include redo log files>
Thanks in Advance.

Third party reporting tools

I am trying to use a third party reporting tools.
I have found one I like from Inetsoft.
The problem I am having is running the sample code they provide. I keep getting the error of method not found in my package.class file. They have provide sample.java files, I am not sure how to get jdev to see the method.
here is the .java code:
package smart_package;
import inetsoft.sree.*;
import inetsoft.report.*;
public class SimpleReplet extends BasicReplet
public ReportSheet createReport(RepletRequest req) {
StyleSheet report = new StyleSheet();
report.addText("This is a very simple Replet!");
return report;
here is the event code:
<event name="print_report" >
<method class="smart_package.SimpleReplet" method="createReport"/>
</event>
my question is why do I get this error:
Warning(43,73): report.uix: Parsing error, line 43, column 73: Could not find method createReport in smart_package.SimpleReplet
also if anyone has a suggest on a third party reporting tool let me know.
thanks

I think that I figured out my own problem. my problem was method not found in class.
here is the solution:
I need a method with a EventResult to start the process. and then that method would call the third party method.
package smart_package;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
import java.io.*;
import inetsoft.report.*;
import inetsoft.report.io.*;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.BajaContext;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.Page;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.event.EventResult;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.event.PageEvent;
public class PrintReport
public PrintReport()
// HERE IS THE KEY!!!
public static EventResult StartPrint(BajaContext context,
Page page,
PageEvent event)
createReport();
return null;
public static void createReport()
try
StyleSheet report = new StyleSheet();
report.addText("This is a simple report");
PreviewView previewer = Previewer.createPreviewer();
previewer.print(report);
previewer.pack();
previewer.setVisible(true);
previewer.setExitOnClose(true);
catch(Exception ignore) {}
my event on the uix page:
<event name="print_report" >
<ctrl:method class="smart_package.PrintReport" method="StartPrint" />
</event>

Third party backup software support for dataguard configurations

Any Oracle document about the subject?
I would be interested in an answer about backupexec 2010 r2 in particular, because reading the manual for its oracle agent there is information about Oracle/RMAN and RAC support, but nothing about Dataguard integration, that could be a value added.
Anyone using third party backup agents in a Dataguard configuration?
Interested in version 11gR2 on Linux.
Thanks,
Gianluca

yes, you should be able to use the full backup taken in middle and use the rest of the log backups taken afterwards to restore the database.while I do not use TSM, we use QUEST(DELL) LITESPEED, that takes full backup once a day and log backups
every 15mins.
if someone accidentally takes full backup in the middle of day with out 'copy only',
log sequence will break and successive log backups depend on this full back up.
while this should be prevented from happening in first place, you can still restore from native full backup and then apply log backups taken from third party taken after the native Full backup.
if this happens, I would restore the FULLBACKP with NORECOVERY using NATIVE SQL and then use lite speed syntax to restore the log backups.Remember, native sql cannot read third party formatted backups(atleast litespeed), thats why I restore the full backup
using native sql, since it was taken with native sql backup and log backups using litespeed syntax.
Hope it Helps!!
Thanks, well it was just a theory discussion we had about the issue. But none of us could find info on the internet easy to prove our point :) Thanks.

EP integration with third party BI tools

Hi,
I was looking for information and pointers on EP integration with third party BI tools like Business Objects etc. Would be grateful.
Thanks,
Madhu

Thanks. We have a full fledged Business Objects reporting environment. My question is: As a beginner in the EP space, I would like to understand how to treat the Business Objects environment as one of the content providers for the Enterprise Portal? Are there any documents or manuals that talk about the integration of EP with Business Objects? I know the question is too broad, but any pointers would be useful.

Third party backup software, how is the log sequence working?

Me and a colleague had a discussion about how third party software and full backups locally on the SQL works together.
If we use TSM that do full backups and then logbackups every hour in between for example.
If I between the two full backups from TSM accidently do a "non copy-only" full backup do I then also break the whole log sequence backup from then and untill the next TSM backup is?
Or can I use the full backup from my mistake and then take the log backups from TSM that occured after that fail and restore the database?
I guess this depends on the third party backup software, but in my mind it should work but according to him it doesn't.
Try to "paint" how I mean:
I = full TSM backup
- = log TSM
F = my fail backup full but not copy only.
I---F-------I
^ is where I would want to restore with both my full one and the logs from TSM. Hope you understand what I mean.

yes, you should be able to use the full backup taken in middle and use the rest of the log backups taken afterwards to restore the database.while I do not use TSM, we use QUEST(DELL) LITESPEED, that takes full backup once a day and log backups

Third Party Ticketing Tool integration with solman service desk scenario

Hi,
I need any guidance on integration Of third Party ticketing tools like OVSD with the SAP Solution Manager Service Desk Scenario.
Regards,
Kaustubh.

Hi Maheshwar,
What I am trying to do is, try to maintain the data like,,
Caller ID-- sender
Assignment of workgroup--
Search Code--
Priority--
and description--
now some of these are constants that we need not determine every time.
but my question is, can we maintain these as a set of parameters in the method definitionunder parameters tabjust similar to MAIL_HEADER...which is displayed in the mail alert.
we already have a scenario maintained in the HPSD where it reads the mail picks up specific content based on key words, and creates a ticket.
and If we can maintain these by modifying the method, then where can we maintain the multiple data/options for this
And also please send me what were the steps u have done.
U used a Z method or customized the Function module??
Bcz in my case I think I will have to do both..
Regards,
Kaustubh.

Third Party WCM tools integrated into SAP EP7

Hi All,
I am wondering if anybody has experiences with integrating a third party WCM tool with EP7 for intranet-style content in the portal, and whether an assessment versus Web Page Composer has been made? I have looked at Web Page Composer but am interested in seeing what best-of-breed third party offerings are certified for integration to EP7 and how these compare.
Points will be awarded for useful responses.
Regards
John

Hi John,
I've seen btexx easyWCM in some projects and although I do not like it, many users are quite content with the features.
Afaik it is certified for SAP EP 7.0, have a look at it.

Christian

Oracle Third Party Tools and Oracle Database

Hi
There are ample third party tools that can be used with an Oracle Database. But does Oracle have some support programs (recommendations which tools are best along with Oracle Database).
So sort of link or document would be a great help.
Adith

Oracle isn't responsible if you have a bad experience with a third party tool (i.e. the tool doesn't do what you want it to do as well as you'd like it to do it). If the database is the source of the problem, Oracle support is happy to help diagnose and resolve the problem, though you may need to provide a test case that doesn't involve the third party tool. It's certainly not a violation of any license agreements to use a third party tool unless you allow the tool to do something you're not allowed to do (i.e. access the AWR repository if you haven't licensed that access).

Ability to use external third party ETL tools removed?

Hi,
have just been looking the possibility of using a third party tool (Informatica, Business Objects Data Integrator) with NW2004s.
It appears that there is no longer a suitable source systyem type or at least there isn't in my Ramp Up system (SP7).
Does anyone know if the functionality required for this has been retired? Or is it still there behind the scenes and just needs to be used in a different way.
Many thanks,
Mike

Hi Andreas,
thanks for this.
It used to be that you needed an RFC destination from BW to the third party ETL RFC server, and a dedicated Source System for this and then the BAPI loader was used.
Not sure if I understand how this will be achieved with the 3.5x data sources as aren't these SAP only?
In the External Systems area of the source systems tab, there are some entries for:
RA 115     Oracle Applications 11i
LF 205     Tealeaf 2.05B
PD 020     SAP xPD
So it sounds like I create these as a SAP source system having previous done the RFC config?
Thanks for your help and a little more would be great!
Regards,
AB
