Pre/Post backup script online backup on VM level \Online\Servername - what is the format of datasource?

Hello, I am trying to set prebackup script for DPM 2012 R2 UR2 on Windows 2003 R2 VM with SQL server 2005 Inside.
I would like to disable SQLVssWriter during the VM backups  (in DPM backup of \Online\Servername).
What is the correct format of ScriptingConfig.xml? This is what I have tried but it did not work.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScriptConfiguration xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/dls/ScriptingConfig.xsd">
   <DatasourceScriptConfig DataSourceName="System Protection ">
     <PreBackupScript>"C:\Sources\DPMscripts\PreBackup.cmd" </PreBackupScript>
     <PostBackupScript>"C:\Sources\DPMscripts\PostBackup.cmd" </PostBackupScript>
     <TimeOut>90</TimeOut>
   </DatasourceScriptConfig>
</ScriptConfiguration>
Can you point me to a right direct?

ok, let's try:
modified a query like this:
Use dpmdb
select ComponentName,caption from tbl_RM_RecoverableObject
where Caption like cast('%Online%' as ntext)
order by cast(Caption as nvarchar)
and I get the table like this:
E473B7C4-B1EC-49DC-A54C-6A65D36C64B3  Online\LCBUILD2
Now trying the script:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <ScriptConfiguration xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
 xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/dls/ScriptingConfig.xsd">
    <DatasourceScriptConfig DataSourceName="E473B7C4-B1EC-49DC-A54C-6A65D36C64B3">
      <PreBackupScript>"C:\Sources\DPMscripts\PreBackup.cmd" </PreBackupScript>
      <PostBackupScript>"C:\Sources\DPMscripts\PostBackup.cmd" </PostBackupScript>
      <TimeOut>90</TimeOut>
    </DatasourceScriptConfig>
 </ScriptConfiguration>
I'll let you know if it works...

  • I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

    I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

    If you have been backing up on Timemachine.
    All you need to do is enter time machine... Then the rest is obvious.
    Find the iTunes folder and hit 'Restor'.
    If not the only way to get all your iTunes music back is to enter iTunes Store.
    On the right hand side you should see 'Purchased'.
    Click 'purchased' and there you have it.

  • Cannot backup iPhone 3GS. Error Message: iTunes could not backup iPhone because iPhone Disconnected. What is the fix for this problem?

    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me find a solution to my problem.
    When a backup is attempted, it starts off as if it's working, then stops and the following error message appears: "iTunes could not backup iPhone because the iPhone disconnected". But, the iPhone doesn't really disconnect! It must be some type of internal glitch.
    The iPhone is a 3GS and I have mostly pictures and contacts, two songs, a total of 33 apps. The iOS is updated (6.1.6). I do not know if this phone was ever jailbroke. I have been able to backup this phone before, but cannot now. The last backup was 9/21/13, it is now 3/2/14.
    Sorry if there is too much info, or not the correct info to find a solution!
    Also, I must say that although I am not a tekkie, I've seen many different types of various programs and I find that iTunes is not very intuitive...don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings, just my humble opinion.
    Thank You,
    Camp917

    Hey Lawrence,
    A big THANK YOU!! to you! Your suggestions worked!
    Before I changed USB ports (more on that in a sec...), I employed one of your suggestions that you gave to someone else with the same problem...and that was to clean the connector on the bottom of the phone with a soft dry tooth brush. I couldn't believe the amount of lint that came out! Especially what was found in either end...had to do some very careful picking. (Almost enough lint to knit a small sweater!!)
    Changing the USB port was the second and final step required for a successful backup. My computer is a laptop, and I did have a USB Bluetooth adapter (for another device) installed. I removed  the adapter, plugged the iPhone into that USB port, crossed my fingers...and it worked!!!
    Now if I can figure out the rest of this darn program, I might upgrade to a new iPhone!
    Again, thank you very much Lawrence!

    How are you trying to do it from your computer?  Try plugging it into your charger while connected to wifi, then either lock the screen and wait (it should backup up ever 24 hours) or go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and tap Back Up Now.

  • Hard disk crashed, restored data from tape backup, Firefox not showing bookmarks. What is the location of bookmarks & favourites to ensure I have restored the correct file?

    Hard disk crashed (XP), restored files from tape backup using Retrospect onto new Windows 7 laptop. Started up Mozilla after restore but bookmarks and favourites are missing.
    I still have access to the backup tape and files. I was wondering whether the bookmarks are kept anywhere special other than the Mozilla program file that I restored.

  • Post backup keeps running

    Hi,
    I'm using Oracle Suggested Backup on a 10g database to run once a day. It failed a previous backup and the post backup action that normally takes only 1 second to complete has been running for hours. Has anyone encountered this before? Any suggestion is sincerely appreciated. Thanks.

    I used Enterprise Manager 10g to schedule an Oracle Suggested Backup job that runs once a day at 2 am. The job has three steps: pre-backup, backup, and post-backup.
    Pre-backup succeeded this morning. Back up failed due to insufficient space allocated in flash recovery area. The last step was post-backup. Normally it would go through the post-backup step in 1 second. This time the last step has been running since 2am this morning.
    I am fairly new to this, not sure what's the best place to start to take a look at what is happening in the post-backup step. Any suggestions on where to start to solve the problem would be great. Thanks.

  • Problem during 11.1.0.7 clusteware upgrade when runnng post upgrade script

    Hello,
    I have encountered a problem whilst upgrading a 3 node RAC cluster to 11.1.0.7 patchset as follows :-
    I ran OUI against the CRS_HOME to upgrade to the 11.1.0.7 patchset. The upgrade completed successfully across all nodes.
    OUI then prompted to run the post install script (_root111.sh)_ as root user on each of the 3 nodes in the cluster, so I did the following (in SERIAL order as recommended):-
    NODE1 - ran crsctl stop crs
    ran root111.sh script
    Both the above actions completed on NODE1 with no problems
    NODE2 ran crsctl stop crs
    ran root111.sh script
    'Text file busy' error received on several files during execution of root111.sh script on NODE2 (This may have been due to the fact that CRS processes had not fully stopped when I invoked the script). The result was that the script did not complete successfully (linking , etc) and CRS did not start up afterwards.
    NODE1 - ran crsctl stop crs
    ran root111.sh script
    Both the above actions completed on NODE3 with no problems
    The result of all the above is that clusterware on NODE2 is in an inconsistent state and CSS and its dependent processes cannot start . What I need to know is how the best way to get out of this situation and complete the upgrade to 11.1.0.7 on all 3 nodes of the cluster. Can I somehow deinstall clusterware on Node2 and reinstall it again independently of Nodes1 and 3 ???
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated !
    Thanks,
    Shaun

  • Pre & Post implementation in LO Extraction?

    Hi Experts,
    What are the Pre & Post implementations to be carried in LO Extraction while transporting it to the Production?
    Thank you in advance,
    With Kind Regards,
    Kannan

    Hi Kannan,
    One of our experts answered for the same earlier,
    If your datasource is already in production, and you want to data only from today onwards for enhanced fields, i.e. historical data is not required for enhanced fields..
    1. Fix ECC down time for 20 to 30 munities
    2. Keep all objects on Qty system in ECC and BW.
    3. Run Delta laods in BW for 2 to 3 times.So with this step you can clear SMQ1 and RSA7. Check the entries in RSA7, if it is ZERO then it is fine.
    4. Move DS from ECC Qty to ECC PROD .
    5. Replicate in BW.
    6. Move all BW objects from BW Qty to BW Prod.
    7. Delete Init load in InfoPackage level (Not in ODS/Cube).
    8. Load Init without DataTransfer.
    9. Then Run Delta.
    10.Next day on wards deltas will come as usual.
    If you need Historical data also.
    1. Delete data in Cube.
    2. Fix Down Time and load Init then Delta.
    Thanks,
    RK

  • Recovering file pre-migration backup

    I am trying to recover a Themes file from inside my old iWeb application on my pre-migration MacBook Pro backup, however, in Time Machine the all pre-migration backups for the MacBook pro are shown on the right, but are grayed out and not accessible. Only backups of the new computer since the migration are available.
    Also, after migrating from the old MacBook Pro to new iMac, I chose the Time Machine option to continue the original Time Capsule backup from the previous MacBook Pro. I have tried Migration Assistant, but it does not let me just access the old backups.
    How do I access the previous MacBook Pro backups on my Time Capsule from my new computer?

    Chuck, forgive the spelling in the previous post. It was from my iPhone while I was out.

    Good question. I send the Migration Assistant to migrate from my old MacBook Pro to the new iMac via Ethernet.
    If you are actually logged into the very same account that existed on your old Mac, then I'm not sure why you can't get at the old backups. That scenario has worked just fine for me in the past.
    TM started on the new iMac and asked me if I wanted to start a new backup or continue the old one. I figured that since I had just migrated the entire user and places to the new computer I should continue with the same backup. I did not anticipate that it would not let me into old backups.
    That is a perfectly reasonable assumption, particularly now that Mac OSX permits you to do that - which was not the case before Snow Leopard. As I said, there is some reason the system thinks that is another users data and won't let you at it (Am I correct in assuming that the MBP is now gone?).
    The Migration moved everything except fine stuff such as custom Themes within iWeb. One application with in the iLife suite may have needed to be reloaded so I reloaded the quite which may have been the cause of writing over the old iWeb, so now I am just trying to go back and get the theme out of the old iWeb so to speak.
    Do you have any other accounts setup on the new Mac? Have you tried logging into one of them, mounting the TM backup disk image and then "Browse Other Backup Disk..."?

  • I had to reformat my OSX 10.5.8 and i can't restore my emails from my time machine backup from an external hard drive - only the latest (post backup) time machine back ups are available to restore. Please can any help

    I had to reformat my OSX 10.5.8 and I can't restore my emails from my time machine backup from an external hard drive - only the latest (post backup) time machine back ups are available to restore. Please can any help? I can find the mail folder in my libraries, but the Restore Button is grayed out

    OSX treats the reformatted drive as a different one; it's the same as replacing it, and the old one is no longer connected.
    See #E3 in  Time Machine - Troubleshooting to see and restore from the "old" drive.
    And, you may not want to restore via the Finder; see the blue box in #15 of  Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.

  • What is the best online backup for OS 10.5.8? And if I Reinstall OS will I have problems?

    My old Mac has had the flashing question mark file on a blue screen. I waited a couple days, turned it back on and it worked. However, in between that time I went and bought a new Macbook Air. I am relieved to have all of my pics and docs back. I need a good online backup. I downloaded BackBlaze Backup but it is taking forever and I am not sure if it's the best choice.
    My plan is to backup all of my files and then wipe my computer clean with the install disks and give my computer to my little sister. So, my question is two fold; which is best online backup and will I have any issues wiping clean the computer and doing a reinstall? For example, will all the updates still be available? What is the best thing for me to do?
    Thank you : )

    Just understand it gets pretty expensive after you exceed the free space. 2-5 GBs isn't much space.
    Basic Backup
    For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
    1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
    2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
         used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
         requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
         drive being backed up.
    3. Time Machine requires a backup drive that is at least double the
         capacity of the drive(s) it backs up.
    Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner
      2. Get Backup
      3. Deja Vu
      4. SuperDuper!
      5. Synk Pro
      6. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore.  Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
    Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined.  It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.)  You can purchase hard drives separately.  This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice.  Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu.  You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
    Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available.  You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports.  I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.)  You can find enclosures at places such as;
      1. Cool Drives
      2. OWC
      3. WiebeTech
      4. Firewire Direct
      5. California Drives
      6. NewEgg
    All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover.  Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.

  • Hi. I clicked some snaps from my iphone and post that without copying it i restored the iphone with all apps etc available from the backup taken. How do i get back the photos which were clicked earlier. Is there a way to get it back?? Please help

    Hi. I clicked some snaps from my iphone and post that without copying it i restored the iphone with all apps etc available from the backup taken. How do i get back the photos which were clicked earlier. Is there a way to get it back?? Please help

    Yes i had not taken back up before restoring it. However i was just going through some links on the net and there is a software available for MAC to retrieve such lost data. But the point is will the said software work on iphone as the OS is not MAC..
    Will have to give a try to this. If successful will share it with all. Anyone else has any idea about this please so share.

  • Patches with pre and or post patch scripts not executable -- why?

    In my frustration with update manager hangs I have had to kill processes and restart and even manually unjar files and patchadd. Sometimes I run across the error that the pre or post patch scripts are not executable. I have in the past chmod 744 and patchadd then applies the patch. This has happened several times in my latest patch update. I also had a patch ( X11) that implied a lack of entitlement but the manual patchadd showed that the real problem was a missing prerequisite patch.
    My questions are:
    1. is this lack of executable permission on scripts ( pre and post) by design and am I missing the correct procedure?
    2. missing prerequisite scripts? why?
    3. out of frustration --- IS THIS PATCHING UTILITY THE BEST THAT SUN CAN DO?

    Update Manager is sometimes a little flaky, particularly on unpatched systems (as it uses many different utilities). I would suggest that if you are having problems then you should use smpatch instead - it's not really any more difficult to use and is often much quicker.
    If a patch has a script that is not executable that is not a fault of updatemanager, but a fault with the patch itself (being archived with incorrect settings) or possibly your umask setting, which should ideally be globaly set to 0022 prior to patching to prevent problems during extraction and application.
    If updatemanager has complained about a lack of entitlement I would tend to believe that this was the case, check the contents of your entitlement file:
    # cat /var/sadm/spool/cache/entitlement/*entitlement_clientYou may be missing SolarisAllUpdates or other entitlements - please post the output.
    Sun do offer other patching tools, but what is best for one person/company may not be the best for all. There is also the possibility that you don't have it setup correctly - I would ask that you run the attached script and upload the output file generated to our [Support Uploads|http://supportuploads.sun.com/] site.

  • What is the best online backup system to use for Mac?

    What is the best online backup system to use for mac?

    By online, do you mean backup to the cloud, where you pay a monthly fee for the service to host your data?
    If this is the case, then there are a lot of services (do not know them all, but DropBox, CrashPlan, Carbonite, Mozy, SugarSync, come to mine, and that is not a complete list.
    There are also services that allow you to backup over your home network or across the internet to your own storage.  CrashPlan has this option (for free), and Transporter come to mind.  CrashPlan talks to another computer also running CrashPlan that you own or have some control (could even be a friend or relatives computer).  Transporter is hardware that you either provide some storage of your choice, or they will sell the unit with storage.
    I'm mostly a CrashPlan to my own storage user.  I backup to a Mac mini for my Mom (300 miles away) and Wife (she is local )
    Can clarify your exact desires or needs.
