Questions on Archiving

Hi All,
Got some questions from customer on SOA solution including B2B,
1)Does your service have the ability to archive inbound and outbound messages for at least 90 days?
2)What is the turnaround time to retrieve archived data?
3)Does your service allow for configuration of archiving options?
4)Is there a maintenance window required for your archive and/or backup strategy?
5)What is the level of granularity/criteria for restore from archive? (e.g. single message, date range, trading partner, document format).
It would be helpful if I could get any reply..

1)Does your service have the ability to archive inbound and outbound messages for at least 90 days?
A: Yes. B2B makes use of Oracle DB for its instance store. Oracle DB archival can be used for archiving for any amount of time.
2)What is the turnaround time to retrieve archived data?
A: Please refer to DB Archival feature.
3)Does your service allow for configuration of archiving options?
A: Please refer to DB Archival feature.
4)Is there a maintenance window required for your archive and/or backup strategy?
A: Please refer to DB Archival feature.
5)What is the level of granularity/criteria for restore from archive? (e.g. single message, date range, trading partner, document format).
A: Please note that the criteria is not based on B2B specific details. It will be generic like date range. B2B specific criteria based archival is a new feature being worked upon for next release.
Thanks

Subtitling (question about archived material)

OK, I've looked through the archived questions about how to subtitle...and I just want to make sure I do this right. If I do subtitles in DVDSP, do I write them up in a text file first and then import them, or just type them in manually?
If I do subtitles in FCP I just use something like Title3D and type them in manually...creating a whole buncha overlay (title) clips, right?
Forgive the redundency, I know how subtitles are supposed to look, just trying to find the best (and least time consuming) way to produce them.
FYI...the subtitles will be of a person from Spain speaking English (it's kinda hard to understand him since he talks fast and has a heavy Spanish accent).
Thanks, all, in advance.

subtitling (question about archived material)< </div>
So you are trying put subtitles on your archived material?
If you use the subtitle track in DVDSP, the text will be switchable by the user. (This is made more complicated by several factors like your desire to make the subtitles permanent or uncontrollable by the user. These are options you can control by programming the DVDSP project. Not difficult but very confusing.)
If you use a text tool in FCP, the titles will be permanently burned into the video image.
If you use some fo the more sophisticated (read: Expensive) subtitling tools for FCP, you can export a caption-compliant file that can be printed to videotape or mastered to DVD. If you own one of these products, you are at the complete mercy of their manual's writer.

A question about archive and install

Recently my system crashed due to a faulty OS instal.
So, I hauled my G4 to the mac store and they resoved the problem for me and told me to do a archive and instal, and even gave me instructions.
Everything was going fine untill it came the time to choose which directory to install to... I clicked on my hard drive and a dialouge box popped up saying that it couldn't install older versions of the files over newer versions....
So now I've hit a dead end.
How can I continue the install?

WanderingAimlessly:
Do you currently have a functioniing OS on your HDD?
Do you have your computer backed up?
If your answers are "no" to the first question and "yes" to the second, I suggest you go a completer reformat, zero all data and install.
Post back with your responses, and we will decide where to go from there.
Good luck.

Recovery question using archive log

HPUX 11X
Oracle 10.2.0.2
I have a standby database that the customers want to test the ability to fail over. They also want to test the data integrity of the standby once it's brought on line as the primary.
I've already told the customer that any writes that they do on the standby during the test time WILL be lost. I plan on doing a incomplete recovery back to a specific sequence number / archive log when the tests are complete.
My plan is to take note of the current sequence number just before I bring the standby live. When all is said and done, I was going to do a recover back to the sequence number one PRIOR to that one. Then when I place the db back in standby mode, it will sync back up to the primary.
What I need to know is if this is a good or a bad idea. Should I plan on doing it differently and for what reason.
Thanks! :)

Use flashback database to recover the former primary database to a new standby.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/scenarios.htm#i1049997
Therefore the changes made on standby won't be lost (unless you want to lose them).
If your databases do not have Flashback Database feature enabled, you can use incomplete recovery instead.
I think Flashback Database should be your first option.

Hi,
I do new tests it's very strange.
BACKUP ARCHIVELOG command is not obeying the policy of archivelog.
You can open a SR on MOS. (to check bugs)
I reproduce the same test and the result was the same, it seems that this is a bug.

RMAN> list archivelog all;
specification does not match any archived log in the repositoryOracle Docs Says:
The BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ... DELETE INPUT command deletes archived log files after they are backed up.
This command eliminates the separate step of manually deleting archived redo logs.
With DELETE INPUT, RMAN deletes only the specific copy of the archived log chosen for the backup set.
With DELETE ALL INPUT, RMAN deletes each backed-up archived redo log file from all log archiving destinations.
As explained in "Configuring an Archived Redo Log Deletion Policy",
the BACKUP ... DELETE INPUT and DELETE ARCHIVELOG commands obey the archived redo log deletion policy
for logs in all archiving locations. For example, if you specify that logs should only be deleted when backed
up at least twice to tape, then BACKUP ... DELETE honors this policy.http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmbckba.htm#BRADV89524
But in ours case it's not honors this policy.
Only with the FORCE command should this happen. But it is not our case.
Oracle Docs:
If FORCE is not specified on the deletion commands,
then these deletion commands obey the archived log deletion policy.
If FORCE is specified, then the deletion commands ignore the archived log deletion policy.http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10643/rcmsynta010.htm#RCMRF113
Alternatively you can do the following:
Set the commands separately.
Check this:
RMAN> run {
2> backup archivelog all not backed up 2 times ;
3> delete archivelog all backed up 2 times to disk;
4> }

Question about archived logs

Hi!
I wonder if there is possibility to configure archiving policy in a way:
set one destination (/arch1/oracle) as primary, and another (/arch2/oracle) as optionally.
redo Logs will be copied to /arch2/oracle only if /arch1/oracle fails, but after it will be available again, files will be moved (or copied) from /arch2/oracle to /arch1/oracle. Anybody tried to store backup files in that way? is it possible? I tried various combinations of log_archive_dest_n and log_archive_dest_state_n parameters, but it won't work in a way I expected.
Message was edited by:
wojaczek

it's about limitation of disk place on server where DB operates. Archived logs are stored on NFS filesystem, but time to time there are some problems with remote filesystem. In such cases DB will hang and manual change of arch log destination to local FS is needed. But this destination could not be set permanently because of disk space limitations.
When i set destination 1 as mandatory and 2 as optionally db hangs when arc can't use mandatory destination.
Setting both destinations as optionally gives finally inconsistency and storing files on local fs, what is not desirable

Question about archive destination.

Hi All,
When we set the archived destination to this parameter log_archive_dest like:
SQL>alter system set LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_.. = 'location=/archivelogpath reopen';
Could you help me to know about 'reopen' keyword here. Please help me know, what does it mean and whats the use of it. I have failed to get this in oracle documentation.
Best Regards,
Michel.

From the documentation:
Rearchiving to a Failed Destination
Use the REOPEN attribute of the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter to specify whether and when ARCn should attempt to rearchive to a failed destination following an error. REOPEN applies to all errors, not just OPEN errors.
REOPEN=n sets the minimum number of seconds before ARCn should try to reopen a failed destination. The default value for n is 300 seconds. A value of 0 is the same as turning off the REOPEN attribute; ARCn will not attempt to archive after a failure. If you do not specify the REOPEN keyword, ARCn will never reopen a destination following an error.
You cannot use REOPEN to specify the number of attempts ARCn should make to reconnect and transfer archived logs. The REOPEN attempt either succeeds or fails.
When you specify REOPEN for an OPTIONAL destination, the database can overwrite online logs if there is an error. If you specify REOPEN for a MANDATORY destination, the database stalls the production database when it cannot successfully archive. In this situation, consider the following options:
Archive manually to the failed destination.
Change the destination by deferring the destination, specifying the destination as optional, or changing the service.
Drop the destination.
When using the REOPEN keyword, note the following:
ARCn reopens a destination only when starting an archive operation from the beginning of the log file, never during a current operation. ARCn always retries the log copy from the beginning.
If you specified REOPEN, either with a specified time the default, ARCn checks to see whether the time of the recorded error plus the REOPEN interval is less than the current time. If it is, ARCn retries the log copy.
The REOPEN clause successfully affects the ACTIVE=TRUE destination state. The VALID and ENABLED states are not changed.

Toast 10 Question (AVCHD Archive)

Sorry is this is in the wrong place but I really didn't know where to post it!
Hi, I'm trying to do a AVCHD archive of my camcorder, its a Sony HDR-SR8 PAL model.
I purchased Toast 10 Pro for the sole reason of doing this. When I connect my camcorder Toast recognizes it and says it'll take ten DVD's to archive what's already in my camcorder.
When I insert a blank DVD and hit record for the first time I got the following message:
"could not record the disc because of a mac os error result code = 50"
Then when I tried again I got a message saying "data will span 0 (zero) discs" and when I hit ok nothing happens.
This is so confusing why its not working and I would really appreciate any help to solve the problem.
Let me know if you need any more info and thank you to anyone that can help

Burning using DVD+R's

Sorry, mate. I dont blame you for looking for an answer wherever you can get it.
I think the answer is, that its roxio toast and you will not get an answer. I have tried searching and searching for roxio errors to no avail. Its not an apple program, sorry to say and really should be offered with a trial.
My example: I have roxio toast 9, and all I wanted to to was burn the AIC files from iMovie into a blu-ray disc. Fretted for months, but the error would show up ALWAYS at the end of the encode (after some 6 hours of encoding.) My only theory is that there was a limit on the number of AIC files I could add. I dont know. But I found nothing in the documentation or from users. Just a theory.
Then toast 10 came out. Guess what. The same process I tried with 9 works every time.
I see posts all the time with people trying to get help, and either no one answer.
1. Maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling.
2. Perhaps you can find a work-around where you break up the content yourself and try a smaller archive attempt. Perhaps move all of your .mts files off the camera onto a harddrive, except for ONE clip. See if it archives properly.
3. If the camera takes a memory stick, then record a 20 sec clip and see if that imports with the same settings.
4. Search the first few clips on the camera. Do they still play back thoroughly? Perhaps one is corrupt and deleting it fixes the problems. You never know, one of the preview thumbnails could be corrupt and toast depends on that file to start its index.
5. Try a different brand of disk.
See here. The problem is common. http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-operating-system/50779-mac-os-error-result -code-50-a.html

Question about Archiving Mailboxes

I keep almost all of my mail On My Mac > Personal Mail, then divided into subfolders beneath that. I back up to Time Machine.
This morning I noticed one of those sub folders was missing, and had to go back more than 24 hours to recover it. Not sure how it went missing, but it did.
I am wondering what is the diffference between using Archive Mailbox under the Mailbox menu and keeping the messages in folders On My Mac?
I think my mailboxes are just getting too darn big, try as I might to contain them. I'm a mail hoarder.
Thanks for any insight

How you backup and what you backup to is all about taking a calculated risk. In other words, what's it worth to you?
Ultimately, whatever method you choose, I think redundancy is the most important factor. It doesn't matter if you have half-a-dozen backups, if they're all in the same place and the building burns down, they're all gone.
Yes, hard drives are flimsy and fail, but you can easily duplicate a backup and store them in separate locations; then, make regular maintenance checks to see if they're viable. The probability of two backups failing simultaneously is astronomically low; the probability of one backup failing is astronomically high. For the average person, most dedicated backup systems are too far out of reach, pricewise and from an infrastructure standpoint. Duplicating hard drives is pretty crude, but it's cheap so long as you exercise due diligence.

Questions about archive

Hope anyone can help me understand this…
I found there are various kinds of archive feature in Exchange or Outlook. And I need help to choose the appropriate method to do archive in my Exchange.
Thanks

Hi David,
Exchange Server 2010 has a new built-in archiving solution, which lets you create a personal archive mailbox within the Exchange organization.
You can use the Enable-Mailbox "xxx" -Archive cmdlet to enable the personal archive for a user's mailbox.
What's more, here is an article for your reference.

How do I archive iDVD project? Best/Smallest size?

Hi,
I need to know the best method to save a movie project that was made in imovie, then burned to DVD using iDVD. I want to save a copy of the finished product for archival purposes on an external drive. I want to be able to pull up this archive and be able to burn another copy of it to DVD or just be able to view the archived movie on my powerbook (directly from the external. I want it to be saved in the smallest size. I am ruling out saving the imovie project, as that is usually up to 12 or 14gb. I tried to save the iDVD project that was burned to a disc, but I wasn't able to view that again, or burn it to another dvd disc? Would it make sense for me to edit the project like always in imovie, open iDVD, and save it as a disc image first, and then burn it to DVD-R whenever I need a copy? And if I do this, is the disc image file going to be able to be viewed on the powerbook, without using the burned DVD? Also, I read on here that the iDVD doesn't have an option to burn to disc image? I know Toast Titanium does. I have that also. But, can I edit the movie in imovie, and then just open Toast Titanium and use it to make a disc image? And then at a later date, call up the disc image with Toast and just use Toast to burn a DVD? Also, I should note that I will need to burn 2 imovie projects to the DVD (they are 1 hr long t.v. episodes each) I need to put 2 episodes on each DVD. I know how to burn them from imovie directly to iDVD, but then I am back to the whole question of archiving them in something other than imovie projects or iDVD projects?????????
Thanks to anyone who can advise
-Tom

Oh my, where to begin.
If you think you will ever want to change your saved iDVD project (change the menu, add more videos) then keep the Project file. That is what iDVD can read. After you've burned a DVD (or made a disc image) with iDVD there still is an encoded MPEG inside the Project file. So you don't need to save the iMovie, just the iDVD project file (or project folder if your version has more than just a file).
A disc image is the same thing as having the video DVD written to your hard drive. iDVD doesn't open a DVD; nor will it open a disc image. When you mount a disc image (double-click on it) there will be a new icon on your desktop. If you open DVD player, it will play the movie from the mounted disc image the same as if it was playing a DVD disc. You may need to choose Open VIDEO_TS in the DVD player File menu and select the VIDEO_TS folder in the mounted image in order to play the video. If nothing appears on the screen, press the space bar to start playback.
Disc images are burned in Toast using the Image File option in the Copy window. You can burn one disc image to one DVD.
What I recommend is that you add your multiple movies to your one iDVD project before saving a disc image or burning a DVD. iDVD 4 can handle up to 2 hours of video per DVD, although I think it is best to keep at near 90 minutes or less for best quality.
As for saving a copy for future use: you need to save the iDVD project itself if you want to re-use it in iDVD. If not, you can save a disc image which is the same as burning another DVD except it is on the hard drive. By the way, Toast can make a disc image from your burned DVD. Insert the DVD, select it in the Toast Copy window and choose "Save as Disc Image" from the Toast File menu.

Archive a pdf document in a folder in Business Workplace

Good Morning!
I've a question about archiving a pdf document in a folder in the business workplace.
I want to the it with the fm SO_OBJECT_INSERT.
But here is a problem. I upload the pdf with gui_upload into the table lt_pdfbin.
This table has the type solix_tab.
But in the fm the table content needs a table of the type soli.
What can i do?Are there other possibilities to archive the document in an folder?
Thanks for your help!

Data: lt_pdfbin type solix_tab stands higher in the code, but it is there
It works...that something will be archived into my folder, but not a pdf document
With the object type 'RAW' there are only chinese symbols...hmm
With 'PDF' there is an error, with 'BIN' i can't see anything
Are there other opportunities?

Outlook 2013 cached mode "mail to keep offline" - does this setting affect archive mailbox or Office 365 hosted archive mailbox?

I have an Exchange 2013 Hybrid environment with Exchange 2007 in coexistance mode as well as Office 365. We are hosting the majority of our Exchange accounts on-premise (migrating them from 2007), and most (soon to be ALL) Archive mailboxes in Office 365.
I have through Group policy set the policy "Select Cached Exchange Mode sync settings for new profiles" to 6 months. This works fine for the contents of the regular mailbox, but the setting is NOT being set at all for the Online Archive mailbox,
whether or not it is hosted on-premise or in Office 365. Is this the expected behavior?
Another question: Is it possible to have the regular mailbox in cached mode and the archive in Online mode or vice versa?

Hi,
The key to your questions is: Archive mailboxes are online only, they cannot be cached for offline viewing, so you can keep your regular mailboxes offline(In Cached Exchange Mode) or Online, but cannot switch Archive mailboxes to Offline.
The whole idea of the archive mailbox is to keep your "online" mailbox with recent / important mails small and accessible on and offline. The archive mailbox is intended to store older / less important emails which are not neccessary to access immediately.
One important reason of archive mailbox is to prevent the growth of offline files.

Archiving-

Hi Gurus,
I have a question on Archiving billing documents. We have Revenue Recognition active in our system.
During archiving system checks if successive document is complete/cleared before archiving the document.
But in case of rev recognition, before archiving a billing document, system does not check if revenue is recognized.
Can you suggest a way that system archives only billing document which has revenue recognized.
Thanks
Nidhish

Hi Nidhish,
during archiving system will execute the program "S3VBRKPTS"
check with your ABAPer, if he can accommodate any code to check the revenue recognition in the check list before writing archiving of billing documents
also check transaction VORR transaction code and explore the check box Check Accounts field it may also helpful
thanks
santosh
