Random OMF's Exist but not Active...

After a full database incomplete recovery 2 days ago, we have 3 Oracle-Managed Files hanging out in a directory that didn't exist before. Our structure looks like this:
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/ctl01
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/ctl02
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/ctl03
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/system
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/archive
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/temp
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data01
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data02
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data03
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data04
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data05
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data06
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data07
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data08
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data09
However, these OMF's exist here:
/opt/oradata/ITNETDB/data03/ITNETDB/datafile
and are titled:
o1_mf_gaming_p_4gqn22m8_.dbf
o1_mf_gaming_p_4gqn24fc_.dbf
o1_mf_maintena_556mn5my_.dbf
... and are actively being touched every few minutes. However, they do not exist in dba_data_files or in v$datafile.
I'm wondering what we can do with these so they're not "active" as they appear now. We would like to get rid of them.
We do not use OMF's in our environment.
I believe these may have been created in an attempt to move MISSING... files during our first attempt at a recovery but all files should have been discarded when the full restore and recovery was completed.
Thanks ahead of time.

Thanks - the lsof command was helpful. 2 of the 3 datafiles are active as shown below. The related processes have also been grepped. It looks like the "...gaming..." datafiles are online... but as I mentioned before, they're not in v$datafile or dba_data_files, yet they're still being touched. How can we safely remove them?

  • MATERIAL DOES NOT EXISTS OR NOT ACTIVATED

    Dear Experts,
    I want to change Material Master data. I have downloaded the material list from data base table MARC plant data for materials.
    i want to  extend the material master view. but system is issuing the error message - Material dose not exists or not activated. Also it is not showing the material in MM03 & MM60.
    But in data base table MARC it is showing the material code with details.

    Hi Kiran,
    The material type must be HAWA, well you would be able to get this info, if an entry in MARA exists. So from where are you getting the material type?
    Anyways just check this, enter the material nos. in MM01 & select Basic Data 1 & click create, check what message you get, should provide you the clues. Also check how this material was created. It could be possible that it was created via some custom program.
    Creat the view & then you will be able to resolve the issue. Check the above & revert if you face any issues.
    Regards,
    Vivek

    Easiest way to solve this is to check the mara table in R/3. try and find your material there. If its not there, then it either has been manually created or loaded from a different source system. Check all the source systems if anyone has loaded them. Then check your cubes and ODSs if you can find any transactional data for these materials. If yes, then there is a possiblity that maybe it was created  to correct  a failed load. You should then identify the document and compare the same on in R/3.
    If this material is used in any transaction data, then you can simply delete it. RSA1-> Find the infoobject(characteristic)-> Maintain master data-> Give the material nos-> select the row and press the delete button.

  • When I open logic express 8 with eyetv open but not active and i close logic express 8 and make eyetv active it won't show closed captioning even though closed captioning is turned on

    when I open logic express 8 with eyetv open but not active and i close logic express 8 and make eyetv active eyetv won't show closed captioning even though closed captioning is turned on.  When I totally close eyetv and reopen eyetv and open a live tv window the closed captioning comes back.  I never noticed this with os leopard, Just after i installed os snow leopard.  All software is up to date only I think, thanks to apple they droped support for logic express.  Thanks for any suggestions.

    Does toggling CC off & back on bring it back?

    If Find My Phone has not been activated on the iPhone before being lost there is nothing more that you can do to locate it with iCloud.  The only option is physical search for it.
    If you have an idea of the location, call the iPhone and see if you can hear it ring.

    You cannot; it's intentionally disabled to guard against accidental file loss. If you press Option when pasting the files, they'll be moved instead of copied.

  • Web service transported but not active in QA environment

    Hi all,
    In order to support a template document i've created a web service using the web service tool. All is working fine in DEV and all has been successfully transported to QA environment (I think). The web service objects have been included in the transport using transaction CRMOST_TRANSPORT and I see the web service in the web service tool in QA.
    Problem is that the web service is not active. In the web service tool I see the web service and see that the Active status is still available to be selected. When I select it I get the following errors:
    - Object type does not exist
    - Not possible to get data for service object
    - Activation cannot be performed in this client:
    - Details Changes to Repository objects are not permitted in this client
    I read somewhere that you have to do 'after import functions' for web services but don't know what!? Is it simply a matter of opening the client in QA and reactivating the web service in the Web Service Tool?
    Thanks,
    Patrick

    Hi Patrick ,
    Ihave a question.
    I created a webservice through CRM 7.0 Web Service Tool
    ie we went to Component WS_DESIGN_TOOL and executed the component and we Launched the tool ,
    using tool we created a Web service for Sales Order, Due to missing of some settings I guess it didnt ask for a Transport request and it went and saved in an ' Local Object'.
    Could you please help in explaining as what steps we need to configure to make sure that the web service goes and sits in a Transport which is required in moving it to QA System.

  • Smart form exists but not recognised by application

    Hi all,
    We are testing SAP ERP 6.0 and migrated a smart form into our client. The form can be displayed in SMARTFORMS and also shows as "active". I also generated the form. However, when running the dunning program, I get an error message like:
    "Form XXXXX language EN is not active and has no errors"
    The long text says that the form may not exist. In my legacy client it works fine.
    Does anyone know what may be missing to ensure that the smartform is recognised?
    Thanks
    Rene

    Hi Rene
    I am facing the same problem
    I have implemented event 1720 and function but F150D does not call this event and does not recognise smartform
    this is what comes up
    Form ZFSCD_DUNNING_TG language EN is not available in client 220 Message no. TD131 Diagnosis You want to display a form which does not exist. System Response If the form does not exist in the specified language in the current client, the form which was used for printing is displayed by accessing another client. The search is thus graded as follows: - Current client, form in specified language, status irrelevant - Current client, form in original language, status active - Client '000', form in specified language, status active - Client '000', form in original language, status active Procedure You can obtain a list of the form available in the current client using the function 'Find' in the initial screen of the form maintenance. Here you can also output a list of the forms in your current client or another client, using the menu option 'Utilities -> Client comparison'. Did this but still not working After executing F150 it is not printing dunning letter as it showing Forms for MAHNR: 'TG', RBUKM: '2200', KOART: 'D' do not exist (T047E) Thanks
    looks like it recognises SAPscript as default and does not change its form to smartfor
    please help how to make it happen
    thanks in advance

  • Condition record exist but not set in SO

    Hi SDN Team,
    I have a problem.  Where in the sales order for the Discount condition type condition record where already exist in diffferent validity period.
    EG
    ZAJ1 discount condition type - with the same key combination with different valididity period
    EG:
    ZAJ1 - 27.01.2009 to 15.02.2009
    ZAJ1 - 16-02-2009 to 15-03-2009
    The reason is not set for the ZAJ1 condition in the Sales Order is due to the sales order was created before the pricing condition record validity datet.  Sales order where created on 11.02.2009.  But the condition record where valid from 16.02.2009  that is the reason the condition record was not set in the sales order.
    Based on this explanation user agreed and the call was closed. 
    I have also explained Where ZAJ1 has condition record. but which is not set in the document. if pricing was carried out again it will set the condition for the item.
    But now again the call was reopened stating that -
    At the time of creating the sales order the ZAJ1Condition record exist in the period 27-01-2009 to 15-02-2009. now the primary rebate should be used by the system. Unfortunately it did not.
    Based on the reopend call - i have further investigated the issue but i could not find the root cause.
    Based on this when i checked the previous order where the ZAJ1 condition was well picked up with the validity period 27-01-2009 to 15-02-2009, what might be the reason the condition type was not picked up in the sales order?
    Can you please let me know with your expertise in solving this issue.
    Regards,
    J

    1)Requirement is set with 2 (itme with pricing). and calculation type is assigned with own calculation type.
    2) In the pricing analysis - it shows as per below
    This message tells you that the condition record exists, but has not been set in the document. If pricing was carried out again for the document item, then the condition would be set.
    There are different reasons for this:
    The condition was deleted manually in the item condition screen.
    The condition record was created later. Please note that order processing and pricing have buffer mechanisms. This means that a newly added condition record might only be found after order processing has been left completely and then started again.
    If the condition type is used for subsequent settlement (rebate), there may be subsequent updating of business volume (the agreement is is created retrospectively). The document conditions do not contain the condition record, as the condition record was not created when pricing was carried out. Updating of business volume is carried out using special functions for subsequent settlement.
    When an item was added, the condition record was accessed with key fields other than change time. This could lead to different results in the requirements check at the time of adding and the change time. This can occur when modifications are made.
    In billing (or when copying orders): Certain condition types were not determined in the source document (this is usually controlled by the pricing requirements). When creating the document, the document flow (TVCPF,TVCPA) is processed using a pricing type that does not redetermine these condition types, although they are supposed to be called via the requirements.
    Thanks,

  • Data plan used if MiFi connected but not actively being used?

    If computer is on overnight but not in use, meaning MiFi connected, with that use up my data plan? Or does it use up with "active" use only? I'm sharing internet with other people so I'm not sure my data plan is being used on purpose or just getting eaten up while we are all asleep? I'm already maxed with 3 weeks to go!!!

    As long as you have devices connected to the MiFi there is always a risk that those devices will consume data behind the scenes without your knowledge.  This is how network connected devices work, they are constantly "in use" while connected.  Computers, smart phones and any kind of internet connected devices are constantly backing up content, looking for updates and talking to other network devices.  It has nothing to do with your active participation and all internet communication is held against you on your data plan.
    The only way to completely stop data usage is to turn off your MiFi when it is not needed.  This is a common safe practice that you should start using when on a metered data plan.  MiFis are not intended to be left on 24x7 anyways, frequent reboots will help ensure the device stays in proper working order and increase the longevity of its life.
    Verizon does provide everyone with a data log.  The data log will provide you with time stamps and the amounts that are consumed at those times.  It should be easy to see when your biggest spikes of consumption are.  Isolate what devices are online during those times and what may have been going on and you can start to build a picture of where the problem lies.
    To truly see the network traffic in terms of specific applications, web services or devices you need to find and install network monitors.  Network monitors come in a variety of applications so you need to find and build a monitoring system that fits your environment.  Considering you have other people connected to your MiFi it would not be uncommon for each of you to install a separate monitor specific to those machines.
    Let me know if you have any other questions.

  • Want to import bookmarks from IE to Firefox to update my list. Import function under File is not avaiable as it is listed but not active.

    In the past I have imported my favorites from IE to Firefox bookmarks. Now I want to redo it to update the ones I have in IE but not in Firefox. When I click on File the drop down menu has Import listed but it is not highlighted or you might say its shadowed out and does nothing when I click on it. I guess my question is how can I make the import option active so I can use the import wizard?
