Recovery Strategy - Need Some Information - Critical

Hello all,
I need help from you all to understand the following scenario:
1.We have a Production database which is running in ARCHIEVELOG mode.
2.This database is supported with FAILOVER Machenism.
3.The backup strategy is as follows
3.1 Sunday Level 0
3.2 Monday,
3.3 Tuesday Level 2
3.3 Wednesday Level 1
3.4 Thursday Level 2
3.5 Friday Level 1
3.6. Saturday Level 2
Now follows my question:
1. If I need to delete some of the old Archieve files, Can I delete them?
2. If I can delete them, up to which date can I delete them?
3. Consider on Sunday the date is 16, and my db is crashed on 20 i.e on Thursday and I have deleted the archieve files till 15 i.e. on Saturday. In this situation can I recover the database completely?
If you need any clarification, please revert.
This is very critical issue for me.
Your help will be appreciated.

Hi again Himanshu,
In fact you don't even need to restore the archived redo logs if you backup them!
For example in your backup scripts you can includeBACKUP ARCHIVE LOG ALL DELETE INPUT;This will include the in your backup sets, so they'll be targets for your backup retention policy.
Then, if it crashes on monday, you just RESTORE UNTIL "sunday";
RECOVER UNTIL "monday sometime";RMAN will find the necessary backupsets, including those for the archived redo logs and do it for you.
Or you can RESTORE ARCHIVE LOG also. Refer to RMAN guide for syntax.
HTH,
Yoann.

"sunday" and "monday sometime"are not RMAN keywords! (just to get it straight :) )

  • I have project I want to run and need some information

    Hi
    I have project I want to run and need some information about technical, consultancy, architecture design
    and what I need for this project (hardware and software(
    I planning to stream live streaming 24 channels,
    The feed is analog from pal STB cable or satellite.
    I want to stream in 2 different resolution and bit rates
    1. full screen 750-850k
    2. 240x360    400-600k
    the format is flash h.264
    The channels are series, sport, news, and movie.
    What recommended card (i have osprey 450e)?
    What kind of requirement of computer I need (CPU, MHZ, CORE, RAM).
    can i use i7 cpu or xeon cpu?
    how many channels i can run in 1 computer?
    I need cheap solution for this project around 20-30k$ for hardware.
    thnaks

    I am working on a similar project.
    Actually, i can encode 2 streams in h.264 with a resolution around 640X480 on a Intel Xeon E3120 (2 core) 3.16 GHZ configuration.
    OS is a windows XP 32 bits. CPU usage is around 75%.
    (note: FMLE instances are run with FMLEcmd not GUI mode)
    Does someone know if i can gain performance with windows XP 64bits ?
    My goal is to encode 4 streams on a single machine, does someone know if a dual CPU, let's say 2 X (4 core) Xeon, is enough ?
    I don't know if FMLE support multiple processor with multiple core configuration.
    I am maybe wrong, but after reading this forum, it seems many people have problems using FMLE under windows vista. Do we gain performance on Vista vs XP ?

    Hello guys,
    I need some information about jre 1.5 and jre 1.6.
    Suppose if i have jre 1.5 customized with "additional language support" installed in my my desktop, and later on i install jre 1.6. will this jre over write all the esisting settings which was present in jre 1.5?
    In short will the version upgrades disable the features of the old Version even though the old version is present in the desktop?
    Thanks in advance for your answers.

    ^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^ ^^
    That's not a trivial step. I would write a small C/C++ program that
    exercises your driver (for robustness) just to be sure it's working
    right first without crashing your system.
    >The problem is that I don't know to use this driver in LabView.
    >For now, I think to use a "code interface node" with code writen in C or a
    >"call library function" with a DLL.
    That's correct. _After_ you got your C/C
    ++ test program (and USB
    driver) above working, then you can convert this little test program
    into a DLL or CIN, which can interface with LabView. A DLL might be
    easier (slightly) to write, but the CIN will work faster with LabView
    and can be designed to be reentrant. The Code Interface Reference
    Manual should guide you. Remember, this is a task for an _experienced_
    C programmer. You'll need to use handles to pointers into all your
    dynamic arrays and such passed into LabView.
    After you got your CIN or DLL written, you can use a special CIN
    function node to "link" (or bind) your CIN object into LabView's VI
    diagram.
    SOME THOUGHTS:
    There are many hardware devices already on the market today that come
    with Windows 98 drivers and DLL (or even CIN) libraries that would work
    immediately with LabView. Why don't you save yourself three months of
    work and simply buy one of these?

  • I need some information about File Download & File Upload

    Hi  All,
    Can any one help me on this, I need some information about File Download & File Upload.
    I read tutorial abt file upload and download but some of methods in tutorial are deprecated so i need clear information abt File upload and Download, if possible Code examples.
    Thanks
    Ragards
    Ravi Golla

    Hi Ravi
    Check out thses links for examples:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/00062266-3aa9-2910-d485-f1088c3a4d71

    Otherwise you can simply follow this code for file download
    Use the code like this.
    1) Create the button and bind the action for it.
    2)then write this code in the action.
    3) do not write any thing in the init method.
    try {
    final byte[] content = this.getByteArrayFromResourcePath("C:
    xyz.properties");
    final IWDCachedWebResource resource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(content, WDWebResourceType.UNKNOWN);
    try {
    final IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(resource.getAbsoluteURL(), "WD_Filedownload", false);
    window.open();
    catch(Exception e)
    wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException(new WDNonFatalException(e), false);
    5) writr the method getByteArrayFromResourcePath
    //@@begin others
    private byte[] getByteArrayFromResourcePath(String resourcePath)
    throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
    FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File(resourcePath));
    ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    int len;
    byte[] part = new byte[10 * 1024];
    while ((len = in.read(part)) != -1) {
    out.write(part, 0, len);
    in.close();
    return out.toByteArray();
    //end
    Similarly for file upload
    Similarly for upload in to server path also do the same
    IWDAttributeInfo attInfo =
    wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("upload");
    binaryType =
    (IWDModifiableBinaryType) attInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
    uploadedName = binaryType.getFileName();
    File filename =new File("
    <server name>
    <folder name>
    "+uploadedName ); );
    try {
    FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(filename);
    out.write(b);
    out.close();
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {

  • I need some information on quickviewer input range

    Hi
    I need some information on quickviewer input range
    In quickviewer it is allowing me to input only 5000 or 6000 (BP)records, if i am trying to input more than that it is throwing ABAP- run time error. Is there any other way to input more than that in Quickviewe
    kindly please suggest me
    Regards
    Vinay

    Hy Vinay,
    you get an error because the work with the Quickviewer is a dialog- Prozess.
    If you want a 'work around', set the parameter of the timeout dialog prozess higher.

  • I need some information about drivers

    Hi all, I am developing an acquisition data system for biomedical
    signals and I need to transmit this data from my hardware to PC using the
    USB port. For this, I am writing a device driver for Windows 98 that receive
    data and put it in a memory buffer. I have a VI which graphs this data in
    LabView 5.0. The problem is that I don´t know to use this driver in LabView.
    For now, I think to use a "code interface node" with code writen in C or a
    "call library function" with a DLL. But I need some help with the "code
    interface node" because this VI don´t use a .c file. Shortly, I apreciate
    some help with this VI or some idea for use the USB port in LabView. Thanks.

  • Need some information on dataguard / streams for our scenerio !!

    Hi,
    We have a application with Oracle 11g ( will call it as Box 1 ) , currently apart form regular transaction load that we have, there are couple of other reporting apps also tapping/approaching our primary db (Box 1 ) which puts a lot of load on the db & the server. I did some go-ogling and found that data guard or streams can come as handy to bring the load down by introducing Box 2 as standby db.... So i am thinking to have a standby server i.e. Box 2 which will cater to all the reporting requirements and primary will just play a role of data entry & small reporting req.
    So my question to you guys is :
    1) Assuming i just want to offload some load from server to box 2 for reporting purpose, is Data guard an option to go for . If yes, then do i need to go with physical standby or logical standby assuming our standby db will be just just for reporting purpose or in other words all the reporting apps like data warehousing wil be approaching standby db ?
    2) As i understood STREAMS comes in handy if i want to have more control as to what gets shipped on to box 2 as a update, like u can much finer granule level control i.e. table level , col level etc . So since we plan to have complete db in sync always, streams wont be useful in our case, right ?
    -Learner

    Hi,
    Here two things are different 1) standby 2) streams, of course related to replication
    Starting from 11g, you can use physical standby for remitting purposes, that mean select statements will work I.e. You can say read only database also recovery will be enabled too.
    In that process, users who perform only read only operations, no inserts/updates/delete operations are allowed.
    In streams, it works across heterogeneous platforms, you can perform replication of data, that can be some objects or any schema or full database too. There would be lot of dependency too.
    To SYNC both databases you can go for data guard which comes only with cost of enterprise edition. Standby is exactly mirror copy.

  • Need some information for jar files upload in Oracle

    Hi,
    I am developing some java stored procedures which requires uploading about 10-15 jar files or may be more, to the oracle database. One way is to use loadjava and oracle stores classes in those jar files as separate java classes. Is there a way that I can put these jar files somewhere in the file systems, configure some oracle parameter, restart the database and still I am able to use them from my java stored procedures. This will be some kind of a dropin folder for jars. Any information on this will be helpfule.
    Thanks

    The forum on the JVM in Oracle at Java in the Oracle Database might be a better one to answer your question.

  • Hello,i just need some information

    Hy,i just have some questions...First,i am in project for creating some website with streaming video.The connection to the host is bad and i need to know if Flash media server can reconnect if connection is lost during playback and second,is there some kind of plugin for subtitles,this is very important,If there is a positive answers on those two questions,the third would be "where can i buy it and how"?

    First question: Yes very much. You can write simple logic for reconnection. Also there is new feature called Smart Reconnect which you can use for this purpose.
    Smart Reconnect links: -
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashMediaServer/3.5.3/FeaturesGuide/flashmediaserver_3.5.3_fe atures.pdf
    http://aspexamples.adobe.com/flash/streamreconnect.html
    Second question: - I am not aware of such plug-in personally but there are high chances that it might be available. But i want to know first how you want to achieve it - are you sub titles not embedded in movie itself or is it separate from movie content and if yes in what format. Even if one is not available for ready to use - i think developing one should not be big deal - it can simple as overlay on your client side which gets populated with text at runtime.
    Third question: You can download it from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/ (just choose your edition & on that page you should have download link) - OR once you decide to buy you can send your contact details(Name,Email,Phone,Geo Location) to me via private message and i can help you get in touch with right person.
