Redefinition of locations when move Warehouse Builder to new server

Hi
We have 4 DW/OWB environment, but only one design repository (development)
We have defined 4 configurations with 4 "sets" of locations.
The locatiosn are defined as host:port:servicename, because of bug, when defined as tns.
Now we are moving our DW to a new server and must redefine all locations.
After the movement we have to
1) unregister all locations
2) change all locations
3) register all locations
4) redeploy all mappings, process flows and procedures
This is a huge task, even if it can be automated via a OMBPlus script.
Does any one know about a script (SQL or OMBPlus), that can be used for redefinition of the locations in the design repository and the 4 runtime repositories, so we don't have to perform the above tasks ?
Best Regards
Klaus

Hi
Re: NTP... you can have multiple NTP servers assigned, and only the primary NTP server is used for license MAC generation. As such, I would:
1) set the primary NTP server to be the real NTP address you want to use. This will not be accessible when you build the server with the old servers' IP.
2) set the secondary NTP server to an accessible NTP server. I do this by setting up NTP on the server you serve the SFTP backup file from. I use Meinberg NTP if this is a Windows box, it's free.
That way you can build the server (primary NTP not accessible, but secondary is so it's fine). Then after the restore, change IP address and it will start using the primary NTP server.
I presume deployment type refers to product and role .e.g. a CUCM Publisher, not a CUC server or CUCMBE publisher.

Owb version is 10.1 Release 1 and WorkFlow Server is 2.6.3!
I hope we can finalize this problem... thanks a lot.!

Move Publisher backup to new server( Cold Standby Server) ?

We have CUCM cluster consist of 1 publisher, 4 subscriber and have installed a new node like another cluster's publisher(with diferent ip address from existing publisher) . When existing publisher goes down we will move publisher backup to new server and change publisher ip address to new server on existing subscribers.
is it posible ?
Our aim is using new server for publisher down issue.(like cold standby server but diferent ip address from existing publisher)
Or is there any better way to install publisher backup on on branch? When publisher goes down we will use the new server like publisher.

I switched email servers and when I synced to the new server, all my old emails erased... HELP

I previously had 1&1.com hosting my email addresses ([email protected] & [email protected]) and I recently switched to Weebly/Gmail to host these email addresses...
I enabled IMAP forwarding in gmail (which in hinesight I think I should have selected POP) and when I updated my server settings in Thunderbird - all of my old emails disappeared. Theses emails are for business and I may have dramatically hurt our business by doing this.
Are emails backed up anywhere where I can restore from? I do have the option selected to store all emails on my local computer - please help :)

With IMAP all mail is managed on the server. By simply changing the server of an existing account you virtually start from scratch. I.e. the new server knows nothing about the mail on the old server.<br>
What you see in Thunderbird is basically a mirror of what's on the server.
What you should have done is moving messages off of the old server to your Local Folders account.<br>
Alternatively you could have created a new account with the same email address on the new server.
The Thunderbird IMAP synchronization option basically is a local offline copy of what's on the server. The offline copy got wiped out when you connected to the new server. It isn't an equivalent for a proper backup of your messages.
I don't know if you still have access to the old server. If not, then you can only restore a backup of your profile folder, assuming you've created one at some point.
It is grossly negligent not to backup your business email.

Move database to the new server

Hello,
I have 10.2.0.1 Standard Edition database (7GB, not in archivelog mode) on Windows2003 server, and need to move it to the new server (same environment). I thought to use OEM Clone option, but it appears cloning to the other host is working only in Grid - and I have DB Control.
I know about manual cloning/recreation, but now looking into export and import option. So I think to install Oracle database on the new server, then import some relevant tablespaces exported from the old database. I will use datapump utility in OEM, under system username.
Is that a good approach ? What rules should be applied to avoid problems in that case ? Sorry if it's very basic question, never moved database before.
Marina

Options for porting the database from one server to another after installing Oracle on the new server incldue
Export/Import using expdp/impdp
Rman duplicate to compatiable hardware
Rman file conversion to non-compatiable hardware
On advantage of expdp/impdp is this option supports reconfiguring the database tablespace/file/object storage layout as part of the migration. Also the adoption of new features like ASSM.
A disadvantage is that using expdp/impdp will probably be slower and involve more DBA work than using file copies via rman. There are approaches to reduce the clock time necessary to support export/import and the work is often beneficial for long-term database management efforts.
There have been threads on this topic before and failry recently. You might want to hunt one or two of them down.

Move apps tier to new server

Hi all,
here we have 2 node setup
node 1 : apps + db (cm + db)
node 2 : apps (web + forms)
requirement is we want to move node 2 to new server bcoz os team wants to do some maintainance on node 2.
is this possible to move only node 2 (web + forms) to new server through rapid clone n sync with existing cm and db node or we have to move entire setup to new servers
links n MOS doc ids highly appreciated
versions:
apps : 11.5.9
db: 9.2.0.8
os : RHEL 4
Thanks,
Haafiz

Yes it is possible and all you need to do is the following (you don't need to move node1):
- Install OS on the new server + OS pre-req software and packages
- Run preclone on node 2
- Shutdown the application on node 2 and copy the files to the new node
- Run postclone on the new node
- Clean FND_NODES and run AutoConfig

Can't auto decommission and move service profile to new server

When blade hardware is fail service profile will move to new server in server pool. but before service profile move to new server ,administrator must approve by click Decommission link in server pool configuration. If i tested by click Decommission in Server Maintennance Menu it work fine but tested by Unmount Blade Server ,Unmount HDD ,Power button don't work service profile don't move to new server.
I need automatic decommission function and how i config it?
When service profile move to new server if blade hardware fail?

Thank you for answer.
I has open TAC and then answer from Cisco support is no auto decommission in UCSM.
I think is Weakness of cisco ucs system.
UCS Develop team can you provide simple script auto decommission for me and another customer ?

MOVE REPLICATION DATABASE TO NEW SERVER

WE HAVE A PRODUCTION DATABASE THAT WORK'S AS REPLICATION FROM 9 DATABASES, WE ARE GOING TO MOVE DATABASE TO NEW SERVER.
AS DATABASE IS PRODUCTION, WE CAN NOT STOP SERVICES. WE THINK TO CREATE A NEW DATABASE ON NEW SERVER, IMPORT DATA FROM PROD. DATABASE. SIZE APROX 100GB.
QUESTION:
I NEED TO KNOW HOW I CAN STOP SERVICES SHORT TIME. TO CHANGE TO SNEW SERVER.
THANKS FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS

Здравствуте Ivan.
Before i would do anything like this i would make sure that i have a good valid backup (just in case!).
I would check all the applications that are currently conencting to your ORacle and make sure they are all conneting 'by name' not the IP. Or and then i would check DNS server (make sure nslookup is working) to makesure that everything resolves correctly after the moving DB to another machine.
Then check that the oracle_home etc are in the same directory and check that all paths etc in the configurations are the same.
Hope this helps

Migrating SQL Management Data Warehouse to a new server

Is there a defined path for migrating a Managment Data Warehouse to a instance?
Does Microsoft provide any scripts for this? Is it a case of backing up and restoring databases to the new instance? And what about all the data collection sets running on the monitored instances? Do we have to re-point these to the new instance hosting
the MDW individually by logging on teach monitored instance? Or can we do this globally somehow?
Thanks.

Hi NiborTrassam,
Sorry the delay.
To migrate the Management Data Warehouse, you can back up the MDW database, and restore it on the new instance. Then, on the new instance, you need to start the Configure Management Data Warehouse Wizard to create a Management Data Warehouse based on the
migrated MDW database, as well as upgrade the login mapping if necessary.
On each instance that is monitored, you need to start the Configure Management Data Warehouse Wizard to setup new data collection to point to the MDW data warehouse on the new instance.

Move mailbox database to new server (new domain)

Hey,
I want to move a mailbox database from a broken server to a new server in a new domain.
We are already using the new server and I am wondering if I can merge the databases or make the old mail available in any way. Currently everybody has done a pst export before adding the new mailbox.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,
Exchange Server 2013 introduces the concept of batch moves and migration endpoints. Migration endpoints are management objects that describe the remote server and the connections that can be associated with one or more batches. And, the new batch move architecture
improves on MRS moves with enhanced management capability. You can select the appropriate method to move your mailboxes.
Here is an article for your reference:

Move MaxDB database to new server

Hello,
I would like to move a MaxDB (Content Server) database from a Windows 2003 x86 server to a Windows 2003 x64 server. I will be moving from 7.5 to 7.6 at the same time. Reading around the subject, this is what I have done so far:
Target Server:
Used SAPINST to install the MaxDB 7.6 / Content Server 6.40 on the new x64 target server.
SAPINST created a empty database on the target server and I added the appropriate number of volumes.
After playing around I used db_active to initialize the target database.
Put the target database in admin mode.
Source Server:
Used backup_start CompleteData RECOVERY DATA to create a backup of the database.
Target Server:
Created a backup medium called Restore and pointed this at the copied backup file.
In db_admin mode executed a recover_start "Restore" DATA
db_online
Re-created the system tables (via wizard or dbmcli)
Questions:
Do I need to apply any log backups here (assuming no activity on source)?
If there were activity on the source and I applied the logs to the target, how do I apply the data that is in the transaction logs but not currently written to the log backup?
There is no backup history on the target server, how does it know how far to go and that the log recovery is complete?
Can the backup history be copied from souce to target?
Thanks,
Philip.

Hello Philip,
SAP Note 1089402 - "Shortening backup history for MaxDB/liveCache instances" is useful in this case:
The backup history of a database instance that is based on MaxDB is stored in the files dbm.knl and dbm.mdf in the run directory (usually, /sapdb/data/wrk/<DBSID>)
You can copy these two files in the new server in order to apply the log backup to the restored database BUT... this is not supported by SAP, because as far as I know there is no SAP Notes where you are asked to do so.
So, the supported procedure is to restore the DB but you shouldn't apply any backup log

Valerio

Move Owb database to new server

Hi,
We are going to move our Owb (9.2.0.2.8) database to a new server. The nodename isn't going to change only the ip-address will change. The OS will be the same.
The steps will be:
1) install Owb on new server
2) copy database to new server
Is there some other step we'll need to take?
regards,
Ivan

Restore database Error when restoring database to a new server

Hi folks,
I am oracle 10g on an AIX server (5.3).
I created an rman backup of a database. I then copied it over to a new server where I am trying to restore it (I just created the backup today). However, I am getting the error below.
Essentially, I used an initdb.ora file to create an instance of the database, and mounted it, on the new server. And then I ran a simple "restore database" command, the end of which is displayed below, with a "Restore complete. ..."
I have looked up this error (ora-01152) online and I cannot find a scenario which best provides me with a fix to my problem, about the file not being restored from a sufficiently old backup. Could any one help please?

Create a script for "when movie ends, go to new page in site"

Sorry. Very new to this.
I have a simple Flash animation which I have imported to a page in my DW doc. When the anim finishes, I would like the page to go to a different page in the same site. Without clicking.
I assume I have to write some AS on the last frame of my FL file, correct?
so... something like this (don't laugh)
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("page.html")
stage (or something?).addEventListener(what goes here.ENDMOVIEor something like that, endMovie);
function endMovie(event:WhatGoesHere):void
navigateToURL(link);
Obviously I need help.
TIA
Gretchen

Thanks. But I can't get this to work. I placed that code in the last frame of my movie (I tried stop() both before and after it as well), I exported as a swf. I imported it to DW (import--media). the movie runs, but does not go to new page.
should the URLRequest have www before it? I don't think so because it is in the local root folder.
Any other suggestions?
( I am also searching old messages on same subject)
TIA again.
Gretchen

In memory replication problems when I bring up a new server

          I've got in memory replication set up for 6.1. It works fine if I have 2 servers
          up and 1 goes down.
          However, if I have 1 server up and a bring a second server up, the sessions blow
          out.
          E.g. I've got server A and server B.
          Both are up, both have sessions. As new sessions come in, they are replicated over
          to the other server.
          now I bring server B down. All sessions on B fail over to A.
          so far so good.
          However when I bring server A back up some of the sessions fail as soon as the server
          is back up.
          Is this a configuration issue, is this a know problem?
          This worked fine in weblogic 5.1. In 5.1 when I brought an instance back up, everything
          worked fine.


          It turns out the problem was caused by using an old version of the Apache Plugin.
          This problem occurred while using the 5.1 apache plugin with WLS 6.1.
          Once we realized we were using the wrong plugin and swithced to the 6.1 plugin, the
          problem went away.
