Restore Oracle with brtools to a Windows server with different disk structure

Hello gurus,
Is it possible to restore Oracle to a Windows machine that has different disk structure than a source machine?
E.g. source machine had disks C:, D:, E: (on which Oracle data files were distributed), but a target machine has only disk C:
Database is backuped with brtools.

Hi
I did some mass changes using a script... to be honest I'm not sure if I did it to restore FROM a different location, or TO a different location.
You could also use Brrestore option -m|-mode to restore the datafiles to a new location.
Check online help   -m|-mode - SAP Database Guide: Oracle (BC-DB-ORA-DBA) - SAP Library
For instance the here under command will restore datafiles #10 to #20 to the /tmp directory
brrestore -u / -b beokfyeu.pnd -c -m 10-20=/tmp
You could find datafile ID by querying view dba_data_files
select FILE_ID, FILE_NAME, TABLESPACE_NAME from DBA_DATA_FILES;
Regards

  • Oracle 11gR2 installation problem on Windows Server 2008 R2 datacenter

    Hi
    I am trying to install Oracle 11Gr2 64 bit on Windows server 2008 R2.The system configuration is "Intel Xeon, RAM 8.00 GB.
    i
    The installation is getting paused at the 8th step of Oracle installation.Neither i am getting any error message nor an entry is recorded in the Oracle inventory log.
    It is showing a blank screen after the prerequiste checks are complete.
    Request you to help me out in resolving the issue.
    Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

    Hi Helios
    Thanks for the response. The database is still not created to check in the Alert log .It is still in the phase of pre-requisite checks. I did not go with Silent installation.It is a plain single instance installation.
    The installation screen is greyed out with out any message or error.
    Please could you share if you have any thoughts on this.

    i mean
    from scratch  i just prepared a windows server 2012 R2 vm

    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/12502.how-to-install-and-configure-windows-server-2012-for-sharepoint-2010.aspx
    and i have sharepoint 2010 set up, and i downloaded sharepoint 2010 sp2
    from this link
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39672
    now should i install sp2 and install sharepoint 2010 binaries?
    adil

    SharePoint 2010 has no supportability statement for Server 2012 R2.  I would not use it until Microsoft releases a supportability statement.
    Even it  has no supportability for server 2012, but sharepoint 2010 running fine in my server 2012 test environment
    adil
    You indicated you were using 2012 R2.  SharePoint 2010 supports Server 2012 (non-R2) with SP2 media, but has no supportability statement for Server 2012 R2.

  • Replacing a windows server with a Mac server

    Hi all,
    So this is a big company with about 150 employees using PC's (win xp and 7), considering replacing the current Windows server with a Mac server.
    Is it possible to give users profiles once they log in like Windows server does? So when the user logs in they get to their own personal stuff? Can Mac server do that?
    Can the user also get to the default printer and send prints to it regardless where they log in from inside the company?
    And can the home directory to each user NOT be copied anywhere on the local machine where they log in? Meaning that after they log out there will be no traces to their files on that local PC..
    Thanks a lot in advance!!

    By some standards, 150 is not "big" but a large small business :-)
    Regardless, please plan and test and plan some more, very carefully !
    The picture for what you want to do once looked far better with 10.6 server but that had its limitations as well.
    With 10.6 server, Apple was using Samba - they are no longer doing so,
    but/and the version of Samba they were using only provided NT-Domain level support.
    So that would not work with your Win 7 stations either. But could be made to work relatively well with XP workstations. You can no longer buy any new Mac that runs 10.6 server and 10.6 server would be hard to obtain.
    Not a great route to go.
    Bear in mind that the key problem with Apple's Samba was that Samba changed their licensing,
    and there's not a thing in the world Apple could do to implement a current version of Samba without violating their own operating principles and the licensing requirements.
    You'll be heading into heavily uncharted territory here. Odds are good that any desired domain-functionality is not going to work for you.
    Honestly, Apple appears to have thrown in the towel on directory-level support for Windows,
    and the best way to support Windows workstations in that regard is with Windows server and AD.
    Basic filesharing works, with some caveats.
    If there's no AD involved at all, then have a look at my earlier post,
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206725?start=47
    Which worked a-ok for me but your mileage may vary.
    Samba new current versions and GPL3 licensing issue:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206725?start=75&tstart=0
    "GPLv3 makes it impossible to provide signed binaries without also providing the signing keys. A few seconds of thought will reveal why Apple is unwilling to provide copies of the keys they use to sign system software. Part of locking down OS X security profile required removing anythign that used GPLv3.
    Short version: GPLv3 is specifially desinged to be anti-company, and you are going to see a ever widening schism in the FSS/OSS community between GPL and all the other licenses, and you will be seeing less and less GPL code in commercial OSes and more BSD/Apache/&c code."

  • OS 10.7, SMB Connection, Change to Unicode with Extended Security on Windows Server 2008 Standard

    Hi All,  I've searched Google, and I've also contacted Apple Support with no luck:  I want to implement unicode with extended security on Windows Server 2008 Standard server shared folders so that Lion can connect normally (i.e. Finder->Go->Connect to Server->IP Address or server name) to SMB shares and access files.  I'm lacking information; has anyone actually implemented unicode with extended security?  If so, how?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply aorlich. Do you mean enable file sharing on my Mac? With file sharing enabled, I still cannot get to my Windows 7 shares, although the files on my Mac do become available to Windows. Thanks again.

  • How to join to window server with NIP policy

    how to join to window server with NIP policy?

    Since you refer to MySQL as the default database, I presume that you're talking about using PHP.
    Yes, you can link to MS SQL Server - as long as you're willing to code everything by hand. If you're looking for automated code generation, though, the answer is no.
    Even the default PHP/MySQL server behaviors are not really worth considering for professional web development. They're fine for quick prototyping, but they use deprecated functions that are not suitable for a production environment.

  • Windows Server 2012 Logical Disk Free Space (%) Low

    I enabled the monitor "Windows Server 2012 Logical Disk Free Space (%) Low" and configured a low threshold to test. I started to get a bunch of warnings from servers, for example:
    The disk \\?\Volume{ee0222ed-16de-40a5-af89-f95db3fdf5a4} on computer PC is running out of disk space. The value that exceeded the threshold is 11% free space.
    Now I checked on the server, and all the disks have more than 11% free space. Additionally, I don't see any disks with such a name/guid.
    When looking at the additional knowledge of the monitor, I see that it is using the following information:
    Object Name: Logical Disk
    Counter Name: PercentFree 
    My question is where is this disk coming from, and how can I avoid these disks from creating false alarms? When looking in the Windows Server
    From my analyzing the DB, I see that these are the partitions on the server without a volume letter. Any way to avoid getting these discovered and/or alerts, without overriding each one?

    Hi,
    These "strange" disks are called mount points.
    They get discovered by the "Mount Point Discovery Rule".
    Go to your authoring => rules => search for the rule above and disable it.
    If you want to remove all the instances in your environment you need to use Remove-SCOMDisabledClassInstance
    powershell cmdlet.
    More info on the cmdlet can be found here:  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh920257%28v=sc.20%29.aspx

  • Installing Oracle 11gR2 Standard Edition on WINDOWS Server 2008R2 with ASM

    Hi,
    I want to setup Oracle 11g DB (11.2.0.2) Standard Edition on Windows Server 2008R2 x64 bit with ASM Instance. I would appreciate if you could suggest me with the following little but important questions.
    The following link from Oracle doesnt have 11.2.0.2 db version for windows x64 bit. Do a patch (which I think is a complete installation) is needed to install after installing 11.2.0.1? or I can directly install 11.2.0.2?
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html
    Secondly, I have no such experience regarding installing and setting up ASM Instance on windows. How many disks or etc is needed for ASM (as ASM disks). One of the admin guy said, he has 6 disks (2 for OS and 6 you can use for Oracle or ASM so so). Could you please suggest, how should I divide the disk partitions of what should I say no idea :(
    Also, do ASM instance (diskgroups,disks) should be setup before creating DB (through dbca?)
    I was thinking like:
    - Installing Oracle software
    - Creating ASM disks,diskgroups,instance,etc
    - Creating DB (using dbca?), isnt' it?
    Bundle of thanks in advance.
    Best Regards

  • Rman restore to windows server with different drive layout

    I'm restoring to a server with a different drive layout. I'm using the set newname for the datafiles and it's working fine. However. My redo logs show that they are on the f: drive and the f: drive doesn't exist on the new server (recovery). so when I'm all done I get an error saying that it cant find the redo02.log. Any ideas?
    TIA
    Dave

    no problem, thanks for the reply.
    Here's what I tried in the init.ora
    LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=('F:\ORADATA\ORCQA08','D:\ORADATA\ORCQA08')
    I didn't even create the spfile I figured I could do that later.
    The datafiles alll go to the correct drive, here's my restore statement:
    run
    allocate channel disk_channel1 type disk;
    allocate channel disk_channel2 type disk;
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 1 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\SYSTEM01.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 2 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\SYSAUX01.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 3 to 'e:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\UNDOTBS01.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 4 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\USERS01.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 5 to 'e:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\PLATDATA.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 6 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\PLATHISTDATA.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 7 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\TS_MV.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 8 to 'e:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\PLATNDX.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 9 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\POADATA.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 10 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\POABDATA.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 11 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\POANDX.DBF';
    SET NEWNAME for datafile 12 to 'd:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\TS_REPORT_DATA.DBF';
    restore database;
    release channel disk_channel1;
    release channel disk_channel2;
    i then do a switch database to copy and this registers the datafiles under the correct drive BUT when I try to open the database this is what i get:
    ORA-00280: change 15613734 for thread 1 is in sequence #861
    ORA-00278: log file
    'D:\oracle\flash_recovery_area\ORCQA08\ARCHIVELOG\2012_08_03\ARC0000000860_07815
    80447.0001' no longer needed for this recovery
    Specify log: {<RET>=suggested | filename | AUTO | CANCEL}
    cancel
    Media recovery cancelled.
    SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
    alter database open resetlogs
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00344: unable to re-create online log 'F:\ORADATA\ORCQA08\REDO01.LOG'
    ORA-27040: file create error, unable to create file
    OSD-04002: unable to open file
    O/S-Error: (OS 3) The system cannot find the path specified.
    You can see that it's still looking on the f: drive for the redo log. Is my syntax correct?? - - LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=('F:\ORADATA\ORCQA08','D:\ORADATA\ORCQA08')
    I can get rid of the other redo logs by dropping them and recreating under the proper drive but 01 is the active log.
    any other ideas?

  • Oracle DB 10g XE on Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit

    Hello to everybody!
    I have and old pc with Windows Server 2003 (32 bit) where i've installed Oracle DB 10g XE. Everything works fine.
    Now i have to migrate the DB from that old machine to a new one with Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit.
    I've tryied to install the Oracle DB 10g XE into the new server but, after installation is finished, i wasn't able to open the DB homepage at http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex. It said "This page can't be displayed". I try with SQLPLUS but after i insert the admin credentials i obtain these lines:
    ERROR:
    ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
    ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
    Where can be the problem?

    >> ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
    Database is not running. Most likely the installer did not complete all its tasks, it can happen.
    For windows, the database service has to be set up (see Start/Run/services.msc), services started, installer creates the database, and quite a few other setup chores. If the database creation fails, all the other stuff is not relevant.
    Under the <drive:>oraclexe folder there *should* be a datafiles (*.DBF) files somewhere. Can't recall the exact location for 10g. Try file explorer and a search for *.dbf files, that will probably come up empty.
    Note the requirements, at Oracle&amp;reg; Database Express Edition it calls for x86, not x64. The 11g XE also has lots of trouble getting a successful install on x64 as well, note the Download page states "does not work on x64" although some folks have gotten it to work.Try the deinstall steps, and use a right click/run as Administrator that *might* get past the UAC glitch that happens on the later OS versions.
