RMAN-06747: at least 1 channel of tertiary storage - RAC 10gR2 and DataProt

Hello,
I try to set DataProtector 6 with Oracle RAC 10gR2 (10.2.0.4) in HP-UX 11.31.
When I run the following command in RMAN, i have the error:
RMAN-06747: at least 1 channel of tertiary storage must be allocated to execute this command.
The statement is:
run {
allocate channel 'dev_0' type 'sbt_tape'

I appreciate the help.

Rober,
SBT backups are not automatically removed by ORACLE. Only disk based backups that are in flash recovery area are automatically purged.
You need to delete them manually as in DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE DEVICE TYPE SBT;
However, the good news is: your RETENTION POLICY is respected by SBT backups, so you do not need to specify "SBT-only" retention (unless you want to).

Storage unit types and storage bin types - Need

Hi,
i want to know what is the use of the storage unit type and storage bin type.
thanks,
Maxx

Dear Maxx,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/c6/f844694afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Storage Bin:
A storage type generally contains several storage spaces or slots. These are called storage bins in Warehouse Management (WM). The storage bin is the smallest available unit of space in a warehouse. The storage bin therefore describes the position in the warehouse where the goods are or can be stored.
Since the address of a storage bin is frequently derived from a coordinate system, a storage bin is often referred to as a coordinate. The coordinate 01-02-03 for example, can refer to a storage bin in row 1, stack 2, and level 3.
You assign each storage bin to a specific warehouse number and storage type according to its location. You must also assign each storage bin to a storage section.
You can also define the following additional characteristics of a storage bin:
Maximum weight
Total capacity
Fire containment section
Storage bin type (for example, for small or large pallets)
With certain stock placement strategies, the storage bin type plays a significant role in optimizing the automatic search for a storage bin in connection with the pallet type. For example, you can define the WM putaway strategy to place large industrial pallets into a specific large bin type and smaller pallets into small bins.
Storage Unit:
In the system, a storage unit record consists of a header and at least one material data record (quant data record).
The header contains information which is relevant for the entire storage unit and includes the:
Storage unit number
Storage unit type (SUT) of the storage unit
Storage bin in which the storage unit is currently located
Status, which provides current information about the storage unit
Specific information about the stock contained in a storage unit is found in the material data record. The material record is already familiar to you in the existing system as a quant data record. For SU management, this information can be managed at the storage unit level.
The following graphics illustrate how WM handles storage bins with and without the use of storage unit management. For these examples, storage bins are displayed in which 200 boxes of red pencils and 50 boxes of blue pencils are stored. The stock is distributed on two pallets.
Hope this will help.

Naveen.

Hardware (storage) consideration for RAC 10gR2?

Dear experts!
We have to implement availibility for our database at a customer - RAC 10gR2. We don't have really high database workload and large amount of data (max. 30 GB).
So I would prefer a 2 node RAC. What are the requirements for such a "low level" RAC - specially for storage? The two nodes are in different rooms so I need 2 "storage devices" to be safety against fire.
We have to use:
- OS: Win2003 or 2008
- Oracle Standard Edition --> ASM
So could you please give me praxis tips about hardware consideration (components needed)?
Thanks
Markus

Do you mean if I have a two node cluster and one node fails my whole cluster is offline? In comparison to a three node cluster this works how? Could you please give me more detailed information about this?No, that's not what I meant. I was talking about potentially split brain problems. 2 nodes looses communication with one another. How does a node now know whether it is at fault, or the other node? Does it restart or not?
That said - one of the RACs we have, is a small 2 node RAC. And I bet there are many more like that out there. So it used. However... I would prefer to have at least 3 nodes.
One problem for example is failover load. Simplistic example. When 1 node fails, its processes fails over to the other node. Assuming an even spread of all processes, the other node now gets a 100% load increase. This can be nasty if the remaining node is not fully able to deal with that increase. In a 3 node setup, the remaining 2 nodes would have dealt with an easier managed 50% load increase.
I don't agree with you that linux is cheaper - it depends on the customer's infrastructure. It doesn't make sense to run a linux server in an only windows environment with only windows administrators! And oracle is available for many platforms, so this restriction shouldn't be a problem.People can learn. In fact, I would expect that administrators would want to expand their knowledge. That is IMO not the primary deciding factor. Linux is by far more a capable o/s in the cluster environment. One only have to look at the top 500 clusters in the world. 443 of these are running Linux. That is 88.6% of the biggest and baddest clusters in the world. How many are running Windows? A measly 5 clusters.
No comparison. No contest.
Dataguard was already in evolution - but therefor I need oracle enterprise edition. RAC in standard edition is for free (with the limitation of 4 nodes and 4 cpus - but this should meet our requirements :-)).Never done a SE RAC. Even our small 2 node baby RAC is a TB database. Creating a RAC for a 30GB database..? I'm not sure what the expectations are. This is really a minute database and can be full cached in server memory. Can easily be virtualised (and with that, fallen over between machines). So ito of performance, scalability and even redundancy, there are a number of other options besides RAC.
For interconnect I would use gigabit as minimum.I personally recommend using Infiniband. GigE is at its maximum. Ceiling has been reached. IB QDR is now available and provide 40Gbit pipes. When running IPoIB, you can have 65K MTU, aka super jumbo frames. Or, using Oracle 11g, you can use RDS instead which is a lot faster than IP.
As far as I see the biggest problem is the storage...Ito costs for a low cost solution, yep. Especially when only needing a few GB of storage as oppose to a few TB. And instead, the money spend on this, could perhaps be far better spend on a virtualised solution.

Test RMAN consistent "as copy" backup outside of ASM (RAC)

Hi!
We have create RMAN consistent backup in our RAC (ASM with FRA) environement.
Backup steps looks like:
alter system set cluster_database=false scope=spfile sid='HAC4';
srvctl stop database -d HACThen we start RMAN backup script like (database is shut downed before):
run {
startup mount;
allocate channel t1 type disk format '/u01/rman_backup/HAC/cold_backup/HAC_%U';
allocate channel t2 type disk format '/u01/rman_backup/HAC/cold_backup/HAC_%U';
SET CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/u01/rman_backup/HAC/cold_backup/HAC_%F_ctl';
backup as copy database include current controlfile;
}After backup we perform:
alter system set cluster_database=true scope=spfile sid='HAC4';
shutdown immediate;and later
srvctl start database -d HACBackup files from this backup are placed on local disk area accessed by node4, where HAC4 SID is on.
We transfer those backup files to tape on some schedule basis...
Now we want to test this backup.
Scenario:
Because we have consistent backup we think that we can perform restore from it (from that disk files) and from it ONLY!
Our problem is that all the time restore is using ASM files, so we are not sure is our backup valid.
So, how to prevent RMAN restore/recover process from using any ASM file - just to use our consistent backup data?
Please some script example for that....
Our config:
Oracle 10gR2.0.4 PS3 (CRS, ASM, database)
Linux Rhel 5.3 IA64 on "raw devices" (not raw disks)
THX
Damir

We'll...look this restore for our "as copy" consitent backup. Assume that ${BKUP_DEST} is env variable in bash script which points to same place where backup was done. Here is restore part:
run {
startup force nomount;
RESTORE CONTROLFILE from '${BKUP_DEST}/HAC_20090916T152408_u5kpd8le_1_1_post_ctl';
alter database mount;
sql "alter session set NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=American";
allocate channel t1 type disk format '${BKUP_DEST}/HAC_%U';
allocate channel t2 type disk format '${BKUP_DEST}/HAC_%U';
restore database FROM TAG='TAG20090916T152532' ;
release channel t1;
release channel t2;
}where
TAG='TAG20090916T152532'is tag that was done in backup. This is done from "ac copy" backup. But when we run:
run {
allocate channel t1 type disk format '${BKUP_DEST}/HAC_%U';
allocate channel t2 type disk format '${BKUP_DEST}/HAC_%U';
recover database FROM TAG='TAG20090916T152532' ;
release channel t1;
release channel t2;
}RMAN is using archive logs from ASM....and we want to use only files from "as copy" backup-remember we test "as copy" consistent backup.
If we do not run "recover" part then we cannot open database!?
(i.e. alter database open resetlogs).
Hope now is all more clear..
Regards,
Damir
P.S.
Either our backup script is not OK or restore/recover script is bad....
Unfortunatelly we do not know what?

When I connect my iPhone (5s) to my computer it says that it's storage is full and that I have over 4,000 pictures even though I have deleted all of them. It won't allow me to add music or anything else either because it says my phone is full.

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

If they were put there via iTunes sync process, then simply untick the Music box before syncing again.

Moved my library to an external hard drive. Now I get this message when trying to import video: Cannot start ingest because there is no storage location set. Please set one under Storage in Preferences and try again.

I recently moved my iMovie Library and all of its contents to an external hard drive. I then erased the library and all of its contents from my iMac HD and created a new library. Now when I try to import video from my DV camera I get this message: Cannot start ingest because there is no storage location set. Please set one under Storage in Preferences and try again. There is no way to set a storage location in Preferences. I have chosen an Event in the middle drop down box. But it still will not import. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My iTunes library is set up the way I said in the top post and works totally fine.
Yes, and that is the default structure to which I was referring. iTunes will organize it that way automatically unless people do start changing settings (in which case they should know what they are doing and how iTunes works with library files and media structure.)
Both ways work, the advantages of mine would be that should iTunes try looking fo a library, it will always be in the default location.
It makes people think they have to change media location in preferences. They do not unless they want to relocate media only and leave other things on their internal drive (in which case there is no point in copying library files to the external, and you certainly wouldn't want to then delete them from your internal).
Downside is that then should someone move their iTunes library to anther computer they need to remember to get those library files on the external hard drive.
Just copy the whole iTunes folder and it will get the library files to the other drive in one step, along with all the other files.
Your post has good stuff but it makes a move appear intimidating and look like people have to do a lot of organizing to move the collection. It also throws in extra steps (namely altering preference settings) that could cause confusion or even make a mess of things. If people leave iTunes to default preference settings (which most people do) the move summarizes into a short line: Copy a folder and hold an extra button the next time you start iTunes.
Note that the instructions in the link I provided earlier do also include many steps, but those are to ensure that everybody does have it all organized correctly before simply copying the iTunes folder. In the end it is just a simple action.

Hello Pushtheriver,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iCloud storage issues:

This may also help:
Understanding iOS device capacity
You can sync and download many different types of content on your device. Some types of content (such as music and videos) typically take more space than others (such as notes and books). The amount of space taken by an app depends on the app's purpose; complex or graphically intense apps usually take more space than simpler apps.
If your device is near its capacity, you can remove some of the less used content to make room for more.

HT4847 my iphone storage is full and I do not have enough storage for upgrades or to take photos/videos, etc. My icloud is on for photos/videos. Can I safely delete them on my phone to make storage room knowing I can access them on my icloud?

My iphone storage is full and I do not have enough storage for upgrades or to take more photos/videos, download apps, etc. I do have my photos/videos ON for icloud sync but not sure if I can safely delete them from my iphone to make room. And if I can delete them from my phone how do I access them on my icloud? I logged in for the first time and do not see where to access photos/videos?

You can't just store photos on icloud. They can be included as part of a backup or when using photo stream to sync photos from one device to another, but 1) photo stream keeps photos for up to 30 days after which they are deleted from the servers, and 2) never rely on a backup to icloud as a way of storing photos. (When photos are deleted from the device, they are no longer on recent backups, and older backups get deleted in short time.)
When it comes to photos, users should sync them to a computer for archiving. Then they can delete the photos from the device, as the computer will have copies.
Photos in backups on icloud cannot be viewed on icloud.

My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff. Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not? I'm just not sure what I really should back up each night and what doesn't really matter. I know my photo's should back up, but other than that, I'm not really sure.
I have taken some pics off and videos and appt, but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud. I'm starting to wonder if its a glitch with my personal phone. Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

Only you can decide what's critical to back up. One option is to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your backup in settings.
You might try going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll), then look at the size of your next backup. If it doesn't go down significantly, something else is wrong.

my pictures from my i phone 4s wont import from auto play. a message keeps coming up saying there is an error and a device is not working properly. also i have tried going into the internal storage to copy and paste them but that wont work either. the page either stops responding or the picture simply dont copy. does any1 have any idea why this is happening. it has never happened before and only seems to be happening since i started using i cloud storage instead of synching my phone with the lap top.

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

There's a not enough storage message appearing and I can't get rid of it.
