Rman backup : what are the preconditions if any...?
hello all,
I have the following script for executing an rman backup in Unix server :
rman target=sys/change_on_install nocatalog <<EOF
RUN
allocate channel c1 type disk format '/orabackup/rman/b_%u_%s_%p';
allocate channel c2 type disk format '/orabackup/rman/b_%u_%s_%p';
allocate channel c3 type disk format '/orabackup/rman/b_%u_%s_%p';
set limit channel c1 kbytes 400000;
set limit channel c2 kbytes 400000;
set limit channel c3 kbytes 400000;
sql 'ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT';
backup incremental level 0 database;
backup archivelog all delete input;
copy current controlfile to '/orabackup/rman/contrl01.bak';
release channel c1;
release channel c2;
release channel c3;
Can any one tell me what are the preconditions/precautions if any to be taken before executing the above script such as whether the database should be open or mounted etc.
thanks in advance
thomaskprakash
database should be open or mounted etc.Definately you would be taking online backups, therefore, database up and running.
Database must be in archivelog mode.

Anyone tried using Billings 3 in Yosemite - what are the issues, if any?
Hi
Logic Express is essentially the same as Logic Pro, minus a few Instrument plugins and a few Effects Plugins (there are some other slight differences, but nothing that is likely to cause any significant problems).
You/she will be able to open Pro projects in Express fine, but if any of the 'missing plugins' have been used these will not be found in Express. For Instruments plugs, this might cause a problem because the tracks will not play unless a replacement plugin is selected. For Effects plugins, you might be missing some, but the project should play OK, just sound a little different.
Should these issues become a problem, one solution would be to use the "Bounce in Place" feature to print these tracks as audio temporarily in Logic Pro.
Logic Studio (Logic Pro) comes with all the Jampacks, Express does not. If any loops from the Jampacks have been used, you should be OK as long as the project has been "Saved with Assets.. including Imported Audio". This will copy any loops used into the project folder.
In short, nothing insurmountable.

What are the milestone of any project
what are the milestone of any project ?????
can u explain each and every step and if there is any sub step invole
and with few activity work involed in each step
thanksHi Hanumant,
In ASAP methodology each step is one of the milestone in the project.
ASAP stands for Accelerated SAP. Its purpose is to help design SAP
implementation in the most efficient manner possible. Its goal is to effectively
optimize time, people, quality and other resources, using a proven methodology to
implementation.
ASAP focuses on tools and training, wrapped up in a five-phase process oriented
road map for guiding implementation.
The road map is composed of five well-known consecutive phases:
u2022 Phase 1 Project Preparation
u2022 Phase 2 Business Blueprint
u2022 Phase 3 Realization
u2022 Phase 4 Final Preparation
u2022 Phase 5 Go-Live and support
In today's post we will discuss the first phase.
Phase 1 : Project Preparation
Phase 1 initiates with a retrieval of information and resources. It is an important
time to assemble the necessary components for the implementation. Some
important milestones that need to be accomplished for phase 1 include
u2022 Obtaining senior-level management/stakeholder support
u2022 identifying clear project objectives
u2022 architect an efficient decision-making process
u2022 creating an environment suitable for change and re-engineering
u2022 building a qualified and capable project team.
Senior level management support:
One of the most important milestones with phase 1 of ASAP is the full agreement
and cooperation of the important company decision-makers - key stake holders
and others. Their backing and support is crucial for a successful implementation.
Clear project objectives:
be concise in defining what your objectives and expectations are for this venture.
Vague or unclear notions of what you hope to obtain with SAP will handicap the
implementation process. Also make sure that your expectations are reasonable
considering your company's resources. It is essential to have clearly defined
ideas, goals and project plans devised before moving forward.
An efficient decision making process:
One obstacle that often stalls implementation is a poorly constructed decision-
making process. Before embarking on this venture, individuals need to be clearly
identified. Decide now who is responsible for different decisions along the way.
From day one, the implementation decision makers and project leaders from
each area must be aware of the onus placed on them to return good decisions
quickly.
Environment suitable for change and re engineering:Your team must be willing to
accept that, along with new SAP software, things are going to change, the
business will change, and information technology enabling the business will
change as well. By implementing SAP, you will essentially redesign your current
practices to model more efficient or predefined best business practices as
espoused by SAP. Resistance to this change will impede the progress of your
implementation.
ASAP- Second Phase- Business Blueprint
SAP has defined a business blueprint phase to help extract pertinent information
about your company that is necessary for implementation. These blueprints are in
the form of questionnaires that are designed to probe for information that
uncovers how your company does business. As such, they also serve to
document the implementation. Each business blueprint document essentially
outlines your future business processes and business requirements. The kinds
of questions asked are germane to the particular business function, as seen in
the following sample questions:
1) What information do you capture on a purchase order?
2) What information is required to complete a purchase order?
Accelerated SAP question and answer database:
The question and answer database (QADB) is a simple although aging tool
designed to facilitate the creation and maintenance of your business blueprint.
This database stores the questions and the answers and serves as the heart of
your blue print. Customers are provided with a customer input template for each
application that collects the data. The question and answer format is standard
across applications to facilitate easier use by the project team.
Issues database:
Another tool used in the blueprinting phase is the issues database. This
database stores any open concerns and pending issues that relate to the
implementation. Centrally storing this information assists in gathering and then
managing issues to resolution, so that important matters do not fall through the
cracks. You can then track the issues in database, assign them to team
members, and update the database accordingly.
ASAP Phase- 3 - Realization:
With the completion of the business in phase 2, "functional" experts are now ready
to begin configuring SAP. The Realization phase is broken in to two parts.
1) Your SAP consulting team helps you configure your baseline system, called the
baseline configuration.
2) Your implementation project team fine-tunes that system to meet all your
business and process requirements as part of the fine tuning configuration.
The initial configuration completed during the base line configuration is based on
the information that you provided in your blueprint document. The remaining
approximately 20% of your configuration that was not tackled during the baseline
configuration is completed during the fine tuning configuration. Fine tuning usually
deals with the exceptions that are not covered in baseline configuration. This final
bit of tweaking represents the work necessary to fit your special needs.
Configuration Testing:
With the help of your SAP consulting team, you segregate your business
processes into cycles of related business flows. The cycles serve as independent
units that enable you to test specific parts of the business process. You can also
work through configuring the SAP implementation guide (IMG). A tool used to
assist you in configuring your SAP system in a step by step manner.
Knowledge Transfer:
As the configuration phase comes to a close, it becomes necessary for the
Project team to be self-sufficient in their knowledge of the configuration of your
SAP system. Knowledge transfer to the configuration team tasked with system
maintenance (that is, maintenance of the business processes after Go-live)
needs to be completed at this time.
In addition, the end users tasked with actually using the system for day-to-day
business purposes must be trained.
ASAP Methodology - Phase 4 - Final Preparation:
As phase 3 merges into phase 4, you should find yourselves not only in the midst
of SAP training, but also in the midst of rigorous functional and stress testing.
Phase 4 also concentrates on the fine tuning of your configuration before Go-live
and more importantly, the migration of data from your old system or systems to
SAP.
Workload testing (including peak volume, daily load, and other forms of stress
testing), and integration or functional testing are conducted to ensure the accuracy
of your data and the stability of your SAP system. Because you should have begun
testing back in phase 2, you do not have too far to go until Go-live. Now is an
important time to perform preventative maintenance checks to ensure optimal
performance at your SAP system.
At the conclusion of phase 4, take time to plan and document a Go-live strategy.
Preparation for Go-live means preparing for your end-users questions as they
start actively working on the new SAP system.
ASAP - Phase 5 - Go-live and Support:
The Go-live milestone is itself is easy to achieve; a smooth and uneventful Go-live
is another matter altogether. Preparation is the key, including attention to what-if
scenarios related not only to the individual business processes deployed but also
to the functioning of technology underpinning these business processes and
preparation for ongoing support, including maintenance contracts and
documented processes and procedures are essential.
I hope it will help you,
Regards,
Murali. -
I have been searching for a definitive answer to this for days and cannot get anything useful.
My video camera records to AVCHD format which is 24mbps H.264 plus audio (I record audio separately so audio is not a concern). I use the Adobe CC suite on Windows. I do a lot of green-screen work.
I have read about many intermediate codecs designed for editing video. These include Avid's DNxHD, Apple's ProRes, GoPro's Cineform, MXF OP1a, among others. From what I understand, these formats provide excellent features to help video editors do their work.
I have been able to edit AVCHD files directly using Premiere Pro and After Affects.
My question is, what benefits, if any, would I get if I transcoded my content from AVCHD to one of the intermediate formats before I begin editing? Would it speed up Adobe's software? Would it provide better quality in the end? Would it make various effects function better?
Ultimately, all the video I make is going to be encoded in h.264 for web distribution.
Please note: I am not asking for the easiest or most obvious workflow (which is to just to work directly with AVCHD files). I want to know if I can gain benefits in transcoding to another format before I being post-production and what those benefits are specifically for each of the various intermediate codecs.
Thank you.Like almost everything, there's tradeoffs. Transcoding to a really high-end single-file codec like Cineon or Cineform would mean that say the file size could be somewhat larger on disc ... more data to read ... however, LESS work by the other subsystems to get those io oo ii oo oo io io io oi bits changed into "video" on the monitor. There are several articles and tutorials out there on this that give really useful information. And there are a LOT of people that put something out because they personally think this or that codec is THE proper way a professional should work, and any other codec is nearly obscene in use. Right, whatever. They're all tools.
As shooternz showed ... properly shot AVCHD can be green-screened beautifully, and as there are a LOT of the "pro" cameras in use shooting that wrapper, there are a lot of people that simply process in that. There are others that automatically transcode everything to ProRes 4444 before editing because they feel that gives them the best, safest "space" for their pixels to live. Pick any major codec/wrapper, it will have adherents.
I've tried just a bit of greening just to play with it ... and got rather intriguing results. It reminded me of starting out trying to do good still portraits on high-key sweep backgrounds without getting "haze" or scatter from too-much-light coming back at the lens while getting the right exposure on the subject and keeping the entire high-key area of the sweep the same white ... it's rather daunting at first. After we mastered it, we could do it at will ... first time every time. Green-screening is a similar thing. Perhaps on steroids, but similar. HOW it's shot is incredibly important to being able to post-process both cleanly and quickly. I've seen quite a few comments about this here and elsewhere ... and though there are clean-up & masking techniques one does need to master, clearly ... one needs clean footage to be able to quickly get clean post work. So many people have noted that after spending so much time working on their masking & color-correction of bits here & there they also got their shooting skills up. And found that suddenly they didn't need anywhere near the clean-up skills or time spent.
So I'd think off-hand that the AVCHD isn't the most pressing problem here ... that a bit of experience in the absolute tight control of exposure and lighting in the shooting setup may well take care of much of the post problems. And then you can concentrate on those skills you do need ... the fine techniques of this particular process ... to get your work completely polished.
And listening to shooternz on this isn't a bad thing at all ... his techniques are tight & fast. I've asked him for a number of things and have adopted every one of them.

What are the affects, if any, of magnets on iphones?
Are iphones affected by Rare Earth Magnets, or any magnets?
I suppose strong magnetic fields could cause damage to your iPhone. However, from personal experience weak magnetic fields won't hurt your iPhone. I have used a case with a magnetic clasp for about a year and the only side affect is that I need to re-calibrate the compass when I try to use the compass app.

What are the best external backup battery choices for the iPod Touch 4G?
Hello,
I am so disappointed with the battery life on my iPod Touch 4G, even when I turn off location services and notifications and put it in airplane mode.
As such, I realize that I am going to have to get an external backup battery, even though I don't like the idea of carrying around yet another item.
What are the best choices out there, especially any ultra-portable (aka small and non-bulky) ones? I came across this Juice Pack Air - iPod Touch 4G Case, which seems like the perfect solution, but it is on back order and seems to have been so for a good amount of time. Who knows when it will be in stock again.
TIA for any and all help!bumping up (I hope doing so is allowed.)

What are the steps applying incremental backups to standby database 11g
Hi All,
I have built 11g none ASM standby database from ASM RAC Database. Now I want to apply incremental backup to the standby database from primary but not sure how to do it. I tried following and I had an error “ORA-01103: database name 'ins-prim' in control file is not 'ins-sec'”
1- I have configured standby database with RMAN backup.
2- After finishing installation, I took a incremental backup from primary server(ins-prim) and moved incremental backup and control file to the standby (ins-sec) database
3- I stared standby database nomount mode
4- restore controlfile from “incremental backup location in standby database”
5- alter database mount; and got this error
“ORA-01103: database name 'ins-prim' in control file is not 'ins-sec'”
What are the steps applying incremental backups to standby database with 11g?
Thank youI build the database from backup and changed from ASM to none ASM and changed location of data files and logfiles. I think this changes makes the standby database as logical one.
You can a have a physical standby with different locations for everything (redo/controlfiles/datafiles), ASM and no ASM etc. I have a such a configuration in production (10gR2)
I build the database from backup
Are you sure you have a standby ? Ins-sec receives the archivelog files from the primary ? How did you proceed to build this database ? I suspect you don't have a standby at all ! If you have duplicated the database ins-sec and ins-pri are independent databases and you won't be able to apply an incremental backup (your script was not correct but it is another story) -
What are the features of RMAN
Then, by entering google.com, type "rman features" and you'll face tons of documents
Or refer to documentation:
Using RMAN gives you access to several data backup and recovery techniques and features not available at all with user-managed backup and recovery. The most noteworthy are:
Incremental backups, which provide more compact backups (storing only changed blocks) and faster datafile media recovery (reducing the need to apply redo during datafile media recovery)
Block media recovery, in which a datafile with only a small number of corrupt data blocks can be repaired without being taken offline or restored from backup
Unused block compression, where RMAN can in some cases skip unused datafile blocks during backups
Binary compression, which uses a compression mechanism integrated into the Oracle database server to reduce the size of backups
Encrypted backups, which uses encryption capabilities integrated into the Oracle database to store backups in an encrypted format
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/intro005.htm#i1019200
Moreover, you can refer to [Feature Comparison of Backup Methods|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/intro010.htm#i1005205] to find out main difference between RMAN and User managed backup and recovery

What are the steps are Shared services backup and schema back
Hi
I am new in Hyperion .. can anybody tell me what are the steps are in the shared services back up and schema back up ...
Regards
PraetorianIf it is fora a demo i would advise you to extract all the files (metadata, Rule, Security, Data forms, Grids, ICP reports, Data etc) so that this can be restored on any machine from which you wish to give demo.
If you which to take database backup it will take backup of all the HFM applications in that server. And when you restore the backup it will refresh all the applications which might result in changes to other applications which you may not want.
For taking backup of database/schema go to the udl file and identify the schema for which you wish to take backup.
Then type the command to take DB backup.
Kindly mark the post helpful if you find so.

Should I just ask for my money back??? If it is a simple repair do I just literally push the disc in, push the power button and hold down the C button?
That's where I would begin, too, with
Repair Disk
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.
