RMAN integrated with Tivoli Storage Manager

Environment
===========
Two Node RAC Production DBs on 10.2.0.4
Platform : Solaris
RMAN is the only backup tool i've ever worked with. I've come across OTN articles which discuss TSM along with RMAN. Is there any advantage at all in using TSM with RMAN ? Or, Is it just marketing gimmick by IBM?

Our strategy:
1--Monday ------------------->Level 0 backup (1:00am)
2--Tuesday----->     Level1
3--Wednesday----->     Level1
4--Thursday------------------>Level 0 backup (1:00am)
5--Friday----->     Level1
6--Saturday----->     Level1
0--Sunday ----->     Level1Our RMAN backup pieces got to an NFS mount . Every monday morning the Level 0 backup is copied to Tape by Sysadmins and kept for 3 months. So, where does Tivoli storage manager come into picture ? Does TSM do copying the backup pieces from Disk to Tape part ?

Hyperion integration with Tivoli Access Manager

Hello All:
Does Hyperion supports using pre-authenticated users from IBM Tivoli Access Manager. Please can you point me to any documentation explaining the integration procedure.
TIA.

Suggest you read sections 2,3,4 of the below document:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/hyp_security_guide.pdf
It doesn't come out and say that this type of agent is supported -- you can potentially log a case with Oracle and they may be able to answer you however as it's not documented I would suggest it's not supported.
If you decided to go forward with this then you need to find someone else who is using it successfully and ask them how it is working out.
Presuming they didn't change too much from 9.3.1 to 11.1 (9.5) then you will find many many issues with SSO working.
IT saving a user a login box or two and making the application non-usable just isn't a good direction to go.

XSAN and TSM (Tivoli Storage Manager)

Hello,
I wanted to know if anybody had already used the TSM (Tivoli Storage Manager) solution from IBM to backup an XSAN?
From what I have read on the IBM tech guide, the solution is fully compatible.
Best regards,
Cédric

Hello Cedric.
I have used IBM TSM 5.2 with XSAN for a whole year without problems.
Our Xsan environment have 15 mixed INTEL&PPC Workstation, 2 Intel MDC, OSX-OSXSERVER 10.4.9, XSAN 1.4.1
We have a 3584 LTO library with 2 frames, 4 drives LTO2 and 2 LTO3. But we use only LTO3 with TSM from MAC. Our IBM TSM Server is a PSeries 630.
Now we are looking for a MAM system that can manage a proxy version of our archive. Parcial restores features could be very helpful for us.

Integration with SAP Records Management

Dear SAP gurus,
We are in SRM 7 EHP 1 with backend ECC 6 EHP 5. We are exploring PPS (Procurement for Public Sector) feature in SRM. We see that using PPS we can have integration with SAP Records Management. To be honest, I never see SAP Records Management so we want to confirm the functionality. Our legacy system require a electroning filing system, in which all documents related to procurement is scanned (whether it is document from system, or the one created manually), and then stored in a server in a pdf format.
Does SAP Records Management have this functionality in which it stores the pdf doc inside one server? If not, what is exactly the functionality of SAP Records Management?
Best regards,
John

Oracle Suggested Backup, to tape only - Tivoli Storage Manager

I´ve been asked to cancel future backups to disk and to setup oracle´s suggested backup to the tape device only (which underwater is the tdpo from Tivoli´s storage manager).
This way the expensive disks can be freed from recovery data.
I´ve had my share of problems with the tdpo, but besides the problem of this gateway driver between RMAN and TSM I would like to know if this is best for the whole suggested backup strategy.
Somehow I´m not convinced in backing up to "tape" devices only; for it is slower than local disks, and because we had problems before with the driver, but there may be a lot more reasosn why I should or should not accept this desired goal to be best for our company.
I hope some of you can help me straighten my vision on this.
Robin

The biggest problems I think we might face are the
big question "who is responsible for what", and the
administration of non Oracle systems/methods to
perform backupsi have no problems with such a setup. i provide the rman skript which will be called by TSM.
the TSM admins notify me if the backup failed. retention on TSM side is disabled, only RMAN deletes obsolete/expired backups.
All I want to care about is performing a backup to
Disk, or Disk and Tape, or just Tape from within
Oracle/RMAN and read the ouput from here.
Now where these external tape labraries like TSM come
in there will be more administration for the total
handling of a backup job. It´s not only RMAN, but a
tdpo and a TSM server which need to be monitored
closely. of course TSM has to be monitored but if you already have invested an infrastructure you should use it for every type of backups.
Sadly Oracle has yet to come up with it´s secure
backup for TSM systems, but I think it would be best
if I could let Oracle solely in charge of its own
backups.if TSM retention is disabled, RMAN has absolute control.
Then again, I don´t know if anyone has good
experiences with TSM as the only backup provider for
Oracle backups. (so no disk backups)it works very good. use staged pools on TSM. primary pool should be diskpool, secondary a tapepool. you can configure TSM to move the data from disk to tape based on fill level or age.

Java class integration with Oracle Identity Manager 9.1.0.2

Hello Friends,
I have a java class that is responsible for sending notifications, my question is how do the relationship of this class with the Oracle Identity Manager 9.1.0.2 so you can take the class and notify users when an application is approved or rejected.
Any recommendation for this process.
Thanks for the support
Edited by: JLK on Jun 12, 2012 5:20 PM

Hi
Java class integration with OIM happen through concept of adapters. You can go through OIM documentation of how to create adapters.
In your case you should create a process task adapetrs adn attach it on the Approved response code in your approval process.
Desingn Console --> Process management --> Process definition --> <Apprlication Process Ex: AD User>.
Alternatively you can also send notification using OIM OOTB email templates.

ISE integration with Mobile Device Management ( MDM ) help required

Dear Techies,
     Am here bring to your notice an different issue and no much resources to support even in PEC or Cisco Document.
     We are conduction a Proof Of Concept (PoC) on Secure Bring Your Own Device ( BYOD ) using Cisco ISE and gonna test all the scenarios like Wired, Wireless and VPN user access.
Setup Brief :
=========
      Our Setup has ISE VM acting as Admin, Monitor and Profiling Device, we have NAC 3315 physical Appliance as Inline posture Device, Wireless LAN controller, Access point and the Identity source as Microsof Active Directory
     Having Plans to Integrate Mobile Device Management ( MDM ) and Citrix VDI setup also.
Activity Brief:
=========
     As of now we have tested the Wired Scenario Authentication and authorization for guest users and gonna carry out the profiling and posture.
Clarifications Required
================
Wired Scenario - Require some configuration / steps on how to carryout posture for the guest wired users i.e. LAPTOP.
Wireless Scenario
MDM can be integrated to ISE ?
How the MDM can be integrated to Cisco ISE configuration or Guide to show the same?
What is the demarcation between MDM and ISE ( i.e. What is the role of ISE and MDM on Mobile Devices ) ?
If MDM is available so then when the control of ISE ends, does MDM do management or ISE will do management of the devices ?
Is MDM will do client provisioning or ISE should do ?
Is MDM send or update patches of Mobile Devices ?
As of now these are the scenarios, kindly revert if any good documents to show this or share your expertise on the Integration Part.
Thanks for Reading...
Arun

I would like to avail your valuable inputs to understand on the Client provisioning part for the Mobile Devices/ Laptop. I understand from your reply that MDM integration is not available in the current release ISE 1.1 - That is correct.
Kindly let me know your views or any documents on the following scenarios with the current release in mind
1. User with Mobile devices connecting to Wireless ( both Employee and Guest ) , How the Flow differs for the Employee and Guest. How the client provisioning is done ( i.e. Like Posturing or Compliance Check ).
The posturing and compliance check is done based on the user authentication information (i.e. AD memberOf vs Guest user) combined with the users endpoint (windows, mac osx, or a mobile device), ISE then has a few decisions to make based on the authorization policies. For example, if a Domain User coming from a Windows 7 machine joins the network, then can either use the nac agent, or the web agent. Then you can scan for registry settings, file settings, program requirements, hotfix compliance...and the list goes on. If the user fails a check then you can either assign an acl for the user so they only have guest access, or you can place them into a remediation vlan the options are entirely up to the requirements and however the solution is implemented.
2. User with Laptop connecting to Wireless ( both Employee and Guest ). How the client provisioning is done ( i.e. Like Posturing   or Compliance Check ).
Guests are usually redirected to the guest portal which they authenticate and their user group falls within the Guest container that is on the ISE internal database, that is usually coupled with an authorization profile that grants them internet access. For the client provisioning, that is usually done based on the operating system, via profiling (dhcp, and user agent string., netmap...etc) and can be fine tuned for all laptops or to a specific set of users based on their group membership.
3. What are advantages of having ISE also in place for Mobile devices, since most of the Mobile related tasks ( like Authentication, Authorization, Profiling and Posture ) are carried out by MDM. I am checking for the significant advantage of having ISE for Client network having only Mobile devices. Kindly clarify.
Currently the advantage of Cisco ISE is that it supports profiling within wireless and really fits well within a network that has mostly Cisco products since they are all part of of the Borderless security initiative being driven on the backend. The product teams for wireless, wired, security (vpn..etc) and ISE are pretty close in building their solutions so that you can get connected with any device any where (sorry for the sales pitch). The latests wireless code is improving and is going to have support similar to the ios sensor for wired devices where dhcp, cdp, and other attributes can be sent in the radius packet for better profiling decisions. With integration for an MDM platform coming soon, and also support for TACACS rumored (have to verify with your account rep) you have options that really stand out from a unit that only supports MDM. Cisco ISE also comes with a wireless product ID so that makes the budget work when it comes to deploying ISE if you arent looking for enforcement on your wired devices.
4. Do you recommend 802.1X Authentication to use for the Employee and Contractor? The Guest user authentication as Open ?
For internal users and vendors the best option by far is dot1x, almost all operating systems are capable of performing dot1x and the 1.1.1 MR has a piece now that can provision the supplicant for the users, by using scep to enroll certificates or configure peap settings.
There is a feature within the guest portal that allows you to statically assign guests into endpoint group, that feature is called device registration web authentication. It seems like an open network but uses mac filtering to assign these devices to an endpoint without requiring users to enter any credentials. They are presented with an AUP page, once they accept their mac address is mapped to the endpoint group
5. How can we ensure the Encryption of traffic from the Guest user to the NAD ( Network Access devices ) ?
This may be a wireless question but I am sure the encryption is done using AES and using dot1x as the key management here is a brief background for this - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a00807f42e9.shtml#L2
You can also use the anyconnect client which can provide macsec which is layer 2 encryption for wired - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/vpndevc/ps6032/ps6094/ps6120/qa_c67-622477_ns1049_Networking_Solutions_Q_and_A.html
6. We are also looking for VDI ( Citrix, VMware ) solution for the client ( both Employee and Guest ) , how ISE can play a role in securing the VDI environment.
For most thin clients you can perform dot1x authentication on the device itself, however that is something the manufacturer will have to support. This is a little gray for me.
7. Is that any integration required with Citrix or VMware. How the VDI can be offered based on the User role ( i.e. Employee, Contractor or Guest ), since Guest database is available only with ISE, how the checks are made from the VDI environment.
IN ISE there is an identity sequence which can authenticate users in AD first, if the user is not found then it can look in the internal database.
Our solution demands MDM in the integrated solution, As on today ISE cant be integrated with MDM. so what kind of solution we can propose to have MDM and Cisco ISE .Do the clients now enter the network should have already installed the MDM agent (or) any other way of pushing the same to the Client.
Today there is no integration between the devices, the last release time I heard was December for this feature. However it would be best to confirm with your Cisco Account rep on this issue.
Thanks,
Tarik Admani

Siebel Integration with SUN Access Manager

Hi Guys,
We are trying to integrate siebel with Sun access Manager.
I have gone thro the sun site but unable to find any documentation and policy agent to download.
Please guide me where can i find documenttaion and policy agent software download.
Thanks
Regards,
Mohit

There is no agent to integrate with Siebel directly. However it should be possible by using Sun web server or IIS agent. Here is an old document that may still apply.
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6901-10/Chapter.html#wp19548
There was more detailed integration document on Siebel web site. But it has been removed after Oracle acquisition (http://www.siebel.com/partners/portal/docs/integrationbriefs/siebel77_sjsam_tib.pdf)

Siebel Integration with Lotus Knowledge Management Tool

Hi,
I am currently working on Siebel 8.1 and have a requirement to integrate it with Lotus Knowledge Management tool.
Does Oracle provide OOTB adapters for integration for Lotus KM just like Inquira?
Please let me know.
Regards.

Hi,
I am not able to find any information regarding integration of Lotus Knowlegde Management with Siebel.
Unless someone else in this forum has an answer, I recommend you to open a Service Request in support.oracle.com to confirm if such integration exists, and if not ask for a product enhancement request for this integration or request another solution that may be suitable. You can also contact IBM to verify if they have performed any validation using both products.
Thanks,

Migrating Netware to VM with Portlock Storage Manager

We are currently in the process of migrating out NetWare 6.5 SP8 boxes to a virtual environment using PortLock Storage Manager. We have successful migrated a number of NetWare servers already. However, when we tried to migrate our BorderManager server using the same approach as the other Netware boxes. The server prompted us with a message stating that there was a problem and to resolve this we need to run MM UPGRADE PARTITIONS. (Note this box is running NetWare 6.5 SP07)
First, what does MM UPGRADE PARTITIONS do?
Second, can this be ran with no down time?
Third, what are the potential problems with running this command?
Thank you,
Jon

The message from Portlock Storage Manager means that your NetWare server has NetWare partitions formatted with an older specification. For NetWare 6.5, NetWare partitions no longer have a HotFix or Mirror partition area. The "mm upgrade partitions" updates the on disk format of a partition. Novell documentation states that this command can be run on running servers with mounted volumes. However, we recommend backup up the server first and then rebooting after the command is executed.
Novell documentation on this command:
Novell Documentation
You should also update the media format of the NSS pools:
