RMAN recover for testing

I want to plan some test runs on migrating my Oracle DB to 11.2 from 10.2. I understand i can't use the Duplicate command since i am changing versions. I realize that i need to running the commands restore and recover i can essentially do this. Well Can i change the name of my DB like i can in the duplicate command? Also is there a way to do this with the recover catalog and change the DBID of the new DB? Thanks.

Hello;
See - Database Backup and Recovery Advanced User's Guide 10g Release 2 (10.2) B14191-03

Hi,
I have been using Oracle Flashback Database for a long time in our test environments. As you already said, I recommend that you create Guaranteed Restore Points rather than rely on db_flashback_retention_target. If you are planning to use Guaranteed Restore Points only, then you don't need to turn on flashback. If flashback database is not enabled, then the database must be mounted, not open, when creating the first guaranteed restore point (or if all previously created guaranteed restore points have been dropped).
My Answers:
1) I don't think so. Flashback database is faster compared to RMAN restore/recover operations.
2) Create a backup ins not mandatory, but is a good practice.
3) I created a Nagios plugin that take this work for me, but you can check the v$recovery_file_dest view from time to time.
4) If you take a backup then I don't see a problem, but take care that flashback database relies not only on flashback log files but also in archive redo log files. I recommend you to delete archivelogs (from RMAN) after you drop the restore point.
5) Flashback log files are automatically deleted after the Guaranteed restore points are deleted.
6) Read documentation, make more tests. In 2011 I wrote an article (Brazilian Portuguese) about Flashback Database. Maybe you can take a look ;-)

RMAN recover on a different server - Verify all changes are applied

Hey everyone,
I have two database servers, Oracle 10g SE on linux. One is the 'primary', and we plan to switchover to the other newer server. In order to minimize the downtime from a duplicate database, or a full backup and restore/recover, I restored the database to the newer server using RMAN, and just continuously apply the archivelogs generated from the original database through RMAN> recover database;.
My question is, at the time when we do do the switchover, how can I ensure that all changes in the database are written to the archivelogs? I understand I can do a 'alter system switch archivelog' until all groups are inactive, but will this be enough? I've noticed that when I force an archivelog switch, the previous group still has an 'ACTIVE' status, even though I thought that the ARC process had just written out all the changes from that redo log to the archivelog?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Dear oscrub,
You can compare the system change numbers on both databases and you can also use the standby redo log files for synchronized data replication with the maximum availability or maximum protection protection levels.
I you don't want to see the archivelog as ACTIVE state you need to run the following command;
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM CHECKPOINT GLOBAL;You will manually trigger the checkpoint and the data in the redolog (active one) will be written to the database thanks to the database writer processes. With that way, you won't see the online redo log as ACTIVE state. You will see online redologs as "CURRENT" and "INACTIVE".
I hope that addresses your questions.
Regards.

RMAN Recover database error..

Hi All,
We were trying to restore and recover one of our databases. The restore went well but the recover is erroring out. Can someone please let us know what we should do to remedy this and carry on with the recovery.
We got an error when we were trying to restore the controlfile at the begining (details below), but as you can see, it did manage to restore a copy of the controlfile successfully..

Updating my .ipa in DPS App Builder for testing is not working

Hi there,
I've build my .ipa file in DPS App Builder for testing on my iPad before I publish it to the app store. No problem. I tested it and saw some modifications to make. I made the changes on my folio, updated it in the folio builder of indesign (on the cloud). Then I get back to DPS App Builder and rebuild an .ipa file from the "Manage" and "Modify" windows, it download and test my certifates, seems to work ok. Then I've created the new .ipa file (after erasing the old one on my desktop and iTunes) but when I synch it back on my iPad it's not updated. It's still the first version of my folio without the changes.
I tried to create a new app from the beginning but the single edition serial number does not work anymore. So my only solution is to update my folio, right? But what is the right way to do it? Am I missing something? I didn't find any answer in the step by step guide about that.
Or is it possible to delete completly the first version in DPS App Builder to recreate it without losing my single edition serial number as I didn't submit it to Apple yet?
Do I have something to do in the Folio Producer?
Thanks for your help.
Julien.

Single Edition Serial is one time use thus modification is not possible from your end directly in case you wish to use the same serial number. For such cases you need to contact DPS Support, who can get an approval on a serial number reset after reviewing the need.
In this case, I'll take this offline with you in reference to forum post # http://forums.adobe.com/message/5597607.

License for testing and production systems

Hi Experts
Can any one help me out on implementing license in my B1 System.
According to our contract we have licensed following user types:
User Type
Licensed
AddOn Access License 25
Professional User 5
Software Development Kit - Development Version 20
We have Test/development system in one hardware and Production system on different hardware. Please advice me how to request/allocate license for my test/development system and production system.
We tried creating a Test System in SAP Market place and requested license for test system. While requesting license for production system, it is found that the license is exceeded. In other words, developent system license also counted.
Please advice me on the best practices of B1 license implementation.
Thanks and regards
Ajith G

Hi,
Our customer wants to Keep the production data secure. Developers and consultants should not have the access to it.
Then you have only two options:
1.Either you should maintain a standalone b1 server for the developers and consultants to test their solutions and scenarios.
2.Otherwise you can create users in sql studio for accessing only the test database.
So that as per your requirement
All configurations and sample data will be kept in a test environment where developers and consultants can do their work.Once everything is correct Admin will do the transfer to production.
Note:New users can be created in the sql studio under Databases-><Company Db>->Security->Users, Rt.click new user

How can I redirect a request for testing?

There is no internet access on the development machine and I have written for testing purposes a servlet to simulate a web server that my app accesses.
However I need a program or way of redirecting a (secure and non-secure) url request to the local host.
i.e. the application calls either:
http://www.thewebsite.com/foo?bar=1
or
https://secure.thewebsite.com/foo?bar=1
which is then redirected to:

How can this be done?

Hi, thanks for the replies. I thought about that
(it's a windows machine) but there is still a couple
of problems.
1. I can't specify the sub-directory can I?No, but your webserver can prob. do that.
2. I want to handle a secure request but have it also
go to the same locationssl would have to go to ssl. But setting up ssl normally is not too hard.

Creating a folder for testing

Hi all,
This is a suggestion rather than a question.
I sometimes need a folder with a nice small well defined set of data for testing.
Rather than have to go to the DA and ask them to add a table to the Oracle database and then add it to the Business Area I found a simpler solution:
In Discoverer Administrator Create a Custom Folder.
Add SQL something like:
SELECT 'A' AS Type, 1 AS Days, 10 AS DailyCost FROM DUAL
UNION SELECT 'A',2,20 FROM DUAL
UNION SELECT 'B',3,50 FROM DUAL
UNION SELECT 'B',4,100 FROM DUAL
This will provide a table with three fields: Type, Days & DailyCost.
And four records.
Save this and give it a sensible name such as TestTable and it's then available
for running tests.
It's not too complex to create a series of Excel formulae which will take a table of values and create the SQL to be used to create a custom folder.
This is a fairly quick (if hackish) way of getting a table of values into the business area until such time as it can be put into the database by the DA.
In Excel
For a table with field names in cells A1..C1 and records in A2..C5 use the following formulae in Cells E2..E5 and then copy these four cells to get the SQL!
="SELECT "&IF(ISTEXT(A2),"'"&A2&"'",A2&"")&" AS "&A1&","&IF(ISTEXT(B2),"'"&B2&"'",B2&"")&" AS "&B1&","&IF(ISTEXT(C2),"'"&C2&"'",C2&"")&" AS "&C1& " FROM DUAL"
="UNION SELECT "&IF(ISTEXT(A3),"'"&A3&"'",A3&"")&","&IF(ISTEXT(B3),"'"&B3&"'",B3&"")&","&IF(ISTEXT(C3),"'"&C3&"'",C3&"")& " FROM DUAL"
="UNION SELECT "&IF(ISTEXT(A4),"'"&A4&"'",A4&"")&","&IF(ISTEXT(B4),"'"&B4&"'",B4&"")&","&IF(ISTEXT(C4),"'"&C4&"'",C4&"")& " FROM DUAL"
="UNION SELECT "&IF(ISTEXT(A5),"'"&A5&"'",A5&"")&","&IF(ISTEXT(B5),"'"&B5&"'",B5&"")&","&IF(ISTEXT(C5),"'"&C5&"'",C5&"")& " FROM DUAL"

Hi Suhada
Like Rod, I'm a fellow nerd and am always on the lookout for cool ways to expand and work on data inside Discoverer.
With your permission, I'd like to take this idea and make a posting on my blog (http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/). I'll give you credit for the idea but thought it might be nice if I could show it working with screenshots of Excel and inside both Discoverer Admin and Plus.
If you don't object, please send me ([email protected]) the Excel spreadhsheet that you used for your test and I'll see if I can't get something up within the next week or so.
Best wishes

Using secatt for testing entire cycle

How can we use SECATT tool for testing the entire series of transactions to be used in logistics functions?
Example :
rfq
acceptance/rejections
purchase order
goods receipt
invoice verification
goods issue
inventory posting/stock transfer
all in a sequence?

Hi Chintan Chande,
Create eCATT scripts for each transaction and export the needed values in each script and use them as input variables in the next scripts.
Like, Script P_Order for PO, take the PO number and create a GR WRT to PO number.
Like wise you could link all your scripts to form a Scenario.
After creating individual scripts for each transactions, then create a master script wherein you encapsulate/refer all of them in here..
Like REF ( RFQ , RFQ_1 ).
REF ( INVENTORY , INVENTORY_1 ).
Also, following is the link of a weblog on SDN which gives step by setp details about chaining. It also explains the terms used with necessary details -
/people/sapna.modi/blog/2006/04/18/ecatt-chaining-parameterization-creation-of-test-datatest-configuration-system-data-part-iv
Also, you may also use this thread for your reference.. Though this is not exactly what you are looking for, but it would help you in your case even.
How to store export parameters in eCATT?
Hope this helps..
Best regards,
Harsha

Best practice for testing a web form after converting to a connection file

I was using InfoPath to test a web form using a web service for the connection. I decided to deploy the form to SharePoint to make sure it worked outside of InfoPath preview mode. This required me to convert the connection to a connection file and publish
that in SharePoint. After getting all that set up, it appears to work from SharePoint.
Now I want to go back and work on the form some more. But in InfoPath it appears preview is no longer an option because the form is using a connection file. While trying to preview the form I am given a message that basically says the form will have to be
published in order for it to make the connection. This would mean I would have to overwrite the form on SharePoint just to test.
I suppose I could publish to a different form library and switch back when I'm done but it would seem that InfoPath preview should still be an option for testing. Is there something I'm missing in InfoPath that would allow me to still test with this form?

Not sure what you're doing, but previewing IP forms with data connections should be quite possible.

Strategic Data Systems - for all your SharePoint needs
To put it simply, here are the basic steps:
Create IP form based on web service
Fill out form and test via Preview
Convert data connection to a connection file
Publish IP form and test on SharePoint
Go back into IP and try to test again via Preview <--- no longer works - now stuck with testing on SharePoint which is "live"
This could be a factor of how our SharePoint environment is configured. I have no other experience to base it on.

Webservice client : different wsdl file for test/production environment

In an ADF application, I need call a web service in model project
In my company, we have 2 environments : test and production.
This webservice is deploye in test server and production server.
So there are 2 different wsdl file for test/production.
I want to make my ADF Application portable cross the 2 environments.
An environment variable can indicate in which environment the ADF application run.
According to this variable, application choose which wsdl/endpoint to call.
If I use "web service Data control" wizard, how can I achieve this?
If I use "webservice proxy" wizard, how can I achieve this?
Thanks!!!!!!

Hi,
I have a model project with ws proxy client and on this proxy I added an adf ws connection called CustomerExperience
then I can do this.
// a test to try to overrule the adf ws connection from EM
Context ctx = null;
try {
ctx = ADFContext.getCurrent().getConnectionsContext();
WebServiceConnection wsc = (WebServiceConnection) ctx.lookup("CustomerExperience");
CustomerExperience customerExperience = wsc.getJaxWSPort(CustomerExperience.class);
} catch (NamingException e) {
LOGGER.severe("got web service loading fault: "+ e.getMessage());
throw new JboException( messages.getString("NOM-999"),
"NOM-999",
null );
I exported this to an adf jar and added this to a webapp.
On runtime the ws connection is not dectected by the webapp so need to copy this ws conn to the connections of the webapp. This works
but can I change it from wlst instead of EM , is this possible?
I don't see the WS connection in wlst (oracle common) adf_listURLConnection('CE_Portal')
thanks

Related to Unused compression in RMAN backup for 10.2.0.4 database

Hi
I recently read through one of the document related to Unused compression in RMAN backup for 10.2.0.4 database. According to this
Unused Block Compression is done, if all of the following conditions apply:
+ The COMPATIBLE initialization parameter is set to 10.2
+ There are currently no guaranteed restore points defined for the database
+ The datafile is locally managed
+ The datafile is being backed up to a backup set as part of a full backup or a level 0 incremental backup
+ The backup set is being created on disk.
I have two queries
1) What is meant by "uaranteed restore points defined for the database"
2) If backup is being directly taken to tape, this feature would not be used
Rgds
Harvinder

1. Normal and Garanteed Restore Points
2. No
