RMAN - Unable to remove archivelogs from catalog

Hi
I have missing archivelogs and want to remove them from caltalog. The controlfile is beeing used as catalog. I have done the following:
CROSSCHECK ARCHIVELOG ALL;
-For the missing archivelogs RMAN output is "validation failed for archived log".
DELETE FORCE EXPIRED ARCHIVELOG ALL;
-output says:
deleted archive log
archive log filename=/an/log/autonar/archive/1_317009_555884131.dbf recid=5088 stamp=685099967
Deleted 1 EXPIRED objects
However the command does not remove the logs from catalog.
LIST ARCHIVE LOG ALL; still shows the above archive logs.
Next, i tried:
CHANGE ARCHIVELOG like '%317009%' UNCATALOG;
And the result is the same:
uncataloged archive log
archive log filename=/an/log/autonar/archive/1_317009_555884131.dbf recid=5088 stamp=685099967
Uncataloged 1 objects
But i can still see the files in the catalog.
Why is this happening? Anyone had problems like this?

The problem is in the controlfile. I'm not using the database catalog, just the controlfile.
However, I did try registrating the database on rman catalog. But the results are the same when i execute above mentioned commands.
I also tried manually removing rows from the catalog table (RMAN.AL table). This does remove the enteries from the catalog, but not from the control file. So after the next resync, the catalog gets the information back from the controlfile and i'm back to beginning. :(

  • Removing Entry from Catalog

    Hello,
    We had 7 database instances running on a server and now that server is down and database are tear down. Before this, we forgot to unregister/delete backup for these databases from recovery catalog.
    Using DBID for it, I could remove it from catalog.
    RMAN>  SET DBID 487194766
    executing command: SET DBID
    database name is "GWMPI05" and DBID is 487194766
    RMAN> UNREGISTER DATABASE;
    database name is "GWMPI05" and DBID is 487194766
    Do you really want to unregister the database (enter YES or NO)? YES
    database unregistered from the recovery catalog
    RMAN>
    But these doesn't seem to be removing entry from catalog. I don't have target database any more so can not issue "delete backup".
    So is there any way to remove entry/backup of this database from catalog ?

    Hi,
    The catalog only holds metadata the actual backup resides on disk or tape.
    The unregister action does a cascading delete inside the catalog for a specific db_id so all metadata should be removed.
    If you want to remove actual backups from disk you need OS commands.
    Deleting from tape is most of the time not worth the effort just wait till everything is expired and than recycle the tapes.

  • Remove files from Catalog

    When I delete files from my harddisk, in PSE 7 they will be marked as missing files.
    How can I quickly select all missing files in my catalog and remove them from my catalog?

    You can filter for the raw files. If you can't see the library filter above all the thumbnails press the backslash key.
    Choose text and in the search box type the extension for the raw files e.g. NEF, CR2, ARW etc. You can then select all the results (Ctrl+A) and delete or remove. Removing lets you clear the images from the catalog but keep the files in the folder on your hard drive, unless you confirm you want to delete them permanently to the recycle bin.

  • Netflix problem using Firefox 9.0.1 (mac), unable to remove items from queue but I can from Safari. Anyone had this problem? Talked to Netflix they can remove items on their end.

    iMac OS 10.5.8, 2.66 GHz, 4gb memory. I've tried with adblock on and off. I use HTTPS Everywhere.
    Netflix suggested it might be a browser issue and to try Safari. I was able to remove items from queue using Safari.

    Addendum: The .jpg file, below, shows the netflix popup I get when trying to delete a video.

  • Unable to remove product from My Support Profile

    Good Evening. I have an iPhone 4S. I will be giving this phone to a family member. I have followed Apples on-line instructions on What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone. (phone has been re-set to factory settings and removed from iCloud). I then visited the Apple My Support Profile page, it listed the iPhone 4S and the Serial Number. I then clicked on Remove Product but this function does not appear to be working (the status indicator just keeps spinning). I need to be able to remove this from my profile. Any suggestions?  Thanks so much (note: for some reason, I was not able to post this under iPhone community?)

    If that happened to me, I would try the following series of steps:
    Connect your iPhone to iTunes.  Go to the iPhone's Music tab in iTunes.  Uncheck the "Sync Music" so the music will not be synced.  Click "Apply" in the lower right.
    The previous step should have removed all music from your iPhone.  But you will probably find the old songs/albums remaining behind.  Delete them from your iPhone.
    Check the "Sync Music" box in iTunes again and "Apply" again.  That should reload all music from iTunes to your iPhone and solve the issue.

  • Unable to remove business partner catalog numbers

    Hello,
    I have created a business partner catalog number for one item.
    Now I want to remove that catalog number but it is not possible.
    I have tried to remove the catalog number over the menu item "Data" and the function "Remove".
    I get the positive system message "Operation completed successfully" but the catalog number is still there.
    Any idea?
    Thanks
    Jacqueline

    Hi,
    I have tried the same in my database. It works fine. We can remove the Business Partner Catelog Number from the Item Master for any item eventhough we have performed transactions in that item.
    Try once again to remove the BPCN. if it fails, please try to inform SAP and they will solve this bug immediately.

  • Help - unable to remove ipad from icloud device list

    I am trying to erase/remove my IOS7 ipad mini from my iCloud account, as I am selling the device.
    I have been able to use the iCloud - Find my iPhone function to sucessfully erase the ipad mini. I did this using the browser interface to www.icloud.com from a PC.
    I then try to 'remove' the 'erased' ipad and I am getting a recurring :- 'There was a problem sending your request to your device' error in the iCloud, Find my iPhone browser screens.
    The device has sucessfully been erased and even if I repeat the device setup and re-associate it with my icloud ID. I get the same problem as above. Furthermore if I try to disassociate from icloud on the device itself by selecting the > general > reset > reset all content and settings option. I am asked for my iCloud login as part of this and I get an error that the device cant connect to iCloud - or something similar.
    Any ideas how I get around this, as I basically have an orphaned ipad entry (albeit erased - so none of my data is on it), associated with my iCloud account and I dont want this - obviously..
    Thanks..

    Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried all that - but it makes no difference. Will see if speaking to apple support can help.

  • Problems since the last update and unable to remove program from comp...

    I haven't been able to run itunes since the last update. Anytime I try to run it, it gives me the preparing to install window and then a little while afterwards, says that the folder program files contains an invalid character. I tried moving the program out of the that folder even as far as to the desktop as the help topic suggested. I have tried removing the program from the comp, but it won't let me do that because of the same reason it won't run itunes. I am at a loss of what to do. I can't seem to be able to repair it nor can I remove it and reinstall. I really don't want a defunct program just eating space on my comp. Please help.

    Can you install any program? If so can you install the MS cleanup utility?
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301
    If you can't install it then I'll need a email that I can send the exe to. I just did this for someone else so don't worry.

  • Unable to remove object from arraylist

    Hello,
    I am trying to remove a few objects from an arraylist and it isnt happeneing in one loop :
                         for(int i=0;i<someList.size();i++){
                             empVo = (EmpVO)colList.get(i);
                             if(empVo.getempName().trim().equalsIgnoreCase("A") ||empVo.getempName().trim().equalsIgnoreCase("B") ||empVo.getempName().trim().equalsIgnoreCase("C") )
                                colList.remove(i);
                         }So, it doesnt remove the object all the time whenever the names of A,B or C appear, so I have to run this loop thrice so it deletes all the data pertaining to these three emp names. Then I thought may be the size of the arraylist is changing and used a temp var for the someList.size, but that doesnt work either. Could you please tell me what is going wrong ?
    Edited by: Sarvananda on Sep 3, 2010 12:10 PM
    Also, the exact test has names A to F. So say A, D and E will be deleted in the first loop, then I have to specifically sysout and see which ones were deleted and then write another loop for B,C and F. Ofcourse at the end A - F are removed. But why two loops for it

    What if you do this using an iterator to remove items, or if you start from the top of the list and iterate down to the first item?thanks for your reply. I was just looking at the API, and stumbled on this :
    The iterators returned by this class's iterator and listIterator methods are fail-fast: if the list is structurally modified at any time after the iterator is created, in any way except through the iterator's own remove or add methods, the iterator will throw a ConcurrentModificationException. Thus, in the face of concurrent modification, the iterator fails quickly and cleanly, rather than risking arbitrary, non-deterministic behavior at an undetermined time in the future.Any pointers on where I could look or how I could I move from here ?
    Another question I had was, there is no efficient way to 'move' objects in an arraylist (based on their indexes), isn't it ?
    I always have to remove and add at a certain index.

  • Unable to remove user from SharePoint Group using PowerShell

    I am trying to remove a user from a SharePoint Group using PowerShell.
    I can see the user in the Site Collection as part of the SharePoint Group, however, when I attempt to run the script, I get an error message stating "Can not find the user with ID: 10"
    Below is the PowerShell script that I am using:
    $url = "https://sharepointdev.spfarm.spcorp.com/sites/desitecoll"
    $userName = "spfarm\sp2013_svc"
    #$userName = "spfarm\spprofileimport";

    $web = $site.OpenWeb()
    $siteGroups = $web.SiteGroups;
    Clear-Host
    $mySiteGroups = @();
    foreach($group in $siteGroups)

    $web.Dispose();
    Write-Host "User " $userName "removed from " $owners
    Please advise.

    I had to update the code to the following because Get-SPUser was not working properly:
    $url = "https://sharepointdev.spfarm.spcorp.com/sites/desitecoll"
    $userName = "spfarm\spprofileimport";
    $site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($url)
    $web = $site.OpenWeb()
    $siteGroups = $web.Groups;
    Clear-Host

    #Convert the user name to an SPUser account

    Was I not using Get-SPUser correctly?

  • Unable to remove repositories from CA

    I'm doing a new BCC build on ATG10. For this site we dont need some ATG repositories.

    Can you create a CA project and see if there is a option to create one of these repositories?
    And also you can go to /dyn/admin and verify if your changes are picked up or in correct config path
    atg/epub/version/VersionmanagerService/?propertyName=versionedRepositories
    atg/epub/version/VersionmanagerService/?propertyName=serviceConfiguration
    If you have configured correctly, then it will not let you to create assets.
    But starting of the component is different issue. It could be that SiteRepository is being started from Initial.properties or being referred from other components.
    If you do not want to start as versioned in any case, then override that repository $class to GSARepository.
    Peace
