SCN T-Shirts.

Hi
Is SCN provides T-shirts same like SDN.?
I know SDN was giving once crossing respective milestones like 250, 1000, 500 pints... etc
Did anybody got t-shirt recently..?
Reg,
Bhg

Hi,
It's really humorous . In fact we want bullet proof T-shirts to safeguard ourselves from Moderators(as you guys always have eyes on us )

  • T-shirt

    hi..
    my total points is around 530 and the forum points around 470, but still i didnt get any mail for the t-shirt.. what can i do for this..

    since the t-shirt biz seems not to be organized by SDN ops any longer but rather by SCN ops 2k isn't equal to 2048pts anymore. At least I got my last mail and Contributors Corner recognition when I crossed 2000. for the visual composer generation 2048 isn't any different from 2047 and both have nothing to do with 2k
    i know, i know. that was a bit mean.

  • In case of Control File Failure, Create Control File cmd how get scn?

    The following lines i picked from the
    http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:5033895918209
    ======================================================
    1. We can use the 'alter database rename ' at mount stage to rename any datafile. Or is it not possible to rename the system datafile like this? Why?
    2. What happens to the SCN information in the controlfile when a controlfile is recreated? How will the database sync the SCN with that of the datafiles?
    If I issue a 'backup controlfile to <file>' at 8 am and then restore that controlfile binary backup at 10 am and try to open the database, it will give me a control file old error. I understand that it is because the SCN is not in sync. But if I issue a 'backup controlfile to trace' at 8 am and use that script to recreate a new controlfile at 10 am, why doesn't I get the error? Where does it get the SCN information then?
    So what is the use of taking a binary copy of the controlfile. Looks like having a 'backup controlfile to trace' script is better than a binary backup. Do you agree? Why/whynot?
    Followup August 16, 2002 - 2pm US/Eastern:
    1) you could but I just always did it with the create controlfile statement.
    When moving system -- I do it that way
    When moving ANY OTHER tablespace -- i just offline it, move the files, rename the files online it.
    2) it just happens.
    The control file you create will read the files to figure out what is up.
    I agree, I've never used a binary controlfile backup myself.
    =========================================================
    My Question- In the Point2 above "Where does it get the SCN information and how control file do SCN Sync with data files?
    "

    1. The CREATE CONTROLFILE reads SCNs from the DataFiles. If the
    database was last shutdown, all the datafiles are "non-fuzzy" and have the same
    SCN (as of the shutdown checkpoint), If the database or some of the files are from
    are hot backup, you cannot open the database because the SCN of some files is
    older (lower) than others -- that is why a RECOVER (DATABASE or DATAFILE) is
    required.
    See http://web.singnet.com.sg/~hkchital/Incomplete_Recovery_with_BackupControlfile.doc
    2. I'm not sure I agree with Tom Kyte's response
    "I agree, I've never used a binary controlfile backup myself. "
    to the question
    "So what is the use of taking a binary copy of the controlfile. Looks like having a 'backup controlfile to trace' script is better than a binary backup. Do you agree? Why/whynot?"
    If you have lost your database (storage/filesystem failure) and all your datafiles are lost,
    you cannot simply do a CREATE CONTROLFILE from a Trace -- because the
    CREATE CONTROLFILE has to read and verify all the datafiles specified in the
    CREATE statement. If you have an RMAN Repository, you can use that to restore
    your database files but otherwise, the RMAN information about backups and backupsets
    are in the binary controlfile.
    That is why it is important to take binary controlfile backups either manually or
    using RMAN or using CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON.

  • Need support to develop a Web Application-T Shirt Designer

    Hello Everyone
    I am new here. So a big hello to all of you.
    Well, I am writing here because I urgently need an expert opinion on the matter mentioned below. And I would be glad if I could receieve some professional advice on this forum.
    I have to create  an online T shirt Designer (a Visual Configurator), i.e.a web based application where the user will be able to select the various elements of a T shirt such as color, text, graphics etc and visualize the same in real time and then place the order for the product. Here the cost will be automatically added at diferent stages i.e. when a text/graphic is selected while the shipping cost is added at the stage of check out . Finally as per the total cost, the final payment is made through the payment gateway.
    Now my question is which adobe product would be best for designing this visual configurator considering the following points.
    1. This visual configuartor has to be first designed and then embedded on an E commerce website as a web application.
    2. Like any other T shirt designer, the images will be swapped/changed. So mainly the development would involve creating a layout/structure wherein a certain process or series can be systematically organized to help a user configure the product.
    3. This configurator application would involve mathematical calculation i.e. adding costs at different  stages. So business rules will have to be applied and a payment gateway has to be integrated with the application.
    Mostly the online T shirt designer softwares I have seen are based on Flash. But I am not sure if this is the best product for my requirement.
    Would greatly appreciate support.
    Thanks
    Mini

    Go to CustomInk.com.  Their T-shirt Design App is not Flash based which is refreshing. Instead, they're using a sophisticated combination of CSS, JavaScript and PHP/MySql.
    Digging a little deeper into the source code, it looks like the company that developed their T-shirt Design App is located in India and called No-Fresh.com
    No-Fresh licenses their T-shirt Design App.  You might want to contact them directly.

  • Addled Brain- which direction to go in setting up a t-shirt e-commerce site.Please help wise people!

    Hello,
    I have a little experience from 10 years ago building web sites, but things have changed a lot (but i am very good at teaching myself).  Can anyone advise me on the way to go?
    I want to create a t-shirt e-commerce site and have no money to pay anyone to make the site (maybe when the business is flying i will, but for now) - i am designing it myself and have all the design elements done, but do not know the best way to implement it given all the technologies out there; and do not want to go one way, to find out my efforts were wasted much later.  Here's my thinking...
    The main site contains the t-shirts.  When a user clicks on a picture it takes them to a 't shirt options' page where they can configure the design (put the design on the pocket, the back or the front in the center etc).  I was going to create check boxes for them to do this which when clicked, will change the picture to show them how it looks.  This means i will create picture for every possible check box option and load that into the 'this is what you t shirt looks like' space (easy enough and i can do that i think).  I will do that for every t-shirt on the main page.
    But I was thinking, could I just have a plane t-shirt in the 'this is what you t shirt looks like' space and using a picture of the design,  just reposition it and resize it using (and this is where my knoweldge is small at the moment) jqeury or some other language, or even CSS and divs?  What would be the best appraoch?  This way i would only have to create the design and the blank T-shirt and use code to position it to represent the final product.  Would it better to use a CMS such a Joomla to do this (this seems very complicated)?  Before i go any further than the design i thought i would ask you clever people.
    Thanks if you got this far...
    Conundrum part 2:
    The user will then click proceed to checkout where i will use a shopping cart system (probably Zen cart because that is on the hosting company's server that intend to use (unless suggested otherwise)).  I will need each version of the t-shirt to have a unique product ID that relates to a database that contains pricing options and this will be sent to the 'zen cart' and that will process the transaction.  Is my understanding correct?
    Many thanks for any suggestions.  Learnign one or two  things (CSS and DW) is OK, learning 5 things at once is making my head hurt! I have become confused

    Zen cart is free.  And you get what you pay for -- software that is hard to work with, not very good, poorly supported and has many security vulnerabilities which is why hackers love to exploit it. 
    Get a real shopping cart. Money well spent.  Building one yourself is risky and requires expert skill with server-security, data encryption, PHP, MySql, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PCI compliance, SSL certificates, etc...   You'll drive yourself crazy trying to learn everything you don't know.  
    UltraCart is easy to set-up and they have a free 30 day trial so you can test before you decide.  There are many PCI compliant commercial carts you can use.   If you have a merchant bank account, start with your bank to find out which gateways and processors they require you to use.  That will narrow your search to carts that work with your payment gateway.
    As for your site, keep it simple, semantic, user friendly and responsive.

  • How to get the last SCN number from catalog database

    Hi All,
    I have a catalog database where my PROD database is registered. Evereyday at 12AM rman takes the hot backup of PROD.

  • How can i generate a large SCN for database

    Hi,
    On databases where SCN number is larger that 2^32 , my application seems to work in a weird way. Am trying to get this re produced in my test setup , but am unable to pump up the SCN number to such a large value.
    I am trying this on RHEL5-64 bit and WIN2003-64 bit with Oracle 11gR2 using a script which does some table creation , deletion etc.
    Does any one know any method to increase the SCN value ? This would be of great help.
    --Amith                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

    Simply selecting a row from v$database, in a loop, will increase the current SCN. Don't ask me why this happens as I do not have an answer for the same.

    CURRENT_SCN

  • How can I determine what is the minimum SCN number I need to restore up to.

    Say if I have a full database backup, I know I have file inconsistency, but I want to know what is the minimum time or SCN number a need to roll forward to in order to be able to open the database?
    For example: I do a database restore.
    restore database ;
    RMAN> sql 'alter database open read only';
    sql statement: alter database open read only
    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

    I need need to apply archive log files. All references I find for ORA-00194 state the solution is to "apply more logs until the file is consistent " But "HOW MANY LOGS", or more apporaite up to what time or SCN? How does one determine what TIME or SCN is required to get all file consistent?
    I thought this query might provide the answer, but it doesn't
    select max(checkpoint_change#)
    from v$datafile_header
    MAX(CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#)

    I've discover I need to apply archive logs until this query reports all datafiles as FUZZY=NO , but this only works by guessing at some time periord to roll forward to, then checking the FUZZY column, and try again. Is there a way to know, I have to roll forward to a specific SNC in order for all my datafiles to be consistent?
    select file#

    order by checkpoint_time
    Thanks,
    Jason

    The minimum point in time is the time when the last backup piece for datafiles in that backup was completed.
    Your alert.log should show the redo log sequence number at that time.
    You can query V$ARCHIVED_LOG and get the FIRST_CHANGE# of the first archivedlog generated after that backup piece completed.
    A
    LIST BACKUP;in RMAN should also show you the SCNs at the time of the backups.
    You can also query SCN_TO_TIMESTAMP -- eg
    select timestamp_to_scn(to_timestamp('15-MAR-09 09:24:01','DD-MON-RR HH24:MI:SS')) from dual;will return an approximation of the SCN.

  • Tips & Tricks to manage time to contribute in SCN

    Hi SCN Mates,
                 The question of managing time to contribute in SCN and be in the top list of contributors is always a challenge, I wonder how other guys are managing it along with project work and personal life.
    Through this thread I would like to ask all top contributors to share few tips on how do you manage your time to contribute in SCN and be in top?
    I know with dedication and knowledge, at same time everyone will have their office work at priority after family/personal time.
    Also contributing for an hour daily is also not possible because you never know whether you get ideas within an hour ;-).
    Anyway, share your tips & tricks...
    Thanks,
    Umashanakr

    People who become Top Contributors fall into two main categories
    Category 1 - There is no need to know anything about SAP at all, but since they are SAP professionals at the end of the day, they know enough to get points. They spend all their time on SCN, Must follow every single member of HCL. Must go to each blog and like it ,and write "thank you". They  read every question posted on the forum, whether they know anything about it or not, and reply to it. They have excellent google skills, so they google the answer and post links in reply to every question. They could vary their approach by becoming active in Coffee Corner as well. Soon they will have million points and be a top contributor.
    Unfortunately, this method is not for those who have family/work/other commitments which are more important.
    Category 2 - These people have built up a tremendous amount of knowledge after years of practising in the business. They are genuine experts. They do not come into SCN with the sheer intent of accumulating points. However, when they do come in, and see fit to respond to a post, it is invariably the correct answer or  very helpful, that they get marked accordingly. These people post thoughtful blogs or comments or documents or discussions, which are useful and appreciated by the community and they get marked accordingly. Sooner or later, without really trying, but by simply practising their profession, these people accumulate enough points to become Top Contributors.
    These people do not have a set strategy intended to accumulate points, but they do have a set strategy of being good and knowledgeable at their job. They manage their work/life balance in a way that suits them to achive this goal.
    I am afraid there is no fixed way to achieve lofty goals with little or no effort.
    There is a 3rd category, who are pretty decent in their knowledge and sporadically answer questions when they feel like, and who randomly get points for their responses, and they will never become top contributors, however, they are not too worried about it, and they do get to spend time with their families/other interests. This is a technicality that need not detain us.
    YMMV
    Hope this helps.

    If the Operating system is same :
    Working Machine
    ================
    Shutdown the database and copy everything
    Copy the init.ora
    Copy the pdf,ctl,and log
    Copy the bdump, udump etc..
    On the second machine
    ==================
    Copy your file in the same path as original i.e
    C:\oracle..<dbname>\system.dbf
    C:\oracle..<dbname>\system.dbf
    Start the database
    If your paths in second machine does not match as original update this thread again

  • In 10g can we dump control file and get SCN info.

    Hi,
    I have a question can any one help me on this.
    In 9.2.0.5 we could dump the control file and get the SCN using the command :
    alter session set events 'immediate trace name CONTROLF level 10';
    In 10.1.0.4.0 the output of the dump has changed and we do not get the SCN. or any of the following information :
    DATABASE ENTRY
    CHECKPOINT PROGRESS RECORDS
    EXTENDED DATABASE ENTRY
    REDO THREAD RECORDS
    LOG FILE RECORDS
    DATA FILE RECORDS
    RMAN CONFIGURATION RECORDS
    LOG FILE HISTORY RECORDS
    OFFLINE RANGE RECORDS
    ARCHIVED LOG RECORDS
    BACKUP SET RECORDS
    BACKUP PIECE RECORDS
    BACKUP DATAFILE RECORDS
    Can I get similar output in 10g as 9i ?
    with regards,
    Dilip.

    Hi.
    What are you trying to achieve here? If you just want the current SCN, you can get it using one of these:
    SQL> select current_scn from v$database;
    CURRENT_SCN
    8058824527
    1 row selected.
    SQL>or
    SQL> select dbms_flashback.get_system_change_number from dual;
    GET_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER
                  8079317404
    1 row selected.
    SQL>Cheers
    Tim...

  • How to find the timestamp and SCN in the standby database?

    Hai,
    I have Oracle 9.2.0.4 RAC with 2 nodes in the production. The logs generated at these servers will be manully moved to my standby database and will be applied. To know what isthe maximum log files applied in the standby database, i am using the below mentioned query in the standby database,
    Select thread#,max(sequence#) from v$log_history group by thread#
    In general i am using "recover standby database until cancel" command and then checking the database with the above mentioned query whether all the logs are applied or not.
    If i use time based or scn based recovery in standby database i.e., "recover standby database until time <time>" or "recover standby database until change <scn number>" , after completion of the recovery, apart from the message "Media recovery complete" or by seeing the alert log, is there any way to query the standby database, so that i can identify the time or scn upto which the archived redo log files got applied.

    Hi Sridhar,
    There should be some view which will have applied_scn information. There is one more option i can suggest, you can create a heart beat table in production with 2 column like scn and timestamp. Update this table every minute. From standby db you can query this table and get fair idea on applied_scn and timestamp.
    While exporting you can export using flashback_scn by taking the value from heartbeat table of standby.
    This heartbeat table is used very common in streams environment. Just see if this helps you.

  • RMAN-05556: not all datafiles have backups that can be recovered to SCN

    Oracle 11.2.0.2 SE-One
    Oracle Linux 5.6 x86-64
    Weekly refresh of a test db from prod, using rman DUPLICATE DATABASE, failed with “RMAN-05556: not all datafiles have backups that can be recovered to SCN”
    Background Summary:
    Weekly inc 0 backup of production starts on Sunday at 0100, normally completes around 1050.  Includes backups of archivelogs
    Another backup of just archivelogs runs on Sunday at 1200, normally completes NLT 1201.
    On the test server, the refresh job starts on Sunday at 1325.  In the past this script used a set until time \"to_date('`date +%Y-%m-%d` 11:55:00','YYYY-MM-DD hh24:mi:ss')\"; -- hard-coded for ‘today at 11:55’.
    For a variety of reasons I decided to replace this semi-hard coding of the UNTIL with a value determined by querying the rman catalog, getting the completion time of the inc 0 backup.  This tested out just fine in my vbox lab, even when I deliberately drove some updates and log switches during the period the backup was running.  But the first time to go live I got the above reported error.
    Details:
    The key part of the inc 0 backup is this (run from a shell script)
    export BACKUP_LOC=/u01/backup/dbprod
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target=/ catalog rman/***@rmcat<<EOF
    configure backup optimization on;
    configure default device type to disk;
    configure retention policy to recovery window of 2 days;
    crosscheck backup;

    delete noprompt force expired backup;
    delete noprompt force expired archivelog all;
    configure controlfile autobackup on;
    configure controlfile autobackup format for device type disk to '$BACKUP_LOC/%d_%F_ctl.backup';

    show all;
    backup as compressed backupset archivelog all delete all input format "$BACKUP_LOC/%U.alog";
    backup as compressed backupset incremental level 0 database tag tag_dbprod;
    sql "alter system archive log current";
    backup as compressed backupset archivelog all delete all input format "$BACKUP_LOC/%U.alog";
    list recoverable backup;
    EOF
    The archivelog-only backup (runs at noon) looks like this:
    export BACKUP_LOC=/u01/backup/dbprod
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target=/ catalog rman/***@rmcat<<EOF
    configure backup optimization on;
    configure default device type to disk;

    sql "alter system archive log current";
    show all;
    backup as compressed backupset archivelog all delete all input format "$BACKUP_LOC/%U.alog";
    list recoverable backup;
    EOF
    And the original refresh looked like this:
    >> a step to ftp the backups from the prod server to the test server, and some other housekeeping  <<, then
    cd /backup/dbtest
    echo "connect catalog rman/***@rmcat" >  /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "connect target sys/*******@dbprod" >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "connect auxiliary /"             >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "run {"                           >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "set until time \"to_date('`date +%Y-%m-%d` 11:55:00','YYYY-MM-DD hh24:mi:ss')\";"  >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "duplicate target database to DBTEST;"  >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "}" >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    So, my mod to the refresh was
    bkup_point=`sqlplus -s rman/***@rmcat <<EOF1
    set echo off verify off feedback off head off pages 0 trimsp on
    select to_char(max(completion_time),'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss')
    from rc_backup_set_details
    where db_name='DBPROD'
    and backup_type='D'
    and incremental_level=0
    exit
    EOF1`
    cd /backup/dbtest
    echo "connect catalog rman/***@rmcat"     > /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "connect target sys/*******@dbprod"    >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "connect auxiliary /"                >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "run {"                              >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "set until time \"to_date('${bkup_point}','YYYY-MM-DD hh24:mi:ss')\";"  >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "duplicate target database to DBTEST;" >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    echo "}"                                  >> /backup/dbtest/dbtest_refresh.rman
    Now the fun begins.
    First, an echo in the refresh script confirmed the ‘bkup_point’:
    =======================================================
    We will restore to 2013-08-25 10:41:38
    =======================================================
    Internally, rman reset the ‘until’ as follows:

    Notice the availability of the archivelogs including the referenced scn.
    Investigation of the ftp portion of the refresh script confirmed that all backup pieces were copied from the prod server.
    So what am I overlooking?  Having reverted back to the original script to get the refresh completed,

    So, technically, you only need the database and archivelogs backed up by the database script and not the noon run of the archivelog backup.

    Yet, why does backupset 5 of the noon archivelog backup show archivelogs from 10:30 to 10:40  if they had been deleted by the database backup script which has a delete input ?  It is as if the database backup script did NOT delete the archivelogs and the noon run was the one to backup the archivelogs (again ?)
    No, that is from the morning full backup.  Note the 'Completion Time" of 25-Aug-2013 10:54:53
    However, the error message seems to point to a datafile.  Why would reverting the recovery point to 11:55 make a difference, I wonder.
    As do I.
    Also puzzling to me are the times associated with the completion of the backups.  I don't recall ever having to scrutinize a backup listing this closely so I'm sure it's just a matter of filling in some gaps in my understanding, but I noticed this.  The backup report (list backup;) shows this for the inc 0 backup:

    I hope this posts in a readable, understandable manner.  I really struggeled with the 'enhanced editor', which I normally use.  When I pasted in blocks from the rman report, it kept trying to make some sort of table structure out of it .... guess I'll have to follow that up with a question in the Community forum ....
