Setting Retudancy for .dbf and .arc file

Hi all,
Below is my rman db full backup script...
allocate channel t5 device type disk;
backup as COMPRESSED BACKUPSET
format '/backup/baskar/DB/%d_%t_%s_%p'
tag 'dbmain_full_backup' database;
SQL 'alter system switch logfile';
crosscheck archivelog all;
backup as compressed backupset archivelog all format '/backup/baskar/DB/%d_Arch_Log%t_%s_%p';
backup
tag = cf1
format '/backup/baskar/DB/%d_CONTROL_%t_%s_%p' current controlfile;
release channel t1;
Now i want to set redutancy for the RMAN backup...I need to keep the archives for 3 days..IS that possible to set a reduancy for *.dbf files as 2 and for archive files as 3 in RMAN....Two separate redunancies...
thanks,
baskar.l

Since you hide your database version, there's no accurate answer possible (sometimes Oracle performs changes), this is for 10g concerning the archivelog deletion policy (it has changed significantly in 11g):
ARCHIVELOG DELETIONPOLICYTO ( APPLIED ON STANDBY | NONE | CLEAR ) Governs archived redo log deletion policy for the flash recovery area. Possible settings are:
•APPLIED ON STANDBY - enables flash recovery area to delete archivelogs that are applied on mandatory standby. See Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration for details.
•NONE - enables flash recovery area to delete archivelogs that are backed up to tertiary device and that are obsolete based on the configured backup retention policy. This is the default configuration.
•CLEAR - clears the deletion policy and returns the specified configuration to default value. The default value is NONE.
As you can see there's no equivalent to 'REDUNDANCY n'.

How to set value for trim and bleed using jsx script?

I have tried using bleedoffsetRect but somehow it is not working. Can anybody please help me on how to set value for trim and bleed using jsx script? Any example will be highly appreciated.
Following is the code I am trying with:
var _saveName = new File ( root_path +_strFileName+".pdf");
    var _saveOpts = new PDFSaveOptions();
    _saveOpts.printerResolution = 300;
    var bleedarray = new Array();
     bleedarray[0] =9.00;
     bleedarray[1]=9.00;
     bleedarray[2]=9.00;
     bleedarray[3]=9.00;
    _saveOpts.bleedOffsetRect = bleedarray;

I would expect although I've not actually tried this for the bleed off set box to be larger than the artbaord and the first two values to be negative or 0…
var bleedarray = new Array(-9,-9,artboard.width+9,artboard.height+9);
Where 'artboard.width' & 'artboard.height' you will have calculated from your file. An Array(9,9,9,9); would not constitute any boxes bounds.

Bridge does not show dimensions for .PDF and .AI files

Is there any way to see the dimensions in cm (or inch) for PDF and AI files in Bridge? I'm using Bridge CS5 4.1.0.54 as part of CS5.5 Design Premium, have set the preferences in Bridge to show them, but there are no values in the metadata fields for dimensions in inch/cm. I don't know if this behaviour is normal or if there's something wrong with my installation...
TIA,
Matthias

May be 'dimension' is not the right word/translation. In my german version it says 'Abmessungen (in Zoll)' or 'Abmessungen (in cm)', which should mean something like 'dimension' or 'size'. DIN A4, A5, US Letter, Legal etc. pp. in cm or inch.

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
With regard to font size,
1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
Can any of you Help?!?

Maybe this extension helps:

Volumes and Qtrees set up for SAP and Oracle

Hi Gurus
I Need your help Please
I need to get Volumes and Qtrees set up for SAP and Oracle.
I found a document from NetApp that helped a lot about the structure.
But what I donu2019t know and canu2019t find anywhere is sizing for the volumes and Qtrees.
I really need some guidelines on sizing these below:
FlexVol saplog
/usr/sap/SID
/usr/sap/trans
/sapmnt/SID
/home/SIDadm
/oracle/SID
/oracle/SID/origlogA
/oracle/SID/origlogB
/oracle/SID/oraarch
/oracle/SID/sapreorg
/oracle/SID/sapbackup
/oracle/SID/saparch
FlexVol sapdata
/oracle/SID/sapdata1
/oracle/SID/sapdata2
/oracle/SID/sapdataN
FlexVol mirrlogs
/oracle/SID/mirrlogA
/oracle/SID/mirrlogB
Thanks and appreciate your help

> I have gone through the Inst Guide and I was surprised to see only 50 MB for Oracle software directory ?
Where did you read that?
> The sizing given in Installation guide is for typical setup or do we need to size as per our requirement ?
The sizing give there is for the initial system setup. It does not contain customer specific requirements.
The usual process is:
- you contact your hardware vendor
- you use http://service.sap.com/quicksizer together with him and fill in the data
- the hardware vendor will offer you the storage and the machines for the setup
- the vendor configures with you the storage and the necessary filesystem layout based on that sizing
Each customers setup is different and requires the experience and knowledge from the respective hardware vendor how to set up the system so it performs well.
You can follow the suggestions given here, this will be enough for the initial setup but the system will grow. This is not taken into account in the installation guide because it's customer specific.

"Tag Editor" for M4A and M4V Files?

I got major corruption in my music files, resulting in either 2 extra letters being inserted in the file names just ahead of the period between the file name and the extension, or the entire filename being replaced by 4 random letters. Found some tag editors that will let me repair MP3 files, by pulling tag data out of the file and using it to fix the file names. Does something like that exist for m4a and m4v files?

No, I'm not suggesting that at all, I was replying to another poster who said they couldn't add artwork to an mp4 at all.
Your equipment likely has nothing to do with this, I have a dual 4 core 3 Ghz Xeon CPU and I too have a considerable wait sometimes adding artwork to some files.
mp4 containers can hold either mpeg4/2 or mpeg4/10, (simple mpeg4 and AVC) and each compression type has a whole array of complexity types associated with it, much the same can be said for audio in the mp4 container.
What I'm saying is that some mp4's will take time to add artwork, some will do it straight away and there are situations where some mp4's won't take artwork. It isn't your system, your hardware or anything you are doing wrong, it's the way it is.

Firefox will not recognize when I change the settings for .torrent and .rar files to "do this automatically for files like this from now on", EVEN AFTER I change the setting in Tools Options Applications.

Um, why is this? I think my Question pretty much covers it. Is there a way I can fix the settings so Firefox automatically opens .torrent files and .rar files with the programs I tell it to always use?

I'm sorry to hear that you didn't receive a reply to this problem. As far as I can tell, there '''is''' no reply or solution to this problem so far, as I have exactly the same problem too.
One solution that I did try (and which worked, but not for my exact needs) was to tell Firefox to ''always'' '''save''' the torrents to the download folder. Then, in your personal torrent program, change the settings so that torrents from the download folder are automatically searched and added. In this way, torrents are automatically loaded in your torrent program. However, for me, I need to see the contents of the torrent before I download it all, which wasn't possible with this method. If that isn't important to you, this should be a sufficient solution.

Save dialog box for text and pdf files

Hi,
I am using CRM UI framework for developing my components.
Currently i have a hyperlink for a file. On click of the hyperlink i want the Save dialog box to appear with SAVE/OPEN/CANCEL options. For Word/Excel/PPT files, dialog box appears. However for txt/PDF files, dialog box does not appear.
URL looks like the following:

Could you please help me to resolve this issue?

First of all, you need an app on the iPad that can read those files that you want to transfer. Adobe Reader and iBooks are two free apps that will read PDF files. Adobe Reader is much more robust than iBooks as it offers so many more features like renaming files, creating folders, annotating, highlights, etc.
Download Adobe Reader in the App Store. Then read this about file sharing with iTunes.
iOS: About File Sharing - Support - Apple
There are other ways to get files to the iPad, like email, DropBox and some other apps that let you mount your iPad like a flash drive.
This should be helpful as well.

Best file format for PS and Illustrator files to be placed into ID

I'm writing a proposal using InDesign. It will be output to PDF for circulation among the team members; I imagine they will view it on a variety of screens and some will print it out on various desktop printers.
I have a variety of images, all in color, done in InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator that need to be placed into the propsal. Sizes range from 5x7 to 2x2. Some are quite complex with fine detail.
I've just viewed the proposal in ID Overprint Preview / High Quality Display. The images don't look great. Lots of ragged lines.
I usually save everything to JPEG with a quality of 80-90...but that is just a habit, I have no reason or justification for this practice.
I'm wondering if I should go back into the original ID, PS and AI files and resave them as something else before and then place them again.
Does anyone have any recommmendations or thoughts to offer?
I'm using CS4 on a MAC. My computer is a little bit underpowered for the project at hand, but I'm willing to put up with a bit of slow performance and lag if it results in a better end product.

Jagged lines is a hallmark of low resolution, not file type, or a lower quality screen preview than you think you are using. Check the Display performace settings again to be sure they really are correct, and if they're set to allow object level settings, you'll need to verify that each object is also set correctly.
Beond that, saving as .jpeg is always destructive. For the web, that's fine, but for print you should never use anything, in my opinion, but the highest quality settings for saving jpegs, and I advise again using jpeg at all. If you image is all raster data (pixels) save as .psd or .tif. If it has live type or other vector content, save as Photoshop PDF. In Illustrator save as .ai or PDF with Illustrator editing capability. If you change the extension of the Photoshop PDFs to PDP they will open in Photoshop instead of Acrobat when you use Edit Original.
As I said, the jaggies are a hallmark of low resolution. We often have people tell us that the file is 300 ppi, but it turns out that's at some very small dimension and the imaga has been scaled up in ID. Both the Links panel and Info panel can show you the resolution information for your images. There will be two numbers, actual and effective. Effective resolution is the only number that matters. For printing on a desktop printer I like to see a minimum of 150 ppi, but you might get away with as low as 90 for a non-critical image. For press 300 ppi would be the rule of thumb, and dropping below 200 is asking for trouble.
How the file looks in ID is not nearly as informative as how a PDF exported from the file looks, or prints. For a high-res image in ID you are still looking at a lower resolution screen preview, not the actual image as it will be output. Export settings that downsample too far or apply too much compression to reduce file size can also turn a good document into a clunker.

Setting path for third party class files

I am using some third party classfiles in my JSPs for JDBC. When I use these files, in normal Java Programs everything is working fine ( I am setting the path by using the CLASSPATH environment variable).
I did not understandt how to set classpath for these files (com.informix.jdbc.*) for use in iplanet 6.0.
I have tried to keep this "com" folder in /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.3_01/lib folder, but, it is not still working. I tried to change the start-jvm file, but, I am still having problems.
Can someone help me !!!
--Murthy.

Hi,
I changed the jvm12.conf file, but, it did not work. I changed the JDK Runtime Classpath in the Global Settings tab of the Administration Server and restarted both the webserver and the administration server and it worked.
Thanks for your response.

Equations for Keynote and Powerpoint Files?

I copied a powerpoint file onto my Ipad2 and used Keynote to open it. Most everything is fine, but Ipad-Keynote won't recognize the equations.
The Keynote on my Macbook pro will recognize them. The equations were made with Microsoft's equation editor.
Is there any way to get Keynote to recognize equations? Alternatively, is there some app for the Ipad that will recognize/show/allow-editing of
equations in powerpoint?

This is fine, but not really the answer. If you look at the MathType web site, you'll find the following in response to queries about Equation Editor on the iPad:
"Is there a version of MathType for Apple Pages on iPad/iPhone?
No. Not yet anyway. Since Apple released Pages for iPad, we have received numerous inquiries regarding creating and editing MathType equations in that environment. Since the iPhone uses the same software as iPad, it is reasonable to expect that Apple will offer a version of Pages that works on it as well someday soon.
Pages for iPad lacks MathType support
As you probably know, Apple added support for MathType to iWork '09 in all three iWork apps, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. This required Apple to do software development in these applications. We made only minor changes to MathType to make this work. Before we can make a version of MathType for Pages, or any other iWork app, Apple must do similar work in Pages for iPad.
Why don't you guys work this out with Apple?
We would love to. However, it is not just a matter of us picking up the phone and calling Tim Cook, or anyone else in Apple management for that matter. Big companies like Apple get inundated daily with requests from smaller companies to make things work in their favor. Like all smart companies, Apple does not set its market direction by listening to other companies but by listening to its customers.
So what can I do?
The best thing you can do to get MathType support added to Pages for iPad/iPhone is to tell Apple that it is important to you. Apple has a Pages for iPad Comment Form that is perfect for giving them feedback. Encourage your friends and associates to also let them know that you would like MathType support in Pages for iPad. If you work at a university or other educational institution, or company with lots of iPads, you may have other avenues open to give Apple feedback. Companies love feedback from their customers. We do and we are pretty sure Apple does also."
So it is really a two-way street, and I am sure that a small company like Design Science would LOVE to be able to have their product as an iPad app, or even as transferable from a MacBook. However, it seems that for them to ready MathType for the iPad, it needs a little effort from Apple, which has not, so far, been forthcoming. Again, it comes down to the question of why has Apple turned its back on the tablet concept, when they had it first, and as a company trying so hard to dominate the education market? It makes no sense, unless they really just don't care about it, and would rather sell iPhones and iPads for folk to play Angry Birds on.
And telling me I have to use PowerPoint is not the solution - PowerPoint is clunky and ugly, compared to Keynote on the MacBook, and there's no reason to drive a Yugo when a Jaguar is sitting in the garage, waiting for a fourth wheel.
I really would like to now what apps can sit on an iPad and allow me to handwrite on top of a Keynote presentation, and include complex equations without inordinate additional effort. None of the MacBook solutions is satisfactory, especially when I a) have video content, and b) am trying to record the lecture to a Podcast at the same time, and I don't see that possibility on the iPad yet. Technology is supposed to make preparing and delivering material to students easier and more efficient - the reality is that, with thestill crude tools currently available, doing so can become an infinite sink for time and resources. It may be true that where there is a will there is a way, but what there is not is an infinite supply of time to make it happen.

Office 365 installed, can't choose Word 2007 as the default program for docx and doc files

I have a client who just installed Office 365 on his Windows 7 PC. He still has Office 2007 installed. He's struggling with the changes in Word 2013 and wants me to uninstall Office 365. I thought I'd just set the default program association for .docx and
.doc programs to Word 2007 but that doesn't seem possible. I can choose Default Programs, Associate a file type etc., and find the .docx extension. The current default is Word (desktop). I highlight the .docx extension and choose Change Program. The older
version of Word isn't listed so I click Browse and find Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\winword.exe. Click OK, OK, OK, etc, but .docx files still open in Word 2013. The Default Program applet evidently sees all versions of Word as the same and refuses
to change the association. How do I accomplish this ridiculously simple task?

Fixed. Used a great little app from NirSoft called
FileTypesMan. The built-in Windows utilities are getting worse by leaps and bounds.

Separate drives for samples and audio files..?

Hello all
I am moving to Macbook Pro (previous gen) with Logic Studio after years of PC (feel like I’m standing on the edge of a precipice staring anxiously down!). Will be looking to use it live in our 3-piece band to run existing MIDI Files and live triggered BFD drum samples
Have decided on getting an Echo AudioFire 8 to handle the necessary Audio outs and MIDI connections and will be replacing our rather dated Korg 05R/W General MIDI module with virtual instruments / samples libraries
I am thinking that once the Bass (probably Orange Tree CoreBass samples through Kontakt 3) and Orchestration (still wide open to suggestions on that!) are done, they’ll be exported as Audio files or perhaps ‘frozen’ in Logic to ease the load on real-time processing
Here’s the query then:
*Assuming that the internal drive will be for OS and programs only, will having the sample libraries and exported audio song files on separate physical drives from each other pay dividends – particularly when considering that the audio tracks (probably no more than two or three stereo files) will be streaming whilst BFD is triggering live samples via MIDI input..? I’m wondering if the samples and audio separate drives situation will be considerable beneficial, or given the intended application, would this approach be merely over-speccing things?*
If that is thought to be the best approach, what do you believe to be the best way of hooking these up? I plan on using the FW400 port for the Echo AudioFire 8 and have ordered a Sonnet Express eSATA Card to hook up an external drive. Should any additional drive look to use the FW800 port or should I simply tag into the spare eSATA port on the Sonnet Express Card..? My concern with the latter is that a bottleneck would occur in the Express port and defeat the whole object
I would really appreciate any thoughts on this
Many thanks
Clive

My opinions:
If you're really only talking about 2-3 audio tracks per song, having them on a separate drive is not going to make that much difference. I'd recommend just using one drive for both audio and samples for now, you can always add another hard drive later if you're getting disk errors, or if you start using more audio tracks.
If you're looking for a good orchestral library, I recommend Vienna Symphonic Library Special Edition (about $500). VSL sounds great, and this particular set is much cheaper and still gives you a good amount of instruments/articulations.
If you do go with a third drive, use both eSATA ports. Even with a little bottlenecking, you should see substantially faster performance than with FW800. The data transfer rate of eSATA is over 3 times that of FW800.

Hi,
I found at least one thing wrong. In the decrypt
method you are reading from 'fInputStream_' rather
than 'dataInStream'.
Worked for me on MSWord after changing this!
