Snapshot issue

Hi all,
I am quite new to oracle an I have a problem. I am trying to import a database wich I exported from our production DB to our test DB.
So I have from production schema X. Also on my DB I have schema X with exactly the same. But I want to add this db to a different schema.
I did this:
imp db_new/db_new@adora file=dv_new.dmp fromuser=X touser=db_new (already created the user)
All work ok, until I get to materialized view, where I get this:
IMP-00015: following statement failed because the object already exists:
"CREATE SNAPSHOT LOG ON "X"."FACT_ACCT" WITH ROWID INCLUDING NEW VAL" .....
So why happens this? Above should be:
"CREATE SNAPSHOT LOG ON "db_new"."FACT_ACCT" WITH ROWID INCLUDING NEW VAL"...
Until here, all tables are created in the schema db_new.
I hope that you understood my problem.
Thank you very much!

imp db_new/db_new@adora file=dv_new.dmp fromuser=X touser=db_new (already created the user)
IMP-00015: following statement failed because the object already exists:
"CREATE SNAPSHOT LOG ON "X"."FACT_ACCT" WITH ROWID INCLUDING NEW VAL" .....
So why happens this? Above should be:
"CREATE SNAPSHOT LOG ON "db_new"."FACT_ACCT" WITH ROWID INCLUDING NEW VAL"...I agree with Robert that it looks like a bug. You are telling it what new user to use and it is using the old user in the create statement. If you have a metalink, uh, that's My Oracle Support now, account go there and see if this is a recognized bug. My Oracle Support is a subscription ($$$) site that provides detailed techinal information about the Oracle database.

HR - Daily Snapshot Issues with Future Dated Changes

The w_employee_daily_snp_f_1 table has timing issues. The effective end date on all per_all_assignments_f, per_all_people_f, etc always shows the time at midnight. For example: 08/14/2009 12:00:00 AM. When this person has a new assignment, for one day only, the extract does not pick up this person. See example below:
Employee 123 has a supervisor change and the new supervisor is effective on 6/15/2009
Emp Eff Start Date Eff End Date Supervisor
123 01/01/2009 12:00:00 AM 06/14/2009 12:00:00 AM 888
123 06/15/2009 12:00:00 AM 12/31/4712 12:00:00 AM 555
When the ETL runs on the night of 6/14/09 at 7:35:42 PM, this record does not get picked up because according to the apps.per_all_assignments_f table on the day of 6/14/09 this person does not have an active assignment. There is one day when the person (according to the system) does not have a supervisor. The next night, on 6/15/09 10:34:18 PM the record reappears and does so every night until the assignment record is again end dated. This only occurs for future dated HR changes.
This is a big problem because if the future dated change is for a supervisor, not only does the supervisor not appear in the daily snapshot, but either does any of his/her subordinates. Has anyone else run into this problem? How did you solve it? Did you customize all the HR mappings?

Have posted an updated version of the MST to my webspace here:
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/minkus/shockwave/shockwave115606mst2.zip
This new version fixes the following issues (changes to this version in bold):
MsiInstaller repair & errors on first run as non-admin (removes 'AppData' directory entries)
DCOM errors once Shockwave is installed (adds double quotes to the beginnning of LocalServer32 value)
Incorrect TypeLib paths in the registry (fixed to use built-in [SystemFolder] property)
Default CLSID description value missing (set to 'Shockwave ActiveX Control', as per the executable installer)
Incorrect Shockwave 10 paths in the registry (fixed to use built-in [SystemFolder] property)
Misspelt 'OptionalComponets' registry key (renamed to 'OptionalComponents')
Missing .dcr, .dir, .dxr Content Type registry values (included in the executable installer)
Fixed incorrect AppID registry key (set to use installer's [VERSION] variable)
Removed 'Launch SWDNLD.exe' shortcut created in Programs subfolder (people don't want this - see here)
I have tested this on my network and it all seems to work fine. Unfortunately my original plan to use the executable installer didn't work out as it does not include the Shockwave 10 compatibility components described here and here, so it looks like I'll have to keep this MST file up to date with the latest versions until Adobe fix the problems themselves...
If you want to see the changes that I have made, load up Adobe's 11.5.6.606 MSI file in Orca, then use Transform / Apply Transform to apply the MST, and look for the entries in green.
Please post any feedback to this thread, and I will try to respond if I can help!

Issue with SESCrawlerExport component Snapshot issue

Hi,
I am facing issue after installing SESCrawlerExport.
In "SES Crawler Export" page when I click "Take Snapshot" I am getting error saying "Aborted : Content Export already in progress".

Did any one face the same issue ever?

I see another issue now...
When I try to disable and the enable the crawler component through Component Wizard..
Its showing me an error to correct before enabling....
Its says:
*" The following errors must be corrected before the component 'SESCrawlerExport' can be enabled:*
The table 'SESCrawlerExport_Tracing' that is specified in the MergeRules table is not defined. Please eithe remove it from the MergerRules table or add to the ResourceDefinition table."+
But i see SESCrawlerExport_Tracing defined in both MergeRules and ResourceDefinition in the conponent HDA file.
So I suspect the aboting issue could be because of this issue
Did any one get this kind of exception ???
Can this is because of my SESCrawlerExport zip file(downloaded) that used for installation???

Hyper-V Snapshot Issue on Exchange server

Hyper-v 2008 R2
I have a 2TB host in which I am running 2 VM's
Exchange was a 900gb Fixed disk VM
Terminal server 200gb Fixed.
I was working remotely on my iPhone on the Exchange server (I know, don't ask) when I think I accidentally hit the snapshot button inside of Hyperv Manager.
The user called and said the server stopped working and I quickly realized it unexpectedly rebooted and the Address Book service failed to start automatically. I was trying to navigate my way around on my phone and thats when I think I hit the snapshot button.
I didn't realize this until 2 days later when looking inside my VHDS folder that a new AVHD file was created that was 818gb and timestamped exactly when I was working on it remotely.
The original VHD file was dated 2 days earlier and 825gb
The snapshot is NOT showing up in Hyperv Manager at all so I'm not sure what the best next steps are.
I figured I would first take the VM offline and export it to a another location before doing anything to preserve the Exchange server. I am running a Barracuda so I'm not worried about losing any email as that will trap everything.
I noticed in the settings of Hyperv Manager for Exchange that it is using the AVHD file as the primary file.
Questions
1 - If I take it offline, shouldn't the 2 files merge without me doing anything else? I just wasn't sure since the Snapshot does not show up in SCVMM or Hyperv manager.
2 - I should be able to see this process in SCVMM?
3- How long will it take to merge 800gb? I've seen varying results depending on disk speed, etc.
With an exchange server, this obviously needs to be done delicately without data loss. I assume my statement about the original Exporting of the VM will cover my bases for that?
Thoughts on how to proceed?
Thanks!
Jim

Hyper-V 2008 R2.. This was prior to live merging of snapshots.
What I am guessing is: the snapshot was taken, and in panic the snapshot was deleted.
This means that the VM remains in a snapshotted state, but the snapshot is removed from the GUI. Deleted snapshots do not show up in the GUI, but remain in place until the background merge process happens / is allowed to happen.
The only way for this snapshot to merge is to power off the VM and wait
for the merge to happen.
You can verify this by looking for pending merge events in the Hyper-V event logs ( events -> applications and services -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Hyper-V*
if you want to before scheduling your offline time.
Merge speed depends on the amount of change. You cannot predict it, you can only test to know.
Exporting the VM will keep the disk structure as it is. Taking a snapshot then exporting the snapshot will create a single VHD (but will take just as long as the merge itself if not longer).
I would check the logs for pending merge events (just to confirm, safety), if they exist then schedule some downtime and power off the VM for the duration of your maintenance window and watch for the merge.
Or, don't bother checking for the merge events and just schedule the downtime and power off the VM and wait.

Hyper V Snapshot Issue

Hello All,
I had one Hyper-V VM in that i took 5-6 snapshot's (Weekly). Due to this my physical HDD space is increased. So, i have deleted 2 snapshots and deleted some .avhd's.
After this process i have logged into the VM and found one drive was missing. Did checked the snapshot settings->IDE Controller-> Inspect-> "The differencing chain is broken." I lost all the files, but i have rebuilt the server from backup
data's.
Now i have 3 snapshots and one running vm, suppose if i delete the snapshot's it will merge to parent disk ?
Also please find below, in my 1st snapshot(12/14/2013) i have 3 .vhd's , in my 2nd snapshot (4/17/2014) i have 3 .avhd's , in my 3rd snapshot (4/18/2014) i have 2 .avhd's and in my running vm i have 3 .avhd's.
Time Office Virtual Machine – (12/14/2013 – 3:05.54 PM), it has 3 .vhd drives mapped.
(Backup Drive.vhd,

Can anyone tell me which one is best method to merge the snapshots, because in one snapshot i have 2 .avhd and in another i have 3 .avhd .
Please guide me.
Thanks,
Sankar

Hyper-V 6.1 = 2008 R2 (if I recall my versions properly)
When a snapshot is taken all virtual disks attached to the VM end up with a new AVHD attached to them.
You should only manually merge in a panic, no other way, situation.
The problem that you now have is, you manually deleted a snapshot disk instead of allowing Hyper-V to manage it for you (by shutting down the VM).
Thus you describe another snapshot disk that is now an orphan, because you deleted its parent.
You have not answered if you have powered off the VM to allow Hyper-V to perform the merge that it can.
You have not stated if there is a backup where you can recover the deleted AVHD.
If you have deleted all snapshots from the VM - power it off an let Hyper-V merge what it can and recover space. There will be events in the event logs that identify the missing AVHD and corresponding failures.
You can manually merge -

Read the entire article, all comments too.
Please be aware, that you have lost data. How that impacts your VM is unknown, what change has been lost is unknown.

CA Deployment Issue

Hi
We are facing an issue while doing CA project deployment. Deployment stuck at Applying phase. We tried with different projects but all are getting stuck in applying pahse of deployment.
Can someone help me identifying the issue?
Regards
Raj

There may be two reasons
1. Switching Data source
Check Nithin Statement.
2. Snapshot issue,
Look at snapshot id for defined agents,
If snapshot id is null or empty, u need to force the snapshot.
To do this, Search for 'VersionManager' component in merch server, get the latest snapshot id by using below query,
<query-items item-descriptor="snapshot"> ALL ORDER BY ID desc</query-items>
and force it in following component,
Go to "/atg/epub/DeploymentServer" component and force the latest snapshotId.

Using a Single Credentials for the Multiple Users

Hi Oracle Team ,
We are in the process of creating a Android App and communicate it to DMS for all the data to and fro .
Following this post Creating the Application User dynamically on the device , we tested the App with single credential ,
We found a Strange behavior of the App when it is tested from the two different devices with same username/pwd/url,
Usecase :
Device 1 : Added 5 records and synced . Sync successful .All data in server
Device 2 : Added 5 different records and synced . Sync Successful . No data of Device 2 in server but all the data added by Device 1 and which was in server before sync is in Device 2 .
The data added by Device 2 is missing , where it is ? , I checked the data in the $tables as well, no data ,
Is it a Snapshot issue ? , Why data is missing ? is it a defect or can't use DMS that way ?
Thanks,
Spurthi

Hi Spurthi,
This is not a reasonable use case. There are technical details to be explained, but just to clarify, the proper use case is to run one client (you can say one DMS user) on one device.
Thanks,
Winnie Hu

Failover Cluster, Hyper-V, Virtualised PDC and Time Sync

Hi,
I wonder if anyone can clear something up for me.
We have two hosts running failover cluster and hyper-v. On these hosts we two Virtual DCs (one of which is our PDC) as well as a number of member servers. In Hyper-V integration services we have set the time synchronisation option for each server including
the DCs. Each host is joined to the domain so that Failover Cluster works. We also have two physical domain controllers.
When we run w32tm /query /source we can see that the VMs, including the Virtual DCs are getting their time from the Hosts (VM IC Time Synchronization Provider) and when we run w32tm /query /source on the hosts we find that they are getting the time from
each other (host1 has host2 and host2 has host1).
We are experiencing some time drift and I wonder whether this is due to the PDC getting its time from the host, instead of having its w32time type parameter setup to be NTP instead of NT5DS?
What's the best practice for a situation like this??
Thanks in advance!
Stephen

yes, I was actually just digging the article out to post back but looks like you found it already.
i'm not aware of snapshot issues that you mention, its not something I've experienced, but if I was snapshotting a DC I would make sure if was running on 2012 hyper-v and the dc was also 2012, with the pdc being 2012 too. otherwise snapshotting a DC could cause
issues.

HDD size reporting

I noticed a lot of queries over the years about Finder and About This Mac reporting inaccurate files sizes and the mystery surrounding just what 'Other' meant exactly. Well, I am glad to say I have some answers for those still suffering:
1. 'Other' could be anything - swap files, hidden files - anything that doesn't come under the default headings.
2. Accurate reporting can be achieved by downloading OmniDiskSweeper [free] and typing the following command into Terminal [to reveal hidden files that it does not have permission to sweep]..........
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
3. Enter your password and select the drive you wish to sweep in the window that opens. Once all the hidden files are evaluated, you will probably be somewhere close to the Finder/About This Mac usuage totals. You will also have the opportunity to clean house to but .........BE CAREFUL!
Hope this helps.

Linc- Thanks for the heads-up! I did some more reasearch and I see that even without having Time Machine on, Mountain Lion started making local snapshots. So I found a great article for Mac laptops and Mountain Lion. I turned off local backups (I don't use time machine at all), via Terminal command: sudo tmutil disablelocal
Then I turned off Hibernation via Terminal command: sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
Then I deleted my sleep image via Terminal command: sudo rm /var/vm/sleepimage
Then via the Cocktail app, I disabled virtual memory swapping. I'm using 8GB of RAM so that's pretty pointless to have for me.
So the good news is that I reclaimed A BOATLOAD of space. In Disk Utility, I went from 123 GB available to 186 GB available. However, Disk Utility and the Finder status bar, and Get Info still show incorrect amounts. The Finder status bar and Get Info say I have 241 GB available. That's impossible since I only have a 256 SSD and I only am only using 63GB according to Disk Utility.
So there is definitely an issue with Get Info/Finder status bar reporting. Disk Utility seems to be reporting 100% accurate. About This Mac > Storage is also reporting correctly.
But thank you for pointing me to the local snapshot issue. That should be an option I have to enable, and if Time Machine is OFF, no snapshots should have ever been saved. I'm one of those who also doesn't like the "automatic" file saving without having to save. I miss the old SAVE AS as I used to know it. I would edit a file to my liking, then save as to another file. If I do that now, I have to revert the file I just worked on. Basically, I have to reverse the process and duplicate file, then work on that file and save.

Upgrading Hyper-V Server 2008R2 Cluster to 2012R2

I have a Hyper-V Server 2008R2 (free 'core' version) cluster that I would like to upgrade to Hyper-V Server 2012R2 (same 'core' version). I found
this document that seems to outline the process, however I have the following questions...
Any reason this process won't work on the "core" version of Hyper-V. i.e. "Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008R2". I currently have a 2-node 2008R2 HA cluster with "core" servers and am looking to migrate that cluster
to the "core" version of 2012R2.
Is there no way to do this "in place", meaning without a dedicated target server? It seems like the process assumes you just have extra servers sitting around that can act as targets. I suppose I could shuffle VMs off one cluster node,
evict that node from my current cluster, rebuild it with 2012R2 core, add it to a new cluster as the only node and carry on with the process outlined here? Once all VMs are on the new "cluster" of one 2012R2 node, I would destroy the original
cluster, rebuild those machines with 2012R2 and add them as nodes to the new cluster?
Any reason the "Failover Cluster Manager" tool, version 6.1, I've been using to manage my 2008R2 environment won't work to do the migration? Or are there new 2012 tools I need to have installed on my workstation. Remember, since this
is the "core" version I can't manage anything from the server.
Thanks,
Todd

Here's an update on what happened...
The first VM that failed turned out had 1 snapshot, which I know is a no no, but I generally never snapshot servers so it didn't even occur to me to check. So that's why the migrated VM wouldn't boot. When I recreated the VM manually and pointed
to the VHD file it obviously didn't include the AVHD content so it booted the server into a 2 month old state. That led to the domain problems since the AD server account password had changed sometime in the last 2 months. I tried a bunch of fixes
but the only thing that finally worked was to remove the server from the domain and re-join. Of course, that then broke Citrix, but that's getting off-topic.
The second VM that failed was because for some reason a CSV that it relied on was not migrated over and I didn't notice that in that in the report. And then I couldn't find any way to bring that CSV in after the fact. I re-ran the pre-migration
and it still didn't show it. Of course this is my biggest volume at 800GB. So I then re-mapped one of my old cluster nodes back to the LUN (after removing the new node), brought up the lost CSV, copied the VHD file on it to external media, brought
the old cluster down again, the new one up and was going to blow away that LUN and create it as a new CSV on the new cluster. Of course, when I went to go create the CSV it showed my LUN available for storage and I just had to add it and all the data
was brought with it. So 2 hours of copying for nothing! I'm not at all sure what happened with this problem, but it seems either rebooting the old cluster node or the new one jarred things lose.
Just wanted to report back saying everything is going again. And also to vent about how poor and riddled with pitfalls this migration is. The snapshot issue is ridiculous, how hard would it be for the tool to check for that and then throw an
error in the migration report?
For anyone that needs to upgrade from 2008 to 2012, good luck!

Thank you so much for the detailed reply, although this is not exactly what I was looking for.
Do we have links to the
No, it is not supported on 2008
Yes, it is supported on 2012
I understand it will run, in fact we have 4 test domains running in VM. I have even experienced the snapshot issue to my dismay. I will read over closer the bullet points so I can address them. But for this argument, I need an OFFICIaL
position. Links would be the evidence.
BlankMonkey
To answer your original question, below...
>>> "Are Active Directory Domain Controllers
OFFICIALLY supported on VMware???"
No. I agree with Hinte. You will NOT find anything from Microsoft
stating that they support DCs or any other of their server products virtualized on any third party hypervisor. It's not their product to support. That's like on Windows 2008 R2, you download the Intel NIC drivers from Dell, a Microsoft untested driver, in
order to team your NICs. Then something goes wrong with networking. You call Microsoft Support and ask to help, but they see that you have a third party driver you've downloaded and state they are not able to help you because you didn't use the built-in Intel
drivers, albeit the drivers do not offer teaming.
In Windows 2012 and newer, teaming is supported because they offer it with the built in drivers.
In KB888794 that you posted, they do mention VMware as hypervisor, but there's nothing in the KB implying or explicitly saying they support it.
But they will for their own hypervisor, and this is a pretty informative link:
Running Domain Controllers in Hyper-V
- Applies To: Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Virtualization.
This topic will be updated in order to make the guidance applicable to Windows Server 2012.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/virtual_active_directory_domain_controller_virtualization_hyperv(WS.10).aspx
Here are some links from VMware as far as their official position on DCs virtualization:
Virtualizing existing domain controllers in VMware vCenter Converter (1006996)

Windows Server 2012 VM-Generation ID Support in vSphere
http://blogs.vmware.com/apps/2013/01/windows-server-2012-vm-generation-id-support-in-vsphere.html
I hope they help provide you official VMware documentation supporting virtualized DCs.
If you want an official position from Microsoft about running virtualized DCs on VMware, a third party product, I highly doubt it.
However, I highly suggest contacting your Microsoft TAM (Technical Accounts Manager), if you have an account, for their official support on it. You also have the option to contact Microsoft Support.
I don't know the size of your organization, but if large enough, you can ask for a TAM to assist with products, purchases, discounts, and frontline support. If you don't have a TAM and would like to get started for your organization, here's the link to get

Other Files totaling 70GB

Two months ago i bought mac book air 13, 128 GB Hard Drive. A few days ago it showed me messsage that there is no enough space. Disk utility shows that 100 GB is used. when i calculated files, it turned out that there are "other files" that size 70GB in total. It is practically impossible for me to have used up 100GB. I counted my files and they all accounted maximum 50 GB. Then i removed all my files from mac book and cleared all folders, but disk utility anyway shows 70GB "Other files". what is the problem? i checked the recovery disk and it is clear.

Im about 100% sure what youve got going on is a LOCAL SNAPSHOTS issue (not really an issue)
basically your AIR is backing itself up TO itself (something i dont like).
you can read about it here, and you can also turn it off, stop it from happening anymore

VCB/VADP, ESX 4.1 and NetWare vm snapshot backup issue

Hi!
If you are running Netware as a guest in VMware ESX 4.1 and are using backup
software that uses the snapshot feature to backup the guests vmdk then you
may run into an issue that causes the snapshot to fail. This was just
documented by VMware on Feb 23 (two days ago) so you may have not seen this
yet. Here is the url to the VMware kb:
http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1029749
The fix is to install the older v4.0 vmware tools into the NetWare guest.
Cheers,
Ron

ZFS shrink and Storage Array snapshot GUID issues - RFE status

Anyone know where the ZFS team is on the RFE's for:
zpool shrink (vdev evacuate)
Allowing zpool guid changes so that you can import a zpool that has been Cloned/snapshot (ShadowImage, Snapmirror, etc) on the same host

Thanks, I am running this Areca 1320 in two other machines and this is the first I am encountering the issue. (hopefully its not the adapter). Nothing seems to want to just die anymore.
Anyhow I noticed these three errors:
errors: Permanent errors have been detected in the following files:
        <metadata>:<0x14f5d>
        <metadata>:<0x14f5e>
        <metadata>:<0x14f5f>Any way for me to correct these? This says metadata, so I am guessing it has something to do with the attributes on the file, like compression etc. So how would I identify which zfs attributes are at issue here? If I can get rid of the three errors I can at least get the array out of the degraded state.

UCCX Issue when doing VMWare Snapshots

Hi all.
I've been using UCCX 8.5 on VMWare with local storage for about a year. I use VEEAM Backup to make backups of all my virtual servers. One issue I've run accross is that when VEEAM takes a snapshot of the UCCX server, the agents are logged out of Cisco Agent Desktop and get an error. I've managed to work around this by making backups run after our call center is closed (Today, however, I accidentally ran a backup and irritated the call center managers when all their users got logged out).
I've surmised from the various documents I've read that snapshots are not supported. I'm wondering how others using CCX on VMWare do their backups and if there are any clever work-arounds to this issue.

Thanks for the reply Chris. I failed to mention that I am doing the DRS backups as well.
However, restoring the entire VM in the event of hardware failure is by far the simplest method of quick recovery.
