Standby on HP Pavillion zv5400

Hi Arch-friends,
I got the laptop mentioned in the topic and I bought an Benq X-Touch 122 keyboard. It is all working fine, but the keyboard has one key with a half-moon underneath it. When I press this key, the screen of my laptop turns black und the power light starts blinking. I think this is standby. This key works without me having assigned anything to it !!! (For all other keys I use lineak)
The problem is whenever I'm in this standby and want to return backthe screen remains black. Does anybody have an idea how to get my laptop back running from this mode or how to assign another function to it (when I assign a function to this key with lineak, this function works but the laptop will go into standby anyway) ?
It is not very good having a key which can kill your laptop session even if touched by accident. Please help me

I'm sorry, but I've already done that and what these posts were saying didn't work for me. Configuring the files of any standby-program can't do it because i didn't install any. Adding the words "highres=off nohz=off" to menu.lst in grub doesn't seem to do anything and switching between the terminals doesn't give me anything to see. Even pressing strg+alt+f1 doesn't give me the console, the screen stays black !
Thank you very much for that tip, but I already searched anywhere before I posted. Does anybody have another idea ? Knowing how to give the button another function would be a good way, too because the only thing I don't want to have is the "button of death"

HP Pavillion dv9920ed CPU Upgrade, What is Max CPU

I think the subject says enough.
What is the MAX compatable CPU for a HP Pavillion dv9920ed, ProductNumebr: FM650EA
I can't find any info except that it's deliverred with a intel T5750. I have a T7500 laying around, but can it also handle a T9300 for example?

Hi:
As long as you have BIOS vF.45 or newer installed, you can go higher...
Please see the BIOS release notes for vF.45...
Fix/Enhancement
Adds support for Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile Processors T8100, T8300, T9300, and T9500.
Fixes issue where the 1394 port may not work after resuming from Standby mode.
One word of warning...if you have installed W7 on your notebook, you cannot update the BIOS.
It can only be done in Vista.
Failure to heed this warning = dead dv9920.

Creating a new schema in a Logical Standby Database

Hi All,
I am experimenting with logical standby databases for the purpose of reporting, and have not been able to create a new schema in the logical standby database - one of the key features of logical standbys.
I have setup primary and logical standby databases, and they seem to be running just fine - changes are moved from the primary to the standby and queries on the standby seem to run ok.
However, If I try to create a new schema on the logical standby, that does not exist on the primary, I get "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges" errors when I try to create new objects.
Show below are the steps I have taken to create the new schema on the logical standby. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Officejet No Longer Recognized by Pavillion Desktop

My HP Pavillion Desktop (product a5t49aar) no longer recognizes my HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-all-in-one N911a printer (product cm749a). Have already shut both down and restarted. Have already checked my wireless connection. Printer believes it is connected. Desktop resolutely begs to differ.
Copy function is fine. Can't print anything from the desktop and can't scan anything to the desktop. My drivers are up to date according to diagnostics.
Tried searching help and using HP Support Assistant, but no luck other than found info saying to do all of the above.
Help please...
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello @FrazzledOne,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing an issue when trying to wirelessly print and scan from your Windows 7 computer to your HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this issue. To start I am going to have you verify if your computer is actually 'seeing' your wireless Officejet still. From there, we will resolve either the networking issue on the printer or connectivity issue on your computer. Please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Check Connectivity:
On the front panel of your HP Officejet select the Setup (wrench) button
Touch Network Menu
Touch View Network Summary
Select View Wireless
Take note of the IP Address and Network Name SSID that displays
On your Windows computer open up the internet browser
In the address bar type in the printers IP Address. Do not include www.
Search to that website.
If a website for your printer opens: This proves with 100% certainty that your printer and computer are still communicating wirelessly. There is a chance that a change of IP Address on the printer has caused a wireless communication issue with your computer. To resolve any such conflicts can I please have you click here to download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool. This Tool will run on your computer and 'fix printing' issues for you. Should any driver, software, or connection conflicts be found than the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool will attempt to resolve those conflicts for you.
If a website for your printer fails to open: This shows that your printer and computer are not 'talking' over your network. Please ensure that your Windows 7 computer is still connected to the same Network Name SSID that your printer is connected to. Avoid connecting to 'guest' networks. If your computer is on the correct network, yet the issue persists, please proceed with the steps below.
Step 2: Powercycle Network:
First, unplug the power cable to your Router
Once your Router is unplugged, turn off your printer
Next, shut down your computer
After 30 seconds to 1 minute, plug your Router back in
Next, turn on your printer
Turn on the computer
After a few minutes check on your computer to ensure that you are able to browse to websites again. Once your internet is responding, can you please gather the IP Address off your printer again. Once you have the IP Address try to access the printers website on your Windows 7 computer through the internet browser.
If the website opens successfully: Please try printing. if printing fails, run the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool that I provided the link for above to correct the IP Address change. Just choose 'fix printing' and the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool should do all the work for you.
If the website still fails to load: Your printer is still not 'talking' to your wireless computer. Please proceed to reconfigure your printer on the network.
Step 3: Restore and Reconfigure Wireless:
Select the Setup button on the front of your printer
Select the Network menu
Select Restore Network Defaults.
Once the Restore is complete select Wireless Setup Wizard under the Network menu
Select your Network Name SSID
Enter your wireless password (key). This is case sensitive
Once the wireless configuration is successful please test wireless printing again.
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. Good luck!

Hello;
Script has to be run from auxiliary.
Great details, but what I don't see is how you connect in RMAN.
Example
Start RMAN
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target=sys/@recover2 auxiliary=sys/@reclone
Recovery Manager: Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production on Wed Feb 22 14:50:31 2012

connected to target database: RECOVER2 (DBID=3806912436)
connected to auxiliary database: RECLONE (not mounted)Nothing in your tnsnames or listener jumps out as wrong. I copied them into my text editor and compared against my working ones.
Generally for active duplication I start the future standby on a pfile NOMOUNT.
Auxiliary Instance Initialization Parameters Needed :
DB_NAME
CONTROL_FILES
DB_BLOCK_SIZE
( add extra parameters like DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT instead of using the SET command - clean up standby spfile right after duplication )
Then start RMAN and finally run a single line duplication command.

I have an IDE disk which, till now, I used to keep in standby mode (it makes an audible humming noise when it's working which annoys me a lot :<). Today I noticed that after running `hdparm -y' on it, it would spin down but then it would immediately spin up again. I'm certain that the disk isn't being used and doesn't have any partitions mounted anywhere on the filesystem. Still, I'm unable to pinpoint the reason it's waking up.
Any ideas on why this is happening?
Edit: It appears that the disk gets into standby by itself after 10 minutes. I wish I knew where this value is coming from. O.o
Edit2: Those 10 minutes must be coming from `hdparm -S1 /dev/sdb'; maybe the hard drive has a lower limit in regard to this setting. :3
(I'm not sure what kind of information would be useful in order to troubleshoot this issue, but below are some bits I believe are relevant)

Here is what i get when i try that command.:
$ sudo hdparm -B 254 /dev/sdc
/dev/sdc:
setting Advanced Power Management level to 0xfe (254)
HDIO_DRIVE_CMD failed: Input/output error
APM_level = not supported
I tried other values also and its always the same error.
I just did another try with -y and the drive stayed in standby during ±40 minutes this time. The most annoying part is that is something that was not happening before I am pretty sure that it would stay in standby for days.
I also included my results for hdparm -I.:
$ sudo hdparm -I /dev/sdc

Logical standby and Primary keys

Hi All,
Why primary keys are essential for creating logical standby database? I have created a logical standby database on testing basis without having primary keys on most of the tables and it's working fine. I have not event put my main DB in force logging mode.

I have not event put my main DB in force logging mode. This is because, redo log files or standby redo logfiles transforms into set of sql statements to update logical standby.
Have you done any DML operations with nologging options and do you notice any errors in the alert.log? I just curious to know.
But I wanted to know that, while system tablespace in hot backup mode,In the absence of both a primary key and a nonnull unique constraint/index, all columns of bounded size are logged as part of the UPDATE statement to identify the modified row. In other words, all columns except those with the following types are logged: LONG, LOB, LONG RAW, object type, and collections.

Logical standby and truncate partition

Hi,
I'm evaluation whether a logical standby database would meet our needs.
We have a live database and want a reporting database that is identical to the live one, just minutes behind in time to the live one, plus we want to create other summary tables etc on the reporting db.
Logical standby seems to meet our needs but I have one query.
- On the live db the most of the tables are organized by date partitions and only 5 days are kept with new partitions being created every night for the forthcoming days and the oldest date partitions being truncated.
On the reporting database we want to keep 30 days partitions.
Can we have all the DDL and DML from live being applied to the standby APART from the specific truncate partition statements?
Many Thanks,
Kailas

Addendum.
If you can , it is better to truncate the partition but not drop it, after exporting the partition for archive purposes. If you ever need to bring the data back, the data will go into the correct partition . If the table structure has been changed by adding or lengthening columns, this will still work OK where column names match.
Test ease of restoration of archived data to existing and non-existing partitions with altered structure (dropped columns,added columns, renamed columns) for yourself though.
Regards, Vin.
PS. When splitting maxdata partition to create new 'highest' partition, use a small initial extent then the 'next' being the expected real size needed. When the partition is truncated, the only space that should remain un-claimable will be that allocated for the initial extent.

Logical Standby Database in NOARCHIVE Mode

Hi,
I have configured a Logical Standby Database for Reporting purposes. A Physical Standby Database is running for MAA. i.e. in case of Role Transition (switch/Failover) the Physical Stdby Db will get the role of the Primary.
The logical standby database is creating a lot of Archive Redologs files, nearly every minute. Redolog files are 50MB and there is no work done in db during the time. I'm NOT using Standby Redolog files.
Is there a need for logical standby database to be in NOARCHIVELOG mode? The Primary is definatley in ARCHIVELOG mode.
Thanks for any responses.
regards
Sahba

hi,
well there are two things to the above:-
1. there was an archive file nearly every minute:
this is due to a db recovery. for some reason, the db was in inconsistent state, after a sudden shutdownof the OS. I was on a test environment, on windows vista, unfortunately. unimportant ... a reboot solved it.
2. Logical standby db in NOARCHIVE MODE when setup for the purpose of Reporting.
As long as the MAA configured for the primary db, such as physical standby db, and a second, the logical standby db setup purely for the purpose of reporting, which then can run with NOARCHIVELOG mode, after converting the physical standby db to logical.
logical standby db uses Streams architecture, so this method brings cost, time and performance advantages to the customer.

Sahba

Create a standby logical database in 10g

Hi,
My OS is Windows 2003, using oracle 10g software.. I want to know steps to create a logical standby database from primary database? I read the Dataguard concepts and administration guide, its confusing where it says to add the roles for primary and standby database in init.ora file? Could someone please provide steps to configure...
Thank you.

If you need the entire database to a single location ... use Data Guard.
If you need to specify tables, columns, schemas, rules, and are in a
publish-subscribe situation use Streams.
Both are share a common architecture.

Best practice on using Flashback and Logical Standby

Hello,
I'm testing a fail-back scenario where I first need to activate a logical standby, then do some dummy transactions before I flashback this db and resme the redo apply. Here is what the steps look like:
1)     Ensure logical standby is in-sync with primary
2)     Enable flashback on standby
3)     Create a flashback guaranteed restore point
4)     Defer log shipping from primary
5)     Activate the logical standby so it’s fully open to read-write
6)     Dummy activities against the standby (which is now fully open)
7)     Flashback the database to the guaranteed checkpoint
8)     Resume log shipping on primary
9)     Resume redo apply on secondary
In the end, i can see the log shipping is happening but the logical standby does not apply any of these..and there is no error in the alert log on Standby side. But the following query could explains why the standby is idle:
SELECT TYPE, HIGH_SCN, STATUS FROM V$LOGSTDBY;
TYPE HIGH_SCN STATUS
COORDINATOR ORA-16240: Waiting for log file (thread# 2, sequence# 0)
ORA-16240: Waiting for log file (thread# string, sequence# string)
Cause: Process is idle waiting for additional log file to be available.
Action: No action necessary. This informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
I dont understand why it's looking for sequence #0 after the flashback.
Thanks for the help.

Do you really have a thread 2? ( Redo thread number )
Quick check
select applied_scn,latest_scn from v$logstdby_progress;Use the DBA_LOGSTDBY_LOG View if you don't have a thread 2 then the sequence# is meaningless.
COLUMN DICT_BEGIN FORMAT A10;
SELECT FILE_NAME, SEQUENCE#, FIRST_CHANGE#, NEXT_CHANGE#,

Logical standby in noarchive mode

Hello,
does anybody know if it is possible to run a logical standby (10gR2) in noarchivelog mode?
For my understanding it should be possible, why not... But I can't find a piece of documentation which prove this.
Thanks in advance,
Boris...

I also was curious if setting up a Logical Standby in noarchivelog mode was possible. It looks like it is...
We use this simply as a reporting copy of our data. Our analysts do not change any of this data. They just need it to be fairly current (~3 days). At this point, there isn't any need to generate archivelogs so we want to disable the feature to minimize our maintenance and our storage requirements.
