Steps to refresh content DB

Hey SharePoint Fam,
Trying to figure out easiest way to refresh main content DB every 5 months.  Have QA & Staging environment that I'd like to refresh prod content db quarterly but not sure of correct process/steps to take in sql studio.  Do i need to detach/dismount
source DB before i do anything else first?
Below are my steps but I think I am doing something wrong due to DB's needing to be seperated from farm 
My Steps:
1) Copy previous day backup Prod SQL ContentDB to targeted SQL machine
2) Detach DB from both sites
3) Then do restore using SQL Server Management Restore Option From Device and point to file that was copied over from prod
4) Double check the file and log locations under restore the database files and then click ok
5) Once it completes run the Dismount-SPContentDatabse "DBNameHere"
6) then run Mount-SPContenetDatabase "DBNameHere" -DatabaseServer "DBServerHere" -WebApplication http://sitename
Thanks N Advance

  • CF Builder 2 --Zzz Refresh Content (Sleeping) ... frustrating

    What is this "Zzz Refresh Content (Sleeping) in the progress of CF Builder 2? Any time this comes up, it freezes CF Builder.
    This is thing in CF Builder 2 is becoming so frustrating. You can hardly save codes without this thing hanging.

    I get this exact same issue and it's incredibly frustrating, to the point that I may have to switch IDE's.
    To check, Umuayo are you editing files over a network?
    This is how I work - projects held on my local Windows Server 2003 development server (for working on multiple work stations and on the same platform as deployment).
    I suspect that CFBuilder has issues with network editing as I've noticed problems with this since version 1.
    Is there any fix to this? I've turned off just about every option that has been shown to improve performance from various guides.
    Would be really good to resolve this as I don't really want to switch to a different IDE.
    I'm running the latest 2.0.1 with the Java 7 jvm.dll (though had the same issue with the stock JVM and Java 6).

  • Can not refresh contents of finder windows

    I can not get my finder windows to refresh their contents. My picture folder is the one that really bothers me. When I am trying to upload pictures to the internet, the picture folder is never accurate. I have tried the refresh finder apple script, restarting the computer, opening and closing the window, nothing seems to work.
    The content is there, when I search for a specific picture file it is there, but it is not located in the right subfolder. I download and manage my pictures on kodak easyshare.

    Hi there,
    The content is there, when I search for a specific picture file it is there, but it is not located in the right subfolder.
    Hmmm, are you saying something is moving them? Or the Finder isn't opening them to the right folder?
    Have you tried this one...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/10958253
    Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.
    Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
    Move this file to the desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    reboot when it completes.

  • Hyperlinked JSP Page does not refresh contents

    I have a very typical problem.
    In my application whenever I call a jsp page using hyperlink without any querystring attached to it the page called does not refresh. However when I press refresh on the browser it does refresh the contents. Basically in this page I am using some session variables to fetch data. So I do not call the page by passing querystring instead set the attributes of session variables and then the page is called as a hyperlink.
    However if I call the same page using submit the values are refreshed.
    Help on this urgently will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Manish

    Just set 'no-cache' option for the jsp page and test it. It should work. only you need to do is
    response.setDateHeader("Expires",0);
         response.setHeader("Pragma","no-cache");
         if(request.getProtocol().equals("HTTP/1.1")) {
              response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache");
    have fun!!

  • Refreshing contents of ALV grid

    I am displaying 2 ALV grids in a splitter container on screen 100. There is an option for refresh on this screen to refresh the entries in both the grids (if any change). This refresh works fine using method REFRESH_TABLE_DISPLAY for both top and bottom grid contents.
    After processing the contents in screen 100, the user can navigate to screen 200 to view results of the current run. This screen also holds an ALV grid display of results on a custom container. When returning to screen 100 from 200, the results in top grid of screen 100 are fixed. The refresh option now only works with the grid on bottom container and not the top. I have tried using both REFRESH_TABLE_DISPLAY and SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY options and neither worked.
    How do I refresh the ALV to use the contents from the new dataset?
    Regards,
    Suri.

    Are you used refresh in PBO of 100 ?
    Like
        call method g_grid->refresh_table_display.   " Top grid
        call method g_grid1->refresh_table_display. " bottom grid

  • Pre requisites and steps for BI content installation.

    Hi ,
    We need to install Complete BI content in our production system , I am aware of the steps to be exeuted in SPRO but wanted to know the complete procedure step by step .
    1) what are the pre requisites and checks before and after doing activation in SPRO .
    2) If we already have some BI content installed and now we do complete reinstallation, will that create any issue .
    3)Can we do activation directly in Production ?
    Thanks,
    Neetika.

    Hello Neethika, for your second question
    2) If we already have some BI content installed and now we do complete reinstallation, will that create any issue
    If the object which you are going to install is already active and if it is customised, and if you go for reinstallation, new standard object will reinstall the already customised existing oblect. However, if you select the check box MATCH (X) or COPY and do the installation, object will be activated with retainging customisation. so there will be no need to customise it again.
    It is always recommended to go for manual collection of objects rather then automatic collection, because there might be wierd chances that all the objects might not get activated and this will cause a problem while you move the same from DEV to PRODUCTION.
    feel free write if any further clarication need
    Thanks

  • Steps in Technical Content (0TCT*)

    Hello,
    Please let me know the steps are correct or something is missing.
    1) Activate the Technical content just like business content (say activating cube 0TCT_C03: Data Manager Statistics )
    2) Check the extractor in BW, t-code RSA3 (self system) to see number of records
    3) Load the data using infopackage and schedule delta
    4) Run the standard query on this cube
    Just need some clarification on "Activating Data Transfers for BW Statistics". This can be found in menubar Tools --> BI Statistics Setting. I can understand that here you can activate and de-activate individually the processes for saving and transferring data. But if we dont do this, can't we see the data in reports. Is this mandatory?
    Please advice
    Regards
    Pank SAP

    Hi Pank,
    For all the Queries/Workbooks for which you want to collect Stats and see them in Reports, you have to activate or mark them/relevant Infoproviders in Datawarehousing Workbench.Tools> BI Statistics Settings.
    For the new statistics, you have to determine the objects for which you want to update the statistics and to what level of detail. You call this dialog from the Data Warehousing Workbench. It has changed completely from the previous statistics functionality.
    In addition, you can manually assign a priority to the queries, InfoProviders and process chains. This priority is evaluated in the statistics. This can be used to establish a ranking or to exclude objects from the display in a report.
    Please search in SAP Help, you will get more stuff.

  • Steps in BI Content Objects Install & Activation

    Hi
    We are planning to activate new Business Content Objects (Info objects, Cubes, DSO, Datasources...etc) in our BI 7.0 System
    Our BI System already got objects that are customized and in use.
    What are the pre activation steps I need to perform to see the impacted objects before activation?
    Ex:Lets say 0PROFIT_CETER is an Object that is available in the new BI Content activation objects
    But 0PROFIT_CETER is already activated  and customized (z attributes) in our systems so if I activate & install it again its going to overwrite everything
    So how can we avoid these kind of things
    Thanks

    Hi Maxicosi,
    As you are planning to activate new business content objects in BI system,
    1) the first step would be to identify all the objects those are customized and those probably have chances to get overwritten during the business content installation
    2) Installing business content is a very careful task if already an active version of objects are available in the system especially those which are customized, plus identify the objects that are required by the business only those can be installed if needed
    3) Tcode: RSORBCT , Under grouping you might have to select "Only Necessary Objects" if you know all the objects that you would want to install, else you have to take it step by step, first select " In Data Flow Before" and select the "Info Area" that you would wan to install
    4) Keep the Collection mode "Collect Automatically"
    5) Make sure the source system assignment is been maintained
    6) Once all the objects are populated you might have to drill down to each and every last level to make sure what you are about to install
    7) you would find some existing objects which would show a green signal that they have already been installed so you would have to also select "Match (X) or Copy"
    8) After finishing the selection its recommended to simulate the installation you would find the option under "Install"
    9) Simulation would provide all the detail log of what objects are existing and about to be changed and predict any errors so that you can make sure you do the necessary changes
    10) Then once you are sure that every thing is been verified you can install  the Business Content in Background and monitor the job.
    Hope this information would be helpful.

  • Refresh content list in Front Row?

    I'm using Front Row on a Mac Mini as a mediacenter for my LCD-TV. This Mac is only turned on as soon as I'm actually using it for listening to music, watching movies and video podcasts, etc.. When turned on it automatically starts Front Row and iTunes. Via iTunes I subscribed to various video podcasts which are downloaded as soon as a new episode is available.
    The problem is that when new podcasts are available, iTunes actually starts downloading but they are not displayed in Front Row until I quit both Front Row and iTunes and restart Front Row. If I don't do this Front Row either says that there are no podcasts at all (even not the old ones) or it just doesn't display the new ones although they are finished downloading.
    Is there a way to refresh the content list (eg for podcasts) in Front Row, either automatically or manual, without performing the sequence above? Or is it possible to make Front Row download the new episodes of the subscribed podcasts by itself without using iTunes?
    Thanks.

    first question:
    are your movies in itunes also, thus appearing in front row with all the proper meta data? If so, you'll have to delete them from itunes also. Deleting just the movie from the HDD isn't enough

  • Scroll pane refresh content

    I have background in as3, but this is my first attempt at
    building an application with classes.
    I have a scrollpane that populates with an image.
    MyScroll.as
    public var sp:ScrollPane=new ScrollPane();
    public var imagePath:String = "images/cover.jpg";
    public function createScrollPane(imagePath:String):void {
    sp.move(0,40);
    sp.source = imagePath;
    addChild(sp);
    I have a navigation at the bottom that returns the image name
    from an array that I want to refresh/load/source the scrollpane
    with, but none will work!
    SpreadNav.as
    public function _loadPage(evt:MouseEvent) {
    var str:String = evt.target.name;
    var mySlice = str.substr(10);
    myLoadImages.loadImage();
    myScrollCall.reCreateScrollPane(myNpXMLToArray.highArray[mySlice]);
    I also have a button generated that does reload the
    scrollpane, so I know that it can replace the source.
    MyScroll.as
    public function setClick():void {
    var refreshButton:Button = new Button();
    refreshButton.emphasized = true;
    refreshButton.label = "refreshPane()";
    refreshButton.move(10, 10);
    refreshButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
    clickHandler);
    addChild(refreshButton);
    public function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
    sp.source = "images/1.jpg";
    But when I try to load it from the array nothing
    happens...and I have tried putting the image name right in there,
    from the array, refresh, source, contentPath is old, redraw(true)
    is old and I am running out of things to try
    MyScroll.as
    public function reCreateScrollPane(imagePath2:String):void {

    Can anyone suggest a solution?
    Thanks

    i wonder why i bother with this forum sometimes. i always end
    up answering my own questions an hour later. so the problem was
    that the testes.swf was using a startDrag function and the
    scrollPane in which it resided has its startDrag set to true. i
    guess you can't have both elements dragging at the same time. would
    cause serious upset. so yeah, there you go.
