Third party backup software support for dataguard configurations

Any Oracle document about the subject?
I would be interested in an answer about backupexec 2010 r2 in particular, because reading the manual for its oracle agent there is information about Oracle/RMAN and RAC support, but nothing about Dataguard integration, that could be a value added.
Anyone using third party backup agents in a Dataguard configuration?
Interested in version 11gR2 on Linux.
Thanks,
Gianluca

yes, you should be able to use the full backup taken in middle and use the rest of the log backups taken afterwards to restore the database.while I do not use TSM, we use QUEST(DELL) LITESPEED, that takes full backup once a day and log backups
every 15mins.
if someone accidentally takes full backup in the middle of day with out 'copy only',
log sequence will break and successive log backups depend on this full back up.
while this should be prevented from happening in first place, you can still restore from native full backup and then apply log backups taken from third party taken after the native Full backup.
if this happens, I would restore the FULLBACKP with NORECOVERY using NATIVE SQL and then use lite speed syntax to restore the log backups.Remember, native sql cannot read third party formatted backups(atleast litespeed), thats why I restore the full backup
using native sql, since it was taken with native sql backup and log backups using litespeed syntax.
Hope it Helps!!
Thanks, well it was just a theory discussion we had about the issue. But none of us could find info on the internet easy to prove our point :) Thanks.

Third party backup software, how is the log sequence working?

Me and a colleague had a discussion about how third party software and full backups locally on the SQL works together.
If we use TSM that do full backups and then logbackups every hour in between for example.
If I between the two full backups from TSM accidently do a "non copy-only" full backup do I then also break the whole log sequence backup from then and untill the next TSM backup is?
Or can I use the full backup from my mistake and then take the log backups from TSM that occured after that fail and restore the database?
I guess this depends on the third party backup software, but in my mind it should work but according to him it doesn't.
Try to "paint" how I mean:
I = full TSM backup
- = log TSM
F = my fail backup full but not copy only.
I---F-------I
^ is where I would want to restore with both my full one and the logs from TSM. Hope you understand what I mean.

Third-party backup software

Hello,
I have just read that you can restore Windows 2008 to a different hardware, like Windows 7.
I was wondering: Is there the need of third-party software anymore?. I mean, you just backup the whole system in a network share or a san volume or elsewhere (outside the 2008 box), and that is that, no Acronis anymore.
Am I missing something?. To me, it looks so great.
Thanks in advance!

Hello Luis,
We can use bare metal restore process for windows server 2008 to restore it on dissimilar hardware.
Using inbuit windows backup admin console it is possible to restore windows 2008 or windows 7 on a different hardware, however for windows server 2008 you need to be cautious about the scsi/raid controller drivers.
For more information please look at the mentioned articles

Third party backup software help.

Hi!
I have zero computer skills and want to backup two virtual machines at my office. I created an Azure account and set up a backup schedule to a "backup container" at Microsoft. Went online and some said it is cheaper to store data in
a "storage container" as a BLOB, and will save $10. per month and will only cost $.024 per Gig. They recommended a third party like Cloudberry to configure the backup process and manage the storage. Does anyone (not affiliated with
the companys) have any advice on which product works well and is as idiot (me) proof as possible?

Hi,
You can use the Following link with the Video which guides you through on how to setup Cloudberry with you Azure account and setting up a storage account and container.
Once you have done that, you can follow the Backup wizard in Cloudberry to create the backup.

Hope this helps.

The best third party recovery software for OS X?

Can someone please recommend the best third party recovery software for OS X. Accidentally emtied my trash when I shouldn't have.
Thank you for your help.

General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.

How do you add a third party sensor to LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms?

I recently purchased an IR Sensor from Mindsensors (DIST-Nx-Long-v3) which I need for a SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping Application) that I am developing using the LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms software. I installed the Mindsonsors IR Sensor, and it works under NXT-G and RobotC, but am having trouble finding a way to get LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms to install the sensor.
The Mindsensors website gives the following instructions for installing the IR Sensor:
1.Unzip the folder mindsensors.com LVEE
2.Open a blank vi in LVEE
3.On the Block Diagram Go to Tools->Advanced->Edit Palette Set...
Unfortunately, on the Block Diagram of the LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms, there is no "Advanced->Edict Palette Set" under Tools.
As an alternative, I consulted the documentation that came with LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms. The Schematic Editor of LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms lists several sensors, i.e. the Lego Mindstorms sensors and several Hi-Teach (HT) sensors, but there are no procedures listed in the documentation for adding other third party sensors to the Functions Palette.
So, how does one go about adding a third party sensor to LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms?

Hi Ethan,
As you can see from my Word document, I am a little light on the proper terminology. That's because LVLM comes with inadequate documentation.
I have already followed your recommended protocol for installing a 3rd party sensor (in fact, its the protocol recommended by Mindsensors) with the application set in the Remote Mode (.lvrbt), and it does create a sub-palette with all the Mindsensors functions on it. But when I drag the Mindsensors icon to the Block Diagram and select "Distance Sensor," the Distance Sensor (an IR sensor) doesn't work (even though the Mindsensor's Distance Sensor does work with NXT-G, RobotC and LVLM under other circumstances (see below)).
If I repeat the above process with the application set in the Direct Mode (.vi), I also get the sub-palette with all the Mindsensors functions on it. When I drag the Mindsensors icon to the Block Diagram and select "Distance Sensor," the Distance Sensor does work.
What I need for my mapping application is for the Distance Sensor to work in the Remote Mode. I called NI tech support and the first engineer told me to simple drag the Mindsensors Functions (.vi) onto the Block Diagram. I did this, but when I selected the Distance Sensor, the icon appeared, but the sensor did not work. Since I have no idea what's under the hood of the vi or a function, I assumed that simply dragging the vi/function onto the desktop didn't install the vi/function properly. I went back to the Applications Engineer, and he confessed that he did not understand the LVLM product.
My frustration is being punted to new people, none of whom so far (other than you, of course) understand LVLM.

Integration between SAP and third party tax software

can some body explain me or provide me docs regarding integration between sap and third party tax software like vertex.
Thanks

Hi
First configure the same via the following menu path:
1.) IMG>Financial accounting>Financial accounting global settings>Taxes on sales/purchases>Basic settings>External tax calculation>Define physical destination
2.) Then test connection (option is available there).
3.) If the connection is successful, also verify that the external tax package installed supports the R/3 4.6 version of the API. You do that by going to:
System Information>Function List
Check if the following functions are listed:
RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_UPDATE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_FORCE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION
4.) Then test the tax data retrieval:
From SE37, select the relevant function modules like RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION.
The above 4 steps are necessary to satisfy that the RFC connection is established
Hope useful

Third Party Backups

Hello,
Can you tell me if third party vendor software and scripts are managing and taking our Oracle Databases backups
will Oracle Support repair these backups if need ? or is the up to the third party vendor ?
Thanks,

It's ultimately going to depend on what the problem is. Typically, submitting an SR with Oracle will help determine if the problem is Oracle's or the 3rd party vendors.

Can you specify third party JMS Provider in Weblogic appserver configuration

          Can you specify third party JMS Provider in Weblogic appserver configuration ???
          Only place i know of is that you can specify third party JMS Provider in MDB configuraion.
          DOES Weblogic has some kind of configuration files where you specify JMS Provider
          info (Like you can do that in JBOSS)


You can also specify a third-party JMS provider using the Messaging Bridge,
          which transfers messages from one queue or topic to another.
          And in general, inside WLS you can use any JMS provider you wish anywhere
          that you can also use WLS JMS. In an upcoming release, there will also be
          some support to make foreign JMS providers a little easier to configure.
          But why would you want to use another JMS provider anyway? ;-)

Third Party IMAP Software?

I'm a new BB owner! (switched from a Palm Centro) I've read most of the message threads about the BIS software for IMAP mail. Unfortunately I need something a little more comprehensive. Are there any third party apps out there for the Curve that will do folder-based IMAP?

If you are using Safari, then its data only. If you are using SMS, then it counts as text messages.

Third Party Scanner Software

Is there such a thing as Third Party Scanner Software?
If so, does anyone have any recomendations?

Vuescan is the way to go and it is updated regularly (almost weekly). Its interface is quirky but thorough reading of the manual and some of the related links is worthwhile.
It has been a great investment for me in scanning old slides on an older scanner,
It has a rich feature set. You can multiscan and alter exposures

Oracle Third Party Backup tools

What are some third party backup programs that people are using with oracle these days? Also when using third party backup tools, do these tools shutdown the database while backing up? Does the Archive Log mode need to be enable as well? Not big on Oracle so simple answers would work.
thanks.

I wouls suggest to go with RMAN. it's best tool and free.....Best third party backup tool is BMC SQL Backtrack.

MICROSOFT OPERATING SYSTEMS: 32bit vs 64bit & THIRD PARTY HARDWARE / SOFTWARE

As WINDOWS 7 is the newest, and latest O. S. product from good ole Microsoft, in upcoming weeks and months, lots of people; professional Techs, and regular Users are going to be faced with thousands upon thousands of new obstacles and miscues. Purchasing the 32bit version of WINDOWS 7---or a combo pack of 32/64---is currently the easiest and safest way to go! Still few manufacturers offer their Hardware with Software support for 64bit. Of course, most likely this will be the next wave of the future, but for now, most PCs are operating 32bit Motherboards, components and such.
Performing a CLEAN INSTALL vs an UPGRADE is a matter of decisive choice. Though, if you've been having problems with your current Operating System and PC, then chances are, an UPGRADE type of Install is not going to fix your problems. Of course, a CLEAN INSTALL guarantees you will most likely lose previous info and data, but if you back that data up onto a separate Hard Drive, you will be able to retrieve it later (if you don't have two or more Hard Drives installed in your PC, then a stand-a-lone USB type of Hard Drive can be purchased for under a Hundred dollars ($100).
With most of the 32bit Microsoft Windows Operating Systems, technically knowledgeable advanced Users, or Techs while paying exclusive attention during an Install, can direct the Operating System Setup to install without overwriting existing data, however this procedure and process requires a lucid working awareness and understanding on manipulation and navigation of existing Hard Drives.

You don't want those page outs and swap files.
1GB is really meaning that just running web browser, email and something else you will page.
Paging is slower than RAM
Laptops have slower hard drives for the most part still compared to desktops.
I would say 2GB will make a difference even for casual use. Safari alone has been known to use 600MB and up quite easily. Throw in Office, Logic, CS4 and you have a real problem and need that 4GB and up.
64-bit is more about the plumbing and address pointers, registers and can actually take more work to move things around. Your programs would need to be such that they benefit, and that each application or process can benefit from 4GB or more - each. And more than 4GB RAM.
Technical, but the best review of what Snow Leopard can mean for developers and the future of Mac.

The open/save dialogue has been in need of more views for a long long time, and that alone is worth the cost of Default Folder was; Finder has been in need of a rewrite for four yrs finally got it; send windows to its own application in the Dock and not left orphaned on the side and lost.
Multi-core isn't a big issue with dual-core but it has been and would have gotten much worse in the future without SL's Grand Central and other improvements. Moving to new compilers and with the help of Intel to better use new chips and hyper-threading.
Windows 7 runs smoother and faster and showed a lot over Vista and why those that used both won't go back. That is what I would expect to see from 10.6 eventually. There were problems where 10.5.x would get lost, not respond, the mouse would move but no interaction with the system itself, like a run-away train.
