Using OEM for file management

Is anyone using OEM to manage files on their clients?
We currently have a bunch of scripts that distribute certain files to certain systems based on system criteria, such as OS version, system "usage" (ie oracle DB, backup server) etc.
I was looking @ OEM Deployment Procedures as something that might help with this. I didn't see a premade "file distribution" procedure, though, so I would probably have to write my own somehow.
I'm also open to using Ops Center or some other plugin that might be more suited to this task.

I am going to assume that you are using EM 12c. Let me know if this is not true.
Deployment procedures (DP) is the ideal solution for this. There is no out of box DP for file transfer because it is extremely easy to create one. You have two options:
1. transfer files from one server to another (using the file transfer step in DP)
2. upload files to EM software library and then transfer them to different hosts (using the component and directive step in DP)

  • Should a graphic designer use Iphoto for file management ?

    I am a designer who is overwhelmed by too many images from different sources (scan, online, art, photos) that need to be organized by themes (animals, flowers, calligraphy, projects, etc) so I tried transferring all my ps and tif and jpg files into iphoto (hoping to avoid using bridge, which I don't like).
    I noticed after I drug some them into iphoto, I reopened them in PS (drug file to the PS software Logo in dock), all the layers were had been flattened and the file went from 600 dpi to 72! EEEEK!
    I am a graphic designer and need large files with layers. Is iphoto a bad way to organize images? The orginal reason I like iphoto is because you can just drag out a file, and the original remains. In bridge, the original actually MOVES OUT.
    (I posted this in the wrong forum before, so this is a repeat posting)

    kidquotes:
    I would seriously look into a more robust DAM (digital asset management) application. The one that I use is Media Expression. It allows you to manage your folder system, move image files between folders from within the application, rename files, add metadata and write them to the files so they travel with them.
    Go go The DAM Forum where professional photographers discuss the various DAM applications and their relative merits, etc. Expression Media was originally iView MediaPro and, at the time, was consdered one of the very best. EM was bought by Microsoft (ugh) but has evolved into am improved product but is more expensive.
    As far as the dpi the resolution didn't change. iPhoto displays all at 72 dpi but if you were to look at the file in Photoshop it's print size would be nearly 9 times larger. It's all relative. SeeThe Myth of DPI.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Using OEM Console to Manage OAI Infrastructure

    For those of you who have not tried to use OEM Console to manage the OAI components, I'd recommend it. It saves having look for the latest log files, and the Tracking Fields functionality is excellent.
    However, my question is "what about adapters that are not placed on the Hub server, but on the target application server instead. Can OEM Console manage those too?"
    My suspicion is that it can't, but can anyone confirm this?
    Cheers
    Ian

    Rupesh,
    Try a search on Metalink for "vdrRegistry.VdruLoader" (without quotes).
    I think your problem is that your CLASSPATH should include $ORACLE_HOME\jlib (where the file oembase-9_0_2.jar resides). This jar file contains VdruLoader.
    Also check your oemctl.bat file. This is found in $ORACLE_HOME/bin.
    I've known Universal Installer (especially when installing OAI 4.1 on a Windows machine) to add extra slashes to the paths. e.g.
    SET JLIBROOT=D:\\oracle\\ora9ias\\jlib
    should be SET JLIBROOT=D:\oracle\ora9ias\jlib
    Hope this helps.

  • How to set a root directory for file management in web application

    Is it possible to set a default root directory for file management for a web application ?
    We would upload some files and store them in the web server.
    When we write the uploaded files without any path, the files are written in the config directory into the jdeveloper embedded oc4j directory.
    When we write the uploaded with a relative path ("/somedir/filename"), the files are written in C:/somedir/filename.
    We would like that all file management with relative path into the web application refer automatically to a given root directory (for example defined in web.xml).
    Is it possible ?

    I'm using the standard upload in adf faces.
    The problem is not during upload. This is managed in a temporay directory defined in web.xml. The problem is for writing the file that was uploaded (upload give us an inputStream we have to write somewhere, eventually after unzipping).
    Here is an example of our current code.
    if (mimeType.equals("application/x-zip-compressed") |
    mimeType.equals("application/zip")) {
    File destZipFile =
    new File(rootDirectory + "/" + parametersDirectory +
    "/" + uploadedFile.getFilename());
    BufferedInputStream isZipFile =
    new BufferedInputStream(uploadedFile.getInputStream());
    FileOutputStream fosZipFile =
    new FileOutputStream(destZipFile);
    BufferedOutputStream bosZipFile =
    new BufferedOutputStream(fosZipFile, BUFFER);
    // read and write until last byte is encountered
    while ((currentByte = isZipFile.read(data, 0, BUFFER)) !=
    -1) {
    bosZipFile.write(data, 0, currentByte);
    }

  • Using OEM for Database Detection

    Hi. I'd like to monitor my database using OEM without any 3rd party S/W. Has anyone done this? If so, can you share some of the techniques how exactly to do it.

    Hi
    You can use OEM(Oracle Enterprise Manager) for monitor your database

  • Anyone using OEM for scheduling backups?

    I'd like to see a poll for the number of users using OEM for taking database backups. Had some interesting conversations with some colleagues via social media and it seems like some DBAs don't trust OEM for their backups even though the feature works IMO.
    Are you using OEM to do backups?
    Edited by: DBA on May 3, 2012 1:02 PM

    I have 91 scheduled recurring backup jobs running through OEM 12c BP1. They work quite well. I've only noticed a few problems and nitpicks:
    1) Occasionally, for unknown reasons, a backup job against a newly-added database target will fail stating that the backup cannot be run since the database is closed. The database is not closed, it's up and running fine. Changing the backup job to run using SYS as SYSDBA credentials resolves this problem.
    2) Identification of failed backups is not as customizable as I would like. For example, if I have a full "backup database plus archivelog" running, and during the course of that backup an archivelog backup runs and deletes archived logs, OEM will report that the backup job has failed since RMAN throws an error about not being able to backup an archivelog it expected to find. I dealt with this by adding SKIP INACCESSIBLE to the backup statement. I'm not totally comfortable about that but I monitor for offline datafiles so I consider this only a minimal risk. Our custom backup scripts used to catch this warning and ignore it.
    3) It's really annoying that, after creating a backup job through the target Availability -> Schedule Backup tool, I cannot then run a 'Create Like' against that backup job to create a nearly identical one against a different database target. You have to schedule each of them from the Schedule Backup tool. Clicky clicky clicky clicky.
    4) A backup job created through the 'Schedule Backup' tool has a job type of 'Database Backup', therefore when the job fails a high-availability incident is created, so you can configure incident rules to receive notification of this event. This is good. Unfortunately a backup job created from the Jobs page has a job type of 'RMAN Script' does NOT create an incident on job failure out of the box. I've had difficulty configuring incident rules to catch failures for RMAN Script job types. This is not good.
    5) The repeating schedule options for jobs are limited compared even to something like cron. I can schedule a job for a day of the week, or a day of the month, but cannot easily schedule a job for "the first Tuesday of each month". This can be worked around.
    6) After creating and submitting a backup job through the Schedule Backup tool, you cannot edit the RMAN script without recreating the job. You can only edit the RMAN script before submitting the job. I deal with this by having my backups run stored scripts in the recovery catalog, and make the changes there if I need to change something.
    7) It is very annoying that if I 'stop' a repeating job (instead of suspend), there is no way to resume that job. It has to be recreated. This is my own user error -- I just don't click the stop button. Not OEM's fault but I'd rather not even have that button.
    8) No ability to sequence jobs. You can sequence steps within a job, but then the entire job succeeds or fails as a unit. If you want to back up database A then immediately back up database B afterwards, you have to create a multi-task job. The multi-task job has the same problem as item #4 above such that it does not create a "backup failed" incident when the backup fails.
    Even with all of these gripes, I am quite pleased with the backups I have running through OEM.

  • Anyone use MediaMonkey for file transfers with their Zen (Xtra)? For changing bitrat

    I'm looking for some software that will reduce the bitrates of my songs as they are transferred from my Vista computer to my Zen Xtra, i.e., I store my music files on my computer in WMA lossless format, and I want them copied onto my device at 28kb
    ps.
    MediaMonkey looks like it will do this. Does Windows Media Player?
    Are there other MP3 File Management programs that do this?

    Hiya all,
    Just to let you know, that this has happened again, 2nd time within 4 months of owning it, I cannot add or remove data from the data partition, I can listen to the MP3's fine, but can't do jack with the data partition, does anyone know of anything that can resolve this since the last time I reported the problem? I've double checked that I've got the most up todate firmware and software. It's a bit pants if you can't use the Zen Xtra for what it's designed for!

  • Anyone using FCP's file manager to remotely share files, anyone using FCP's file manager to remotely share files?

    Hi:
    I am looking to build a solution for a prospective client.  I want to use FCP server's file manager to allow remote users to access and obtain content.  This arrangement is actually for healthcare solution. I know FCP is used to manage and transfer files, but I am not sure what controls, access, etc are available to make assurances these files are not manipulated.

    I've been using FCP for a long time and I do not know of "file manager" tool. Are you looking for an evaluation of FCP Server? That's a different forum, not many users of that app here.

  • How to disable CD-DRIVE checking, while using a Dolphin file manager

    Hello.
    I  would like ask for a help. I have one problem that's quite annoying. It is related to checking cd-drive when using a dolphin file menager. It always cheecks it when Dolphin is launched from K or launcher on taskbar for the first time, again it happens when i close it and open again.
    Is there a way to disable checking of cd-drive in Dolphin? This behaviour occurs on KDE with all linux system that i checked: Slackware, Arch, Kubuntu. Look at this:
    Disabling CD-DRIVE checking, while using a file manager
    I would like to disable it in order to speed up opening Dolphin, launching it.

    Udisks2 is what dolphin uses to handle external drives of all kinds (USB, optical, etc).  Udisks is an automounting tool that allows normal users to mount disks.  The permission handling before was handled with consolekit and has now been replaced by systemd-logind (which is much better anyway).  So what I am suggesting is that it might be that dolphin is using udisks2 as the tool that polls for the existence of a disc in your optical drive.
    Unfortunately, it is a bit more confusing than that because udisks2 is the replacement for the original udisks.  It is totally different and not compatible.  So I remember seeing a way to turn off optical drive polling, but I cannot remember if it was udisks or udisks2.  But it was done with a udev rule. 
    So I think if you tried to google for "udisks optical (or cd or dvd) polling" or something like that, you might be able to figure out how this is done.
    Edit: unfortunately, I do not use dolphin or udisks2.  But I do have the original udisks installed.
    Edit2: It seems that the method I remembered is for the original udisks.

  • How do I use VPN for file sharing?

    Hi folks, hope you can help.
    I need to find a method for file sharing between my company's two offices, which are not only in different countries but also use both PCs and Macs. I think setting up a VPN is the way forward.
    My file server is a Mac Mini running the standard client version of OS 10.5.4, with a static IP, 217.xxx.xxx.xxx. I need the PCs and Macs to access its resources. It is set up to share its files using FTP, AFP and SMB. It is running the application iVPN Server, which I understand is a GUI that makes the built-in OS X VPN Server function available to the client edition of OS X.
    I am currently overseas and can connect to the Mac Mini over VPN. The problem is that I cannot seem to access the Mac Mini's files - I don't know what to do having established the VPN connection. I was half-expecting it to show up in the Finder under Shared or something.
    The Mac Mini has a local IP of 10.0.1.20, but the VPN Server is issuing an IP to all clients in the range 192.168.2.200 and beyond. Is this where I'm going wrong?
    Should the Mac Mini VPN Server also connect to itself, using VPN, as a client?
    I'm really stuck, all help is very much appreciated. Thank you!

    Thanks for prompt reply Topher..
    I am familiar with the Connect to Server window, but I am not sure which IP I should be using. Assuming no VPN connection for the moment, and assuming I'm on a remote network, I can connect to the User's documents folder on the Mac Mini already by typing afp://[username:password]@[static WAN ip]/Documents
    However, I need to ensure that SMB shares work (I know they work when I'm on the local network). So I type smb://[username:password]@[static WAN ip]/Documents but this fails to connect to the User's Documents folder.
    To make the SMB shares work I think I have to connect using VPN. So I connect to the Mac Mini via VPN, and my laptop is issued a VPN IP of 192.168.2.200. Of course my laptop also has an IP from my local network. Do I need to rearrange my network order in System Preferences?
    So I'm now connected via VPN. However to view the Mac Mini's files, surely it also needs to have an IP issued by the VPN Server? But the Mac Mini is the VPN server. So should I go into its System Preferences and set up a VPN connection to itself?
    Now back on the laptop and I want to browse User's Documents folder on the Mac Mini using SMB. I go Connect to Server, and I guess I would type smb://[username:password]@[Mac Mini's VPN IP]/Documents
    Am I on the right track? Thanks again...

  • Use Ethernet for file transfers to iMac?

    Hi -- In earlier Powerbook use I used to like using the "Target Disk Mode" to drag files from my laptop to my desktop machines, but of course my new MacBook has no firewire.
    is there anyway to connect my MacBook to my iMac using an ethernet cable, to drag sel;ect files from the portable to the desktop machine? I've got some multi-gig files I need to shuttle back and forth occasionally, so it's pretty tedious to chug along via wireless . . .
    Any other suggestions for most convenient means of shuttling big files?
    Thanks

    Yes, you can use Ethernet to transfer files via File Sharing. If you have a home network then you can share files over your home network whether it be wired or wireless. You can also create a computer-to-computer network by connecting two computers directly via Ethernet cable.
    Select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "file sharing." Search for "network" to find an article on computer-to-computer networks.

  • Using Failover for DB Manager Service Objects

    Michelin Tire Corporation
    At Michelin, we are trying to implement a failover

    Thanks in advance,
    Thomas SamsAt CSI, we have planned to use HACMP with Forte' failover to provide a
    high availability architecture for one of our customer.
    There are a lot of stuff to consider, some related to hacmp
    configuration, some to forte' mechanisms.
    In particular we should use HACMP for managing RDBMS backup and Forte'
    capabilities to deal with partitions/envs/nodemgrs failover. We have not
    take into account Oracle's parallel server at the moment ( althought it
    could be a good solution ) because we don't really need to access oracle
    from 2 different nodes at the same time, but "just" to have a "realtime"
    dbms backup in case of primary server fault.
    The architecure we choosen is based on tre AIX server ( 1 application
    server, 1 main dbms server, 1 backup server ( oracle failover, envs
    failover).
    We have started testing it using forte 2.0.h, but we realized that a
    more complete functionality will be offered using 3.0 KEEP_ALIVE
    features. So I could give you more feedback in the near future.
    What type of solution have you in mind ?

  • Using SPML for Identity Management in EJB WebService

    Dear All,
    I have a requirement af using SPML(Service Provisioning Markup Language) for Identity management. Identity management is used to manage the user like deleting a user, modifying, adding a user etc for a application.For that the request for all these functions need to be made using the SPML. The idea is that first the data used to make any request will come from the SAP R3 using an EJB which will retrieve that data by calling a BAPI via JCO and then it is needed to be passed to the entitlement system using the SPML.Thus I have to publish a web service which will get data by calling BAPI and give it to entitlement system using SPML and how can I achieve it?. I have less knowledge about SPML, your guidence will help.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Samir

    There is a document on the SAP Service Market Place that covers the SPML in the UME APIs. This quote is from the [UME documentation|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/5b/5d2706ebc04e4d98036f2e1dcfd47d/frameset.htm]:

  • Way to Use PS CS File Manager's Flag Attribute in Bridge?

    Greetings,
    I have LOTS of images I have flagged in the old File Browser, and I want to somehow move that "information" forward to Bridge? How can I do this, other than manually using the old File Browser to let me see which files are flagged and then "ranking" them in Bridge? Is there *any* way to automagically "move" the old "flag" to a new Rank?
    tnx
    paul

    Thanks, Arno. I cant seem to get this to work, here is what I do.
    I start with a "clean" directory of D70 .nefs. I run the File Browser in CS, flag 3 of the files, and export the cache (I get a successful confirmation in FB and the cache files are present).
    Now, I close CS, and run Bridge and point to this directory. Bridge runs to find all the files and generate previews (well, I guess Cam Raw does this!) but none of the flag'd files have a star assigned to them.
    Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?
    tnx
    paul
