What is the best practice to migrate files from one profile to another?

I am increasing having to move from one created local profile machine to an active directory joined mobile account.  What is the best way to migrate the files from one profile to another?

Some answers below:
1. Yes, you should use snapshots (right click on t he object and select create snapshot or on the project menu, select Change Manager for a centralized snapshot management).
2. See above.
3. Usually you will export the (test/development) design repository to an mdl file, and import it into the other (production) design directory. Then you will deploy the code from the other design directory into the production target (runtime).
2.1 From 9.2 on, you will have to deploy to file and then use OWB scripting (OMBPlus) to deploy the generated file outside of the deployment manager.
2.2 Not sure what is asked in this question - can you rephrase?
2.3 No, but the creation and use of thes will not be managed and audited by OWB (Runtime Audit Browser)
3.(bis) The target owner.

  • What is the best practice to migrate code from dev  to prod

    I have few questions related OWB version control/migration.
    1. What is the best way to Version the design repository
    We want to keep a separate copy of production and test version all the time.
    Do we have to create design repository in each environment ?
    2. Is it possible to have multiple copies of the same mapping ? If yes how this is done in OWB
    3. How to migrate the code to different environments
    2.1 Is there a way to provide DBA with script for deploying PL/SQL mapping without using OWB ?
    2.2 How important is the setting before actual code in the XML file is required to execute the mapping.
    2.3 We are planning to create tables , materialized view etc., outside OWB will this cause any problems ?
    Note : Our DBA prepare compiling the code through SQLPLUS
    3. Which user ( target owner or runtime access ) should be used to execute the mapping through sqlplus.
    We are looking for a solution were we do not have to use OWB tools for version control , migration and deployment. Currently we are using PVCS for version control and migration.
    we are using OWB 9.2 , Oracle 9.2.
    Any suggestion/ comments are appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • What is the best way to move data from one array to another

    I'm going to be moving data from one array to a larger array on the same RAID but different controller. (I have some extra extra drives I'm also going to be installing Retrospect so I can't just restore from a backup.)
    The RAID has 450GB of production files, fonts etc.
    What is the best way to move the data over?
    I saw that someone had suggested using ditto. Would that be better than MacMV?
    I also own Bru LE so I could use that.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Ditto is a great option -- probably the best.
    ditto -rsrc src_folder /Volumes/targetvolume/targetfolder

  • What is the best way to append data from one field to another?

    I have the following table, table1:
    Name Null? Type
    MAIL_ID NOT NULL NUMBER(10)
    LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(45)
    FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(45)
    MIDDLE_INITIAL VARCHAR2(1)
    ADDRESS_1 VARCHAR2(45)
    CITY VARCHAR2(35)
    STATE VARCHAR2(2)
    ZIP VARCHAR2(10)
    REMARKS VARCHAR2(200)
    The table has duplicate entries that need to be removed. The records that will be removed need the
    data in the Remarks column appended to the Remarks data of the record that is not deleted.
    For example, the following listing shows a sample of the duplicate records.
    Mail ID Last Name First Name M Address City St ZIP Remarks
    189 BROWN STEPHEN 6706 MOESER LN EL CERRITO CA 94530-2909 Sf7#s124,f16#d7996(NML)[Cl#117][Ml#1649][NMf1#d288][NCf9#d319][SNl#e62]

    287796 BROWN STEPHEN B 6706 MOESER LN EL CERRITO CA 94530 SNl#e1163
    The following listing shows how the kept record should appear after the duplicate records are deleted.
    Mail ID Last Name First Name M Address City St ZIP Remarks
    189 BROWN STEPHEN 6706 MOESER LN EL CERRITO CA 94530-2909 Sf7#s124,f16#d7996(NML)[Cl#117][Ml#1649][NMf1#d288][NCf9#d319][SNl#e62]RLl#a12047[IDl#i398]SNl#e1163
    I have the process of deleting duplicates working but have yet to determine the best way to move
    the Remarks data from the deleted records to the preserved record.
    I know there are probably various ways to approach this.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
    Here is the sql for deleting duplicates.
    DELETE FROM table1
    WHERE mail_id in (SELECT mail_id FROM table1
              where not first_name = 'Null' and
    not last_name = 'Null' and
              not city = 'Null' and
              not state = 'Null'and
    not last_name = 'Anon'
              minus
              select min(mail_id) from table1
              group by first_name, last_name, city, state, address_1, organization, title);
    THANKS in advance!!!!

    Here's quick and dirty example probably a better way to do it, but this is what I came up with quickly.
    My table looks like this:
    MAIL_ID LAST FIRST PHONE REMARKS
    123 Ruff Shawn 555-555-5555 Called 10-10-04
    135 Ruff Shawn 555-555-5555 Called 10-12-04
    201 Ruff Shawn 555-555-5555 Called 10-19-04
    The code below will concatenate the remarks column from the rows, and delete the 135 and 201 rows, then update the 123 row with the concatenated remarks.
    declare
    l_remarks varchar2(500);
    l_min_mail_id number;
    begin
    select min(mail_id) into l_min_mail_id
    from test
    group by last, first, phone;
    select remarks into l_remarks from test where mail_id = l_min_mail_id;
    for i in (select mail_id, remarks from test
         where last = 'Ruff'
              and first = 'Shawn'
              and phone = '555-555-5555'
              and mail_id <> l_min_mail_id)
    loop
    l_remarks := l_remarks||','||i.remarks;
    delete from test where mail_id = i.mail_id;
    end loop;
    update test set remarks = l_remarks where mail_id = l_min_mail_id;
    commit;
    end;
    Hope this helps.

  • What are the best practices to migrate VPN users for Inter forest mgration?

    What are the best practices to migrate VPN users for Inter forest mgration?

    It depends on a various factors. There is no "generic" solution or best practice recommendation. Which migration tool are you planning to use?
    Quest (QMM) has a VPN migration solution/tool.
    ADMT - you can develop your own service based solution if required. I believe it was mentioned in my blog post.

  • What are the diffrent ways to copy data from one application to another?

    Hi,
    Can you guys tell me what are the different ways to copy data from one application to another application??
    I know we can do it through script logic using DESTINATION_APP.
    Is there any other way to copy data from one application to another application?
    Please help me
    Thanks,
    Charly

    You can also call a custom DTSX package in SSIS via the datamanager.
    there are at least 5 ways of transfering data in BPC between apps.
    1. Through the front end (excel etc) via evdre/evsnds
    2. Through Script logic using *Dest App
    3. Using BPC's standard export dtsx package via DM
    4. Using SSIS using BPC's custom SSIS tasks
    5. Through Script logic using stored procs.
    i am sure people will come up with more.
    remember if you use ssis and move data into any table but the wb, you need to process the cube afterwards.

  • What is the best way to migrate zoning from an MDS9216i to a Nexus 5596?

    I am migrating from a MDS9216i to a Nexus 5596.  We have dual paths, so I can migrate one leg at a time and the full function for these switches is fiber channel attached storage.
    What is the best way to migrate the zoning information? I have been told I can ISL the new and old switch together and then push the zoning to the new switch.  Is that better than just cutting and pasting the zoning information to the new switch?
    Also, I have to move four Brocade M4424 switches to the new switches - they are currently attached via interop mode 1, but will now be attached using NPIV.  Has anyone done this before, and did you have any issues?
    Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Use an ethernet cable to connect the two computers, and set up file sharing. After that copying files from one computer to the other is exactly like copying from one hard drive to another:

  • What's the best practice to upgrade 3GS from 3.1.2 to 4.2.1

    I was reading the thread which was very helpful:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2665989
    But there is a slight difference here with my situation:
    -- I'm planning to upgrade from 3.1.2 to 4.2.1, yet in that thread the guy was trying to upgrade from 4.1
    And recently a friend told me he had an error 1013 during upgrade. Google also mentioned another error code, 1015, related to upgrading to 4.2.1
    1. Does anyone know what exactly caused Error 1013 and 1015?
    2. what is the best practice to upgrade from 3.1.2? Upgrading to 4.1 first and then upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2.1? Will that eliminate the occurring of these itunes errors?
    *(Yes, I know apple has officially terminated supporting upgrading an iphone firmware to anything below 4.3. But can we just discuss my questions hypothetically?)*
    Thanks people.

  • What's the best way to move files from my old G3 to my new Intel DuoCore?

    I just received my new Intel DuoCore 17" iMac. For years I have been using a much-loved G3 500 mHz iMac. The new Intel iMac is still in the box, but I believe it shipped with OS 10.4.4. The G3 runs 10.2.6. I have a dial-up connection to the Internet; currently DSL is not available in my neighborhood. What is the best way to move my files from the G3 to the Intel dc? Can I simply connect them with an Ethernet cable and transfer files directly? Or is my best bet to simply save the files I want to transfer to a disc and do it the old-fashioned way? Please forgive me in advance for my ignorance; although I have been a Mac user and supporter for many years, I am astonishingly ignorant when it comes to the best way to using both Mac hardward and software.
    iMac Intel DuoCore   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    There are two issues - 1. Getting the files moved over, and 2. Being able to open them on the Intel iMac.
    1. This can be technically easy if you are willing to spend the time. I moved all my stuff from my old Mac to my new one by hooking the two together with an ethernet cable, directly. You would need both machines to have appropriate IP addresses. (go to the network preferences and pull down the built-in ethernet panel.) Some addresses such as 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.101 would work with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0) Now go to the new iMac and make sure the finder is selected (click on the desktop) and under the "GO" menu select "Connect to Server". You will need to put in the IP address of the old machine, and later it's administrative password. Then select its hard drive from the list (possibly only one choice) and it should appear as an icon on your iMac desktop. You can open this like any other drive and just drag items to the new iMac.
    2. Whether you can use all the files moved over from the old G3 is difficult to answer. You may be using Classic mode sometimes on the G3 and have some stuff created with a Classic application. You are probably aware that the new Intel iMac does not support Classic mode, so some of these files may not be useable without a bit of work (or at all, perhaps.) For instance I had to purchase Appleworks to handle some of my old Clarisworks documents because Pages couldn't understand them. Once I had them converted to Appleworks documents, I could then convert them again to Pages documents.
    I had some old MacDraw Pro documents that were equally problematic.
    I would advise you to get the new iMac out of the box and connected to your dialup internet connection first. Do all the software updates until running software updater says there is nothing new. Then you will be at 10.4.7 with all the latest security and fixes etc. Then disconnect from the internet and use an ethernet cable to get the stuff off the old computer.
    There will be lots more to do such as moving your mail, address box entries etc. later, but this is a start.

  • What's the best way to transfer files from dead MDD G4 PowerMac to new iMac desktop?

    My Mirrored Drive Door 1 ghz G4 Power Mac recently stopped powering on. I have just purchased a new iMac with 2.5 ghz intel core i5. What is the best way for me to transfer the files to the new machine?
    Someone on another thread recommended buying a converter cable like this one: http://www.newertech.com/products/usb2_adaptv2.php
    Will I need to use transfer software too? I'd like to bring my playlists along to the new machine but don't need any of the software.
    Thanks!

    That will work. You could also remove the hard drive from the MDD and put it in an external enclosure so you would have it for backup.
    You can use the utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, to transfer files - MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • What's the best way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my 2014 MBP?

    What’s a good way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my MBP?
    I prefer to do graphic work on my 21-inch iMac (2012 version). But when I travel I need to copy files to my 2014 MBP. I learned that my 2012 iMac is too old for use of AirDrop, so I’m copying and moving files with a flash drive. That seems slow and clumsy. Is there a better way?

    Target Disk Mode would provide a direct connection between the two Macs:

  • What is the best way to get PATHS from one Photoshop psd file to another?

    Hi! New on the site, and I signed up specifically to ask the best way to import one .psd file into another, including the paths on the paths palette.
    Almost all of my Photoshop drawings make heavy use of vector paths, which I then stroke using using PS natural-media brushes and the "stroke paths" function (usually with "simulate pressure" checked.) Also, my .psd files tend to be, um, HUGE... and I typically break up a whole drawing into separate PS files and then assemble all of them into one final finished graphic.
    I have no trouble moving raster stuff from file to file. Just put all the layers I want to transfer into a group and drag the group to the other .psd. Works fine, including layer masks. But I have not found a good way to get vector paths from the Paths palette of one .psd to another. Of course I can select paths and copy them to the Win clipboard, switch to the other .psd, and paste them back in. The drawback to that method is that I lose the correct size relation between the results of previously done "stroke paths" operations (on raster layers) and the paths that generated them. Sometimes the copied-in paths are way too large, sometimes way too small, never Just Right.
    As I'm sure most of you know, if you resize an entire Photoshop document from within PS, any paths it contains are correctly resized along with everything else. That's no longer true after grouped raster layers are dragged over to another document but paths are copied and pasted in. The size connection is lost. (Location placement, too.)
    I WANT those paths! After I bring a piece of a drawing into the full final drawing, what looked good when I was working on it separately often doesn't look right any longer and I want to re-stroke those paths using different brush diameter, opacity, etc., or maybe even a completely different brush.
    I've tried bring outside .psd files in as smart objects with the Place command but either that doesn't work or I'm not doing it right. Using Place, the paths in the Placed document don't come in at all.
    I'll be very grateful for any hints or strategies any of you knowledgeable folks can give me. Thanks very much!

    1. Connect the two macs - firewire, ethernet, sneakernet as suits you - and copy the iPhoto Library Folder from Old Machine to New Machine. Drag it from Home/Pictures to the same location on the new machine.
    2. Because all the files 'belong' to the account on the old machine, you have to update the file permissions: hence Download BatchMod from
    http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
    And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:
    http://homepage.mac.com/toad.hall/.Pictures/Forum/BatChmod.png
    (Credit to Old Toad for this one).
    Note: This must be run on the new machine after copying the files over.
    3. Then launch iPhoto on the new machine.

  • What is the best way to transfer files from Windows XP to a new MacBook Pro?

    I am about to make the switch from PC to Mac, but I am not completely sure how I should transfer all of my old files (Word docs, PowerPoints, Excel Sheets, pictures, etc.) over to the new Mac. I read this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796, and it said to download Windows Migration Assistant. It says that a new user account will be created on the Mac containing all of the transferred material. I assume that I can just pull stuff from the newly created account and put it on the main or administrative account? Also, I assume that I can delete the created account after I get everything that I want off of it, but I am new to the whole Mac thing and assuming never gets anyone anywhere. One more thing, I do not want to transfer over my email accounts from Outlook because there is some kind of problem with the way they are set up. I want to just start them completely over in Mail. The article says that the program will automatically transfer over email accounts. Is there a way to avoid that or just transfer stuff manually? If anyone has transferred files this way before, I would really appreciate any insight you can give me. Thanks!

    Best way would be NOT to use any sort of migration program, just copy the files over and place them in the same Music, Pictures, Documents folders on the Mac like it is on Windows.
    All you need a external USB drive you can pick up at any office or computer store, I would advise powered and either the same size or larger (not too big) than your boot drive on the Mac. So later you can make a clone of OS X, as there is NO system restore on a Mac.
    Most drives are formatted MBR with a FAT32 (named "MSDOS" in Apple's Disk Utility) and can be read on a Mac just as easily.
    If for some reason your external drive has been already formatted by Windows into NTFS format, then a Mac can't read it without paying for more software and having to hassle with updates, it not working etc. So format the external drive FAT (FAT32) or even exFAT on the PC first (exFAT needs a free download from Microsoft on XP machines)
    When you connect the drive, simply drag and drop your files right into the same folders, this way you can control what comes over and what stays.
    If you want a free program that can open your Office files without having to pay for OfficeMac, then the free LibreOffice is available and works great.

  • What is the best way to migrate mail from OSX 10.4.11 (Tiger) to OSX 10.7 (Lion)

    Greetings,
    Does anyone have experience migrating mail boxes from OSX 10.4 to OSX 10.7?
    I have an old 1.5 Ghz PowerPC G4 laptop with a lot of email (about 8 years worth). I just purchased a new Mac Mini with OSX 10.7 Lion and I'd like to migrate 2 groups of files, mail and photos. I figure the mail might be the most difficult, hence this request for information.
    I have read where you can run a migration assistant for OS 10.5 and 10.6 to OSX 10.7 but there are only a few articles about the earlier OS.
    Also, I would like to migrate ONLY the mail box into an existing user account. I would rather not migrate older files and applications that I have on the older PC.
    Can anyone point me to articles about doing this?
    Thank you,
    Tim Kern

    Hi Linc,
    Thank you for yout suggestion.
    Export the import makes sense. Do you know of any "How to..." articles for exporting from Tiger?
    Thanks again,
