What to backup on the Oracle side of the house from the Sys Admin

I'm being asked what specifically needs to be backed up on the Oracle side from the server guys... Right now we're running a all of our test instances in non-archivelog mode, so we're doing cold backups... other than the actual backup files, what else needs to be backed up.
Oracle 11gR1 on AIX

what else needs to be backed up.Why not backup everything on the server? It's much easier to do a full backup of all server volumes than it is to include some directories while excluding others. The moment you exclude something from your server backup will be the moment whatever was excluded is lost and you will wish you had that backed up.

DRDA is installed just on the Oracle side?

After reading this I still dont get it...
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/gateways.102/b16217/intro.htm#i3621
This documentation does not get to the point at all. It is not written at a level for people who have never installed a Transparent Gateway...
So, If I install the DRDA type Transparent Gateway I'm hoping I only have to put software on the Oracle side - my side? Not the DB2 side? I saw via someone else's post where during DRDA setup a package is created on DB2 side by issuing commands on the Oracle side?
If this is true, which I hope it is, why and what benefit is obtained by installing the other type of gateway Transparent Gateway for DB2 (TD4DB2) which requires installation of software on both sides - I think?
I would like to only have to install software on the Oracle side since the DB2 machine is not owned by us and all we will have is a user account on the DB2 side.
Give me few quick pointers please.. Thanks...

The DRDA Gateway software is only installed on the the Oracle server machine (or a 3rd machine).
There are several notes on Metalink "How to setup TG4DRDA" which explain in detail WHAT steps are required to configure the gateway.
Regarding the Bind package: at the Db2 database the 2PC table must be created and then use SQL*Plus to bind a package at the Db2 side.
This is mandatory for the DRDA gateway, but I want to make it clear again: NO software is installed on the DB2 machine.
So the difference between the TG4DB2/400 and TG4DRDA is the location of the software.
TG4DRDA is installed on Unix or Windows platforms, commonly in the Oracle database home whereas TG4DB2/400 is installed on the AS400 machine.

Dear Team ,
I have Changed the IP address of the Oracle SID I am using (ORACLE 10g) in Listener.ora and tnsnames.ora file .

Did you restart the listener after changing the ip address in listener.ora?
Also check /etc/hosts file...
If your server IP is changed then you need to make changes in listener.ora and tnsnames.ora only..

I have a Time Capsule on which I back up 2 MacBooks and on my wife's machine she keeps having Airport Utility popping up all the time with a yellow button flashing on the left and a Red button on the right side with a "1" in the middle of it.

I have a Time Capsule on which I back up 2 MacBooks and on my wife's machine she keeps having Airport Utility popping up all the time with a yellow button flashing on the left and a Red button on the right side with a "1" in the middle of it. Can any one tell me what is wrong. I read where when the yellow light was flashing there was a problem, but I am a novice at this and have no idea where to turn. It seems to be backing up on a regular basis.

On the Mac......
Open up Macintosh HD > Applicatons > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the small window that appears
Click the Network tab at the top of the next window
Change the setting for Router Mode from the current DHCP and NAT to read Off (Bridge Mode), then click Update at the lower right of the window, and wait a full minute for the Time Capsule to restart to a green light.
Then.....very important
Power off the Time Capsule and your Arris modem/router for a few minutes
Start up the Arris first, and let it run a few minutes by itself
Start up the Time Capsule next the same way
Your network will now be correct, and your printing capabilities will improve.
If Time Machine backups do not occur now, post back and we will tackle that next.

Backup with iTunes. If iTunes is asking you if you want to backup, say yes to that and it will backup your iPad. Have you ever synced with this computer before?
My boilerplate response for anyone that wants to update the iOS.
What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
However, iTunes should ask if you want to backup before you update, but just in case create the backup yourself before you update. The backup contains your app data and settings - along with other items - so make sure you backup first.
If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.

How do I transfer or backup tv shows I downloaded on my iPad from the iPad into my computer's iTunes library?

How do I transfer or backup tv shows I downloaded on my iPad from the iPad into my computer's iTunes library? I have a bunch of tv episodes on my iPad that I want to delete but first i want to back them up onto my computer so i have them. If I check "Sync TV Shows" in the iPad in TV shows it tells me all the shows on the iPad will be replaced by what is in my library. I tried going into iTunes store to redownload but it tells me they are "downloaded." Any thoughts?

What gotchas should we watch out for when porting code from the Adobe SDK to the Acrobat SDK?

I have found some evidence that the preprocessor variable PLUGIN seems to prevent macros from includes from being defined. The NPROC and SPROC constructs seem to be involved (partners in crime, if you will).

ps: Please see my related thread "What is the difference between xxProcs.h and xxCalls.h?"

Here's a gotcha that I bumped into:
extern "C" HINSTANCE gHINSTANCE;
I found it in a successfully developed code on the Windows/Plugin side. It is something that I had never used on the APDFL side AND my Windows linker is complaining about several gXXXX missing functions.
IOW: It sounds like the above statement is the solution to my linking problems. Somehow the APDFL seems to take care of the C vs. C++ details.

HT1461 For Boot Camp, if you save a file when you are on the Windows side, when you return to the Mac side, can you see the file or can it only be "seen" on the operating side you create it in?

For Boot Camp, if you save a file when you are on the Windows side, when you return to the Mac side, can you see the file or can it only be "seen" on the operating side you create it in?

Why don't you (generic most every post lacks critical details) be clear and say you never used Mac OS etc.
But, I did try to anticipate and give you what you needed.
Excel is one of those rare programs that, if they are extremely large complex spreadsheets still tend to run better under Office for Windows.
A VM won't do for that but it does make it easier to transition. As in: install Windows natively, then use VMware Fusion or Parallels to attach to the partition and OS. That way you can run Windows as Guest OS VM under Mac; and still run Windows natively dual-boot when needed.
The word "see" was not what you wanted, was it? really? you want to open and make changes and keep it on Windows side rather than Save As or copy to Mac
You use Windows and don't know it has NTFS (NT FileSystem)?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_File_System (HFS) native file system used by Apple
And there is much more UEFI style "bios" and other things I suppose.
Great thing about Google and encyclopedias or dictionary, you can look up what you don't know.

If it was replaced then you should be able to restore a back up of your phone

If you received a note it will tell you what they found and why they could not repair. It depends on the situation

Did you use the Migration Assistant to help set up the new iMac using some of the files in the older PC? Some likely won't mean much, unless you have applications that can use or convert them. There's also a way to use the software Time Machine to import data files from an external or another computer, so you may have used that, too.
Hopefully someone with experience in a similar issue will reply...
Good luck & happy computing!
