Why keep Level 1 backups after Recover Copy of Database

I implemented the daily recover copy of database
BACKUP INCREMENTAL LEVEL 1 FOR RECOVER OF COPY
strategy.
I have a 30 day retention window and other compressed un-recovered backupsets running weekly
What I'm noticing is the level 1 backups, after they are used to recover forward my level 0 backup remain. How can I ever use them after I've rolled forward my level 0 image copies?
Is there any reason to keep them? Can they be used to recover a datafile from a separate compressed backupset?

These useless level 1 backups are kept due to your wrong way to define a retention policy for more than 1 day for incrementally updated backups.
Statement from documentation:
If you run RECOVER COPY daily without specifying an UNTIL TIME, then a continuously updated image copy cannot satisfy a recovery window of more than a day. The incrementally updated backup feature is an optimization for fast media recovery.
See the documentation how to define correctly the retention policy (advanced example):

Can't make offline backup after system copy

Hi to all!
After the system copy of Solution Manager 7.01 ehp 1 from Windows to RHEL Linux I can't make the offline backup. SolMan work normaly.
Online backup works normally too.
But I have no *.spi and *.spu files in the backup directory (like benziefn.spi). I tried to update brtools - it doesn't help. I run brtools under orasid user.
Thanks for help!

Why keep download Xcode update after update is done

Y once download the update app store shown installed but when i check again for any update, it show the same thing as xcode never being updated and show to update again. This is not the very first time that this thing happen when downloaded an update but never get install and will ask to download again.
What's wrong?

Or use Firefox. It is still being updated for Snow Leopard.

Calc Scripts run a lot faster after I copy existing database

Hi,
I have user being setup as the Application Designer of the application and each time when he run scripts of the database, it takes a lot longer than myself (I'm the Supervisor). The database was built up from scratch, so it is not database copy version. Could this be user specific problem?
Today, I create another copy of the database within the same application, create a new Scenario, load data, run multiple similar scripts and the time to run all scripts were alot faster when I run from initial database. Is this a coincidence or the performance has indeed improved?
Your advice is much appreciated!
Between, Im running on Essbase 7.1.3.0
Thank you

So are you saying you are the one to run the scripts after initial DB load?
What are the index and page size before and after you run the scirpts?
It is somewhat normal for the inital dataload and agg to run faster than subsequent runs of the agg, this is because typically inital data load is level 0 only members. The agg of the database will then create blocks for upper level members, thereby increasing the DB size. So there are more index entries, as well as blocks to parse thru.
That being said, if there is considerable increase in agg time, there may be more to address (fragmentation, block size, dynamic calc on sparse members, etc).

Info about recover copy option

Hello,
my commands are based on a dataguard configuration, but I think my question is a general one.
The manual describes a possible work flow like the one below about backup operations to be done every day (on physical standby):
1) RESYNC CATALOG FROM DB_UNIQUE_NAME ALL;
2) RECOVER COPY OF DATABASE WITH TAG 'OSS';
3) BACKUP DEVICE TYPE DISK INCREMENTAL LEVEL 1 FOR RECOVER OF COPY WITH TAG 'OSS' DATABASE;
4) BACKUP DEVICE TYPE DISK ARCHIVELOG ALL; (actually the manual says SBT as type of device, but I have not a tape available right now so I'm using disk also for this step)
5) BACKUP BACKUPSET ALL;
6) DELETE ARCHIVELOG ALL;
My question is about step 2).
Actually it will do something useful only starting at day 3 (first day no backup and 3) will do a level 0; second day only level 0 and no level 1 to consolidate)
What if the command fails in the middle? I will have the level 0 backup set compromised, because it seems to me that level 0 backup set is modified/consolidated in place, correct?
Step 5) should backup the level 0 on tape, so that I have it available there, but any option to automatically protect level 0 disk backup set to satisfy a faster recovery in case of need?
Or am I missing anything simple...?
Thanks in advance,
Gianluca

To illustrate that a scenario (Suse Linux 11, Oracle 10.2.0.5).
I interrupt a recovery session : not a recover of an image copy but a recover of the database.

Why does time machine make a second/different backup after new installing a hard drive?

Hi all,
Long time reader, first time poster...
after having to install a new hard drive on my MacBook Pro, the new Time Machine backups are not recognising the original/older backups on the external hard drive connected via network router and has created a new/second backup caller 'xxx Mac Book Pro 1' instead of updating/reading the orginal 'xxx Mac Book Pro backup'?
Does anyone know why it did this? and more importantly how do i make it recgonise the original and stop making the secondary copy?
Thanks!

Recovering my pictures from a backup after installing a new hard drive.

Hi,
My hard drive crashed, but fortunately I had recently backed up my pictures folder to an external HD.
But when I copied the pictures folder back into iPhoto on the new HD, not all the pictures were imported. I got a message saying some files couldn't be found, or some such.
And the ones that did import didn't have the date or the titles I'd written for them. My album structure didn't import either.
Can anyone please help me?
Thanks!

HI there, same thing happened to me, unstable updates, ho-hum. My issue was a little more complicated. I have been reading the discussions first to see if it may have been mentioned. I had a back up of my library, and reinstalled. all was ok till I remembered that I had a prior issue when I rebuilt the library a few months ago that I had a folder with over 5000 photos that said recovered. I really never quite figured out where they came from. in an earlier post of yours I read something about separate years in the library that that was outside the data folder. I never removed them as I was still trying to figure out where it came from and why.Sooo here I realized after I started I-Photo that I should not have imported all the photos as a tone were thumbnails etc..needless to say I ended up with 23000 photos instead of the 15,000 that I started with. I tried to rebuild but they were still there, and the I-Photo structure upon inspection was the same mess I had before. The rebuild prior to that where those extra 5000 pics came from started at 10,000. So How should I actually do it correctly. to fix the mess. I removed the entire I-Photo library again. So it will be fresh when I open and ask what I want to do. Of course I was working on a movie project, and realized that I was unknowingly using thoses thumbnails without realizing it. Boy did that movie stink, ha ha thanks in advance for anyones assistance. I will know the correct way of doing it once I see it I am sure, Ileen

HT202853 I have many project made in move HD that are not updating to the new iMovie 10 on my new iMac. Why is this not working as stated? How do I get my projects back from backup after old iMac crashed?

I have many projects made in imovie HD that are not updating to iMovie 10 on my new iMac. Why is this not working as stated on the article HT202853? How do I get my projects back from backup after old iMac crashed?

According to:
Update projects and events from previous versions of iMovie in iMovie (2014) - Apple Support
you can update from iMovie versions 7, 8 and 9, but iMovie HD is iMovie 6.
Maybe you can update in two steps, first from iMovie 6 to iMovie 7, 8 or 9 then to iMovie 10.

Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?

Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?

I had the same problem due to the Fire Wire port. Apple tested it told me it is OK!, I tried a new cable, and have tested both ports on my back up device. I find it strange that as soon as I installed Mavericks. The drive does work using USB. It could be a coincidence, I don't absolutely know at this point, my back up drive ports could stop working, but I doubt it!

Mozilla firefox start page keeps logging itself on after I close all internet windows I come back and there it is. Why??? Make it stop.

mozilla firefox start page keeps logging itself on after I close all internet windows I come back and there it is. Why??? Make it stop.

I've got the exact same issue! I'm pretty sure it just started today too. It's so bizarre because we've all been using Firefox 26.0 for at least a month, right? How could the ''about:home'' page all of a sudden cause this issue?
I've been able to replicate this issue on a virtual machine running Windows XP SP3, so clearly it has nothing to do with Windows 7.

Why jave export and import need to be performed after sys copy Dual stack

Dear All,
i have a question why do we have to perform JAVA export in the source and import in the target system
after system copy ( dual stack ). when whole database is copied. Thank you in advance.

Hi,
The reason for this is: because most of the Java configuration lies in the file system and not in the database. This is the reason you need to export Java and then import in system copy.
Thanks
Sunny
