Will RMAN backup all the needed files for me automatically ?

I have execued the following command:RMAN>CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 14 DAYS;
I want to know: Will RMAN backup all the needed files for me automatically every 14 days and delete the metadata of the files older than 14 days automatically?---------No.158

Short answer is No.
What's the definition of all needed files ? datafiles, control files, archive logs and/or online redo? and perhaps spfiles?
RMAN>CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 14 DAYS;This is RMAN configure command, it won't do any backup by itself. You need to issue backup command to backup files needed.
You also need to delete obsolete files. The files will become obsolete after 14days but they will not remove themselves automatically.

  • Migration to a new machine lost all the background files for iWeb site

    Help!
    I have just migrated to a new mac pro from my old G5 power mac. I use the migration tool to move all my stuff over to the new machine.
    When i started up iWeb and looked at my site, all the background items are gone. it tells me there are missing files. these are all the standard iWeb theme files.
    i don't even know where to start. where are these files supposed to be? can i transfer them over manually from the old mac to the new one?
    i really don't want to re assign themes for 100 or so pages.
    thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Manually copy the domain.sites2 file that's in your *+User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder+* on the G5 to the same location on your new Mac Pro, replacing the domain file that's there now due to the migration assistant. See if that will open with all files.

  • Missing all the library files for adobe encore cs5

    Ive had the suite up and running for a while... but i just the other day started to use encore... I wanted to make a menu but I didnt have any thing in the library. No files. I looked around... and couldnt really get a real answer
    How can i get them?

    I'm still a little confused, but that may be because you are having an odd problem.
    What I think is the case now is that you were in fact missing the library.  You added the library to your system, and you do now find the files and directories in the Adobe/...whatever.../Encore/ directories. (Are you on a Mac? For some reason I got that idea, and was unsure how that would affect this.)
    You do not say that you added these using the insturctions at:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408826.html
    and I do not know if the files are "registered" in any way. I believe they are not. If they are in the directories, then Encore will use them.
    You do not say that you checked and the location in Encore preferences points to the location where you put the files. The fact that you now see the categories (the folder names) while you are running Encore, however, suggests that it is pointed to the right place.
    BUT, when you click on one of those categories, none of the templates are there. It is as if you have the folders in the Encore library, but no files inside the folders (or the extensions are wrong).
    Do I have this right?

  • Premiere elements 4 will not accept all the MPG file

    I am trying to re-edit some old DVD files made in Premiere 4.
    It seemed to me that the only method of doing this would be to convert the VOBs originally created with Premiere Elements to MGPE2 files extension .mpg and then re-import them. There may be an easier way than this which would be better.
    However in my method of some files it premiere only converts 14minutes of the file to video and imports the rest (about 20) minutes as black.
    This has happened on several files.
    I know the video is there because I can play the .mpg on many players including MS. It would appear that Premiere gives up at some point.
    Can anyone give me advice please.

    What are you using to convert, and what are your EXACT settings?

  • My iTunes account says that it cannot locate the original file for all of my songs.  My iPhone still has all the music and is able to play the songs, if I sync and backup my iphone will the songs be replaced with the empty copies from my itunes library?

    So basically I tried to back up my itunes library to my external hard drive and when I followed the instructions and then went to play a song it said Orginal file cannot be found. It said that for all of the songs. I'm not sure how to fix what I did, I already tried consolidating and all of that stuff and it didn't locate the files.  I'm guessing that I somehow deleted the original songs along the way.  I synced my iPhone without knowing what I did and surprisingly all of the music is still on my phone.  So now that I've completely screwed up my iTunes account, I need to know how to get all my music back onto my iTunes account and have that library only on my external hard drive, not my computer. Everything looks fine on my iTunes besides the fact that it cannot locate the files but what I'm afraid of is me syncing and backing up my iPhone and then being left with no music because it syncs to the empty songs.  How can I fix this? and if I can't fix my iTunes library is there anyway for me to still be able to backup my iphone and all the music on it, without erasing my music?

    Well I'm not sure if I correctly backed up my itunes library because when trying to open itunes from that back up it keeps saying original file not found. Okay this is going to sound confusing but bear with me.  I "backed up" my itunes, meaning I just dragged and dropped the iTunes folder into my external hardrive, and then I changed the destination on iTunes to open from my external hardrive.  It was working fine when I did that, however I did that just on my own, I didn't know about consolidating the files or any of that so I hadn't done that before copying the folder to my external hard drive. I can't remember but I'm pretty sure I deleted the iTunes folder after I had copied it to my external hardrive. So I did that and it was working fine, I was able to open my itunes with my external hardrive.  BUT yesterday I thought that I hadn't done it correctly because I didn't consolidate the files and all that, so I wanted to be more thorough and do that, I followed the steps to do that but when I did that I think it got all the files from my computer and not from my external hard drive so it basically didn't find anything on my computer because I had deleted them. And like an idiot, I replaced the iTunes folder on my external hard drive (the one I did correctly the first time), with the one I did wrong. So I believe I pretty much deleted all the music files from both my external hard drive and my computer. Please correct me if I'm wrong?
    I believe getting all my music back on my itunes is a lost cause. BUT I still have all my songs and stuff on my iPhone. My question is, if I plug my phone into my computer and sync it, will it erase all my songs from my phone? A little more info, my iTunes still has the names and stuff of all my songs, they just can't be played because the files are missing, my iPhone doesn't need to erase and sync when I plug in my phone because it's already synced to my computer. What I'm afraid of is when I plug in my phone to backup and sync, will it erase my music because it can't find the files on my computer or external hard drive anymore? Or will it just leave the songs because they're already there (on my phone) and only sync the new songs that I've downloaded? I just need to know is my iTunes still going to be functional as far as me being able to backup my phone?
    I have a lot of songs purchased from iTunes but a lot (like 60%) are from CDs that I no longer have. So re-downloading my music would only account for 40% of my library.

  • If I delete a backup icon for an old iPhone on my iPad will it delete all the photos saved from that phone in my iCloud??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It won't affect any photos in photo stream but any photos within the back up itself will go.

    I have 2 iphones, one for personal and one for business.  I need my phones not to sync otherwise they will both ring all the time.  How can I log out of my icloud and unsync my phones?

    Syncing your phones to the same iCloud account won't cause them to both ring all the time, it only puts the same contacts, calendars, and other synced data on the phone.  The phones will only ring with someone calls the number associated with the phone.
    If you want to stop using iCloud on one or both of the phones, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then choose Keep On My iPhone when prompted.  This will disconnect them from iCloud and keep a copy of the synced data on the phone.

  • Where is the data file for the address book located, I need to restore mine from backup but don't know where it is.

    Where is the data file for the address book located, I need to restore mine from backup but don't know where it is to do so.  Putting my Mac Pro onto icloud synching contacts resulted in duplicate and triplicates of the same cards.  I have a few THOUSAND contacts and the last time this happened was on mobile me.  that had a function where you could replace info on the mobile me server with info on the computer.  I see no way to do that on the new cloud.

    You cannot partition a TC disk.
    See pondini about mixing data and backups.. but remember this.. the TC has no way to back itself up and TM cannot backup files on the TC. Anything not backed up on the TC will be lost at some future point.

    2. Press "Delete" and go to BIOS setup while computer bootup.
    Check BIOS advanced features and see if BIOS flash write control is enabled
    (This option must be enabled. If you can not find this setting, it means the BIOS can be
    flashed.)

    7. Press DELETE or F1 when prompted at first reboot after flashing.
    8. Load BIOS optimized defaults, then save settings and exits.
    Drivers & Needed Files:
    (Note: All these drivers are for Windows XP.)
    Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.40
    (Please use at your own risk, these are LEAKED drivers. Password for the .zip file is "ocworkbench rules". Also, you will need to rename the WinXP_2K folder in IDE to either WinXP or Win2K else the installer doesn't pick it up.) Thanks for the link Wonkanoby!
    *NEW* Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 5.03
    More leaked drivers? Seems some parts of the drivers are older and some are newer.
    1. Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Web Install) -or- Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Full Install)
    2. Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Web Install) -or- Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Full Install)
    3. Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.24
    4. AMD Athlon 64 Processor Driver Version 1.1.0.14
    5. Nvidia Video Card Driver Version 56.72 -or- Omega Nvidia Video Card Driver Version v1.5303
    (The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard Nvidia drivers.)
    5. ATI Video Card Driver Version 4.7 -or- Omega ATI Video Card Driver Version 2.5.51
    (The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard ATI drivers.)
    6. Onboard Sound Driver (Realtek AC'97 Audio Codec) Version A3.61
    It is HIGHLY reccomended that you install the drivers/needed files in the order listed above. Please note that there are two #5's because you either install one or the other depending on your video card, do not install both of them.
    You will come across a problem here though. You can't install the chipset drivers without installing the Windows service pack and DirectX first, but the Windows service pack and DirectX installs need the internet to download files and you won't have working internet until you install the chipset drivers. Here's what I did to get around this. Instead of downloading the web install versions of Windows service pack and DirectX, download the full version and and put them along with all the other drivers on a backup hard drive or burn them to a CD, this way you will have all the drivers you need when it's time to install them and none of them will require the internet to download files.
    Another note when installing drivers. Apparently the Nvidia chipset drivers also come with drivers for the onboard sound, but people seem to agree that the Realtek onboard sound drivers are better. When you are installing the Nvidia chipset drivers, just be sure to uncheck the box for sound drivers when it asks you which drivers you would like to install. Now you can safely install the Realtek drivers without any chance of conflicting sound drivers. Thanks for the tip Wonkanoby!

    The installer still reccomends to install it beforehand for full USB 2.0 functionality... I would have put what you said in there but I wanted to keep it as simple as possible.  
    oh.  IIRC the installer just says USB 2.0 will be fully functional after SP1 is installed.  So after you install SP1 you go into device manager and u click update driver and it will auto search and update the driver.
    Simplicity-wise, i guess its pretty much equal.  It might take less preparation to just copy DX9 full onto a CD and install that first, then nforce driver, then right away you have yoru internet connection.
    but i dunno.. i guess i will try it your way this time when my RMA"d board comes.
    i will be fomratting and doing a fresh install later on today and will let you know if i come across any problems

    Make a backup of your media and other important files.
    Just to be safe, make a backup of your entire iTunes directory.
    Restore computer or do whatever it is you need to do.
    Restore your media and other important documents.
    Install iTunes.
    Try using search next time... this gets asked way too frequently.

  • VS2010: Why does my C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include does not get all the needed header files?

    Hello,
    I have installed VS2010 Professional. I have done a full install. The I install the 2010 redistributable and 2010 SP1. So I think I have installed all the needed products. But my include files has only 3 files :(. anmintrin.h, srv.h, wmiatlprov.h. My colleagues
    who have installed the same three products have some 200 header files. My guess these header files are coming from some SDK or so. I have 5.0, 6.0A, 7.0A. 7.1A, 8.0, 8.0A SDKS installed. What am I missing? 
    Please check this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13656856/cant-get-visual-studio-c-include-file-excpt-h-to-get-installed and there the person tells to practically remove all and install all and another answer says just copy it. My hope is Microsoft
    might have a more logical and technical answer than doing something blindly without rhyme or reason
    A clear cut answer might help the community.
