Can the sys admins save raw devices?

Platform: Solaris 5.10
DB versions: 11g

As raw devices are not from the OS to the format sys admins can save raw devices? If they cannot, then, this means that we completely rely on backups RMAN to our DBs CARS. Right?

Yes. They can use the command dd (disk image) backup - where If (input file) is the raw device and of (output file) is a tape drive or a backup device.

If they cannot, then, this means that we completely rely on backups RMAN to our DBs CARS. Right?

This should be the preference. Backup of a raw device using dd does not guarantee a database or the cluster that can be restored - as other processes are / can be write data, while dd is playing it to the backup. It doesn't have the same management and control functions and the flexibility of rman.

Do not use rman would be a mistake to IMO.

  • How to find the logic of a RAW device unit ID-number

    Hello

    I am trying to create a workflow that will give me information about a virtual machine:

    • RAM
    • CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT
    • Disk configuration
      • Size, SCSI Bus
      • ..

    My problem is to understand the LUN ID to a RAW device in a virtual computer.

    I think, a RAW device is listed as the VcVirtualDisk type too?

    Anyone know how to determine the LUN ID of a RAW device?

  • Creation of Raw Device Mapping (RDM) is not supported for local storage (1017530)

    "Often, localstorage devices do not support VPD page 0x83 and can therefore be used for Raw Device Mappings (RDMS)." The content of the page 0x83 is used as a unique identifier for the device. For more information, see creating Raw Device Mapping (RDM) is not supported for local storage (1017530). »

    Does anyone know if this is even the case for modern storage?

    We are a dell shop, wishing to take advantage of the ability to create up to 64 TB RDM.

    However, the storage of the host in question will be local SAS only.

    Prefer not to have to merge muliple 2 TB VMDK into windows to make a record of 4.5 to.

    Then projected on the presentation 1 x 4.5 CT rdm

    If you plan to use a SAS controller, you should be able to do this. Your drive will be identified as a device of the naa, and you will be able to add as an RDM to VM - only with ESXi 5 (which can support more than 2 TB LUN).

  • Cannot add Raw Device Mapping as hard drive

    Hello

    We have 2 Server 2008 Virtual Machines (which are clustered) that make up a Cluster 2 node x.  The ESX servers that organize these VMs (ESX Server different on each) are connected to a San.  When I place these two VMs, I could add a hard drive "Raw Device Mapping" without problem - he could see data warehouses, I had Setup on the SAN.  However when I try to add a hard drive "Raw Device Mapping" on the 2 new virtual machines, the only options I have are:

    -Create a new virtual disk

    -Use an existing virtual disk

    Any ideas why Raw Device Mappings is greyed out?

    You add the second node RDM disk by selecting "use an existing virtual disk".  The ability to add RAW devices is only available for RAW LUN which has already been mapped to a virtual machine.

    When you add the ROW to the first node, a mapping for the RDM vmdk file was created. It's that developed from the second node.

    I want to delete the hiberfil.sys to save disk space. I'm doing this is because hybrnation is already disabled in the GUI. But this file again Aalst 2 GB of space. I tried running the command cmd and fled as administrator, powercfg - h. But I get a message that I don't have permission to enable or disable the Hiberntion. So please think about if I can remove this in my Windows 7, and in the future if I will I can use Hibernate?

    Demarrer start in Safe Mode, and then delete the file. Ensure that hibernation is not enabled.
    If you still can't delete it, use another bootable disk, and then delete it.

    I recently bought 13 elements for Mac OS and can not download N - OS and can not download files NEF RAW taken on my Nikon d5500 has been added. The model is not among those supported by the elements, but the D5300 is, which is almost identical. Is there a quick fix?

    What is N - OS?

    For the problem of camera raw, every new device has its own raw format, and ACR must be updated to include the latter. Happened yet for the d5500 has been added, so you'll just have to use the Nikon software until Adobe gets the info and releases an updated version of ACR. It is not uncommon to be in your situation, if you buy a camera model that was only a month. You just wait a bit.

  • PSE8 - I can't save RAW to JPG files

    I just started using the Elements 8.
    After opening and editing my Raw files (from cameras Nikon cameras NAVE and Olympus ORF) there is no option to save it as a JPG file. The format options that are available are - PSD, PSE, P.RAW, PDF, PNG, and TIFF.
    If I open a JPG file and edit there is the possibility to save it in JPG format.

    What I am doing wrong?

    You need to convert the image to 8bits first, before the Save. This can be done in Raw Editor, or the editor of PES. In PSE7, the command was Image > Mode > 8/bits

  • How to check the space on the asm and raw device?

    Hi all

    I want to know how to check the space on the device of the DSO.
    We use a feature of the asm, which is on a raw partition.
    Our archive is full. I need to check the space on asm archve partiotion.
    How can I check the destination space archive?
    We are using partition raw device for crs and voting system.
    How can we check the space on the raw device and how do know us which device is currently in use and are not in service

    Thanks in advance

    What version of oracle?
    Install the OCR + VOTE in gross unit better than OCFS2. If you use 10g to 11 GR 1 material.

    If use 11 GR 2, take the OCR + VOTE in ASM disk group.

    You can check what raw OCR device:
    $ ocrcheck

    VOTEDISK:
    $ crsctl query css votedisk

    On 10g if using the raw device for OCR + votedisk: recommend 1 file = 250M
    11g recommend 1 file = 512M
