Delete the backups?

Hi all!

Is it possible that I can delete obsolete backups (backupsets and no copies)? If I run
REMOVE THE OBSOLETE 3 DAYS RECOVERY WINDOW;
It removes all copies and the backupsets. Is it possible in which I keep copies and delete backupsets or vice versa?

The problem arises because I moved to the ASM. To multiplex the controlfile, I created a backup of the controlfile.
-Http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/chan_sing2rac_install.html reference section 2. (o)

The controlfile was saved as a copy and is active. Now, when I run the
REMOVE THE OBSOLETE 3 DAYS RECOVERY WINDOW;
in my backup script, it cannot remove backups because the controlfile is active.
Database does not RMAN delete obsolete backups. All obsolete backups are pious.

Have you tried to do the following:

RMAN>change copy of controlfile uncatalog;

  • I deleted the backup but the iCloud space does not come back?

    Hello, I'm Edding:

    A few days earlier, iCloud warn me your iCloud-storage space is nearly full , so I check Storage manage my iCloud and I find backing up my iPhone and iPad are about 3 G of space above. So I delete the backup on iPhone.

    BUT!, so far, the backup space deleted do not come back?

    This is a shot of the screen of the Preferences system-> iCloud-> Manage

    Is there something wrong with that?

    THX.

    Seems like you always have space reserved for your backup. One of the fixes that worked for me was to start backup until it becomes larger, then removes it again.

  • Delete the backups on my Macbook Pro

    I backed up my macbook with an external hard drive. I did it to free up space by deleting things out of my macbook and just to have them on my external hard drive. When I did it that he asked if I wanted to use Time Machine and I just agree, I don't know if Time Machine has nothing to do with the problem or not, but that's just what I know, it happened when the problem started to occur. After that my computer has been backed up and I deleted everything that needed to be removed I checked my disk space hard and instead to have plenty of everything I have just deleted, I now 28 GB used by backups. I tried to remove my time machine backups but nothing happened and I want to know how to delete these backups because I am in College and making movies and really need all the space I can get.

    Maybe that's the problem you encounter:

    If this is the case, you can ignore the shots as they will be deleted if more space is needed for other data.

  • How can I manually delete the backup of my iCloud storage?

    Background. I have the free iCloud of 5 GB storage allocation. 3.51 GB is occupied by a backup of iOS device. 1.48 GB is available free space. I replaced an iPhone damaged 6 running iOS 9.3.1 with the new equipment, running the same applications and iOS, April 2. The iPhone 6 is the only iOS device I own. The new equipment has provided a daily notice iTunes 'your iOS devices can not be saved because there is not enough storage iCloud available."indicates that your last backup occurred on April 1 at 01:55. Backup on iCloud is clearly associated with an iOS device I own is no longer, and I would like to delete it to free up space that can be used for backup of my new iOS device.

    To manage the space in iCloud, on your iPhone, go to:

    Settings > general > storage & use iCloud > manage storage (under ICLOUD)

    It will show you what is to be backed up under BACKUPS.  Tap the backup, you don't want and scroll to the bottom of the next screen of information and tap on delete backup (in red).

  • delete the backups time machine (all) on an external HD is from another machine

    I have an external hard drive with backup TM to a second computer I want to free up space on deleting all backup sets. I understand that simply by moving the folder to the trash and empty it is not the recommended method. So, should I enter TM with the drive connected, navigate to the drive that has the backup sets, and right click on the folder that contains these and click on 'delete all backups? They take about 500 GB. No idea how long it will take to remove them? (I tried this method a moment ago, the computer has become impossible to use, and finally I was able to cancel the process. "If it takes hours I'll try tonight.)

    Thank you very much.

    If backups TM are the only items on the disk, you can just reformat.

  • Cannot delete the backup files to external HARD disk

    I tried to remove most of the backup sets on an external HARD drive, but always free poster of 465 GB file Explorer only 213 GB.  I chose the drive in "Disk Clean-up, but which showed no files to delete.  I had a virus on the disk scan to see what files have been on this subject, and so there are hundreds of thousands of them, starting by ' $RECYCLE. BIN... ".  Anyone know how to remove these?  Operating system is Windows Vista SP2.

    Hi John

    Some of the files that you see (as the trash) are system files and do not need to be deleted.

    Before taking other measures, what volume of personal files is on the external hard drive? Did you direct copies of music/photos etc.? -"Free 465 GB only 213 GB" is not quantify how many do you think should be free!

    Also - what the drive and were records of backup performed using embedded software of the player?

    The best solution here is perhaps simply reformat the drive (after making sure that you have an exact replica of all personal files on your pc that you can then copy to it) but give us a little more detail the first.

    Thank you - R

  • Can't see or delete the backup data

    I am struggling with what follows. I keep getting messages that my icloud storage is almost at capacity and I don't want my 5 GB storage capacity.

    When I go the app iCloud on any of my devices (1 x 5, 1 x iPad, Windows with iCloud App iPhone), it shows a graphic that the vast majority (about 4 GB off the 5 GB used) capacity is used by backups (a few photos, some mail). However, when I click on 'manage storage', he told me that the backups are "0 Kb". I can't select the data for backups and therefore cannot select or remove what it contains.

    In short, I don't need my devices stored in iCloud - I have a server at home and iTunes for this. I like to keep my photos and email on there, but it is there no space left. I had an old MacBook that went wrong and had several libraries of iPhoto on it that I think got corrupted who took loads of space, so it may be the culprit. But I no longer access that material so cannot connect to iCloud from that device.

    I did a temporary fix to my box with smaller letters, but don't see why I should limit myself to about 1 GB of data in iCloud when they offer 5!

    Any help most appreciated.

  • If I delete the backup of the Service Pack files to create more disk space, I have created a potential problem?

    Periodically, I use Disk Cleanup to create more space and speed up the startup time. Today when my computer is on, it took an extra long time but when I ran disk cleanup, the amount of space to win does not jive with the time it took to load. Then I pulled the top "Clean up System Files" and cleaning the my backup files of the Service Pack, I have everything to gain from 920 MB of space.

    Question: If I delete those, am I causing potential damage to my system?

  • delete the backup

    Hello
    Dear,
    I've deleted all my RMAN backup with delete backup command .but when I run the query on v$ rman_backup_job_details, display information, I don't know that v$ rman_backup_job_details where data read?
    and how to remove full that v$ rman_backup_job_details show any thing?


    Best regards and thank you
    Hassan

    Hello

    v$ rman_backup_job_details is in fact a synonym that is based on the prefix of the dynamic display with v_$ rman_backup_job_details and these dynamic display is based on the prefix of the dynamic tables with X$ and these dynamic arrays are created in nomount and mount and it is automatically maintained and updated by Oracle and Oracle does not allow to perform the DML operation manual on these tables , but as suggested by using this function (SYS. DBMS_BACKUP_RESTORE.resetCfileSection (28);) you can delete all previous RMAN story of job.

  • Factory reset is TimeCaps also delete the backup of my drive?

    Hi, I recently factory reset my TimeCapsules to reconfigure some new network settings and I did it without taking into consideration on my time machine backups. Now, I am unable to climb or find my previous backups. Is this because all my backups are all gone? Help, please...

    A factory zero only affect the parameters of the network on the Time Capsule.

    Data on the disk hard are not affected at all unless you have done a completely separate and deliberate ' erase disc '.

    To see if your old backups are always on the Time Capsule, try to hold down the option key on your Mac by clicking the Time Machine "clock" at the top of the screen. Then click Browse other backup disks, select your backup drive, and then click use selected drive.
