Moving files from files/control/data files of recovery in a SAN

Hello world
Recently my body set up a San and I was instructed to move the data files of the current WINDOWS 2003 SERVER on the San. the way things are set up now, is that if I connect to my oracle server, I can see the local volumes on the SAN listed as disk drives.
I guess that software will remain on the oracle server, while the data files will be moved to the SAN. My question is what are the steps involved to address this question: can I first of all move DATA files, then the REDOLOG FILES, and CONTROL FILES? I never had to move my data files before on another server or on disk, so I'll just try get a feedback on the most convenient way to do so. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hello!

To move the files to an Oracle database, you should close it. I guess that there are no problems with your San. I only describe the steps needed to move the files from a to b.

Movement of data - and redologfiles.
1.) query v$ data_file

SELECT name, file#
FROM   v$datafile;

This will give you a complete overview of the data files that you need to move.
2.) query v$ log_file

SELECT member
FROM   v$logfile;

This will give you a complete overview of the redologfiles, you need to move.
3.) stop your database.
4.) move all the data files to the new location.
5.) rename the data files in the database

ALTER DATABASE
RENAME FILE 'old_path/filename' TO 'new_path/filename';

6.) move all the redolog files to the new location.
7.) rename the redologfiles in the database (see step # 5)
8.) create a pfile your spfile file (only if you use spfile)

CREATE PFILE='C:\pfile.ora'
FROM SPFILE;

9.) move your controlfiles to the new location
10.) Alter the CONTROLFILES parameter in the file pfile recently created.
11.) create a SPFILE from your newly created pfile.

CREATE SPFILE
FROM  PFILE='C:\pfile.ora';

12.) start your database (and pray)

Yours sincerely

  • Moving video files from digital camera, date taken does not save

    On Win7 Pro I'm having a problem where when I move the files from my digital camera Canon or my Sony digital camcorder to HDD the date taken on the videos aren't save. It defines at the time I moved the hard disk instead. It comes to all the dates in the properties.

    It's only when I copy the video files keep everything file photo.

    This happens when I copy files directly from the camera or the SD card

    All the files on the camera are correct but none of those on the hard drive.

    Ok. I had trouble to transfer photos from my old computer to my new computer.  The dates and times on the pictures changed.

    I finally got the moved and kept the correct dates on each photo.

    That's what I did:

    1. I opened the 'Pictures' folder on the old computer and click on "Select all" under the tab 'Edit' at the top.

    2. then I went to the "Edit" tab and choose "move to folder".

    3. in the next window, called '' Elements to move, '' I found the file that I wanted to move the photos to and selected this folder and then clicked on "move".

    4. all photos have been transferred to the new computer with the date and time correct.

    5. However, this deletes all photos from the old computer.  But I do not really need them on the old computer since I will be recycling with Dell.

    We sincerely hope that this information helps someone else, since I had a hard time finding how to do this task.

    Good luck.

  • Moving files from VirtualCenter in another data store

    Hello

    I'm running my VirtualCenter server as a VM and it's vm files are stored on a data store that is on our SAN.

    Now I want to migrate the server to another store of data also on the SAN.

    Could someone please explain to me the steps? I looked at a number of articles, son and they speak using vmkfstools but none of them are specific to the VC.

    Thank you

    Hi Keith,

    That wasn't supposed to happen!  Can you connect to the VC via RDP and use the VI client it?  You have to probably close and reopen the VI client for this plugin tobe recognized...?  The problem is persistent?

    Anything in the VC / VI client opens a session?

  • Moving files from e-mail to Photo Gallery

    I moved files from my phone to my email.  How can I move these photos in my photo gallery? Thank you...

    I moved files from my phone to my email.  How can I move these photos in my photo gallery? Thank you...

    Are these images located in the email... in the form of an attachment?

    If so, and assuming you are using Windows Mail > click the attahment (or paper clip) > click on save attachments > navigate to your pictures folder > click Save.

    Photo Gallery is just a middleman. Pictures are actually stored in your pictures folder, not the gallery.

  • Keep the original creation date when copying or moving files (Windows XP/7, Windows Server 2003/2008)

    I know that the default behavior of (any version) Windows when copying or moving files, is that Windows makes everything first creates a new folder, copy the content, and when you move files, deletes the source after successful copy folder. Unlike Mac OS, where mechanisms of copy and move assume that when you copy a folder, the properties of the copied folder should have the same properties as the source folder, so to keep the original date of creation!

    Is it possible to change this behavior in Windows? I know that Robocopy in Windows Server 2008 has an option to keep the dates of creation of record, but I would like to know if you can change Windows 7/Windows Server 2008 behave similarly.

    It is very annoying that when you restore or copy a folder, the new folder has the date of the creation of the current date instead of the date of original creation.  People tend to look for old records that exist is no longer when you copied or moved the files.

    Hey E Kyung,
     
    There is no way to do this in windows. The design of Windows, this is the creation date refers to the file, while the date of the amendment relates to the content. If the creation date is really important to you, you can set after the copy with a utility.

    The easiest is to right-click on the file and drag it to the destination folder. you will be asked to copy or move. If you move, the creation date will not change.

    Yes, Robocopy is available in Windows 7.

  • Windows restarts when I select the option to remove the program from the Control Panel files

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit installed. System of the down stops and restarts whenever I select the option to remove programs from the control panel. First of all, the problem occurred when I upgraded the version of iTunes. Restoration has solved the problem. Same thing happened when I upgraded my version of PowerDVD. Restored again to solve the problem. Just installed Office 2010 and the problem came back. I don't seem to be able to install software without this problem. Any help gratefully received.

    Hi Rugger,

    Welcome to the community Microsoft and thanks for posting the question.

    This issue could be happen if system files have been corrupted or any third party application conflicts.

    I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1:

    I suggest you perform a SFC Scan and check if it helps.

    Steps to perform a scan SFC:

    a. click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, and open the command prompt.

    b. type the following command and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    [The command sfc /scannow. analysis of all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.]

    Once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

    Reference: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Method 2:

    I suggest you perform a clean boot and check if it helps.

    Clean boot will check if any third-party application is causing the problem, as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Hello

    Just guessed myself using the cmdlet copy-datastoreitem - good KB article here

    After the connection to your vCenter server, connect to the data store and mount the source as a PSdrive data store, and then use the cmdlet.  It also works well download a data store and the downloading of a data store: just spent around objects in - point and - Destination.

    At first glance, it seems that you need to know the source path of the data store.

  • Macintosh HD disappeared from records while moving files on external hard drive

    Just as the title says.  I moved files in LR this morning of an external HD (created the new folder, drag / drop individual files to new folder HD) and after adding a large folder of photos (about 1/6 of my size of the entire catalog), the task is completed and my main Macintosh HD folder disappeared.  The files are still on display in large "all photographs" under catalog at the top and the files are still on my computer.

    Someone knows how to get Macintosh HD to reappear under folders, so I can move the remaining files of the photo the external HD?  I would rather not move them outside of Lightroom.

    Thank you!

    The computer is still not clean or the malware did too much damage to the operating system. First of all, make sure that the computer is really clean looking at these removal steps:

    If you were this meticulous, you are ready to move to the next step. If you were not this thorough, do the work and maybe the problem will be solved.

    If the computer is really clean, you can try a repair installation. If the repair installation does not work, back up your data and do a clean install of Windows.

  • Plant system Windows Explorer when copying or moving files: error explore 0xc000012d

    Windows Explorer crashes XP Home (laptop) system when copying or moving files that gives the error message: explore 0xc000012d.  Text and images suddenly begins to disappear from the screen (go faster if you move the mouse on the screen!), system crashes, gives the blue screen and stops. No time to save data, which is happening so fast.  I lose all data in open programs.  RAM is tested without error, ATI Mobility Radeon X 1300 driver has been updated, system fully updated, but nothing is. Could not find any information on the MS Support or on the web that would help.  Please help - tired system crash all the time!

    Pippuri,

    Try to disable the fast user switching and see if that helps.

    Go to control panel, double-click user accounts, and then change the way users log on and outside. Should be a checkbox to turn on fast user switching.

    Let us know if it works. Thank you.

  • Unopenable after moving files

    When I move the files TIFF image on a server (I work in a Museum of history) a machine remote, often impossible to open these reliable image files.  Photoshop displays the message, "could not complete your request because it isn't the right kind of document.".   Look in Windows Explorer reveals that he has no data for these images in the column "Dimensions".  An attempt to rename the folder in which sometimes generates an "access denied" message (this occurs when the file is not open anywhere else).  No other Viewer or editor will open the file.  This doesn't happen when you move TIFF files from a remote computer on the server.  It also does not occur when you copy and stick a file only when it is cut and pasted or dragged and dropped.  He always seems to be a computer on the network, however, which can open the apparently altered files.  Curiously, it is not the same machine from one day to the other.  Sometimes, I was able to open these files after restarting the machine whose files have been moved to the origin.  I have not seen this happen with other types of image files (for example, JPEG files).  Our network administrator has not yet been able to solve the mystery.  What happens here?

    All what you describe sounds like a permissions problem access the file.  The default behavior is that moved files to another volume inherit the access permissions of the folder destination while the files moved within a volume to maintain their permissions.  Which copy (and not animated) files in the same volume, the copied file again will inherit the permissions of the folder to which it is moved to.  This is the default behavior.  It can be changed.  Everything is explained here:

    "How permissions are handled when you copy and move files and folders.
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310316 >

    Another way to approach this problem is to check the folder that the file in network-transferred to has the access permissions for other users of this computer (as well as the folder that you end by moving to).  For more information on this aspect, try this link:

    "How to disable the file sharing simple and how to set permissions on a shared folder in Windows XP"
