• Problem in database recovery

  I have the database to Oracle 10 g (10.2.0.1.0) on Windows Server 2003
  
  I took hot RMAN full backup of database.
  
  I copied the backup files in the flash recovery area.
  
  I have another computer with windows server 2003 and Oracle 10 g even version. I copied the backup files of the first machine to the file of the Flash recovery area on the second computer.
  
  Now, I'm trying to restore the database from the first machine to the second machine.
  
  1. I created a new instance on second machice with the same name as in the First machine.
  2. I created a file password ORA as well.
  3 SET ORACLE_SID = < name of DB as it was the first machine >
  4 RMAN TARGET sys / < password given to the new pwd ORA file > @ < name DB > nocatalog
  5 SET DBID = < dbid of the old database >
  6 STARTUP NOMOUNT FORCE
  7 RESTORE SPFILE FROM PFILE "< new pfile file path >" "< path where the backup files are there >."
  8. CREATE UDUMP, BDUMP, CDUMP, PFILE ORADATA FILES when it is required;
  9. STOP IMMEDIATELY;
  10 STARTUP NOMOUNT PFILE = "< path to the newly created pfile > ';
  11 RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM "< backup file path >"
  12. ALTER DATABASE MOUNT;
  Everything works very well so far
  
  Now, my next step was
  
  13 RESTORE THE DATABASE;
  
  Then it gives error as: -.
  
  RMAN > restore database;

  First, I copied the Flash recovery area backup files, then I copied the files to "D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database" as well. Because I did it in 9i, 9i I copied the backup files in the backup folder and while the RMAN restore successfully takes the file in this folder & restores the database. but in 10g RMAN is not to recognize the backup path. How can this problem be solved? Or is it a different problem that I don't get?
  
  Waiting for response...

  You say, backups are on drive D, but RMAN is waiting for the files on drive E. But backups is not found or planned and therefore duplication of "EXPIRED" status reports For the same reason, the restore fails. Either you have to provide the intended location or re-catalogue of backupsets to a new location.

  Help, please.

  (i) make sure that you are on the database server
  (II) ensure that the OracleService is running
  (III) start the database without using an entry of tns.

  for example if your instance is called AGD can

  Open the Dos window:

  set oracle_sid=AGD
  sqlplus / as sysdba
  startup;
  

  NB: You may need to use a user name and password to connect to the db

  eg sqlplus sys/ as sysdba
  

  Then you must also make sure that your listener is running
  type

  lsnrctl status
  

  Since the dos window on the database server. Your instance must be listed with a status of loan

  This is because as soon as you open the standby database, application of roll forward stops. At least that's true up to 10 gr 2, 11 g, you have the option "Active Dataguard" (requires an additional license), which allows to apply, while the database is open.

• Problems starting HP Mini 210-2100, partition deleted, flashing the line underscore, System Recovery does not

  Hi all

  my situation is like this:

  When I turn on my laptop I get a black screen with a flashing underscore above it "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key" (even if the BIOS boot order a hard drive for laptop on top). I changed this order a couple of times because I used a USB stick with Windows 7 on it (black version) to enter System Recovery Options (without USB I can't access the system recovery (F11 doesn't work not).)

  My System Recovery Options window is white/empty (no operating system, the size of the partition and the location). I'm going on and click repair system that did not help (it of a loop, do not start Windows). In the Diagnostics and repair of details it is Root cause found:

  The partition table doesn't have a valid System Partition.

  Repair action: Partition table repair

  Result: Completed successfully. Error code = 0 x 0

  That's because before this problem starting with underscore flashing, I had another problem: "BOOTMGR is missing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart» I was impatient and wanted to fix that quickly and made a big mistake, after looking on the web for some time I have found no useful websites describing how to fix it (I found one when it was already too late). I went on a channel on youtube and came with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8n-G9Rv2zo before I didn't know what a clean install was, I looked up 03:55 and made perfect:

  CMD:

  DiskPart

  list disk

  Select disk 0

  partition from the list

  selected and deleted all 4 partitions (size: 215GB, 199 MB, GB, 103-17 MB)

  created new partitions same dimensions (all the primary dimensions)

  then I stopped and clicked on a cross (x) in cmd to get out when I came to a new window where I clicked on YES (I have not read what he was doing, I just wanted to go to bed because it was too late). Since there is no "BOOTMGR is missing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart"(damage because now I know how to fix this, I was just too stupid, impatient and irresponsible), there is just a line of underscore flashing with"No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key"any of the BIOS boot order is this sentence does not disappear. He did a couple of times before, but no more.

  So after this long description, my question is:

  Is there a way to recover my data which I assume is lost and can not restore? I have no backups or images.

  P.S. I do not installed Windows 7, I just deleted partition table and created a new.

  Sorry for my English, I'm not a native speaker. Thank you in advance.

  Hi MatBar,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I'm sorry but there is no way to recover the data once you have deleted the partition. You could try a local repair facility, given that some devices of data to recover your data.

  You may restore the Windows 7 operating system with disks if you find someone with the same version of Windows that you use their discs.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you.

• Problem starting the Lenovo recovery disks.

  Hello

  I just got a set of Lenovo recovery disks.
  . It might be easy, but I've noticed a problem

  There are 4 DVD in two procedure:

  (1) system: ('start your recovery with this one')

  Disc 2 of 2 - Applications and drivers recovery disk (64-bit)

  OK, so I want to me 64-bit install, put disc "(1) disc 2 of 2 [64 bit] ' but he wants to boot

  After install from installation and disk boots ' (1) disc 1 of 1 [32 bit] ' go well until the first Windows start - and there is an error "Windows Setup cannot continue" / reset and loop.

  Any ideas what shoul I do?
  How to install 64-bit?

  Now I have my 'dead' edge please help!

  [Edge E420s]

  -edit - added msg of error screen after using '(1) disc 1 of 1 (32 bit) "and"(2). "Applications: disc 1 of 2 [64].

  

  

  OK, SOLVED...

  Lenovo send me ill-defined DVD
  They put a 32 bit DVD version (1: 1) to the pack, and they must give me 64 bit (cd1/2)

  It looks like:
  (1) system: ('start your recovery with this one')

• Satellite A100: Does not start a recovery DVDs

  Hi guys.
  First timer here.
  I have read some of the Q & A on reboot problems the A100 since the recovery DVDs.
  It seems I have the same problems as keith.

  I want to start all over again the OS and my laptop does not start from the DVD.
  Tried the standard f12 boot from cd option. tried her "hold C on the boot option.
  Both options end with no joy.

  The screen that says "loading ramdisk image", loads the machine breaks, asks me to wait, then every time the same thing.
  The screen goes black, flashes very quickly and white and then loads from the hard disk as normal.

  Now try to hold my frustration and do something radical.
  I know that in the Q & A previous, the subject is considered as replied...
  other options?

  My following thoughts are to delete/uninstall almost every thing and try and force the thing to boot from the DVD.
  have also copied the dvd and tried to boot from the copy, always with no joy.

  Are there any other suggestions?

  Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?

  is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?

  is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?

  see you soon,
  Martin

  Hello Martin

  To be honest, it's pretty strange question. There is one thing I am interesting for:
  Is - this first time, you try to use a recovery media for the installation of the OS?

  If possible, try to get the Microsoft CD/DVD facilities to see if the same thing will happen.

  In any case, I will try to give you answers to your questions.
  > Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and to start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?
  It will not work. On the recovery of the media it is recovery image and this image must be installed correctly. You cannot "recover DVD in there. Not question

  > is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?
  I would like to know what you understand under the 'essential processes?

  > Is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?
  You can't do this somehow. If you want to 'reset' HARD drive, you must delete the existing partition or delete any OS installation. After having done that, you need to install new OS. All this will be done at the beginning of the recovery procedure.

  I really don't understand what's wrong there. Please answer to my first question, and we will continue this discussion. ;)

• Re: Satellite A300D-13 has: problems starting - starts not or only black screen

  Hello, I have a Satellite A300D-13 has and the problem is, when I try to start the laptop for most, he tries to boot from the hard drive or the DVD drive but then he just stops and starts again immediately to do the same. In this case 4 or 5 times. Once it seems that it starts well, but the only thing I see is a black screen. And the keyboard does not work either.

  If I try several time with closing by pressing the power button (you know who I mean), I managed it starts normally (but such a situation is always annoying). Moreover, it seems that this happens only when I did use the laptop for a while. So maybe it has something to do with the temperature. But more or less 20 ° C in my room.

  In the Bios I have change the boot order of the sources (I can't change it much more)

  I am grateful for any kind of help.
  Thank you for your cooments in advance

  Hello

  The issue could be related to software, but also for the hardware problem.
  But first, we have to check if it s a software problem.

  You are using the original operating system preinstalled by Toshiba. Is this good?
  AFAIK the most recent series of laptop is equipped with HARD drive recovery option.
  In this case, the Toshiba Recovery DVD has not been delivered with the laptop but there is an option to create a.
  HARD drive recovery option can be used to reinstall and update the operating system.
  I would recommend to repair the operating system and reinstall it again by pressing the F8 key. The Advanced Startup menu should appear and then you must choose to repair your computer.

  This option will start the recovery procedure and the BONES to relocate again.
  Please check if a new facility will improve the situation with Notepad.
  In addition, it would be desirable to update the BIOS, if a newer version of the BIOS is available on the European driver Toshibas page.

  If this suggestion won't help you then whole notebooks material must be check by a local ASP.

• Re: How to start the recovery from the hidden partition?

  Sorry for my English.

  I reinstalled Windows from DVD Windows (win Vista) because I get blue screen sometimes. After the reinstallation, I had the same problem again.
  Now the shop wants to charge me for the service because recovery F8 does not work. I still have this hidden partition, but I put t know how to do the recovery. Any chance of fixing the problem?

  I don t care about the data and the blue screen, I think than is hardware problem.
  Thank you

  Hello

  Now you have the problem. You can start the recovery folder HDDRecovery facility just if your laptop has the factory settings.
  When you use Microsoft facilities disk for the installation of the operating system, this option will be gone.

  You have created recovery DVD such as recommended by Toshiba?

• Problem creating drive recovery for Satellite L550-10N

  Hello.

  I just bought a L550-10N and the first thing I tried to do is to create recovery discs using the Toshiba recovery disc creator.

  Everything went well on the first creation of disc (4 must be created).
  The problem starts with the second disk: about when it's half burned, decisions of the gauge, the DVD drive continues to function for hours and never stops.

  I tried the process again, but it was exactly the same.

  Anyone an idea how to solve this problem?

  Thank you!

  According to my experience, the best thing you can do is to create a recovery media using DVD-R virgins.
  I have created for several different models of laptops using TDK or Verbatim DVD-R media, and every time everything was fine.

• Windows does not start after recovery

  Hey, satellite 1800 started son to have more and more slow to the point where it took close to an hour to boot in Windows. It got to the stage where it seemed that recovery from the CD was the only road - so we did. Everything had to look successful from the point of view of recovery but the installer of Windows XP displays "Please wait...". "with the normal activity of the disc looking for 20-30 seconds and then hangs - no disk activity, the mouse is not responding. I went through the recovery in "expert" mode and don't see any problems with the recovery process. Issues related to the:
  1 no matter who else seen elsewhere?
  2. what else can I do diagnosis-wise?
  3 which, basically, the recovery process not / (fact he re - format partitions, could it have left a virus?)
  4. I'm better h/w or s/w diags?

  Hi Bitshifter,

  topic of your question 3:
  The recovery process replaces the whole HARD drive or even a partition with an image created by Toshiba. This image contains an operating system, drivers, and a few basic programs. All other data (including viruses) in this partition will be deleted.

  question 4:
  I don't know the cause of your problem, but I think it's a hardware problem, because after recovery, there may be incorrect or missing software.

  Sorry I can't give you more information.
  Good luck!

  Hello

  Have you changed anything on your laptop?
  I mean if your HARD drive recovery partition has been changed or the data partition thin o has been removed?

  To be honest, for me, it looks like the issue of the BONE. I think that it s not a question of simple tool, but I think that the operating system was confused

  Maybe you should try to recover the laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery and after the new installation of operating system on your laptop, you can try to create the recovery disk again.

  To start the recovery, you must press the F8 key immediately after the laptop has been powered. Then, you choose the first option called fix my computer.
  This would lead to a new window and there, you could choose Toshiba HDD recovery.

  But note; This recovery would format the whole HARD drive then perhaps you need to back up data before you start this procedure.
