Operating systems: Solaris Sparc 64-bit

Description of the problem:

Cloning of the Source A instance instance target B, and both are in ASM instances. RMAN backup pending source ended, that has the spfile configured in the default location in ASM for example, see below

DATAFILE Y.

Y CONTROLFILE.

N spfiletest1.ora = > +ASMDG003/TEST1/PARAMETERFILE/SPFILE.747.856347

In addition, there is no SPFILE in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs to the TEST1 source instance. INITTEST1.ora file has the following entry:

Cat INITTEST1.ora

SPFile='+ASMDG003/test1/spfileTEST1.ora'

Question: In the instance target to be cloned from RMAN backup FRO instance source TEST1, the performance of ' restore automatic backup spfile "rental."

  • Restore from a different location from the original location of RMAN backup

    All,

    Sorry to bother you on this simple question, but it's something I've never done before:

    Background
    =======

    My sys admin is currently copying a full backup of the default RMAN backup location to another location on the drive (say/u01/oracle/backup).
    The backup was performed using RMAN and in my view, THAT RMAN knows that his initial backup location. See RMAN permanent setting below:

    SET UP DEFAULT DISK DEVICE TYPE;
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT for DEVICE TYPE DISK TO ' / banksys_arch0/backup/ora_cf%F';
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' TO '%F ';
    SET UP THE DEVICE TYPE DISK BACKUP FOR PARALLELISM BACKUPSET TABLET 1 TYPE;
    SET UP THE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP BACKUPSET TYPE;
    CONFIGURE BACKUP OF DATA TO DISK FILE TYPE DEVICE TO 1;

    Question
    ======
    I need to restore and recover the database from this new backup location. This is as simple as the following:

    1 change the default RMAN location to the new location:

    DISK CONFIGURATION CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE FORMAT "u01/oracle/backup/ora_df%t_s%s_s%p". (note that I've changed it to the new location)

    2 restore and recover (I have a good knowledge/experience in the part).

    Thanks in advance.

    just by changing the default backup location, custom RMAN find backups on its own, you should always run an overlap

    However I would not change the default location temporarily

    RMAN> CATALOG START WITH '/my/backup/location'
    

    will be of RMAN recognize your backups

  • Backup archives from a location not defined by default using RMAN

    I often spend my files from their default location to another location due to the pressure of space.

    Is there a way in which the archives in a default location can be saved (without moving them back to the original location) with RMAN.

    Thank you

    Alaka

    For each archivelog that has a default location, run the

    RMAN command

    RMAN > CATALOGUE ARCHIVELOG 'new_name_of_archivelog '.

  • ITunes media folder location has changed, but it keeps resetting to the default location

    Hello

    I changed my iTunes media folder location. My internal drive has two drives (was originally a Fusion player, after a system crash, I had to clean it and install Mac OS from scratch and is no longer read as a reader of fusion, but I agree with it), so one of the discs that I use for the OS itself and the other to store the data. I've changed most of my files application for the storage disk storage. When I change the location of folder of media to iTunes, after reboot, it restores the original file to ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media.

    Why does that happen?

    If this info can help, I do not have the bluetooth icon in the menu bar, so I removed it by opening bluetooth preferences and unchecked 'see the bluetooth in the menu bar. He disappears. When I restart, it seems once again, it is not happened to Yosemite.

    Thanks in advance.

    iTunes will revert to the default locations, if the configured drive is not present when iTunes opens. This happens if the drive is not mounted or asleep...

  • Hi, Firefox does create backups of autmatic of bookmarks, then save them in a default location?

    I had to reset my PC & re - install FF without first using a manual backup of bookmarks. The reset process apparently retains all data files, but does not keep Apps. I hope I can do my new Firefox to the old bookmarks file and... Hey presto... I retrieve my favorites?
    (Thanks in advance for your suggestions)

    The usual kind of reset in recent versions of Windows keeps your old user folder but it moving here:

    C:\Windows.old\Users\your-user-name\
    

    You will find this file? If so, your Firefox data are probably here - and here's how I suggest to access:

    First of all, it would be useful to set windows to display the hidden files and folders. This article has the steps: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files

    Then click in:

    Username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles C:\Windows.old\Users\

    Note: you may find a cache under AppData\Local folder, but everything important is under AppData\Roaming.

    Here you can find one or several folders named random semi. Who has most recently updated content is probably the one you want to restore from.

    Bookmarks only

    Go down the old bookmarkbackups folder and copy the last two backups in a location such as the desktop.

    The restore feature will replace the bookmarks in Firefox by default (and what you added since the reset) with all like bookmarks. If you want preserve newly added bookmarks, use the first, export function before the restore, then the import function later. The following articles have details:

    Success?

    Complete restoration

    This post has my suggested procedure to resurrect your old wide profile in your new installation of Firefox. Please note the use of the copy instead of move throughout the process. This allows you to try again if it fails somewhere along the way.

  • How can I restore my default browser

    I have problems with my email Go Daddy account. Go daddy said that I need to restore my default browser. I already deleted my history, cookies and cache settings. How can I restore firefox default.

    I'll answer that in a few minutes, but first of all, what is the problem you are having with the account?

    What the function of Firefox Reset done that create a folder of fresh settings, carrying over your bookmarks, saved passwords and some other information but shedding some of your add-ons (extensions and themes) and custom settings. It's quick and easy, but in some cases, you can lose information, such as groups of tabs, it's important to you. This article contains more information: Refresh Firefox – reset settings and Add-ons.

    To see if a reset is likely to help until you do, you could test email from GoDaddy in a totally blank Firefox profile. A new profile inherits the plugins already installed on your system, such as Flash, but otherwise, will look like a new installation. If this does not resolve the problem of GoDaddy, then it is useless to do a reset.

    If you want to try this, close Firefox and starts in the Profile Manager, as described in this article: use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox. Any time want spending profiles, close Firefox and come back to this dialog box. I recommend that you use the suggested default location, do not delete anything without first making backups.

    The site works as expected in the new profile?

  • Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to fix it?

    No Option to install repair - SAD

    Hello

    Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.

    I recently had a problem where Vista Business 64-bit would only boot to a black screen with a mobile cursor - KSOD.   Who, in searching the Web I found is a fairly common problem with Vista.  I discovered that my only option was about to reinstall Vista CLEAN and all the other programs I had installed under it.  I can't believe that Microsoft released the 'repair installation option"similar to that of Windows XP, where you can hit the"R"key during installation and we left with nothing but the"System Restore"options and"Startup Repair ".  Neither of which has helped in my situation.  Since then, this was a dual system boot with XP Pro, then any restore point has been removed from the partition to Vista anytime, I started another recognized problem, by Microsoft, which Microsoft has made no significant effort to fix, in addition to recommending that you hide the partion Vista in XP - a whole of XP.  That beats a little the entire purpose of dual boot.

    As I tried to start in safe mode, it left me at the same point as a normal boot - black screen with a cursor.  I tried ctrl + alt + delete and nothing. Two Windows RE options did not help me.  This left me no option but to the completely reinstall Vista.   Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.. Please don't tell me that it is because Vista uses an image file instead of an installation as XP system.   I see no other reason for not allowing the upgrade of outside BONE in addition to Microsofts greed and paranoia that he can transform the operating system easier to install illegally.  I hope that some third party has actually changed the Vista installation routine to allow you to install Vista on itself, because as it is, it's really hard for me to even recommend Vista as the operating system or install any where else, if not the only recourse after loading OS, is to reinstall completely.

    Adobe, Autodesk, and almost all other software publishers... allow you to perform a "REPAIR" of their software installation, if something prevents you to load after installation.  Even MS Office has a routine repair.  Ms has an internal version of the Setup routine which allows outside the OS upgrade option that you want to "Upgrade" / repair? ".  If not, why?

    -Todd w.

    "Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair."

    «.. . After using XP's repair function, the operating system itself would become less stable and frankly not in a good state of repair. »

    "This response does not hold water as on one of my computers I've been running Windows XP for about four years now, after a repair install.

    Then, you were lucky.  Try to replace the system files on a computer that does not start even at a desk or safe mode usually will get a return to office, but will probably repeat the same problem in a few weeks.  Tech professional would only use this function to retrieve the data before a complete reinstallation.

    It is a place that will try to help you fix your computer if you have problems.  It has technicians in computing, no decision-makers, developers or executives.  We will try to answer technical questions about problems you might have with Windows Vista.

    If you want to have input on the future of Microsoft operating systems, then help you beta-test and provide feedback to the developers.  Windows 7 and IE 8 are currently in beta.

  • How to MOVE the default location of Windows Fax and Scan?

    We have recently added a second server (Windows Server 2008) to a domain AD., because the new server has more resources, we moved all the DOCUMENTS folder to users from the server (Server 2003) network share to address liked to a share on the new Server 2008 machine. After the move, all Windows 7 machines runs the utility of fax and scan can not find MANY DOCUMENTS folder as the utility constantly points to the old server (which took the OLD action of document already deleted).

    I changed the location of DOCUMENTS in Windows 7 for Server 2008 sharing, but Fax and Scan keeps searching for the old stock 2003 server and I cannot find where to redirect them. Can I turn off Windows fax and analysis services to the title of printing and scanning and then restore? That will allow me to redirect to the correct folder? I have tried even to search the registry for references to the old stock but still can't seem to locate the old server to the MANY DOCUMENTS reference.

    Can anyone help?

    I solved this problem with a synlink

    First to find the actual location of Library/Documents/scanned documents, make this scanned Documents to right click and click 'open file location '.

    In my case he opened it (that I copied from the address bar):

    Documents C:\Users\Tim\Documents\Scanned

    What should I do now is to save the files in this folder, and then delete the "Documents" folder completely

    Then click the windows key and type in run or search (or click the Windows key + R) and type 'cmd' and press enter

    A black console should appear

    In it, you must enter this command, I wanted that my scans to record in X:\Scans

    MKLINK /j "C:\Users\Tim\Documents\Scanned Documents" X:\Scans

    then press enter

    This creates a folder (symlink, not a shortcut), who acts as a normal file, but is actually located in a different place, so when the scan software saves files in its default location will be actually stored in X:\Scans

  • Default location for My Documents - Error Message

    I followed a tutorial online on changing the default location of the My Documents folder.

    I have moved from C to E, where I had more room.

    Now, I want to go again - but when I go into properties, restore the default values and apply it finally said he can't move a particular file, its file name is too long. So I closed the screen IE cancelled out of them. Found the directory that contains the files and delete it.

    Restarted the PC and when I try and move the default my documents location it still doesn't move and it gives me the same error message.

    How can I work around this problem and move the my docs back to the c drive?

    Thanks, Sam

    1. I have created a folder on your desktop (any name will do, is not serious).  Drag all your documents to the E: drive in this folder.
    2. So now that documents of drive E: is totally empty, go ahead and move the location using the properties box, as if you were in front.
    3. Then after that the move is done, drag all the files from the Office folder in the actual location and delete the folder you made in step 1.
