  What would be the advantage?

  ArchiveLogs must be independent of the specific database backups. ArchiveLogs can be used for the review (RECOVER) a database to a point in time beyond the backup database. Can I get L0 data backups once a week and backups of databases L1 on a daily basis with the ArchiveLogs daily. The ArchiveLogs should not be bound to the L0, or L1 backups but be useful to RECOVER the database to any point in time.

• Backup files Vista - "Windows could not find any backup sets [file path]."

  I have a Vista computer.  The hard drive broke so until I replaced it I backed up all the files on the computer to another computer running Windows 7. I did it in the backup and Restore Center.  I made a backup of files, not a full backup of the system (I've seen the full backup of the system mentioned in other posts, but that was not an option... maybe which is only available on Vista Premium).  In any case, I replaced the hard drive and then try to restore the files, but I get the message "Windows could not find any backup sets [file path]."  Anyone have any ideas?  Thank you.

  Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

  Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

  1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

  2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

  3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

  4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

  5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

  6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

  7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

  8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

  9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

  10. and you press "next".

  11 guess what... no error!

  12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

  13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

  14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

  I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).  I hope you find any error or discrepancy in your procedure and it will clear up and allow you to restore.

  I hope this helps.

  You must perform the RESTORE in an auxiliary instance - preferably on another server.

  Note: If you do it on the same server, make sure that
  a. you do not connect to the same database instance
  b. you set NEWNAME so that the data file is extracted to a different location

• RMAN & read-only data files

  DB: 10.2.0.4 (just upgraded from 8i)
  Win 2008 64-bit operating system
  
  This is the first backup of the 10g database after the upgrade & with RMAN.
  I copied all the backup files to another server to test and try to create a new database.
  
  The backup script was: -.

  When I run the BACKUP from the LIST, I can see the data files read-only listed with the rest of the files.

• Use of a single tablespace or backup data file

  Hello
  
  I read the RMAN manual and I'm quite familiar with backup a tablespace or data file, but I can find very little uses for it. Backup upward a tablespace is useful for the TPITR, but since who needs another instance sound very little useful in most production environments. I think that you cannot restore an older version of tablespace in a normal database, except if the tablespace has been done long read-only, in which case RMAN optimizations will do the trick.
  Still less use that I can find for the backup of the data file. I have absolutely no idea of what you can do with a single data file.
  
  Can you please tell me about the uses of these RMAN features?
  
  Thank you.

  Hi again!

  OK, you're right. If you are using noarchivelog moden then a partial database backup is no useful. Only the archivelogmode can make a useful partial backup of DB.

• IMac WITH TIME MACHINE WE BACKUP DATA FILES (MS Money) VMF

  Anyone know how to make a backup of the files to merge with Time Machine data?  I'm just using a virtual machine, no Boot Camp.  OS is XP running Microsoft Money and wish for these data files will be saved, as they automatically on Time Machine backup.  I tried to reset the backup to the shared folder destination, but then could not find it in the shared folder.

  Thank you

  ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

  It is stored in the file package VM, with everything else. So I think you're wondering if you can save the snapshot itself, without having to save the rest of the files for this virtual machine. The answer is probably not "easily", although I'm sure that others with more experience can give you a more detailed answer.

  The long and short if this is probably: If all you want to do, on a regular basis, save the files that are inside the virtual machine that have been changed (for example Money files), you must store them outside of the virtual machine (usually on a shared folder). But make sure you back up the virtual machine itself at least once, and probably whenever you install something again. But of course it depends on how paranoid, you will lose your hard drive (and paranoia is not always a bad thing, aty least in this case).

  I do not have these 2 files newspapers... in the destination mentioned

  Is no question, the create controlfile statement specifies redo filenames - if they do not exist, the Forum could gripe about it, but they will be created at the start of the backup database redo information.

  And if you don't like the names, this problem, which is:

  -- change:
  ... group 1 '\O1_MF_1_80L7C259_.LOG' size ... ,
  group 2 '\O1_MF_2_80L7C375_.LOG' size ...
  -- to
  'C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\oradata\XE\redo\redo01.dbf' size ... ,
  'C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\oradata\XE\redo\redo02.dbf' size ...
  -- if you want three redo files that's fine too- add  group 3 ...
  , group 3 'C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\oradata\XE\redo\redo03.dbf' size ... 
  

  You will have to make the folder "remake", part complete must be a valid directory. The "out of the box" installation program in the tenth place redo files in the flash recovery area. And FRA imposes an arbitrary size limit, 10 GB, I think. Better to point files redo to a different folder, not in the location of the FRA.

  Redo files can also have several members, for extra protection. If at least one member of a group of redo is integrated the database will continue to run. Specify additional members with:

  group 1 ( '\redo01.dbf', '\redo01.dbf' ) size ... ,
  group 2 ( '\redo02.dbf', '\redo02.dbf' ) size ... ,
  group 3 ( '\redo03.dbf', '\redo03.dbf' ) size ... 
  

  I always name the files redo with an extension .dbf, at one point, there was a system administrator I looking a little too aggressive log files that "had to be cleaned up to save space.

  Good for him, he has released a few MB of disk space.

  Bad for me, the instance crashes as soon as he tried to write in a missing file again.

I just need to recover the data file as the last backup.
  or do we have to use all the controls recover datafile? If need to use everything recover datafile command go where it will recover the data file?
  
  I have not any backup or restore script, I just manually PCs from data files.
  
  Help please, thanks in advance...

  It is a ' user backups managed by "in the terminology of the Oracle.
  The database does not care how you copy (backup or restore) the data file from a backup location. So, you can use scp to copy the backup to the backup file.
  HOWEVER , you can recover only a datafile to the single point of the backup. Given that the rest of the database (i.e. all the other data files) have advanced further, you must RETRIEVE the DATA file and apply all ArchiveLogs since this backup of data file point to the current point (i.e. recovery would be until it again online that would apply automatically).
  Therefore, if you have had the "transactions" (e.g. deletions) against this tablespace, they will be replayed.

• With RMAN for backup, but not with the archive logs

  We run a 10.2.0.4 database and the rest 11.2.0.3. All databases are on RHEL 5.7.
  
  Our backups are via RMAN, with the data files, controlfiles and spfile saved to disk, then each day, it is copied off site to a backup server.
  
  My question is around logs archiving and RMAN.
  Our current situation is:
  -We do not save the logs to archive via RMAN. for example: backup of the list of the archivelog all; gives "specification does not match backups in the repository.
  -We set the archive_lag_target so archiving logs is produced every 30 minutes.
  -a cron job running on a remote server runs periodically to synchronize data (rsync server) the directory of archives with a remote control.
  -daily archive logs on the server host are bzip. Purge of these newspapers is scheduled for more than 3 days rman 'window of recovery '.
  
  I'm interested in feedback as to if our strategy around archiving logs is correct or not.
  
  Should we be backup logs archiving via RMAN? Are there potential problems with our approach?
  We just kept our backups in this way the DBA in the past want to see newspapers archived as opposed to it while a backupset.
  
  Curious to know what others are doing.

  Hello

  Welcome to OTN!

  Archivelogs with RMAN backup is a better option. When the archives are supported by RMAN, RMAN would be aware of the backup items which are required at the time of the recovery archives. You don't have to do it manually.

  On the disk space, you can delete the archives once they were saved by RMAN.

  RMAN > delete any backup archivelog entry;

  This supports the archivelogs and then remove the archives from the disk.

  If you have a dataguard configured, you can set the deletion policy 'applied on Eve', which removes the archives as and when they are applied to the database ensures there by the management of disk space again.

  RMAN > configure archivelog political of deletion to applied pending;

• Tungsten T3 - need to DAT file access with address - please help

  I have an old Palm Tungsten T3. The desktop computer with the address information synchronized died and the T3 has lost power (so no more addresses).

  I have a. Backup DAT files with all my addresses. Can someone tell how can I have access to these.

  Palm Desktop 4.1.4e reinstalling did not help because it does not allow me to import. DAT files.

  Can I import this file into any other application or open in Excel etc.?

  Any advice would be much appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  You must physically copy the .dat file in the directory of the user on the existing address.dat file.  Find the one with your short hotsync name (i.e. - C:/Program Files/Palm (or PalmOne) / name of your Hotsync/address) and copy the .dat file.

  Make sure that you copy the file and keep another a safe in the case where something goes wrong.  The existing empty address.dat file will be only about 2 k in size.

  Good luck!

• Automatically deleted from the storage of the DSO after data files using the command cp ASMCMD... why?

  I installed Oracle database on Linux 6.6, Virtualbox 11.2.0.1.0.

  I used ASM for database storage.

  When I want to perform a backup in offline mode. I stop the database data files and copy to the filesystem as follows (for example).

  ASMCMD [+] > cp +DATA/ora11g/datafile/system.270.883592533/u01/app/oracle

  The files copied with success and also any other data files, logs and controlfiles files. Then, I also rename all the files in editing mode.

  After that, I used the backup files to start the oracle of backup (storage non - ASM with new pfile edited)

  Open successfully from a backup database.

  But when I want to use old spfile to open the database for the storage of the DSO again, a few errors have occurred as no data files in ASM storage.

  I check the contents of the ASM storage with ASMCMD commands. And realize that there only spfile and controlfile located ASM storage and other files: data files and online redo logfiles automatically deleted.

  Why the data files and log files deleted ASM storage? Is this normal? I have no delete all files of the DSO.

  It is actually deleted from the use of the cp command?

  Exactly what we say.  Data in ASM files are OMF (Oracle managed files).  The RENAME translates the DSO by deleting the original file.

• Incomplete data file recovery

  Hello
  
  I use oracle database 10g (10.2.0.10) in RHEL5. I want to make a point in time recovery a backup data file. Through RMAN, I published the following command
  
  RMAN > run {}
  2 > sql ' alter session set nls_date_format = "dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss";
  3 > set until that time August 21, 2011 13:04 ';
  4 > restore datafile 4;
  5 > recover datafile 4;
  6 > alter database open resetlogs ;}
  
  But RMAN made a full recovery. Yet once again, I deleted the data file and restore the backup data file. Now, I wrote the following at the SQL prompt
  
  SQL > alter session set nls_date_format = 'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss ";
  Modified session.
  SQL > recover datafile ' / u01/app/oracle/oradata/ORATESTDB/datafile/o1_mf_users_751h7fmh_.dbf' until August 21, 2011 13:04 ';
  ORA-00274: illegal until recovery option
  
  It displays the above error. But I am able to perform incomplete recovery of the complete database using RMAN same as above.
  
  Done datafile point-in-time recovery is not possible? or is there something wrong in my approach?
  
  Kind regards
  
  007

  A data file can be recovered to a point in time which is incosistent with the rest of the database.
  (why? Data integrity! A table with several extensions that can cover several data files. You can't have some scopes with data from 12:05 and other extensions into another file of data retrieved using data from 10:05! Even if it's a single datafile tablespace, you will violate referential integrity (whether or not they are applied) If, say, the SALES table has entries until 12:05, but the SALES_LINES table has entries until 10:05!)

  You can make a Tablespace recovery time by using an auxiliary Instance and then copy the tablespace back. You must maintain integrity.
