Windows backup - Some Confusion over the Date of backup

I have back up once a week on Removable Drive L:

When we look at control panel > backup and restore, I see that my last backup was on January 3, 2011, as planned.  I also see that three files have not been saved because backup Windows could not find them.  No problem.

When I look at the Drive: Explorer > computer > l: However, I don't see that the folder that contains the backup is dated 12/26/2010 under "update."  I remember correctly, is that it is all the time that I turned on my backup to a C: partition on my removable disk L:, probably create this folder on the first backup on removable disk L:

As time passes, the backup on L: folder should not reflect the date of the last backup?  How can I know that the backup works (see other than the correct data in the control panel > Backup and Restore)?

Here are the results: right click on the inf file: containing the backup (the file displays the "Save" icon), then the properties > Previous Versions shows no available versions.  Properties > general tab shows the typical parameters of a file; e.g., size of 0 bytes, date of creation, etc.

Because it is a folder, there are no properties > Details tab.

Dating back to the control panel > Backup and Restore > manage space, I see that two backups are stored in the inf file: Reader corresponsding for scheduled backups performed two since I have configured backup for this drive.  Everything seems normal.

On further reflection, it seems that Windows 7 works normally, because the "Date Modified" column in Explorer mode don't not one) that reflects the changes made to existing files in a folder root or additons b) new files/folders in a folder root were made; rather the 'modified date' refers only to the changes that could be made to the properties of the folder root after its creation that is, in terms of sharing, security, etc.

Since Windows 7, at least, you have no control over the name of the backup that is created and used for the backup folder, and there is (apparently) no exception to the general rule of Windows about how the "Date Modified" column is - at least in the case of backups - it seems that a user is more or less in "trust me". , rely solely on the information available in the control panel > restore and backup to determne if the backup does not work (other than to do a restore of your time immediately after the backup, not a good idea).

I guess that the preschoolers old like me just feel more comfortable using the Explorer to display the properties for the actual backup file and see the date of creation.

Maybe a suggestion that might be implemented in next SP?

  • Confusion over the link with ColdFusion 8

    I'm a little confused on the BIND methodologies to do what I do (and I'm sure we can do).

    I have a series of two RADIO for option 1 (let's say option 1 A of the value and the value B) and another series of two RADIO for option 2 (say option 2 A and B of value value) (see my code included).

    I want to make is that the user is selected, option 1-A, I selected option 2-A and vice versa; If the user selects option 2-A, the system should automatically, choose the 1.-a option. It also works for option 1-B with 2-B option.

    I hope that I am clear in my question. Otherwise, feel free to let me know.

    I'm sorry for the confusion, but maybe I'm too deeply reflective about the BIND because what I wanted to do can be easily done with JavaScript!

    OnClick on the CFINPUT RADIO can call a JS function to check and control what to see on the other set of options.

    One day, we receive more on our shoulders and the result is that our brain get confused! ;-))

  • "Backup and restore" in Windows 7 saves nothing, except the data files?

    I want to save my 'Favorites' of internet list, messages stored in Live mail and my address book in Live mail.  It seems that the "Backup and restore" function in Windows 7 saves only data files unless you choose the option of system image, and then it is not yet clear and seems to save much larger files that I could put on a DVD.

    Can someone direct me to information on this topic or suggest a better method of simple backup.

    By default, Windows 7 saving files in libraries and folders for all users.  That includes everything in your user folder: data applications, contacts, desktop, downloads, Favorites, music, photos, documents, etc..  Windows Live Mail stores messages in the application data folder, so they are automatically backed up.

    The system image contains everything on your computer.

    Both types of backup can create more data that a DVD can hold.  I recommend that you get an external drive for backups. Owner, Boulder computer Maven

  • Confused over the upgrades and full versions for Windows 8 on a virtual machine

    Hello

    I am wanting to legally install Windows 8 or 8.1 on a virtual computer. When I look at the Microsoft pages only, they seem to offer Windows 8 one update and I can't find a way to the purchase of a previous version either. Is anyone able to point me to an explanation in plain English what I should buy.

    Thanks for your help.

    If you need to install Windows 8 in a virtual machine, you must purchase the full version of license OEM System Builder. If you need to install Windows 8.1 in a virtual machine, you can buy the license of retail sales (which is a full version) or OEM System Builder License.

  • Confusion over the memory of a bunch of Java and WLS_FORMS

    Hi all

    Background first:

    Oracle Forms/Reports 11.1.2 64-bit
    WebLogic Server 10.3.6
    JDK 1.6 update 37 64-bit
    Microsoft Windows 2008 R2
    Using nodemanager to start/stop the servers managed

    After reading all the documentation and searched this forum and the Internet for advice, I'm still totally confused about how best to make use of memory on the server (the server I'm working now on a 8 GB). Two trains of thought that I discovered in my research:

    (1) do not change the size of Javaheap at all (stick with the default values) and just create additional managed servers on the same machine.

    (2) increase the size of the heap Java for WLS_FORMS

    That said, here are my questions:

    (A) what is the best practice approach (#1 or #2)?

    (B) if it is the #2, what is the approved way to increase the heap size? I tried to add - Xms and arguments - Xmx to the WLS server begin arguments in the WLS console. They are applied when the managed server is started (confirmed in the log file), but because of the way WLS_FORMS is started, there are more - Xms and arguments - Xmx applied after mine, and peaks of Java one last mention if there are duplicates.

    1st update: Question #2 seems to be answered by the support notes 1260074.1 (the only place I had not yet looked at)

    Thanks for any idea that you can provide. If there is a document that I missed somewhere, I'm happy to be told where it is, and will read and summarize the results here.

    Kind regards

    John

    John,

    I'll try to comment on each of your own:

    (1) we had been make some type errors "Unable to contact forms Apache Server" (users see the error "Failed to bridge APACHE server"). The logs showed nothing interesting. I increased the memory allocated using setDomainEnv.cmd, and the error seems to have disappeared. Yes, I know it's a shotgun approach, try something without really having a reason to do it, but it seems to have helped Edit: now I have review of OHS logs instead of WLS_FORMS newspapers, I found the log messages, which brings me to Doc 1380762.1, who tells me that I need a patch. DOH. Oh crikey, forms 11.1.2.1 is out and it came out shortly after that we have downloaded 11.1.2.0 to create these environments. Good and the bad new kind of thing...

    The Apache Bridge error is relatively in line toward the front if you understand what it is say you. It is an error generated by mod_wl_ohs which is the property of SST (Apache). This module is responsible for the relationship between OSH and WLS. The Apache bridge error means that OSH (mod_wls) has been unable to get a response from the managed server WLS he called. Basically, he was unable to cross the bridge ;) The cause could be anything from the managed server does work not, management server is busiest, or there is a problem of network configuration and the server simply didn t hear appeal of OSH.

    It is all described in Note 1304095.1 MOS

    Regarding 11.1.2.1, this can be installed fresh or as a patch on 11.1.2.0. So for machines which currently installed, you can go directly to 11.1.2.1 without having to first install 11.1.2.0.


    .

    (2) as tony.g suggested, we are looking for what we should do to solve them "I have n servers with x GB of RAM, what should I do to configure out-of-the-box forms for stability" issue.

    As I said, there is really no 'forms' specific settings associated with how much RAM your machine has. The only exception to this is (although a little indirect) to use the grouping of the JVM. JVM pooling can reduce the size of each execution process memory footprint by moving his calls from java to the pool of the jvm, then common queries of sharing with the other running execution environments. Memory, use of OSH or WLS managed server really has nothing to do directly with the forms. Specifically to the managed server, from a perspective of forms, I would not expect the cost of memory of WLS_FORMS spending a large part due to the workload. I'm expecting increase as the simultaneous load increases, but I would not expect it to be significant. If I had to guess, see an increase of 1 m or less per user wouldn't surprise me (that's just a guess - I don't know what would be the expected values). If we were to use our older scalability guidelines (Oracle), usually we would have suggested that you should consider about 100 sessions by 1 FMV for better performance. Given that v11 uses a newer version of java and scalability is better today, I suspect that you can easily spend a couple of hundred (300 for example) or more before the performance decreases. In addition, the need to add more managed servers would be probably necessary.

    This is discussed in Note 989118.1 MOS


    .

    (3) HA is important to us, so we set up a cluster of servers of forms/States with a BLT in front of her. I read in the literature on the management of clusters, cloning of a managed server and with the support, how to increase the memory heap for the WLS_FORMS server. My thought process was 'If Oracle gives me instructions on how to increase the heap memory and how clone managed servers, there must be a scenario in which do have advantage." I'm trying to understand the scenarios in which we would do either of these activities.

    Refer to the note that I mentioned above. As a general rule, if you limit the number of simultaneous sessions less than about 300-400, I think the default settings should be fine. If you think you want to go beyond 300 or 400 per managed server, then probably you need to increase the heap the managed server max. Yet once again, refer to the note that I mentioned earlier.

    See also Note 1260074.1 MOS


    .

    I am aware of the JVM pooling (Yes yell us reports) - I still have to this implementation, but it is on my to-do list.

    This is discussed in the [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E38115_01/doc.111210/e24477/jvm.htm]Forms Deployment Guide

  • Preferance pane window keeps popping open when the data entry or search in all fields. I'm also using 1Password and happens when you try to enter a password

    I'm running on Mac OS X 10.7.4, Firefox 14.0.1. This problem did not exist until this last update of Firefox. Basically, a preferences panel opens each time data is entered in a field. It doesn't seem to be the same preferences panel you see when you open preferences through normal access Firefox, IE. Firefox > Preferences. All the choices listed in this special preference pane are specific to Firefox. I have a screenshot that I could include if wanted. When you use the pane appears when you enter a search in the search bar near the address bar of 1Password the task pane opens, when entering data in any field because I am now filling in this report in detail pane also appears. It's pretty boring. Any advice? I will try systematically to leave any add-ons and see if that makes a difference. I have ave tried to do a reinstall without result.

    Isn't it always the case if you disable the other extension except 1Password?

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance/themes).

    If this does not work in mode without failure, then disable all extensions and then try to find out who is the cause by allowing both the problem reappears.

    • Choose "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe Mode to set window to disable all extensions.
    • Close and restart Firefox after each change through "file > exit ' (Mac: ' Firefox > leave";) Linux: "file > exit ')
  • Clear up the confusion over the name of the motherboard

    I ordered an upgrade of CPU hoping that it is compatible with my motherboard. I fell into a riddle because of unclear and defective data on the HP Web site.

    (1) Pegatron M2N58 - East named as (Narra 5)... and elsewhere on the page 6 of narrated GL6... well who is?

    AMD Phenom II X 4 830, which is not yet on the site of AMD's processor that I ordered.

    Different sites show different compatibility...

    According to the support page for my PC... as long as it takes in charge the Am2 + and TDP of 95 watts... it will be a game

    However, mistakes are confusing... and I'd like to see if anyone has this combo works?

    Thank you

    You are welcome.

    It seems to be a good match.  However, you're dealing with a 5 year and plu motheboard and a newer processor.  It is not always a good script for success.  The key is to be extremely careful when installing.  Make sure you add enough compound/thermal paste to ensure it will work cool.  If damage you it, needless to say, you cannot return it.

    Good luck!  I hope it works for you.  I'd be happy to hear the result.

  • Loss of confusion concerning the data on the virtual disk in VMWare

    The evening

    Excuse the amateurism, but I'm looking for help with a problem I have with a virtual machine.

    I created a Virtual Machine with a virtual disk of fixed size for use as a LAMP (in this case, Ubuntu 9.10) development environment. I have used this in the course of nearly a year and have taken quarterly snapshots, or before, I did something stupid to the BONE. So far we five snapshots and a clone that I got a month ago.

    Recently, I created an another VM to install the configuraiton of LIGHT even on Ubuntu 10.04 (I wanted a new installation).  I didn't know it was a bad idea in time, so I created a second disk on the VM 10.04 and mounted the main drive of the virtual machine 9.04. Obviously, 10.04 altered the disc somehow, as I had received the "+ the Ramdisk parent has changed since the child was.

    created. + "error every time I tried to start it.

    After several unsuccessful attempts to try to find a recent clone, I created a new virtual machine and up from 9.04 virtual disk. However, from the start of this virtual machine, I went back to, what I believe to be, the first State of the virtual machine before snapshots. However, it is also possible that I lost the correct VM while trying to find a recent clone (of course, I hope it's a snapshot problem and not a problem of stupidity).

    My question is, is - it possible that the disc that I mounted does not take into account my snapshots?

    See http://sanbarrow.com/vmdk-errors.html#e4 for an explanation of the error and some tips how to fix it.

    If in doubt ask before doing anything more that could "destroy" the disc.

  • Incompatible control file and the data after the backup files

    The company that I work has servers where some components are new more, so have a backup in the event of hardware failure. If we intend to do some clones of 1:1 of the current servers to change them in case of emergency. As most of the necessary data is not volatile and we reset stuff in any case, there is no need of replicaton, replace an old version of the database works very well. Now we could not easily get substitutes for our old material, so we had to set up new machines. And that's where my trouble starts, because now I had to actually set up the system and the database rather than do a simple copy of byte to byte. I'm mainly a programmer, using Oracle of 'other' side, but as our DBA is yet to come and the work must be done now...

    So I did some reasearch and decided to do a normal backup of the cold. I have dumped the controlfile, copied data and configuration files to the new server and read the prompt SQL (no mistake there) control file. After some initial hiccups with the system (memory, etc.), I was finally about to start the database, only to get an error ORA-01190 ("1 database or control file is from before the last RESETLOGS").

    I guess I did is a bad thing when you restart the database (used the wrong part of the control file) or when the copy of the data. The original data have split two readers for simplicity and logical, I copied their entire contents. So maybe I don't not copied to little but too?

    As I said in the introductory paragraph, I'm not a DBA, but I'm willing to learn and listen. I don't expect a complete solution, but some guidelines when to look and what to avoid. Any help on this would be appreciated.

    Currently, there are some points need clarification,

    1. you don't need to re-create the control file, if you have a clean shutdown database and copied all the files at the same time (data files, control files etc.)

    2. If you stop DB, copied files of data but do not copy the control at shutdown file, you must re-create the control file.

    3. the error ORA-19909 suggested you resetlog prior to recovery.

    ORA-19909: string data file belongs to an orphan incarnation
    Cause: The data file specified has been restored from a backup that was taken during a period of time that has already been abandoned by a resetlogs operation or Oracle cannot identify what incarnation of database file belongs. The alert log contains more information.
    Action: Restore a backup of this file that belongs to the current or a previous incarnation of the database. If you use RMAN to restore, RMAN automatically selects a good backup.

    4. it would be better that again follow you from scratch the article.

    for example,.

    Copy the files you did copy over the data base to the bottom of the old server,
    modify the control file creation script

    RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE;
    ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;

  • Comparing converted text until then with the Date column

    I have a question where I need out of a text column in a date format and then compare this column against another column in the same table, which is already to date format. I tried to use a sub query to avoid doing this in two steps, but get a:

    "ORA-01858' a non-digit character was found here where was waiting for digital"

    error message that obviously has something to do with the date formatting in the subquery: the types do not match.

    Note: clock_num is a text column and contains the numbers are supposed to be dates like 070111 - where the need for conversion to a date type to match the stat_date which is the type of date column. I have no control over the data in this column. It is not my picture, is the picture of the society and I have to use!

    So my question is what syntax/function should I use to get the type of expression clock_nbr the type of eff_date.

    Or y at - it another way to do the same thing without using subquery?

    Any help is appreciated...

    SELECT
    me. SSN,
    Of
    member_enroll me
    WHERE me.ssn = '999999999'
    AND me.stat_date <
    (SELECT to_date (substr (me.clock_num, 1, 2) |)) » /' || substr (me.clock_num, 3, 2) | '/' || substr(me.clock_num,5,2), 'mm-DD-yy') as clock_nbr
    OF member_enroll me
    WHERE me.ssn = '999999999')

    I have no experience with PL/SQL Developer. Any chance you could launch SQL * more and copy / paste of a session where you run this code?

    You should only run the DDL to create the function once. If the second query runs, you have managed to successfully create the function. My hypothesis is that whatever 'window SQL' you are talking about and what you mean by 'run' is the cause only the function must be created. Most of the IDEs have a function to execute current SQL statement, without taking into account other statements that can be registered in the same window, and a separate function to execute all instructions in the current window. Different iDEs have different requirements to separate several SQL statements if you want to run all of the SQL statements in a window. You may need to do something like the added statement a / after the CREATE FUNCTION as a separator.

  • problems with the date picker

    I found some problems with the date picker to make my first presentation of object BPM.

    I created a group with a datetimestamp it contains. When I click on it in run mode, it will bring a new tab in the browser. This behavior is different from that of a date picker outside a group where there just a small javascript popup.

    Anyway around this problem?

    Also, would be nice if could be set by default to the current date. is there a way to who?

    For the component "time" it seems impossible to define the default value - at least on the tab object structure.

    Thank you

    Try to set the property "DHTML" to control date Yes. This option is under the Properties tab-> the calendar section. This will force it to use the popup javascript on screen instead of opening a new browser window/tab.

    To set a default value for a date/time, you can simply set the value in the constructor of the BPM object in which the property is located.

  • Scattered all over the hard drive downloads

    Trying to gain some control over the download process; I always put Firefox 'always ask me where to save files. For the first half of the life of FF that worked perfectly well. Save a file that is brought to the top of the corresponding dialog box, showing the location that I lasted sauvΘs and asking if I wanted to re-use that one.

    I can see how that might be a concern of privacy on a shared computer, such as the list of recently used files that comes with so many applications, but it has never been a concern for me.

    What bug the absolute $% & % $& % hell out of me is that FF now appears most goddawful of random places as suggestions. No matter hoe, I always use the same folder, FF suggests places that are literally everywhere in the hard disk without detectable rhyme or reason. I waited patiently for the development team correct everything they did to make FF cannot perform this simple operation he was quite able to reach with an apparent ease at least as far as his Phoenix days. But, alas, the output ' Let's Break everything "of the week schedule has never solved the problem.

    What gives? Someone at - it a fix for the problem? I know that there are affecting a lot of people just longer because I have heard the complaints.

    I added the Boolean preference. I wasn't sure if she would take effect without rebooting or not. Of course, I had not too long to wait... Crash-O-Matic pulled on plan and gave him the restart that he may or may not have needed.

    I used some time now and have not had the problem again. I will temporarily call this one resolved.

    Thank you, man. You can't imagine how crazy this thing driving me for how long.
