Yes that populates the database with data. But it doesn't work unless the DB is setup first. I.E. the appropriate tables are created in the database where the data is put via the ODBC connection.. Gerald Wichmann Systems Engineer Sansia System Solutions 408-844-8893 work 408-884-980

TDP for Oracle

2000-11-29 Thread Gerald Wichmann
Josh, In a round about way you could restore the Oracle DB to a 2nd machine, do an export on the table you want to recover, and import it into the production machine. I know that s painful and similar to getting a mailbox using the TDP for exchange but it s doable. Gerald Wichmann Systems

Re: TDP for Oracle Question

Josh, To my knowledge no.. RMAN doesn't support it. At least not directly. There might be a round about way of doing it though.. Gerald Wichmann -Original Message- From: Joshua S. Bassi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2000 5:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Su

Client Code Level

2000-10-30 Thread Gerald Wichmann
What combinations of client/server code are acceptable? Is it ok to run 4.1.1 client code and backup to a 3.7.x server? Is it ok to run 3.7.x client code and 4.1.x server code? I guess itÂ’s a two-fold question. What is supported by Tivoli? What works in practice?
