We are experiencing this weird problem basically, we had oracle
enterprise manager that was sitting on one of our server but for some
reason we had to drop our repository. We have created the new
repository on new box and scheduled the backup on appropriate time.
After that we uninstalled the oracle from the old box completely, but
now for some reason the backups are still running from old server
which is weird and I don't see any lint that's still there on our old
server.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Matthias Hoys

Is there still a cron job running on the old server maybe ?

Thanks for replying. I don't think so we have anything left that says
oracle on that box but I double check just to make sure we don't have
any cron jobs that's sitting there on old server. Do you know where
should check for these type jobs? sorry for the silly question but I'm
newbie to oracle.

BTW, We're using oracle 9.2.0.7 with Windows server 2003 EE R2 SP2
across the board.

Thanks,

If it's Windows, there won't be any cron jobs, that's UNIX specific :-) But
you could check the Windows Task Scheduler (or at command) on your Windows
server. Should be under Control Panel -> Scheduled Tasks. And run "at" from
a command prompt.

No I'm not seeing any type of automated scheduled tasks in that
server. Is there any configuration change that we have to do in RMAN
in order to reflect it to new OEM repository?

Thanks,

I'm not quite getting it, how can you tell that the backups are still
running from old server?

Here is what's happening:

In old EM we had backups going at 2AM. Generally, it takes 30-40 mins
to finish the backup.
In new EM we have backups going starting at 3AM. Now when new EM tries
to write the backup file it fails b'coz of insufficient disk space
which is b'coz the old EM still writes the backup file and finishes
the backup by 2.40AM.

Please say how you checked. Did you check all possible threads? Or
just look at services. I'm not generally on Windows, so I'm a bit
rusty on how it works, but I recall there are utilities for checking
threads (and explanations in various places). I suspect there is some
spawned thread that you are missing. Perhaps the answer is in looking
very carefully through the registry, especially for things that you
think you've uninstalled. Have you restarted this box since removing
everything?
