Three Recommended Methods for Moving Files Between Unix and Windows Systems [26530]
Secure Copy; Shared Drives; Rsync
The methods of moving files between Unix and Windows fall into three categories, writes Sandra Henry-Stocker in ITWorld. These are secure copy; shared drives; and file synchronization. She focuses on scpl and sftp commands; Samba; and Rsync, respectively. In the secure copy category, Henry-Stocker prefers pscp, which she says "works like a charm." In the category of shared drives, the writer recommends Samba, an implementation of the SMB/CIFS networking protocols. Rsync appears to be a favorite of hers for its ability to copy only the changes to a particular file, working equally well in Unix and Windows, she reports.

DD EMC Data Domain Boost - Oracle RMAN Integration [26089]
Using EMC Data Domain systems to deduplicate Oracle database backups
Coupling EMC Data Domain's DD Boost with Oracle's native Recovery Manager (RMAN) utility is enabling DBAs to achieve advanced integration between EMC Data Domain deduplication storage systems and Oracle RMAN for faster, more efficient backup and recovery, writes Jerome M. Wendt in dcig.com. Using the solutions together eliminates the isolated storage islands that can result from using Oracle RMAN alone, Wendt contends, adding that, while Oracle RMAN could already backup directly to Data Domain systems using CIFS or NFS protocols, using DD Boost as the transport protocol instead of these protocols results in backups that are up to 50% faster.
