Is there a way in Azure Resource manager to take a copy of an existing database? Currently I know there is a database import option, which points to a bacpac file in Blob Storage and creates a new database from that file, but the process to create the file is a manual one at this point. With that, what is the current process to create bacpacs and put them in Blob storage in an automated way through ARM?
There is a way to specify the createMode of your database in the ARM template. This is very undocumented stuff but I found this in the REST api documentation and then just tried in the ARM template.
You can specify the properties "createMode" and "sourceDatabaseId".
I am not using this functionality because the sourceDatabaseId needs to be in the same subscription which was not the case with me. So i export the bacpac manually and then use an ARM template to import the bacpac (which also is undocumented but I commented the ARM template used here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/sql-database-import/)

I am novices to the field of Identity and Access management.
Till now I know, Sail point has provided the some direct connectors to integrate the known systems like LDAP, HR systems, OIM, Databases..
And sailpoint also provided the support for disconnected applications with the use of Custom connectors.
Here, My question is how to develop a custom connector..?
I do not have jar file provided by sailpoint which contain "AbstractConnector" class.
So that I can write my own class and develop..?
I also so not understand, what to do with that class?(if i have a jar)
How sailpoint will refer to that class..
Do we need to deploy that class to somewhere...
Here I am expecting the complete flow to develop and deploy the custom connector..
If anyone is working please help..
If you unzip your identityiq.war, you'll find a JAR file called WEB-INF/lib/connector-bundle.jar. This is the JAR where you'll find AbstractConnector. Once you've written your connector code, you will need to compile it and bundle it into a JAR file, which you will place into WEB-INF/lib.
Finally, you will need to update the ConnectorRegistry object (under Configuration on the debug screen) to reference the new class, which will make it available as an Application type. If it has custom connection parameters (as most do), you will also need an xhtml page that will be embedded into the Sailpoint UI to prompt the user configuring the Application.
If you have Compass access, they have a whitepaper called Custom Connectors that you will find helpful.
All that said, I encourage you to try to find a way to use an out-of-box connector if possible.
Most of the times it will be better if you use the DelimitedFile connector, you can import a CSV of identity data, and make it work within Sailpoint's workflow. You will be able to map fields, correlate accounts and create multi-valued group memberships rapidly. Of course, this means that Sailpoint will not be connected directly to the application, and you will have to develop a workflow to extract the identities and upload them. But at least, you can integrate without going the Custom Connector way.
we have to export alfresco data and import into another repository, and not necessarily backup/restore process. we are aiming for script which can be run and extract data on some conditions, set of files, with all its metedata.
i have got below link, which talks about same, but it is old , and things cant be done like versions of the file, condition based extract.
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/cn/xml/x-cmis2/index.html
i would like to know any approaches available for extract and import of the alfresco data into other repositories..
There is nothing out-of-the-box that will do this. The replication sub-system is not suitable for frequent replication of more than a small handful of nodes.
So, you will have to write a custom solution or look at third-party solutions that can do this. Simflofy is one example. Another example is the Parashift Alfstream module.
If you would like to develop this yourself, I suggest you do something like:
Write code to export one or more files to the file system. This should be storage that is shared between the source and all target repositories.
Alongside each file, write a "manifest" file that descries the file's metadata, including custom properties and property values. You should use the same format that the Bulk File System Import Tool expects when doing an import.
Add a message to a queue that describes where the exported data is sitting and where it needs to be imported.
In the target repository, write a listener that is subscribe to the queue.
When the listener gets a message it can initiate a Bulk File System Import in the target system. The BFSIT will import the files and set the metadata as described in the manifest file you generated in Step 2.
Optionally, the target system can place another message on the queue acknowledging that the import has been performed, which the source repo can then pick up to complete the task.
Some people have been successful using Apache Camel for this, but it is not strictly necessary.
I'm just curious about the default key-value usage.
import {Storage, SqlStorage } from 'ionic-angular';
let storage = new Storage(SqlStorage);
storage.set(key, value);
storage.get(key).then((value) => { ... });
Where can I find the sqlite file(s)?
I assume I will be able to read/write outside of the app; is that true? Honestly I'm only interested for debugging reasons, so it would be okay if I can only have read access, and only after the app is closed. And I particularly interested on my desktop during development (as opposed to on a device). Do I have to use the backup file option and specify my own path for the database in order to do that?
the documentation states it is stored to WebSQL unless you have installed the SQLite Plugin
First few lines of the documentation...
http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/api/platform/storage/SqlStorage/
The default database file name within the app storage folder will be '__ionicstorage' per the source here:
https://github.com/driftyco/ionic/blob/f477aa2391922a399acde23bf50ff095b12a287d/src/storage/sql.ts
I have doubt regarding windows phone 8 application development. The database using sqlite for windows phone 8 is pre-loaded into the application or it should be created dynamically at the time of installation in windows phone..? and if it is pre-loaded then how to create the database.db file..?? and also if it is dynamically created, what is the procedure to create dynamically...??
I would say, pre-loaded into the application is the very common way.
Take a look at this article, I think the steps to accomplish your task are quite the same: http://wp.qmatteoq.com/import-an-already-existing-sqlite-database-in-a-windows-8-application/
The first step is to copy your database in to the Visual Studio project and, from the Properties window, set the Build action to Content.
Once you’ve done this operation, you’ll be able to access to the files embedded in your project thanks to the Package.Current.InstalledLocation object that is available in the Windows.ApplicationModel namespace.
The InstalledLocation’s type is StorageFolder, which is the base class of all the folders mapping in WinRT: for this reason, it exposes all the standard methods to interact with the storage, like getting a file or a folder. This way we can use the GetFileAsync method to get a reference to the database embedded into the project and, after that, using the CopyAsync method we can copy it into the local storage of the application. We can copy it in the root of the local storage (like in the following example) or in a specific folder, by getting a reference to it first using the GetFolderAsync method.
For those who are not able to work with sqlite I would like to suggest them to follow this link : http://dotnetslackers.com/articles/silverlight/Windows-Phone-7-Native-Database-Programming-via-Sqlite-Client-for-Windows-Phone.aspx and when you are dumping the data into the project .. you just need to change the properties of the "database1.sqlite" i.e. Build Action = resource . Thats all you need to do ..
Sorry, I'm a little unclear on the web2py manual explanation.
as an example, given app1 and app2
I want to have app2 share the database I have built in app1
So do I change the app2/models/db.py file to show: db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite',migrate='false') ?
and include all other myModel.py files in app2/models directory as well?
if the database is in app1/databases/ how does app2 know how to find the correct database file?
This Thread begins to answer the question but I'm still unclear on how to define where the shared database lives.
Note, DAL(..., migrate=False) just sets the default value of migrate for each table -- it will not have any effect on the migration status of tables whose define_table() calls include their own explicit migrate argument. If you want to completely disable migrations for an entire db connection (regardless of the individual define_table() calls), instead use:
DAL(..., migrate_enabled=False)
Also, to share model definitions between applications, rather than simply copying the model files, you could put the definitions in functions or classes within modules and then import the modules. Another option is to use auto_import:
DAL(..., auto_import=True)
Note, auto_import will import the field names and types, but it will not include DAL-specific attributes, such as validators and defaults, so its usage is somewhat limited.
I can't test this right now but the answer should be:
you can override the folder in the DAL:
So both apps should point to the same file.
(see the docs and this thread).
.
db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite',folder='path/to/app/databases')
yes, should need the model files in both apps too, otherwise the apps won't know how to access the db.
