1. Weather data archives for the alps?

a history of the last 45 winters at http://www.cnrm.meteo.fr/icam2007/html/PROCEEDINGS/ICAM2007/extended/manuscript_202.pdf not climate data, but a start could always try the Meteo France site, maybe email someone there http://www.meteofrance.com/

2. New Laptop. How do I transfer all IM data (contacts, archives, etc.) from old to new.?

You shouldn't have to transfer your contacts...but I don't think you can transfer archives.

3. What are the different solutions (Hardware Software) for data archiving?

Best prices... . Archiving is an expensive part of data safety if you intend to do it right. If you just want backups of your data, copy them to optical disks. This would be the cheapest. The best archiving would be to have an external drive (s) and the program to perform this task. You can also hire an online archiving service for a monthly fee.

4. What is the best media format to archive data?

I would agree, right now dvd is a safe medium especially for the cost. Every other option is more expensive. Here is how the media stack up: Recordable optical disk (DVD and CDR's) - 7 to 15 Years Magnetic Disks (Hard Drives) - 30 to 50 Years Solid State Memory (thumb drives) - 10 to 12 Years Basically, if you have 100 bucks available get a usb hard drive, if not DVD's should work fine. Also, according to PC world the quality of the media does affect the lifespan so dont buy the cheapest dvd's

5. What are the problems if data is not archived?

7. What is the advantage of archiving data on tape drives versus hard drives?

Tape drives can store a large amount of data that can be easily removed from the premises. In a good backup plan, you remove the backup media from the backup location. I had personal experience when our data center was hit by a tornado. If the tapes were left in the building, they would have been destroyed along with the building. But I had the most recent tapes with me. Tapes are also relatively inexpensive. I routinely replace my backup tapes to insure reliability. With my backup plan, tapes are rotated daily, having a tape for every day of the week. Every month I take my oldest tape and use it for an archive. This tape is replaced with a new tape. The archive tape is stored in a vault off the premises. My tape backups are done nightly, after hours. The backup program has the additional options to backup open files, SQL databases, and Microsoft Exchange server. Doing tape backups during business hours would place too much load on my servers. After hours, very few, if anyone is on the system, so who cares how long it takes or how much load is in the servers, as long as the system is back to normal when users start logging on in the morning. Hard drives are faster, but you would need a removable drive for every day of the week. These are bulkier than tapes. They are more fragile and expensive than tapes also. I have seen hard drives destroyed when dropped from only a few feet. But tapes can be more sensitive to temperature, so each has advantages and disadvantages here. Whatever backup plan you select, you should routinely test it. I will occasionally restore some files, just to make sure the backup is working. I have personally seen more than once where someone thought they were diligently making daily backups, only to find that none of the data on the backup media was useful. Ouch

8. I am transfering data to a new hd. Is there any way I can save and transfer my yIM archives? Dave?

Yep. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\Profiles\[your local account]\Archive and copy both the conferences and messages folders. Once you reload Yahoo Messenger, just put them back in the same spot. I've done it twice with no problems whatsoever.

10. Question about data archiving and recovery?

Paul, that will depend on the NAU's backup archive policy. Every network admin worth their salt has some form of data backup. But for college student user accounts, I doubt seriously they'd have them going back several years ago. Still, nothing ventured nothing gained. Go on the NAU site and see if you can even log in with your old user name and password. If you can, you might still have the original email in the sent folder. If you can't, call (don't email) the school's IT department and explain your dilemma. If nothing else, they will be able to tell you how far back their backups go. But unless you've done very well and have ***major*** bucks to donate to the alumni fund ;-), I doubt they'll go thru the hassle of a restore it for a 20th century era game. I know this is a Duh! question, but have you tried a Yahoo or Google search on the game?

12. How do I delete data on a cd-r?

Scratch the surface of the CD with a sharp object. Scuffing it on concrete is also very effective. There are also shredders for CDs. Don't use an ordinary paper shredder though! BTW, formatting a floppy wasn't a good way to delete data. Until the floppy was overwritten, the data was still there.

17. What is the use of MySQL Data Archiving?

Archiving data can speed up your applications because it gets data that is never used out of the DB. So, for example, if you have an application that searches for email addresses and you have 10k records in your DB, say you do a search for all @aol.com email addresses...it has to search through all 10k records everytime. If you know there are a bunch of records in there that are really old and not necessarily needed but you don't want to completely delete it you can archive it to get it out of the main DB and it won't be included in searches and other similar apps.

18. I've been on AOL for many years. Time to switch to another dial-up vendor. How to save all archive data?

According to the News many users are leaving AOL. Yesterday it was announced that AOL is laying off about 5,000 workers, so it seems many people are in your situation. I’ve been an AOL user in the past and for many years. In fact, I was using AOL back when I was on an Apple ][ computer. I have used up to version 6, but only for a short period. The problem with AOL is that everything is proprietary and their data can’t be ported outside of AOL. AOL software is a world all its own and that is why I moved away from it. As an IT professional there have been many severe headaches for my department with users installing AOL on work computers. To me AOL is no better than a computer virus. So, even though I’ve not been an AOL subscriber for years I still have the unpleasant task of having to deal with it from time to time. Of course, you should still be able to access your AOL mail free when you switch to a different ISP, but anything else AOL is AOL exclusively…unfortunately.

19. Why BaaN Data Archiving should be used in the enterprises?

20. Are CDs more reliable than DVDs for data archiving?

Since CDs aren't as densely-packed with data, they are less susceptable to scratches (both on the polycarbonite and label sides) than DVDs and especially Blu-Rays. The shelf life is roughly the same due to similar design, so there is no difference as long as the media are stored in a safe environment where scratches, dust, hair, and excessive moisture, aren't a big factor.
