Problem while Creating Control files while Cloning the Oracle DB

Hi,
I am failrly new to Oracle Administration. I have got the task of cloning our Production database into a new machine. With the help of various articles found over the web I have followed the below mentioned steps
1)Executed the Alter database command for getting the control file copy.
2) Taken the Datafiles,Control and redo log files copies into the Target machine.
3) Copied the Pfile with the neccessary changes into the target machine.
4) Edited the Create Control file syntax (generated from step 1) and executed the same on the target machine.
Now the problem I face is that I get the following error while executing the create Control file syntax
a)ORA-01503 - Creation of Controlfile failed.
b) ORA-00219 - Required controlfile size 41760 exceeds max allowable size 20000.
I am really stuck. Both my machine configurations and O/S installed are the same.
Please advice me on how to Proceed... Thanking you all in advannce.
Rgds,

I am getting error while creating Control file for a fla file upoad in HANA

Hi Experts,
I am getting the following error when I try to create crtrol file for a flat file extraction in SAP HANA.
Could not execute 'import data into table P935718."COPATBL" from 'COPATBL.csv' record delimited by '\n' fields ...'
SAP DBTech JDBC: [257] (at 14): sql syntax error: incorrect syntax near "into": line 2 col 1 (at pos 14)
Here is the code I have used to create control file after I creating the table.
import data
into table P935718."COPATBL"
from 'COPATBL.csv'
    record delimited by '\n'
    fields delimited by ','
    optionally enclosed by '"'
error log 'P935718.COPATBL.err'
p935718 is my user ID, COPATBL is my table created, COPABL.CSV is a flat file.
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Guna

Hello,
guessing from the error message it looks that you are trying to execute "import data" as SQL command.
Please note that import data is NOT SQL command but it is syntax for control file. You need to create file with this syntax on server and then use command: IMPORT FROM '/<path>/<filename>.ctl'
In a shortcut:
1.- create comma separated CSV file with your data - <source cvs>.csv
2.- upload CVS file to HANA server
3.- create the control file <filename>.ctl:
import data
into table <schema>."<table name>"
from '<source cvs>.csv'
record delimited by '
fields delimited by ','
optionally enclosed by '"'
error log '<file name>.err'
4.- execute command:
IMPORT FROM '/<path>/<filename>.ctl'
Please check following threads:

Will HANA supports Bulkload

Error creating CONTROL FILE

I have a problem while installing 9iAS R2 on RH LInux 8.
When database configuration assistant starts during the installation of 9iAS infrastructure, it gives an error "Error creating CONTROL FILE" followed by many other errors.
Please help me out.
Zulqarnain

I had the same problem, but with RH9
To fix, I ran orapwd from the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory to create a password file called orapw. Then I moved this file to the directory where the configuration assistant complains it cannot find the file. Fixed. Obviously, just ignore the errors from the configuration assistant about the CONTROL FILE until it tells you the location of the file it is looking for.

hai asif,
solved my problem , with this doc
Oracle VM Server for SPARC (previously known as LDoms or Logical Domains) :
To set the number of VCPUs for a given Logical Domain (LDom), use the 'ldm(1M)' with the 'set-vcpu' option:
# /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm set-vcpu <number> <logical_domain>
For example to configure eight VCPUs for the Logical Domain named "ebs1":
# /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm set-vcpu 8 ebs1
Please review the Logical Domains Administration guide for detailed information.
Users can then revert the number of VPUs to the original or desired values as a post EBS install step.
thanks a lot..

Error while creating logical file using transaction FILE

Hello there,
I am facing an error while creating Logical File name definition using transaction FILE
This is the input which I'm trying to give
Logical file name: ZTEST

Physical file : ZTEST_1<DATE><TIME>.csv
Data format: ASC
Application area: BW
Logical path:ZTEST_1_DATAOUT
when I tried to save it throws me an error like ASSIGN_SUBSTRING_NOT_ALLOWED
Please help.

Hi,
Please check the OSS Notes :

SAP Note 1297989 - Short dump ASSIGN_SUBSTRING_NOT_ALLOWED
Hope this solves the problem.

Problem in creating control files

Hi
I am using oracle 9i
I want to import the excel sheet data into the database.
Please let me know how to create the control file for sql loader.
For that i created control file using the following code
set echo off ver off feed off pages 0
accept tname prompt 'Enter Name of Table: '
accept dformat prompt 'Enter Format to Use for Date Columns: '
spool &tname..ctl
select 'LOAD DATA'|| chr (10) ||
'INFILE ''' || lower (table_name) || '.dat''' || chr (10) ||
'INTO TABLE '|| table_name || chr (10)||
'FIELDS TERMINATED BY '','''||chr (10)||
'TRAILING NULLCOLS' || chr (10) || '('
from user_tables
where table_name = upper ('&tname');
select decode (rownum, 1, ' ', ' , ') ||
rpad (column_name, 33, ' ') ||
decode (data_type,
'VARCHAR2', 'CHAR NULLIF ('||column_name||'=BLANKS)',
'FLOAT', 'DECIMAL EXTERNAL NULLIF('||column_name||'=BLANKS)',
'NUMBER', decode (data_precision, 0,
'INTEGER EXTERNAL NULLIF ('||column_name||
'=BLANKS)', decode (data_scale, 0,
'INTEGER EXTERNAL NULLIF ('||
column_name||'=BLANKS)',
'DECIMAL EXTERNAL NULLIF ('||
column_name||'=BLANKS)')),
'DATE', 'DATE "&dformat" NULLIF ('||column_name||'=BLANKS)', null)
from user_tab_columns
where table_name = upper ('&tname')
order by column_id;
select ')'
from dual;
spool off
and after then i have written in the commond prompt like
C:\sqlldr username/password@host controlfile
then it is giving like this
Commit point reached - logical record count 1
Any Help?
Thank you

What does it say in the .log file?
What records are in the .bad file?
How many records in the data file - if 1 then it's all good.
Excel often puts column headings in the .csv file - you may need to SKIP the first record (look it up in the docs).
Don't hard code the filename into the control file - it's easier to do that when you load:
sqlldr u/p control=controlfile data=datafileRead carefully what FLOAT and DECIMAL mean. Unless you are dealing with binary datatypes (you aren't) you probably don't need these. Only DATE needs careful treatment.
Also, consider pulling the data in using an external table (if it is on the Oracle server already). Again, look it up in the docs - you'll still have to get the control definition right...

I've tried in both ways, and it's exactly the same: I get the error.
> If XP, have you installed the MS hotfix?
Windows is regularly updated through Windows Update.
> What's in your FM doc?
The document is based on some tables (it's a pricelist for our products), there are also some links to some .eps files (which are correctly displayed on screen, so the path is correct).
> Did it work before or has it changed and now errors out?
The file (or better the book made of about fifteen FM files) was created by someone else, on another PC. When I open it, I get the error. When I send my files to another person, he can create pdf files without any problem.
> Does it update without any errors?
Yes, I regularly update Framemaker without any error.
Thanks for your help!!

12c Create Control File for Entire CDB (CDB-root + PDBs)

Hi,
In 12c, I understand that there is a single redo log and a single control file for an entire CDB. My question is what datafiles should I use to create control file for the entire CDB. According to Managing Control Files, I suppose I should use all the datafiles (the result of query from CDB-Root: select name from v$datafile), but in practice, the control file creation process can only be successful when I use CDB-Root databfiles. Thanks in advance for any advice.

The actual error message is duplicate tablespace (system, sysaux), but the root-CDB and PDBs should have separate system and sysaux. The following is the script I used.
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "CDB" RESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG

How to create Control file.

Being a new bie plz help me.
Can you let me know steps to create a new
control file. Create control file is always
giving error messages and if i have all data
and REDO logs intact how can i recover my
data base again using new control file
please help ....
null

hai,
for creating control file we proceed to ways:
1. create controle file using sql command as sys or system users
sql>alter database backup controlfile to trace;
system itself creates controlfile and keeps in udump directory.
2. using the old backup copies, edit the currect file locations, parameters manually.
Then run this script at nomount mode, to create the controlfile

AUDIT CREATE CONTROL FILE

Hai
how to set audit for CREATE CONTROL FILE?
17:45:07 SQL> AUDIT CREATE CONTROL FILE;
AUDIT CREATE CONTROL FILE
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00969: missing ON keyword
Whats the problem above statement?

Hello;
That sounds like an issue outside of Oracle ( OS? ). The listener logs might help.
On your first question I check the alert log of my test database. It does not show control file creation, but it kind of a Chicken and the egg, with the database create.
It does show standby information :
Mon Jan 02 05:38:59 2012
alter database create standby controlfile as 'STANDBY.ctl' Common audits
audit grant any object privilege;
audit create session;
audit alter user;
audit create user;
audit drop user;
audit drop tablespace;
audit grant any role;
audit grant any privilege;
audit alter system;
audit alter session;
audit delete on AUD$ by access;
audit insert on AUD$ by access;
audit update on AUD$ by access;
audit delete table;
audit create tablespace;
audit alter database;
audit create role;
audit create table;
audit alter any procedure;
audit create view;
audit drop any procedure;
audit drop profile;
audit alter profile;
audit alter any table;
audit create public database link;Best Regards

In case of Control File Failure, Create Control File cmd how get scn?

The following lines i picked from the
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:5033895918209
======================================================
1. We can use the 'alter database rename ' at mount stage to rename any datafile. Or is it not possible to rename the system datafile like this? Why?
2. What happens to the SCN information in the controlfile when a controlfile is recreated? How will the database sync the SCN with that of the datafiles?
If I issue a 'backup controlfile to <file>' at 8 am and then restore that controlfile binary backup at 10 am and try to open the database, it will give me a control file old error. I understand that it is because the SCN is not in sync. But if I issue a 'backup controlfile to trace' at 8 am and use that script to recreate a new controlfile at 10 am, why doesn't I get the error? Where does it get the SCN information then?
So what is the use of taking a binary copy of the controlfile. Looks like having a 'backup controlfile to trace' script is better than a binary backup. Do you agree? Why/whynot?
Followup August 16, 2002 - 2pm US/Eastern:
1) you could but I just always did it with the create controlfile statement.
When moving system -- I do it that way
When moving ANY OTHER tablespace -- i just offline it, move the files, rename the files online it.
2) it just happens.
The control file you create will read the files to figure out what is up.
I agree, I've never used a binary controlfile backup myself.
=========================================================
My Question- In the Point2 above "Where does it get the SCN information and how control file do SCN Sync with data files?
"

1. The CREATE CONTROLFILE reads SCNs from the DataFiles. If the
database was last shutdown, all the datafiles are "non-fuzzy" and have the same
SCN (as of the shutdown checkpoint), If the database or some of the files are from
are hot backup, you cannot open the database because the SCN of some files is
older (lower) than others -- that is why a RECOVER (DATABASE or DATAFILE) is
required.
See http://web.singnet.com.sg/~hkchital/Incomplete_Recovery_with_BackupControlfile.doc
2. I'm not sure I agree with Tom Kyte's response
"I agree, I've never used a binary controlfile backup myself. "
to the question
"So what is the use of taking a binary copy of the controlfile. Looks like having a 'backup controlfile to trace' script is better than a binary backup. Do you agree? Why/whynot?"
If you have lost your database (storage/filesystem failure) and all your datafiles are lost,
you cannot simply do a CREATE CONTROLFILE from a Trace -- because the
CREATE CONTROLFILE has to read and verify all the datafiles specified in the
CREATE statement. If you have an RMAN Repository, you can use that to restore
your database files but otherwise, the RMAN information about backups and backupsets
are in the binary controlfile.
That is why it is important to take binary controlfile backups either manually or
using RMAN or using CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON.
