DBCA Template (.dbt) file SYNTAX?

Hi!
I am looking to customize a DBCA template file (.dbt) and have searched the 10G documentation and MetaLink with out success on how to do this. I am looking for the syntax / content of these files. Some examples would be great! I am especially interested in setting up my own variables for file locations, etc.
Thanks in advance!
Dave Venus

Hi!
Thanks for your help. Do you have a specific manual that would help? I can find descriptions of the templates that Oracle provides but nothing on the actual XML entries themselves and the values that can be entered, etc.
I have looked at some information on response files but have yet to see how they are used to generate a template file.
Thanks again for your time and help!

Files in assistants/dbca/templates

The files in $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates (on 9i) appear to be pre-built, template, databases.
Data_Warehouse.dfj
Transaction_Processing.dfj
I'm assuming these are ok to remove.. I will never use them.
Am I correct? Seems a bit of a waste of space for something I'll never use.

SMF 8)

Hello,
My mistake, the files are *.dfj as you say.
I am using Oracle 9i on a Windows server. I will look into the files on the disks and i will check if any of my colleagues have these files in thier systems too.
Thanks again.
I don't know what may have occurred to delete them!!!

Any different between the dbca templates

like
Data_Warehouse.dbc General_Purpose.dbc Seed_Database.dfb

i do not know .dfb ,.dmp , .ctl ,what 's these use for?DBCA uses patterns, or otherwise called Templates, which create either a new database with existing patterns or a pattern itself based on an existing base. The following are the template files that DBCA can create:
•.dbc - Database Clone (for a new database)
•.dbt - Template Database (for an existing database)
These templates, which are in the form of XML files, contain information about the database including database options, init.ora parameters, and storage attributes (datafiles, tablespaces, controlfiles and redologs).
The demo templates such as Data_Warehouse.dbc, General_Purpose.dbc, Transaction_Processing.dbc, and New_Database.dbt are available at the following location:
ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates

refer:-Re: Issue extracting Oracle's example.dmp
The datafiles for the seed database are stored in compressed RMAN backup format in a file with a .dfb extension. The seed database control file is stored in a file with .ctl extension. (This file is needed only when storing datafiles in Automatic Storage Management (ASM) disk groups or as Oracle managed files.) The .dbc file contains the location of the seed database datafiles and contains the source database name used to mount the control file.

Install datamining and unicode support using dbca template

Hi All
We are creating a 11g release 1 db on linux using the Amazon AMI.
There is this script in /home/oracle/run_dbca.sh
And we would like to have uni-code support so we can display Chinese/Japanese or whatever multibyte character.
We would also like to have DataMining option installed
How do I modify the *.dbt or *.dbc fille in /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/assistants/dbca/templates
do this?
Is there a documentation for how to write the XML construct for these??
-Thanks so much for the help!

-Thanks so much for the help!It's been so long since I've used one of the stock templates that I don't remember what options are available under them, but it occurs to me that sometimes - particularly for complex requirements - you just have to choose "custom" and walk through the entire wizard, checking very possible option. It's not all that hard.

DBCA templates - PGA and SGA using "percentageMemTOSGA" parameter

Hi all,
I am trying to configure a DBCA template to perform silent database creations on servers at our client sites. The amount of RAM could vary from server to server. For this reason, I am specifying the following parameters:
customSGA=false
percentageMemTOSGA=70In principle, this works pretty well - my DB is created with a suitable value for SGA_TARGET based on the RAM available on the server. However, the value that it uses for PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET is too small for our needs. From experience, we can get by with a smaller SGA, but we need a relatively large PGA.
I have tried specifying the parameter "pga_aggregate_target" in the template (and thus trying to "override" the decision of DBCA) but DBCA ignores my "hard-coded" value for this and sets pga_aggregate_target according to (presumably) some calculation based on:
- The amount of RAM available
- The value of "percentageMemTOSGA"
- Some "other" value which tells DBCA how to divide up the %age memory it will take between SGA and PGA
So, my question is:
Does anybody know how to effectively use both "percentageMemTOSGA", and:
EITHER:
* tell DBCA how to split the memory that it will use from RAM (in this case 70%) between pga_aggregate_target and sga_target (some parameter maybe like "percent_to_pga" and "percent_to_sga")
OR (not as useful but better than no control):
* specify explicitly a value (or percentage) for pga_aggregate_target, but leave the value of sga_target to be decided based on the percentageMemTOSGA
I hope I've explained that well enough...
Regards,
Ados

I've checked the help for dbca (I'm currently running from the command prompt in "silent" mode) and don't see anything about recording the creation - how would I do that? Or are you referring to using the GUI, creating a database, and then saving the template? If it's that, that's what I did first, then editing the template for my tests - I don't see the parameter(s) that I'm looking for in the template.Ados,
I did the same what you did. Run dbca in GUI mode and generate template only now in template file I see there is a parameter to set these value. For your reference I am posting the content of that file:

Unable to upload the updated/modified Report template (rtf file) in siebel

Hi,
I am unable to upload the updated/modified Report template (rtf file) if already exists in the local database.
Initially I have uploaded a rtf template, generated xliff, registered it and can view the report from the registered view. Later I have made few changes to the rtf template, in the reports template view, I have uploaded this. When i run the report in the registered view, I am able to see the earlier version and it doesnt show me the updated changes.
I am using 8.1.1.3 siebel and BIP 10.1.3.3.1 on local.
Looking at the metalink found "How To Upload Modified RTF Template Files In The Siebel Application For BI Publisher Reporting [ID 1136418.1]" which is related to server but I am working on local database
Please find attached the template, xml file. can you please look into this and update me ASAP
Thanks,
RV

Hi,
Not able to find Report - Standard templates or Report - Custom templates view in Administration - BIP reports in Siebel 8.1.1.3?
We have applied 8.1.1.3 patch on 8.1.1.0
below are the steps followed
Reports are not generated after 8.1.1.3 patch installtion.
we have also followed to below steps mentioned for this issue in oracle support.
"In order to resolve this behavior it is necessary to ensure that the 8.1.1.3 FixPack has been applied to the Siebel Tools installation. This will provide an additional .zip file in the REPPATCH folder of the Siebel Tools installation. Once this has been done please then follow the configuration steps as documented :
change sysprefix to X_ before sif import and chage back to SBL_ after sif import.
1) Import the sif files from Siebel\8.1\Tools_1\REPPATCH\12-1VMBCSV.zip
2) Import the 4 SIF files in the following order:
S_XMLP_REP_TMPL_02112010.sif
SBL_XMLP_REPORT_SELECTION_FLG.sif
Report Template BC.sif
Report Template Registration Applet.sif
3)Apply the DDL for table S_XMLP_REP_TMPL and compile repository
Once the above steps have been completed the Selected Record flag will appear in the Report Template Registration views."
we still not able to generated able to generate reports even after following above steps.
Thanks

How do I save a messages in text, NOT template or file?

I want to be able to save an email from outlook, gmail, Hotmail, or any other format as a plain text or rich text message. Several of my emails are readable by TB24, but the only option for saving them is the Template or file. This is fine for those messages already in the mailbox, but if I can read an archived message in TB format, I should be able to save it in the same fashion. I guess a converter plugin is needed or a tutorial on how to properly save emails from other formats. Ex I open a folder containing an email from a past Outlook acct, The email can be deciphered by TB24, (ie it opens it), but when I try to save it to file(which gives options for format), it doesn't respond to my request!! Am I not doing something correctly or does the TB24 program "block" that function because of it is not in the TB24 mailbox? Baffling and frustrating when try to find a particular message from numerous formats. Thanks to all those who know more than I about this.

'''File|Save As|File''' then in the resulting dialogue, choose "text" file type when saving. Of course in doing so you lose all formatting and attachments.
How do you search and index messages when saved as independent and free-standing text files? I keep email correspondence within the email client specifically because the tools to manage and search are effective and efficient. In fact I occasionally email myself something that needs to be preserved simply because as email it is so easy and convenient to find and retrieve. Searching for text in documents in Windows has become a chore.
I'm not at all sure why you want to open email messages from other environments in Thunderbird, only to save them as text files. But have you tried "Edit As New" to see if that will offer other save options?
What format(s) are these other messages from outlook, gmail, windows live saved in then?
Don't forget simple old select all, copy and paste to save message content in any other document type.

How do I set up/install my complimentary "PDF Portfolio Templates" zip file?

How do I set up/install my complimentary "PDF Portfolio Templates" zip file?
The Download site says: "Please click the button below and select “save” when prompted to download the files to your computer.* To add your content, simply open Acrobat XI and follow the instructions."
The instructions say:
"To install a custom layout, select File > Create > PDF Portfolio.
In the “Create PDF Portfolio” dialog box, click Import Custom
Layout. Navigate to the custom layout le on your computer
and select Open. Layout les have a .nav extension. e
layout appears in the Portfolio Layouts list, where you can select it.
Imported layouts are permanently added to the Custom
Layouts section of the Portfolio Layouts panel."
However, there is no "File>Create>PDF Portfolio" menu option...

Acrobat Standard can't make Portfolios; you shouldn't have been offered that item when you registered. I suggest you contact Customer Support and ask for your selection to be reset.

Links in template-dependent files (solved - but new problems towards the end of the thread!)

This is a simple problem that probably has a simple solution.
My links work in the .dwt file itself, but just one of them
(although there are only two at the moment) does not work in the
template-dependent files (my browser can't find the file). I used
point-to-file to create the link.

I can't find any links there or here:

In the template, select the image you want to be a link.

Dbca template migration between 10.2.0.1 and 10.2.0.3

Hello Oracle experts,
Question: Is there anyway I could upgrade my 10.2.0.1 dbca template to work with 10.2.0.3?
Background:
We have bunch of custom dbca seed templates created from 10.2.0.1, which allows rapid setup of database with per-defined data. Recently, the decision is to upgrade to 10.2.0.3.
In 10.2.0.3, when trying to create database from 10.2.0.1 templates, dbca would always fail at 40%, and Oracle instance terminated with ORA-01092. The database is unable to open after restore. Metalink Doc. 556639.1 clearly suggested dbca templates between these two versions are incompatible.
So is there any utility we could use to upgrade templates to new patchset? Otherwise the only alternative I could think of is create 10.2.0.1 database for each template, then upgrade to 10.2.0.3, and take another template. This is tons of work given the number of templates we have and their size.
I truly appreciate any suggestion which would save me few weekends of work.
Regards
