DBLink Between Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i

Hello,
Can anyone help me with this question....
Can a you create a DBLink from Oracle 9i database to Oracle 8i database (or vice versa)? Is it supported by Oracle?
AJ

Hi,
Yes it is supported and it works fine but there is a known bug.
If your 8i database is 8.1.6 and if you have a table with a LONG column in that database you won't be able to create a view in your 9i database that will access the LONG column of the 8.1.6 table. If you do that you will get an ORA-00600.
It is fix with 8.1.7.4.
Bye

  • Select query differences between oracle 9 and oracle 8.

    Hi,
    I have a problem using the select query between oracle 7 and oracle 9i I don't have the same result :
    ex:
    With oracle7
    SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
    'CHAMP 'CHAMP
    champ1 champ2
    With Oracle 9
    SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
    'CHAMP1' 'CHAMP2'
    champ1 champ2
    So Can someone tell me how to solve this problem ? Is there a parameter in oracle 9 to set?
    Thanx.

    Whenever you are posting anything over internet forums like this - you should be very careful about not just posting the details which requires to solve the problem - also should be sensible about your question.
    This is not at all desired when you are posting such question. It may be because - you may not well aware of the fact.
    My suggestion is -> First Go through the basics Of SQL in general.
    Then go for any specific product like Oracle/ SQL Server/ Sybase etc.
    And, finally learn the advanced commands of that DB.
    You asked it - may be you thought the difference in output in terms of lines. But, that is not your actual output. That is the graphical display part only.
    Anyway,
    You can get the quite familier output by first type the following command ->
    set lin 310Regards.

  • Differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI and Question BAM  Data Objects

    Hi,
    I have two questions.
    1. Can someone tell me differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI?
    My understanding about Oracle BAM is, we use BAM to build Dashboards or Reports.
    We can also build DashBoards or reports using Oracle BI.
    I am not able to understand why Oracle has two tools for same purpose?
    Which tool is more powerful and user friendly(Oracle BI or Oracle BAM)?
    2. Every time we plan to develop Dashboard or report in BAM, we need to create BAM ADC Data Object to store Data (i.e first step is to get data from external database or application and second step is to store data in BAM ADC data object).
    My understanding is we have an extra step(i.e creating Data Object) in Oracle BAM to develop a report or DashBoard
    I am wrong pl correct me?

  • What is Difference between ANSI SQL and ORACLE SQL

    Hi,
    I am going to take the assesment test for ANSI SQL Programming before that i want to know any difference between ANSI SQL and ORACLE SQL?
    I am studying for SQL but the test will be ANSI SQL please let me give an idea about the both.
    Thanks
    Merina Roslin

    Basically there is syntax difference between both of them.
    Lets say i want to join two table EMP and DEPT based on DEPTNO.
    With Oracle SQL format its like this.
    select e.*
      from emp e, dept d
    where e.deptno = d.deptnoHere the joining condition goes in the WHERE clause.
    With ANSI SQL format its like this.
    select e.*
      from emp e
      join dept d
        on e.deptno = d.deptnoHere the join condition is mentioned separately and not in WHERE clause.
    Oracle supports ANSI SQL starting from 9i version.
    You can read more about the syntax difference Here

  • Frequently transfering databases between MS SQL and Oracle

    Hello all,
    I am looking for a solution to easily, efficiently and be able to migrate/transfer databases between MS SQL and Oracle frequently.
    I need to be able to replicate a databases on Ms SQL and Oracle for testing purposes. I will need to do this on frequent basis - almost once a week.
    Please suggest what would be the best way.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Justin,
    You have guessed it right to a great extend. Yes dont actually need to develop, rather need to test an application that supports SQL and Oracle databases. Now when testing the application its obviously vital to create proper systematic test data. This usually takes a lot of time and effort from the testing team/team-member. So, yes what I need to do is create the test data on one database(may it be SQL or Oracle) and migrate/transfer the data into the database on another server( ie. SQL to Oracle or Oracle to SQL).
    So,
    Are you developing a product that works against both SQL Server and Oracle and trying to synchonize development efforts?Yes, thats correct to extend, I need to test an application against both the servers, as it supports both types of databases, and try to reduce the test setup efforts (literally double the amount) that go in after manual creating same data on each type of database.
    Are you trying to replicate structural changes between systems?I am not 100% sure, what you mean by this. But whats important and enough for me is to replicate the data. It would not be a lot of work to run the scripts and create empty schema objects.
    Are you trying to replicate data changes between systems? The fact that you're only doing this weekly suggests that you're not working in a traditional replication environment.Yes, again as I mentioned above. It would be sufficient for me to just get a copy of the initial dataset. And then replicating changes to it would not be that important. However, if I can achieve a solution to this, I can by all means create a new database on the one server (SQL or Oracle) and take the data-set of the most recent/correct changes and replicate it on the other type of server as and when needed.
    No - this is not a traditional replicating environment. I say weekly, because it is usually once in a week or forthnight that someone from the team will need to spent time to manually copy the test-data onto the another type of server in order to run the same testcases on two types of servers.
    How do you handle conflicts (i.e. if I modify a row in both systems, which modification wins)? This is not really a problem in my scenario, as I only need to be able to transfer the data across to the different server and forget about the two databases actually being in-sync.
    I have also, looked at DTS for a possible solution on SQL, however it seems highly un-realistic, having to map somewhere like 250 tables from the a drop-down list, only because the two database servers use different cases to represent tables internals. So, table 'Table' in my application's SQL database is called 'TABLE' is my applications Oracle database. DTS is highly inefficient in dealing with this. Also, having 250 tables move makes this a bit of a pain.
    Thank you Justin for your response; I highly appreciate your inputs.
    Regards, Nisarg

  • Differenece between oracle streams and oracle Replication

    Hi all,
    Can anyone tell me difference between oracle streams and oracle replication?
    Regards

    refer the link:Difference Between Oracle Replication & Oracle Streams.
    Oracle Replication is designed to replicate exact copies of data sets to various databases. Oracle Streams is designed to propagate individual data changes to various databases. Thus, Replication is probably easier if the end goal is to maintain identical copies of data, where Streams is easier if the end goal is to allow different databases to react differently to data changes.
    Oracle Replication is a significantly more mature product-- it is quite usable with older databases. Oracle Streams is a much newer technology and is only usable among different 9i databases. Most competent Oracle developers and DBA's are familiar with Oracle Replication, while many fewer have any real experience with Streams.
    The Streams architecture strikes me as a lot more flexible than Oracle Replication's. This leads me to suspect that Oracle will be pushing Streams over Replication in subsequent releases, so I would expect new features in Streams, like DDL changes, that aren't in Oracle Replication. Realistically, though, I don't expect any serious movement away from Replication for at least a few releases, so I wouldn't tend to be overly concerned on this front.
