Move ASM disks with database from one server to another?

I have a 11.2.0 ASM with a 11.2.0 database on two internal disks on server1. The disks are not in any raid or volume manager configuration, i.e. they are just two disks. The disks were physically removed from server1 and installed on server2, which is the same hardware, OS, patch level etc, in the same target position. Installed the 11.2.0 rdbms and grid infrastructure binaries on server2; changed the raw disk partition ownership to oracle and started asmca. asmca does not see the disks.
My question, is this possible and if so, what am I missing?

I did not manually create an ASM instance and try to add the diskgoup. My understanding is, if you use asmca then it starts an ASM instance, if one is not already running, and lets you configure your diskgroup. This is what I am trying to do, with no luck (asmca does not see the disks)I may be totally wrong here but afaik dbca creates the ASM instance. ASMCA is just for adding disks or diskgroups......
Did you try to create an ASM instance with dbca? When doing so do not put your disks in there - this will create a new disk group.....

How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

Hi,
If you would like to move your source models, target models and project contents from Work repository 1 to another work repository.
I.e. Dev. server to Prod Server.
1. Firstly, replicate the master repository connections i.e. with same naming conventions manually
2. Go to Dev. Server work repository -> File Tab -> Click on Export work repository (save it in a folder)
3. After exporting, you can view the xml files in the folders.
4. Now, Open the Prod. server and make sure you already replicated mas. rep. details.
5. Now, right click on model and import source model in synonym mode insert_update (select source model from the folder where your xml file located)
6. Similarily, import again target then Project.
Now, check. It should work.
Thank you.

How Can I Copy an database from one server to another ?

Hi All,
I need to copy an existing database from one server to another server. I want to maintain all the settings from the source database.
I´m not used to Oracle database and i´d be glad for any help.
How can I do this ? Do I need to backup and restore in the other server ? Do I need to copy files from one server to another ?
Any help will be really appreciated.
Carlos.

I think a simpler approach, other than using RMAN, is to do a database export from the source and then import them into the target database. But you will need to do some ground work on the target, i.e, create database, tablespaces, and schemas (with their name the same as those in the source database.)

Migration databases from one server to another

Hi All
I want to migrate our 8 production databases from one server to another server. these are in RAC .Details are below
OLD SERVER: -
OS: REDHAT LINUX 3
ORACLE: ORACLE 10gR1
FILE SYSTEM : OCFS
STORAGE: SAN
Its a RAC databases
NEW SERVER: -
OS: REDHAT LINUX 5
ORACLE: ORACLE 11g R2
FILE SYSTEM:ASM
STORAGE:SAN ( fresh one)
Its also RAC DATABASES
So please tell me the best method to migrate 8 databases from old server to another server . all databases size are not more than 50 GB.
All servers details are above .please let me know if you require any other details
please reply soon we have to do it on urgent basis

Since all your databases are small (< 50G), I would recommend using expdp/impdp - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17222/expimp.htm - as this will provide several advantages as listed in the document.

Moving CMS database from one server to another

Using the following:
Crystal Enterprise 10, installed on W2K3 Server R2 (not making any changes to this server);
CMS database, installed on W2K Server, SQL Server 2000, SP3
New database server: W2K3 Server R2, SQL Server 2005, SP2
I found what I think are the steps to moving the database from one place to another in the CE10 Administrator's guide (pages 291-300, but I want to make sure there aren't any "gotchas" when moving the database location and/or upgrading the database version. I'm primarily a DBA, so I already know about the Schema security change going from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.
In a nutshell, here's my plan:
1. Take fresh backup of the existing CMS database
2. Stop Crystal Management Server
3. Click "Specify CMS Data Source" on the toolbar.
4. ETC--following the steps in the admin guide
If anyone has done this and has run into any problems (what I'm expecting) or had it go smoothly (I would be surprised), please let me know what to expect.
Thanks!

All you really need to do is stop the crystal services.
Backup the CMS and Auditing database
Detach the CMS and Auditing database
Copy CMS and Auditing databases to new DB server
Attach the CMS and Auditing databases
Set the compatibility mode
On the servers/s that host the CMS service, modify the ODBC connections to point to the new database server
Start the CMS service, fire up the Crystal services.
One thing to note, I don't think SQL 2005 is a supported platform for CE10 - this doesn't mean it won't work and since the support lifecycle for the product is long gone it doesn't really make much difference however you may want to run some thorough testing prior to the move.

Move a database from one server to another

Hello All,
I am using Oracle 11g R2 on Oracle Enterprise Linux 32 bit.
I have 2 servers , LinuxActive and LinuxPassive. I am trying to dismount the file system of the datafiles and control files ... from one server and mount it on the other.
I previously opened a thread here concerning this subject and reached a result that it can be done, now i have questions about the details.
I have installed Oracle software on both servers where ORACLE_BASE is /u01/app/oracle and ORACLE_HOME is /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1 on both servers.
I created an orcl database on LinuxActive where all its datafiles, control files, redo logs, flash_recovery_area is on a disk group mounted under /oradata.
I want to dismount /oradata from LinuxActive and mount it to LinuxPassive and start up the orcl database from LinuxPassive instead of LinuxActive.
I may need to revert back /oradata to LinuxActive.
What steps should I do? should I migrate my spfile also to /oradata?
Should I create an orcl database on LinuxPassive?
Do I start up my database like i do when i build an Oracle dataguard database ? from a pfile of the old database?
Regards,

RMAN duplicate will be simpler.
As you are in 11g, you can perform duplicate from active database.
Create PFILE in new location,
Change "CONTROL_FILES" parameter to new mounpoint.
Perform RMAN duplicate
In both the cases you have to take care of parameters, DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT & LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT.

Error while duplicate database from one server to another server

Hi there,
I am practicing duplicate database from one single database server to another server. Hardware and driver path on 2 machines is the same. Here are my steps:
--------------------- Clone site:
1. modify listener.ora with content:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost.localdomain)(PORT = 1521))
ADR_BASE_LISTENER = /u01/app/oracle
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1)
(SID_NAME= orcl)
ENABLE_GLOBAL_DYNAMIC_ENDPOINT_LISTENER = ON
2. stop and start listener again, message show like :
Service “orcl” has 1 instance(s).
Instance “orcl”, status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service…
The command completed successfully
3. create pfile from spfile.
4. shutdown and startup nomount with pfile is new pfile create from step 3.
--------------------------------------- Source site
1. modify tnsnames.ora with content like:
VVCOREDB =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost.localdomain)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = vvcoredb)
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = 10.254.1.235) (PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
2. run command from rman like these:
rman> connect target sys@vvcoredb
rman> target database Password:
rman> connect auxiliary sys@orcl
rman> auxiliary database Password:
rman> DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE to orcl from active database spfile nofilenamecheck;

How to move set of FND Message from one server to another server

Hi,
I am having a request need to transfer all customized FND MESSAGES from one server(developing server) to another server (client server). Tell me the possible ways to do this in Oracle R12.
Thanks
Vivek
Edited by: 912882 on 4 Aug, 2012 2:54 PM

This is a two step process. but for this you need to ensure that all your custom messages were created in custom application say XXC
download all the mesages by typing the below command from the developing server unix box
FNDLOAD apps/$CLIENT_APPS_PWD 0 Y DOWNLOAD $FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afmdmsg.lct XXC_CUSTOM_MESG.ldt APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME='XXC'once this command is successful you will get the definition and data in file XXC_CUSTOM_MESG.ldt.
Place this file in the main server unix box and run the below command :
FNDLOAD apps/$CLIENT_APPS_PWD 0 Y UPLOAD $FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afmdmsg.lct XXC_CUSTOM_MESG.ldt - CUSTOM_MODE=FORCE

Move a single Public Folder from one server to another cross-domain

Hi, I need to move specific Public Folders from a database on Exch2007 to a database on Exch2010. These are 2 separate domains and are already set up with their respective Public folder databases. I have a customer requirement to move from one domain to
the other. All mailboxes are moved, I just need to move their Public Folders. What is the easiest way to carry out this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can take PST of public folder from source forest and import PST on target forest from Outlook client.
Then you can use ExFolders to export and import PF permissions.

Move secondary site (virtual machine) from one server to another server, something to take care?

Hi guys
In our company we have a subsidiary with a simple infrastructure with a Domain Controller, some other virtual Server, Switches etc.
When we start to use the SCCM in our company, we take the decision that we want to install in this subsidiary a secondary site.
Thats why we organize a computer with good performance and installed ESXi on it. On the ESXI we create a VM with Windows Server 2012 and prepare it as secondary site.
All well and good. But now we want to setup a new infrastructor on this subsidiary with a high-performance Server. On this high performance server should also installed ESXi.
My question is, if we want to move the VM (which has installed our secondary site on it) from the computer to the server, do we need take care about something?
- IP address is going to keep the same
- No changes in Firewall
- No changes generally Network IP address
We considered, that we will shutdown the server (virtual machine) and make an export and import that virtual machine into the new server.
Thank you in advance!

As long as the OS "looks" the same to the external world -- which is the whole point of virtualization -- and is reachable using the same info -- IP, hostname -- then there's nothing to account for because to the application and the clients,
nothing has changed.

How to 'move' databases from one server to another

Hi there
Here is a brief description of my assignment.
We have two Redhat Linux 4 64-bit server where two Oracle 10.2.0.4 64-bit database are running (one on each server).
<li>DB on server1 is using Filesystem for storage.
<li>DB on 2nd server is using ASM.
<li>Size of both is between 75-80GB.
<li>I have to move both the databases to new servers (same platform) with minimum downtime.
<li>There is no upgrade required during this move/migration. Both DBs have to be brought over as-is.
<li>The new servers may be on VMWare - I am not sure it at the moment. But please let me know if that will make any difference.
I would highly appreciate if someone could please provide me with some high-level guidelines to perform this move.
Best regards

Hi Srini
Thank you so much for sharing the valuable URLs.
I am reading through "Cloning An Existing Oracle10g Release 2 (10.2.0.x) RDBMS Installation Using OUI [ID 559304.1]" and I have few questions.
<li> This MOS says:
NOTE: This note should only be used for cloning single-instance (non-RAC) homes. It should not be used for cloning RAC, CRS or ASM homes.If that is the case, how should I clone ASM-Home?
One of the environments that I have to migrate to a new server has ASM installed as well. And couple of oracle databases (10.2.0.5) on that server are using ASM for storage.
<li>If were to do a fresh installation of 10gR2 RDBMS and ASM homes (on Redhat Linux 64-bit), I guess I need to contact Oracle Support (open an SR) to access the software, right?
<li>How to check from existing installation which patches I need to download and apply to this fresh installation in order to make it same as the existing installation? "opatch lsinventory" gives me a long list of number/fixes - I don't know which patch(es) to download.
Please advise!
Best regards

Copying logical database from one server to another

Hello All,
I have one logical database name as KDF in my test server which has become inconsistent due to some reason . In my live server tht logical database is consitent now what is the option to copy the same from my live server to test server .
If i copied will it work properly or is there any other solutions or options.
Thanks
Sunny

Hi Suny,
First of all, we cannot create a transport request in Prodcution server and then transport it to the Development Server.Else, it is the other way round,one can create a request in development,then transport it to Test and then to the Production server.
That is why I said that if the SAP standard LDB is disturbed in Development as well,then you will have to manually look in for the modifications between the Production and the Test Server,and change them in the developemt and then transport it to Test server and then Production.
Hence,the best solution is to manually check for the inconsistencies and modify in the development server and then transport.
The path for copying that you are following is correct anyways.
In case you have any further clarifications,do let me know.
Regards,
Puneet Jhari.

Moving the HFM Oracle Database from One Server to Another

Our Oracle DBAs have requested that our HFM Oracle db in TEST be moved to another server. When we tried this in our DEV environment, we had major issues afterwards and some of the software needed to be re-installed. Does anyone have any recommendations on how what we need to do on the Hyperion side prior and post db move to make the transition smooth? In addition to HFM, we have Essbase, Planning, Workspace, Interactive Reporting, Financial Reporting and Web Analytics.
Thanks.
Terri Taylor

If all of the database files, including the binaries, are on a SAN you might be able to...
1. Cold backup of everything - database files and binaries.
2. Dismount the SAN volumes from the old server.
3. Mount the SAN volumes to the new server - using the same mount points.
4. Start up the database on the new server.
If the OS version/release are the same between new and old, that should be about all you need to do.
If the OS is same but upgraded to new version/release you will want to relink the Oracle executables before starting up.
