Oracle Database & Zones

We are moving our Oracle Database from Solaris 10 to Solaris 11.2. Is there advantage and disadvantages  of running the Database in Kernel Zone?

For all the licence information, please contact your local Oracle sale rep. This is the only way to have official response you can count on for a future contract.

  • How to configure Oracle database in a failover zone cluster

    Setup: Oracle database and zone configured on highly available local filesystems.
    Two node cluster.
    Oracle database running inside the zone.
    Note: I dont have a zone cluster.
    1. I need to make the zone and the oracle database highly available.
    2. Can I configure the Oracle Data service directly to run in the zone or will it involve creating sczsh_config script to do the same.
    I have been going through the guides and searching over the net, but haven't found any help so far. Its so much simpler to configure this environment in Veritas cluster. Hope I find some help here.
    TIA,
    Sudhir

    The Oracle Solaris Cluster concepts guide has some information on which zone model to choose:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18728_01/html/821-2682/gcbkf.html#scrolltoc
    When managing a Solaris zone with the HA Zones agent, the cluster basically regards the non-global zone as a blackbox.
    As such you can either start the Oracle database as part of the runlevel/SMF startup of the non-global zone, or you can use the sczsh or sczsmf component and use your own scripts to start, probe and stop the Oracle database.
    Usage of the standard HA Oracle data service is not supported in combination with the HA Zones agent.
    If you require a more fine grained control of services running in non-global zones, why not setup a zone cluster and then having HA Oracle failover the Oracle database between non-global zones?

  • Runinstaller (oracle database) hangs the zone and global zone

    We have recently installed a Solaris 10 (Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 s10s_u10wos_17b SPARC) on the SPARC T4 and create two zones out of it.
    We tried to install oracle database on the zone by running the installer (tried xclock and it works very well so display is not a problem).
    Not only the zone was hang the entire Global zone SPARC server was hang and the only way to bring the system back is to power on and off it.

  • TimeZone.getDefault().getID() does not exist in your Oracle database table V$TIMEZONE_NAMES???

    Hi Everyone,
    My Jdev version is 11.1.2.3.0.
    I have developed many ADF applications in this version itself by setting time zone as -Duser.timezone="+05:30" and all were running fine.
    But Jdeveloper got crashed so i reinstalled the same version but now none of the applications are running.
    Its showing error as below:
    oracle.jbo.JboException: JBO-29112: The time zone 'GMT+05:30' defined in adf-config.xml or TimeZone.getDefault().getID() does not exist in your Oracle database table V$TIMEZONE_NAMES. Please set an available time zone in your TZ environment variable or user.timezone Java system property.
    What to do now?
    how will i know wat time zone should be set?
    please help the needful...

  • Oracle database does not start timezone mismatch

    Hi
    I am new on oracle database. My server has restart and now when I try to start oracle database I get this error can anyone help to come out this error.
    oracle@host [~]# /home/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/emctl start dbconsole
    TZ set to US/Michigan
    Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control Release 10.2.0.1.0
    Copyright (c) 1996, 2005 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
    http://server:1158/em/console/aboutApplication
    Timezone mismatch: The agentTZRegion value (US/Michigan) in
    /home/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/database/sysman/config/emd.properties
    does not match the current environment TZ setting(US/Michigan).
    The dbconsole cannot run with this mismatch.
    If US/Michigan is the correct timezone, set your timezone environment variable to US/Michigan and repeat the 'emctl start dbconsole' operation.
    If US/Michigan is not the correct timezone, make sure that the timezone in your environment is correct, and then run the following command in your local Oracle Home: 'emctl resetTZ agent'
    The output of this command will include detailed instructions to follow, to correct the mismatch.
    Thanks in advance
    Edited by: user6550464 on Mar 29, 2009 11:46 PM

    And now You see the reason for error message.
    emctl thinks that time zone is US/Michigan (its from emd.properties file)
    but on linux timezone is set to Asia/Calcutta
    Yoiu should understand which one timezone is correct. If it's US - then talk with server sysadmin, he will set correct one timezone on linux.
    If correct one is on linux - then follow metalink note how to change timezone for agent.
    If none of them are correct, then You will have to follow both steps.

  • Oracle database downgrade  from 11.2.0.3 to 10.2.0.4 and timezone files

    Hi,
    I would like to test downgrade process through the scripts (@catdwgrd.sql). Oracle documentation http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18283_01/server.112/e17222/downgrade.htm
    says
    "2.If you previously installed a recent version of the time zone file and used the DBMS_DST PL/SQL package to upgrade TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE data to that version, then you must install the same version of the time zone file in the release to which you are downgrading. For example, the latest time zone files that are supplied with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) are version 14 as of this printing. If after the database upgrade, you had used DBMS_DST to upgrade the TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE data to version 14, then install the version 14 time zone file in the release to which you are downgrading. This ensures that your TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE data is not logically corrupted during retrieval. To find which version your database is using, query V$TIMEZONE_FILE"
    1) In my case, I used DBMS_DST and now the version if the time zone file is 14. If I have to go back to 10.2.0.4, Should i copy the files to $ORACLE_HOME/ORACORE/ZONEINFO (where $ORACLE_HOME is 10.2.0.4)?
    2) If my Oracle 10.2.0.4 is shared with multiple instances, will i introduce risk for other databases running on the same oracle home when I copy the files?
    3) What other steps should I do other than copying the version 14 files into this directory?
    Thank You

    No - you should not copy files from the 11gR2 HOME to the 10.2.0.4 HOME - instead apply patch 9742718 to the 10.2.0.4 HOME (which corresponds to v14 of the DST patch)

    2) If my Oracle 10.2.0.4 is shared with multiple instances, will i introduce risk for other databases running on the same oracle home when I copy the files?
    You will need to follow steps in 9742718 for all of the databases running out of the 10.2.0.4 HOME

  • Oracle Database : Date conversion issue between timezones

    Hi All,
    We are trying to convert date from Eurpoer/Amsterdam timezone to Australia/Sydnet timezone and extracting time out of it.
    We are facing issue related to incorrect timing after conversion.
    Please find below issue details,
    Environment
    Database: Oracle 10.2.0.4
    Machine: Linux RHEL 4
    Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
    Issue: After converting date from Eurpoer/Amsterdam timezone to Australia/Sydnet timezone
    SELECT TO_CHAR (FROM_TZ (TO_TIMESTAMP ('201110201416', 'YYYYMMDDHH24MI'),
    DBTIMEZONE
    ) AT TIME ZONE 'Australia/Sydney', 'HH24:MI')
    FROM DUAL
    Output of above SQL is 22:16.
    Expected output is 23:16
    Database Timezone (DBTIMEZONE) is set to +02:00 (i.e. GMT + 2) (Europe/Amsterdam)
    If we convert date to Australia/Tasmania timezone then we get expected output i.e. 23:16.
    Question: Expected time for Australia/sydney is 23:16, but why Oracle database provides 22:16 as output.
    Please note that, Sydney and Tasmania comes under same timezone. Still we get different output for both the timezone.
    Oracle database considers GMT + 10 for Australia/sydney and GMT + 11 for Australia/Tasmania.
    If we want to use Australia/sydney then how should we get correct sydney time?
    Regards
    Shailendra

    I made a test and it showed when I omit TO_CHAR, both queries have the same result 11:15 PM. So it's TO_CHAR which is the 'culprit'. Since this is a globalization issue, you may repeat your question in this forum:
    Globalization Support
    (So one of the moderators moves the thread to this forum).

    By the way my local timezone is Europe/Berlin, there should be no difference to Amsterdam.

  • Problem finding data in an Oracle Database using CMP beans

    I am having a problem retrieving data from an Oracle database that has a date as
    part of the key. This data was loaded into my database via a batch process writing
    in java using java.sql.Date to store the date information. When calling the findByPrimaryKey
    method of a CMP Entity Bean I continued to get the FinderException. I know this
    data is in my database because I can view the data via SQLPlus and Microsoft Access.
    Has anyone ever experience problems with CMP beans accessing data from an Oracle
    database that had a date as part if the key or with accessing data in the database
    that insert via another method outside of your CMP bean. I desperately need some
    answers.

    Hi Dave,
    You should probably post this type of question in the CMP or JDBC section
    for best results. Chances are that the date is suffering from a rounding
    problem (it could be a date/time in the database with a different time zone)
    or is not the date that you think it is (wrong century or millenium). I've
    seen both. You need to write a quick piece of code that loads in those
    values as both Java timestamps and dates and makes sure that they are what
    you think they are.

  • SAP Time zone vs oracle time zone

    Hello Experts,
    I am confused by SAP's system time zone setting and oracle database's time zone setting.
    Can I change SAP time zone setting without affecting the database time? Are they the same thing? Must I restart SAP / database / server after the TZ change at SAP-level to effect it? Is OS time zone = database time zone = SAP time zone?
    Has this anything to do with database timestamp?
    Pls advice.
    Regards,
    Ernesta
    (I promise to award full points for best answer).

    Hello ernesta,
    As I know, SAP's time is a mathematic calculation on the server/database's time.
    This calculation is called time zone. Using transaction STZBC you can change your country's settings (for example CET+2 and etc). After the changing you'll have to restart the SAP instance.
    You can set time zone setting to specific users via transaction SU01.
    Furthermore, I suggest you to read several notes, maybe they could help you in the future:
    Note 184992 - Country/time zone assignment not correct
    Note 129266 - One hour time deviation
    Note 102088 - End of daylight saving time: the "double hour"
    Note 081950 - Time zones: local date in dialog and in RFC
    Best Regards,
    Dimitry Haritonov

  • Facing error during Oracle Database Express Edition Installation

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install Oracle database XE on my system (Windows XP Service Pack 3) and keep getting an error "failed to load dll chkportdl2"" while trying to do so.
    While researching on a fix,I came across a solution that suggested uninstall of XP service pack 3 during installation and reinstall later.
    Now,I dont see an option for "Windows XP Service Pack 3" in "Add/Remove Programs".
    I believe Windows XP OBI comes up pre-loaded with Windows XP Service Pack 3 and am not sure if I can uninstall it.
    I looked up some other methods of removal here -
    http://www.troublefixers.com/uninstall-remove-windows-xp-service-pack-3-working-procedure/
    however,they werent very helpful either.
    Could you suggest how to fix this problem being faced in installing Database XE.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Priya Jetley

    Hi,
    I couldn't locate a chkportdll2 file either on my system.It's no regular dll you have on your system. It's usually unpacked in your temp directory when you execute the installer. The message you receive indicates that the installer either couldn't unpack properly (e.g. lack of free space), but this usually would have resulted in an error message. Or you have some Antivirus solution that treats that dll as malware (well, portscans can be bad) and has moved the file into a quarantine zone or at least blocked the access.
    Another option would be your user lacks execution privileges for network operations.
    The installer fails at the step when you specify a location to install the database.This could mean you don't have enough free (temp) space. How much space is left on the drive that hosts your temp folder?

  • Using Oracle ODBC Gateway connecting to a remote Oracle database

    Oracle 11gR2
    RHEL 6.4
    Has anyone use the Oracle ODBC Gateway to connect to another Oracle database?  Any issues with that configuration?  Where do I get the ODBC drivers for Linux?
    (I know, "why not use a dblink?" -- well that would be against company security policies)

    Hi,
       From the Oracle point of view we support using DG4ODBC for Oracle to Oracle connections. However, we have not actually tested it as DG4ODBC is primarily designed for access to non-Oracle databases.
    How DG4ODBC will work between Oracle databases depends on the ODBC driver and what that supports. You will need an ODBC Oracle driver which you can get from various suppliers including Oracle but also vendors such as DataDirect, Easysoft etc. You could try a Google search.
    You say you do not want to use database links but that is how DG4ODBC is used, You cannot do -
    sqlplus user/password@dg4odbc_oracle
    Once Dg4ODBC is setup and configured as in this note - if you are using Linux 64-bit -
    How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install (Doc ID 561033.1)
    then in the Oracle database you create a database link and select from tables in the other Oracle database -
    select * from table@dg4odbc_db_link ;
    Regards,
    Mike
