Oracle inventory location Help

I am facing some issues with oracle inventory locatoin on a 2 node rac setup. The ORACLE_BASE in my .bash_profile is pointing to /u01/ mount point - which is a NFS mounted volume. clusterware installation went sucesful and now when i am trying to install 11g - it says, oracle inventory can not be on a shared volume and quits the installation.
My oracle home directory is \home\oracle\.
system has three mounted directories: /u01/ - /u02/ - /u03/.
/u01/app/oracle/crs - clusterware
/u01/app/oracle/product/11g/ - plan on installaing oracle 11g
/etc/oraInst.log - has the inventory location.
can somebody please suggest - what options do i have here? any input will be greatly appreciated.
many thanks,
shilpa

  • Oracle Central Inventory location

    I need several - let say three to four cantral inventory location (oraInventory) on one server hosting three to four databases.
    The problem is after creating the first database, the other three or four databases default to the first inventory location (oraInventory) created for the first one and does not ask me for a location for a central inventory locaton for the second or other databases.
    Why?
    And if I can make the Oracle 10.2.0.4 software create several inventory locations - how?

    Are you installing Oracle software couple of times or creating databases? What's different inventory locations you need for?Aman
    Yes, I install the software for each oracle database independent of the other database due to the sensitivity of the databases. This also allow us to install CPU packages on the databases in the fields by packaging the CPU and unix scripts. With individual database repository, we can install patches on those databases at once.

  • Oracle Inventory Stock Location in a Subinventory - Locators vs DFF

    Has anyone covered the topic of options for recording the location of an item in a subinventory when the business has a clear rule that an item in a subinventory will only ever exist in one location?
    The functionality in Oracle inventory for locators suggests it is for multiple stock locations in a subinventory.  Using it when applying the above business rule of only one locator per item per subinventory seems to require a lot of data maintenance and transaction data entry for the purposes of being able to identify which asile, row, shelve an item is located at.
    Has anyone provided such a discussion before on the pros and cons of using locators when an item will only exist in one location within a subinventory vs the use of a DFF field on the item/subinventory record to be used for reporting and lookup purposes for location information?

    Why dont you use Item-subinventory restriction?
    Thanks,

  • Query Related to Oracle Inventory

    I have to prepare a report in Oracle Inventory (R12) where I have to extract below fields
    1. Inventory Quantity Sold for previous days and weekly basis etc
    2. Quantity Physically on a shelf at a distribution center but commited to end customer
    3. Quantity transfeerd from one or more distribution center within distributor
    4. Quantity on order with manufacturer but not yet received
    5.Quantity Intransit (Intercompany Transfer to the location)
    But I am unable to derive those fields. Please help me to build the query to fetch those fields.

    should I remove those PGA configuration and make it manually for sort_area,hash_join and workarea policy?Well, it depends on your database.
    First, check statspack/awr and see if you are doing "disk sorts", and check your ratio of nested loop joins to hash joins:
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_viewing_cpu_ram_io_costs.htm
    Manual setting "alter session" commands, is, well, manual, and it would be best to let Oracle take care of it, IMHO.
    Hope this helps. . .

    Of course, thoroughly. Ok. Like I said, it surprising how often people don't check that, so we always ask first.
    Have you run into this error,
    or a similar one, before? No. Have installed 9.2 on several Solaris boxes without a problem, so have not directly seen this one.
    Do you have an applicable

  • Query on Oracle Spatial Locational Analysis

    Hi,
    I am working on Oracle Spatial Locational Analysis.
    It was very interesting to see an example in this below mentioned URL.
    http://technet.oracle.com/products/oracle9i/htdocs/9iober2/obe9ir2/download/obe-cnt_spatial.zip
    The procedure mentioned is very clear but have some clarifications in between.
    After creating the tables customers and warehouses, there aren't any .sql files where the data is feeded in to these two tables. With out the above mentioned step, in the procedure it is told to execute loc_updates.sql which updates any of the rows since if you look at the syntax in loc_updates.sql file it shows update the table customers whose customer_id=344.
    Do we have to manually enetred the customer_id values?
    Did Oracle miss uploading any .sql files?
    I would very grateful if one could help me in this regard.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Nandakishore.

    Nice to have a EXPERT in this FORUM...!!
    Hi Dan, if you look at my reply I mentioned that I had loaded loc_updates.sql
    From my previous reply:
    execute loc_updates.sql which doenot update any of the rows since if you look at the syntax in loc_updates.sql file it shows update the table customers whose customer_id=344.
    Where is this customer_id=344 coming from?
    Also the datatype is a number.
    Dan, were you able to get the results as desired?
    or may be I am missing something...
    Thanks and Regards,

  • HTS Number /Commodity Code in Oracle inventory

    Hi,
    I was trying to figure out, how HTS Number for US can be set up in Oracle Inventory. Any help pls?
    Thanks!

    Thanks Sandeep! But we also need to capture the country, Tariff code primary and secondary UOM's together with duty rates. Any suggestiong?
    You can assign multiple categories to an item.
    Define a category set to capture Commoddity codes.
    Define another category set to capture Country and then yet another one for Taxation info.
    You can also choose to merge these into one category with 4-5 segments if it makes logical sense.
    For secondary uom , use the secondary uom field on item master.

  • Corruption of Oracle Inventory by installing ADF runtime libraries?

    Hi,
    We are running OAS 10.1.2.2.0 on RedHat Enterprise Linux and I am deploying an ADF application from JDev 10.1.3.39.84.
    I downloaded the standalone installer for the adf runtime libraries installer from here:
    http://download.oracle.com/otn/java/jdeveloper/10132/extensions/adfinstaller.zip
    and installed it to our development server. I then deployed the ADF application and it seems to work just fine.
    Now I have requested that these libraries be installed to the production server but the Sys Admin has informed me that:
    "Your installation appears to have corrupted the 'Oracle Inventory' on the development server. This can affect upgrades, patching, etc."
    I have been asked to investigate if this is a known issue and what possible resolutions there might be for preserving/restoring the Oracle Inventory to enable continued maintenance of the servers.
    I have searched the forums and Metalink without success, so I am posting this query to see if anyone else can help me point me in the right direction.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    Hi,
    please file a service request with customer support. This way you have an analyst working with you to track down the issue. Because ADF libraries are copying jar files only and this is nothing you can re-do after wards, I would be surprised if it has anything to do with the Oracle inventory. However still it would be good to have customer support looking at this

  • Patching 10gr2 RAC, Oracle inventory on a CFS

    I have 4-node HP-UX VCS5 Oracle10g RAC setup running in production environment. First time i am trying to apply latest patch bundle. I am trying to apply 10.2.0.4 patch set.
    I am getting the bellow error when i am applying the patch.
    "Central Invventory can't be shared, this is not supported"
    The ORACLE_BASE is on a cluster file system.
    To ignore this error and to proceed with patch installation, what steps we need to take ?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Looks like you have run into an always documented restriction which has now been enforced with the OUI in the 10.2.0.4 patchset.
    The documentation which mentioned that Shared Central Inventories are not recommended / supported is available at :
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/em.102/b16227/oui6_cluster_environment.htm#BABGJAAF
    <Quote>
    The Oracle Inventory directory (oraInventory) stores an inventory of all software installed on the system. It is required by, and shared by, all Oracle software installations on a single system. The first time you install Oracle software on a system, Oracle Universal Installer prompts you to specify the path to this directory. If you are installing the software on a local file system, then Oracle recommends that you choose the following path:
    oracle_base/oraInventory
    If the Oracle base directory is on a cluster file system, or on an NFS file system on a NAS device, then you must specify a path for the Oracle Inventory directory on a local file system. The Oracle base directory must be on a local file system to enable all of the nodes to have separate inventories.
    Oracle Universal Installer creates the directory that you specify, and sets the correct owner, group, and permissions for it. You do not need to create it.
    <un-quote>
    What has changed with the 10.2.0.4 Installer is that Oracle now enforces this restriction. What I believe is that without this being enforced , there was a possibility of running into Central Inventory corruption issues when Clustered and Non-Clustered installs were being done on the same node.
    I also found this discussion on one of the Metalink threads which might be useful.
    Please contact Oracle Support prior to attempting these steps though.
    Quoting Oracle:
    It is not supported to have central inventory on a shared location. There was a bug.5009954 "OUI SHOULD ENFORCE SEPARATE CENTRAL INVENTORY LOCATIONS IN RAC" filled on this issue. This bug is fixed in 11.2. It is actually an OUI issue which doesn't perform a check to make sure that central inventory location is not on shared device.
    In order to fix the inventory, you can change the OH/oraInst.loc in the CRS home to point to a non-shared directory.
    Run <crs>/oui/bin/attachhome.sh -silent -local -cfs CRS=true -invPtrLoc <crs>/oraInst.loc on each of the nodes. Finally copy the oraInst.loc to the /etc/oraInst.loc.

  • Change permission for Oracle inventory.

    When I installed Oracle 10gR2, I have specified dba group for Oracle inventory as it was a primary group for Oracle user. Now I want to change the group to orainstall. Is it possible to do that now with out affecting Oracle software or residing databases and do I need to specify orainstall as primary group and dba as secondary group?
    If anyone does have good doc or link for rebuilding orainventory, please send it across.
    Appreciate your help!!!

    But you can always use any other name for dba group -
    like dba92, or dba99, or aaa, or even oinstall as the
    dba group. Same thing with the "oinstall" as well,
    Oracle binary DOES NOT recognize the character - just
    the group ID, of "oinstall".
    Correct me if I am wrong.
    Thanks.Of course you can pickup whatever name you like, but you need to decide your group name before installation. After installation if you plan to change the 'dba' group name, you need to modify config.s file and recompile Oracle executables.
