Hai all
Its about a up gradation project, I’m totally new to this server up gradation projects
Can someone guide me
1. what are all the things that we should be knowing before going for a sever up gradation from oracle 8i to oracle 9i
( i.e.) like a checklist
2. what are the common issues we may face
3. how it can be done effectively
4. what are all the things we should ask from the client ( apart from their requirement ….)for our references

Oracle8i and Oracle9i with BWLS5.1

Hi, I need help!!!
I ve a Oracle8i and an Oracle9i connection pools in WLS 5.1
The Oracle9i connection pool is not stable, and have been told to upgrad the drivers for it. I wonder if there is any problem use connection pool to an Oracle8i and Oracle9i, without any conflicts.
Can WLS5.1 handle it? how should I do ?
Pleaaaase!
regards / John Cokoulo

Hi Sree,
Sorry, I was wrong, I found the JDBC drivers for the Oracle9i.
The JDBC pack contains the OCI and Thin drivers.
Thanks alot.
best regards, John.

Hi Sree,
thanks alot for your help!
I was looking for Oracle 9i Thin driver, but could not find any!
The only I could find was Oracle 9i thin JDBC driver for Mac OS X.
and thanks again for your help.

Hi John,
WebLogic jDriver for Oracle 9i is not available for WLS5.1. Its only
available for WLS6.1SP2 and above.
I suggest you use the Oracle thin driver from Oracle to connect to the
9i
database.
when you download and install the 9i thin driver, the connection pool
can be
configured as,
weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.O9iPool=\
url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@9imachinename:port:SID,\
driver=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver,\
loginDelaySecs=1,\
initialCapacity=5,\
maxCapacity=12,\
capacityIncrement=2,\
allowShrinking=true,\
shrinkPeriodMins=15,\
refreshMinutes=12,\
props=user=o9iusr;password=o9ipwd;weblogic.oci.min_bind_size=660
You cannot use two different OCI drivers at the same time to create
Connection pools in a single server.

Hi Sree, thanks for your help... now this information is what I got.
Some data:
ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/product/8.1.7
PATH includes $ORACLE_HOME/bin
My ld library path include the oracle driver: oci815_8:$ and ORACLE_HOME/lib
As I can see is the oci815_8 in use.
weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.O8iPool=\
url=jdbc:weblogic:oracle,\
driver=weblogic.jdbc.oci.Driver,\
loginDelaySecs=1,\
initialCapacity=5,\
maxCapacity=12,\
capacityIncrement=2,\
allowShrinking=true,\
shrinkPeriodMins=15,\
refreshMinutes=12,\
props=user=o8iusr;password=o8ipwd;server=O8iServer;weblogic.oci.min_bind_siz
e=2000
weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.O9iPool=\
url=jdbc:weblogic:oracle,\
driver=weblogic.jdbc.oci.Driver,\
loginDelaySecs=1,\
initialCapacity=5,\
maxCapacity=12,\
capacityIncrement=2,\

shrinkPeriodMins=15,\
refreshMinutes=12,\
props=user=o9iusr;password=o9ipwd;server=O9iServer;weblogic.oci.min_bind_siz
e=660
Now Can I Make Tow Connection Pools To Oracle With Different Drivers
Like Let The O8i Go To The Old oci815_8 Drivers,
And Install New Oci Drivers For The Oracle9i ??????

Can you post the connection pool properties url and driver, they should

Hi,
I dont know exactly what driver we use, but I know that the same driver
is
in
use for bothe 8i and 9i. And I know that the driver is old, (from 2000).
The behavior is that connection duo the 9i are rollin back sometimes,
about
30%
of all transactions are rolling back.
Thats why I ve been told to use newer drivers (9i drivers).
So, yes, I see exceptions, roll back exceptions of the transactionsthat
are
trying
to connect to the database pool.
But I wonder how to do that, and how can I see exactly what driver
we
use
now?
Please help me!!!!

John,
What driver are you using to connect to 8i and 9i? What is the behavior
you
are seeing with the pool connections, when you say pool is not stable?
do
you see any exceptions/hangs ?
Also ensure that you have testConnsOnReserve=true (on the 9i pool)
so
that
the connections get recreated if they go bad.

Jeremiah,
We ran into this as well. One of two options:
1.) Just run a repair on the SQL Server installation
2.) Repair the WMI settings on the SQL Server as descibed here:

Data source migration in parallel to CRM server upgradation

Hi Experts,
We are working on BI 7.0 system which pulls data from CRM 2004. Recently we upgraded BI environment from BW3.5 (to BI.70 SP -16).
Now we are re-modeling the existing BI design due to performance issues & to use BI functionalities. We would like to migrate the data sources in BI also to BI version so that we can get advantage of using DTP & transformations.
But the issue here is now we started to up grade our source system also from CRM 2004 --> CRM 2007. I beleive that the data source version will be maintained in source system (CRM) tables also.
So if we migrate the data source now (before CRM upgrade), will it cause any issues in BI once CRM server upgrade done?
Note: We can implement all of our new designs with out data source migration.
Please advice us to proceed. Let me know if you need more details.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Arun Thangaraj.

Hi reddy,
1). Why Migration Process?
Migration process is to convert BW 3.x objects ( such as Data source, Trasfer rules and update rules etc) into BI 7.0 objests.
2). Why we are Migrating BW 3.X objects into 7.0 objects?
We are Migrating 3.x data source into 7.0 inorder to avail three functions, Those are
a). Direct data acquisition
b). Realtime Data Acquisition (RDA)
c). BI Accelarator.
3) .Regarding With export and Withour export options ?
These two options come in the process of Migration step. Regarding these options clearly described in the fourth point as bellow.
4). What will happen in this Migration process?
( Remember at the time Migration Transfer structure and Transfer rlues deleted, keep in mind go throgh bellow steps).
What ever may be the option selected (i.e, With Export or Without export ) data source will migrate to 7.0.
But if you choose With export option deleted Transfer Structure and Trasfer Rules will store in the table " RSDSEXPORT". If you select other option (i.e, Without export ) the deleted Trasfer structure and trasfer rules perminently not avaliable.
Thats why always go with With Export option only. This will help to revert back 7.0 data source into 3.5 data source when ever is there any requirement in future.
Please go look into bellow link.
Re: Migration of datasource from 3.5 to 7.0
if u r satisfed about my answer please assign points.
Thanks & Regards,

Export tables form Oracle8 to SQL Server 7.0

Hello
I use Dts (data transformation service) to export tables/data form Oracle8 to SQL Server 7.0. It seems to work fine, but somehow escape charecters like carrige return and spaces,are presented as a '' sign in SQL Server. How can I avoid this during the export of data from Oracle.(I do want to use a trigger to remove them afterwards !)Please help
Regards Ivan

CORRECTION !
Bottom line should read:
(I do NOT want to use a trigger to remove them afterwards !)

XA : Oracle8 and Oracle9

I using Tuxedo8.0 ..and I need to use XA with both Oracle8 and Oracle9...
This time is using only Oracle8, Two-Phase commit, and next year we have to join
with Oracle9.
Then I would like to know Can I use XA across Oracle8 and Oracle9...
What is RM file for Oracle9?
Regards,
Yos

Hello Yos,
XA transactions can span multiple RDBMSes... There may be limitations/problems
as every RDBMS has a different implementation and hence do not work the same way.
The base rule is: You can definitely have a single XA transaction across Oracle,
Informix and DB2. So, your scenario of XA transactions across Oracle 8 and 9 databases
should work..
For RM file entry, please refer Oracle/Tuxedo documentations. Oracle 8.x RM file
entry may also work fine with Oracle 9.x. Just give it a try.

Oracle8i to SQL Server Connectivity Errors

I am having following error messages while setting up the ODBC connectivity between Oracle8i and SQL Server 7. I want to access SQL Server 7 tables from within Oracle8i. I have followed all the instruction of Oracle Generic Connectity document and have tested ODBC connection with ODBCPING as well as with TNSPING, these shows correct connectivity. I have also created Database Link within Oracle8i for SQL Server. After that when I access the SQL Server table from within Oracle I get the following error message.
ORA-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process
Could any body suggestion the solution please.
Thanks and regards,

SAP Content Server Upgrade from 6.3 to 6.4 & MaxDB 7.3 to 7.8

Dear Experts,
We are in planning of upgrade SAP Content server from 6.3 to 6.4 and MaxDB from 7.3 build 35 to 7.8.
For Content server upgrade is that we need to install the Content server 6.4 and install the latest MaxDB 7.8 and export and import the data.
We are on Win 2003 32 Bit and we are migrating to win 2008 R2 64 Bit.
Is it possible directly using database copy and restoring in MaxDB 7.8 version?
Or we need to use loadercli for migrating the data.
As per the SDN Link http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1649661
for content server upgrade is by replacing latest dll files at the respective dir.
Pls let me know your views and known issues.
Thank You,
Mahesh

Action 15.0.0.1 of Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Upgrade.FullFarmDependentProjectDatabaseSequence failed

Hi
I try to upgrade a Project Server 2010 environment to 2013. When I run
upgrade-spprojectwebinstance
it fails with:
Action 15.0.0.1 of Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Upgrade.FullFarmDependentProjectDatabaseSequence failed
Anyone seen this error?
Thanks

Hi Xtenser
try to check the ULS log. There might be a hint, that there is a blocking job in the Project Server Queue. This can block the upgrade process.

SQL Server Upgrade Advisor 2014 - Database Compatibility Level checking

I have the following scenario... I have a database server running SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.4260). On that server I restored a database from SQL Server 2005. Looking at the compatibility level through the properties of the database (using SSMS) and
by querying against sys.databases, I can see the database has the compatibility level of 90, which is what I expected.
In looking to bring this database over to a SQL Server 2014 database server, I have run the SQL Server Upgrade Advisor 2014 tool as well as the SQL Server Upgrade Advisor 2012 tool. With the 2014 tool, my expectation would be that it would warn me
that the compatibility level will be upgraded to 10 (or something), however, I received no such warning. I ran the 2012 version of the tool as well, expecting that I might get a deprecation warning (or something), no such luck. I have run the 2014
tool from my computer and from another one, same results.
Does the upgrade advisor not check for the compatibility level? Or does my configuration maybe have something to do with it (having it on a 2008 R2 server)? From looking at screenshots of when other people have ran the tool, I was under the impression
it checked this. See the link below for an example...
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mspfe/archive/2012/12/06/sql-server-upgrade-advisor-considerations-when-upgrading-from-sql-2000-to-sql-2012.aspx
Thoughts anyone?

Lydia,
I agree with regards to the 2012 version. However, in SQL Server 2014, upgrading a database with a compatibility level of 90 sets
the database to compatibility level 100. See link below...
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb510680.aspx
Shouldn't the 2014 version of the advisor tool issue the same warning seen in the screenshot of the msdn blog post we both mentioned? As in... "After upgrade, compatibility levels <list of levels>, will be set to 100".
Hi JJordheim,
According to my test, SQL Server 2014 Upgrade Advisor also only raise warning when database compatibility level is less than 90 in the “SQL Server Parameters” page.
From your description, when database compatibility level is set to 90, SQL Server 2014 Upgrade Advisor should also raise warning, right? If so , this is a design issue of SQL Server 2014 Upgrade Advisor, personally, I recommend you
submit a feedback to the Microsoft Connect at this link
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/Feedback . Your feedback enables Microsoft to offer the best software and deliver superior services.
Thanks,

10.6.8 to Mavericks Server Upgrade loses Open Directory Users

Hi,
I have an OpenDirectory Master running OSX Server 10.6.8. An upgrade to Mavericks 10.9 has just failed.
The server has about 50 OD users and passwords need to be retained across the upgrade. Apart from OD, the only other active service is AFP file sharing.
DNS is good forward and back as per this article: OS X Server: Steps to take before upgrading or migrating the Open Directory database
I followed these Apple guidelines for server migration: OS X Server: Upgrade and migration from Lion Server or Snow Leopard Server.
I cloned the boot drive, booted from the clone, upgraded to Mavericks, then installed the Mavericks Server app.
On opening the Mavericks Server app "Configuring services' showed for 5 minutes, but then an error message appeared. I did not record it exactly, but it was something like, "There was an error configuring the server. Certificate not valid!".
I was able to continue through the error but on opening Server app there were no OD (local/network) users showing. Authentication was not happening.
I had underestimated the time to get the installation done and I had used up the window of downtime I had booked - I did not have much time to troubleshoot. So, I cut back to the original hard drive and the server is back to 10.6.8 again.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to find out what may have gone wrong? How can I get my users into 10.9 Server?
Many thanks,
b.

Linc Davis advice is spot-on, as usual.
There seem to be dozens of sub-databases in the LDAP database. A problem in any of them seems to derail the entire conversion process. I tried a straight conversion and was also disappointed that there were unresolved issues, and it meant that the conversion failed.
So I did the export route using WorkGroup Manager, and exported four sets:
Users
Groups
Computers
Computer groups
go to the appropriate pane (e.g., Users) and Select All, then choose Export, and give it a name (probably with an embedded date in case you need to do it again later)
Then use 10.9 WorkGroup Manager (available as a separate download) to Import.
When re-imported, everything worked just fine (except the passwords, which cannot be carried forward using this method). I did have to manually enable at least one service, such as File Sharing service in Server [admin], or users showed up as "not allowed" [to log in].
This entire process of getting Server 3 to work is fraught with peril, and everything converges on ONE diagnostic, "Network users can't log in". Which means you blew it, but provides no additional information about WHERE you blew it.
There do not appear to be any magic bullets. It is just a tough slog. Users who reported success after failing the first time reported they returned to fundamental principles and did all the steps over, in order, to attain success.

OO4O - Oracle8i vs Oracle9i

Can the latest version of OO4O be used for both Oracle8i and Oracle9i?
Thanks

Hi
Reports is good for standard reports which are used often (daily or weekly) and 'never' change.
Disco good for ad-hoc reporting, analyzing.
See the documentation in OTN.

Recover during systemcopy between Oracle8 and Oracle9

Hello!
This is my first question in a forum, therefore sorry for mistakes.
We perform a systemcopy from Oracle8 to Oracle9. If we use a Offline-Backup there is no problem. After the restore we migrate the databse to Oracle9 and everything is ok
Now we try to use a Online-Backup for this. The restore is no problem but the recovery of the database end with following error:

I don't think, that the Redologs are corrupt. Have anybode an idea, what should i do???
Thomas

Hello!
I don't think so. Because i got this message for every log since 89797. Every try to recover the database i got this message for the next log.
It is possible to recover a Oracle8-Databse to a Oracle9 Database during systemcopy?
Thomas
