11.2.0.2 upgrade of 2 databases in one home

hi *
we have new "patch" (full install) for 11.2 on linux.
I have upgraded the grid.
Then I upgraded my first database (and its binaries) with option "Out-of-place" - recommended (new home dir, no problem).
Now I wonder how to upgrade my 2nd db runing in the same home as the 1st did...
When starting this same upgrade it makes me to choose ANOTHER home. How to upgrade just db without installing new home??

You actually upgraded your software(binaries) and need just upgrade your database(second) using DBUA or manually.Start database with upgrade option
sqlplus "/as sysdba"
startup upgrade;
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catupgrd.sql;
shutdown immediate;
startup;
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql;

After upgrading to Lion, I went to open Mail and received the message that it needed to upgrade my Mail database - this may take a few minutes. The bar shows it is about 1/5 along and has been there for over 10 hours.
I tried quitting and starting again but it just jumps back to the same spot.

It is quite large, but I have tried two of the fixes suggested and things now seem to be moving along.

High CPU Usage On client application when upgrade remote SQL database

Hi,
Is anyone here encountered very high CPU usage after upgraded the database from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012? Following describes my issue.
I have my client application running on Windows 7 that access to central database (SQL 2005) on Windows server 2003 using ODBC connection, this client application basically query data and perform data insert and update. There are a number of this similar
clients connected to the database.
Due to slowness of the database server, company decided to upgrade the database server to SQL 2012 and also new hardware runing Windows Server 2012. There is no change on the client application and client hardware and the client application still using the
same ODBC connection to query, insert or update the new database server.
The problem I am now experiencing now is that my client PC where my client application running the CPU usage is very high almost hitting 100% when accessing to the central database. I am also noticed this program lsass.exe that utilized almost 40-50% of
the CPU time when client application accessing the central database.
Is anyone here know, why client PC CPU usage 100% when access to upgraded SQL 2012 database? What is lsass.exe program doing, it only appear when accessing to database server. How to reduce the CPU usage on client?
Thanks.

SCCM 2012 R2 SQL Database Upgrade Fails : Setup cannot upgrade the ConfigMgr database. Contact your SQL administrator.

Hi Friends,
We have planned to upgrade our SCCM 2012 SP1 infrastructure to SCCM 2012 R2 so we have setup test environment to test SQL database upgrade before doing same in production.
But while testing SQL database upgrade on test machine, it is getting failed with below error.
ConfigMgrSetupWizard.log

ConfigMgrSetupWizard Verbose: 1 : Received error [Setup cannot upgrade the ConfigMgr database. Contact your SQL administrator.] from native code.

Can anyone please help to get this resolved.
Thanks.

We found out that there were duplicate entries in the PkgStatus_G and the PkgServers_G tables in the SCCM DB. We identified them, deleted them , and then we were able to run the /TESTDBUPGRADE command and it went through fine. We performed
all of this on a COPY of the PROD DB and then moved the changes in PROD. Hope this helps someone.

How to upgrade from oracle database 10g 10.1.0.3 to 10.1.0.5 or 10.2.0.4

I have a oracle database 10g version 10.1.0.3 on solaris 10 x86. I can't find the recent patches suitable to my database.
How can I upgrade it to 10.1.0.5 or higher (10.2.0.4)?
Thanks.

take a looks at this metalink doc for all upgrade needs...
sub: Complete checklist for manual upgrades of Oracle databases from anyversion to any version on any platform (documents only from 7.3.x>>8.0.x>>8.1.x>>9.0.x>>9.2.x>>10.1.x>>10.2.x>>11.1.x)

Poor performance on Discoverer after upgrade to 11g database

Hello,
We have two customers who have experienced a sharp decline in the time it takes to run their queries when they have upgraded to an 11g database.
One was a full Disco upgrade from 4 to 10 plus the database upgrade.
The other was purely a database upgrade - Discoverer version was already 10g.
They were both on 9i database.
They are both Oracle Apps - and the reports are based on a mixture of everything from standard tables to custom tables - there is no pattern (or one that we have seen) in the poorly performing reports.
I have not seen much on metalink regarding this - has anyone else come across why this would be?
It does seem to be only Discoverer - standard reports and the app are performing as expected.
Any advice welcome,
Thanks
Rachael

Hi Rachael
There are additional database privileges needed for running in 10g and 11g databases that weren't needed in 9i. Here's the typical privileges that I use:
accept username prompt'Enter Username: '
accept pword prompt'Enter Password: '
create user &username identified by &pword;
grant connect, resource to &username;
grant analyze any to &username;
grant create procedure, create sequence to &username;
grant create session, create table, create view to &username;
grant execute any procedure to &username;
grant global query rewrite to &username;
grant create any materialized view to &username;
grant drop any materialized view to &username;
grant alter any materialized view to &username;
grant select any table, unlimited tablespace to &username;
grant execute on sys.dbms_job to &username;
grant select on sys.v_$parameter to &username;
I appreciate that all of the above are not needed for all users and some are only needed if the user is going to be scheduling.
However, I do know that sys.v_$parameter was not needed in 9i. Can you check whether you have this assigned?
I know this might sound silly too, but you need to refresh your database statistics in order for Discoverer to work well. You might also want to try turning off the query predictor if it is still enabled.
Best wishes
Michael

Upgrade of RAC database in 10g or 11g

Hi,
Can we upgrade RAC database without downtime like we do patch?

RegardsHi,
The Oracle Clusterware software always fully supports rolling upgrades, while the ASM software is rolling upgradeable at version 11.1.0.6 and beyond.
Rolling upgrade: we mean upgrading software (Oracle Database, Oracle Clusterware, ASM or the OS itself) while the cluster is operational by shutting down a node, upgrading the software on that node, and then reintegrating it into the cluster, and so forth one node at a time until all the nodes in the cluster are at the new software level.
For the Oracle Database software (RAC), it is possible only for certain single patches that are marked as rolling upgrade compatible. Most Bundle patches and Critical Patch Updates (CPU) are rolling upgradeable. Patchsets and DB version (10g to 11g) changes are not supported in a rolling fashion, one reason that this may be impossible is that across major releases, there may be incompatible versions of the system tablespace, for example. To upgrade these in a rolling fashion one will need to use a logical standby with Oracle Database 10g or 11g.

Upgrading Sharepoint Content Database from 2008R2 sql server to SQL Server 2012

I am doing an upgrade of SharePoint 2010 to 2013.
What is the best way for the SharePoint database in 2008 to upgrade to 2012.
attaching just the backup of content database should work or there is some other considerations as well along with.
Are there any known issues while upgrading the SharePoint database from 2008 to 2012.
this is not an in place upgrade.
kukdai

If I may continue this question. I am upgrading MSSQL 2008 to MSSQL 2012. This box contains all of the DBs for our Sharepoint installation. I am not a Sharepoint admin, I am a DBA. So let me get this straight , from what I read up above all I
have to do is just go through the standard procedure of upgrading SQL server 2008 to 2012 and the sharepoint DBs will upgrade with it w/o an issue. Are there any gotchas with SSRS?
My SQL box runs WIN 2008 and has all necessary MSoft updates.

Rolling upgrade in MAA database with 2 node RAC on each site

All,
I have 2 node rac on SITE A, and it has Physical Standby database on SITE B it also 2 node RAC. Currently it is on 10.2.0.4 on AIX systems. We have mission crictical application runing and we can't aford the downtime of 5 to 6 hr to upgrade our CRS,ASM,DB oracle homes to 11G or even 10.2.0.5. I read rolling upgrade document on metalink and also documnet as well, and come up with following sequence.
SITE A==Primary Site, SITE B == Standby database
1) Shutdown DB on SITE B
2) Take the OS Level Backup of Binaries only on SITE B (Both node), I think this is just a Precautionary Measure
3) Start the DB on SITE B Still Physical Standby database let it synch with primary Site SITE A
4) Convert SITE B to Logical standby database
5) let it run for some time and be the two site SYNCH
6) now stop archivelog shipping to STANDBY SITE SITE B
7) Shutdown SITE B and apply the patch/upgrade binaries (CRS/ASM/DB)
8) Start and upgrade the DB on SITE B
9) Start the logical standby apply (SQL APPLY) and let it catch up with SITE A
10) Now Switchover to logical standby database on SITE B and ask application to connect to SITE B
11) Make sure the archivelogs are moving from SITE B to SITE A and SQL Apply is runing.
12) Now Stop archive log flow from SITE B to SITE A
13) Stop the database/ASM/CRS on SITE A
14) upgrade the SITE A binaries (CRS/ASM/DB)
15) Start and upgrade the DB on SITE A
16) Start the logical standby apply (SQL APPLY) and let it catch up with SITE B
17) Now Switchover Back to SITE A and let the application connect to SITE A
At this point by SITE B is a Logical Standby database
I think these summaries the steps involved in rolling upgrade, but I can't understand how I can go back to my MAA with physical standby database mode?
Does anyone has done this? Can anyone give me some tips or comments on my steps??
Help me if you can... thanks in advance.

Hi,
Is it you want to know the OS/Kernel side setting? You must comply with the following kernel requirements to install the clusterware.

10R2 Upgrade on Linux stuck upgrading Oracle XML database

Folks,
I am upgrading Oracle from 10g r1 to r2 (10.1.0.4 to 10.2.0.1). This is not a large database. Size is around 70gb. It is taking forever to upgrade Oracle XML database. It is running for over 20 hours now.
I checked the logs and nothing seems to be an issue. Did not get any erros.
Any idea why xml database upgrade would take so long?.
I Appreciate your replies.

Upgrade PHYSICAL STANDBY database to 10g from 9i

Hello everybody,
Please can you provide me the details for Manual upgrading 9i STANDBY database to 10g. Any special parameters that we have to set on the Primary database..
Any sites with the information available would be great.
Thanks everybody for your help.

There is no in-place upgrade process to move from 9i to 10g. You have to upgrade your primary and then reinstantiate your standby (using Oracle10g). You may like to keep your 9i standby in tact until your upgrade of 9i primary to 10g is completely successful.....just to ensure that you have a fast, easy and reliable fall-back plan.
Thanks

Oracle 10 upgrade - Primary & standby database

Hi Expert,
I need some information on your project experience. We're currently planning a oracle 10 upgrade. Have a few question:
1. We're planning to upgrade the primary database first and a week later the standby database. Will the archive log which is sent from primary to standby database will still work? Will the recovery still work?
2. Is this the right patch to go 10.2.0.4? I'm currently on 4.7 ext 2
3. Will there be a performance issue known of oracle 10 running on 32-bit machine, since it has the limitation of the memory (3G). Do I need to set AWE option on windows?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Sean,
please let me go more in detail with some of your comments.
> I actually posted my experience with doing a rolling upgrade of a PHYSICAL standby database.
This statement is wrong. You can't do a rolling upgrade with a physical standby database. You have to convert the database to a logical standby database .. and then you can perform a rolling upgrade. But if you have done the conversion, it is not a physical anymore.
This is also described and mentioned in this white paper:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/deploy/availability/pdf/maa_wp_10gr2_rollingupgradebestpractices.pdf
Data Guard SQL Apply (logical standby database) is required in order to perform a database rolling upgrade. You can also do a rolling upgrade when starting with a physical standby by temporarily converting the physical standby to a logical standby. If starting with 11g, see the Rolling Database Upgrades for Physical Standby Databases using Transient Logical Standby 11g paper for details on doing a rolling upgrade when starting with a physical standby. If starting with 10g, see MetaLink note 300479.1.
> It WILL work, and is fairly straight forward.
In this point you are almost correct, because of a standard SAP system is not using the unsupported data types, etc. (afaik)
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/data_support.htm
To be honest if a sap basis admin asks such a question, i would not recommend to perform an unsupported way, because i am in doubt about his dataguard know how.

Stefan
