11i eBiz RAC 9i database cloning to a envronment with existing 10g CRS

production is 9.2.0.8 RAC Need to clone production to lower instance using Rapid Clone. Has done such clone before.
The new issue is there is an another 10g RAC database with 10g Clusterware has been installed in this server and the cloned 9i RAC need to co-exist with this 10g RAC database.
I am thinking to use 10g clusterware to manager 9i RAC database.
From cloning point of view, how to clone a 9i RAC database to an environment with 10g clusterare.
Should I use 9i oracle home 9.2.0/appsutil/clone/bin/adcfgclone.pl or should I use 10g oracle home adcfgclone.pl?

Hi,
production is 9.2.0.8 RAC Need to clone production to lower instance using Rapid Clone. Has done such clone before.I did not try this type of clone before. However, I believe you cannot use 10g ORACLE_HOME as cloning 11i instance with Rapid Clone on 10g database requires additional manual steps which cannot be applied to the 9i ORACLE_HOME. From Rapid Clone point of view, I believe you need to issue adcfgclone.pl from the 9i ORACLE_HOME

Cloning/Moving webpart pages with existing webparts

Hi All,
        We need to support clone/move of the webpart pages with pre populated webparts. We have our custom webpart page layout. Users can create webpart page using our custom page layout and can add webparts init. On cloning
of the webpart page we just read the file(webpart page) from the document libary and saving it with different name in the same document library. But the cloned page does not retain the webparts added to it. The user can view only the empty webpart page layout.
Please suggest me how to move/clone the webpart page with the existing webparts.
Thanks,
R.Prakash

Hi Florin,
            Thanks a lot for your help.
            Based on your suggestion we completed the cloning of the WebPart pages.
Code snippet:
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
                using (SPSite site = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.ID))
                    using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
                        SPLimitedWebPartCollection lstWebPart = null;
                        web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
                        using (SPLimitedWebPartManager webPartManager =
                                    SPContext.Current.Web.GetLimitedWebPartManager("Pages/BaseWebPartPage.aspx,
PersonalizationScope.Shared))
                            lstWebPart = webPartManager.WebParts;
                        using (SPLimitedWebPartManager webPartManager =
                                     SPContext.Current.Web.GetLimitedWebPartManager("Pages/ClonedWebPartPage.aspx, PersonalizationScope.Shared))
                            foreach (WebPart webPart in lstWebPart)
    webPartManager.AddWebPart(webPart, webPart.Zone.Id, webPart.ZoneIndex);
                                web.Update();

2 Node RAC standby database

Hi,
I am planning to create a 2-node RAC physical standby database which uses ASM from 2-node RAC production database. I am familiar with RMAN duplicate (11g) network based backup to create the physical standby database, but not sure how this will work to create 2-node RAC standby with ASM.
Could any help me with the document ID which describes how to create a RAC standby database using ASM as storage.
Source:
OS: Linux 64 bit
Oracle: 11.2.0.1
RAC/ASM: yes/yes
Target:
OS: Linux 64 bit
Oracle: 11.2.0.1
RAC/ASM: yes/yes
Thanks in advance!!
Regards,

Hi
You can follow following...
1.Install crs.
2.Create ASM instance at standby site...
3.Prepare parameter file for standby database.
4.start database instance in one node at nomount state..
5.create standby control file at primary database...
6.Copy and paste created control file at primary to standby site..
7.Copy control file at file system and modify location of control file at init<SID>.ora.
8.start standby database mount state..
9.create backup text backup controlfile at primary site...
10.shutdown standby database,change location of controfile inside ASM.. and place nomount state...
11.Create controfile through text backup controfile...
12.backup primary db and paste it in standby site..
13.Use RMAN to place datafile inside ASM..if you not using RMAN for backup and restoration purpose..
14.start standby database in mount state and recover through MRP or foreground process..
15.use SRVCTL to register ASM instances..database and database instances.
For standby database of RAC..there can only be one node up...So..remember you can start instance of one node only...
Hope this will help U.

make sure u have remote_login_password_file=exclusive in clone database pfile,,,,
reload the listener,,, with replacing hostname with the ip address of the machine.....
also take care of global_db_name ..
i will post a sample of listener file it may work 4 u..

RAC enabled database binaries vs non-RAC enabled binaries

We have a 5 node cluster in which we will be installing Oracle database binaries onto and creating Oracle databases on, some of which will be standalone and most of which will be RAC enabled.
Is there a difference in 10g RDBMS binaries that are "cluster enabled" versus a single node 10g binary install? Can non-RAC enabled databases use the same set of RAC enabled database binaries? I don't want to install two Oracle home's....
Hopefully that question makes sense. Thanks in advance for your input.

Well, this is a RAC database on AIX so not sure whether checking only libknlopt.a is enough on AIX.
I did not good answer from Oracle support also regarding same question.
I know, if I have RAC DB Binary installed and want to convert to Non RAC, you compile with rac_off option or even set cluster_database to false.
While confusing part is whether Reverse is TRUE i.e. if you have NON RAC DB Binary and then you relink with rac_on option and now you have RAC enabled true. I am not clear on this statement.

RMAN database cloning

1)While cloning using RMAN when we say " duplicaicate target database to testdb" will RMAN apply archives which are not archived (uning "backup database archivelog all") or not.
2) Why do we need to connect to the target (rman target=prod@toprod auxillary=/ catalog=cat@tocat ( i.e source db... this db we are cloning form).
we have the backup of the backup's in a say NFS mout and we have info about backup in the catalog?

Hello;
Dan's version question is important because Oracle 11 has many additional duplication options.
That's said if you copy the archive to the remote server it will use them in both Oracle 10 and 11.
Here's my Oracle 11 - Duplicating a Database to a Remote Host with the Same Directory Structure short notes :

and with different directory structure :

RAC Standby Database rebuild

Hi
Current 10.2.0.4 Setup is with Dataguard Broker (Unix/No OEM Setup):
Rac Primary 2node cluster
Rac Standby 2node cluster
The rac Standby Database are going to be opened read/write.
Then will require a rebuild of standby ie delete db files and duplicate db using rman
1) My questions is how do I rebuild of a rac standby database with an existing enabled dg broker?
2) Are there any documentation on the steps to follow.
3) Should the dg broker config be dropped or just disabled and if so at which stage?
Config on Rac primary should be kept to a minimum as its being used so no outage expected here.
Regards
Me

Have you given any thought to using flashback (depending on how long your standby will be open for read/write)? You could (before you open read/write) copy your dr*.dat files (broker config files), stop the broker and create a guarenteed restore point. After you have finished and ready to convert back to standby you would flashback your database to the restore point, convert back to a physical standby, restart the broker and shutdown. Restore the dr*.dat files to their location and then startup the standby. From there it should fetch the logs from the time the broker was down and catch back up.
If you would rather rebuild, again you would need to take the broker out of the equation and use RMAN to create a clone for standby and then once in place you would reconfigure the broker (may be able to just restore the dr*.dat files from before the open operation but unsure.

Manaul steps to create RAC ONE database

Hi I am trying to create to the RAC one database mnaually without using dbca utility.
Can anyone please let me know the steps to to create RAC one node database.
I am able to find lot of doucemtnation on net for the steps to create RAC database but unable to get on RAC ONE nodate database.

As John said, Setting up RAC one node is same as 2 nodes RAC . You need to define some parameters . Please follow the Oracle link and it explains very well.

Partial EBS Database Cloning

Hi
Is it possible to have a cloning strategy of bringing over a small percentage of data to the non-prod environments during the database cloning process for an EBS Env? Say 50% in Test and 25% in Dev.
If possible this would cut down on long-term storage cost and data liability, but I am not sure if this is possible. If possible then I would like to understand the amount of effort how this would be implemented.
Has anyone done this? Any pointers will be much appreciated. We are on R12.1.3 with HR and Payroll.
Thanks

ThanksRapid Clone doesn't support partial cloning.
One of the options would be cleaning/purging the data on the target instance once the full/complete clone is done -- Search the forum for cleaning/purging and you will get many hits.

What is the exact difference between Database Cloning and Database Refresh?

Hi,
Can anybody tel me the exact difference between Database Cloning and Database Refresh?
I Have some conflicts in these topics.
Thanks
Rajesh

Refresh is what it says, "refresh" . You have a main site which would always have the data being inserted into it. There would be another site which would remain some where else . This site needs to be refreshed with the primary site. So you need to do export from the primary, push it to the secondary site and done!

Database Cloning or Software Cloning

Hi,
Can anyone explain what is database cloning & software cloning available in oracle 10g ?
With Regards
Kccrga

In addition to the above replies.
Let's say you have a Production database (PROD) is running on Linux/Unix Server (AAA). Here you wanna clone your database and Oracle Home (Oracle Software Direcotries) from Server AAA to server BBB. Oracle Home cloning is nothing but software cloning.
Software Cloning: This can be done only once until and unless any Oracle Patch applied on it.
Database Cloning/Refresh: This needs to be done whenever the updated datais required in the test/developement databases from production.
Software Staging: This can be done once when we install Oracle Software. It means that we need to copy the Oracle Software CDs in one area on the server for the future installation of the same software.
