9iAS infrastructure HA?

How I can make the 9iAS rel.2 infrastructure highly available?
I have two cluster servers for that infrastructure?

Hi Ashesh,
Our company is Oracle CAP and we would like to build a demo environment for our some of our potential clients for 10g AS in HA mode. I have gone through the High Availability with Oracle Application Server 10g white paper (http://www.oracle.com/openworld/archive/sf2003/solutions_highavailability.html) that you presented in Sep 2003 Oracle world.
Can you please suggest some metalink notes apart from the HA installation documentation? I wish to use CISCO 2600 router as my Load balancer for AFC.
Any assistance or guidance would be very helpful to build the demo environment, so that we can demonstrate it to our clients.
Regards,
Dipak

  • Help with 9iAS Infrastructure post-instalation

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong with this? Having installed 9iAS infrastructure component (V9.0.2.0.1) on a Windows 2000 machine, everything seems to work fine. I can log in using the IAS_ADMIN password I have set up, start up all the services and run all the demos. However, once I reboot, I can no longer log in as IAS_ADMIN. It refuses to accept the password I have set up. Is there any post-installation stuff I have missed?
    Thanks

    Even I am having the same problem.
    I am still struggling to get this right but in the meantime you can start from the following URL:

  • Problems with installing 9ias infrastructure

    Iam trying to install oracle 9ias application server on a windows 2000 professional edition.
    so before installing application server iam trying to install 9ias infrastructure.
    my initial attempts have failed so iam trying to reinstall it again after deinstalling the existing infrastructure.
    the error iam getting is that the user who installed earlier is different from current user.
    i use only one account on the machine. how can i correct the problem.
    thanks

    The server has 2 500mhz Pentium Processors.
    Actually, I was able to bypass the issue by forcing the OUI to use 1 processer (Note 229478.1), but I am now having issues with the Infrastructure Schema Configuration Assistant. Even though it says it succeeded, the log says otherwise.

  • Starting and stopping 9ias Infrastructure and Application Server

    I have Oracle9ias R2 Infrastucture and Application running on one machine (bad idea - I know) on Windows 2000. I had to restart the system and of course all the different instances from Infrastructure and Application Server started in the wrong order and now nothing operates at all. (It was fine yesterday - really, it was).
    Could someone please give me a rough guideline on how to start these services, or instances in the right order.
    Much obliged

  • Oracle 9ias Infrastructure

    Hi,
    I'm currently investigating single sign on and have a question about
    the 9ias Infrastructure I need to install. I know that the infrastructure
    will work with Oracle9i Database and with Oracle 8i if I upgrade the Net8
    listener but I was wondering if it would work with Oracle 7 at all ?
    Cheers,
    Maggie

    Oracle9iAS Infrastructure is an install type in Release 2 (v9.0.2). This install type installs a 9.0.1.3 database which contains all the
    metadata Oracle9iAS mid tiers components such as Portal, Wireless etc use. Only the database we ship with is supported to contain the
    Metadata. We do not support any other 9i or 8i or 7 databases to contain the Metadata.
    The only exception is Portal. Portal metadata can be populated into any 8.1.7 or a 9.0.1.4 database.

  • De-installing 9iAS infrastructure tier

    I have a server that has the 9iAS infrastructure installed. None of the 9iAS mid-tier instances require SSO or clustering. The questions I have is:
    - Do these 9iAS mid-tier instances use the infrastructure if they are not using SSO or clustering?
    - If they're not, is there any impact on any of the mid-tier instances if the 9iAS infrastructure is de-installed
    - If they do, is there a safe way to remove the 9iAS infrastructure without impacting the mid-tier instances?
    Thanks
    James

    However, once you have associated any mid tier with infrastructure, it is not supported to remove the infrastructure except in one case. If you want to use FOrms and Reports without Infrastructure, following the instructions you can find in the white paper available on OTN, you can remove Infrastructure. This means you will not be able to use SSO capabilities with forms and reports.
    So, if you are using J2EE and Web Cache and do not care about SSO or database managed clustering feature, you have to make that decision during install and do not associate with infrastructure.

  • Help: problem trying to re-install 9iAS Infrastructure

    I'm using Windows 2000.
    A while ago I installed 9iAS Infrastructure, and later I deleted the entire installation.
    Since then, I have changed my computer's name. Now, when I try to re-install the Infrastructure, I'm getting an error message which says that I must use the same user login to install the Infrastructure as I originally used. I'm getting this message even though I deleted all the files (that I'm aware of) associated with the original installation, so, clearly, my computer still has a "memory" of the deleted installation somewhere.
    Can you please tell me which additional file or files I must delete from my system to destroy this trace of the original installation? Please note that I am using the same downloaded files now to try to perform the installation as I originally used.
    Thank you for your assistance.
    Hugh

    Hugh, here's the info you wanted:
    PURPOSE
    This article describes the procedure how to manually perform the actions to
    create a "clean machine" on Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP and how to
    manually remove all Oracle components (e.g.: oracle RDBMS database server,
    IAS, OEM, client installations, etc) and services from your computer.
    SCOPE & APPLICATION
    This article is intended for DBA's on the Microsoft Windows platform.
    WARNING:
    1. Remove all Oracle components from your computer only as a last resort,
    and only if you want to remove ALL Oracle components from your system.
    2. These instructions remove all Oracle components, services, and registry
    entries from your computer. In addition, any database files in the
    subdirectories under ORACLE_BASE\ORADATA\ are also removed.
    3. These procedures will also remove Oracle network configuration files,
    user written scripts and any other user generated files that may be stored
    in Oracle_Base directories.
    4. Exercise extreme care when removing registry entries. Removing incorrect
    entries can severely compromise your computer.
    MANUALLY REMOVING ALL ORACLE COMPONENTS AND SERVICES FROM YOUR COMPUTER
    Section A (steps 1-6) describes the removal of all Oracle components on
    Windows NT,2000 and XP.
    Section B (steps 1-4) describes the removal of all Oracle components on
    Windows 95 and Windows 98.
    A. Removing Components on Windows NT/2000/XP.
    To remove all Oracle components from a computer on Windows NT/2000/XP:
    1. Check privileges:
    1.a. Ensure you are logged in as a user with Administrator privileges.
    2. Stop all Oracle services (if any are running):
    2.a. NT: Choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > Services.
    2000,XP: Right click My Computer > Manage > Services and Applications >
    > Services
    2.b. If any Oracle services (their names begin with Oracle) exist and have
    the status Started, select the service and click Stop.
    2.c. Click Close to exit the Services window.
    2.d. Close the Control Panel/Computer Management window.
    3. Remove the entries in the Windows registry:
    3.a. Start the registry editor:
    Choose Start > Run > regedit
    Note: On Windows NT you can use regedt32 instead. The searching
    capabilities of regedt32 is limited compared to regedit. It will be
    needed to be able to edit 32-bit entries in the registry. Since we
    are not going to update any 32-bit entry it is not needed.
    3.b. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE
    Note the value of the key INST_LOC, this is the location of the
    Oracle Universal Installer (OUI). The default location is
    C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory. If this value is different, make
    note of it, so we can delete these files later.
    Delete this ORACLE key.
    3.c. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC and expand all subkeys and
    remove all keys under here which are related with the
    "Oracle ODBC Driver"
    3.d. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services and remove
    all keys under here that begin with ORACLE or ORAWEB.
    3.e. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\...
    ...\Application and remove all keys under here that begin with ORACLE.
    3.f. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\...
    ...\Uninstall and remove any entries related to Oracle.
    3.g. Go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, remove all keys that begin with Ora or ORCL
    (e.g. Oracle..., ORADC..., ORAMMC..., OraOLE..., OraPerf... and ORCL...).
    3.h. Close the registry.
    4. Clean up the environment settings:
    4.a. NT: Choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Environment tab
    2000,XP: Choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Advanced tab >
    Environment variables.
    4.b. At "System Variables" click on the variable PATH in order to modify
    the value. For example, you may see a path similar to this one:
    C:\ORACLE\ORA81\BIN;C:\PROGRAM FILES\ORACLE\JRE\1.1.7\BIN
    4.c. If an %ORACLE_HOME% was installed, remove this %ORACLE_HOME%\BIN path.
    4.d. If JRE was installed by Oracle, remove the JRE path.
    4.e. If there is a CLASSPATH variable under "System Variables", first make note
    of the path defined, then delete it. This variable can be added back at
    a later date if needed.
    4.f. Check if there are any other Oracle variables set in "System Variables",
    ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, TNS_ADMIN, JSERV or WV_GATEWAY_CFG. If these
    exist, delete them also.
    4.g. Click on APPLY and OK.
    4.h. Close the Control Panel window.
    5. Delete the software and icons:
    5.a. NT: Choose Start > Programs > Windows NT Explorer.
    2000,XP: Choose Start > Programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer.
    5.b. NT: Go to %SystemDrive%\WINNT\PROFILES\ALL USERS\START MENU\PROGRAMS
    2000,XP: Go to %SystemDrive%\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ALL USERS\...
    ...\START MENU\PROGRAMS
    Note 1: These locations depend on whether OS was upgraded from NT, or
    this was a fresh install of 2000/XP.
    Note 2: To locate your System Drive, type in DOS-box: echo %SystemDrive%
    and delete the following icons:
    - Oracle Installation Products
    - PRODUCT_NAME - HOME_NAME e.g.
    Oracle for Windows NT - Dev6i
    Oracle Reports 6i - Dev6i
    Oracle Olap Client 2.2 - Dev6i
    Oracle9i Lite
    Oracle - OraHome92
    5.c. Go to %SystemDrive%\Program Files\Oracle or the location of INST_LOC as
    noted earlier in step 3.b. and delete this directory.
    Note: In order to successfully delete all files, you may have to reboot
    your computer first, in order to clear Operating System locks
    on those files.
    5.d. Go to the temporary directory and delete all files and directories in here
    (see note in 5.c.).
    NT: %SystemDrive%\Temp
    2000,XP:
    %SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp\
    5.e. Go to the drive where the Oracle software is installed on your machine
    and delete all ORACLE_BASE directories on your hard drive (see note in
    5.c.).
    5.f. Close the Windows Explorer / Windows NT Explorer.
    6. Finish the removal:
    6.a. Empty the recycle bin
    Right click on recycle bin > Empty Recycle Bin.
    6.b. Reboot your computer.
    6.c. Optionally: If you are on Windows 2000 or XP run the System Defragmenter
    utility:
    - from Control Panel, select Administrative Tools > Computer Management
    - expand Storage, then select Disk Defragmenter
    - highlight each virtual drive, in turn, and click Defragment
    - reboot your computer when finished.
    B. Removing Components on Windows 95 or Windows 98.
    To remove all Oracle components from a computer on Windows 95/Windows 98:
    1. Remove the entries in the Windows registry:
    1.a. Start the registry editor at the MS-DOS command prompt:
    C:\> REGEDIT
    1.b. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE
    Note the value of the key INST_LOC, this is the location of the Oracle
    Universal Installer. The default location is
    C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory
    If this value is different, make note of it, so we can delete these files
    later. Delete this ORACLE key.
    1.c. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC and expand all subkeys and
    remove all keys under here which are related with the
    "Oracle ODBC Driver".
    1.d. Go to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
    and remove any entries related to Oracle.
    1.e. Go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, remove all keys that begin with Ora or ORCL
    (e.g. Oracle..., ORADC..., ORAMMC..., OraOLE..., OraPerf... and ORCL...).
    1.f. Close the registry.
    2. Clean up the environment settings:
    2.a. Open your AUTOEXEC.BAT with an editor to modify the PATH variable.
    For example, you may see a path similar to this one:
    C:\ORACLE\ORA81\BIN;G:\PROGRAM FILES\ORACLE\JRE\1.1.7\BIN .
    2.b. If an %ORACLE_HOME% was installed, remove this %ORACLE_HOME%\BIN path.
    2.c. If there is a CLASSPATH variable set in the AUTOEXEC.BAT, first make note
    of the path defined, then delete it. This variable can be added back at
    a later date if needed.
    2.d. If JRE was installed by Oracle, remove the JRE path.
    2.e. Save the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and close the edit.
    3. Delete the software and icons:
    3.a. Choose Start > Programs > Windows Explorer.
    3.b. Go to SYSTEM_DRIVE:\WINDOWS\START MENU\PROGRAMS
    and delete the following icons:
    - Oracle - HOME_NAME
    where HOME_NAME is the previous Oracle home name.
    - Oracle Installation Products
    3.c. Go to SYSTEM_DRIVE:\Program Files\Oracle or the location of INST_LOC as
    noted earlier in step 1.b and delete this directory.
    3.d Go to SYSTEM_DRIVE:\Temp and delete all files and directories in here.
    3.e. Go to the drive where the Oracle software is installed on your machine
    and delete all ORACLE_BASE directories on your hard drive.
    3.f. Remove any Oracle-related .INI files that may exist in the Windows
    directory. The Windows directory may be found by entering
    "echo %WINDIR%" from a command prompt.
    Typical Oracle .INI files include ORADIM73.INI, ORADIM80.INI,
    ORACLE.INI, ORAODBC.INI
    3.g. Close the Windows Explorer.
    4. Finish the removal:
    4.a. Empty the recycle bin
    Right click on recycle bin > Empty Recycle Bin
    4.b. Reboot your computer.

  • Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure Installation

    I have been trying to install Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure on a machine. My database version 9.0.1.1.1 is running on a seperate machine. Every time I am trying to install, i am getting an error OC4J installation failed.

    4) Last, the infrastructure comes with its own copy of database and application servers even you have installed or going to install any latest version of servers. It looks like Oracle doesn't integrate their products properly, the same story of Oracle CASE and database server.
    Oracle Sales keep on saying they have got the best Application Server in the market. But I can't see the reason why the people will choose it. I saw a lot of messages from the forums saying the people tried to install the products on Linux for evaluation purpose. This will discourage people using the products if Oracle Support only provide solutions on the RedHat Advance Server.
    I will try again with 9iAS 9.0.3 when I receive the package. Funny enough, I did ask people about their experiences on installation BEA Weblogic. It is smooth and only takes about half hour at all.

  • Problem Linking 9iAS infrastructure on Linux - Please Help

    My installation of 9iAS infrastructure fails at the linking stage.
    The install documentation states that I must install the binutils patch,
    binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13
    from the Oracle Metalink site.
    I have no Metalink account so am unable to obtain the patch from there.
    My Red Hat Linux installation is 7.2 and my binutils package was at 2.11.90.0.8-12
    I downloaded binutils-2.11.93.0.2-11.i386.rpm from the Red Hat site and installed it.
    I still however get linking errors.
    Do I need this specific (binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13) patch ?
    If so, where can I get it from if I have no Metalink account ?
    Many thanks,

    Hello.
    I'm installing 9iAS R2 on SUSE Linux 8.0.
    The installer failed when it relinks:
    'Error in invoking target relink of makefile /home/oracle/8.1.7/precomp/lib/ins-precomp.mk'
    I solved this problem editing the file:
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh and change the following line
    LD_SELF_CONTAINED="-z defs"
    to read:
    LD_SELF_CONTAINED=""
    Then run the script $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh. Also make sure you have all the Oracle environments set!
    The script should create new lib file!
    After that hit retry in the error popup.
    All the Infrasctructure installation finished succesfully.
    I'll hope this help you.
    Now I'm trying to install Portal and Wireless, but the installer says can't find the SSO Server (default port is 7777?).
    If you can install it, please, let me to know it: [email protected]
    Good luck !!!

  • 9ias infrastructure installation

    Hi:
    i installed 9ias infrastructure, but when running oid configuration assistant, it failed during installation with an error "can`t find OID Server". Then other configuration assistans failed after oidca failed, like OPMN....
    After that, i changed some environment variables, and started oidca, but and error message appeared "error configuring subscriber fails".
    What can be wrong, has anybody got this error before. Should i start all over the installation from cero.
    Please, somebody save my life......
    Grantful......
    Andres Wong

    What I did was to let the Oracle create the infrastructure database and then shutdown the database and move the control file and datafile to other locations. There are more than 40 datafiles need to be moved. I am not sure you can change the database version.

  • Update database installed with 9iAS Infrastructure?

    Hi!
    I'm about to install BIBeans on this system, which has Oracle 9i Database (9.2.0.4), 9iAS Infrastructure (9.0.2.3) and 9i Mid-Tier (9.0.2.3)... In the readme for the bibdemo schema, it says this: "Install (and upgrade, if you have an existing installation) the Oracle9i database. You must also install the required patchsets to get your database to version 9.2.0.3 or higher. Installation of the demo database schema will fail if the correct patchsets are not installed."
    I previously patched the 9i Database instance up to 9.2.0.4, but I was under the impression that Infrastructure installed its own copy of the database... Is that correct? If so, do I also have to update the IASDB? I had a look at the readme for the 9.2.0.4 DB patch, and it looked like that could only be applied to the 9i Database Server...
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • 9iAS Infrastructure Redundancy

    Is there a way to make the Infrastructure component of 9iAS redundant so that instances of 9iAS will have fault tolerant paths to the Metadirectory?

    From what I can tell, it appear that in AS 9.0.2 hardware clusturing is the only option.
    9.0.4 is supposed to have support for software based fail over

  • 9ias infrastructure installation on "custom database"

    Hello,
    we made a test on instalation of 9ias rel2 on win2k.
    When you install the infrastructure the univerval installer create a database and install the repository.
    We want in the future to first install an 9i database with our own parameters and then install the repository on it.
    Does anyone know how to do that?

    What I did was to let the Oracle create the infrastructure database and then shutdown the database and move the control file and datafile to other locations. There are more than 40 datafiles need to be moved. I am not sure you can change the database version.
