Anyone upgraded Linux OS and Oracle to 64BIT? - How to?

Anyone upgraded their nodes in their cluster from 32 bit OS to 64 bit - and also upgraded their 32 bit oracle 10.1.0.5 to 64 bit 10.2.0.2?
Anyone have a good draft on how to complete this task?

I haven't did this one.
You need to install fresh instead upgrade as the Oracle binaires will be different for 32 and 64. Database file conversion, you may rman. I believe, rman have some option to convert different OS bit format.

Linux clusters and oracle

Hello gentlemen!
Does anybody have experience with linux clusters and oracle?
Does this combination exist? Is linux great in this role?
Any links on this topic?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
San.

This contradicts the information in the Oracle® Database Release Notes 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Linux x86-64:
In Oracle Database Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Real Application Clusters Installation Guide, Chapter 2, "Preinstallation," in the section "Oracle Clusterware Home Directory," it incorrectly lists the path /u01/app/oracle/product/crs as a possible Oracle Clusterware home (or CRS home) path. This is incorrect. A default Oracle base path is /u01/app/oracle, and the Oracle Clusterware home must never be a subdirectory of the Oracle base directory.
A possible CRS home directory is in a path outside of the Oracle base directory. for example, if the Oracle base directory is u01/app/oracle, then the CRS home can be an option similar to one of the following:
u01/crs/
/u01/crs/oracle/product/10/crs
/crs/home
This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 5843155.

I cannot get the keyboard to come up on the ipad mini when in the citrix receiver. Has anyone ran into this and do you know how to fix it?

I am not familiar with Citrix Reciever but is it possible it is open or being used in another open app?

Oracle Linux 6 and Oracle DB for ERP System

All,
I have a few questions about using Oracle Linux 6 and the Oracle Database for our ERP Server. We are using a System that run off of Appache httpd and Tomcat and connects to an Oracle Database. We currently are running as a hardware installed server, with Oracle Linux 5 and 10gR2. We are looking to migrate to a Virtual environment as we run VMWare for all our other Servers and services. I have started the install of a development/test system. I wanted to install Oracle Enterprise Linux 6 x86_64 along with either 10gR2 or 11gR2. I noticed that 10gR2 was not certified on OEL6 hence why the thought of moving to 11gR2. The one issue I have is the ERP system is not a x86_64 system is there any way of running 32 bit apps on a 64bit OEL install? I would need to compile a few small 32bit C code programs so would need 32bit libs to compile against. Any support would be greatly appreciated. I know that OEL has an i386 install but I also know that the x86_64 has more support for Oracle DB.
P.S.
Our ERP System is programmed via a small company that does not certify anything. They have taken the approach if it works it works (not happy with this but it is what it is). So the main issue is I need to get Appache Httpd, Tomcat running along with ability to compile a few small 32bit apps.

x86-64 is an extension of the x86 32-bit CISC instruction set. The 64-bit extension provides support for long mode to address larger virtual and physical address spaces.
You can generally run 32-bit applications on a x86_64 bit CPU and a x86_64 kernel, provided you have the appropriate i386 libraries installed. When you install Oracle 11gR2 11.2.0.1 for x86_64, appropriate i386 libraries are a prerequisite.
Since x86 on a x86_64 CPU is still hardware, there will be no performance penalty to run 32-bit application. Btw, you cannot run 64-bit applications using a i386 kernel. The only exception I know is Mac OS X.

Oracle/linux box and oracle NT server

Hi!
I have very specific question and wonder if anybody can be of
help. We're going to setup web page using oracle data. Which
oracle product should we use for getting information off of the
NT server running oracle 7.3.4? Is there a free client license
for Linux client - that would be possibly helpful for setting up
web server on the linux box and launching sqlplus in the linux
environment in order to take data from different box - NT server.
I've known that there is a product for linux called Web DB that
can be rather helpful. Is there any other way to establish
connection between linux web server and NT oracle database? If
anybody has any idea i would be very glad to hear from you.

Eugene
you can access an Oracle server running on any Host from Linux as
long as you have Oracle SQL-Net installed.
On top of SQL-Net you can use any other software, like Perl,
PHP3, etc.
If you use Perl, you need to install the perl modules DBI and
DBD-Oracle.

Difference between Oracle VM on Linux x86 and Oracle VM Server for x86 on Linux x86

Hi,
Under the certifications tab for EBS 11.5.10.2, there are two fields for Virtualization software
1. Oracle VM
2. Oracle VM Server for x86
Oracle VM shows version 2.2.0.0.0 and Oracle VM Server for x86 shows version 3.2.6.0.0. Could you please let me know the difference between the two?
Thanks
Sarika

Hi,
Oracle VM shows version 2.2.0.0.0 and Oracle VM Server for x86 shows version 3.2.6.0.0. Could you please let me know the difference between the two?
Oracle VM 2.2 is for Oracle Solaris Sparc platform (Earlier know as Sun Logical Domains) - Only Solaris sparc Installation are supported on VM's
2.2 Installing Oracle VM Server on SPARC Hardware
Oracle Vm 3.2 is for X86 platform - using this VM you can Install and create Windows/Linux/Solaris-X86 and other certified OS.

Just bought a new MacBook pro to replace my old PC. I have LR 4 on disk and LR 5 upgrade on disk and need to know how to load LR on my new Macbook Pro. Also how do I transfer photos?

I'm not very good with computers and need help. My LR 4 and LR 5 upgrade are on disk but my new MacBook Pro doesn't use disk. How do I load LR on my new computer? Also, how do I get the photos from LR on my old computer to the new computer?

You can download Lightroom thru the link(s) below. If you only want to install the version 5 upgrade you do not need to install 4 first - you likely just need to provide the serial number for it when you activate 5.
Lightroom - all versions
Windows
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=113&platform=Windows
Mac
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=113&platform=Macintosh
As far as transferring photos goes, that is something you might get help for in the Photoshop Lightroom forum. But you could wait here and see if anyone knows, or you could search Google and probably find out how.

OAS, Linux, CMAN and Oracle 9.2.0.7

Greetings All:
We are running Oracle 9.2.0.7 on RHES3 and I have been told by our dba that we cannot run Oracle Advanced Security (OAS) with SSL because of incompatibilities mentioned on Metalink notes Note 166492.1 and Note 331125.1. I do not have Metalink access but I do not understand. I mean if OAS did not work on Linux it seems like that would be a major bug.
What we want to do is have secure communications between our users Windows workstations and the Oracle database server. The connections are made using the Oracle supplied drivers and sql*net. What I do not want to rely on is the IT department saying that the netowrk is secure so that is good enough. The only other option they are offering is to use Cisco's TED, which according to my understanding only provides a secure connection between their hardware (routers, etc).
Can someone either validate that this is true that OAS with SSL will not work on Linux or offer another option for security? Is all of this fixed by upgrading to 10g?
Thanks
Dan

Thanks Steve, That's probably what we'll try and do.
I'm just trying to find some hard evidence that it's a Forms patch problem. Something to give to Management that says "You should be on a least patch x with 9.2.0.7 because of problems x, y and z".
The application is in strict maintenance mode - the server upgrade was forced on us from outside.

New installation woes - SQLDeveloper on Oracle Linux x64 and Oracle 11g XE

Note that as an experienced Oracle developer in enterprise environments running MS Windows OS, I am familiar with SQLDeveloper for Windows. I don't have a lot of experience with Linux however. I don't find it intimidating, I just don't have a lot of accumulated knowledge.
I have recently been trying to set up a development environment on my Windows7 Professional x64 laptop.
1. Installed Oracle VBox
2. Installed Oracle Linux 5.2 inside the VBox (because Oracle 11g XE is not certified on 64 bit Windows, needed to go with a Linux OS)
3. Installed Oracle DB 11.2 XE
4. Installed JDK as instructed in the SQLDeveloper release notes for Linux x64
5. Installed SQLDeveloper 3.1.07.42-1
No apparent issues with any of the installations.
Problem : I can run SQL Plus from the command line, but when I click on the icon for SQLDeveloper, nothing happens. No error messages, nothing else.
Question #1 : Unsure how to debug/troubleshoot this. Will read through the installation and release notes for SQLDeveloper, but any suggestions would be welcome.
Question #2 : Could this be due to an issue with the JDK installation? It appeared to be successful (no obvious issues) but I can't see anything in the Oracle Linux menu system that tells me the JDK was installed successfully. How can I confirm that the JDK installation was successful?
Edited by: Peter Hartgerink on Jun 19, 2012 9:12 AM

>
The Linux x64 version of SQLDeveloper doesn't come bundled with JDK. There is a version of JDK recommended, with an advisory to install it before installing SQLDeveloper. This I did, with apparent success. I guess I'll have to install the JDK again and check my Java versions afterwards. Thanks.
>
I don't know what JDK you downloaded since you didn't say. What version was it? Post the link.
I find it hard to believe that the JDK version recommended was 1.4.2 since that is an ANCIENT version of Java, you have to hunt to even find it for download and most importantly the sql developer main download page clearly announces what version of Java is needed.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html
>
JDK Support
Oracle SQL Developer 3.1 is shipped with JDK1.6.0_11. However, you can connect to and use any JDK 1.6.0_11 or above. To use an existing JDK, download the zip files listed below "with JDK already installed."
>
As you can see you need JDK 1.6.0_11 or above.
If the version you say was recommended was actually 1.4.2 then that is an error; post the details so the developers can get that error fixed.
I don't know what is on your system and can only go by the information you provide
>
4. Installed JDK as instructed in the SQLDeveloper release notes for Linux x64
java version "1.4.2"
>
You either downloaded version 1.4.2, which seems unlikely, or your Linux included 1.4.2 and it is being used when you try to launch sql developer.
Perhaps your system now has multiple versions of Java on it but the version being used by sql developer is the wrong one. If so that is the issue you need to resolve.

Connection issues between 64 bit SSIS and Oracle in 64bit

I've got a Win2K3 Std Ed server (x64) running 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. I've installed the Oracle 10g 64 bit and and installed ODAC 64 bit then oracle patch to take care of () issue, i managed to create a link server on management studio and connect to oracle a 64 bit server
Now... when I try to create a new connection manager in SQL Server 2005 Integration Services i got the following error, the OLEDB provider for Oracle can't be found, and when I try to manually add an underlying OLEDB connection to the database, SQL Server reports: i got the following error....
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. The 'OraOLEDB.Oracle.1' provider is not registered on the local machine.
Note: my sql server agent is not running on this server, let me know if this is an issue.

I think I resolved this issue by installing Oracle 11g 32bit & 64bit clients in the 64bit SQL Server machine.
Please refer to the detail:

Satellite A200 and Windows 7 64bit - How someone test it?

Has anyone test and works with it.
I have *A200 23W* with 4 gb memory, vista sp2 installed and i want to have a clear install on *windows 7 but 64bit version*.
What do you think about?

Loaded windows 7 on an A200 psace with 2gb of memory, most things are OK. video drivers initially was generic vga but after windows update the correct geoforce go driver was loaded. The flash media was not working as windows couldn't find a driver, downloaded vista driver from toshiba website which corrected problem. I have the professional version of windows 7 so I tried the xp compatibilty mode, this doesn't work, it says that the virtualization option in bios isn't enabled even though it is enabled in bios. It's ealy days yet but everything is looking fairly good, I had the beta version running for 2 or 3 months without too many problems

Cant stand the changes to my Maxx HD with the KitKat upgrade, text colors and keyboard terrible. How can I remove the upgrade and go back to what I had?

How can I remove this new Kitkat upgrade and go back to what I had. I cannot deal with the color on text screen and the keyboard is terrible. Can take back all the stupid pictures they added for texting. Just need it back to what it was.

Hasn't any business ever heard of the term.
IF IT AINT BROKE DON'T FIX IT.

I'm trying to take the bookmarks from my iphone 4 to my linux laptop and don't know how.

I know how to sync perfectly fine, but am fearing if I do it might just wipe the ones off my phone.
So how do I transfer them from my phone to laptop?

Do you mean delete the music from your phone, or copy the purchases over to your computer's iTunes ?
If delete then you can enable the left-hand sidebar that used to show automatically on previous versions via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - you can then select the Music category under the phone 'device' on that sidebar and use the right-hand side to select and delete music from it.
If you want to copy your iTunes purchases over to your computer's iTunes then File > Devices > Transfer Purchases should copy them over (if you are using a PC and the drop-down menus aren't showing then control-B should get them to do so)

Anyone upgraded Linux OS and Oracle to 64BIT? - How to?
