Basic monitoring of a standard edition Oracle 10g Alpha VMS

We are running Oracle 9.2.0.8 on Alpha VMS standard edition and are about to upgrade to Oracle 10g. It appears to me that :
- database control is not available for Alpha VMS
- Oracle grid control requires packs to see even the basic stuff that database control gives you, but you can only licence the packs against enterprise edition databases
What are we meant to use for basic monitoring of a standard edition Oracle 10g database on VMS?
Thanks
Flora

I have operating system VMS 8.3 with Oracle 10.2.0.4 EE, but I recommend 10.2.0.5, support a few weeks ago send me an email in which broad support for VMS until July 2013 for failing to support Itanium. Support ends in 2017, maybe it's time to migrate to another operating system. I am prounix, but VMS is much more advanced than Unix in some ways.
I do not remember well, but I use 10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.2 agent, but the operating system causes problems and don't recollet all data.
The license part I don't know, ask a salesperson, but you don't need license all packs, there are many free and good tools like ASHMON (look for it in Google) that cover packs like performance/diagnostics

Oracle 10g on VMS

Guys,
Need some input on can we install Oracle 10g on VMS OS.
Actually we have an application running on VMS and DB is RDB.
Planning for migration to Oracle. Needs to know will Oracle be supported in VMS or do we need to move the scripts too to UNIX or someother OS.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

S.Muthukumar.

Co-location of persistent chat and monitoring databases on Standard Edition server

Hello, I've seen all kinds of different answers to this question around the web with conflicting answers.
We have a basic IM/Presence only install of Lync 2013 and now want to deploy Monitoring and Persistent Chat roles.
As per this blog, it states you can co-locate all of these on one FE server.
http://windowspbx.blogspot.ca/2012/07/aaa-donotpost-install-lync-standard.html
Which does match what this TechNet article states:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398131.aspx
However, in the Blog, it says you need to install Full SQL Server 2008 in order to collocate, yet this goes against what TechNet says is possible, in that you can have all databases in one instance:
Each SQL instance can contain only a single back-end database (for an Enterprise Edition Front End pool), single Monitoring database, single Archiving database, single persistent chat database, and single persistent chat compliance database.
I guess my question is, can I simply install Monitoring and Persistent Chat using the same default SQL Server 2012 instance that was installed along with the Front End Standard Edition server (RTC instance)? Or should I create a new instance? Or do I need
to install a new SQL Server 2012 somewhere on a different server altogether?
Thanks!

Hi,
Lync standard edition server has SQL express database by default to host RTC instance. Monitoring server required SQL reporting services, SQL express does not have reporting components part of it. Hence, you required full SQL version for monitoring
and archiving deployment.
Technically, you can install full SQL server on the standard edition server itself. But , it is not recommended in production environment. It's good idea to install SQL server on a dedicated server for hosting monitoring and archiving database.

ASM option comes with Standard Edition Oracle 11g R2 Install or not?

Hello,
I just wanted to make sure before installing the Oracle 11g R2 software, whether ASM (Automatic Storage Management) is available for Standard edition or not?
Thank you for your help.

Hi Ally,
based on:

Go to the Oracle website and download their JDBC driver. Then
install it
in the CF server and configure your datasource using the
"Other" option
and with the information in the documentation of the driver.

Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition, Oracle process needs 5 Gb memory

Hi
Actually i'm under Windows 2003 server Standard Edition and Oracle Standard 9.2.0.6.
I need to have for my oracle process (User Process) a large amount of memory. (>= 5 Gb) probably 3 Gb for the PGA and 2 Gb for the SGA. (roughly).
I'm looking on AWE 4GT etc... Microsoft is'nt clear about this.
People with a similar experiment? Is it necessary to migrate under Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edittion ?
All informations and experiences are welcome.
Regards
Den

Before considering ways to overcome process addressing limits (32-bit process virtual address space), Windows Server Std Ed can use/see maximum 4 GB RAM. You cant fit 5GB Oracle Server memory + other stuff + OS in that. I guess your only options are EE 32-bit or Std Ed x64, if you have the hardware.
But, staying on the 32-bit path, it will be hard to achieve confilicting objects of large memory areas. Remember that process virtual space is 4GB regardless of how much RAM the hardware (and OS) can manage.

How do I download standard edition one 10g for linux?

I want to evaluate standard edition one, but I can't find where to download it. All I can find is standard edition. I am a OPN member.

Justin,
Is that means i can install SE on my 2 CPU server and let Oracle Know that they have to treat this as SE1?
Oooo, i will be saving lot of $$$ with this if its true.

Oracle 10g on VMS with TCPWARE

All:
I am trying to upgrade from Oracle 9.0 to Oracle 10. (Oracle 9 works fine for me, but I need the latest patches)..
The system is running OpenVMS Alpha, using Process Software's TCPWARE. Oracle states that it only officially supports UCX. For various reasons, switching to UCX/DEC Tcpware is not a good option.
With my current version of TCPWARE (5.5-3), the installer will not even start (I am getting tcp/ip level errors). I can upgrade TCPWARE to the latest version, but don't want to go to the time and expense to do this if it won't help. Has anyone out there installed Oracle10 on a VMS AXP system with TCPWARE?
Thanks for any help!

How to choose 10g Standard Edition One.

Hi,
Does anyone know how to choose 10g Standard Edition One during the installation process ? There are only two type to choose: Enterprise and Standard Edition.
And is Standard Edition One defined by product or license ?
Thanks!

Oracle Standard Edition:
Standard Edition is designed for smaller businesses and enterprises. It offers a subset of the features/ functionality implemented in Enterprise Edition. Database options like Data Guard, Partitioning, Spatial, etc. is not available with Standard Edition (from 10g one can use RAC with Standard Edition). Standard Edition can only be licensed on servers with a maximum capacity of four processors.
Oracle Standard Edition One:
Standard Edition One is a low cost, entry-level version of the Oracle Standard Edition database server. Standard Edition One can only be licensed on small servers with a maximum capacity of two processors.

Licence for Development Oracle standard edition

Hi,
I am having named user licence for the standard edition Oracle database.
Can I create multiple instances for the same machine and redstribute my licences internally?
Can we run multiple versions of oracle on same machine under one license ?

WARNING: None of this internet advice has any legal standing and you would be absolutely recommended to confirm with your local Oracle sales representative.
Can I create multiple instances for the same machine and redstribute my licences internally?Yes, as long as you have enough named user licenses to cover all of the users who will be connecting to all those instances
Can we run multiple versions of oracle on same machine under one license ?Yes, as long as you have enough named user licenses to cover all of the users who will be connecting to all those instances of different versions
If you have a large number of users (say > 50) it may be cheaper to purchase a processor license for the server. You will need to check this with your local Oracle sales representative as processor licensing has its own licensing metrics e.g. O/S platform and CPU.
Note that what my sales rep says is ok may not be what your sales rep says is ok, so get confirmation in writing for reference.

ASM Direct file access (for creating standby database in Standard Edition)

Hi all,
Just really looking for any opinions, experience etc. that people may have about this.
My company are looking to set up a RAC system. They have also asked me to think about creating a standby database for disaster recovery. The first problem they give me here is that they only pay for Standard Edition of Oracle, therefore Dataguard is not an option.
I know that one can setup "manual" standby databases with Standard Edition, automating the shipping of archive logs with hand-written scripts etc. However, as the primary here is RAC, and will be using ASM on the shared storage, I'm not sure that this would be possible (and I'm even less sure that it would be desirable!). I say this because I don't know of a way to access (using only the O/S and/or Oracle) the database files stored in ASM, and even if there was a way, I can't imagine it being a good idea..
Anybody know of a way to tackle it, or care to contribute anything to this? As I say, my opinion is that even if it is possible to get to those files within ASM and hence manipulate them, I'd be worried that it wouldn't be such a good idea. But I'm willing to bet I'm not the first to have thought about it...
Regards,
Ados
Edit 1:
Sorry, I should state that in principal, the basic environment is:
Windows 2003 Server
Oracle 10g R2
I didn't state that originally though, as I'd be keen to hear from anyone who may have attempted this on any O/S and Oracle version.
Edited by: Ados on 16-sep-2009 9:32
Edit 2:
I also realise we could put the archive logs on the local nodes.. but to reinforce the point, I'm talking about having them on the shared storage where - in theory - the management is easier and more effective.
Edited by: Ados on 16-sep-2009 9:35

For anyone interested..
I guess it would be done using RMAN (in fact, I'm sure of it...) in which case, I feel a lot more comfortable doing it!!
For example:
backup as copy archivelog ALL to destination 'c:\temp\';
This way, it shouldn't matter if the arch logs are stored using ASM, we can now get them and "see" them.. and hence "manipulate" them (pass them on to a standby DB, for example).
I'm just waiting to get my hands on a Standard Edition installation where I can test all this.. To try it all out (with 2-node RAC, and a standby server) I don't think I'll get a chance, so still interested in opinions, or if anyone's actually done this.

Ados

Which Doc Contains Standard Edition's Replication Features?

Hi all,
I am going to use Oracle 10g / Oracle 11g Standard Edition's replication features (single-master, simple replication). However, in the online documentation web site, I cannot find relevant manuals / chapters.
There are manuals on advanced replication or Streams, but these are not what I am looking for.
I also searched the web on the above information, and some tutorial or step-by-step instruction (without using Oracle Enterprise Manager) but have found nothing so far.
Please advise where I may find such info. Thanks in advance!
Best regards
Edited by: user11974348 on Jun 10, 2010 3:43 AM

Hi Forstmann and all,
Thank you for your information.
I believe manual standby database may not be applicable to my situation because the reporting database needs to be refreshed several times a day during office hours to keep the data not too far behind production, while the reporting access may be continuous during office hours. The manual standby solution needs to bring down the standby database and causes interruption to the reporting workload.
I guess Oracle is "encouraging" people to use Enterprise Edition because back in Oracle 8's documentation, there is a dedicated book called "Oracle Replication" which contains information for both basic and advanced replication. There is also a whole chapter (Chapter 2) on basic replication.
In Oracle 9i Release 1, the chapter on basic replication is gone. In Oracle 10g Release 2, the book "Oracle Replication" is gone, and is apparently replaced by "Advanced Replication". So, for Standard Edition users, how do they know what replication documentation is relevant to them? Should Standard Edition users refer to Oracle 8's documentation? This is the key of my question.
Thanks and regards,
Lawrence

>>or do to this i need a license from oracle for oracle 10g standard edition?
Yes you need a license for Oracle 10g SE
>>oracle 10g XE is only for study, learn and personal use?
No, it's for any purpose
Here is some information regarding the Oracle RDBMS versions you mention on your Post:
Oracle XE:
Express Edition (XE) is a free, downloadable version of the Oracle database
server. Oracle XE can only be used on single processor machines. It can only
manage up to 4 GB of data and 1 GB of memory. ISVs can embed XE in 3rd party
products and redistribute it freely.
Oracle Standard Edition:
Standard Edition is designed for smaller businesses and enterprises (This is not free). It
offers a subset of the features/ functionality implemented in Enterprise
Edition. Database options like Data Guard, Partitioning, Spatial, etc. is not
available with Standard Edition (from 10g one can use RAC with Standard
Edition). Standard Edition can only be licensed on servers with a maximum

Restore and recover Oracle 10g database from tape.

I have a very basic question for restore and recover Oracle 10g database. Our envirnment settings are:
Oracle 10g on Unix, daily database and archivelog backup to Vista NetBackup server. Retention policy is 2. Old backup files are copied from NetBackup server to the tape for record keeping.
I want to restore a database to a point in time. Because our retention policy is setup to 2. The backup files I need have been copied to the tape. So I should ask SYSTEM ADMIN to copy the backup files back to NetBackup server disk or I can ask him to copy backup files to the Unix server that host my Oracle 10g database. Then I can use Rman to do restore and recover. Is this doable? I know normal procedure is to copy backup files I need back to NetBackup server disk, not directly back to database server. Please put your comments here as early as better. I do appreciate your kind help.

Are you using catalog or nocatalog?
If the backup information is out of retention, Catalog them again also in netbackup.
So that you can able to restore database directly without copying those files to host.
