Binary Compatibility - W2K vs AIX vs Linux

I have a question. It is posible to move .fmx files compiled on W2K with Forms6i Builder to an Oracle9iAS 1.0.2.2.2 running on IBM-AIX or Linux without to recompile .fmb files created on W2K?.
Thanks4All.

If forms are compiled on NT and oracle database is on AIX, after we switch to Sun Solaris, do I need to recompile those forms? if so, can those forms be re-open on Sun Solaris?
how about reports (.fmb)? currently I compile them on my PC (connect to oracle DB on AIX) and ftp it to AIX, do we need to recompile those reports after platform is changed to SUN?
thanks in advance!

Binary compatibility problems using Sun Studio 12

I'm working in a project that uses Orbix [1] third-party libraries. I have installed the Sun Studio 12 on Solaris 10 SPARC but I have got some strange segfault problems (the exactly same code works fine in a Linux box - using g++). I read the 1.4 section of Sun Studio 12 C++ Userguide [2] but I have a doubt:
Is there no way to compile my code using Sun Studio 12 using shared libraries compiled against earlier Sun Studio C++ compiler versions (like Sun Studio 8 or some version before Sun Studio 11)?
I think my problem is related to the fact that Orbix team used Sun Studio 8 as some notes found in their headers indicate:
"IONA Technologies ART IDL Compiler POA C++ Generator asp 6.3.3 SunOS 5.8 CC_5.5 2008/06/13 21:04:37 EDT"
A secondary question: Is CC 5.5 present in Sun Studio 8, right?
Can anyone help me? Every tips are welcome :) Thanks in advance!

I read the 1.4 section of Sun Studio 12 C++ Userguide [2] but I have a doubt:I don't think 1.4 Binary Compatibility Verification applies in your case. It's referring to processor capability to execute certain (new) instructions; if your third-party libraries were compiled a while ago, it's highly unlikely they use instructions not implemented by the processor you have.
Is there no way to compile my code using Sun Studio 12 using shared libraries compiled against earlier Sun Studio C++ compiler versions (like Sun Studio 8 or some version before Sun Studio 11)?Generally speaking, any library compiled with older Sun Studio C++ compiler is supposed to be compatible with any library or executable compiled with newer version provided that all parties did everything right. For example, that third-party libraries should not be statically linked with C++ run-time support libraries; your executable should be linked with latest compiler driver (CC) so that it records correct dependencies on support libraries.
Of course, there could be (and actually are) compiler bugs standing in the way of compatibility. Some of them can be fixed, some - like demangler issue described in http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4155/c++.html - can't. There is no easy way to tell if you hit a compiler bug or bulding/linking issue, or bug in the code that was previously unseen.

Oracle E-business suite database migrate from AIX to Linux

Oracle 11i application database migration from single Aix instance to oracle Linux cluster RAC.
What is the easy way to migrate?
Migrate single instance from aix to linux cluster.
OR
Migrate single instance from aix to linux cluster RAC.
We have installed oracle Linux cluster.
Please help me which way I can go with RAC.
Thanks
Prince

Migrating to a single instance will be the simplest. The migration itself will not be much different between the two because you're migrating from one platform to another. The options you have available are, the traditional IMP/EXP, datapump, and RMAN to migrate to either a standalone or RAC environment. The difficulty will be in creating a RAC environment and a little a few extra steps in the RMAN restore. Working with RAC will make things harder, but the actual migration is similar. The steps to IMP/EXP, whether it's traditional or Datapump will be no different. However, standing up a RAC database will be.

ORACLE APPS migration from AIX to Linux

Dear All,
Please help me to understand the following scenario of ORACLE APP'S migration.
One of my client currently using Oracle APP'S ver 11.0.3 DB version 8.0.5 running on IBM AIX platform.
Currently three customized module under operation with 50 forms and reports.
Also some external application integrated with the current oracle financial 11.0.3.
The client is more interested to migrate their platform to linux based server.
They wants to move the current set up to the new version EBS along with the existing customized module. (My question is it possible to migrate the customized module to another platform. AIX to Linux)
If so , where i can find the right document to explore more idea of this scenario of migration.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ram.
Dear all,

ram,
I am going to do the similar upgrade with replatform at the same time. I collect the information from forum and finally get an indicator to how to do it. You need to read the "Upgrading the Oracle Applications", B19297-01
"Installing Oracle Applications" B19296-01 and
"Maintenance Utilities" B19300-01
The documentation mentioned the way for upgrade an 11.0 version of EBS to latest release including some pre-upgrade tasks including the database version upgrade to work with 11i, etc.
Hope this help.

Binary compatibility

Hello all,
I've compiled an app that will run as a service on solaris 8 (on a sparc ultra-5). I've used gcc to compile and the app runs fine on the sparc ultra-5.
My quesion is - will this compiled binary run on an E420 or any other sun hardware? In general, is there some docs/resources that describe binary compatibility across sun hardware?
Thanks for any info.

Hi,
Sun has a very strong binary compatibility guarantee, but I'm not sure where one would find documentation!
I would be more concerned about carting the required GCC runtimes around with you wherever you want to run your binary than Solaris or SPARC binary compatibility.
We build in 32 bit on a quad UltraSPARC III running Solaris 8, using Studio 10 (we were on Workshop 5 until recently!), and most of our customers run on Solaris 9, and in most cases on something a touch faster than UltraSPARC III.
I'd recommend you take a look at the new Studio 11 release (it is free after all) to avoid carting runtimes around with you. Please remember, however, that the machines your software runs on will need to be running at least the same patches as are pre-requisite for Studio 11 (well, the C and C++ runtimes anyway).

Check binary compatibility between 2 Jars

Hello,
we have a Java API to our repository product. Is there a way to check binary compatibility between different versions of that API? The problem is that the interfaces evolve and sometimes changes are necessary. So we already had the problem that different versions are incompatible.
I found just one tool: japitool. But it does not detect the latest problem we have.
Thanks in advance
Torsten

I mean the facts and rules described in chapter 13 of the Java language specification (Binary Compatibility; http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/binaryComp.doc.html#44872).

Dataguard 11g setup between AIX and Linux

Hi,
We are planning to move our Oracle databases from AIX 6.1 to Oracle Linux 6.2
To reduce the downtime, we are thinking of setting up a dataguard (physical or logical) and do the switchover.
Have you performed this before?
Will you pls send me the steps?
Thanks,
DR

Hello again;
I thinking no for the same reason.
When my shop moved from AIX to Linux we just install Oracle on Linux and patched it to the same level as the AIX. We created users, tablespaces, job etc in advance and then just used import/export to move the needed schema's. Data Pump make this much easier.
Do a schema(s) compare and switch when ready. But in any event I don't believe Data Guard can help you. You mostly have a migrate issue.
Please consider closing your question when complete.

The error indicates that the password (or wallet) files oidpwdldap1 and oidpwdr<ORACLE_SID> do NOT exist under $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/admin or your $ORACLE_HOME and $PATH are set incorrectly (a bit unlikely).
Assuming that the $ORACLE_HOME and $PATH are indeed set to correct values, if the 2 files mentioned above do not exist under $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/admin, then perform the below action plan:
1. Set the ORACLE_HOME to INFRASTRUCTURE ORACLE_HOME
2. set the PATH to $ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/ldap/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin:$PATH
3. Ensure that you are able to login to sqlplus as "ods" user.
4. If you do NOT know the password of ods user, then reset the password.
5. Run the below command and enter the ods password when prompted for it.
oidpasswd create_wallet=true
6. Voila! The Wallet files are created under $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/admin.

UNIX (AIX) to LINUX Database migration

Hi,
I need to migrate the Oracle database from UNIX(AIX) to LINUX. I have a valid license for the UNIX box but wanted to know if the same license would also work for the LINUX box as well or not. I will be using the license only on one system i.e once the migration is done the database would no longer exist or will use the License key on the UNIX box.
Is it possible to migrate the license or do I need to get a new one for the LINUX box.
Thanks,
Nitesh

The license is for Oracle, so you can put Oracle on what ever O/S you want without affecting the license.

A question about license date validity during OS migration: AIX to Linux

Dear all,
I would appreciate if you could kindly give us
your advice about the following issue.
We have an environment dedicated for training. The environment was
initially installed on AIX platform. However, after a while the
technical direction decided to migrate to Linux.
The migration was done at 18 September 2009, and during this process
the very date was chosen and designated by SAP to be the
valid start date of the new SAP license.
Now, our problem is, that the data programmed in this SAP envionment
(used for training) is not compatible with the current date. In
order to make them work properly, the host system date must always be
set to the last year (this is because we had unfortunately some delay for
the migration).
It is fundamental to remark, that currently, we are absolutely not able to
modify the data and the sole solution (although not the best one) to
tackle this problem is to modify the operating system's date. This is
precisely how we proceeded, but unfortunately we encountered a SAP license
check problem during logon.
As I explained, the migration from AIX to Linux was performed at
18 September 2009, which means, this was the date for the new license.
Yet, we need to go further in the past and to choose 24th July 2008.
On the operating system, of course, there is no problem and the
administrator can modify the host date with the appropriate date, but
on the other hand, by choosing this date, we are no more able to work
within this SAP environment. At the logon time, we receive a license
check error, which is normal, because the host date (24th July 2009) is anterior
than the start date for the SAP license (18 September 2009).
Also, we cannot ask for another license, because we will have the same problem,
they never create a license dated for the last year, and they always create an
up-to-date license.
Could you kindly guide us how we can manage to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Kind Regards,
Dariyoosh

I think you're better off opening an OSS message in this particular case.

DB migration from AIX to Linux

Dear Experts,
We are planning to migrate our existing 10g database of 11.5.10.2 from AIX to Linux. Can anyone share their experiences? Some docs/URLS will be helpful. One of my friends told that it takes more than 36 hours to complete the database migration. Is it really true? The current database size is approx. 100GB.
After the migration does, apps function as usual?
Thanks in advance.
SA

Hi,
You can use export/import or transportable tablespaces to migrate the database.

To move/migrate the 11i Apps Database alone means you need to follow the export/import method.
Please refer the note: 362205.1 "10g Release 2 Export/Import Process for Oracle Applications Release 11i"
In general steps to follow the DB migration is :
1. create the complete export file in source database
2.create a new DB in the target instance
3.perform the import
4.create the new auto-config and sync with apps tier

AIX or Linux

Hi,
I am new to Oracle ECM. I would like to know whether AIX or Linux is will be better for Oracle ECM to run on. I would like some one can explain me the reason and point me some articles regarding this subject. Thanks!
Kevin

In my experience, oid on redhat runs the fastest. User bases range for our clients from 100 to 50,000. Also, upgrades will come out on linux faster than aix, since it's getting to be a less used OS. Just my thoughts.
