Change default database during export

Hi,
I have installed 2 databases, db1 and db2. First, installed db1, then installed db2. I wanted to export a table from db1, then export the table to db2. I tried to do this by exp and imp at dos prompt. I found that the default database is db2. I want to know how to set the default database to db1? Hope anyone can answer me.
Thanks
Best regards,
Collin

Hi,
To get the problem cleared,
Is you situation looks like this ?
Source :
database : db1
user : db1
default tablespace : db1
Destination :
database : db2
user : db2
default tablespace db2
If so, you can;
Create a tablespace db1 and set default tablespace of user db2 to db1.
alter user db2 default tablespace db1;
Then do the import;
imp ...... fromuser=san touser=san;

Changing default database and application passwords

Hi,
We have default passwords for our newly configured Oracle ERP (R12).
I have a concern regarding the changing of default password. Does changing the default passwords will have any effect on normal working of ERP and database.
I know that we shouldn't change default APPLSYSPUB password. What about the following default passwords?
a) Default accounts having default password in database (DBA_USERS):
CTX SYS
OLAPSYS
DBSNMP
DMSYS
GL (oracle users .e.g AP, GL, AR)
APPLSYSPUB
OUTLN
PERFSTAT
SYS
b) Default accounts present in Oracle Application (FND_USERS) :
IBE_GUEST
OP_CUST_CARE_ADMIN
ASGADM
MOBILEADM
APPSMGR
IBEGUEST
OP_SYSADMIN
AUTOINSTALL
WIZARD
IEXADMIN
ASGUEST
IBE_ADMIN
ERP version : 12.1.2
Database Version: 11.2.0.1
Thanks in advance.

Hi Gaurav,
Yes as stated by Srini, It's highly recommended that you change tyhe default password in order to safeguard your instance by outside threats.
But please be cautious as you cant change these accounts as "alter user <username> identified by <new password>", but rather use FNDCPASS utility. I advice you to check on the TEST system before implementing on the PROD instance if you dont have prior experience using FNDCPSAS.
Please also refer notes:

Changing default database used by ODBC programmatically

Hi,
I have a report that I'm using ODBC to connect with and it can be run against one of two databases. I am unable to get it to point to any database other than the default set in the DSN. I have tried setting the database in the ConnectionInfo object but still points to the default.
Thanks,
Steve

HI,
Sorry for not providing more information. II'm using CR2008 and Visual Basic 2008.
The code i'm using is similar to what is in the sample code:
Dim newreport As New frmReportViewer
        Dim DataVariables As DataVariablesType
        DataVariables = DataUtility.GetDataVariables
        Dim crtableLogoninfos As New TableLogOnInfos
        Dim crtableLogoninfo As New TableLogOnInfo
        Dim crConnectionInfo As New ConnectionInfo
        Dim CrTables As Tables
        Dim CrTable As Table
        With crConnectionInfo
            .ServerName = DataUtility.GetDataVariables.dsn
            .DatabaseName = DataUtility.GetDataVariables.Catalog
            .UserID = DataUtility.GetDataVariables.UserId
            .Password = DataUtility.GetDataVariables.Password
        End With
        CrTables = rptDoc.Database.Tables
        For Each CrTable In CrTables
            crtableLogoninfo = CrTable.LogOnInfo
            crtableLogoninfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo
            CrTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crtableLogoninfo)
        Next
        If rptDoc.Subreports.Count > 0 Then
            For count As Integer = 0 To rptDoc.Subreports.Count - 1
                CrTables = rptDoc.Subreports(count).Database.Tables
                For Each CrTable In CrTables
                    crtableLogoninfo = CrTable.LogOnInfo
                    crtableLogoninfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo
                    CrTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crtableLogoninfo)
                Next
            Next
        End If
        newreport.rptViewer.ReportSource = rptDoc
        newreport.Show()
I have steped through the code and the database name, userid, password , server name are being picked up properly.
I am sending the name of the DSN for the Server Name and instead of the default database I am passing the name of a test database. When the report is displayed, the data is being retrieved from the production databse instead o f test.

Change default boot display, is it possible?

Hi!
I have MSI N660 TF 2GD5 OC card with two devices connected: 1) LCD monitor via DVI-D, 2) Projector via DVI-A.
Every time I turn on the PC I don't see anything on monitor until Windows starts. Video output during boot process goes to projector even though it's turned off.
Is it possible to change default output during system start up?
Swapping connectors isn't possible physically, because DVI-A have extra pins that won't fit to another socket.
If not, whats socket "default priority"? I'm thinking of buying hdmi cable for my projector to fix issue, will it help?

The dual link DVI-I connector you are most likely using for the DVI-A device is the primary connector. If it is connected to any display it will always be used for primary display when starting.
Solution would be to use the Projector with a DVI-A or I to HDMI or Displayport adapter or DVI-A or I to DVI-D adapter so you can use the monitor with the DVI-I connector.

Is it possible to change the Database default date format 'dd/mm/yy'

I'm inserting a date with the format 'dd-mon-yy' in a column, it gives the error:- " a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected ". I also tried the TO_DATE function but not successful.
I want to change the Database default Date format 'dd/mm/yy' to 'dd-mon-yy'. Is it possible?
version is (Oracle Server 7.3.2.0). I checked it on version ( Oracle Server 7.3.4.0) with format of 'dd-mon-yy'.
May I keep the both formats at a time?
Thanks for solution(s),
Tariq.

you can try with:
ALTER SESSION
SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'dd-mon-yy';

Changing default SQL database within Teststand

I am designing a "universal" test system for a variety of my company's products.
The test results are supposed to be logged to a MS SQL (2008) database. I've created two databases for two different products. Let's call them OneTestDB and TwoTestDB for now.
No problems so far. Now, I want to use a user, TestLogin, to write the test data to the both of my databases, however, TestLogin can seems only to be able to write to the DB set as default.
I could solve the problem by using different users, but since I want it to be possible for the same user to test different products, I would prefer to avoid this.
After searching the net for an answer I found that that what I'm trying to do is done by the query "EXEC sp_defaultdb 'USER', 'DATABASE'. (Would USE {DATABASE} work as well?)
The database name is given at runtime. (DATABASE = StationGlobals.ProductName + "TestDB")
Here is my question: how , and where, to put that code into Teststand (2010 SP1) so that I can change the database to which I want to save the test results?
I have been trying to use the database tools given in Teststand, but obviously I am not doing it the right way.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I managed to fix it myself.
The solution was the following SQL statement "EXEC sp_defaultdb 'TestLogin', '" + StationGlobals.ProductName + "TestDB'"
If someone has a better idea how to solve the issue, feel free to enlighten me.

Change default Windows background during deployment

I have a Windows deployment server up and running and deploying custom Windows 7&8 images which all work fine. I want to be able to change the default Windows background to a custom image during deployment so when a new user is created and logs in locally,
my image is displayed rather than the default one. I know this can be done by changing an entry in the registry, but I would like some help in creating a script to do this during deployment and also where this script would have to be placed and how to run
this. I am a noob at scripting and any help would be appreciated! ;)
Thanks in advance

I am using the process documented at the link below in my builds today with a lot of success. In addition to setting the background for every user, it will also allow for setting the colors and accents. Pretty good stuff from the guys at CoreTech.

Database in Use During Export

We have a data export scheduled every day, during the daytime (not sure why). However, we often run into an issue where the script tries to run, but cannot do the export because the "Database is in use". This is probably because users are executing calculations or writing to the database at that time.
How should we avert this problem? Incorporate force log off into the script maybe? Was just wondering how folks here dealt with database exports and other operations which lock down the database during the daytime.

Why don't you write a report script that exports the same information. Report scripts are not exclusive operations.
I think you could use (if BSO) the DATAEXPORT command which is also not exlcusive.
Lastly, although I have not used it, you might look at Star Analytics' Star Integration Server (don't sell it, don't work for them, haven't seen it in ages, but it is a pretty cool utility) for exports as well.

During export from Discover to Excel, Time Format changes to Number Format

Hi
I have a seconds column which is of number datatype. But in my report, I am converting the number in *0HH:MI:SS* format. For example, I have *4952534 seconds*. So my report is showing *1375:42:14* which is a Time Format. It looks good when I view the data in Discoverer Viewer or Plus. But when I try to export the data to Excel, the time format gets converted to *4952534 seconds*, which is creating problems. So can you suggest on how can I preserve the formatting during export to excel from discoverer.
Thanks
Sachin

Hi,
Excel will not implement the 0HH:MI:SS data format, it just gets the field as a number. You will have to format the field into text using the calculation from my previous post.

BO 4.1 SP04 Installation on Linux - Changing CMS Database to HANA

Hi All,
Greetings!!
We are planning to install BO 4.1 SP04 on SUSE Linux 11.0 SP03. And we are going to fetch data directly from ECC (HANA Database), so no BW in place.
During BO installaiton we will go with the default database Sybase SQL Anywhere for CMS and audit storage but later on we will export the data to HANA Database which is our prime aim.
Can you please help us with the procedure for doing the same in Linux environment (Changing the CMS database from SQL Anywhere to HANA) and also the is there any other pre-requisites should be done to for fetching the data directly from HANA without the usage of BW.
Looking forward for your suggestions & solutions for the same...
NOTE : Our HANA Version is 1.0 SP07 Rev 73 & planned BO verison is 4.1 SP04

Change the database charecterset in 9.2.0.7

Hi,
we have 9.2.0.7 database running on HP-UX Itanium 64bit.
we have current WE8MSWIN1252 as the charecter set. we use this db for banking application. This Database contains english and Arabic data also.
so we are in the process of upgrade of banking application and new apps version is not supporting the our current database charecterset.
so we need to change our database charecter set from WE8MSWIN1252 to AR8ISO8859P6.
our database contains 1500 tables and in that 200 tables contains millions of rows and contains arabic data also.
so guys, please suggest me with best strategies and preacuations, that i have to follow during the charecterset migration?
Edited by: oraDBA2 on Apr 13, 2009 11:29 AM

If you expect that the database is currently storing Arabic data in CHAR/ VARCHAR2 columns and that the database character set is Windows-1252, you have a problem. Windows-1252 does not support Arabic characters. So if you have stored Arabic characters in a Windows-1252 database, there must be a substantial configuration issue which is going to make changing the database character set massively more complicated.
Realistically, you are going to have to jump through some hoops by
- unloading all the data to flat files using a tool that respects the NLS_LANG of the client machine (and setting the NLS_LANG to match the database server character set)
- determining the actual character set used to encode the Arabic data (which may or may not be ISO 8859-6)
- Using SQL*Loader (with a control file that specifies the actual source character set) to load all the data into a new database with the proper database character set
You're not going to be able to use Oracle tools like import and export here since that would involve doing a character set conversion that would further corrupt your data.

Ora-1555 during exports and imports. possible causes. ?

From my understanding : I know that this error will occur due to a undo retention being smaller sizer. or rather I should put it that increasing this parameter should help fix the issue.
Whats not clear is below :
Qn. Is it possible that ORA-1555 errors can occur during 'import' even if no other sessions are connected and performing any transaction/dmls ?
Qn. Also why does a ORA-1555 occur during a 'export' ? Is the same reasons ie. there could be possible DMLs occuring ?

Hello,
About your first question:
Qn. Is it possible that ORA-1555 errors can occur during 'import' even if no other sessions are connected and performing any transaction/dmls ?I've never got this error during import but, I always care to get enough place on the UNDO Tablespace.
With classical import you have a commit after each Table's import (by default) and a commit after each row's import if COMMIT=Y so as to use less space in the Rollback Segment.
With Datapump, I often decrease the undo_retention parameter before importing so as to use less space on the UNDO Tablespace.
About the second question:
Qn. Also why does a ORA-1555 occur during a 'export' ? Is the same reasons ie. there could be possible DMLs occuring ?To get a consistent image of the exported data with the classical export you may use the parameter CONSISTENT=Y. While you may use the FLASHBACK_TIME parameter with Datapump (so it means that the undo_retention should be large enough when exporting).
Both use the Undo entries, so I imagine that's possible to get some error (may be ORA-01555) if you don't have enough place on your UNDO Tablespace.
It's possible (thank to the Rollback Segments) to have concurrent DML on the database while exporting.
Anyway, from my point of view, while exporting or importing if you have enough space on your UNDO tablespace and a correct undo_retention setting (not too large when importing not too small when exporting) it should be fine.
Hope this help.
Best regards,
Jean-Valentin

Failed to post data to database during "Update": SQL Statement

Change default dissolve

Hi folks, I am new and I sure hope someone can help me. I have been trying to change the default Cross Dissolve, following the directions in "Help" and spending hours trying other things as well, to try to make it work. I change the transition time to various things, then control/click and select Change Default—it doesn't work. I just get the same old useless one-frame dissolve. Sometimes I can get a dissolve that is longer, but I can't repeat it. And I can't adjust it in the timeline. And sometimes it just does things I didn't ask it to do, like give me a four-frame dissolve a few times, then it goes back to one frame spontaneously. I don't think I am an idiot. This is not intuitive at all, and the directions in "Help" are useless. Does anyone know how to change the duration of a dissolve, in such a way that it actually changes, and is actually repeatable? Please help!

I still have the weirdo changing dissolve length bug on my systems here but Handles are pretty simple in concept but easy to forget.
If you cut a 3 second clip so you're just using the middle second, then that clip has a one second "handle" before the In cut and after the Out cut.
Now, imagine you export that clip going only by it's edit points so you ONLY have the middle second exported to a QT movie or something. Then there are no handles before or after those original clips.
For me thinking in terms of splicing film helped me grasp this when I went from Flatbeds to Final Cut. In order to do a dissolve with actual film you need to lay the two pieces of film atop one another so they overlap - the overlap is the dissolve and the overlap is the overlapping of the two pieces of film's "handles".
The handle is the little bit of extra you need to make the dissolve before the image is dissolve free and into the next shot.
You can also think of handles this way: Take one clip and put it on V1, then take another clip and put it on V2 but place it a full second further down the timeline. Now you have two clips that overlap for one second.
Manually fade the first clip DOWN during the overlap, then manually fade the second later clip UP during that overlap. The overlap there are the clip's handles.
