Change ORACLE HOME NAME

Can we change ORACLE HOME NAME(not oracle_home path) in oracle?
If yes please let me know.
Thanks in advance,

You can change this in windows from regedit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\KEY_<ORACLE_HOME_NAME> and linux export ORACLE_HOME_NAME=<new name>

How to Find Oracle Home Name

Hi All,
I am trying to find what is the name provided for ORACLE HOME NAME for SSO Midtier.
The install log files are not available. Now when i try to patch the SSO it is prompting for the Oracle home name and path, for which I donot know the value for Oracle Home Name.
Is there any file apart from install log will have this value or is there any way i can see it from the OEM console?
Regards,
Balaji

Hi,
The server has:
1 SSO
1 MidTier
But have been installed with the same Oracle Home Name - oracleas
Now I have to patch the SSO to 10.1.2.2.0
During patching if I give oracelas1 as oracle home name it automatically changes its path to Mid Tier path.
If i manually change it to SSO path it throws an error.
If i give a new Oracle Home Name manually and type the oracle home for SSO, it says this SSO doesnot need the patch 10.1.2.2.0 but the SSO still runs on 10.1.2.0.2
Let me know if i am clearly.

Balaji

Changing the home name

I just bought a powermac g5 off my friend and the main user account is under my name but the home icon is still in his name and most of the computer information has his name on it. I don't want to re do the whole computer because it has a lot of programs on it that i don't want to get rid of. How do I change the home name on the computer.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Be sure your friend follows this procedure*:

How to change the Home Name

Hi,
I'm on a a MacbookPro5.5 and for some reason, my Home name (that resides on the left sidebar) is still listed as 'Apple'.
I want to change the Home name and so I've right-clicked it and gone into the 'Get Info' window. But the Name field is greyed out and won't let me enter a new name. I've tried changing all privledges to 'read and write' but that does not seem to help at all.
I appreciate any pointers on this ...
Many Thanks, Frank B.

I bought a macbook air mac os x 10.7.4 from a colleague,how can change the home name.ty

i bought a macbook air from a colleague (mac os x 10.7.4) iw ant to change the home name how can i do it

Really, the colleague should have restored the computer to the original state before he sold/gave it to you.
Ideally, you would erase the drive, and reinstall the operating system to make the computer system "yours", entirely. Your natural apprehension is that you probably want to inherit all of the colleague's installed applications and files (some of which probably violates licenses for those apps and files), right?.
Provided that you are legally acquiring all these files/apps, alternatively create another admin user (you), and then login under the other user name and transfer all wanted/needed files in the colleague's home directory to the shared directory. Then login as "you", and subsequently transfer these files to your user directory. After this is all done, delete the colleague's admin account (deleting the old users directories as well).

Disc change - Oracle Home Dir.

Hi!
We need to change a disc on one of our servers. The Oracle Home directory is installed on this
disc.
We would like to proceed as follows:
1) Backup the entire database (in case of recovery/restore)
2) Copy the home directory to an external disc
3) Change disc, setup raid, create new partition with same disc label
4) Copy the home directory from the ext. disc onto the new disc
My question: Would Oracle recognize the new disc as the "old" disc or will the system throw an error?
Thanks!

Re-config of ssh fails after changing Oracle Home while installing RAC

Hi,
Red Hat Linux 5
Oracle 10.2.0.1 RAC installation
While installing Oracle RAC under ORACLE user we are Configuring ssh for the first time works fine. If any changes done (Eg: i changed the home path of oracle user), then the ssh configuration will prompt for password no matter how many times you reconfigure the ssh.
I have created another OS user orclusr instead of oracle to over come this issue
Have any one came across this situation or finds a solution, please reply back.

Hi,
One of the most important reasons for building Real Application Clusters is stability.
Changing the Oracle Home, after the cluster is built is about 180 degrees counter to this philosophy.
I agree with this but we face the error while installing oracle cluster
here is my scenario:
create oracle user on both the nodes(rac1,rac2):
1) my first oracle home - /home/oraclePart of thinking these things through before proceeding is to recognize that the concept of ORACLE_HOME is not the same as the $HOME directory for the OS user who happens to be named "oracle".
Since you appear to be still in the process of building this system, I'd suggest you go back to square one while you can.
2) configure ssh on both the nodes
3) due to sapce constraint in /home mount point we changed the oracle home to /oracle
4) so my new oracle home is /oracle
5) re-configuring of ssh is working fine, no error's
6) but if i issue the below command ssg date rac2 it prompts for password why ?
Any possibility to over come this issue ?

Changing Oracle Home

I recentely installed Oracle 11g r2 to a new home and now I need to move it to another home. Is it possible without reinstalling?
This is the problem:
We already have an 11g r2 home with two other databases installed on a Windows 2003 server. I recently upgraded another database from release 1 to release 2, but put that database in a second home. After the installation, I realized it is a wast of space, plus we are having listener problem as well so I want to move the last database in the same home with the other two databases.
Can I do it, if yes how?

According to Oracle, it is a no no, you can't change or move Oracle to a new home after installation. But one thing that was not clarified is whether i can create the service name with Oradim pointing to the home with the current listener.
Can I delete the current service name from other home and create it in the home with the Listener? Right now the listener is not even listening to this service name.Ok we decided to delete the service name from the database home (OraHome_2) since we can't move or change it and installed it using OraDIM in the home (OraHome_1) were we want it. This is the same home with the default Oracle Listener. The listener detected the service with no time. The only draw back is we had to reinstall enterprise manager.

How change Oracle Homes ? - ORA-12154

Hi
I am stuck with a bug for 2 days now.
I can open the DB with TOAD or SQL/PLUS easily
When i open TOAD, if i choiose 10g as client "i have a TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified ".
If i choose oracle92 as client, i access the database via TOAD
My .NET App prompt me the same error message
So How can i say to my app or the operating system that i always want to use 92 ?
My permission are OK for the oracle folder.
In my environnement variables i have
$ORACLE_OUI_PATH$ = C:\oracle\ora92\bin
TNS_ADMIN = C:\oracle\ora92\network\ADMIN
S.O.S.

But like i said, with TOAD, if i choose 10g as client
(in the dropdown in the connection screen) i have the
ORA-12154 error.
If i choose 9.2, everything is OK
This is the bug. How can i change this ? re-installed
?Not a bug, I think. Sounds like misconfig.
Error Message text includes:
// - Check that the net service name used as the connect identifier
// exists in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
// - Make sure there are no syntax errors anywhere in the TNSNAMES.ORA
// file. Look for unmatched parentheses or stray characters. Errors
// in a TNSNAMES.ORA file may make it unusable.
TNSNAMES.ORA & SQLNET.ORA are configure properlyIs your tns name identical in both tnsnames.ora?
Is a sqlnet domain in 9i home configured? Is this domain used in tnsnames.ora?

Changed home name lost all data

Has anyone experienced this? I changed my home name (has first and last name, took out last), was on the internet, and then lost everything. Any programs I opened wanted me to register. I restarted, and now everything is gone, but it is in the original home name (first and last). I'm a college student and in a huge panic as all of my essays are on my computer, and not backed up. Not to mention my photos and other things...
What can I do to bring everything back?
Please help!!!

Open the Users folder in the Finder and rename the item with the house icon to tempfolder, and then rename the folder with your files to the former name of the folder with the house icon. Log out and back in to restore your data.
To change the name of your home folder successfully, you need to update the home property for your user account in the NetInfo Manager, which is located in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, or create a symbolic link which tells Mac OS X where to find your home folder, or use this tool to change your account's short name.

Changing Home Name

I wish to change the home name that appears at the top of the Finder screen, I suppose this should be easy I cannot work it out. Can any one help I have wasted hours?

Home name? At the top of the Finder screen? The only thing I can think of that could maybe match that description is the user name (which would match the name of your home folder) in the right side of the menu bar if you have fast user switching enabled. If you want to change your user name, that's not an easy or recommended task, but see this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1428
If that isn't what you're trying to do, you need to be a little more clear.

Finding the path to Oracle home

Hi
I am trying to get the value of "oracle home" (e.g OraDb11g_home1) and display it within my java program, not sure how to do this. One possible way it to parse the ContentsXML/inventory.xml file. The only drawback I can think of is that a user may change the directories from default during installation resulting in the program unable to find the file. Some feedback will be appreciated.
Thanks

The program will display a list of all "oracle home" names within a combo box and some input fields for authentication e.g. username and password to log in. Until they login a user will not have access to the database therefore no interaction between the user and database will take place. I am looking for an OS Level solution. The Registry option looks feasible but its not perfect as it depends on the version name to get this info, which could be an issue since not all versions store the data in same place or under the same key.Knowing ORACLE_HOME has nothing to do with connecting to a database. Why not just ask for their credentials and try to connect? If they have a valid account, they'll be connected. If they don't have a valid account, they won't be connected? Why is the app trying to add extra layers?
