Changing hostname after installing 10g

hi, have installed the SSO login server, portal and relevant database on 3 different machines running Redhat linux enterprise 3 respectively.
for the login server, the initial hostname was the default localhost.localdomain.
what are the scripts to run on the SSO server and portal server if i need to change the hostname to sso.test.net?
thx in advance.

From what I understand you cannot change the hostname on the infrastrcuture. Your best bet is to reinstall. In another post under technologies-linux, I note that the first line of the /etc/hosts is read by the installer, which is why your install defaulted to localhost.localdomain
So you need to edit your hosts file and put the real ip address and hostname first. Also, make sure you can ping the hostname on the first line as if it can't, the installer moves on to the second line of the file.
Usually the first line is going to be:
12.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain
So there will be lots of people making the same mistake that you and I did.

  • Em12c changing oms server hostname - after install

    I installed em12c R2 on a server with an incorrect /etc/hosts file. This has meant it has picked up in the configuration files the incorrect hostname.
    Is there a straightforward way of changing an oms server hostname after install?
    jason.

    Depending on what you have configured, the steps are a bit different. Basically you need to backup and restore your configuration.
    Follow the steps to completely backup your env (OMS, swlib, Repository, Agent, Inventory) for safe keeping. http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/ha_backup_recover.htm#autoId4
    Export oms config --> key piece here!
    Screenshot the OMS agent targets for validation later
    Shutdown OMS agent and remove agent targets/host/agent from EM (as these need to be renamed and restored as well)
    Shutdown oms
    Validate your DNS/hosts file is correct before proceeding!
    Then you will follow one of the recovery steps documented (as the software restore portion is not required) - for example single oms, no slb, same host - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/ha_backup_recover.htm#autoId15
    Recover agent
    Check agent targets, may require refresh of WLS Domain to get all targets in correct status again
    I have a document on the detailed steps I'd be happy to share. Please email me...

  • Cannot connect to database after installing 10g

    Hello friends at www.oracle.com ,
    after installing Oracle 10g, I am trying to use programs like SQL*Plus or Forms Builder. However, these programs are asking me for the host string, and:
    - I cannot simply ignore this question, because I cannot connect without this information.
    - But I don't know how I can configure a host string for local access.
    - And I don't know if there's already a default host string for me to use after installing Oracle 10g, because I have no practice in database configuration, since I'm a developer.
    Please help me.
    Best regards,

    Hi ,
    Few pointers which may help you , but a small caveat all instructions pertaining to way we do internally in oracle , so there could be some mismatch at customer end , but more or less logic should be same , in case you can't any step revert back :
    1. When Db asks you for connect string essentially it asks for the complete description of the db to connect including :
    Db server machine name / ip - that can be resolved from your system if it's a remote server .
    Username , Password ,
    Db Instance Name - TnsAlias mentioned in TnsNames.ora .
    Now there are few Env. variables that you need to set before running / starting an oracle db instance .
    1. Oracle_Home - Essentially Oralce Installation directory .
    2. Oracle_sid - unique identifier for Oracle Instance .
    3. For OracleDb only set T_Work and TNS_ADMIN env. variables as %Oracle_Home%\work directory and place your Listener.ora file in that folder .
    4. Make your initial parameter file init<Oracle_Sid>.ora in %Oracle_Home%\database -- default location .
    5. Create Oracle Instance specific services to run on a Windows machine , essentially they will be two and default nomenclature is :
    Oracle Service - OracleService<Oracle_Sid>
    Listener Service - Oracle<oracle_sid>TnsListener
    Now in %Oracle_Home%\bin directory you have couple have tools to help you in whole process including lsnrctl.exe , tnsping.exe , sqlplus.exe .
    and onec you start oracle instance like this :
    SQlPlus "/as sysdba" -- OS Authentication
    --- Connected to Idle instance
    Sql> startup --> this will take default parameter file
    Check out dump location for log and trace files generated if enabled .
    Now client setting :
    1. This is the place where you need appropriate connect string with all components as mentioned above .
    Check out any good site for exact syntax , but you need to make sure regarding client you are using for e.g:
    ODP.Net , Java Driver etc .
    For Client few important settings :
    Execution directory should contain tnsnames.ora
    Create T_WORK and TNS_ADMIN for execution directory .
    check out for listener connectivity using :
    tnsping <TnsAlias>
    Imp -- Include all relevant stuff in System PATH for execution from anywhere .
    Once it connects tehn you can use appropriate username / password for connecting with appropriate connection string .
    Normally while installing oracle you would have set the username and password to be changed later .
    or otherwise onec you log in as sysdba, you can create new username/password and give it sysdba permissions .
    Also imp. thing for connecting from a remote system is having Sqlnet.ora authentication file in client's T_WORK and TNS_ADMIN .
    I hope it helps upto some extent .

  • Is it possible to change NLS_CHARACTERSET after installing 10gR2 database ?

    Hi, all.
    I need to change NLS_CHARACTERSET because of the ORA-29275 error.
    SELECT * FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS
    WHERE PARAMETER LIKE '%CHARACTER%';
    Server Side : HP unix, oracle 8i 8.1.7.4

    Thus, I would like to change NLS_CHARACTERSET and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET parameters.
    The above is the default value.
    Is it possible to change those parameters after installing 10gR2 on windows xp?

    Hi,
    It is possible to migrate from certain character sets to anothers, but not allways. However, if it's a fresh installation, I recommend to create a new instance and delete this one you just created.
    You don't need to reinstall Oracle, just create a new instance. Character sets are instance related.

  • Trouble booting CentOS after installing 10g XE

    After tackled with XE on Window XP and 10g DS, I moved on to Linux. I installed CentOS 4.2, and everything seemed to work fine. Then I installed 10g XE with Start XE when CentOS boots up. Everything seemed to be fine, and I was able to login through the XE home page as system. Then I turned off the computer and went to sleep. Next day when I started the computer, my CentOS wouldn't boot. It stopped after:
    Checking SWAP Spaces [OK]
    The cursor was blinking...forever! The sad thing was I had to switched the power off to stop everything. I am a newbie to Linux. Did I miss something? Somebody help please?!

    This doesn't really mean there is a problem with the swap space. When linux startup process hangs at enabling swap space means next step (database startup) is hanging. It is just about to open the graphical console, but it freezes at this point because it is not able to startup oracle.
    When installing, did you perform the execution of '/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure' as the root user to configure the database?
    You can still enter into your linux environment, as by now the networking settings are already active. So open a session by means of ssh or telnet if available and verify this startup phase. Just as a workaround, look for the /etc/init.d/oracle-xe file that was created by the XE installation. Rename it and set just an empty file instead, so you are able to open your console. Once fixed, rename it back to its original name.
    In case of boot problems, use your rescue disk, mount your root file system and perform the outlined steps.

  • Unable to launch oracle applications after installing 10g Express

    I installed 10g express to be able to access the database using a client (TOAD). Now I am unable to launch the oracle applications. I am able to login but once I select a responsibilty and function java never launches. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    could you please let us know more about where you installed express database and why your applicatin is not working?
    But lets say if you have installed express database on your laptop and on your application is not launching, then problem could be with your application and browser. There is no connection between client and oracle application client.

  • ORA-12203 error in Forms6i, after installing 10g local DB

    Hello,
    I have a configuration with multiples Oracle_Homes as I use Disco R4, Forms6i, Forms 10g, and sqlplus. I had no problem when I used a local 9i DB. All worked fine.
    When I had the 9i DB, I decided to set a TNS_ADMIN variable and only use one version of SQLNET.ORA and TNSNAMES.ORA. All was fine !
    Recently, I have decided to install a brand new 10gR2 DB, and get rid off my 9i DB.
    Since then, only the 10g tools work fine... and I cannot connect anymore to any of my Forms6i or Disco. BIG Problem !!!
    The error is always the same : ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destinationI have made many different tries for fixing this issue...but I have no clue, and I would like some advices from you.
    Here are the details of the variables and files (after all my modifications):
    - My 10DB is located under OracleHome DB10g_OH (c:\10g\DB)
    - My Forms6i is located under OracleHome DEFAULT_HOME (c:\oraNT)
    - I created environment variables

    TWO_TASK=SCFOXD
    and
    PATH= C:\10g\DB\bin;C:\orant\bin; ....

    Looking at the listerner status, all seems fine, except the status UNKNOWN of the DB... I have no idea why it is that, as I can successfully connect it using the 10g tools (sqlplus/forms10g)
    To go further, I can reproduce the same error (like with Forms6i) when I use the DOS command window, when I run plus80.
    Anyway, I am sure there is something I missed to do... but, I am really stuck, and I would like to get some advices in order to solve my issue.

    After I installed to the recent version of quicktime (7.4.1 I think) and restarted my computer and logged on the error message "An unauthorized change was made to windows" and I was unable to use my computer.

  • Can I use 9i imp/exp utility after installing 10g

    Hello, all:
    I have two database co-exist in one machine, one is 9i, another one is 10.2, which was just installed recently . Now I need to imp/exp the 9i database, I can't invoke 9i imp/exp utility anymore, even under 9i oracle_home, I can only get 10g's imp/exp screen comes up, can someone help me? Is there anyway that I can use both version of utility in the same machine?
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    wendy

    I can't invoke 9i imp/exp utility anymoreThat might be because the 10G_ORA_HOME\BIN appears first in your PATH environment variable. Either put 9i_HOME\BIN first in your PATH or navigate to the BIN directory of 9i home and run the export/import from there.

  • /sbin not in PATH after installing lightDM?

    Sorry, I'm a tad confused here, and very new.
    When I try to run fdisk, or other similar commands found in /sbin, from the terminal... it says they aren't found.
    If I run /sbin/fdisk ,  the command works fine.  I am also not able to reboot or shut down the pc unless I do so from the terminal - /"sbin/reboot"
    I can change my path within the terminal, and fdisk works fine on its own, but obviously, once I close the terminal, that change goes away.
    The path in my /etc/profile is as follows:
    PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
    export PATH
    It looks to me like /sbin is there just fine, but what do I know.
    This change happened after installed lightDM, which otherwise works flawlessly. 
    Thanks for any help

    Sorry, I'm a total idiot today.  I couldn't remember where I read that stuff (the comments).  Anyway, before coming back here, I fixed the /sbin issue, as well as the shutdown/reboot issue with oblogout, but I don't think they are the best solutions.  (Adding path to bash.bashrc, and adding /sbin/ to oblogout.conf)
    Maybe I will try another DM instead.  This is just my first shot at anything linux, so.. I'm having fun!

    Hi,
    1. Stop the DBConsole. (set ORACLE_SID first & ORACLE_HOME)
    cd %ORACLE_HOME%\bin
    emctl stop dbconsole
    2. Update the <ORACLE_HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emd.properties file.
    Change line from:
    tracelevel.main=WARN
    To
    tracelevel.main=DEBUG
    Decomment this line, so that the line becomes :
    EMAGENT_PERL_TRACE_LEVEL=DEBUG
    3. Update the <ORACLE__HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emomslogging.properties
    Change line from:
    log4j.rootCategory=WARN, emlogAppender, emtrcAppender
    To
    log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, emlogAppender, emtrcAppender
    4. Remove/backup all log files from ORACLE_HOME/<hostname_sid>/sysman/log
    5. Start the dbconsole and upload the output of each command
    - start the dbconsole: "emctl start dbconsole"
    - issue "emctl clearstate"
    - status the dbconsole: "emctl status dbconsole"
    - check the status of the agent until it comes up: "emctl status agent"
    - force an upload: emctl upload
    6. Check If you are able to view the dbconsole Page & login
    check below logs may be you can see the close error messages to solve the issue.
    <ORACLE_HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/log directory
    <ORACLE_HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emoms.properties
    Otherwise re-create the DBconsole using the metalink doc 278100.1 : How To Drop, Create And Recreate DB Control In A 10g Database. (Please check the steps from Recreate/ReConfig DB Control, if you want to re-create)

  • How to change (NT)Domain Name after installed ERP?

    Hello,
    We are planning to change (NT) Domain Name on environment of already installed ERP/BW(WAS 6.40)/SRM/SolMan(NW 7.0).
    We know SAP recommend that customer should be Re-install or System-copy SAP-System if the Domain name is changed after installed systems.
    However, we do not have enough time and budget for doing that.
    Questions:
    1). If the (NT) Domain name will be changed, we only need to change the
    OS users of service for SAP-System?
    (I think that it is needed to change only OS-users of SAP-service. Is there other setting for that?)
    2). The method of only changing users of SAP-service is not supported in this case?
    (The customer will be not taken the SAP-Official support after doing that?)

    Dear
    Changing domain name is not supported by SAP if done in a productive environment (after systems have gone live).
    You will probably not get support by SAP after you change the domain name once system is live.
    There are a bunch of changes you will need to perform as well.
    The domain name is probably existing in the RFC's and you cannot change all of those through SM59.
    You will need to update those entries at Oracle level.
    SAP parameters containing domain name
    Java environment where domain name is contained
    Reset hostname buffer
    Service marketplace
    SAP Logon
    STMS
    Monitoring perhaps, non SAP job scheduling
    Please reward points accordingly
    Kind regards

    Hi all
    I'm new to Linux and I would like your help and directions on a few things:
    After 2 days of battle with RPM's (i386 vs x86_64) i was finally able to install 10g R2 on OEL 4.7 x86_64 system without any errors.
    please check if all these settings are correct and help me how to start sqlplus? or create a database with dbca
    I followed all the directions in Doc ID: 339510.1.
    During installation i choose this path as the ORACLE_HOME
    /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/
    I did not however installed the default database.
    I then ran the two scripts at the end of the installation as root.
    Here are my settings:
    oracle bash_profile:
    # .bash_profile
    # Get the aliases and functions
    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
    . ~/.bashrc
    fi
    # User specific environment and startup programs
    PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
    export PATH
    unset USERNAME
    :q
    ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
    export ORACLE_BASE
    ORACLE_HOME=/product/10.2.0/db_1;
    export ORACLE_HOME
    export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
    here is my oracle env result
    [oracle@nycoralp01 /]$ env | grep -i ORACLE
    OLDPWD=/home/oracle/oraInventory
    USER=oracle
    ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
    MAIL=/var/spool/mail/oracle
    PATH=/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/oracle/bin

    here is my echo $ORACLE_HOME result:
    [oracle@nycoralp01 /]$ echo $ORACLE_HOME
    /product/10.2.0/db_1
    Can someone please tell me what did i miss or did not set?
    When i try to run sqlplus i get this error
    [oracle@nycoralp01 /]$ sqlplus
    -bash: sqlplus: command not found
    Any help appreciated

    I change it in my bash_profile
    $ vi ~oracle/.bash_profile
    # .bash_profile
    # Get the aliases and functions
    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
    . ~/.bashrc

    # User specific environment and startup programs
    PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
    export PATH
    unset USERNAME
    :q
    ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
    export ORACLE_BASE
    ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1;
    export ORACLE_HOME
    export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
    and i'm still getting the same error
    -bash: sqlplus: command not found
    Is there anything else i'm missing? do i have to restart anything?
