Cloning Oracle 11g to 10g

Hi Guru's,
I have a query regarding clonning DB from 11g o 10g.
Machine A is on linux with DB Version 11g and machine B is on windows with DB Version 10g. Is it possible to clone DB 11g which is on Linux machine to DB 10g which is on Windows machine.
Kindly advice over the same

By definition a clone is an exact copy, so if you clone your 11g DB you will have another 11g DB. The only way to make it 10g is to change it in some way. Downgrade, for example.
Have you already read through the Oracle docs?
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmxplat.htm#CHDFHBFI
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmdupdb.htm#i1008564
I very much doubt RMAN will allow you to downgrade the DB while duplicating it.

From the trace files, we see that the issue is with the seeded view, mrp_item_sourcing_levels_v.
Need pointers for fixing the performance.

The ETRM says this about the view:
***** Warning: Oracle Internal Use Only *****
Oracle Corporation does not support access to Oracle
applications data using this object, except from standard Oracle Applications programs.
which is a powerful suggestion that you should not be addressing this view directly. Looking at the source code for the view, it has a bunch of UNIONs that may prevent view merging, and all the queries have loads of hints coded within them. So really, there is little you can do about this.
It looks pretty simple to re-write your query to avoid addressing this view, you are using it only to retrieve a couple of columns. If you look at the source code for the view you'll see that you can get them easily without going through the view.

Forms 10g - Oracle 11g DB - Date Format Error - Urgent

Hi All,
We are migrating forms 6i to forms 10g.Data Base is 9i to 11g Migration.
In 10g forms pre-form trigger ,i have statement
:head.yr_st_dt := to_date(sc.get_property('ps.yr_st_dt'),'MON DD YYYY HH:MI:SSPM');
In 6i ,it is working fine,the :head.yr_st_dt=22-SEP-09.
In 1og forms with 11g Database, I am getting the below error
frm-40735:PRE-FORM trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-01843
It seems invalid month.
In 9i ,the NLS_DATE_FORMAT is DD-MON-RR.In 11g also same.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Shan

user642745: In the list of forum topics, the fourth topic down is this:
Before posting on this forum please read. Within that post there is a recommendation: "Also read the 10 Commandments on OTN forum posting." with this link: http://blogs.oracle.com/shay/2007/03/02
Please read and follow step 6, "Get a name".
You now have 101 posts to your "user642745" name. When you write, it is difficult to distinguish between your post and the original poster's since you both have a similar number as your names.
user648338: It is clear you do not understand how Oracle handles dates. Depending on the NLS_DATE_FORMAT and NLS_LANG for the session you are running, you will get different results when you display your sc.get_property('ps.yr_st_dt') output.
The fact that you are even trying to execute the command:
select to_date('01-MAY-09','MON DD YYYY HH:MI:SSPM') from dual;shows that you do not understand standard date processing.
Internally, Oracle stores ALL dates in a 7-byte format that includes both date AND time.
The fact that you are getting results like 01-MAY-09 just means that your session is running with NLS_DATE_FORMAT set to DD-MON-YY. It does NOT mean that the date is stored that way.
Your entire problem is caused by the fact that the system on which your old Oracle 9i -- Forms 6i environment has its NLS_DATE_FORMAT (and possibly NLS_LANG) set differently than on your Oracle 11g -- Forms 10g environment.
If you can set your new environment the same as the old, your trouble will go away. Here is how you determine what the values of those environment variables are. Run this in SQL Plus:
select * from nls_session_parameters
where parameter in('NLS_LANGUAGE','NLS_TERRITORY',
'NLS_DATE_FORMAT','NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE');Be aware, though, that it is possible for your Forms environment to change the settings only for the Forms sessions, so what you get from SQL Plus may not be the same.

Can Oracle 11g RAC and 10g RAC co-exists on same host

Can somebody tell me if it is possible to have Oracle 11g and 10g RAC installed and configured on same host.
Thanks,

Thanks,
-ZubairYou have to use 11G Clusterware , if you want to use 11g Database and you can use 10g Database as well.
(You can not use 10g Clusterware and 11g Clusterware on the same host...)
But you can use 10g Database and 11g Database on the same host, But you have to use 11G Clusterware.

Parse times in Oracle 11G

Has anyone else experienced extremely long parse times for Oracle 11G versus 10G? We are experiencing at least a 10 times increase in the parsing of our SQL statements. This is causing our customers to complain when running reports which contain several SQL statements that aren't in the SGA due to the infrequent use. I have opened a Service Request and development stated that this is to be expected with Oracle 11G due to the new optimizer features. I have tried to disable the features by settting the optimizer version to anything but 11G and no setting has helped. To make thing even worse, this increased parse time is on a new server that should be 2.5 times faster than the server that is running the 10G database. I do get at least a 2.5 times increase, larger if I/O intensive, in almost every other aspect of the database except for the parse times.

user5999814 wrote:
I wondered what the resolution was to this issue. We currently experiencing this will our Oracle 11.1.0.7 database with a small but important set of queries and it seems to be getting worse. We first noticed it with a query that went from taking 3.5 seconds to 7 seconds. A SQLTrace / TKProf revealed that 99% of the time was being spent during the parsing. A second similar query that brings in more data is taking around 1.5 minutes to parse then only a few seconds to actually execute. These are queries that are part of on online web transaction so this is not acceptable. We are able to replicate the behavior in multiple database instances.As a starting point it would be interesting to see the tkprof output from :

This is expected behavious. It is because Enterprise Manager cannot run with the new server name. You can either go through loads to change the config files or simply drop and recreate the console.

Oracle Upgrade from 10g to 11g [BRANCHED BY MODERATOR]

Hi Deepak/Folks,
Another question that I have is that while doing the Oracle Upgrade on an EP server, the patches were not installed properly and I had to shut down the Patches installation after it did not do anything for a while.
Now when I try to install the patches it fails telling me that the Installed patches cannot be verified, I had written to SAP and they told me to follow the
SAP note 1862446 - Inventory
load failed... OPatch cannot load inventory for the given Oracle Home
and re-create the oracle inventory.
This has also not helped in anyway.
Is there a solution to this problem.
Following is the error that I am getting when I try to Install the patches
Getting pre-run patch inventory...

Oracle Upgrade from 10g to 11g [BRANCHED BY MODERATOR]

Oracle Application Server 10g Cloning - Urgent

Hello All,
I have been given a new assignment which involves Oracle Applications server 10g, i am new to oracle application server and hoping that some one will please clarify my doubts.
i have to clone a production machine (Solaris 10) which has oracle AS 10g, this machine had oracle database 10g before and just the application server was installed on it, i have to clone a test environment for this machine, i have the following two doubts
1) Is it possible to just install Oracle Application server 10g on a machine which already contains oracle 10g database, if so then what about the database that gets installed when installing Oracle application server 10g.
2) How to clone the above production machine, should the oracle 10g database be cloned first and then oracle application server 10g cloned on the new machine?
Eagerly waiting for a reply

2) How to clone the above production machine, should the oracle 10g database be cloned first and then oracle application server 10g cloned on the new machine?1) Yes, it is possible. The DB that comes with OAS as the infrastructure DB for it (I presume you are installing a full OAS with infrastructure and midtier both) does not affect the DB you already have on your system ... obviously ... as long as you install them in their separate homes.
2) I always say, this term cloning is somewhat loosely used in general communication meaning making copies. In OAS context, Cloning works for middletiers only. You cannot clone an infrastructure.
To make a redundant/alternate environment for OAS, you can do the following:
- a) either use the same infra on machine 1, and install another midtier and register with the same infra.
- b) or install a separate infra on machine 2, and also a midtier registered with it.
Here for the first option a), Cloning can be used because you can (*only*) clone a middle-tier. There are pros and cons for this setup, including that you share the SSO, and OID, and hence users and groups bases, etc on those two environments - something that you may or may not want. But then there are also some way-outs to avoid them or minimize their effects too. Please see the following reference for cloning and search on Metalink for how to minimize effects, once you get better familiar with the processes.
Oracle® Application Server Administrator's Guide

[10 Cloning Application Server Middle-Tier Instances|http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/core.1012/b13995/cloning.htm#BCGBDIDF]
For b), you will need to Stage a server as defined in this reference.
[11 Staging a Test Environment from a Production Environment|http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/core.1012/b13995/prodtest.htm]
There are some notes on Metalink which address issues about benefits or procedures of Cloning and Staging an environment too.
There are some other ways to export/transport your applications to another instance across DB. Please also read about them.
hope that helps!

Need help regarding upgrading Oracle 10g Forms to Oracle 11g Fusion Middlew

Hi All,
I am trying to create a workshop on a VM for showing the migration / upgrading of Oracle Forms 10g to Oracle 11g FMW using the Upgrade Assistant tool available in <ORACLE_HOME>/bin/ua.bat.
As per my understanding of pre-requisites:
1)     I need to install Oracle SOA Suite 10g on my VM.
2)     I also need to install Oracle SOA Suite 11g on my VM.
3)     I need to install Oracle Forms/Reports Services 10g on my Oracle SOA Suite 10g installation.
4)     I need to run Oracle Forms/reports installer on my Oracle SOA Suite 11g installation.
5)     I need to run upgrade assistant tool on my VM to upgrade my form from source(Oracle SOA Suite 10g) to destination(Oracle SOA Suite 11g). Is it mandatory for this migration that I should have Oracle SOA Suite 10g and Oracle SOA Suite 11g on the same system ?
Having all these software installed on one VM would be difficult. So just wanted to check can I avoid any software to install on VM ?
If there is any alternative suggestion then please let me know.
Regards,

What do you want to do with the SOA-suite? At least for Froms10G is is not necessary.
