Hi Group,
I would appreciate your suggestions on the best procedure and alternatives to

Thanks in advance.

Hi Anand,
Can we create a oracle service for already running database? If so can you please guide me how to perform.
Thanks,
DasarathIf your service does not exists or not running its mean your database actually is not running.Create new service using oradim for example
C:\Documents and Settings\chinar>set ORACLE_SID=SB

Symantec antivirus Best practice for oracle database on windows server 2003

Hi all,
I have an oracle database server on windows server 2003 platform of version 10.2.0.4. what would be best practice of running symantec antivirus on that server as well as database file exclusions from scanning them.
My server had rebooted unexpectedly for many times. in event log i have id as 6008. what may be cause of it..?

Normally, you don't run a virus scanner on a database server because your database server isn't vulnerable to viruses. It's behind firewalls, people aren't reading mail on it, people aren't plugging thumb drives into it, etc. If you do decide that you need to run a virus scanner on a database server, at least exclude the Oracle data files from the scan. Oracle gets very unhappy if someone else tries to open its data files (or, worse, if someone opens a data file before it gets the chance to acquire exclusive access).

Host Credentials Validation Error - Oracle database on Windows Server 2008

I am trying to log into an oracle database residing on a windows 2008 server through enterprise manager. I keep getting the error Validation error - �. I have added my username to the "log on as bacth job" properties. but I still keep getting this error.

Try also adding:
Logon as a Service and Act as Part of the Operating System.
I assume you are using a domain account and not one that is local to the box being monitored, correct?
Also, in OEM, go to Preferences...Preferred Credentials and enter the user name and password that you are using for the Normal Username and Normal Password and then click test. If this works, you should be good to go.

Connect to Oracle Database from Windows Mobile

Is there any Oracle Client product that will allow Windows mobile powered devices to connect to an oracle database? I'm using .net and the compact framework 2.0.
Anyone have a clue?
Regards,
Andras Eliassen

I think I would call it a client tool. Maybe I wasn't so precise in my previous post, sorry. What I need is basically this:
I have a 9i database that is running on a unix box on my network. I have created a Visual Basic .Net application that is using ODT to select, insert, update and delete records in this database - and also executes some stored procedures.
Now I'm trying to move to the next step, and I want my windows mobile powered device/phone to do the same thing - Select, insert, update, delete and execute stored proc/pckgs on the database.
The only way I have found to do this, is by implementing some webservice or something in between my windows mobile device, and the database, because I cannot find dataaccess drivers/components (ODT or the like) that will work on a windows mobile powered device.
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Andras Eliassen

Copy Oracle Database /Software

I have an Production IBM AIX server that has our Oracle 8.1 database on it. Then I have a different test environment IBM AIX server. Is there a way to copy the Oracle database from the production to my the test environment?
Thanks in advance

Hello
Yes, there is a way.
I suppose You install oracle software in test environment.
Create a cold or hot backup (or rman) from production DB. Copy all related files - $ORACLE_BASE/admin/<YOUR SID> to test server.
If DB files' path the same as production then You can start DB, if not, You must change filename with alter database rename file 'old path' to 'new path'; in mount mode.
Do not remember from password file.

Oracle database on windows

Hi, I have installed oracle 11g on windows for testing purpose. I am facing few issues:
1) after logging to database. I executed 'Shutdown' command. i took much time. but after that I executed startup. now the databse is not starting uo back.
it says : ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
2) how can we check the status of database whether it is up and running or down
I know in linux, we can check it by ps -ux |grep tns
is there any similar command in windows
3) moreover, I created the general database by using dbca utility. but it did not craeted the default tables . i.e emp, dept etc.
I guess these are the basic tables that gets created.
Thanks
Charandeep S.

I did all the steps as mentioned by you
+1.Please check pfile is present.ORACLE_HOME\database\initorcl.ora+
I could not find the file initorcl.ora, however there is a file named SPFILEORCL.ORA.
+2.Please check the services.msc as vinayak said.if the service Oracleserviceorcl is not there ,create the service like c:\...>oradim -new -sid orcl -syspwd sys+
I have tried a lot and finally found the services and working now.
+3.the service should be present and started.if not... start it by right click -->Start.+
I started all the services.
+4.set the oracle_sid.c:\...>set oracle_sid=*orcl*+
Done
+5.check if it is set.c:\...>echo '%oracle_sid%'+
Working :)
+6.connect to oracle c:\...>sqlplus sys as sysdba+
Connected
+7.startup the database instance.c:\...>startup+
it get started
+8.see the status of the instance.c:\...sql>select status from v$instance;+
OPEN
+9.see the status of the database.c:\...sql>select open_mode from v$database;+
READ WRITE
So all the steps are working I guess and the my issue is resolved. Thank you so much for your help

Oracle database and Windows Active directory authentication

Hello,
Our developers have created a couple of web apps which look at our oracle database. Presently they use the APPS user and the user/password is hard coded into the config files.
Is it possible to authenticate these using Windows Active Directory instead? Is it possible to use AD authentication for all developer access to the database?
I'm trying to research this on the web but getting very confused. Would a lot of work be involved to get this up and running?
Is anyone able to offer and advise?
Thank you very much
Sarah

I don't have experience in joining a Linux system with Windows AD, and it generally does not sound like the best idea to me, but since Oracle Enterprise Linux is a clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the solution you are looking for could be called Winbind.
Perhaps the following links are useful:

Oracle database and Windows Vista

When trying to install Oracle database products (9i as well as 10g), I'm politely told that there were known compatibility problems prohibiting installation of Oracle on Vista. Any known way around this? Any schedule for a Vista compatible version of Oracle?

I've sucessfully installed 10gR2 on Vista Bussines
setting the Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode on the
setup.exe file and completly disabling DEP.
Hope this helps ...great, of course this helps. My hat is off to you - I mean, setting compatibility mode for setup.exe is a essentially a no-brainer but how on earth did you manage to find out about DEP having impact on the setup. .
Can we assume that the installation works,i.e. instance up, mounted and anxiously awaits being provided with data? Listener(s) listen and talk as expected?
