Creating database in other mount point

i had installed oracle 10g in mount point u01 but i want to create database in mount point u02
how can i do this??
i had to do this by using dbca

This is the same as yesterday's question:
creating mountpoint after installation
Whatever you did yesterday when you typed "u01", just do the same but type "u02".
There was no need to create a new post just for this.
Perhaps you need to spend more time reading what others have already posted into various forum web sites instead of splattering your questions and expecting others to tell you every minuscule step to do.
This thread is locked because you are just repeating yourself.

Having issue restarting database after switching mount point

We needed to change the mount point of the disk that has our mount points, so instead of going to /opt, it going to /opt/san/mdb4. I have created a control file to use to start up the database, but I'm still having issues. Here is part of the control file:
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE SET DATABASE "INVEST" RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
MAXLOGFILES 64
MAXLOGMEMBERS 2
MAXDATAFILES 254
MAXINSTANCES 16
MAXLOGHISTORY 1815
LOGFILE
GROUP 1 (
'/opt/san/mdb4/db02/oradata/INVEST/redo01a.log',
'/opt/san/mdb4/db03/oradata/INVEST/redo01b.log'

etc....

etc...
CHARACTER SET UTF8
All of the files are in the correct spot. I have also edited the init.ora file so that the directories are correct. This is the error that I get every time:
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE SET DATABASE "INVEST" RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
ORA-01503: CREATE CONTROLFILE failed

Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Let me know.

According to error message you have syntax error in your create statement. double check it.

Moving the database to different mount point.

Hi,
I have R12 app tier on one server and 10gR2 database on separate server.
I want to move the database files from /u01/oradata/PROD to /u02/oradata/PROD on the same server.
I know how to do this for the database using alter database rename file .....
But what do I have to do with the application and context files.?
Do I just need to edit the values s_dbhome1, s_dbhome2, s_dbhome3 and s_dbhome4 to point to /u02/oradata/PROD and then run adconfig?
Many thanks
Skulls.

I am not cloning, just moving the databaseI know, but Rapid Clone does also help (use the same hostname, domain name, port pool, ..etc except for the directory paths) -- Please note you do not need to use "alter database rename file" as Rapid Clone will take care of that.
so I think manual changing datfile names is needed, followed by edit context file and run autoconfig?This is also valid.
Thanks,
Hussein

Can not create directory error while creating database

i am creating database using dbca in oel but when i try to do so i get an error saying can not create directory pawii

Live upgrade, zones and separate mount points

Hi,
We have a quite large zone environment based on Solaris zones located on VxVM/VxFS. I know this is a doubtful configuration but the choice was made before i got here and now we need to upgrade the environment. Veritas guides says its fine to locate zones on Veritas, but i am not sure Sun would approve.
Anyway, sine all zones are located on a separate volume i want to create a new one for every zonepath, something like:
lucreate -n upgrade -m /:/dev/dsk/c2t1d0s0:ufs -m /zones/zone01:/dev/vx/dsk/zone01/zone01_root02:ufs
This works fine for a while after integration of 6620317 in 121430-23, but when the new environment is to be activated i get errors, see below[1]. If i look at the command executed by lucreate i see that the global root is mounted, but by zoneroot does not seem to have been mounted before the call to zoneadmd[2]. While this might not be a supported configuration, VxVM seems to be supported and i think that there are a few people out there with zonepaths on separate disks. Live upgrade probably has no issues with the files moved from the VxFS filesystem, that parts has been done, but the new filesystems does not seem to get mounted correctly.
Anyone tried something similar or has any idea on how to solve this?
The system is a s10s_u4 with kernel 127111-10 and Live upgrade patches 121430-25, 121428-10.

I updated my manual pages got a reminder of the zonename field for the -m option of lucreate. But i still have no success, if i have the root filesystem for the zone in vfstab it tries to mount it the current root into the alternate BE:

New-Partition assignes driver letter to mount point after reboot.

Trying to create a series of mount points using powershell on Server 2012 R2. When I have used diskpart in the past I could initialize the disk, create a partition, format a volume and assign a mount point without assigning a driver letter to the drive.
When I try to do the same thing in Powershell on Server 2012 R2, everything looks great until I reboot. Every partition I created and assigned as a mount mount gets a driver letter added to it... I am using mount points to avoid drive letters. Is there a way
to prevent this behavior. The following is an example:
Get-Disk 3 | Initialize-Disk -PartitionStyle GPT
Get-Disk 3 | new-Partition -UseMaximumSize -AssignDriveLetter:$False | Format-volume -confirm:$False
Add-Partitionaccesspath -DiskNumber 3 -Partition 2 -AccessPath c:\someFolder
Everything looks good at this point with no driver letter assigned. Rebooting adds a driver letter to the volume with no impact on the mount point... Is there a way to suppress the driver letter assignment?

Figured it out... It appears that this part works fine:
Get-Disk 3 | Initialize-Disk -PartitionStyle GPT
$Part = Get-Disk 3 | new-Partition -UseMaximumSize -AssignDriveLetter:$False
$Part | set-partition -NoDefaultDriveLetter:$True
$Part | Format-volume -confirm:$False
If you look at the output of Get-Partition the NoDefaultDriveLetter value is TRUE. After running Add-PartitionAccessPath it changes to FALSE. You can set it back with the Set-Partition command:
Get-Partition -DiskNumber 3 -Partition 2 | add-PartitionAccessPath c:\SomePath -passthru | set-Partition -NoDefaultDriveLetter:$True
I had a bunch of them to do so I used the following:
Function Config-Disk {
[cmdletbinding()]
Param(
[INT]$Disk,
[INT]$Partition = 2,
[String]$Label,
[String]$MountPoint
Get-Disk $Disk | Initialize-Disk -Partitionstyle GPT
Get-Disk $Disk | New-Partition -UseMaximumSize |
Format-Volume -FileSystem NTFS -NewFileSystemLabel $Label -Confirm:$False
Add-PartitionAccessPath -DiskNumber $Disk -PartitionNumber $Partition -AccessPath $MountPoint -Passthru |
set-Partition -NoDefaultDriveLetter:$True
MD "c:\SomeLocation1"
MD "c:\SomeLocation2"
Config-Disk -Disk 3 -Label "SomeLabel1" -MountPoint "c:\SomeLocation1"
Config-Disk -Disk 4 -Label "SomeLabel2" -MountPoint "c:\SomeLocation2"

R3load cannot export more than 100 mount points for Oracle?

We have a DB with more than 390 sapdata### mount points (HPUX-PARISC). They are truly mount points, NOT directories under some other mount points.
After export using R3load (i.e NO DB-specific ), the keydb.xml generated for import has only from sapdata1 to sapdata100.
Is there any limit here for R3load?
Thanks!

R3load doesn't copy the filesystem structure but unloads the content of the database after having checked the size of it and then distributes it across the files.
Why do you have so many different mountpoints? Is there a technical reason behind? Just curious...

KDE, HAL, cannot open the non-latin mount point

I just installed ArchLinux for a few days and there is a problem here: I use KDE and hal, USB disk and CDROM can be auto-mounted. But if the USB Disk lable or CDROM label is non-latin characters, KDE, actually, Konqueror cannot open that mount point.
I think my charset is correct because in konqueror, the directory name of the mount point is correct. When I try to open this directory, konqueror complained that she cannot open that directory and the directory name which the error message dialog shows is wrong.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

Firewire mount points

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Ii have a difficult question to answer:
I have 2 daisy-chained Firewire LaCie Drives
1. Time Machine
2. for the User directory
The 2. drive is sometimes mounted on "/Volumes/Users" or "/Volumes Users 1" which causes problems accessing the "Users" directory and initiates a fallback to the harddrive.
I do not know why this happens. And I do not know how to prevent it.
Does anyone knows the reason for this behavior (obviously the "User 1" is created because a "User" mount point already exists…)
When the "Time Machine" is switched of the mount point stays the same. But when it is on it changes…
My temporarily solution now is to connect the "Time MAchine" with a FW400 cable. But thats not the desired final solution…
Any solutions available?
Thank you very much.
Kind regards
Dieter Zakel MD MA

Well, I went ahead and created the file fstab in /etc. Using df after a reboot showed that the volume was mounted at the pspecified place. So, the fstab file work. I used the LABEL= construct so as not to have to rely on the order the firewire devices were plugged in.
However, the volumes stall all show up on the desktop. I conclude that the volume list is not generated from the /Volumes directory. So ... still not solved.

Messaging Server and Calendar Server Mount points for SAN

Hi! Jay,
We are planning to configure "JES 05Q4" Messaging and Calendar Servers on 2 v490 Servers running Solaris 9.0, Sun Cluster, Sun Volume Manager and UFS. The Servers will be connected to the SAN (EMC Symmetrix) for storage.
I have the following questions:
1. What are the SAN mount points to be setup for Messaging Server?
I was planning to have the following on SAN:
- /opt/SUNWmsgsr
- /var/opt/SUNWmsgsr
- Sun Cluster (Global Devices)
Are there any other mount points that needs to be on SAN for Messaging to be configured on Sun Cluster?
2. What are the SAN mount points to be setup for Calendar Server?
I was planning to have the following on SAN:
- /opt/SUNWics5
- /var/opt/SUNWics5
- /etc/opt/SUNWics5
3. What are the SAN mount points to be setup for Web Server (v 6.0) for Delegated Admin 1.2?
- /opt/ES60 (Planned location for Web Server)
Delegated Admin will be installed under /opt/ES60/ida12
Directory server will be on its own cluster. Are there any other storage needs to be considered?
Also, Is there a good document that walks through step-by-step on how to install Messaging, Calendar and Web Server on 2 node Sun Cluster.
The installation document doesn't do a good job or atleast I am seeing a lot of gaps.
Thanks

Hi,
There are basically two choices..
a) Have local binaries in cluster nodes (e.g 2 nodes) ... which means there will be two sets of binaries, one on each node in your case.
Then when you configure the software ..you will have to point the data directory to a cluster filesystem which may not be neccasarily global. But this filsystem should be mountable on both nodes.
The advantage of this method is that ... during patching and similar system maintenance activities....the downtime is minimum...
The disadvantage is that you have to maintain two sets of binaries ..i.e patch twice.
The suggested filesystems can be e.g.
/opt for local binaries
/SJE/SUNWmsgr for data (used during configure option)
This will mean installing the binaries twice...
b) Having a single copy of binaries on clustered filesystem....
This was the norm in iMS5.2 era ...and Sun would recommend this...though I have seen type a) also for iMs 5.2
This means there should no configuration files in local fs. Everything related to iPlanet on clustered filesystem.
I have not come accross type b) post SUNONE i.e 6.x .....it seems 6.x has to keep some files on the local filesystem anyway..so b) is either not possible or needs some special configuration
so may be you should try a) ...
The Sequence would be ..
After the cluster framework is ready:
1) Insall the binaries on both side
2 ) Install agent on one side
3) switch the filesytem resource on any node
4) Configure the software with the clustered FS
5) Switch the filesystem resource on the other node and useconfig of first node.

How to create Mount Point in Linux

Hi,
I m new to Linux OS, want to install Oracle EBS R12 on OEL 5.6 . I have downloaded s/w and installed all required packages for OEL.
Now i want to create Staging directory at location /u01/StageR12.
Can anyone guide me for how to create Mount point /u01 and how to assign space of 53 GB to it.... ?
Reply awaited...

You're on the right path.
Keep in mind though what you need partition wise just for o/s install. You should have at least 3 partitions:
- a ?? GB partition for the / (root) mount (the size depends on what you will install and how much space you will need for running that s/w)
- a 128MB or larger partition for the /boot mount
- a ?? GB partition as swap space mount (typically rule of thumb is 2x RAM for 4GB and lower, else around 25% of total RAM)
I would not create separate partitions for the old-style +/u01+ mount points for Oracle. That part of the OFA (Oracle Flexible Architecture) standards are old and pre-ASM and pre- automated Oracle managed data files.
You need space for installing an Oracle Home. I do not see the need for a dedicated mount point for that. I use the root file system.
You need space for the actual database. If you use Oracle ASM, then I would create raw partitions (across disks) to be used for database storage. These will not be mounted or formatted. Instead these will be assigned to an ASM diskgroup (and striped by default) and used for database storage.
If you do not use ASM, then you need a cooked file system for storage of database file. In that case separate mount point(s) make sense. Also, it makes sense not to manually apply the old OFA standards, but instead use Oracle managed database files. In that case you need a single mount point (e.g.<i>/oracledb</i>) - and set that as the base directory for Oracle to use for the database. Oracle will create an OFA compliant database directory tree and files under that base directory/mount point.
Keep in mind that the more mount points you have for the database, the more difficult your job becomes to manage storage. The easiest is a single mount point for the database and using Oracle to manage the OFA compliant side for you on that mount point.
Also, you cannot and should not attempt some kind of manual striping layout of the database across multiple mountpoints. This may have made some sense back 10+ years ago. It no longer does.

Correct me if I am wrong..
Could you please tell me, does we need to set the ORACLE environmental variables i.e. ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_STAGE before start the ORACLE database installation?
Kindly suggest,
Thanks and regards,

Clone A Database Instance on a different mount point.

Hello Gurs,
I need you help as I need to clone a 11.1.0.7 database instance to a NEW mount point on the same host. The host is a HP-UX box and my question is do I need to install oracle database software in this new mount point and then clone ?? or cloning to the NEW MOUNT point itself will create all the necessary software?. Please provide me any documents that will be helpful for the process.
Thanks In Advance.
