Data Guard with Oracle 9i and 10g -- have you done it?

We have an ERP system (JDEdwards, db size approx 600 GB) and we'd like to copy the data in this system to a database on another computer. We'd use the remote database for reporting, so we need it to be available. We are looking at using Data Guard running in Logical Standby mode.
The ERP database is Oracle 9i, and we are considering having the Logical Standby database be 10g. Have you done this and if so, what was your experience?
Here's why we want to do this. There are many tables in the ERP database that contain descending indexes. We can't change this, and it is not supported with Data Guard under Oracle 9.2. Tables with descending indexes do not copy to the logical standby database.
We were told that this is corrected in a newer release of Oracle, and we were wondering if a 10g database would properly copy tables with descending indexes.
Thanks in advance for any experiences you can share.
Best Regards,
Mike

What you are trying to do might not be possible. Because when you create logical standby you have to create a physical standby first and convert it. Primary and standby have to be same version.
In furture it might be possible because 10G will support rolling upgrade of logical standby.
However even it's possible you have to go through a lot of pain to setup and maintain it because Oracle don't support the setup.
What you could try are Stream and Replication, I will say Stream is very interesting one. Because Oracle say : "Oracle Streams and Oracle Data Guard (including Data Guard SQL Apply) are independent features based on some common underlying infrastructure and technology. "

  • Data Replication between Oracle 9i and 10g

    Hello,
    I have a question regarding possible Replication Models between Oracle 9i and 10g. Does anybody know a possible way to syncronize the schema data between a 9i and 10g database in realtime?
    If yes can you please post perhaps a link with a kind of how to?
    Many thanks to all,
    Bob...

    You can read this metalink note 370850.1 - there are bit more ways of replication discussed.
    Yes, platforms can be different, but recomendation is to use the same platform for both databases.

  • Steps for Data Guard with one primary and 2 standby

    Hi,
    Database :10.2.0.4, 11.2.0.1
    Os: Windows , Unix
    A ----------------> Primary database
    B ----------------> Standby Database 1
    C ----------------> Standby Database 2
    I want to configure *2 standby* databases for single primary database.
    Lets take, A ,B and C are my machines.My data guard configuration will be like,*archive logs will be moving* from A to B and A to C.
    If i do any switchover in between A and B , now B is primary and remaining A and C are standby databases.At this stage also , archive logs should move from B to A and B to C. Also, same should happen from C to A and C to B,If i do switchover in between B and C.If everything is fine , then i will do switchback to main Primary database(A).
    How do i have to mention PFILE in all machines ,the parameters like
    LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1=LOCATION=<PATH> -- LOCAL ARCHIVE PATH
    LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2=SERVICE=
    LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_3=SERVICE=
    FAL_SERVER=
    FAL_CLIENT=
    STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT=
    In my tnsnames.ora , primary,standby1 and standby2 are my service entries and these are same in all of my machines.
    Please suggest me , how do i can configure my pfiles in all machines ?.

  • Issue with .profile for oracle 9i and 10g

    Here I have six oracle 9i databases on one box. I am going to upgrade five of them to oracle 10g and want to keep one database RCAT in oracle 9i for one or two week.
    So, when I do upgrade I have to setup oracle home for 10g and also profile for oracle user for 10g (correct me if I m wrong). But now I want one database RCAT on oracle 9i. How can I take care of this.
    I mean how I will handle profile and all other thing for oracle 9i and 10g at the same time.
    Thanks,
    Vishal

    Install 10g under the same OS user as 9i, of course on a different Oracle Home. Then you configure your .profile consequently. Just as an example, this is my .bash_profile with 10g and 11g with the same oracle OS user :
    [oracle@linux5 ~]$ cat .bash_profile
    # .bash_profile
    # Get the aliases and functions
    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
            . ~/.bashrc
    fi

  • Data Guard on Oracle 9i

    Good day,
    I'm trying to configure standby database using Data Guard on Oracle 9i, primary database on windows xp and stand by database on W2K server, and I'm on step three of the Create Configuration Wizard. I'm trying to create a new physical standby database and when I click next then it waits a few moments then get a window that pops up and says "Data Guard remote process startup failed"
    I suspect it is something to do with "Preffered Credential" settings.
    Can some one guide me how to go for this, or any suggestion about the above mentioned error message.
    Thanx in advance
    Regards Anshuman

  • Data guard vs. oracle stream

    Our db is 10g 2 nodes RAC db and the db server is window 2003 server. Our standby db was using data guard for feeding data from primary to standby. Since our standby db was not up to date now we are planning to rebuild our standby db. We are debating if we should use data guard or oracle stream to feed data to this new standby db. Can any body give us some insights on which one is better on this purpose?
    Thanks a lot in advance!!
    Shirley

    One has
    1 physical standby
    2 logical standby
    3 streams
    Only 1 is a zero-loss, high-availability solution.
    2 and 3 do not support all data types, and will automatically suppress not-supported datatypes.
    3 apart from that is also asynchronous, where 1 and 2 can be set up to be synchronous.
    3 will be also much more difficult to troubleshoot. Basically: when you are out-of-sync you have to rebuild. You can't re-ship redolog files.
    1+2 ship redolog files to the standby server, 1 uses them to recover the database, 2 uses them to mine them and to re-execute the transaction.
    3 mines redolog files at the source, and sends statements to re-execute them.
    Only 1 is a true HA solution.
    You can not use Streams to build a standby database.
    The purpose of Streams is replication, not standby.

  • Steps to UTF-8 Encoding with Oracle 8i and Weblogic 6.1SP1

    What are the Steps to UTF-8 Encoding with Oracle 8i and Weblogic
              6.1SP1?
              I have:
              - Oracle 8.1.5 database created with character set=UTF8 and national
              character set=UTF8
              - Weblogic 6.1SP1 without any encoding mechanism set
              (though I did play with
              <jsp-param><param-name>encoding</param-name>
              <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>
              </jsp-param>
              in the weblogic.xml for a while though it seemed not to make a
              difference)
              - JSP pages set to content='text/html; charset=UTF-8'
              - JSP form POSTs set to enctype="UTF-8"
              I can copy and paste Chinese Kanji from a UTF8 encoded web page into
              form text boxes but when I post the data it comes back as different
              Kanji. Then once it is posted the Kanji stays the same on repeated
              posts. The same Kanji text also looks different when viewed in a form
              text box than when viewed as straight text on the page.
              Is there anything else? Or am I already encoding characters twice?

  • Query using Materalized view in oracle 9i and 10g

    Hello
    There are snapshots (materialized view) used in my application. We have recently migrated from 9i to 10g release 2 database.
    After migration i have observed explain plan of query which is using materialized view and i found in 9i oracle treating materalized view as table. In 10g oracle is considerting it as MVIEW only (MAT_VIEW ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID). However in 10g cost of query which is using materialized view is much higher than 9i. And execution time is also random.
    Can anbody pls. expalin diff. of materalized view access in oracle 9i and 10g.
    Thanks

    can you post your query with explain plan for both 9i version and 10g version.

  • Oracle 9i and 10g in one computer

    Could I install oracle 10g in computer where 9i is instaled. I want that both oracle is instal and test oracle 9i and 10g. Could I run oracle database 9i and 10g together and I use both of the database?
    Thanks for answer.
    Rafal Dmitrowski

    I would also suggest caution if you have a Windows server. While it is certainly possible to have both running, there are some issues with separate 9i and 10g homes on a Windows machine, things like the Oracle Home Selector doesn't work with 10g Oracle Homes. I wouldn't be overly concerned if you are dealing with development laptops, but I would make sure to do some testing before installing 10g on a production server with 9i already installed.

    It should be this way:
    Ebiz:
    1. Integrate OAM with OASSO
    2. Register OASSO and OID with Ebiz11.5.10.2
    3. Protect the resource in OAM
    4. Verify if authentication is successful for this resource.
    Obiee:
    1. Integrate OBIEE with OAM
    2. Verify if authentication is successful for this resource.
    IWA:
    1. Install IIS webser and webgate
    2. Create authentication scheme which protects / of IIS web server.
    Create a Form Authentication Scheme(this scheme should protect OBIEE and EBiz resource) which will have challenge redirect to IIS web server where IWA is configured and / is protected.
    Login Flow:
    1. User tries to access ebiz or obiee resource.
    2. Form Authentication Scheme will challenge redirect to IIS web server where IWA is configured.
    3. As IWA is configured. User will be automatically get ObSSOCookie.
    4. User gets redirected back to the requested resource.
