Database 12C upgrade

Hi all ,
We are in RAC in Windows 2008 R2 in 64 bit machine. Our  grid and database version is 11.2.0.3. My question is that If i upgrade my grid infrasturcture to 12.1,0 then will all my rac instances be PDB database under one CDB  automatically? 11.2.0.3 does not have any CDB or PDB. Lets say there are instance A & B. If i upgrade to 12 , then will i administer the same way i did it in 11.2 ? Please explain. Thanks.

Upgrading a pre-12c database to 12c will not change the architecture - that is, the upgraded database will remain a non-CDB. You will have to plug the upgraded database into a separate CDB after the upgrade is completed
Upgrade Oracle 11.2.0.3 to 12c

  • How to find out the date when an oracle database is upgraded

    Hi,
    I would like to know the date when an oracle database is upgraded (for example 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.3).
    Can you help me to find out these details.
    Thanks,

    Hi Ed and SB,
    Thanks for your replies. How about this option?
    Let us assume I am interested in checking when my database is upgraded to any 11g version.
    Will this query help?
    select min(first_usage_date)  from  dba_feature_usage_statistics where  version like '11%';
    I understand this may not be a generic solution , but with this idea I may be able to build up a query to get the result.
    Thanks,

    How is it that you or nobody knows when the DB was upgraded?
    I would have expected a formal testing & upgrade plan.
    Does the organization practice safe software & utilize any source code repository?
    Does everyone suffer from amnesia?
    How could a MAJOR database upgrade slip by everyone who should care about such a detail?

  • How to set JDBC Data Sources in Oracle MapViewer for Oracle database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1)

    How to set JDBC Data Sources in Oracle MapViewer for Oracle database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1)?
    The following is my configuration in the conf\mapViewerConfig.xml:
    <map_data_source name="mvdemo12"
    jdbc_host="127.0.0.1"
    jdbc_sid="orcl12c1"
    jdbc_port="1522"
    jdbc_user="mvdemo"
    jdbc_password="7OVl2rJ+hOYxG5T3vKJQb+hW4NPgy9EN"
    jdbc_mode="thin"
    number_of_mappers="3"
    allow_jdbc_theme_based_foi="true"
    editable="true"/>
    <!--  ****  -->
    But it does not work.
    After use "sqlplus mvdemo/[email protected]:1522/pdborcl", it connected to the Oracle database 12c.
    Does anyone know it?
    Thanks,

    For 11.1.1.7.1 use the syntax for jdbc_sid, i.e.
    //mypdb1.foo.com as described in the README,
    - MapViewer native (non-container) data sources can now use database service name in place of SID. To supply a db service name, you will use the same jdbc_sid attribute, but specify the service name with double slashes in front, such as follows:
      <map_data_source name="myds"
        jdbc_host="foo.com"
        jdbc_sid="//mypdb1.foo.com"
        jdbc_port="1522"
      />
    For 11.1.1.7.0 use a container_ds instead.
    i.e. instead of using
    <map_data_source name="my_12c_test"
                       jdbc_host="mydbinstance"
                       jdbc_sid="pdborcl12c"
                       jdbc_port="1522"
                       jdbc_user="mytestuser"
                       jdbc_password="m2E7T48U3LfRjKwR0YFETQcjNb4gCMLG8/X0KWjO00Q="
                       jdbc_mode="thin"
                       number_of_mappers="6"
                       allow_jdbc_theme_based_foi="false"
                       editable="false"
       />
    use
      <map_data_source name="my_12c_test"
                       container_ds="jdbc/db12c"
                       number_of_mappers="6"
                       allow_jdbc_theme_based_foi="false"
                       editable="false"
       />
    In my case the Glassfish 3.1.2.2 JDBC connection pool definition was
    Property
    url  jdbc:oracle:thin:@mydbinstance:1522/pdborcl12c.rest_of.service.name
    Uncheck the Wrap JDBC Objects option in Advanced panel, i.e. the Edit JDBC Connection Pool Advanced properties page.
    Add a JDBC resource for that newly created pool
    Use that in mapviewerconfig.xml as above

  • Can i use "Oracle Database 12c: Performance Management and Tuning " training for getting certification on "Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning 1Z0-054"

    i have taken "Oracle Database 12c: Performance Management and Tuning new" training from oracle university. Now i would like to get certified on "Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning 1Z0-054" exam. Is it possible ?

    I essentially endorse and refer you to Matthews' and John's post above.
    I would differ with slightly with Matthew because my guess is you would often be able to use like for like 12c training for an 11g certification ( I believe there are precedents).  BEFORE ANYONE ASKS THE OTHER WAY DOESN'T HAPPEN.
    .... but totally concur with Matthew you would ill advised to procede on that basis without one of:
    - This being advertised as possible on the website : e.g. https://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=654&get_params=p_id:169 ... option 2 show courses.
    - Confirmation from Brandye
    - Confirmation from an Oracle Certification Support Web Ticket ( http://education.oracle.com/pls/eval-eddap-dcd/OU_SUPPORT_OCP.home?p_source=OCP )
    ... The more common (and in my opinion usually better) way would be get your 11g DBA OCP ( or higher first) and then take the 1z0-054.  I am almost certain they will accept your 12c course for the 11g DBA OCP.
    If you are choosing the route of not being a 11g (or 12c ) DBA OCP first but are on option 2 and relying on the course for certification then the issue is more in the balance and you are even more strongly advised to get confirmation before proceding (remember if the rules need to be changed for you only then any profit out of the exam is lost).
    In general my understanding is Oracle would prefer to encourage people to train on the latest version of product that is available for training  and will prefer to avoid restrictions which would cause you to train at a lower version.  ( This is simply my guess at Oracle University Policy ... personal opinion only).
    Having said all I have said I'd encourage you to go with the advice of the earlier two posts.

  • Does  Analytic Workspace Manager 11.2.0.3.0A  work with oracle database 12c?

    hello,
    i would like to know if AWM 11.2.0.3.0A works against with oracle database 12c in pdb mode or not .
    regards
    jm

    I have attempted to connect 11g versions of AWM to 12c and get this error:
    'This version of Analytic Workspace Manager is incompatible with the database instance. The Analytic Workspace Manager version is 11.2.0.3.0 and the database compatible version is 12.1.0.0.0'
    So unfortunately it is not compatible, and there is currently no AWM for 12c
    I also contacted Oracle support and they wont give me any information about a release date or any information on the xml template specification for 12c.
    I guess we will just have to wait till they release a version of AWM that supports 12c...

  • SQL Server CE 3.5 SP2 - SQLCE Toolbox / Automated Database Schema Upgrade Scripting / Drop Index

    I am provisioning for automated database schema upgrades in a Windows Forms Application (VS2010/VB) which uses SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP2.  A portion of the schema upgrade procedure uses TSQL commands passed to SQLCE like the following:
    cmd.CommandText = "DROP INDEX [SaleComps$ProjID]"
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
    However, when this command is processed by the SQLCE engine, I get the following error:
    Command: DROP INDEX [SaleComps].[ProjID]
    Error: The specified index does not exist. [ ProjID ]
    But, if I try to recreate the index (or try to change the index column) I get the following errors which indicate that the index is still there:
    Command: ALTER TABLE [SaleComps] ALTER COLUMN [ProjID] nvarchar(20) NULL
    Error: Cannot alter a column that is part of a key or an index. [ Index Name = SaleComps$ProjID,Column = ProjID ]
    Command: CREATE INDEX "SaleComps$ProjID" ON "SaleComps" ("ProjID" ASC)
    Error: The specified index already exists. [ SaleComps$ProjID ]
    Any ideas why this would not be working? Thanks!
    -BGood

    No, I was guessing at the syntax from reviewing other web postings, some of which were in different SQL dialects. 
    While your SQLCE Toolbox did not provide the DROP INDEX command, it did provide most of the "Schema Diff" scripting commands.  In hindsight, maybe SQLCE Toolbox should recognize when schema differences involve a Column which is used in an index, and
    DROP the index before executing the ALTER COLUMN command, then re-CREATE the index with the modified column.
    Despite this shortcoming, I am very thankful for the help provided by SQLCE Toolbox, and learned a little more about SQL scripting in the process.
    Thanks, ErikEJ!

  • ENterprise Manager 12c Upgrade Console appears to change permissions on '/'

    This is a very strange occurrence and I am wondering if anyone else has encountered it. I have installed and upgraded my 11g OEM installation to OEM 12c Cloud Control. I am using the Enterprise Manager 12c Upgrade Console to deploy and configure the 12c agents. Twice now, because of different problems the deploy/configure step failed the first time. After resolving the issue and rerunning the deploy/configure step it failed because permissions on the '/' directory ahd been changed from root root to oracle dba. It leads me to believe that the deploy/configure process is making those changes (although I can't see why) and when it fails does not clean up after itself and that cleanup must be done manually.
    Has anyone encountered this issue and if so, other than being aware of it is there a solution?
    Thank you.
    Bill Wagman

    To update the thread, i had a webex session with Bill on Friday and he saw this permission change on two agents (11g) where he hadn’t run roots.sh and the agent upgrade failed with nmo error. After running the root.sh on 11g agent, retrying the agent upgarde job. Later the upgrade job failed ( doesn’t remember which step) can’t access the / as its owned by root and then figured out the / is owned by root.
    Since this happened only on 2 agents and not with others , we are suspecting if / was owned by root before the upgrade operation itself. Bill will do some more agent upgrades to see if he gets the same issue and will also check if the / dir on that agent host was owned by dba before starting the upgrade?
    I will wait to hear back from you Bill, you can drop me an email if you see the same behavior and then we can meet again.

  • Is ODI  12c  is certified on  Oracle Database 12c ?

    Hi Experts,
           I am trying to install ODI 12c on Oracle database 12c.  Where the ODI initial installation is good.  But when I am trying to setup the master and work repositories on database 12c it is failing.  The scripts generated by the RCU is working on 12c.  I think it mainly about schema creation and roles that it it trying to create on the database.
    Did anyone of you have gone through this issue, can throw some light.  Thanks in Advance.

    Yes, ODI 12c is certified for Oracle database 12c.
    Check database tab here : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/fusion-middleware/documentation/fmw-1212certmatrix-1970069.xls
    Whats the exact error that you are seeing while setting up the repositories. You can try creating Master & work repositories through ODI Studio as well.

  • 12c Upgrade patch requirement for the preupgrade console

    Instructions for the preupgrade console patch, "Apply the preupgrade console patch on your existing Enterprise Manager system to get access to the Enterprise Manager 12c Upgrade Console" specify that PSU3 (9282397) or later must be applied. What qualifies as "or later". Running opatch lsinventory shows patches of lower numbers only.
    Thanks!
    Randy Kennedy

    Hi Randy,
    "PSU3 (9282397) or later" in this case means PSU3 or a newer EM 10.2.0.5 PSU (Patch Set Update); for example, PSU4 (9786002) or PSU5 (10168579).

  • How to find out whether Oracle database was upgraded ??

    Hi,
    I need to find out whether my Oracle database was upgraded, If yes how to find out by SQL query .I know their is database_properties table, but when I try to query that it didnt gave me the output which I required.
    Like in SAP we have uvers table which keep info about the upgrade history, whether such history is avaliable in oracle ?? . Iam looking out for output which is like old database Release 9.2.0.7 and new database release 10.2.0.2.
    Whether similar such history is maintained in Oracle database.
    Awaiting for your feedback.
    Kind Regards
    Neenad

    Hi all,
    After checking all the material,I dont think prior to 10g, oracle register its earlier version.
    The views of v$version show the current version for various components and also dba_registry displays info about catlog/catproc versions.
    In 10g, you can use the following query to know the version when the database was broughtup.
    select startup_time,version,db_name from dba_hist_database_instance.
    Anways thanks to all of you.
    Kind Regards

  • Is Biztalk server 2013 will support Oracle database 12c?

    Hi,
    Can anyone suggest me whether Biztalk 2013 will support Oracle 12c?

    1) Someone had suggested that the recent webcast with Larry Ellison would be about Database 12c, but that didn't make sense because the other presenter in the webcast was the head of SPARC.
    2) Amazon is taking orders for a book called Pro Oracle Database 12c Administration that is supposed to be published on April 17th.
    3) Apress Books has two titles announced for mid-May.
    I would assume that those books cannot be published before the product is released, so those dates might provide some indication.

    In the context of Oracle best practices, what would be a preferred approach for the database tier to meet the above aspiration, i.e. (a) Upgrade database on source and then migrate to Exadata OR (b) Migrate database to Exadata and then upgrade ?
    Appreciate thoughts from community members/Oracle support.
    Thanks,

    EBS does not need to be "certified" on Exadata.  See:
    Running E-Business Suite on Exadata V2
    https://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan/entry/e-business_suite_exadata_v2
