Database Initialization Parameters Removal list 9iR2

I have seen Oracle Metalink Document: Database Initialization Parameters and Configuration for Oracle Applications Release 11i Doc ID: Note:216205.1
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:654135795036791041::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,216205.1,1,1,1,helvetica#9iR2
This document has a removal list and states that these parameters should be removed from the database initialization parameters file for 9iR2, while I can see some of the parameters being used which are hash_area_size, sort_area_size and optimizer_mode.
Please clarify.
Thank you
Adith

You would need to set "hash_area_size" and "sort_area_size" if you have 8.1.7.X database. For 9i and 10g you do not need to set them, and this is exactly what is mentioned in the note.
If you check "Release-specific database initialization parameters for 9iR2 (9.2.0.X)", you will find the following:
As of 9i, the automatic memory manager is used. This avoids the need to manually tune sort_area_size and hash_area_size

Recommended database initialization parameters databases for OBIEE

Hi ,
We are implementing OBIEE. We created 11gR1 (11.1.0.7) databases - one for datawarehouse and second for ETL repository. Can anyone please suggest the recommended database initialization parameters for the same. I searched metalink and got for EBS (11i/R12) and not for OBIEE.
Also, if you have any best practices documents for OBIEE, please provide the link.
Thanks in advance for your help

You need to look for OBIA (Apps) not OBIEE:

Small bug: Database configuration - Initialization parameters

Hi!
SQLDeveloper version: 3.2.20.09
View -> DBA -> Database configuration -> Initialization Parameters -> right click "Open" -> editor with "Parameter" and "Value" (inter alia) columns appears
Changing value for parameter "optimizer_features_enable" isn't working:
Example:
Parameter: optimizer_features_enable
Changing value from 11.2.0.1 to 9.2.0 -> commiting changes -> ORA-02017 error appears ("integer value required")
In "Messages - Log" window appears the following statement: ALTER SYSTEM SET optimizer_features_enable=9.2.0 COMMENT='' SCOPE=MEMORY
I think rather it should be: ALTER SYSTEM SET optimizer_features_enable='9.2.0' COMMENT='' SCOPE=MEMORY
It looks like a small bug.

Hi dz_r,
One workaround for this case is, when editing the data in the grid cell, to enclose the Oracle version in single quotes. After committing to apply the update (which works), the grid refresh strips away the single quotes, leaving the desired value displayed in the cell.
So this is, as you say, a small bug. Note that not all parameters of type String require single quotes, e. g., cursor_sharing=exact. Probably any String beginning with a numeric digit should be enclosed in quotes automatically.
I logged the following bug:
Bug 16733790 - UPDATING INITIALIZATION PARAMETER OF TYPE STRING FAILS IF BEGINS WITH A NUMERIC

Question about the Initialization Parameters Information in the Alert.log

Hi, All -
What is the correct answer for the following question.
Specifically, what information does Oracle provide you with in the alert.log regarding initialization parameters?
a. Values of all initialization parameters at startup
b. Values of initialization parameters modified since last startup
c. Values of initialization parameters with non-default values
d. Only values of initialization parameters that cannot be modified dynamically.
I think the answer should be B, but I would like to confirm.

The answer is C
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/process.htm#sthref1633
The alert log is a special trace file. The alert log of a database is a chronological log of messages and errors, and includes the following items:
All internal errors (ORA-600), block corruption errors (ORA-1578), and deadlock errors (ORA-60) that occur
Administrative operations, such as CREATE, ALTER, and DROP statements and STARTUP, SHUTDOWN, and ARCHIVELOG statements
Messages and errors relating to the functions of shared server and dispatcher processes
Errors occurring during the automatic refresh of a materialized view
The values of all initialization parameters that had nondefault values at the time the database and instance start

Oracle 8i database initialization prob

Hi,
I have installed oracle 8i on a windows 2000 machine.
It seemed to install without any problem.
But whenever i try to connect through sql plus or use the database configuration assistant to create a database I get a tns adapter error in the database initialization stage.
in the services panel I find these servicess r running
OracleOraHome811Agent
OracleOraHome811TNSListener
The other two service installed but not running and configured for manual action are:
OracleOraHome811ClientCache
OracleOraHome811DataGatherer
I think there should be a service named OracleOraHome811OracleService or something like that. Can anyone please help me what's the problem ?

Manual services are not required for 8i to work.
When the 'protocol adapter error' shows when trying to connect to sqlplus means you don't have a valid oracle service started, in fact, I don't see any from your service list. It will be created when you first create a database.
Use dbca it will run from the oracle menu at the windows start menu.

Does Database initializer obsolete in EF 6.0 ? And we should use Migration instead of it.

In this tutorial
http://www.asp.net/mvc/overview/older-versions/getting-started-with-aspnet-mvc3/cs/adding-a-new-field
I see such code
public class MovieInitializer : DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges<MovieDBContext> {
protected override void Seed(MovieDBContext context) {
var movies = new List<Movie> {
new Movie { Title = "When Harry Met Sally",
ReleaseDate=DateTime.Parse("1989-1-11"),
Genre="Romantic Comedy",
Rating="R",
Price=7.99M},
new Movie { Title = "Ghostbusters ",
ReleaseDate=DateTime.Parse("1984-3-13"),
Genre="Comedy",
Rating="R",
Price=8.99M},
new Movie { Title = "Ghostbusters 2",
ReleaseDate=DateTime.Parse("1986-2-23"),
Genre="Comedy",
Rating="R",
Price=9.99M},
new Movie { Title = "Rio Bravo",
ReleaseDate=DateTime.Parse("1959-4-15"),
Genre="Western",
Rating="R",
Price=3.99M},
movies.ForEach(d => context.Movies.Add(d));
But when I went to https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/ee712907 I see only migration database
I am newbie at EF. I am focusing on Code First. I have an idea that
DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges
and another DataBase initializer is not acutal for EF 6 but it was used in previous version.
On the other hand from names of this
Database initializer is for database initization
Migration for database structure changing
Before learning I decided ask this question
Does Database initializer obsolete in EF 6.0 ? And I should use Database Migration instead of it ?
My .NET Blog with projects and feedback.
Since May 30, 2014 I am waiting for Microsoft fix
these 2 bug. If you know how to speed them up, please help

Hello,
>>Does Database initializer obsolete in EF 6.0?
I do not know why you think so, if the team decides to make the database initializer obsolete, I think they would make a markup as Deprecated, however, there is not such a markup on that method on MSDN document. And the Database initializer method is useful
when we play with automatic migration. In your case, the DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges database initialization strategy, would delete the original database and create new one according your new model. Of course, data would be missing. If you are under a
scenario need to make a test to recreate the database frequently, this one should be ok.
Currently, there are four database initialization strategies could be used:
CreateDatabaseIfNotExists<TContext> Class
DropCreateDatabaseAlways<TContext>
DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges<TContext>
MigrateDatabaseToLatestVersion<TContext, TMigrationsConfiguration>
You could use one of them for a proper scenario.

Regarding initialization parameters

Hai all,
Can anybody please help me regarding this initialization parameters like
1.what is correct value (how to find)
2. indetail about each parameter
1._optimizer_mjc_enabled
2.max_dump_file_size
3.optimizer_index_caching
4.optimizer_index_cost_adj
5.parallel_execution_message_size
6.parallel_max_servers
7.parallel_threads_per_cpu
8.processes
9.sessions
10.shared_pool_reserved_size

Following link would be the best place to get the details about all initialization parameters.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_2013.htm#i2154767
As regards to the best value, most of them would be your database specific. Start from oracle defaults for hints and go from there.

Minimum initialization parameters that need to be specified

During Database Creation, will specifying these initialization parameters be enough:
db_name= mydb
control_files = ("C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\MYDB\CONTROL01.CTL","C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\MYDB\CONTROL02.CTL","C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\MYDB\CONTROL03.CTL")
db_block_size=8192
undo_management=AUTO
Also, is there an order in which these need to be specified ?

Initialization parameters not getting populated correctly during DBCA

This problem is observed on Oracle 10.2.0.1 Linux x86 and RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 ES Update 5.

Right after DB creation using DBCA, I would expect to see the following initialization paramaters populated in /oracle/u01/app/oracle/admin/ora10g/pfile/init.ora file that match the values I specified in the template file, but it appears that some initialization parameters are either not populated or incorrectly populated.
db_cache_size=1g
(this parameter entry is missing, not getting popultated at all)
sga_target=1600m
(sga_target populated with 1211105280)
pga_aggregate_target=1g
(pga_aggregate_target populated with 403701760)
shared_pool_size=128m
(this parameter entry is missing, not getting popultated at all)
large_pool_size=0
(this parameter entry is missing, not getting popultated at all)
java_pool_size=0
(this parameter entry is missing, not getting popultated at all)
log_buffer=64000000
(this parameter is correctly populated)
transactions=610
(this parameter is correctly populated)
recyclebin=OFF
(this parameter entry is missing, not getting popultated at all)
cursor_sharing=EXACT
(this parameter is correctly populated)
Does anyone know why some initialization parameters did not get populated or incorrectly populated into init.ora?
Thanks in advance.
Ken

Likely dbca currently uses the spfile to store the parameters, as you should do too.
Apart from that the pfile Oracle uses is located in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init<sid>.ora
It is possible this file is soft-linked to the file you mention.
If it isn't the file you mention is not being used at all.

Regarding SQL Database Initialization

Hello All,
I had an existing working version of LiveCycle on Server A which had two drives; A.1 and A.2. Do to space constraints we decided to move the Adobe LiveCycle ES2 folder from drive A.1 to A.2. We had not created anything so we werent worried about loosing any data. When it was installed on to drive A.1 it was runnning on the default MYSQL database that is created when you install using jboss turnkey. . But now we want to connect our jboss application to a SQL server database. I went ahead and walked through the documentation in order create the database and users. I also made the modicications to the XML files within jboss. The problem I am having is when I try to run the LiveCycle ES2 Database Initialization in the Configuration Manager, I get the following error:

Are there other files that I need to configure in order to switch the application from the default MYSQL to the new SQL Database? And is there any way for me to test the connection to the database before I attempt to initialize it.
Thanks in advance.

First and foremost you cannot use the XMLs which are part of turnkey JBoss directly.
You should discard adobe-ds.xml and mysql-ds.xml from <LiveCycle Root>/jboss/server/<server profile>/deploy and get hold of SQL Server specific adobe-ds.xml and mssql-ds.xml and then make necessary modifications w.r.t your SQL Server.
In addition to this you would have to modify login-config.xml as well to add an entry of application policy for MSSQL DB.
If you have performed all these steps and still issues are coming then the error could be because of any of the reasons mentioned below:
The XMLs that you have configured
The connection pools configured
Missing database driver jar
I would recommend the following:
1) Make sure driver jar for SQL Server (most probably sqljdbc.jar) exists in <LiveCycle Root>/jboss/server/<server profile>/lib directory
2) Ensure that you have modified the following XML files correctly:
adobe-ds.xml and mssql-ds.xml inside <LiveCycle Root>/jboss/server/<server profile>/deploy directory
login-config.xml inside <LiveCycle Root>/jboss/server/<server profile>/conf directory
3) Ensure that you have removed mysql-ds.xml from the <LiveCycle Root>/jboss/server/<server profile>/deploy directory
Try opening the XMLs in a browser to verify that they are modified correctly.
You won't find an option to test the connection in LCM.
Though you could try starting up your JBoss without any EARs and see if it is coming up without issues.

LiveCycle ES Database Initialization

Hi Everyone, It's my first time to install and configure LiveCycle ES. I installed Lifecyle but when I'm doing configuration I'm getting an error.

The issue with LiveCycle ES Database Initialization has been resolve and I am able to login to the administration console.
It was an issue with Jboss which was giving some parsing exception. When removed the option ( -Djava.endorsed.dirs=%JBOSS_HOME%/server/all/lib/endorsed ) from the run.bat script, the server started smothly enough to complete the deploy process
Thanks to all and I appreciate the support I got from the forum.

LiveCycle ES Database Initialization Failing with Bootstrapping error

I did non-turnkey installation of LCES on windows XP and deployed the adobe-livecycle-jboss.ear on Jboss-4.0.2 app server. Also created databases called adobe and adobe_meta in MySql and grant all permissions to adobe user.
Then configured datasource as per deployment guide with jndi-name as IDP_DS and put the adobe-ds.xml file in server/all/deploy folder.
When I try to initialize the database using Configuration Manager, the following error occurs:
com.adobe.livecycle.bootstrap.BootstrapException: ALC-TTN-103-000: Bootstrapping request failed on server
ALC-TTN-002-001: JDBC datasource lookup failed for resource reference [java:comp/env/jdbc/
IdpDs]. The most likely cause is that a datasource having a JNDI
name of [IDP_DS] does not exist or is misconfigured. Check the application
server's configuration.
In server console it shows javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: XAConnectionFactory exception.
I am getting LiveCycle Administration Login page but could not loging since database entries have not done yet.
If anybody could help me out of this issue that would be really appreciable.

Need sysdba access to edit initialization parameters

When I log into enterprise manager, go to database, then initialization parameters..
it says 'You are not logged on with sysdba privilege'
my preferences - credentials has sys and password in the sysdba fields..
what needs to be done

What you need to do is logout, and log back in with a user that has sysdba privileges.
After you click on Logout, you will see the options:
- Log out of Database: database_name
- Display database login page after logout
Use this option to reconnect to the database as a different user
Log out of Enterprise Manager and all other targets
(Logged in As YOURUSER)
Select - Log out of Database and Display database login page after logout.
You will then get the option to connect as sysdba. Change Connect as "Normal" to SYSDBA.

Built-in procdure compare (Directories, initialization parameters, roles ..

hello all;
I tried to search about the built-in oracle procedure that compares (Directories, initialization parameters, roles, profiles, tablespaces, users, redo logs) between two different databases but I did find it ..
So if any on knows it please forward it to me as soon as possible.
Thanks all.

Wrong forum. The Database General might be more apropriate. Also you should read this: http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html very carefully. If you would have used google before dumping your question here in the wrong forum you might have gotten solutions as well:
http://www.google.com/search?q=oracle+database+diff
Also Oracle SQL Developer has a built-in Database diff, you might take a look at it.
cheers
