Database Upgrade from Oracle 9i to Oracle 11g

Hi Experts,
We are running our Applications on 9i database but our Client has come out with suggestions of upgrading the Database to Oracle 11g.
Bellow is information about our platform:
JBoss 4.2.3, JDK 1.6
TIBCO Administrator- 5.4, TIBCO Designer-5.5, TIBCO TRA-5. 5, TIBCO EMS-4. 4
Oracle 9i -- Basically Using Tables, Views, Sequence, Functions & Stored Procedures.
Can anyone provide us some information for upgrade to Oracle 11g R2 and impact on work?
Any suggestions that could be given will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Anup

Hi,
What is your current 9i version (last 3 digits) and what is your OS?
To upgrade to 11gR2 from 9i, the 9i version must be minimum 9.2.0.8

Steps to change universe database connection from SQL server to Oracle 10

Hi,
we are moving from sql server to Oracle 10.Please let me know the steps and various parameters I should consider while changing universe database connection from SQL server to Oracle 10.
Following are the steps which I assumed :
1.     create a new Oracle database connection or edit the existing connection to point to Oracle server
2.     Need to check sql for each object, having integrity check for universe will solve the purpose of parsing each object
3.     Exporting the universe after integrity check
4.     Report data testing
Let me know if I miss on any steps.Also what all factors I need to consider while moving to Oracle for eg: what @ custom sql,what @ table names,what @ LOV etc.
Kindly reply

Thanks Abhijeet and Shreyash,
I will follow the steps you have suggested.
Actually I was searching for this on net and got to know that with Oracle database connection,theres lot of stuff needs to take care of in terms of custom sql and LOV and in our case,we have lot of custom sql for each object in the universe so just wanted to confirm.
I will do the changes and let you guys know in case theres any isuue specifically to Oracle.

Database upgradation from 10.2.0.3 to 11 R2

Hi
I am planning to upgrade my production database from 10.2.0.3 to 11.2. Before doing into production am testing it into our Test server in Linux OS. I got manual procedure of database upgradation from metalink. I installed Oracle 11g as software only into my test server. Now in step 2 , they describe as under
$ sqlplus '/ as sysdba'
SQL> spool upgrade_info.log
SQL> @utlu112i.sql
SQL> spool off
SQL>
My query is : I will run the script utlu112i.sql from which home ? Oracle 10g ? oracle 11g?
Please give me your wise suggestion.
Regards
Rabi

Hi Rabi,
First of all go to location (Oracle 11g) $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin and
copy the utlu112i.sql script to /tmp directory.
Now login to 10g database “/ as sysdba” and startup the 10g database, then:
SQL> spool /tmp/upgrade_info.log
SQL> @/tmp/utlu112i.sql
SQL> spool off
Hope this will help you.

Database upgrade from 10.2.0.3.0 to 11.1.0.7

Hi All,
OS:linux 86x64 Red Hat linux
We would like to perform Database upgrade from 10.2.0.3.0 to 11.1.0.7.
I do have quick questions regarding the upgrade.
1. When we upgrade the Database to version 11, do we need to update the client also? What is Oracle recommendation?
2. Do we need to take any DB backup before the upgrade?
3. How will the OBIEE windows box ODBC connect to the upgraded 11 g instance? Will the version 10 driver work to connect to version 11 databases?
4. We have Informatica,DAC in the existing instance. Will the DB upgrade have any impact on them?
Could anyone please share their experience/thoughts on the above like the steps to perform the upgrade.
Thanks for your time!

I do have quick questions regarding the upgrade.
1. When we upgrade the Database to version 11, do we need to update the client also? What is Oracle recommendation?Just 11g upgrade will include all cient/Server tools on you Linux Box. On client side its recommended to upgrade client version 11.1.0.7.
Please refer MOS tech note:
*Oracle 10g Client Connecting To Oracle 11g Database Gets ORA-01017 invalid username/password [ID 888432.1]*
2. Do we need to take any DB backup before the upgrade?Yes, perform full cold backup of Database as well as 10G $ORACLE_HOME binaries including inventories.
3. How will the OBIEE windows box ODBC connect to the upgraded 11 g instance? Will the version 10 driver work to connect to version 11 databases?AFAIK, it should work. What is the version of OBIEE?
4. We have Informatica,DAC in the existing instance. Will the DB upgrade have any impact on them?Again AFAIK, there should not be any effect. I would recommend you to log a S.R and verify the same from support.

Testing while doing the database upgrade from 9.2.0.6 to 11.2.0.2 apps ?

Dear Experts,
Please note that we are in process of doing database upgrade from 9.2.0.6 to 11.2.0.2 ?
We have gone through the interoperablity note id for 11i 11gr2 ?
Step 1
upgrading the database from 9.2.0.6 to 9.2.0.8 ?
Step 2-
Upgrading the Forms patchset to 19 ?
Step-3
Applying the Rollup-6 patch ?
Step -4
Upgrading the database from 9.2.0.8 to 11.2.0.2 ?
We would like to know whether after each step do we have to do any kind of testing on the Oracle Application Instance and the database?
Please advise.
Regards
Mohammed.

We would like to know whether after each step do we have to do any kind of testing on the Oracle Application Instance and the database?There is no such a list. However, you can refer to the documents referenced in each task above and it should cover if any testing need to be done or not (for example, the Developer Patchset doc). For the rest of the docs you will have to do your regular testing (test the application/database and make sure it is working properly).
Also, make sure you review (Known issues on Top of 11i.ATG_PF.H. delta.6 (RUP6) - 5903765 [ID 459353.1]).
ATG RUP 7 is the latest 11i.ATG_PF patch.

Recommendations
Oracle recommends gathering dictionary statistics prior to
upgrading the database.
To gather dictionary statistics execute the following commands
while connected as SYSDBA:
EXECUTE dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats('CTXSYS',options=>'GATHER'
,estimate_percent=>DBMS_STATS.AUTO_SAMPLE_SIZE
,method_opt=>'FOR ALL COLUMNS SIZE AUTO'
,cascade=>TRUE);
EXECUTE dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats('DBSNMP',options=>'GATHER'

EXECUTE dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats('SYSTEM',options=>'GATHER'
,estimate_percent=>DBMS_STATS.AUTO_SAMPLE_SIZE
,method_opt=>'FOR ALL COLUMNS SIZE AUTO'
,cascade=>TRUE);
Oracle recommends removing all hidden parameters prior to upgrading.
To view existing hidden parameters execute the following command
while connected AS SYSDBA:
SELECT name,description from SYS.V$PARAMETER WHERE name
LIKE '\_%' ESCAPE '\'
Changes will need to be made in the init.ora or spfile.
Oracle recommends reviewing any defined events prior to upgrading.

.... minimum required size for database upgrade: 500 MB
From above output script
1)SYSTEM tablespace is adequate for the upgrade.
.... minimum required size: 8546 MB
From system tablespace minimum required size means free space from system tablespace or total size of system tablespace?
i am going to use dbua utility for upgrade means does it alter tablespace as per output of scripts or we need to manually alter tablespace size as per requirement?
2)WARNING: --> Database contains schemas with objects dependent on DBMS_LDAP package.
.... Refer to the 11g Upgrade Guide for instructions to configure Network ACLs.
.... USER APPS has dependent objects.
what is above warning and how can i configure ACL's for APPS User?

Oracle database upgrade from express edition to standard edition

We purchased Oracle database 11g to upgrade our current primavera oracle database express edition (10g).When we are trying to upgrade through DBUA it getting error message
Please provide us a proper advise to solve this issue.

As noted by orafad, the easiest approach would be to perform a full export from 10gR2, install 11gR2 into a new ORACLE_HOME, create an empty 11gR2 database, then perform a full import into 11gR2. As also noted, you will have to follow any special directions related to Primavera.

Forms HOST command no longer works after database upgrade from 10g to 11g

Hi,
After upgrading the database 10g to 11g the forms HOST command no longer works on Unix server. The form used to work fine prior the upgrade. I read all the threads I could find and did not see any solutions. Adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not work because it does not even run a basic shell script. (I saw this solution, adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, in many questions / threads).
1. I wouldn't expect the database upgrade to be an issue, but it is the only change we had.
2. Note, 11g is Oracle Fusion Middleware which is quite a bit different than 10g.
I even tried the most basic commands like "echo" which is a build-in Unix command and there is no directory for it (ie. no /usr/bin - so variable PATH is irrelvent). i.e HOST('echo hi'); and HOST('echo "hi" '); and even HOST ('echo hi > /my_file.txt'); all returns FORMS_FAILURE (actually the if is IF FORM_SUCCESS THEN ... else ... and the else part always runs now - whereas it didn't before.).
Or basic commands like /usr/bin/ls as in HOST(/usr/bin/ls). At that point I was just testing the Unix command would return FORM_SUCCESS even though I could not see the results (because they weren't writing to a log file). Notice that I'm using the direct path /usr/bin so no Unix environment variables were needed.
The form does use webutil but that part works. For example, we have webutil_file_transfer( ....) The file shows up on the application server and in the expected directory.
Here's the main goal. Upload a file from clients local PC to the datebase server. The form uploads the file to the Application server, then we have a Unix script to scp (secure copy) the file from the application server to the database server. IF webutil, or any other Oracle functions could put the file on the database server that would be better. But, I don't know of any procedures that do that - or would have done it cleanly (i.e. storing to database and write back to server and then using a blob etc. )
Anyway, I was hoping someone would help with either of these.
1) Get the HOST command to work. - If we can get that to work then I wouldn't need any more help. We can just call the already existing Unix script to copy the file from the application server to the database.
2) OR be able to upload directly to the database server - wanted to do that originally
Any help would be appreciated

Solution for those interested and for anyone else searching this forum for a solution
I found this on My Oracle Support:
<h3>Host Command from Forms Not Working in 11g in Sun Solaris Sparc OS [ID 1157346.1]</h3>
Applies To: Oracle Forms - Version 11.1.1.1.0 and later
Sun SPARC Sun OS
Symptoms:
When trying to execute a Shell script or any OS command using the host() Built-in from Forms 11g, the host()command is not getting executed. The same functionality works on other operating systems and in previous versions like 10gR2.
Steps to be followed:
1) Take a backup and edit the $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/servers/WLS_FORMS/applications/formsapp_11.1.1/config/default.env or any custom environment file.
2) Locate the following environment variable:
LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) Comment out this variable. After the changes, it will look like the following:
#LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) a) Instead of LD_PRELOAD, kindly use LD_PRELOAD_64 as given below :
LD_PRELOAD_64=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
(This makes HOST AND RUN_REPORT_OBJECT work fine).
4) Save the file and execute your forms. The Host() built-in will work as expected
The LD_PRELOAD setting in default.env is only required for the working of signal chaining facility in JVM version 1.5 and later. If you are not using theSignal chaining facility, this variable is not required. For more information, refer to the following documentation

Siebel Database migration from IBM DB2 to Oracle

Hi ,
We are planning to migrate Siebel / OBIEE db form the existing DB2 to Oracle db. Can some please help us, what are the points we need to consider.
Also please let us know if you find any hurdles during the same.
Regards
Muni

Hello Kumar
Typically for Packaged Apps you don't have to migrate database objects like stored procedures, triggers, views etc as the app will have its own database specific seed schema. What needs to be migrated/ported is the customizations done to the app in the source environment and the transaction data to the target and ofcourse a thorough testing is recommended.
So the migration process typically is :
1. Install Siebel for Oracle (schema and data access layer).
2. Implement customizations in Oracle.
3. Migrate transaction data from source DB to Oracle.
4. Test.
Oracle has a group that can help with this process. Let me know and I will put you in touch with them.

Database Upgrade from 10.2.0.3.0 to 10.2.0.4.0 for a EBS 12 database

Hi,
Is there any specific procedure like interoperability for upgrading an R12 database from 10.2.0.3.0 to 10.2.0.4.0.
Currently I have plans to upgrade database from 10.2.0.3.0 to 10.2.0.4.0 and then
upgrade apps from 12.0.4 to 12.0.6. Also I need to install Arabic language on the instance.
What would be the best sequence to do this ?
Ram

hi,
you can use the oracle 10.2.0.4 patchset(downloadable from metalink) to upgrade your database to this version,
just follow the OUI in the patch set and select the migrating oracle home ...
before migrating it will ask you to stop all the oracle services , once it migrated then you need to use DBUA (DATABASE upgrade assistant ) to upgrade its components ..
then you can check all the component versions vis

R12.1 upgrade from 11.5.10CU2 with 11g

Hi hsawwan,
I have some doubts about R12.1 upgrade process.
1. If i have 11.5.10.2 with 9.2.0.8 as database then can i upgrade to R12.1 using RapidWiz and during database upgrade screen, directly upgrade from 9.2.0.8 to 11.1.0.6 or 11.1.0.7 database?
2. If i have 11.5.10.2 with 11.1.0.7 as database then can i upgrade to R12.1 using RapidWiz or i have to do patchinf for it. Means to say that can i use RapidWiz for R12.1 upgrade from 11.5.10.2 with 11.1.0.7?
3. What will be the best practice to reduce downtimwe for R12.1 upgrade ?
Regards,
Manas Prakash Gupta

Hi hsawwan,
As pre-upgrade patching for 11.5.10.2 to R12.1 upgrade, i applied a patch 4582937 which is for PRE CONVERGENCE MIGRATION PATCH. There are some steps which are need to be performed after applying this patch. Below are the steps.
1) Perform the data mapping for org and warehouse migration through the UI available in OPM System Administration.
2) Run $GMA_TOP/patch/115/sql/GMAORGMG.sql as APPS user.
3) Review any errors generated in the Org Migration for the context "ORGANIZATION" and rerun GMAORGMG.sql after fixing the errors.
4) Run $GMA_TOP/patch/115/sql/GMAITSTP.sql as APPS user.
5) Review any errors generated in the Org Migration for the context "PRE_ITEM_MIG_SETUP" and rerun GMAITSTP.sql after fixing the errors.
6) Run $GMI_TOP/patch/115/sql/gmiitmin.sql as APPS user 7) Review any errors generated in the Org Migration for the context "ITEMS" and rerun gmiitmin.sql after fixing the errors.
I am not able to understand the first point (Perform the data mapping for org and warehouse migration through the UI available in OPM System Administration).
I logged into application and under OPM System Administration i didn't find anything related to mapping. Can you just tell me how to perform these steps (Specially the first one because in others we need to run scripts only).
Thanx,

Oracle Database upgrade from 10g R2 to 11g R2

Dear Oracle Experts,
Currently we I have three database on Oracle 10g(10.2.0.5) in same oracle home and want to upgrade only one database out of three.
Can you please advise if I can upgrade only one database instance(out of three database, same oracle home) and my two other database will run on 10g ? and can you please share steps also for the same
Best Regards
Farookh

Hi,
As Harry pointed out already, it's definitely possible and a good idea actually. By installing a new Oracle home you can easily revert back to the 10g one if you need to. It keeps everything separate and makes it cleaner.
I would recommend reading the Oracle docs. DK2010 has written them down here:
upgrade the database version 10.2.0.1.0
I made some notes on how to upgrade your database from 10g to 11g over on my site, they are the exact steps I used. It might help you to have a read through them but you should definitely read the Oracle docs and make sure everything you need for your environment is covered before upgrading. [url http://www.ora00600.com/wordpress/articles/oracle-10g-to-11g-upgrade-guide/]Here are my notes.
Hope that helps,
Rob
