DB and EBS cloning methods in exadata server

Hi
We are planning to migrate exadata server (Linux 5.3 OS) . My DB will be 11gR2 and EBS 12.1.2
My infrastructire will be like
1st Exadata server will hold PRD DB and application will be on sun linux server
2nd Exadat server will hold DR (only database) and DEV/UAT/TST instance (database) for these instance application will be on sun linux server.
this all sturecture will be with RAC and ASM.
As on DR server we are planning to have TST/DEV/UAT database and we use RMAN for DB backup. I would like to know the cloning (DB and EBS) methods (standards and customs) for existing environments. We want to clone my instance on daily basis from my runing DR site.
Kindly suggest some action plan.
Thanks
Krishna

EBS database migrate to exadata server.

Hi Experts,
My EBS database is 11.2.0.3. I'm going to migrate EBS database to exadata server. Please advise what patches need to be applied on exadata server for EBS database migration?
Thanks & Regards,

Hello Angela,
I think what you're looking for is in My Oracle Support document ID 1392527.1 "Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i & R12 Patches Required with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0) on Exadata". It has a detailed list of patch requirements for different combinations of EBS and database versions.

Do we have any method to list out the servers that are critical and the component/monitor causing the server to turn into critical state in SCOM 2012

Hello Team,
We are monitoring 1000 servers in our environment and out of 1000 servers, we have approximately 100 servers showing as critical state on the server state view.
We can get the critical servers list from SCOM console, but we are not able to get the information about the component responsible for the server to be critical. Using Health explorer to find the root cause for 100 servers is really impossible and time consuming.
Do we have any method to list out the servers that are critical and the component/monitor causing the server to turn into critical state?
Advance thanks for your help.

Dinesh

Hi,
As far as I know alerts with severity as criticla may cause windows computer in a critical state, we can try below code to find all critical alerts：
get-alert -criteria 'ResolutionState=0 AND Severity=2' | select Name,ResolutionState,TimeRaised | export-csv c:\Alerts.txt
Criteria Syntax http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb437603.aspx
Values to use.
Resolution State
Severity Values for Alerts
0 = New
0 = INFORMATIONAL
255 = Closed
1 = WARNING
2 = CRITICAL
Hope this helps.

Cloning the Oracle Database Server which has Grid 11.2.03 and DB 11.2.0.3

Hi DBA's,
Did anybody came across cloning a database servers? If i have the OFA for Grid and DB homes i.e /u01/app/oracle so after clone it will be the same across all servers. So the inventory structure will be same also. After cloning changing the listener.ora files to point to new IP/Hostname can bring up the listener. What else? Did anybody tried this things and what all issues have come or what all issues could come.
Thanks,
Bhushan Altekar

Ok. I got the cloned VM . I did the same steps as we use for normal grid and db cloning. Below are the steps i did.
1) change the ip address
2) reboot
3) after reboot wait for few minutes till the ASM comes up automatically
4) as root run the below command
/u01/app/oracle/product/11203/grid/crs/install/roothas.pl -deconfig –force
5) Change the hostname with system-config-network-tui - Edit DNS Configuration and change the hostname here
6) Edit the /etc/hosts file and enter the ip address and the hostname
7)Reboot
8) After the reboot as root run the command
/u01/app/oracle/product/11203/grid/root.sh
================================
#output of step 8
[root@cat ~]# /u01/app/oracle/product/11203/grid/root.sh

Successfully configured Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Serveror a Standalone Server
===============================
9) stop the HAS service
crsctl stop has
10) Add the listener
srvctl add listener
11) Add the asm instance as new cloned grid don’t know about it. So we have to add it and see its added or not.
12) srvctl add asm -d '/dev/oracleasm/disks/*' # Note here if you specify wrong diskstring. Your Oracle restart stack wont come up automatically after reboot. so please specify it correctly.
13) crsctl status res # check all the resources are added or not
14) edit the listener.ora file and change the hostname ( HOST = XXXX part of the file)
15) crsctl enable has
Congrats we have successfully cloned the database server itself.
Please check the steps i did. And add if you think it should be added and taken care of.
Thanks,
Bhushan Altekar

Extprocs and the new Exadata server

Our product, Symyx Direct, is a data cartridge. It implements a domain index by means of callouts to an external procedure library.
Customers pose queries such as:
SELECT MOLID FROM MOLECULES WHERE SSS(CTAB,’c=c-c=c@1’)=1;
The table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE MOLECULES (MOLID VARCHAR2(12) PRIMARY KEY, CTAB BLOB);
CREATE INDEX MOLIX ON MOLECULE(CTAB) INDEXTYPE IS C$MDLICHEM60.MXIXMDL;
The indextype MXIXMDL has operators associated with it, including SSS.
The definition of SSS involves extensible index calls to a .DLL (windows) or .SO (unix) that implements the search by calling Oracle OCI routines.
Since external procedures are called by the Oracle optimizer and run as a subprocess of the Oracle shadow task (unix) or thread in oracle.exe(windows) that is running the user’s Oracle session, how would this interact with the new Oracle Exadata Server? Would our cartridge product have to run in each low-level database cell inside the exadata server, or will this run at a higher level?

Anders,
That does not sound to hard ---
I will look into that.
Thanks!

Help needed in EBS cloning.

Hi,
Today i am doing cloning from TARGET A to TARGET B. in both locations DB name and ebs instance name is same only the difference is hostname. i am using DB hot backup and followed below method to clone and DB tier clone went fine. While cloning apps-tier every stage is getting completed successfully. but the problem is it is connecting to source database and updating the url. Seems some thing funny. i verified all the inputs while cloning apps-tier and are correct as per the target machine. i verified the .xml file before and after cloning, JDBC url is not getting updated with new value.
==========================
$grep -i qaebsdb qaebiz_drqaebs.xml
<jdbc_url oa_var="s_apps_jdbc_connect_descriptor">jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=YES)(FAILOVER=YES)(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<source_db_hostname>)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=qaebiz)))</jdbc_url>
$
==========================
Due to this, it is connecting to source DB and updating all the profiles etc. Can any body help me to resolve this problem?
Regards
DBA.

The exact situation happened to me whilst cloning my PRODUCTION to our DR system. Followed all the procedures as stipulated (twice) however the source url got corrupted and pointed to the DR. The only connection to the source I found was the connection string "s_apps_jdbc_connect_descriptor" which pointed to the source instance.
Re-running autocfg on the source appsTier fixed the connection issues and I believe executing FND_CLONE_CLEAN and rerunning Autocfg on both DB and appsTier on the source will clean up the FND_NODE tbl and make the source 100% o.k. again.
My only issue here is "WHY WAS THE s_apps_jdbc_connect_descriptor URL WRONG? i.e. holding the source information. Remember adcfgclone creates the xml file and execute same time. Should I have stopped the SOURCE instance before cloning?
Is there a DOC ID (metalink) I can follow next time?

Webcenter and ebs R12 integration

Hi,
We are having trouble with integration of WebCenter 11g PS3 with Oracle E-Business suite R12.1 in some of our ebs environments.
The step to set up E-Business suite portlet connection >WebCenter > Settings > Service Configuration > Portlet Producers > WRSP Producer failed with errors like :
Failed imports exist for producer /oracle/adf/portlet/E-Business Suite WSRP Producer_383c5156-9596-4eeb-a005-8b218dc41c33 which is currently not registered in this application.
A request to the producer URL "http://<host>:<port>/OA_HTML/portlets/WSRPServiceDescriptionService" resulted in a status 500 response with fault string "Internal Server Error (Caught exception while handling request: oracle.webdb.wsrp.server.ContainerRuntimeException: An internal error has occurred in method ConsumerRegistration.<init>())". The fault code given was "{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server".
The attempt to register the producer with ID '{1}' for connection '/oracle/adf/portlet/E-Business Suite WSRP Producer_10ce66f7-704f-4512-be60-f297896a6eee' failed.
Also, tried with WLS command - same errors
wls:/ecm_domain/serverConfig> registerWSRPProducer('webcenter', 'E-Business Suite WSRP Producer', 'http://<host>:<port>/OA_HTML/portlets/WSRPBaseService?WSDL', timeout=100, server='WC_Spaces')
It basically timeout. If timeout increases, it takes longer to hit the same error.
This error is only occurring with setting connection to ebs running 2 apps nodes and on RAC database on 2 db servers. Anyone has integrated with ebs with RAC db and multiple apps servers successfully ? If so, what version of Webcenter and ebs ? I've logged an SR and has not progressed much in the last week or two.
I am not sure if this is the right forum, pls let me know if there are any other appropriate forum for this.
Thanks in adv,
Mary

Newbie question - cloning to a new server

Hi all,
I am very new to the EBS world, so please forgive the "newbie" question. We are running 12.0.4, and we have approximately 12 different environments. We probably do 3 to 4 clones a week, generally from production to one of the existing environments.
However, we now have a couple brand new Linux servers, and we want to set them up as a new environment to clone to (one will be apps server, one will be DB server). I am looking at some of the Metalink documents on how to do this. But my basic question is this - do I first have to do a basic EBS installation onto these servers, before I will be able to clone an environment over to them?
Thanks!!

EBS Instance migration to Exadata Servers

Hi Experts,
Kindly note that we are in process of doing the ebs instance migration from OEL 6.4 64-bit OS to Exadata Server. And the proposed target os on the exadata server is OEL6.4.
a. need to convert the non asm ebs db to asm on the target.
b. migrate the instance to Exadata.
Please suggest me the approach and notes.
Regards
Mohammed.Abdul Muqeet

Migrating an Oracle E-Business Suite Database to Oracle Exadata Database Machine (Doc ID 1133355.1)
As you are having Source database on linux (64-bit) and wanted to have your target database on Exadata (also linux 64-bit) then either you can use RMAN,rconfig or dbca to migrate the database.
A. Using RMAN you can duplicate the database from non-ASm to ASM on Exadata
B. Using dbca, you can create the database template and then can create the database on exadata ASM
C. Similarly rconfig can also be used.
RMAN is widely used to migrate the database to Exadata when source database is also on Linux 64-bit.

PS Script to find the list of users and the groups in a Workgroup server

Hi There, could you please explain on how to get a complete list of local users and local groups in a "Workgroup" server to which they belong to using Powershell. I'm able to get the users list but couldn't find any help in finding
the script to find to which localgroup the user belong to. Anticipating your response. Also let me know the cmdlet for Win2k3 servers to find the same.

Here's some code from David Pham (don't remember wher I fund this code):
Trap {"Error: $_"; Break;}
Function EnumLocalGroup($LocalGroup)
$Group = [ADSI]"WinNT://$strComputer/$LocalGroup,group"
"Group: $LocalGroup"
# Invoke the Members method and convert to an array of member objects.
$Members= @($Group.psbase.Invoke("Members"))
ForEach ($Member In $Members)
$Name = $Member.GetType().InvokeMember("Name", 'GetProperty', $Null, $Member, $Null)
$Name
# Specify the computer.
$strComputer = gc env:computername
"Computer: $strComputer"
$computer = [adsi]"WinNT://$strComputer"
$objCount = ($computer.psbase.children | measure-object).count
$i=0
foreach($adsiObj in $computer.psbase.children)
switch -regex($adsiObj.psbase.SchemaClassName)
"group"
{ $group = $adsiObj.name
EnumLocalGroup $group }
} #end switch
$i++

How to Deploy 11g Forms and EBS Applications?

Dear All,
Just need to know some technical information regarding EBS.
Previously I have worked with Oracle forms and reports 6i and we used to deploy the application developed in this tool to publish using Application Server 9i/10g. I also have hands on experience on that.
Now after 4 years I am again trying to do some hands-on on later versions.
Just want to know that for Developer Suite 10g, If i developer the application it will be published using Application Server 10g? so that the user can access this application?
How EBS application is host and published?
Will really appreciate your kind help.
Thanks, Imran

Ical "authentication failed. your username and password were rejected by the server"

i've a pretty busy server, fully configured with correct DNS.
running 10.6.8, uptodate. i've stopped the ical service, and removed it from the server settings.
then i created a folder on my RAID /volumes/raid/ical, set its ownership to _calendar:_calendar (uid 93), rwx,rx,-
then added the iCal service back, and set the data store to this new folder.
authentication is set to digest (to reduce potential kerberos errors), with SSL on.
i then started the service
an existing user CANNOT connect to the caldav server. i get the error: ical "authentication failed. your username and password were rejected by the server".
if i create a NEW user, that user can correctly connect to the Caldav server. On first joining, an entry is created in the __uids__ folder and the calender works.
SO. WHAT IS GOING ON?
this is 10.6, so i do not have an option in WGM to 'enable calendering'. i've used the inspector to check for differences, but i can't see any.
help. please. and no comments about DNS. the fact i can get a new user to function means that is excluded. no comments about SSL. ditto. no comments about kerberos, its turned off. thanks.

I often think of things in terms of time it takes to figure out the solution to the problem vs time it takes to nuke and pave.
Dare I ask... How many users would you have to remake?
150 users would probably take 2 hours to recreate?
...Have you spent 2 hours on this problem yet? How about 4 or 6?
Perhaps you could have typed up 450 remade users so far!
I have a great idea as to how to change ownership of home folders to users after they're created.
Thoughts on the problem... (but don't spend too much time on it!)
What about crypt vs open directory password?
In WGM, select the user, click the advanced tab, and ensure that your users have OD based passwords?
...sometimes that pull-down menu displays OD, but it's not really. Try selecting OD, retype the password there, and save.
See if it works.
What about in server admin.... Select the server in question, click the access button at the top.
Ensure that your services are allowed for all users to use the iCal service.
In the iCal service in Server Admin...
Host name setting? It's a stretch as new users seem to work. Ensure it's correct?
For the sake of argument... Change authentication type to Any Method... If you're running OD on the server, Kerberos is running. I know that certain services require it even though you have the option. Perhaps iCal is being finiky without it?
I apologize if you've tried all these, but as a user forum, you'll typically get users that don't believe that you've tried the basics. It's honestly the best place to start. Seeing as we don't know what you've done, it's the best advice you'll get.

Imaging solution for EBS: Best practice guide for server setup

Hi,
We have to implement Imaging solution for EBS using AXF adapter. For this, customer is going to procure and implement SOA and WebCenter Content from scratch.
We are now faced with the challenge whether to recommend SOA and WCC on the same Weblogic server or on separate Weblogic servers. Is there any best practice guide available for setting up Application Adapters for WCC?

Hi,
If you can't see the login screen of the CMC then it's a problem of webapps and not EIM services.
Try cleaning the Tomcat cache for the BOE webapps and let Tomcat re cache it. Often it does the job.
- Stop Tomcat
- Rename the BOE folder to BOE-OLD in C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\tomcat\work\Catalina\localhost\
- Start Tomcat
When the Tomcat process in task manager is done working (it can take 10-20 min+) then try again.
When you're done, you can delete the BOE-OLD folder.
Let me know!
