Dblink between different version of oracle databases

Hi Oracle Database Gurus
Is it possible to create a database link between 10.x and 11.x oracle database.
Could somebody pinpoint a passage of oracle documentation connected with that topic.
Regards
Zibi

OK thanks, but is there a documentation where we can find some constraints ???
ZibiRemember that there is nothing "magic" or special about dblinks. When using the link, the database in which the link is defined (source) is just another client to the target of the link. It uses all of the same tns pieces, and the constraints between versions would be the same as for any other client / database connection. So all you need to reference are the standard docs on what client versions are compatible with what db versions. Nothing special for the dblink.

  • Differences between different versions of Oracle Database 10 g

    I have some questions about the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 that we download from Oracle web site.
    1)Does the software that we download from Oracle web site is similar to Enterprise Edition or Standard Edition or Standard Edition One or to which edition? In other words, similar to which edition?
    2)What are the differences between Enterprise, Standard, and Standard Edition one?
    3)Are they any features included in the licensing Oracle Database that does not include in the free one that we download from Oracle web site?

    The dowloaded software contains every of the four editions. You choose which edition you want during the installation process.
    The differences and extra-cost options are described in this paper on OTN

  • Which version of Oracle database is best for Windows 7 Home Premium?

    Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium? Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?

    EssbaseApprentice wrote:
    Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium?That's easy to answer, none . No oracle database version was released for Home(Premimum) series. There are several blog posts/articles which do mention that they have installed oracle releases over Home(Premium) platforms but whether it would work or not, it would be just a lottery and help regarding troubleshooting would not be there.
    Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?You mean 10g Express Edition and 10g Enterprise, Standard Editions? If yes, then there is indeed difference. The Express edition is more like a developer's playground with a good looking GUI even there to administer it. EE or SE are the production releases , meant for being used in a very busy, highly concurrent environments. There would be additional features like RAC and Dataguard that would come with EE and wont be there in the XE. So if you are learning to become a production DBA, you should right away use EE or SE IMO .

  • RMAN can backup/restore diferent versions of Oracle DataBases regardless OS

    Hi,
    I am evaluating Recovery Manager to backup and restore Oracle databases.
    I have to backup/restore diferents versions of Oracle database, these databases are running in diferents operating systems (AIX, LINUX, Windows)
    For example:
    Oracle DataBase 9 in AIX 5.3 system
    Oracle DataBase 10 in Lunix system
    Oracle DataBase 9 in Windows system
    I want to have a single RMAN server in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
    A single RMAN server can backup/restore diferent versions of Oracle DataBases regardless the operating system?
    If the answer is yes, do I need to have an specif operting system in my RMAN server? (AIX, Linux, Windows, etc.)
    Thanks for your help;

    Hi,
    Your question:
    I want to have a single RMAN server in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
    Sounds more like a machine.
    If you would have asked:
    I want to have a single RMAN recovery catalog in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
    I would have confirmed as like the other two.
    Be aware the catalog version needs to be equal or higher as the highest database version.

  • Latest version of Oracle database

    Pl tell me the latest version of Oracle.

    Then i let you explain to tens of thousands of Siebel
    customers why Oracle uses Actuate :-)[snip]
    You're more like competing with IBM , SAP and
    Microsoft on these markets[ps:  I'm not 'Oracle'.  Don't even work for them.  So it ain't "You're" ... <g>]
    You totally miss the point. My apology for being obtuse. Let's try this again, a bit more straight forward.
    This is a database forum. Specifically an Oracle core tech database forum.
    It is not a BI forum. It is not an Actuate forum.
    It is a database forum.
    Maybe it's just me, but when a person asks "what is the Latest version of Oracle database", I would expect an answer related to the database version. Not an Oracle competitor or third party product.
    Seems to me people interested in Actuate would normally go to places where Actuate users participate. And people who want to troll or discuss the virtues of Actuate would go to an appropriate BI forum elsewhere in the Oracle Forums.
    Again, apologies for not being clear in the original response.

  • Free version of oracle database.

    Hi everbody,
    Can anybody tell if there is a free version of Oracle database which can be used for training purpose.
    This software is required for the hands on purpose for the associates.
    Moreover, it would be kind enough of you to suggest that which is the most suitable version for installing on CentOS 6.3 64 bit ?
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    What is the purpose/content of the training ? For self-learning purposes, all of the database versions available at Oracle Downloads | Software | Oracle are "free". Currently, no Oracle database software is certified/supported on CentOS, although folks have managed to install it on this OS, with the assumption that they will have to troubleshoot any issues on their own. Again, for self-learning purposes, Oracle Linux is freely available at https://linux.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=101:3

  • Is there any incompatibility in using different JDBC and Oracle database versions?

    Hi everybody,
    I hope you can answer me ASAP.
    Which version of JDBC driver for Oracle could I use to access an Oracle database version 8.0.4.3.0 running on a SUN machine?
    Is it necessary to use the specific driver concerning to that version or could we use the JDBC version 8.1.6?
    If we decide to use JDBC 8.1.6 to work against the 8.0.4.3.0 database, will we find any incompatibility or problem?
    Thanks.
    null

    I don't know the answer to your question, but while looking for something else, I found a table listing "requirements and compatibilities for oracle jdbc drivers" that might answer your question:

  • Importing from higher to lower version of oracle database

    I have taken user backup from Oracle 9i database.
    Now I want to import that user into Oracle 8i database.
    Is there any method to do this?

    Always use a version of the EXPORT utility that is equal to the lowest version of either the source or the target database.

  • Issues with different versions of Oracle.DataAccess.dll

    I have a .net web service application which references version 10.2.0.100 of Oracle.DataAccess.dll. A client has setup Oracle 10g database on the server, but I think the server has a patch set installed so it appears that the versions of Oracle.DataAccess.dll in my web service and on the database server do not match. When I issue a query via the web service on my local machine using my oracle 10g client, the web method returns the correct data. If I issue the same query using the same .net web service on the clients database server, I get the following error: Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException: ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected. There's nothing wrong with the query syntax, I can run the same query from SQL Plus on the database server and get the correct data. Could it be a compatibility issue between the Oracle.DataAccess.dll referenced in my web service application and the file on the sever. I'm not sure what else to look for, any advice is greatly appreciate, and I can answer any questions if needed.
    Thanks,
    NA

    I would not expect an ORA-923 if your the Oracle client was not installed properly. I would expect an exception or a crash.
    You can run an ODP.NET trace to find out what query is getting the ORA-923 by doing the following:
    1) Shutdown web server on the machine that runs the webservice (middle tier),
    2) In windows registry, on the machine that runs the webservice (middle tier), change registry value \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\ODP.NET\4.112.1.1\TraceLevel to 1
    3) Reproduce the ORA-923 only
    4) shutdown webserver
    5) Undo the registry value (set it back to 0)
    6) In the generated file (c:\odpnet2.0.trc) do a search for "923", hopefully you can find it. Just before that error, you should see the SQL that was executed. This will obviously not be what you expect and will hopefully point you to the cause of the problem.

  • Which version of Oracle database is certified on  Windows 2008 R2 ( 64-bit)

    We have a Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 (64-bit) server.
    I wanted to know which Oracle database version is 100% certified on the above OS.

    Hi Sirini;
    10.2.0.5 is supported - see MOS Doc 1061272.1 (Statement of Direction: Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Client (10.2.0.5) with Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2)Correct;
    11gR2 is also supported - see MOS Doc 867040.1 (Statement of Direction: Oracle Database 11g Release 2 – Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2)There is a setup on this link:
    Oracle Database 11g Release 2
    (11.2.0.1.0)
    Microsoft Windows (x64) File 1, File 2 (2GB) See All
    I am little bit confused for this, as you mention note and also certification matrix says 11gr2 certfied with Win2008-64 bit. But there is no specific setup like win2008-64 bit, there is only Microsoft Windows (x64) setup
    By the way for 10gR2 on win 2008 64 bit platform there are 2 setups. Those are:
    Oracle Database 10g Release 2
    Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) for Microsoft Windows Vista x64 and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 x64
    Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64)
    So i had issue for my client and oracle worker support me to use 10.2.0.4 for my issue, not second setup. So for 11gR2 could be work for Microsoft Windows (x64) but i am not sure %100 coz never tried before.
    i appreciate, If someone share their experience to make installation 11gR2 on win2008-64 bit wiht Microsoft Windows (x64) setup
    All those upper setups can be found at:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
    I do not believe 11gR1 is currently certified with Win 2008 R2.Please check below link:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
    Oracle Database 11g Release 1 Standard Edition, Standard Edition One, and Enterprise Edition
    (11.1.0.7.0)

  • Usage of different versions of Oracle Server?

    Is there any studies about percentage of usage of different Oracle Server versions available on the net?

    In summary, is it possible to have different versions of NW Java running on the same machine? If so, what is the best practice and process for installing the new NW instance?
    Yes, it is possible. You need to make sure that the hardware has sufficient resources (CPU, RAM, Disk space, etc) to accommodate a new instance, the system numbers and SID's are unique and the OS and DB are supported for the new system.
