Exp problem in Oracle 10gR2

Hi,
I'm having issues when I try to use exp utility to dump the database as a normal.
Here is the error:
Message 206 not found; No message file for product=RDBMS, facility=EXP: Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on Wed Feb 22 14:54:08 2006
Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Orac
Invalid format of Export utility name
Verify that ORACLE_HOME is properly set
Export terminated unsuccessfully
EXP-00000: Message 0 not found; No message file for product=RDBMS, facility=EXP
The ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID are correctly configured. What I really want is a normal user with oracle user/pass to be able to backup the database instead of root or oracle user (this is on a Linux system).
Thanks,
Nitin

Hi Nitin,
First things first...
Do the following things...
At command prompt
1. echo $ORACLE_HOME (Make sure you are pointing to correct oracle home)
2. echo $ORACLE_SID (Make sure you are exporing correct database).
3. isuue exp help=y (will give you synatx , if you think its wrong syntax)
and also for your info..
There is new tool for export and import in 10g , they are expdp and impdp (They call it as data pump and its faster than exp and imp tools).

Problems Installing Oracle 10GR2 & kernel parameters

Hi there,
I'm trying to install Oracle 10G on a new Solaris10 machine. After extensivley reading the oracle install guide and proceeding my install failed with an out of memory error.
Ive read the posts regarding many similar problems and to set the kernel parameters in /etc/system. My question for the experts is:
1). Is there a problem with the oracle install scripts and it not recognising the new features in Solaris?
2). Is there a more deep-rooted problem with oracle and solaris?
ANY help/advice would be much appreciated. There are hundreds of posts like this on the web and surely someone must have the answer? I mean surely oracle did not hack /etc/system to get their install to work did they??
Nibs

It IS a terrible experince to install oracle 10g on solaris 10. Tell us your system configuration and your installation step. For I have installed three times and each time a different problem. Suggest you go to oracle forum to get more help.

Exp Problem on Oracle 9.2.0.3 to 9.2.0.1

Hi All,
I have 2 database instance. Both were Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1) then I applied a patch to one of the (development) instance to be upgrade to 9.2.0.3. Now I am facing problems on using exp from Development Instance to get an export from Production Instance.

hey bro,
well it happens alot and i faced the same problem while working on 9.2 and 9.0. The problem was with the same error as urs, couldn't exp from 9.2 to 9.0.The solution that i implemented was to connect from 9.0 to 9.2 and then taking the exp of the schema and then imp it back on 9.0 and it worked efficiently. the problem might be the algo or syntax or whatever.
try this for example. u have 9.2(source) and 9.0 (destination). create a tns for source and connect it by using 9.0 sql with the same schema user on 9.2 obviously, then export whatever u want and save. Then conn back with 9.0(dest) schema user and import it. Now it worked for me.
Hopefully the same exercise works for u.
have fun
zaibi.

Oracle 10gR2 Install RHEL4 compat-libstdc++-296 problem

Trying to install Oracle 10gR2 on an Red Hat Enterprise 4 server and having an issue.
[oracle@xxxxxxxx ~]$ uname -a
Linux xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp #1 SMP Mon Sep 25 17:28:02 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[oracle@xxxxxxxx ~]$
The OUI, during Product-Specific Prerequisite Checks reports the following error:
Checking for compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2; found Not found. Failed <<<<
However, the rpm package is installed:
[oracle@xxxxxxxx ~]$ rpm -q compat-libstdc++-296
compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2

The only thing I have been able to find so far is to make sure the package is installed.
There is also another compat-libstdc++ installed:
[oracle@xxxxxxxx ~]$ rpm -q compat-libstdc++-33
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3
[oracle@xxxxxxxx ~]$
is that somehow causing a problem? How does the OUI actuall check for package dependancies?
Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Jeff

Hi Jeff, you will have to install other packages from the RHEL4 cd's. Here is a list of what I usually run. Some are in the oracle install docs and some are not. If you are using the CDs then first cd to the cdrom
cd /media/cdrom
rpm -ivh ncompress-4.2.4-40.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh glibc-common-2.3.4-2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh gcc-3.4.3-9.EL4.i386.rpm --aid
rpm -ivh gcc-c++-3.4.3-9.EL4.i386.rpm --aid
rpm -ivh sysstat-5.0.5-1.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh libaio-0.3.102-1.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm
P.S. I usually copy all the files from the install media to a mounted share on my network and it makes this really easy.

New IP caused a problem to launch DBConsole & listener (Oracle 10gR2)

Guys,
I have installed Oracle 10gR2 on XP system. My dev machine does not have permanent IP address and recently it has been changed.
As a result I can launch Listener and Enterprise Manager - it‘s a problem to start OracleDBConcoledev01 and OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListener.
My sid name is dev01. I found 2 folders where the old IP is involved:
<c:\oracle\ora1020\db01\192.168.188.71_dev01> and
<c:\oracle\ora1020\db01\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_DBConsole_192.168.188.71_dev01>
I saw some articles, but didn’t find exact solution of my problem.
I would appreciate very much any help regarding steps I should go through to make my Oracle working again.
Thanks,
ilia

Problems using and configuring Oracle 10gR2 database full-text search

I am having problems trying to set up full-text indexing and search with Universal Content Management (UCM). I followed the Oracle Content Server Installation Guide for windows at [http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10316_01/cs/cs_doc_10/documentation/integrator/install_cserver_win_10en.pdf].
What I did was:
1. Modify E:\oracle\ucm\server\config\config.cfg by adding SearchIndexerEngineName=DATABASE.FULLTEXT to the end of the file.
2. Restart the content server.
3. Rebuild the search indexing using Repository Manager.
However, I keep seeing the following error when I query by entering words in the "Full-Text Search" box.
Unable to retrieve search results. Unable to retrieve search results. Unable to create result set for query 'SELECT IdcColl1.dID, dDocName, dDocTitle, dDocType, dRevisionID, dSecurityGroup, dDocAuthor, dDocAccount, dRevLabel, dFormat, dOriginalName, dExtension, dWebExtension, dInDate, dOutDate, dCreateDate, dPublishType, dRendition1, dRendition2, VaultFileSize, WebFileSize, URL, dFullTextFormat, dFullTextCharset, DocMeta.*
FROM IdcColl1, DocMeta
WHERE IdcColl1.dID=DocMeta.dID AND (((CONTAINS(dDocFullText,'test') > 0 ))) ORDER BY dInDate Desc'. ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-10599: column is not indexed
Some web searches suggested the following (all of which I have tried but not resolved this problem).
1. Publish the schema using Configuration Manager (applet) and then rebuild index
2. Set the dDocFullText as a "zone field". This is not possible, because dDocFullText does not show up under the list of fields under "Database" or "DatabaseFullText" for the Search Engine drop down (when using Zone Fields Configuration).
3. Reboot the server (did not work either).
I logged onto the Oracle database and checked the IdcColl1 table. There is indeed, no index for the field, dDocFullText. There is only 1 index for the field, did. The field, dDocFullText, is a BLOB. The question is, if I am supposed to create an index manually for this field, how would I do it? A web search has not been fruitful in answering this question.
Here are my server settings.
For UCM:
Operating System: Windows 2003 Enterprise
UCM : 10gR3
Memory: 1 GB
Web Server: Apache 2.2.11
For Oracle:
Operating System: Windows 2003 Enterprise
Oracle: 10gR2
Memory: 1 GB
Thanks.

I found out what the problem was. The problem was that I had to create the role, stellent_role, as described in the installation manual. After I created this role and assigned the database user to this role, a restart of the Content Server services and collection rebuild of the index fixed the problem.
However, I did notice one thing. I checked in 3 PDF files, and when I used Repository Manager to do a collection rebuild, I noticed that for Indexer Counters, the count for Full Text was 0 and the count for Meta Only was 3.
Anyone have any ideas? Is there something else that I missed? From reading the installation manual, it was not clear how database full-text indexing/searching would handle PDF files.

Oracle exp problem

Hi People,
I have two oracle 10g R2 servers say s1, s2
I want to export user with data of s2 while sitting at s1
i.e (i am connected at s1 with a user of s1 and want to export a user of s2).
Any ideas??
Thanks,
Usman

Obviously the correct syntax is something like
exp <user>/<passwd>@<s2_service>
If you are issuing this command on s1, the export will end up on s1.
The generic idea about Oracle is
using the @<tns service name> syntax, you can use your command line tool to connect to ANY database (so the same applies to sqlloader etc), and you don't need database links. Database links were invented to get distributed databases.
Please read up on the concepts involved.
No exp problem is at hand.

**My question is still i am not install Database ..only i ma trying to install crs but in this readme .txt we need to replace the clsfmt.bin file in ORACLE_HOME/bin.**
**but i have not bin directory under in ORACLE_HOME.please clear my doupt to apply this patch...**
Regards,
Mugunth

Also you clusterware installation installs to an ORACLE_HOME.
Oracle does only make a differentiation, if it has to be clear, that you got a clusterware home and a database home.
Normally if a patch is referring to $ORACLE_HOME (and the patch can be used for clusterware & database), it just means the installation directory of the oracle software installed.

XQuery performance in Oracle 10gR2

Hello
I'm actually trying to measure the performances of XQuery FLOWR queries on Oracle 10gR2. For that, I've created a simple table with one integer field (ID) and one XMLType field. This XMLType field contains 10000 documents. The size of these documents varies between 2Kb and 14Kb approximately.
A simple XQuery like below (without "WHERE" or complexe "RETURN" clause) runs quite well and I get the query results in a resonable time.
SELECT xtab.COLUMN_VALUE
FROM contractXDraft, XMLTABLE(
     'declare namespace ctxCD="contractX/contractXDraft";for $x in /ctxCD:contractXDraft
     return
     <response>
          Hello
     </response>'
PASSING OBJECT_VALUE) xtab;
On the other hand, if a add a "WHERE" clause to filter the results, the query execute time become very long (~hours...) and I must always abort the query execution by killing the "oracle" process because the page file memory used by this process increase linearly ! Here below is represented a such query :
SELECT xtab.COLUMN_VALUE
FROM contractXDraft, XMLTABLE(
     'declare namespace ctxCD="contractX/contractXDraft";for $x in /ctxCD:contractXDraft
where $x/ctxCD:ReferenceDetails/ctxCD:ContractHeaderDetails/ctxCD:ContractNumber = "19163-contract657-2.xml"
     return
     <response>
          Hello
     </response>'
PASSING OBJECT_VALUE) xtab;
These above queries are executed on a server dedicated for these tests. This server is a Pentium IV 3.2 GHz with 1GB of RAM and Windows 2003 Server Enterprise SP1 is installed on it.
I want to know if someone can give me an explanation about this huge difference of execution time between the two queries above ?? Is it a syntax mistake ? Is it an hardware problem ?
Thank you very much for your help !!
Regards
MD

MD,
Sounds like your XMLType field is using unstructured storage (i.e., LOB-based) instead of the structured storage (i.e., O-R based). You can check out the XML DB online doc (http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14259/xdb01int.htm#BABECDCF) to learn more about the differences between the two. Essentially, without any associated indexes, using XQuery over unstructured storage will result in a full table scan, which can be very slow when there are large number of rows.

Geoff

XML queries in ORACLE 10gR1 vs ORACLE 10gR2

Hi
in the research project where I'm involved in, we have two databases. One is the test database, upgraded recently in ORACLE 10gR2 and the production database in ORACLE 10gR1.
We have the same table with the same data in both test and production database.
I can run successfully the query and get result in test db ORACLE 10gR2:
SELECT XMLQuery('declare namespace
mpeg7="urn:mpeg:mpeg7:schema:2001";for $i in /mpeg7:Mpeg7
return $i' PASSING xmlcolumn RETURNING CONTENT) FROM
XMLTable WHERE existsNode(xmlcolumn,
'//@id="2005"',
'xmlns="urn:mpeg:mpeg7:schema:2001"') = 1;
but if I try the same query in production db ORACLE 10gR1, I get the error
return $i' PASSING xml_column RETURNING CONTENT) FROM
FEHLER in Zeile 3:
ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis
Is there any difference in the queries syntax between R1 and R2?
What should I change in my query?
Please help. I’m really facing with some problems with XML storage and retrieve.
Any kind of help will be appreciable
Best regards,
Evanela

Hi Evanela,
XQuery is available from 10gR2 and higher - the XQuery functionality
is just not available in 10gR1 ...
Does this help ...?

Oracle 10gR2 Patch Set 3 - Clustering Service (CSS) failed to start

Hi ,
we are using Solaris 10 containers. Oracle 10gR2 installation done with ASM in Non-global zone and it was successful, after applying patch set 3 CSS service unable to start and won't generate any error message.
OS : solaris 10
DB : Oracle 10gR2
any pointer will help us to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Sachin

Hi,
Cause
1) This is a LANG problem. So this can be confirmed by tracing the init.cssd script (executed by the init/inittab), as follow:
h1:3:respawn:/etc/init.d/init.cssd run >/var/log/init-cssd.run 2>&1 </var/log/init-cssd.run
2) /var/log/init-cssd.run log extract:
TZ=
+ export TZ
LANG=
+ export LANG
+ /bin/who -b
+ exit 0
BOOTID= . system boot srp 7 16:44
+ /bin/cat /var/opt/oracle/scls_scr/db4/root/cssrun
RUNID= . system boot Aug 7 16:44
+ [ . system boot srp 7 16:44 != . system boot Aug 7 16:
44 ]
+ [ . system boot Aug 7 16:44 = startstack ]
+ exit 3
STATUS=3
+ [ 3 != 0 ]
+ exit 3
+ [ 3 != 0 ]
+ /bin/sleep 30
Solution
1) Set the LANG environment variable in /etc/init.d/init.cssd script (in GETBOOTID section) to cs_CZ.ISO8859-2:
# Set a null language id. GETBOOTID can also be sensitive to the language
# codes, when init.cssd is run in a user shell compared to being run
# under init. Setting a blank language code should guarantee consistency.
LANG=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
2) Then CSS will start.
$>crsctl check crs
CSS appears healthy
Cannot communicate with CRS
Cannot communicate with EVM

Oracle 10gR2 Automated Storage Management implementation on CentOS 4.1

Actually there are several nice articles on Oracle Technical Network devoted to the same topic. Whats new may be said ?
The target of this message is to highlight the optimal sequence of steps required to bring Oracle10g (10.2.0.1) ASM-database up on CentOS4.1 , placing ASM instance and serviced databases in different Oracle Homes.Oracleasm library install is done immediately after creating "oracle" linux account and "dba" group to be ready for ASM Instance creating during the first Installer run supposed to build it. ASM instance for disks and disks group management is created the first by Installer along with the disks group for database supposed to be built during the second run of Installer and to be placed into recently created disks group.
I. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and ASMLib 2.0 I/O.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/wtfdata
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
OTN instruction:-
Before installing Automatic Storage Management, it is recommended that you install the optional add-on Automatic Storage Management support library, ASMLib. ASMLib is an application program interface (API) Oracle that is aimed at simplifying the interface between the operating system and the database, and to exploit the capabilities and strengths of storage arrays provided by different vendors ASMLib provides an alternative interface for the Automatic Storage Management-enabled kernel to discover and access block devices. It provides storage and operating system vendors the opportunity to supply extended storage-related features. These features provide benefits such as improved performance and greater data integrity.
OTN instruction ends.
3.To install ASMLIB 2.0 run as root:-
# rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.6.9-11.ELsmp-2.0.0-1.i686.rpm \
oracleasmlib-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
oracleasm-support-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm
Now you get /etc/init.d/oracleasm ready to go.
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver:-
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure
Default user to own the driver interface [oracle]: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface [dba]: dba
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Fix permissions of Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: [ OK ]
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm enable
Create ASM disks as desired utilizing command:
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VLM0X /dev/sdx
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login, /etc/profile.
and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
OTN instructions:-
Its recommended that you install Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home, regardless of whether you plan to only have one or multiple database instances.Installing Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home helps ensure higher availability and manageability.With separate Oracle homes, you can upgrade Automatic Storage Management and databases independently, and you can remove database software without impacting the Automatic Storage Management instance. Ensure that the Automatic Storage Management version is the same or later than the Oracle Database version.If an Automatic Storage Management installation does not already exist and you select the Oracle Universal Installer option to install and configure Automatic Storage Management only, then Oracle Universal Installer installs Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home.
OTN instruction ends.
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
Create disk group during this run .
Exit installer.
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed into existing disk's group in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_2 .
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.
Next:-
$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount;
ORACLE instance started.

Open Enterpise Manager console.(Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control URL

Install described above was done with different Oracle Homes
for ASM instance and ASM-database.
To put ASM instance and ASM-database in same Oracle Home.
Start runInstaller just once to build all stuff at a time.
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
Select " Advanced option" and install "Software only"
in ORACLE_HOME - /u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1.
Modify oracle's .bash_profile:-
export ORACLE_HOME and new PATH.
Source new .bash_profile:-
$. ~oracle/.bash_profile
$dbca
During this run the request to start CRS daemons by root will come up.
# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/localconfig add
ASM instance , needed disk's groups and ASM-database itself will be created.
Then perform listener and local TNS names configuration.
$netca
II. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and Standard Linux I/O.
This method creates Oracle database files on raw character devices managed by ASM using standard Linux I/O system calls.It requires to create RAW devices for all disk partitions used by ASM.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/data
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
Just as an example create 4 partitions:
/dev/hda6,/dev/hdc6 5 GB each one
/dev/hda7,/dev/hdc7 3 GB each one
Create raw devices modifying file /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices as follows:
/dev/raw/raw1 /dev/hda6
/dev/raw/raw2 /dev/hdc6
/dev/raw/raw3 /dev/hda7
/dev/raw/raw4 /dev/hdc7
Put in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
chown oracle:dba /dev/raw/raw*
chmod 660 /dev/raw/raw*
I was experiencing problems with loosing "oracle:dba" permissions after Linux
reboot. Oracle's raw device came up with "root:disk" ownership after reboot.
Restart Linux
Run as root:-
# service rawdevices restart
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login,
/etc/profile and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/asm
During this run create diskgroup RAWDATA1 with normal redundancy
mirroring /dev/raw/raw1 and /dev/raw/raw2.
You should be fine with discovering raw devices if permissions are in place (oracle:dba)
Exit installer.
Export ORACLE_HOME for ASM instance and corresponding PATH.
Then run "dbca" to create diskgroup RAWDATA2 with
normal redundancy mirroring /dev/raw/raw3 and /dev/raw/raw4
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed RAWDATA1 diskgroup
in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1.
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.

Actually there are several nice articles on Oracle Technical Network devoted to the same topic. Whats new may be said ?
The target of this message is to highlight the optimal sequence of steps required to bring Oracle10g (10.2.0.1) ASM-database up on CentOS4.1 , placing ASM instance and serviced databases in different Oracle Homes.Oracleasm library install is done immediately after creating "oracle" linux account and "dba" group to be ready for ASM Instance creating during the first Installer run supposed to build it. ASM instance for disks and disks group management is created the first by Installer along with the disks group for database supposed to be built during the second run of Installer and to be placed into recently created disks group.
I. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and ASMLib 2.0 I/O.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/wtfdata
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
OTN instruction:-
Before installing Automatic Storage Management, it is recommended that you install the optional add-on Automatic Storage Management support library, ASMLib. ASMLib is an application program interface (API) Oracle that is aimed at simplifying the interface between the operating system and the database, and to exploit the capabilities and strengths of storage arrays provided by different vendors ASMLib provides an alternative interface for the Automatic Storage Management-enabled kernel to discover and access block devices. It provides storage and operating system vendors the opportunity to supply extended storage-related features. These features provide benefits such as improved performance and greater data integrity.
OTN instruction ends.
3.To install ASMLIB 2.0 run as root:-
# rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.6.9-11.ELsmp-2.0.0-1.i686.rpm \
oracleasmlib-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
oracleasm-support-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm
Now you get /etc/init.d/oracleasm ready to go.
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver:-
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure
Default user to own the driver interface [oracle]: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface [dba]: dba
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Fix permissions of Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: [ OK ]
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm enable
Create ASM disks as desired utilizing command:
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VLM0X /dev/sdx
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login, /etc/profile.
and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
OTN instructions:-
Its recommended that you install Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home, regardless of whether you plan to only have one or multiple database instances.Installing Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home helps ensure higher availability and manageability.With separate Oracle homes, you can upgrade Automatic Storage Management and databases independently, and you can remove database software without impacting the Automatic Storage Management instance. Ensure that the Automatic Storage Management version is the same or later than the Oracle Database version.If an Automatic Storage Management installation does not already exist and you select the Oracle Universal Installer option to install and configure Automatic Storage Management only, then Oracle Universal Installer installs Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home.
OTN instruction ends.
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
Create disk group during this run .
Exit installer.
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed into existing disk's group in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_2 .
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.
Next:-
$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount;
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 285212672 bytes
Fixed Size 1218968 bytes
Variable Size 88082024 bytes
Database Buffers 188743680 bytes
Redo Buffers 7168000 bytes
Database mounted.
SQL> alter database archivelog;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database MastDB flashback on;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database open;
Database altered.
Open Enterpise Manager console.(Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control URL
http://ServerCentOS41:1158/em). Create new disk's group for flashback recovery area and modify corresponding value on Recovery Settings page of EM.
System startup in this case should look like:-

Oracle 10gr2 rac, ora-12545 error when configured in shared server mode

Hi i have fresh installation on two node rac on linux, with oracle 10gr2. It is running successfully, when i configure it in shared server mode and try to connect from client it gives error ora_12545:
I have referred the oracle metalink notes and configured the local_listener as well as the remote_listener,
still it is giving the error. I am able to tnsping all the entries on tnsnames.ora,
i m also able to ping the hostnames,
It connects most of the times succeessfully but some times it gives the error.
how to solve this problem,
please help me

Basically this error means you misspelled the hostname or typed a wrong IP Address.
Oracle Error :: TNS-12545+
Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
Cause
The address specified is not valid, or the program being connected to does not exist.
Action
Ensure the ADDRESS parameters have been entered correctly; the most likely incorrect parameter is the node name. Ensure that the executable for the server exists (perhaps "oracle" is missing.) If the protocol is TCP/IP, edit the TNSNAMES.ORA file to change the host name to a numeric IP address and try again.
I suggest you to check the dispatcher instance parameter.
