Grid using Standard Edition

can we build a Grid Architecture using Oracle Standard Edition..
as Oracle Streams and Transportable Tablespaces, being the backbone of any grid architecture, belongs to enterprise edition of Oracle 10g,,,,
if someone can tell that is there any possibility tht can we make Grid using Oracle 10g Standard Edition??
Regards
Muhammad Umar Liaquat

hi APC,
plz reply me , my questions r below:
what i cud understand is that we can implement Grid using SE, only and only if we use RAC (with 4 CPUs per RAC ofcourse). am i right?
say if we use RACs as a part of a Grid, how we can transport data without Transportable Tablespaces,,and how can we capture n send n apply 'messages' without using Oracle Streams?

Is "RAC" Free if you use "Standard Edition" and not the "Enterprise Edition" Databases?

Hello to All you wonderful Oracle Guru's....Greetings...
I was told to do some research on this, it's quite simple, but it's a question of getting management to buy in the idea of going with Clusters and moving off the nice and secure single instances..
Is RAC FREE if you use "Standard Edition" instead of "Enterprise Edition"...
Does anyone know?
I am going to do a Proof of Concept RAC install for management\devs\ect and others to review....
Any Clues???
Thanks,

Have a check of this: http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/pricing/price-lists/index.html
Oracles licensing is predominantly per seat (user) or per CPU. So taking per CPU, you would need to figure out what you need - say you want to license the DB on RAC, you will need a license for Oracle Database Standard Edition (either per user or per CPU) - so only bound per user or per CPU on which the database(s) are running. If you have 2 x servers in a cluster, you will have 2 x installations of Oracle DB, each running on n processor(s)
If you can quantify the number of users (if say an internal application) you can go per seat (say 50 users) but there will always be a minimal user license.
Alternatively you're looking at per CPU. Generally you're speaking of the backend to a system that serves a large volume of users, so rather than license 1000 users, you'll just license the core.
If you take a look at the above, you'll see that Oracle determines processor charges around the number of processors and cores (so some cores might be charged at 0.25 of a processor price). Here's a link to how you can cost processors (some processors with 4 cores will still only be charged as 1 x processor, as Oracle will rate each core at 0.25 of a processor) when calculating price.

Hi,
maybe an old one but i can't find the answer. does the

Monitoring Standard Edition Databases

Hello,
We are currently an all 9i on Solaris shop that is beginning to work on upgrading to 10g and moving to linux 64 bit where possible. As a part of cutting costs, we are moving several production databases from Enterprise Edition to Standard Edition and likely dropping the Database Diagnostics Pack.
From what I can tell from initial testing with 10gR3 Grid Control and Database Control, I am unable to set Notification Rules, blackouts, etc so that I can manage email notifications.
So, is it true that if using Standard Edition databases or Enterprise Edition databases without the Database Diagnostic Pack, I can't email alert and job notifications? Do these same rules apply if I were to do all my monitoring from Database Control instead of Grid Control?
Thanks for any and all feedback.
Terry

So, is it true that if using Standard Edition databases or Enterprise Edition databases without >> the Database Diagnostic Pack, I can't email alert and job notifications?That is true. If you go to Setup --> management Pack Access, at the bottom there is a link to a licencing page which gives you details on all the packs and what they allow you to do.
I've never used database control, so I'm afraid I cannot help you on that one.

Creating standby database from ASM production database in standard edition

Hi,
I am using oracle 10g release 2 standard edition. I recently created a database instance and wanted to create a standby database instance. After sorting out how to achieve this without managed standby and data guard I finally got it working and the shipped archive logs are applied and working well on the standby database.
Now I am thinking of re-creating my production database and using ASM for storage managment. By doing this can a standby database still be created from a primary database using ASM? I want to be sure I can before I commit to using ASM for the production instance and manually creating a standby database from that instance.
Note: I am using standard edition not enterprise edition.

Hi
For Oracle SE standby, you can visit www.anbultechnologies.co.uk , they have a brilliant product name DRMC which is Automatic disaster recovery solution with automatic failover in case primary goes down due to any reason.
We are using this product for more than 2 years and it works like a dream using Oracle Standard Edition. We have depolyed more databases and Standby solution within the prices of 2 EE edition licenses.
You can give ma try as well.

Standard Edition Memory Limitations

What is the upper memory limitation for the SGA size when using Standard Edition 9.x on Windows 2000?
What about Enterprise?

According what I know the SGA in one OS is limited by the OS and the parameter SGA_MAX_SIZE. I have never heard that SGA has limitations related to the license.
SGA_MAX_SIZE
Parameter type
Big integer
Syntax
SGA_MAX_SIZE = integer [K | M | G]
Default value
Initial size of SGA at startup, dependent on the sizes of different pools in the SGA, such as buffer cache, shared pool, large pool, and so on.
Parameter class
Static
Range of values
0 to operating system-dependent
SGA_MAX_SIZE specifies the maximum size of SGA for the lifetime of the instance.

Personal edition vs standard edition

I am new to oracle and am planning on installing oracle (personal or standard) onto a standalone desktop in my cube for test and develop(and learn) on.
My company is currently using Enterprise on sperate database servers that eventually I will probably get access to as admin for database yet to designed.
So my question is why not just use standard edition for my test and development on instead of personal edit.? Since it is cheaper for standard.
Also what is min desktop necessary for a small test and devel database in either of the editions? I will be using NT 4.0.

the Oracle software that you have ,Personal Edition or otherwise has documentation about the features available in each version of the Server, enterprise, standard and Personal.
That should give you an idea whihc version is best for ur desktop.
Also you will find the system requrements for the installation .That should help.

Db tuning in standard edition

Dear all,
Recently we migrated our database from 10g rac to 11gr2 rac in solaris. 11g database is comparatively slow , though we've allocated enough resources (sga..).For example. we ran a sample program and compare the trace files of both the environment and cannot find a major difference as the wait events are normal. We are using standard edition and we cannot use tuning advisor in this.Please advise how to proceed ?

Standby Database with Standard Edition

Hi All,
I'm attempting to setup a Standby database with Oracle 10g Standard Edition. I must manually copy over the archive logs to my Standby database server because i'm using Standard Edition.
Once my primary database archive logs have been copied over to the standby location shouldn't the database automatically apply those archive logs? I have issued the "alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session" so my understanding is that it is in recovery mode and shoudl be finding the archive logs to apply. Can anyone confirm that this configuration should work with Standard Edition and perhaps point me in the right direction, which parameters in the init file to check, to get my standby database to apply these archive logs automatically.
Thanks,

To quickly determine the level of synchronization for the standby database, issue the following query on the physical standby database:
SQL> SELECT ARCHIVED_THREAD#, ARCHIVED_SEQ#, APPLIED_THREAD#, APPLIED_SEQ#
2> FROM V$ARCHIVE_DEST_STATUS;
ARCHIVED_THREAD# ARCHIVED_SEQ# APPLIED_THREAD# APPLIED_SEQ#

RMAN backup with Standard Edition

I want to backup Oracle RAC database using RMAN.I am using Standard Edition so flashback database option is not available and many RMAN related features are also not available.I have set flash recovery area of 30 GB.
Now please tell me commands to take full backup and incremental backup.
I was able to backup using format clause.
Backup database format '+rac_dg2/dbbackup/dbf_%p'
tag 'DB_full_backup' ;
but in this command I have to specify format clause otherwise backup was stored at $ORACLE_HOME/dbs.
Now I want to take incemental backup
OS : Solaris 10 (sparc 64bit)
Oracle : Oracle 10.2.0.3.0 Standard Edition

Please suggest me where I have to change so I can store archive logs on FRA as well as on Local hard disk.
show parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST

VPD in Apex using Standard or XE version of database

I was planning to use the VPD method of security in my APEX application. Some of my sites are using Standard Edition and XE edition of database. Is it true that VPD only works in Enterprise Edition of database? If so, any suggestion on how to implement the same type of security in APEX without VPD?
Thanks!

Bob,
VPD functionality essentially gives the database the ability to dynamically add extra predicate information to your queries at runtime (as a simplification). This is enforced at the database level.
So, you're never going to really be able to implement the same type of security (since you can't develop something that is processed at that same level).
The only way you could really come close to it is by not giving end users direct access to the underlying tables and using either views (combined with application contexts) and/or table API's. If you give your end users access to the underlying tables and you haven't taken additional precautions then all bets are off (for example if you implement your functionality from inside your APEX app, someone could circumvent it by using SQLPlus etc).
I'm a huge fan of VPD (I included a section on it in my Pro Application Express book where I discuss using Application Contexts too), you can roll-your-own to a certain degree, but no you can't come close to the level of functionality true VPD gives you from a database-enforced level anyway.
Also, take a look at this AskTom thread which discusses contexts -

Logical Standby on Standard Edition

Hey,
I have to setup an enviroment with 10gR2 on Linux.
I can only use standard edition.
I will have a manual physical standby in place.
Now I get a new requirement: I need to have an additional db for read only access.
Now logical standby is not possible with standard edition.
I found shareplex for oracle (quest) - would that be an alternative ?
Do you have other ideas how to realize an standby database which can be read by an application -- the database should be sync with the primary as possible
thx

It is possible to setup a schedule for your standby database to switch between READ ONLY mode and recovery mode.
For example, from 8am till 12pm, you can have your physical standby database be in read only mode, so that users can run reports. The standby database will not be updated during this time.
From 12pm till 2pm, the standby is switched to normal recovery mode and all the latest changes are applied.
At 2pm the standby is switched back into read only mode for reporting purposes.
At 6pm the standby database is put back into recovery mode until 8am the next morning to ensure the standby database is fully up to date for the next reporting day.
For this to work well, and to make sure you are also covered for DR at all times, it is important that your primary database keeps sending the archive redo logs to the standby server.
The archive redo logs are then queued up and ready to be applied on the standby server. So if you do suffer a major outage and have to activate the standby database, all the archive logs are available on the standby server.
This is how http://www.dbvisit.com works to enable physical standby for Standard Edition (SE).

Basic standby database configuration in Oracle10g standard edition

Have anyone successfully implemented the technology in Oracle8i and earlier known as "Basic standby database" in Oracle10g SE? From the information, that I've been able to gather, this technology still exists in Oracle9i and later, along with Oracle Data Guard.
I'm not interested in the complete Data Guard environment - only the standby database feature as mentioned above. Basci
I've tried the documentation regarding the configuration of Data Guard (in lack off precise documentation on this technology) - but it's very confusing what's possible on SE an EE editions.
I've followed all the guidelines, enabled archive logging on primary database, created standby control file, copied the primary database files, created the pfile from the primary database - and then used this as the source for the spfile on the standby database.
I can then mount the standby database and start the recovery process with the following command:
alter database recover standby database disconnect;
The database is altered but no archive is applied (I've manually copied the archive logs from the primary). I've configured the standby_archive_dest - but the status for the MRP0 process keeps saying: WAITING_FOR_LOG
It seems like the "automatic" recovery mode doesn't work on SE. My conclusion is that you'll have to do everything manually - which means that I've have run the recover command manually - everytime I want to apply the archive logs from the primary.
Does anyone have a complete how-to-guide on this issue or have tried implementing in a real solution?

Hi,
>>The database is altered but no archive is applied (I've manually copied the archive logs from the primary). I've configured the standby_archive_dest - but the status for the MRP0 process keeps saying: WAITING_FOR_LOG
because ur using standard edition and in this edition the archivelog will not automatically move to standby from primary database.so u have to automatically transfer and apply it.
Thanks

SQL Server - Developer Edition - Downgrade to standard edition

Hi,
So the developer edition is a great way to setup a dev and test environment for pretty much nothing. But it is fully featured as an Enterprise Edition.
Now, we are using Standard Edition on our production servers.
Is it possible to install Developer Edition with only the standard edition features ?
Or to buy the developer licences and install standard edition for the test environment ?
The risk being that our devs use enterprise editions in the dev environment that would not work in production and thus add dev cycles.
Thanks

Hello,
Probably you can block the use of some enterprise features using Policy Based Management.
