Hardware requirements for Sun - Solaris

I am getting ready for a massive upgrade from 9i to 10g. I was wondering what are the hardware requirements for the management server for 10g..it will be monitoring 30 other servers with 9i / 8i / and 10g databases.

The referenced document refers to two methods of accomplishing the upgrade. One is to use the upgrade utility and the other is to manually execute the upgrade scripts. There is, however, a third way that is much easier and that gives you immediate access to all of the new features of the 10g database.
Both of the methods described in the document, which you should read no matter what you do, perform all of the upgrade changes to the existing database. This is why you cannot go directly from 7.3.4 to 10g. The scripts that are behind the process just will not run successfully in a 7.3.4 database. As a result, you would have to upgrade to 8.0.6 and then to 10g. This is the "supported" path, but you do not have to follow this path to achieve a successful upgrade.
The third upgrade scenario is to create a new 10g database using scripts that you have written that utilize all of the various new features that you would like to use such as locally managed tablespaces and undo management. Once this has been created and tuned up a bit, you would perform an export/import to get your application's code and data from the old database to the new.
In our enterprise, we have over 450 databases, and we just could not afford to take the time to follow the "supported" path. It would have taken too long, and we had only a few days to convert 272 of these with more time for the rest. As a result, we built our own create scripts for the new databases, ran those in advance of our worldwide deployment date, and then we used the export and import tools to move our application code and data. This was a lot easier than the "official" method, and it works.
The advantage to this approach is that it is straightforward and does not involve Oracle's upgrade tools which many have had problems using. The disadvantage is that you really have to know what you are doing. If you are not an experienced DBA, you may not have the wherewithal to successfully execute this method.
Kind regards,

Oracle WebLogic Server 11g (10.3.3) System Requirements
Oracle WebLogic Server supports a number of platforms including:
– Linux
– Sun Solaris
– HP-UX
– Windows 2000, 2003 Server, XP
• Processor:
– At least one 1 GHz CPU is recommended.
– Intel and UNIX processors are supported.
• Hard disk drive:
– A full installation requires approximately 2 GB of disk space.
– The Linux value for file descriptors must be 4096 or greater.
– Samples are optional (download from OTN).
• Memory:
– A minimum of 2 GB RAM is recommended for WebLogic
Server.
– Consider the number of simultaneous users and sessions.
– Consider in-memory programs, such as Coherence.
System Requirements
The following are some of the basic system requirements for Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.3:
• The Oracle WebLogic Server installer requires a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to run.
Oracle WebLogic Server is certified with JDK6.0. As part of the installation, it gives the option
to install the JRockit JDK 6.0 version. As part of postinstallation, prefix the bin directory of
the JDK to the PATH environment variable.
• The Oracle WebLogic Server installer requires a temporary location in which to unpack the
files. Typically, the installer requires approximately 2.5 times the amount of temporary space
that is required by the installed files.
Note: In this release of WebLogic Server, users can choose which components of WebLogic Server
they use. Specifically, this release allows users to choose whether the Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB),
Java Message Service (JMS), and J2CA services are started when WebLogic Server is started. The
benefit of excluding some services is reduced memory footprint and reduced startup time.

Hardware requirements for virtualization

Hi,
Someone has experience about installing a 16 thin-client network or bigger using VirtualBox? I need to know what linux distribution did you use on server? what are the hardware requirements for the server? and what is your experience about performance on client side.
Please only answers from someone who has made this before.

Just a few clarifications:
* VirtualBox needs to run on top of Solaris 10 U6. And this is the version that is distributed with VDI 3.0
* You get 4-5 VMs on a core with an average load. Find more information on the deployment guide:
http://wikis.sun.com/display/VDI3/Deployment+Guide
So for you case an 2 CPU quad core would be absolutely fine even if your workload is way higher

Hardware Requirements for OC4J and Oracle DB

Hi,
I'm looking for some information about hardware requirements for a server that will run a Oracle DB and OC4J. It will be used for training purpose (about 10 people) and for running small apps using ADF.
Does anybody knows how much hardware I need?
Is there any documents from Oracle for hardware requirements?
Any help appreciated. Thanks

Greetings,
We routinely develop and test on a Dell Vostro laptop with OS Windows XP and 4GB RAM. The key is to either run the Oracle db in a VM (10.2.0.1) with at least 0.5 GB RAM for the VM or use the XE db. I personally prefer the XE db as it is lightweight and easily configured or uninstalled. As far as oc4j is concerned, a lot can be done to improve the efficiency by modifying the oc4j.cmd file in driveletter:/oc4j/bin:
set JVMARGS=-Xmx512m -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit -server -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dclass.load.trace=class-not-found -Dclass.load.log.level=finestThe JVM args settings are fully explained at:

...recommended system & hardware requirements for clients P6 8.2 Clien&Webs

What are the recommended system & hardware requirements for clients P6 Professional and Client Web for P6 8.2 ???
I need to know the recommended systems & hardware requirements for clients P6 Professional and Client Web for P6 8.2
I mean what kind of processor, memory ram minimum and maximus to run or to deploy P6 Professional Client from P6 8.2 version and the requeriments to run the P6 8.2 Web application.
I need like a chart (not necesary) with the most common configuration with hardware and software like the example below
     SO     Ram     Hdd     Processor
P6 Professional 8,2     Windows Xp Sp3     4 Gb     2 Gb +     Core2Duo 1,8 +
     Oracle Linux     4 Gb     3 Gb     Core2Duo 1,6 +
P6 Web 8,2     Windows Xp Sp3     4 Gb     2 Gb +     Core2Duo 1,8 +
     Oracle Linux     4 Gb     3 Gb     Core2Duo 1,6 +
Because all information I saw it´s about Server (Database, Server Application and others) and not very clever about P6 8.2 Client and P6 8.2 Web.

I haven't seen PC requirements for a Win workstation per se either. Here are the only 8.2 client requirements I can find.
Supported Configurations for Client Modules
For Clients Accessing P6

 Sun JRE (the required version will install automatically with P6); Always install the latest supported patch update with security fixes
 TCP/IP network protocol
For Clients Accessing P6 Progress Reporter
 IE 8, IE 9, Firefox 8+, Safari 5.1.x+, Chrome 15+
 Sun JRE (the required version will install automatically with P6 Progress Reporter);
Always install the latest supported patch update with security fixes
 TCP/IP network protocol
 Optional software:
 Java Access Bridge 2.01 (for 508 accessibility)
 P6 Progress Reporter has been tested with the following technologies:

Oracle for Sun Solaris (Intel Platform)

I want to know that if oracle for sun solaris 8 (intel platform) is available and anyone has installed it. On OTN only oracle for sun solaris (For SPARC ) is available for download.
if anyone know it for solaris 8 (intel platform) then please tell me where to get it from.

So that we may better diagnose DOWNLOAD problems, please provide the following information.
- Server name ORACLE 9I DATABASE
- Filename
- Date/Time 5 JULY 2K2
- Browser + Version IE 6
- O/S + Version SUN SOLARIS
- Error Msg

I didn't see anything on the Sun site, but the disk arrived with my Solaris media. I have installed it on one machine (you need to create the "oracle" user id, the "dba" group, and you must set the tunable parameters for shared memory to install the software and example database.)
I tried to install a second machine and the Oracle installer terminates half way through without errors. I'm still working that issue.

Oracle 11g R2 for Sun Solaris???

You will see that 11.1.07 is for Windows ServerActually, you might note that it is for Windows Server *2008*. OS qualifiers are fairly important. Sentences may sort of trail off to noth
What you download from the freely available site,and what is the current version with patches applied is often a different thing.
The freely available 'for learning and prototyping' downloads (from the site you mention) are NOT updated to a new patch level. (If necessary, they may be revised to fix bugs that stop them for being installed, but they keep the same point level.)
If a version of the OS is released after the s/w has been made available, and there are problems installing or using that combination, Oracle MAY decide to fix, apply patch set and and make available the s/w for that specific OS.
And if you are waiting for 11.2 because you don't have Support and can't get 11.1.0.7 patch, then I express concern for your management's approach. Missing CPUs and other patches is not a good idea for production.

Hardware requirement for running exchange 2010 on vmware workstation

Dear Team,I need to create a exchange 2010 sp2 on a guest os on vmware workstation.kindly help me out with the physical hardware requirements for a home user

Hey Mukund26,
Before I answer your questions, my suggestion would be for you to figure out exactly what you want to get out of running that Exchange lab. Are you trying to learn Exchange features like DAGs? Are you trying to learn about virtualizing Exchange? When you figure that out you'll be better able to answer question 1 since you may not need all of those virtual machines.
Here are my thoughts on your questions.
1) It is probably technically possible to run 10 virtual machines on the configuration you have but you're going to have pretty bad performance. I would try to trim that down to only the virutal machines that you really need in order to use the lab how you want to use it. Here are some questions that may help you figure out what you need:
Why do you need two domain controllers? I don't think you need to worry as much about redundancy in your lab.
Why do you need 2 ESXi hosts and a vCenter? What purpose do they serve in this configuration? Are you trying to run the Exchange VMs nested under the ESXi VMs? If so, why?
Is there a reason why you want to separate out HTS/CAS from MBX in your lab? Combining all roles together can reduce the number of VMs you need. If you separate out the roles you'll need to allocate a lot of RAM to support all of those Exchange VMs.
2) Running a lot of virtual machines on a single 1TB SATA disk, especially a 5400 RPM disk, is going to be slow. It'll be especially painful when the VMs are booting up, rebooting, shutting down, etc.. Try to stagger the power on operations so they don't all boot at once. For example, first boot your DCs, then boot your HTS/CAS, then your MBX, etc. There is no doubt that configuration will be slow, so if you can get your hands on an solid state drive with enough space you'll have significantly better performance. For the purposes of a lab, though, it is probably ok if you can be patient.
3) I think the i5 processor will be just fine for this lab. Usually in a lab setting CPU performance isn't the most important thing so similar to above as long as you can be a little patient I think that CPU will suit you just fine.
As I said figure out what you want to get out of the lab and then you can determine how many VMs you need and whether or not you want to upgrade hardware. If you're looking to learn about Exchange 2010 in general I would suggest using multirole servers, getting rid of one of the DCs, and not worrying about virtualizing ESX/vCenter so that you can learn. If you're looking to learn about virtualizing Exchange 2010 on vSphere then let's figure out exactly what you want to get out of it and figure out what you can learn using VMware Workstation and what you really need vSphere for.
Best of luck!
