How to drop a database?

Hi,
There is a Oracle database which is useless. Therefore, I will
like to
drop this database from my Oracle. How should I do, so that I can
remove the database correctly and clearly?
null

If your environment is UNIX:
1. shutdown database and instance.
2. remove all datafiles, controlefiles, redo logs etc.
from operating system.
3. remove entry from /etc/oratab
4. modify listener.ora and any tnsnames.ora files as
appropriate.
If your environment is WINNT:
1. shutdown database and instance.
2. Use Oracle Database Assistant to remove services.
3. remove all datafiles, controlefiles, redo logs etc.
from operating system.
4. modify listener.ora and any tnsnames.ora files as
appropriate.

  • How to drop oracle 10.2.0.4 rac database on RHEL5

    Hi,
    I am having oracle 10.2.0.4 rac database with ASM configuration on RHEL5. Every week/day i take rman level 0 / level 1 backups by using RMAN into disk. Now i would like to test those backups. For that i need to drop this existing database and restrore, recovery from those backups. My database is configured with asm that is having two disk groups.
    DATA for storing data
    FRA for archive logs
    How can i drop the rac 10.2.0.4 database and restore & recovery database from RMAN backups with asm. Could any one send clean steps for this testing?
    Thanks

    I asked about instances. Before performing your steps is it mandatory to bring down all the oracle instances. Before droping this database how to deregister these services from clusterware? After recover the database how to register the database services with clusterware?if you want to register/de-register, you need to use SRVCTL in clusterware. commands to ADD/REMOVE from clusterware, refer this below note.

  • How to drop  EM Oracle Enterprise Manager component from database.

    We have database that somebody used in past as EM Grid repository. This no longer in use. Looking for documentation on how to drop it. If somebody knows please provide me with link to appropriate Oracle document.
    Oracle version 11gR1.
    Thanks.

    I suspect that if you cannot locate the instructions on the proper way to remove EM that you can drop the owning repositiry user sysman from the database then cleanup any database parameters related to EM.
    I would think the place to start would be the EM (Grid Control) installation manual for your version of Oracle and platform.

    A good practice is to specify the OS and DB versions at the top of your thread. Do you want to 'Drop' a database or do you want to wipe it off from your OS. You could use Yingkuan advice, just use dbca, if it is not possible, depending on the OS you are currently working with, you should remove the Windows service, deconfigure it and physically remove it or simply, on unix like platforms, just remove it and remove its configuration.

  • How to create a database for sample code from Tutorial/Book?

    I want to try out the sample code from [http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920013471.do] for the book SQL Pocket Guide 3rd Ed.
    I have downloaded the oracle vm/appliance for oracle 11g2 and I have started sqlplus as sysdba.
    I'm feeling overwhelmed with these links describing how to create a database:
    [http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html]
    [http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Oracle-7-HOWTO-3.html]
    [http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html]
    (1) What is the command to list the existing databases?
    (2) What is the command to delete an existing database?
    (3) When creating a new database with the create database command, is it necessary to specify the logfile, character set, national character set, datafile, sysaux datafile, undo tablespace, temp table space? Do these have reasonable defaults? I'm not sure what proper directories are to specify for Linux and the examples are for windows.
    Can someone give me a simplified create database command to create a database called 3rdEdPocketGuide? Should I follow the example at [http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Oracle-7-HOWTO-3.html] and instead of orcl use 3rdEdPocketGuide?
    (4) What command do I use to execute the script that comes with the book SQL Pocket Guide 3rd Ed? This is the script that has all the drop table, create table and insert commands in it.
    (5) What command do I use in sqlplus to set the current default database prior to running this script? Perhaps this is the connect command? I don't want my script to create tables in the system database.
    (6) I tried the command "connect 3rdEdPocketGuide" and it prompted for a password! Yikes! What password? Do I need to specify a password when I create a database? I cannot tell if I have successfully created such a database or it is just prompting me for a password to thwart malicious users. Is it is possible to create databases which don't require a password or maybe a zero length password?
    Thanks

    When I use the defaults of sid=xe, port=1521, hostname=localhost and specify

    I get status: failure - test failed: listener refursed connection with the following error: ORA 12505, TNS: listener does not current know of sid given.
    So I try sid=orcl and that works better: status: failure - test failed: ORA-01017: invalid username/passowrd; login denied
    OK, sqlplus let me in with out a password, why does not this work?
    So I try checking the box for "OS Authentication" and I get the same error!
    Hoek: I tried searching the documentation and found "3 Exploring Oracle Database with SQL Developer" at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10766/toc.htm but following those directions did not help.

    Everyone:
    Do I need to create a user using SQL*Plus first so I can login with "Oracle SQL Developer" so I create my database called? What would be the "create user" command I would execute?
    OK, so I run sqlplus and issue these commands
    create user siegfried identified by abc ;
    grant connect to siegfried ;
    connect siegfried/abc;
    Now, how do I create a database? In Microsoft SQL Server one has to create a database first and if you just start creating tables without creating a database first, the tables will be created in the system database and this is usually undesirable.
    Sometimes a database is known in the java connection string as the catalog. Is there any such analog in oracle SQL plus?
    So now what do I do? I want to create a bunch of tables using my script I downloaded from 3rd Ed SQL Pocket Guide. Does my new user "siegfried" have the right to create tables? I guess I could try but I don't want to create tables in the system database.
    I noticed I can also use "Oracle SQL Developer" to connect with my new "siegfried" account. It seems that I should have been able to connect with sysdba... strange.
    So now I am connected in the "Oracle SQL Developer" and I see no list of databases.
    Thanks!

    Let me say this - I have taken over from someone who has left a development database which developers want to use asap in a poor state and no documentation. It is only when I started looking at the database that I discovered these problems. At the same time a developer wants a script which they he run to drop and recreate a database - it only needs to be minimal - small database, a few tables and stored procedures.OUI uses RMAN restore to produce starter DB & does not CREATE DATABASE from scratch.
    It takes hours to run CATPROC & such after 100% totally empty results from CREATE DATABASE command

  • How to drop the datafile in a tablespace

    hi,
    I need to drop the datafile in a tablespace.How to drop the datafile in the tablespace.If iam able to drop the datafile and is it possible to create the datafiles with the same name.could u pls help me out..
    Thanks in advance,
    R.Ratheesh

    sql > alter database <datafile> offline drop ;
    sql > alter database open ;What if the datafile have the segments in it, I believe users will not be able to access them. And system will put the datafile to Recovry mode not drop it.
    Dropping a datafle is possible only in 10G. In 9i you can reduce the size of file below the size of your min extents so that the space wont be allocated from that datafile or you may need to recreate a new tablespace copy all the segments from old tablespace and drop old one.

  • How to find the database growth rate?

    Wanted to do the forecasting of disk growth for one year. How to find the database growth rate?
    Rahul

    This is code authored by Richard Ding that will log database sizes to a table.  If you run it every day, then you can go back and compare the database size differences day to day... week to week... month to month... and year over year.  That is
    how I forecast growth over time.
    Note:  There is a database name required that is local to your environment, so change [YOURDATABASENAME] to whatever local database you wish to use.  I will also post the DDL to create the target table.  Create that table in the database you
    name in the stored procedure code and all should run fine.

  • Drop a database

    I am working on Oracle 10gR2.
    I created a database using from a dmp using
    imp <user name >/<Password> file=<> log =<> full=Yes
    The database was created on the correct tblspace as i earlier specified the users default tablaspace. Now i need to drop this database. when i type on sqlplus
    drop database <>; it gives as " ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended"
    How could I drop this database???

    As per OP:
    The database was created on the correct tblspace as i earlier specified the
    users default tablaspace. Now i need to drop this database. when i type on
    sqlplus Which default tablespace? SYSTEM?
    If you wish to drop everything created from the imp user (which user?) on that tablespace, then you are better off dropping the user and not the database.
