How to know whether database(oracle) is up and running at OS level

how to know whether database(oracle) is up and running at OS level...!!!

depends on the O/S you are using, Unix or Windows? I would use Korn shell script to monitor the Oracle background process and scripts to check of Oracle is accepting connections.
This UNIX command will show the number of processes for your instance:
ps -ef|grep $ORACLE_SID|grep -v grep|grep -v ora_|wc u2013l
In Windows I would look into services.msc

  • How to know whether my oracle 10g instalation in unicode supported or not

    Hi
    i am new to oracle. I have installed Oracle 10g client and server.
    I want to know whether the database created can store unicode data/arabic data.
    Please guide me how can i find whether unicode support is on for my db or not.
    The outputs of some of the queries run by me are as follows:
    SQL> HOST ECHO $NLS_LANG;
    $NLS_LANG
    SQL> HOST ECHO %NLS_LANG%;
    %NLS_LANG%
    SQL> @.[%NLS_LANG%];

    SQL> select cust_eng_name,cust_arb_name from custmast;
    select cust_eng_name,cust_arb_name from custmast
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    Please reply me asap.

    1. Yeh that is the thing I want. What are the other steps that i need to do with my Oracle Client/Server for unicode support.
    Where i am getting trouble is the Oracle Client/Server unicode support.
    And how to decide what character set will suite me best.1. If your application is going to be a "true" Unicode application, you can set the NLS_LANG registry/environment setting on your clients to ".UTF8" to enable true Unicode support.
    2. Your database needs to support Unicode, too.
    The recommended database character set for this in 10g is "AL32UTF8".
    If you currently have a single-byte database character set (WE8MSWIN1252), you need to decide how to get this done.
    If you can simply create a new database using the "AL32UTF8" character set, this would be the easiest way.
    There are several documents available (e.g. on Oracle MetaLink) that describe in detail how to convert the character set of an existing database. Depending on your data this can be a tedious task involving several steps, so may be creating a new database and exporting/importing the data might be the simplest choice if you need to migrate some existing data.
    The recommended national character set is "AL16UTF16", by the way, but that shouldn't matter that much once you have a Unicode enabled database using "AL32UTF8" as database character set.
    2. How to set/retrive the "Database Character Set" and "National Character Set". This has already been answered partly. Retrieve:
    Database Character Set:
    SELECT VALUE FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';National Character Set:
    SELECT VALUE FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER = 'NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET';In most of the cases you can't just simply set/alter the character sets, as outlined above.

  • How to know whether the current database is using a password file or not?

    How to know whether the current database is using a password file or not?

    The remote_password_file is the parameter that determines if you can use or not a password file. The values this parameter can have are NONE, SHARED, EXCLUSIVE. It is pretty obvious, if it is set to either SHARED or EXCLUSIVE the oracle instance has enabled the access through a password file for the SYSDBA and SYSOPER roles.

  • How to know whether a concurrent program (report, procedure) is ......

    Hi All,
    How to know whther a conurrent program (report or package) is "Single OU or Multiple OU".
    OU: Operating Unit
    Any advice appreciated.
    Thanks

    Are you asking how to tell whether a concurrent program can be run for a single Operating Unit in a multi-Operating Unit environment?
    If you are asking about standard Oracle concurrent programs, then I would say that they should all be capable of running for a single OU in a multi-OU environment WHERE the module relates to operating units. For example the HR/Payroll modules do not relate to operating units, but rather business groups and concurrent programs in these modules will be able to be run by business group.
    If you are asking about custom concurrent programs, then I would suggest the easiest way to tell would be to run them and see, although having an Org ID parameter would be a good indication.

    Trust me - I've been developing on an XP box for years and Java 1.6 for a good amount of time. This has been using Tomcat, JBoss, and Glassfish (and I try hard to forget about Oracle OC4J). These are application servers that implement part (Tomcat) or all (the rest) of the J2EE specification.
    Having said that, you'll want at least 2GB of RAM and a hundred or so megabytes of disk space. Less RAM will work but slowly. A reasonable processor (I'd say at least 1.5GHz or above) will speed development.

  • How to know whether balance carry forward has happened or not

    How to know , whether balance carry forward has happened or not for a perticular GL account or for the company code as a whole?

    If the account is a balance sheet account, you can merely look at the beginning balance for the same balance sheet account for the beginning of the next fiscal year FS10N. The beginning balance will equal the previous year's ending balance. Since this does not happen automatically, you will know that carry forward has not been done if a balance sheet account has no beginning balance in the following fiscal year.
    If you are talking about For P&L GL accounts, you can check the acvitity in the retained earnings accounts to make sure that they have been updated for the P&L activity. You can identify the retained earnings account by looking at the master data for the account in the section "P&L statmt acct type" and pulling up the menu to see the actual retained earnings account number.
    You can perform carry foward (GVTR) as many times as you want but normally once it has been ran, any postings to a  previous fiscal year are automatically carried forward to the current year after that initial run.

  • How to know whether the javascript is disabled or not while loading the jsp

    Hi,
    My query is like how to know whether the javascript is disabled or not while loading the Application main JSP in Mozilla browser.
    I want some Java code or JavaScript code.

    To the point, just let JS fire a specific HTTP request inside the same session.
    This can be done in several ways. 1) Create a hidden <img> element and set the `src` attribute so that it will request a (fake) image from the server. The server just have to intercept on this specific request. 2) Fire an ajaxical request and let the server intercept on it. You can use a Filter for this which sets a token in the session scope to inform that the client has JS enabled.

  • How to know whether a method is thread-safe through the java-doc?

    In some book, it says that SAXParserFactory.newSAXParser() is thread-safe,but in the java-doc,it doesn't say that.
    newSAXParser
    public abstract SAXParser newSAXParser()
    throws ParserConfigurationException,
    SAXExceptionCreates a new instance of a SAXParser using the currently configured factory parameters.
    Returns:
    A new instance of a SAXParser.
    Throws:
    ParserConfigurationException - if a parser cannot be created which satisfies the requested configuration.
    SAXException - for SAX errors.
    I want to know, how to know whether a method is thread-safe?

    System.out is a PrintStream object. None of the methods there use the synchronized modifier, but if you look in the source code, you will find out it is thread-safe, because it will use synchronized blocks whenever it writes some text.
    The source code is in the src.jar file which you can extract.
    I didn't find any comments about that PrintStream is thread-safe in the API.

  • How to know whether the Content Type at Library level is Inheriting Parent Content type or not Using Powershell?

    Hi,
    How to know whether the Content Type at Library level is Inheriting Parent Content type or not using Powershell?
    Is there any property for that? Or Do I need to compare the Content type Id's at Site collection level and Library level?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    AA.

    Hi Ashok,
    For a content type, there is an attribute called Inherits, the value of this attribute determines whether the content type inherits fields from its parent content type when it is created.
    If Inherits is TRUE, the child content type inherits all fields that are in the parent, including fields that users have added.
    If Inherits is FALSE or absent and the parent content type is a built-in type, the child content type inherits only the fields that were in the parent content type when SharePoint Foundation was
    installed. The child content type does not have any fields that users have added to the parent content type.
    More information, please refer to the link:
