Importing from higher to lower version of oracle database

I have taken user backup from Oracle 9i database.
Now I want to import that user into Oracle 8i database.
Is there any method to do this?

Always use a version of the EXPORT utility that is equal to the lowest version of either the source or the target database.
I suggest you to read this:

Import from higher to lower version is possible ?

Hi,
One of my production database is in 10.2.0.3 version and development is in 10.2.0.1 version?
I need to refresh dev database from prod. Export/import is possible in this scenario ?
Thanks,
Dasarath

Yes. Its possible.
Use 9i exp/imp to do this.
ThanksWhy 9i ? :-) I believe this is misleading info :-)
You will need to use the lower database version executables (in this case 10.2.0.1) to perform the export and import.

Acrobat - Conversion from higher to lower version - Problem & Bizhubs printing problem

My team developed a form using Acrobat 7.x that will be triggered from a portal - directly routed to a printer. (that is, a user can print the form directly to the printer just by clicking the form name - no need to open the form).
The form is getting printed in certain Laser Printers but its not printing in Bizhubs.
I suspect that the server that routes the form to printer doesnt have acrobat reader and uses Internet explorer as default application to open. I heard that IE is not much compatible with Acrobat 7.x.
So I tried to convert the form from Acrobat 7.X to Acrobat 6.X (using the Print option -> Adobe pdf)
The form gets converted to Acrobat 6.X but the form misses some properties.
That is, the form holds the Text boxes & text areas in it (in 7.X) when i converted to 6.X all these text boxes are no more.
Could any one please help me over come these problems?
1- Why a form that is routed thru server is getting printed in Laser Printers but not in Biz hubs. (Please note if i open the form in my machine and print directly to any printer it prints. It fails only when invoked thru portal - inturn thru server)
2- why conversion to lower version of pdf misses its properties.
Your timely help is much appreciated. Thank you so much in Adavance.
Thanks,
Aravind Srinivasan.

This is a good read for anyone attempting to convert a PDF to a Word document...

Hello Jootbox,
Are you by any chance using a cDAQ 9181 chassis?
If you are it might be a good idea to use the 4 counters internally available on this chassis.
A simple example about counting edges can be found over here:

RMAN can backup/restore diferent versions of Oracle DataBases regardless OS

Hi,
I am evaluating Recovery Manager to backup and restore Oracle databases.
I have to backup/restore diferents versions of Oracle database, these databases are running in diferents operating systems (AIX, LINUX, Windows)
For example:
Oracle DataBase 9 in AIX 5.3 system
Oracle DataBase 10 in Lunix system
Oracle DataBase 9 in Windows system
I want to have a single RMAN server in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
A single RMAN server can backup/restore diferent versions of Oracle DataBases regardless the operating system?
If the answer is yes, do I need to have an specif operting system in my RMAN server? (AIX, Linux, Windows, etc.)
Thanks for your help;

Hi,
Your question:
I want to have a single RMAN server in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
Sounds more like a machine.
If you would have asked:
I want to have a single RMAN recovery catalog in order to backup/restore all my Oracle DataBases, is it possible?
I would have confirmed as like the other two.
Be aware the catalog version needs to be equal or higher as the highest database version.

Which version of Oracle database is best for Windows 7 Home Premium?

Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium? Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?

EssbaseApprentice wrote:
Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium?That's easy to answer, none . No oracle database version was released for Home(Premimum) series. There are several blog posts/articles which do mention that they have installed oracle releases over Home(Premium) platforms but whether it would work or not, it would be just a lottery and help regarding troubleshooting would not be there.
Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?You mean 10g Express Edition and 10g Enterprise, Standard Editions? If yes, then there is indeed difference. The Express edition is more like a developer's playground with a good looking GUI even there to administer it. EE or SE are the production releases , meant for being used in a very busy, highly concurrent environments. There would be additional features like RAC and Dataguard that would come with EE and wont be there in the XE. So if you are learning to become a production DBA, you should right away use EE or SE IMO .

Latest version of Oracle database

Pl tell me the latest version of Oracle.

Then i let you explain to tens of thousands of Siebel
customers why Oracle uses Actuate :-)[snip]
You're more like competing with IBM , SAP and
Microsoft on these markets[ps: I'm not 'Oracle'. Don't even work for them. So it ain't "You're" ... <g>]
You totally miss the point. My apology for being obtuse. Let's try this again, a bit more straight forward.
This is a database forum. Specifically an Oracle core tech database forum.
It is not a BI forum. It is not an Actuate forum.
It is a database forum.
Maybe it's just me, but when a person asks "what is the Latest version of Oracle database", I would expect an answer related to the database version. Not an Oracle competitor or third party product.
Seems to me people interested in Actuate would normally go to places where Actuate users participate. And people who want to troll or discuss the virtues of Actuate would go to an appropriate BI forum elsewhere in the Oracle Forums.
Again, apologies for not being clear in the original response.

Free version of oracle database.

Hi everbody,
Can anybody tell if there is a free version of Oracle database which can be used for training purpose.
This software is required for the hands on purpose for the associates.
Moreover, it would be kind enough of you to suggest that which is the most suitable version for installing on CentOS 6.3 64 bit ?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

What is the purpose/content of the training ? For self-learning purposes, all of the database versions available at Oracle Downloads | Software | Oracle are "free". Currently, no Oracle database software is certified/supported on CentOS, although folks have managed to install it on this OS, with the assumption that they will have to troubleshoot any issues on their own. Again, for self-learning purposes, Oracle Linux is freely available at https://linux.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=101:3

...then import with lower version againThe official way should be export with the lowest version of export utility, but import with the import utility in the same version of the target database (where you are importing).

How to take Input from the callers telephone keypad into oracle database

My client requires to automate a registration task for his customers by telephone. The requirement is the Oracle database should take numeric input from the callers telephone keypad eg 1 or 2 or 3 and the oracle must store this input inside its database and do some required processing with such input and generate a unique numeric id (sequence) and send back this unique numeric ID to the caller who is on hold. Please Note. Is there any electronic device to be installed at the client site to solve the above task eg. any telephone line to be connected to the CPU and etc?
I completely have zero knowledge. Please can you outline/summarise the instructions how to construct and install to meet my client requirement.
If this is not possible in Oracle I Can migrate to any database. Please suggest.
please help me. if you cant help i appretiate if you give me some clues

You need to start with your telephone system. Normally this situation would involve some sort of PBX or other internal switching equipment. Talk to your vendor. There's likely to be software, etc. available to perform the interaction with the end user.
It should have programmable "hooks" to interface with various databases. To Oracle it just looks like another program.

How to pass a date parameter from report builder query designer to oracle database

i'm using report builder 3.0 connected to oracle database. i'm trying to pass a date parameter in the query with no success, i don't
know the exact syntax. I've tried :
SELECT * FROM igeneral.GCL_CLAIMS where CREATED_BY IN (:CREATED_BY) AND CLAIM_YEAR IN(:UW_YEAR) AND (LOSS_DATE) >To_Date('01/01/2014','mm/dd/yyyy')
it worked perfectly.
However if i try to put a date parameter "From" instead of 01/01/2014 it will not work, a Define Query Parameter popup window appear and error occurred after i fill
the values (usually i shouldnt get this popup i should enter the value when i run the report)
SELECT * FROM igeneral.GCL_CLAIMS where CREATED_BY IN (:CREATED_BY) AND CLAIM_YEAR IN(:UW_YEAR) AND (LOSS_DATE) >To_Date(:From,'mm/dd/yyyy')
appreciate your assistance

Hi Gorgo,
According to your description, you have problem when in passing a parameter for running a Oracle Query. Right?
Based on my knowledge, it use "&" as synax for parameter in Oracle, like we use "@" in SQL Server. In this scenario, maybe you can try '01/01/2014' when inputing in "From". We are not sure if there's any limitation for To_Date()
function. For your self-testing, you can try the query in sqlplus/sql delveloper. Since your issue is related to Oracle query, we suggest you post this thread onto Oracle forum.

Which version of Oracle database is certified on Windows 2008 R2 ( 64-bit)

We have a Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 (64-bit) server.
I wanted to know which Oracle database version is 100% certified on the above OS.

Hi Sirini;
10.2.0.5 is supported - see MOS Doc 1061272.1 (Statement of Direction: Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Client (10.2.0.5) with Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2)Correct;
11gR2 is also supported - see MOS Doc 867040.1 (Statement of Direction: Oracle Database 11g Release 2 – Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2)There is a setup on this link:
Oracle Database 11g Release 2
(11.2.0.1.0)
Microsoft Windows (x64) File 1, File 2 (2GB) See All
I am little bit confused for this, as you mention note and also certification matrix says 11gr2 certfied with Win2008-64 bit. But there is no specific setup like win2008-64 bit, there is only Microsoft Windows (x64) setup
By the way for 10gR2 on win 2008 64 bit platform there are 2 setups. Those are:
Oracle Database 10g Release 2
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) for Microsoft Windows Vista x64 and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 x64
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64)
So i had issue for my client and oracle worker support me to use 10.2.0.4 for my issue, not second setup. So for 11gR2 could be work for Microsoft Windows (x64) but i am not sure %100 coz never tried before.
i appreciate, If someone share their experience to make installation 11gR2 on win2008-64 bit wiht Microsoft Windows (x64) setup
All those upper setups can be found at:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
I do not believe 11gR1 is currently certified with Win 2008 R2.Please check below link:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
Oracle Database 11g Release 1 Standard Edition, Standard Edition One, and Enterprise Edition
(11.1.0.7.0)
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 (32-bit) (1.9 GB) | See All
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 x64 (1.9 GB) | See All
