Increase disk space for Oracle Linux VM

Hi
I am using the "Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g". The total available space at / is 654.62 MB.
Now how do I increase the disk space at /.
Thanks
BK

According to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/learnmore/vmsoa-172279.html this is a Virtualbox disk image and your question is about resizing a Virtualbox disk image, which is probably better placed in the VM forum e.g. Virtual Desktop Infrastructure and SunRay Clients
To my knowledge there is no easy command to simply resize a disk image using the VirtualBox Virtual Disk Manager and you will have to either add another disk and play with Linux LVM, or clone the existing disk image to a larger disk image. i.e. VBoxManage clonehd --existing oldhd.vdi newhd.vdi
Both steps are not easy to explain. I suggest to check the VirtualBox documentation at http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html or search the internet for information about how to resize a vdi disk image.

Out of disk space for Oracle 11i with Linux as OS

i want to add additional space for my server, currently i have (3) 36gb harddisk on raid 5 which add up to 108gb but since i am ran out of space for my data, i planned to add (1) 146gb though i can add 3 disk as i have 3 slots available, wont there be any complication if i add this as it is not the same with the current config? wont it affect my oracle application?

In my calculation, 3 36GB Disk under RAID5 add up 72GB. You could add your extra Disk for example on the /u01 mount point (standard for 11i apps). If you want to go for performance, you should consider another Disk with the same size and use RAID1, if that's available and hard disk mirroring is a requirement.

Increase disk size for virtual server

Hi,
A virtual server system drive is currently at 90%full. How to safely allocate more disk space to the system drive of that virtual server without causing issues to the installed Operating systems on that drive.
I read through the Virtual Iron documentation and nothing mention about increasing disk space for virtual server.
Thanks in advance for response.

Hi,
I was hoping to increase the virtual storage of the drive attached to virtual servers and not the actually physical storage.
I was looking around in it and found was able to increase the disk space by by editing the virtual storage disk.
I tested creating a new disk (5GB), increase the disk space(10GB) and login to virtual server and extend the new disk with the unallocated disk space.
It does seem to work and appear as 15GB.
I just concern if windows operating is installed on that disk, will it cause any issue if I extend it with the unallocated disk space?
Or it's safe to do so?
Many thanks.

Increasing Disk Space on VMware ISE

hi,
i would like to increase the disk space for Vmware based cisco ise to 600gb.
Increasing the raw disk space is fine on VMware, but how will the ISE or Linux OS modify the partition to recognise the extra disk space
thank

Refreshing an old thread, but I was faced with this recently.
If you're prepared to roll up your sleeves with Linux, I've figured out a procedure. In my case I couldn't rehost the license since it's an NFR version - and yes Tarik is correct a restore doesn't bring in the license.
Some instructions here.

RAID+10 provides better performance.

Where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5 ?

Folks,
Hello. I am using Oracle Linux 5 and Oracle Database 11g for PIA.
Before install Oracle DB 11g into Oracle Linux 5, we need to install X Window System according to the document page 2 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32285.pdf
But I don't know where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5.
Can any folk provide a link to download X Window System and tutorial to install it for Oracle Linux 5 ?

You can address the problem in a number of different ways.
You can install X-windows from the installation DVD or setup access to the Oracle public software repository as described in http://public-yum.oracle.com. In which case, the command to install X-windows is: yum groupinstall "X Window System"
Or, you login remotely and and use SSH with X-forwarding, in which case the software on the server will use the X-Windows server on your client system. This is probably the preferred way since you do not have X-windows installed on the server. For more details about SSH forwarding and howto, please see Install Oracle 11gR2 on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto part 2 Oracle Universal Installer.

Oracle 11gR2 certification for Oracle Linux 6

Hello,
According to Oracle documentation, database certification and support for Oracle 11gR2 under Oracle Linux starts with 11.2.0.3.
I was wondering if this might have anything to do with the i386 software prerequisites. Speaking of Oracle 11gR2 x86_64, the need for i386 libraries was removed with 11gR2 11.2.0.2. Or in other words, one can go straight to 11.2.0.2 without the need to install any 32-bit libraries.
Under Oracle Linux 5 x86_64, the "oracle-validated" package triggers the installation of several i386 packages. Under Oracle Linux 6 x86_64, the oracle-rdbms-server-11gr2-preinstall package uses x86_64 only. Under Oracle Linux 6, i386 changed to i686.
For what it's worth, I have installed Oracle 11gR2 database 11.2.0.1 under Oracle Linux 6.1 to 6.3, both x86_64, simply by using the oracle-rdbms-server-11gr2-preinstall package, and so far have not noticed any problems. Is there some information available, why 11.2.0.1 (x86_64) should not be used or is not certified for Oracle Linux 6 (x86_64)?
Thanks.

I was afraid of that. Since the question is Oracle Linux 6 specific, I thought I'd try my luck here, thinking that if I get an answer, then probably here. Maybe it was not very realistic to get an answer anyway.
For what it's worth. Using "oracle-validated" under Oracle Linux 5, and "oracle-rdbms-server-11gR2-preinstall" under Oracle Linux 6, I was able to install Oracle 11gR2 11.2.0.1 just fine, both platforms x86_64 and 32-bit. I have not found any operational issues yet and it seems to run perfectly well.
The only trouble I had was with Grid Infrastructure 11.2.0.1, and here 11.2.0.3 is indeed required for it to install. I made a custom patch, just a few lines and after that 11.2.0.1, both x86_64 and 32-bit installed just fine and is fully operational.
I'm though I could post the patch. I guess it might make those people happy who do not have access to Oracle support and download 11.2.0.3. The patch will allow them to use the 11gR2 OTN version and install it under Oracle Linux 6. It won't be certified, but it is good enough for the purpose of education.
I'm closing the thread.

How to get available disk space for a disk in the system ?

hi all,
I need to figure out the available disk space for a particular disk before I can write my file to a directory in the disk. I do this to avoid unsufficient disk space problem in my program. May I know how can I do this in Java ? I look at the API function for java.io.File class but there isn't any function to check disk space. I would appreciate any help from fellow Java developers. Thanks a million.
regards,
tuck meng

You cannot do this in purely platform independent way.
You can use System.exec to run native OS utilities like df and parse the output, but then you have to knwo which platform your program is running on, or build in some automatic detection of OS and have corresponding native calls for each likely one.
BTW. even if you get a number of free bytes on disk that's larger than the size of the file you want to write this is no guarantee that there will be enough diskspace for your file, because another process might write to the disk in the meantime. So you will have to do proper error handling and recover gracefully from the disk full sitution no matter what.

DPM is out of disk space for the replica

Trying to make a bare metal backup of a phyiscal server running 2008 R2 SP1 . I've checked im not out of space. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the agent, I've manually tried to make the disk allocation larger same error.
DPM is out of disk space for the replica. (ID 58 Details: Internal error code: 0x809909FF)
This is in the event log on the Client machine
The backup operation attempted has failed to start, error code '2155348040' (There is not enough free space on the backup storage location to back up the data.). Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once
the issue is resolved.
I have several other machines doing bare metal backups they are virtual but I can't see why that would be any different. They have no problems doing this. I have seen hacks on the internet editing xml files to get this to work changing allcritical to "C:".
I'd like an actual fix for this please?

Mike quick question. How can I determine which share my particular server is using to backup to? Here is what I get when I try to do a DIR on the folder as system
C:\Windows\system32>whoami
nt authority\system
C:\Windows\system32>dir
\\kdnap-util1\0ae3c77eaab54ea09b0724737a125f48
Access is denied.
C:\Windows\system32>dir
\\kdnap-util1\12068c1992634c92addf44bfbee5cada
Access is denied.
I was just trying to poke around to browse the folder to see which one to back it up to . But with the access denied error this isn't helpful :)
Here is my list of shares
C:\Windows\system32>net view \\kdnap-util1
Shared resources at \\kdnap-util1
I also tried doing a DIR from a server that is backing up correctly on any of those shares listed above after running psexec and I get access denied from them as well so I guess thats normal

CVE-2014-6271 and CVE-2014-7169 Patch Availability Document for Oracle Linux

Hi,
Can you suggest from where we need to download bash rpm for OEL 6 :-
bash-4.1.2-15.el6_5.2.x86_64.rpm
bash-doc-4.1.2-15.el6_5.2.x86_64.rpm
Thanks in Advance !!
Mukesh

First see the document I linked about creating a local yum mirror (How to Create a Local Yum Repository for Oracle Linux). I very strongly recommend setting this up so your systems can get other updates besides bash.
The individual RPMs can be found at Index of /repo/OracleLinux/OL6/latest/x86_64/ -- but I cannot stress the importance of updating entire systems rather than just bash. If you are not updating your systems periodically, bash is just one of your worries (as you're undoubtedly vulnerable to hundreds of other exploits in other packages besides Shellshock). Please set up an update repository and use it.
Patching only the vulnerabilities you see in the news is equivalent to locking your home's front door, but leaving the security alarm disconnected and the back door held open with a doorstop. You need all the updates, not just bash.

Basic installation: X11 for Oracle Linux 6.3

Hi All,
I created Oracle VM and installed Linux 6.3 as operation system. First try with X Windows and X11 shows, that I can not start X-Appse.g. xclock --> command not found!
How can I correct install oderwise configure X11 for Oracle Linux 6.3
Regards,
Moh

I guess Oracle VM VirtualBox and Oracle VM can be misleading. Oracle should better call it Oracle Virtualbox, without VM in the name. Fyi: http://www.oracle.com/us/technologies/virtualization/oraclevm/index.html
Anyway, a default installation of Oracle Linux or RHEL 6 does not install the X Window system and a graphical user desktop. If you want to run X11 applications you have 2 options:
- Use remote access from a system that has X Window server installed
- Install X Window and a window manager on your virtual machine.
If this is a new installation and you use it locally then I suggest to re-install the system and customize the package selection. You should see a prompt "customize now" during the installation where you can select the Desktop packages.

Oracle databse 10g express edition 64 bits for oracle linux 64bits

Can I find somewere where i do downlod of oracle database 10g XE 64bits for oracle linux 64bits
Please help me.
I realy need this database !
thank's

Edited by: 968495 on 30/10/2012 10:17

All 10g oracle is under extended support, the XE 10g version was yanked from the download pages at about the time 10g went Extended.
Probably won't be able to get a download from anywhere under oracle.com but there might be a few sites that still have it hosted. Try google.

Can I move cache to external hard drive to save disk space for photoshop and bridge?

Can I move cache to external hard drive to save disk space for photoshop and bridge?

So could I take everything off my external hard drive, save it to my Mac, then re-format it for my Mac and move everything back to the external hard drive?
Yes. Keep in mind that you need to back up all data, including the data on an external drive. So if you're going to use the external drive to store original data, as opposed to backups, then you really need another one to back up the first one. You also need to back up the data on your internal drive, of course. This isn't optional. You must do it, or you'll lose everything sooner or later. All disk drives fail eventually, often with no warning.
If I do that how do I format the external hard drive for my Mac?
Launch the Disk Utility application and search the built-in help for "erase."
Would it be easier to just buy a external hard drive that is for a Mac?
All external hard drives work with Macs. Some might come pre-formatted for use with Macs, but it only takes a few minutes to do that yourself.
