Install a new database to clone an existing one?

Hi all.
I have a database 11.2 on linux working fine, I want to clone this db for a dev. env., so I just installed a new linux machine (machine#2) with the same O.S. than machine #1 (OEL 4.7)
May I choose "install software only" option at step 2??? I dont know the difference between choose "install and configure" and "software only" options.
if correct, what do I need to do later?
I need to have exactly the same, so when I have things ready for production export ot to the machhine #1.
thanks

Hi;
May I choose "install software only" option at step 2??? I dont know the difference between choose "install and configure" and "software only" options.All those information cover at:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e16763/inst_task.htm#BABJGGJH << check under *7.See Chapter 5 for information about tasks that you must complete after you install Oracle Database*
if correct, what do I need to do later?
I need to have exactly the same, so when I have things ready for production export ot to the machhine #1.If you want to clone your datase you can go with clone operation or datapum. Please use search mechanisim. Similar issue mention here many times.

  • How to create a new database instance from an existing one?

    Hi, I basically want to create a snapshot of a production
    instance (version 8.1.7) for querying purposes. Would anyone
    tell me the steps involved? What I did as follows:
    1. Copy all data files to a new location
    2. Modify init.ora accordingly. I believe there is no separate
    control file for this version.
    But when I startup the instance, got this error:
    ORA-01103: database name 'TRITON' in controlfile is not 'HERCULE'
    What is missing? Do these data files contains links to the
    previous instance name?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi All,
    I need some help in recreating new database instance.
    Here are the steps I have done so far:
    1. Created a database with name 'LASTDB' using DBCA
    2. Connected to RMAN.
    3. RMAN>SET DBID=******; (of the source database)
    4. Connect to target. RMAN>connect target SYS/*****;
    5. Executed controlfile restore on RMAN.
         RMAN>Run{
    Allocate channel D1 Type DISK;
              Set controlfile autobackup format for device type DISK to
    ‘\\<ip_address>\Backup\Prod\%F’;
    Restore controlfile from autobackup;
    6. RMAN> ALTER DATABASE MOUNT;
    Now got an error saying ORA-01103: database name ‘PRODDB' in control file is not ‘LASTDB’
    I tried using NID to change the database name but it's throwing an error that database is not mounted.
    I have browsed a lot and found that I need to recreate a control file of the production database using ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE and should edit the trace file. But it also says to shutdown the source database which is production database and I cannot try that.
    Also I have tried adding a line to init.ora like lock_space_name = LASTDB. Also tried replacing everything from LASTDB to PRODDB but that didn't work either.
    I have been trying to find a solution to this. Please bear with me as I'm a beginner and please let me know how I can fix the error.
    I am running oracle 10.1.0.2.0 enterprise edition on windows 2000.
    Thanks for your patience,

  • Can't select the new Azure sql service tiers when creating a new database or upgrading an existing one

    Hi all,
    I have set up the preview for the new Azure SQL tiers on both of the subscriptions we have for Azure. The one under my MSDN subscription to and a pay as you go subscription
    The pay as you go subscription works fine but when I try to upgrade an existing Azure sql database or create a new one on my MSDN subscription it doesn't give me the option of the new tiers.
    Using the new portal it says I need to sign up to the preview, but I already have and when I go to try to add a new subscription to the preview for Azure SQL it says all my active subscriptions are on the preview.
    Any idea what the issue could be?

  • Windows 8 installation error: "We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one. For more information, see the Setup log files."

    I recently tried testing Server 2012 for installation and I had a major issue.  Windows 8 also uses the same method for installation so this should also apply to Windows 8.  I thought this might be helpful for other people who have the same
    problem.  My setup is a 1U server with no DVD drive, no hard drives, and only USB.  I have a new hard drive that I wanted to install Server onto, so I put it in and ran the installer off a thumb drive.  I kept receiving the following error when
    I tried to format the hard drive and proceed with the installation:
    "We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one. For more information, see the Setup log files."
    After hours of troubleshooting, I determined my problem was I was using a thumb drive to install it, and Windows didn't like it.  Some people had similar issues when similar devices were plugged in (i.e. external hard drives, SD cards, CF cards, etc). 
    In my case, it was the installation drive itself was a thumb drive.  I ended up digging up an external DVD drive and placed the installation onto a DVD.  Worked flawlessly.  Now I am up and running.
    I tried
    the steps here to no avail.
    Hope this helps anyone else with the same problems.

    The easy way to do this is create a copy using Windows Explorer.
    Open the project and go to File > Rename.

  • Adding New Customer Address to an Existing one

    Adding New Customer Address to an Existing one
    Hi
    We have a lot customers set up in Oracle and they only have a
    ship to address and now we would like to add the bill to address
    to these customers. Since there are a lot of customers I was

    Hi Chandu,
    1.In Infospoke -> General tab -> DataSouce(here infobject - 0BPARTNER).
    2.  Destination tab -> choose radio button(DB Table or Flat file).
    3. Goto tab infoobjects -> select required fields you want to send from left to right.
    4. Give the selection accordingly(here i think PATRNER). But it should be available in your datasouce(Infoobject-0BPARTNER), if you want to give selection on this. I didnt understad what you mean of <b>"hide"</b> in your previous reply. If this is not available in your infoobject(OBPARTNER), How CAN YOU GIVE SELECTION ON THIS attribute...?
    5. Try to add this field in Infoobject(0BPARTNER) and populate.
    6. Trnasformation tab.
       Here you can see Source Structure, Target Structure and Addin implementation.
    Source Structure - system will generate according to the field you selected in InfoObjects tab(You cant change it).
    Target Structure - You can define your own structure if you want or you can modify the generated structure. By default system generates Target Structure same as Source structure(if you want to add any more fields you can add here, but you have to populate those fields with your own coding in BAdi), Which is Addin implementation.

  • Best Practice for Creating a New WebHelp Project from an Existing One

    I'm currently working in WebHelp Pro (RH version is 9.0.2.271).
    I have a WebHelp project which currently supports the 2012 version of one of our projects. What I needed to do was to create a separate 2013 project, using the 2012 files as the starting point. I couldn't find a way in RH to create a new project by importing an existing WebHelp project, so I copied the 2012 files to a new directory, opened up the project, and renamed it.
    What prompts this question is that following this exercise, all seemed well, for a time. However, I have recently had to create new topics in the 2012 version. However, when I imported these topics to the 2013 project and compiled, they vanished--although the htm files still appear in the appropriate 2013 file folder (when viewed with Windows Explorer).
    After reading some forum postings, I thought that I might have corrupted my database by improperly creating the new project--but if what I did is the wrong way to go about it, I'm not sure what the correct way is. I will be grateful for any suggestions.

    The easy way to do this is create a copy using Windows Explorer.
    Open the project and go to File > Rename.
    Then you have your 2013 ready made project.

    Use a two steps to use a backup file to restore a database with a new name.
    ----You need to have a full backup of your database:
    --Step 1:
    RESTORE FILELISTONLY
    FROM DISK = 'C:\bk\TEST.BAK'
    --Find out the LogicalName of data file and log file
    -- in this case: the data file: TEST and the log file LogicalName: TEST_log
    --Both names will be used in the MOVE command
    --Step 2:
    -- Restore the files for test1.
    RESTORE DATABASE test1
    FROM DISK = 'C:\bk\TEST.BAK'
    WITH RECOVERY,
    MOVE 'TEST' TO 'C:\bk\test1_Data.mdf',
    MOVE 'TEST_log' TO 'C:\bk\test1_Log.ldf'

  • How do I create a new boot disk from an existing one?

    I have a G4 Quicksilver with internal PATA disk, running 10.4. I want to upgrade the internal disk from 40 GB to 160 GB. I have installed a second disk and can see it fine, but what I really want is to put the system on the new disk and have it be the one and only boot disk in the system. Is there a straightforward way to do this? Is a carbon copy cloner the way to go? Will that have problems with the different disk sizes? Will it handle bad blocks properly? Isn't there a way to just use drag-and-drop?
    Once I have made a copy, how do I make it the boot disk? Do I have to swap it into the PATA "master" position to do this?

    Cloning And Backup Tools
    A bootable clone is an exact copy of your drive which is capable of booting your computer. Making a copy of your computer which is capable of actually starting the computer requires special copying procedures. Some people just back up data files but if you have problems you have to reinstall all your operating system and all your applications. With a bootable clone you just start up from the backup drive and clone back everything.
    To copy files from one hard drive to another hard drive you can use:

  • How to copy an new user.js over an existing one in the profile

    Hello,
    i am silent deploying Firefox on many Pcs at a time.
    The Computers now have Firefox 14 on it and the people work with it well.
    I ve deployed it with setting changes in the user.js.
    Now i must deinstall the Firefox 14 and install Firefox 16 ... the firefox profile is still
    in the userprofile.
    Now i want to change silent one line in the user.js in my userprofile.... i do the new user.js in the <Programfiles/Firefox/defaults/profile> folder... but the new user.js do not copy in my userprofile and overwrite the old one...
    I am searching for an solution to add one setting in my user.js or pref.js in my old profile...
    Greeting
    Joe

    You need to create a batch file.. to copy the user.js file into the profile directory. The problem is... 1st The directory generates a random name when installed. 2nd it places a . in the directory name it creates. copy will not work.
    To get around this .. there is a simple "for" command you can place in a batch file and will do the trick. example shown below.
    set folder=%APPDATA%\mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    for /f %%i in ( ' dir /a:d/b "%folder%" ' ) do if exist "%folder%\%%i\." copy /y "C:\pathtofile\user.js" "%folder%\%%i\">nul
