Install Oracle Clusterware/RAC Windows x32bit or Windows 64bit ?
Hi,
What is your suggestion to install Oracle Clusterware RAC on Windows.
Why choose Windows 32 bit ?
Why choose Windows 64 bit?
What are the advantages and disadvantages?
Hi,
I definitely recommend 64bit Windows, the principal reason is memory addressing limitation.
In my standpoint do not exist benefits to use Windows 32bit with Oracle Clusterware/RAC.
32-bit processors have address registers that are 32-bits wide (can address up to 4GB physical RAM).
You can to use a workaround by enabling the addressing of more than 4GBytes using parameters in Windows (AWE/PAE). But if I want to use more than 4Gbytes, I'll go to Windows 64bit.
The 4GB addressable space per process is divided into system and user space. By default, the system space is 2GB and the private user space is 2GB. Each user process shares the same 2GB System address space.
The services of the Clusterware, ASM and Listener will consume at least 1Gbyte of memory initially.
If you create an instance to to use 1Gbytes and you have 50 connections you will have problems with connections to the database raising the following error.
TNS-00510: Internal limit restriction exceeded
32-bit Windows Error: 8: Exec format error
TNS-00507: Connection closed
32-bit Windows Error: 109: Unknown errorReason: Problems of memory usage. i.e. Out of Memory.
Another point:
With Windows 32-bit using Clusterware/RAC 11.1 you can set Automatic Memory Management(AMM) feature (MEMORY_TARGET) but you cannot use if you create 2 Instances on same Host.
Check this note..
*ORA-27102, OSD-00031 Unable To Extend Memory_max_target And Memory_target Past 2GB [ID 842881.1]*
Oracle Solution: Please install the 64-bit OS on 64-bit server, hence there is no memory limitations
I belive that is reason wich Oracle not support Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11.2 on Windows 32-bit. You cannot use ASM 11.2 on Windows 32-bit.
Definitely do not exist reason for me to to use Windows 32bit to support Oracle Clusterware.
There are lot services involved wich require memory and a big limitation of memory on 32-bit.
At present all latest CPUs support 64bit. Then install Oracle Clusterware/RAC x64, even when you are use less than 4GBytes memory, you only have benefits.
Benefits of Use 64-bit are:
64-bit versions of Windows have implemented up to 16 terabytes of virtual address space
64-bit programs use the 16 terabyte tuning model (8TB user / 8TB kernel)
No performance penalties for large memory
Unlimited user connectivity
64-bit Windows versions allow addressing of large physical memory sizes without using PAE
*Windows Memory Configuration: 32-bit and 64-bit [ID 873752.1]*
This document gives a better understanding of my perspective.

How can i create/install oracle 10 rac on my single windows machine
can anyone help me to step by step install oracle 10g rac(rac environment) on my single window machine.
if its not possible then y ?
thxsVmware is available for both Windows & Linux.
Secondly you have to decide whether you want the guest OS (OS on which you would configure RAC) to be Windows or Linux ?
And before everything, check your PC configuration. As Tim mentions in those articles, to run this setup, you need lots of RAM n power.
Perhaps 4 GB of RAM and Core 2 Duo 2 Ghz + processor. If you are not having an appropriate configuration, it may not even run properly or your might hit memory dump errors on host OS.

Install Oracle Clusterware 10201 in window 2003 server
Good Morning All,
We have a network interface in database server which is used for communication between primary database and standby database (i.e. transfer archive or online log files from primary db to standby db). My question is: when we install Oracle clusterware should I use this NIC as “Private” or “Do not use”?
Thanks a lot in advance and have a nice weekend!!
ShirleyThank you Hans.
In the db server we have 4 NICs. One public and 3 private. We are thinking use 1 public and 2 private for clusterware. And the last private network card is just for communication between primary DB and standby DB. In this case, the best practice should be consider this last card as 'Do not use' rather than 'private', is this correct? -
Install oracle 10.2.0.5 on windows 7 32 bits
Hi all ,
I want to install oracle 10.2.0.5 on windows 7 (32bits) but in the websit I found <B>"Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.5) Enterprise/Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows (64-bit Itanium)" [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/10201winsoft64-090455.html] </B>, and in the documentation I found : <B>"Oracle Database and Oracle Database Client 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.5 or later) are supported on Windows 7 (32-bit and x64)."</B>.
Could you please tell me whether this oracle client for win 7 32bits or give me the link wher I can download oracle for win 7 32bits.
Many thanks,10.2.0.5 is a patchset that you will need to download from My Oracle Support. You will need a valid CSI with Oracle for you to download the patch. I suggest you to install the 11gR2 Client on Windows 7.
Can you please tell me which version of Oracle Server will you be interacting with using the 10.2.0.5 Client. -

Installing Oracle Discoverer Reports 4.1 in Windows Vista
Hi Guys............Greetings...
Can we install Oracle Discoverer Reports 4.1 in Windows Vista?
If not any patch available to install the same in WInsows VISTA?
Thanks in advance.
Dave SureshGo to metalink
Click on the Certify tab
Click on the second link "View certification by Platform"
If it isn't there then it is not certified.
That is the answer to the question you asked.
My advice is still that you get a decent operating system: Certified or not. -
How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS
How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS. Already installed oracle Database 10g in my notebook.
It is working good.
please help me this issue.
please give the steps..............
Thanks
RajeevHello Frank,
for development, you need to install Oracle Developer
Suite 10g. This includes Forms and Reports.this topic interests me too, because I've downloaded Developer Suite and Database (both for 10g) from Oracle website, installed them, but I couldn't connect to a database.
What should be done for me to create a database link and be able to connect locally, in my personal Desktop computer? (Not to a server)
Once it was told me here that I should download 10g Database - I did it, and installed it, but it didn't work. Later, some of my job partners said I should install them in a sequence - that is, 1st the Developer, and 2nd the Database. But it has failed too. And I don't know how to configure a database connection.
Best regards, -

Installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC Problem: ASM disks
Folks,
Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer and according to the tutorial
http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
At the first time, I create VM rac1. While its OS Oracle Linux 5.6 is booting, initializing ASMLib Driver OK. I create 5 ASM disks successfully using the command:
[root@rac1 /]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk ASMDISK1 /dev/sdb1
Output: Marking disk "ASMDISK1" as an ASM disk: OK
Because the hard disk space of rac1 is not enough to install Database, I create VM rac1 again with bigger hard disk space (30GB). I do everything the same with that at the first time. But this time, While OS Oracle Linux 5.6 is booting, initializing ASMLib Driver failed. I create 5 ASM disks using the same command:
[root@rac1 /]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk ASMDISK1 /dev/sdb1
Output: Marking disk "ASMDISK1" as an ASM disk: failed
But when I use the command:
[root@rac1 /]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm listdisks
Output: ASMDISK1 ASMDISK2 ASMDISK3 ASMDISK4 ASMDISK5
My questions are:
First, can the 5 disks "ASMDISK1 ASMDISK2 ASMDISK3 ASMDISK4 ASMDISK5" be used correctly in spite of Marking disk "ASMDISK1(2 3 4 5)" as an ASM disk failed ?
Second, how to fix OS Oracle Linux 5.6 so that initializing ASMLib Driver OK while booting ?
Thanks.Folks,
Hello. The issue is solved by myself. Thanks. -
Installing Oracle Clusterware and TimesTen
I am attempting to setup TimesTen with Oracle Clusterware and this website "Installing Oracle Clusterware and TimesTen" says that I should "Install Oracle Clusterware 11.2.0.2" however, when I go and look for I found this page: "Oracle Grid Infrastructure Downloads" however as you can see from that page it does not have version 11.2.0.2.
Does anyone know where I can get Clusterware 11.2.0.2?
Would version 12.1.0.1.0 work for me?
Thanks,
VictorThanks for the info on 12.1.0.1.0 :-(
If you look at eDelivery 11.2.0.2 is not available. I guess I will have to go with setting TimesTen setup without the Grid Infrastructure (i.e. use these instructions instead - "Active Standby Pair with TimesTen In-Memory Database")

Q) Can Oracle 11g Release 2 RAC be installed on Solaris (x86)??yes, you can Install it on Solaris X86
Q) Can the links of Oracle RAC installation over Unix and Linux be taken as base?? As i haven't seen any doc for installing 11g RAC on Solaris, where as it was provided in Oracle 10g.yes, you need to consider Oracle RAC installation over Unix and Linux be taken as base as base document.
