Installation and creation of first database in Oracle on Solaris 5.10

hi all,
I have dug around and found that /etc/system is no longer used in solaris 10. i found that the command prctl is now envoked to setup the kernel parms.
I have solaris 10 - oracle 10g - Intel Processor.
Can anyone point me in the right direction or provide me a link to the doc I need to setup correct kernel parms in my version of solaris and to get dbca to just create an intial database. I keep getting the oracle not available, shared memory, error messages on inital dbca creation of database and I know it is because of kernel parms not being set right. I have followed the instructions found under documentation here but it gives me argument errors when issuing:
prctl -n project.max-sem-nsems -v 512 -r -i project default
All other params work fine and when I check them they show up as correct. The only doc I could find was for SPARC. I didnt know if this made a difference in setting the parms but I assume it does.
Thanks.

  • Creation of two databases in oracle 11g on linux

    HI,
    I need to create two databases in oracle 11g on linux.
    how to set SID'S in .bash_profile and change the init.ora file.
    pls anyone let me know
    thanks

    If you have different databases on same node you could choose to not set ORACLE_SID in shell init file but use instead interactive oraenv Oracle script to set the right ORACLE_SID.
    Please read Configuring the Operating System Environment Variables in http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10897/em_manage.htm#ADMQS12369

  • SQL Server 2012 installation and to default user database files to a particular path

    Hi, I am working on SQL Server 2012 installation on one of our test boxes and I would like to configure the sql server install binaries and all the system databases but for tempdb to be in my C and tempdb on a different drive and once all this is set up,
    whenever a developer creates a new database without specifying the path for the mdf & ldf files. They should be defaulted to a path like "D:/Data file" & "D:/Log file" for instance instead of being created on the C drive.
    Thanks in advance.........

    Hi,
    You can of course set default location of database through management Studio please refer below link. Once you change default location even if you do not specify location it would take default one.
    http://sqlandme.com/2013/03/18/sql-server-changing-default-database-location-for-server/
    I would advise you not to keep files on C drive let it be dedicated system drive also its quite possible that SQL server service account would not have privilege on C drive so after you move tempdb SQL server would not come online as tempdb files cannot
    be created . Tempdb is always recreated after SQL Server starts so you just need to change location once using Alter database command
    See example mentioned in below link for how to do that

  • Migrate Oracle 9i Database to Oracle 10g Solaris Platform

    Hi DBAs,
    Thank you very much all of you, you helped me in RMAN Duplicate Database, There was a problem in my backupset and now it has been resolved.
    I have now following task.
    I want to migrate Oracle 9i Database to Oracle 10g ASM, both are on Solaris platform. Please provide me step by step solution. I have very big Database about 250G Database.

    In the "Complete checklist for manual upgrades to 10gR2" is written:
    PREREQUISITES
    =============
    + Install Oracle 10g Release 2 in a new Oracle Home.
    + Install the latest available patchset from Metalink.
    + Install the latest available Critical Patch Update.
    ... so "Install the latest available Critical Patch Update" step is that for the Oracle 10g database Oracle Home or Oracle 9i database Oracle Home ? I think that is for the 10g database/ Oracle Home ...
    after applying the CPU pacht there is some "Post Installation Instructions":
    3.3.5 Post Installation Instructions which demande a connection to the database:
    3. For each database instance running out of the ORACLE_HOME being patched, connect to the database using SQL*Plus as SYSDBA and run catcpu.sql as follows:
    cd %ORACLE_HOME%\CPU\CPUJan2007
    sqlplus /nolog SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
    SQL> STARTUP
    SQL> @catcpu.sql
    SQL> QUIT
    My question is ... If I want to upgrade a 9i database to 10g and I apply this CPU before the upgrade is done (to 10g Oracle Home), how could I connect to an instance which is not present to run this script ? ... is this step mandatory or is optional ?
    Thanks,

  • Integrating and synchronizing other vendor databases with Oracle 8

    I need to integrate Oracle 8 with an Informix database in both directions (I mean from and toward Oracle); it should allow synchronous and asynchronous communication (because of different availability of databases).
    I heard about some Oracle tools (i.e. Oracle integration server, Heterogeneous services, Transparent Gateway, etc.) which ones are the best fit to and where can I find the technical documentation? Another type of solution could be better (e.g. by using databases triggers or something else)?
    All suggestions are welcome!

    Hello aymeric,
    The wonderful thing about LDAP is that it is a protocol standard
    governed by the IETF. So migrating from one server to another
    should be relatively easy. Since version 3.0.1, OID has a Meta
    Directory or as it is sometimes refered to as the Directory
    Integration server built into it which allows you to create
    custom connectors to synchronize OID with just about any type of
    data repository.
    Can you give me a specific example of what you want to migrate?
    Obviously I cannot vouch for the capabilities of other LDAP
    servers regarding this subject.
    Thanks,
    Jay

  • Downloaded the 11.0 version of Mozilla Firefox to replace old version 9.0. After installation, and on the first launch attempt, received a message: "MOZCRT.dll missing" I researched, tried the prescribed remedy below, to no avail. Please advise.

  • I have the new Oracle 8i installer and here is why

    I have been trying to get Oracle 8i on Linux and I feel that I
    must share
    my thoughts on the new Oracle installer with everybody.
    I hate the new installer. I used to run the installer from
    home over my
    128Kbps connection while I was connected to the office machines,
    because it
    was simple text based. And Oracle 8i has changed all that!
    I have nothing against GUI based installers, only when they have
    a little too
    many animated images that eat up bandwidth. I had to drive all
    the way to
    the office because I did not have sufficient bandwidth to display
    the darn
    ringing bell animated image. This is strictly the mentality of
    Windows users
    who like to work on the console of servers.
    And check this out:
    line 118 in my install log file at :
    /usr/local/oracle/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions.log
    says :
    platGroup = WINDOWS
    And this is on Linux!!! Maybe the Oracle folks are forgetting
    that Linux
    users are a little too sensitive to these kind of mistakes. :)
    This also supports my theory that the new installer is a gift
    from Windows
    programmers. Who are not too familiar with the idea of being
    able to send
    their video display to any computer around the world and work
    from there.
    A feature every Linux user takes for granted
    There are numerous other bugs in the installer and other routines
    of Oracle
    8i for Linux. Some of them I will list here:
    2. The installation types screen list 3 options:
    Typical, Minimal and Custom.
    Somehow Minimal takes more disk space (642 MB) compared to
    Typical (585 MB).
    Well that is what the installation screen says. I have not tried
    to install
    using the minimal install.
    3. The installation cant figure out how much free space is
    available on the /
    partition. Is it that hard? Its gives warnings about how I may
    not have
    enough space.
    4. dbassist cant find the cdrom if you try to install the default
    database
    from CDROM. It says cannot find CDROM even if you have all your
    stuff under
    /mnt/cdrom
    5. The docs talk about software mount points and data mount
    points /u01 /u02
    /u03 and /u04 that I created, but I could not find anywhere to
    specify them
    like I was able to, with the last release.
    6. "Oracle Protocol Support" section during the install shows no
    options at
    all. What happened to good ole Net8?
    And many others. This product is a joke.

    My sentiments exactly. There are so many bugs in the
    installation of this release that I have just about given up.
    And I haven't even started testing the new features yet!
    I've tried the install on RedHat 6.0 straight out of the box (no
    patches or updates applied) and followed the OIG and release
    notes to the letter. Clearly, no one at Oracle did the same,
    because there are many problems during install. I finally got a
    simple database running, but there are some real gotcha's along
    the way.
    Here are just a few of the bugs I've encountered:
    1. Zero length library file $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libnjni8.so.
    Netasst doesn't work without it. Someone said they posted the
    source code to the comp.databases.oracle.server newsgroup, but I
    can't find it.
    2. Database Creation Assistant thinks dbmssql.sql is called
    dbmssml.sql.
    3. Building the Intelligent Agent with TCL 7.5 causes a cascade
    of undefined references when running gmake -f ins_oemagent.mk
    agent
    4. Database Creation Assistant doesn't understand OFA. It wants
    to put all of the database files /u01/app/oracle/oradata/<sid> !
    5. Database Creation Assistant will sometimes prevent editing
    the data file names to put them in OFA compliant directories.
    I am appreciative of the free developer licenses for so many
    Oracle products, but this is the worst Oracle install I've had
    in 12 years.

  • Installation of CRM 2007 in Windows with oracle and cluster environment

    Dear Experts,
    We are about to start the installation of CRM 2007 (ABAP+JAVA) with
    Oracle 10g on Windows x64 in cluster environment. In the SAPINST dialog
    box under High availability option, I could see installation options like ASCS
    Instance, SCS Instance, First MSCS node, Database Instance, Additional
    MSCS Node, Enqueue Replication Server, Central Instance and Dialog
    Instance.
    I have gone through the installation guide. I have below queries
    regarding the same. Can you please clarify the same
    1) Our requirement is we want to have an ACTIVE-ACTIVE cluster setup
    with sap service running in Node A and Database running in Node B. Can
    we have this setup in ABAP+JAVA setup
    2) Also,in the SAPINST dialog box as said above except last two
    (Central and Dialoge instance) as per standard installation guide are
    to be installed in shared drives as per the requirement. But, central
    and dialog are said to be installed locally on any one node in MSCS or
    in separate server. As per my understanding Dialog instance will be
    used for load balancing which we do not require now. Hence I feel this
    is optional in our case. Where as Central Instance I am not able to
    understand why this option is for? Is it mandatory to be installed or optional. If
    so, when I installed it in one of the MSCS node the incase of failover
    how does it effect the system. As per my understanding ASCS and SCS
    comprise central instance.
    Please clarify and thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Sharath Babu M

    I am following as per the standard installation guide.

  • A question about Oracle installer and a possible bug in JVM

    Hello,
    I appreciate if you could kindly guide me to solve the following problem.
    I'm trying to install Oracle11g Enterprise on a Linux system (Redhat Enterprise 5.3).
    There is no X system, and therefore I chose to install by using a response file
    in silent mode. I set the parameters value as indicated in Oracle installation
    guide. Yet, when I launch the installer, it seems that there is a problem with
    java:

    [oracle@ccsaplinux0002 database]$I looked in the oracle package that I downloaded, there was no jdk or jre direcotry.
    As a result I downloaded the JDK 1.6.0_15 available on Sun microsystem web site and then
    I set manually in oracle user ~/.bash_profile the value for $JAVA_HOME.
    Why I get this error?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Slow first connection using Oracle 10g xe and Visual Studio 2008

    {noformat}
    Good day,
    I'm slightly unaccustomed to using forums, so bear with me.
    My initial connection to the Oracle database takes approximately 30 seconds. It seems to be waiting for a connection before timing out and trying another connection which works, as all subsequent connections work immediately. I'm unsure how other people's responses in forums can help me due to the plethora of configurations, so here's mine. My comprehension of the oracle world is still growing, you'll have to explain the terms you're using for me, Hoping you can help.
    I'm using Visual Studio 2008, set to use 32 bit debug mode, on a Windows 7 Pro platform. Also using Oracle 10g Xe, and have installed the 32 bit version of ODAC 11.2 (11.2.0.1) to aid making a connection from Visual Studio to Oracle.
    I have a database set up and a user with system admin rights. This is all local for a programming project and will never see the light of day outside of my personal machine.
    I am using code to connect, not the GUI. I wish to code this project completely without the aid of the GUI. so my connection string within Visual Studio C# is (pw/id hidden)...
    string xe = "Data Source=xe;User Id=xxxxx;Password=xxxxx;";
    OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(xe);
    My c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora file is this:
    # sqlnet.ora Network Configuration File: C:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
    NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP, TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT, ONAMES, HOSTNAME)
    And my c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\TNSNames.ora file is this:
    tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: C:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
    Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    XE =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = xe)
    EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <machine name)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = PLSExtProc)
    Just for good measure, my tnsping xe shows:
    "Used paramter files:<br/>
    c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora<br/><br/>
    Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias<br/>
    Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = xe)))
    OK (0 msec)"
    So, how can I make that initial connection faster so I don't spend 15 years testing my application due to slow start-ups? :)
    Thank you.
    Kevin.

    I have formatted my hard drive since my first post. I was running window 64 bit with a higher version of the ODAC and that proved to crash my machine with faulty error messages about memory. I have reverted to a previous version of the ODAC tools and everything works very smooth now. Still the connection time is consistently 20 seconds or longer on the first attempt.
    Just a little more information.. I am currently taking a college course with 15 other students, as you can tell by the impersonal machine name, where programming using visual studio 2008, and Oracle 10g xe is expected. All of us are using a 64 bit environment and we all have difficulties cutting down the load time of making the first connection to Oracle. Some people are longer making the connection, but none are shorter.
    One other note. After the first connection is made, taking 20 or more seconds, and is closed, all subsequent openings of the connection are instantaneous, for all of us.
    If there is ANYTHING more I can get for you, please let me know. With my environment stable as it is, I will not need to format or change any information for the foreseeable future.
    Here is the information you requested
    1 The connection method I am using, I have chosen the manual connection for you, however the delay exists if the connection is made through the GUI as well.
    Historically, I am getting slow connection speeds through adding the connection through the GUI or by a manual connection. Here is how I am doing it manually. I have the connection being created in 20 seconds, which is the best I can get.

    I fought for weeks about the ODAC version 11.2.0.1 that you see in the previous post, and that would be a whole new thread. Suffice it to say I have a reliable environment to program in with this 10.2.0.1.0 version that I am running now, and the connection time has not changed, it is still minimum 20 seconds load time, sometimes up to 25.

    Create folders udump,cdump,bdump within C:\oracle\admin\mynewdb\
    3)Create PFILE
    4)Create a password file using:
    C:\> orapwd file=C:\oracle\ora90\database\PWDmynewdb.ora password=oracle
    5)Create an instance of database
    C:\> oradim -new -sid mynewdb
    6)Start sqlplus:

    'Database Created' prompt display on screen.
    11) Run two scripts i.e. catalog.sql and catproc.sql
    Following are errors and queries related to database creation. :
    Errors+_
    Following error occur when start database:
    Total System Global Area 336359616 bytes

    Database mounted.
    ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced
    For start database I give following command, but it gives me same error:
    STARTUP OPEN PFILE='c:\ORACLE\ORA90\DATABASE\initmynewdb.ora'
    or
    STARTUP FORCE OPEN PFILE='c:\ORACLE\ORA90\DATABASE\initmynewdb.ora'

    STARTUP OPEN
    or
    STARTUP FORCE OPEN
    Queries_
    *1)There are one databases in my machine name "orcl"*
    when I give commands
    C:\> connect / as sysdba
    C:\> startup nomount
    When I run "connect / as sysdba", in this which database instance connect?
    how the oracle will know to start mynewdb database instance in nomount? although I am not create database.
    *2) Step "startup nomount". In this, which database started in nomount?*
    *3) There is no reference for PFILE in CREATE DATABASE script. How the oracle will know which is the PFILE for database mynewdb?*
    *4) I create password file, how the oracle will know password file for which database (in this case mynewdb database)? How to map password file with particular database?*
    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi,
    not any thing new from the already given answer. But, i hope this examples gives more clarity.
    Answers below:
    1) ORACLE_SID is the answer
    2) see the output below.
    SQL> startup nomount
    ORACLE instance started.
    Total System Global Area 61785680 bytes
    Fixed Size 730704 bytes
    Variable Size 58720256 bytes
    Database Buffers 2048000 bytes
    Redo Buffers 286720 bytes
    SQL> select instance_name from v$instance;
    INSTANCE_NAME
    mytestdB
    SQL>
    SQL> show parameter db_name
    NAME TYPE
    VALUE
    db_name string
    mytestdB
    3) Check environment variables for ORACLE_HOME variable will let you know the location of the PFILE. By default it will be ORACLE_HOME/database (windows), ORACLE_HOME/dbs (LINUX/UNIX).
    SET command will help you or use widows options.
    In some other cases, the PFILE contains the link to it with IFILE value left in PFILE which should show the location.
    4) Check environment variables for ORACLE_HOME variable will let you know the location of the password file. By default it will be expected in ORACLE_HOME/database (windows), ORACLE_HOME/dbs (LINUX/UNIX).
    Regrds,
