Installing and setting up Real Application Cluster

We installed Oracle 9i R2 and then inserted the CD of RAC. The CD did not open any front-end for installing and configuring RAC. Please let me know how to start the setup and configure RAC on Windows XP.

Maybe searching and starting manually setup on RAC-cd will work?

Real Application Cluster on Sun Solaris 8 and Sun Cluster 3

Hello,
we want to install Oracle 9i Enterprise Edition in combination with Oracle Real Application Cluster-Option on 2 Nodes. Every node (12-CPU-SMP-Machine) should running Sun Solaris 8 and Sun Cluster 3 Service.
Does this configuration work with ORAC? I found nowhere informations about. Is there anything I have to pay special attention for during installation?
Thank you for helping and best regards from Berlin/Germany

Forms and report services work fine on solaris 8.
My problem is on the client side.
I have to use solaris 8 with netscape like forms clients
and I wasn't able to make it work with java plugins.
Any solution?

Steps Installing Oracle Database 10g R2 with Real Application Cluster (RAC)

Hi,
We are using Baan ERP and back end Oracle 10g R2.Now we want to use the
Real Application Cluster technology so that if one server fail ; all of the application data remains available via another server.But i do not know how to implement RAC.
Pl guide me.
Regards,
sanjeev

stop. BAAN and Oracle will have an "implementation guide" or best practices. There is also the Oracle MAA Maximum Availability Architecture. Go Read those first.

Newbie question about Oracle Parallel Server and Real Application Cluster

I am trying to find out what kind of storage system is supported by the 9i Real Applicaton cluster. I have looked at the 8i Oracle Parallel Server which requires raw partitions and therefore NAS (network attached storage) that provides an interface at the file level will not work. Does anyone know if the 9i Real Application cluster has a similar requirement for raw partitions? any suggestions of whether SAN or other technology will be suitable? pointers to more information is appreciated.

Hi Derik,
I know this is a really broad question. No, it happens all the time! Here is a similar issue:
http://blog.tuningknife.com/2008/09/26/oracle-11g-performance-issue/
+"In the end, nothing I tried could dissuade 11g from emitting the “PARSING IN CURSOR #d+” message for each insert statement. I filed a service request with Oracle Support on this issue and they ultimately referred the issue to development as a bug. Note that Support couldn’t reproduce the slowness I was seeing, but their trace files did reflect the parsing messages I observed."+
I would:
1 - Start by examining historical SQL execution plans (stats$sql_plan or dba_hist_sql_plan). Try to isolate the exact nature of the decreased performance.
Are different indexes being used? Are you geting more full-table scans?
2 - Migrate-in your old 10g CBO statistics
3 - Confirm that all init.ora parms are identical
4 - Drill into each SQL with a different execution plan . . .
Raid 5 Don't believe that crap that all RAID-5 is evil. . . .

But at the same time, consider using the Oracle standard, RAID-10 . . .
Hope this helps . . .

What is Oracle 10g Release 2 Real Application Cluster?

Hello Guys,
I have been working in Oracle database 9i for last 2 years. Just using the simple features of oracle. Now our data have grown and company wants to enhance the database version and also want to perform load balancing at oracle's end.
Have heard a lot about Oracle RAC, but i am not sure what actually is oracle rac and its installation.
What is the difference between Oracle 10g Release 2 Enterprise Installation and Oracle 10g Release 2 Real Application Cluster installation. Are these 2 different softwares available on different CDs or RAC is only a different way to install oracle 10g database in RAC mode.
Please clerify and explain. Sorry this is a very beginner level question but i want to learn it and implement it.
Regards,
Imran Baig

What is the difference between Oracle 10g Release 2
Enterprise Installation and Oracle 10g Release 2 Real
Application Cluster installation. Are these 2Enterprise Edition is the database management software provided byu Oracle.
RAC is an extension to the Standard and Enterprise Edition to permit the same database to be managed from two or more computers. (Withe Enterprise Edition, it is an extra cost option. With Standard Edition, it is included in the price, since SE has other limitations.)
Conceptually, RAC is simple - IF you understand the difference between Instance and Database. RAC = 1 database managed by many instances
Physically, RAC requires a healthy investment in infrastructure - the infrastructure and the RAC software addresses the question: how do you get several computers able to read and write to the same disk and the same block without data corruption?
If you are serious about RAC, take a course. If you are in the US, consider http://www.psoug.org as an 'Intro to RAC' course provider.

How to configure SAP 4.7 to Oracle 9i Real Application Cluster ?

We are using SAP 4.7 running on Oracle 9i with HP-UNIX clustering.
If we change our existing SAP 4.7 for Oracle 9i Real Application Cluster, is it very complicated ?
Do we need to re-install SAP and Oracle ?

Both 4.7 and Oracle 9 are already out of support.
If you plan to use RAC then I'd first upgrade the application and the database and then implement RAC. You won't have support for your environment without additional costs.

Adobe PDF installed and set as default printer causes incorrect pagination in Excel

I have come across an interesting bug. When Adobe PDF is installed and set as the default printer, Excel produces incorrect and inconsistent pagination--in my case one of the sheets is printed to two pages wide rather than three it should be (when Adobe PDF is not installed), resulting in 9 printed pages instead of 11. I have created a test case to reproduce it.
The sample file is located here: goo.gl/ZBiWj
The test case is here: goo.gl/6KbrO
Instructions are given on how to reproduce the error. The same error occurs when printing the sample file to Adobe PDF as a printer. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Actually, the problem isn't really Acrobat or the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance at all. The problem is that Microsoft Excel as well as other Microsoft Office applications adjust their printed output based on the characteristics of whatever is chosen as the current printer. This has been an issue since the earliest days of Windows.
Each printer driver instance contains information about the specific printer including but not limited to page size, duplex capability, paper types, page orientation, output trays, imageable area (i.e., page size less unprintable margin areas), and device resolution. Based upon what Excel finds as values for a number of these characteristics, Excel will format the page differently. Excel is particularly sensitive to not only page size, but also imageable area and device resolution. Imageable area is important because Excel is attempting to avoid printing at all on parts of the page that your printer cannot possibly image; this is typically about one quarter inch around for most laser printers, a bit less for inkjet printers unless you have a printer that claims edge-to-edge print capability.
The Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance has imageable areas that exactly match page size for all available page sizes. Thus, Excel formats on the basis that it can print all the way to edge of the page unless you set margins otherwise. It also defaults to 1200dpi. Change the device resolution to another setting via printer properties and you will likely see relayout. These same issues occur with Word and to some degree with PowerPoint.
There is absolutely nothing that Adobe can do about this. The same problem is exhibited if you have access to multiple different printer models with different characteristics on your computer and you change from one to another, even if you don't have any Adobe software loaded on your system. Users have complained to Microsoft for years about this issue, but they typically have not considered this an important issue to tackle (ribbon user interfaces are obviously much more important).
Sorry, but not anything we can really do to help you here other than to advise you to always compose your Microsoft documents with the current printer being the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance, create a PDF file, and then print that from Reader/Acrobat to your real target printer. Alternatively, if you are very careful to setup the print characteristics of a spreadsheet to have large enough margins and headers/footers outside what would be the target devices non-printing area, you might get a bit better device independence - but don't count on it.

Help! Real Application Cluster!

Is there anyone who setup real application cluster on linux machine.
I wanna setup RAC( two instance on one machine ).
I don't have shared storage. Can I setup with extra ide harddisk?
Is SID same each instance on one machine?
Give me your information, please!
Thanks for your reading.
have nice day!

Hi
Cluster means MORE than one machine, so you need al least 2 machines (better 3 or more)
basic:
node1---------node2--------- OUTSIDE WORLD
oracle oracle
private IP1 private IP2
Public IP for world
Better:
node1 ---node2----entry point---OUTSIDE WORLD
oracle oracle Public IP
prvtIP1 prvIP2 cluster control
node 1... node N MUST share a space, so if you don't have an array you MUST find a network file system to share between nodes.
NFS/SAMBA don't work, because Oracle needs to mount this system as RAW, I'm trying it with LVM but I don't know if it will work.
So first create a cluster, then mount a shared space as raw. Then try Oracle.
A10!

Hardware Architecture of Real Application Cluster (RAC)

I'll implement Oracle 9i with Real Application Cluster (RAC). I now have two Sun SF280R servers.
Can I use ONE common storage to build RAC?
SF280R - Storage - SF280R
OR is it necessary to have TWO storages?
SF280R SF280R
|..........\/..........|
StorageStorage
Thanks

The whole idea behind RAC is that there is shared storage for 2 or more database instances. If one instance goes down, the other(s) seemlessly take over. RAC provides insurance against instance failures. Stand by databases (also known as data guard) provide insurance against database (the actual data files) failure.
HTH.

Install and set up Developer Enviroment

Hi, ALL:
I am a new user for ORACLE. I am going to buy a powerful PC and
install the ORACLE8 on windows 95 or LINUX for learning. But I
don't know what products I should download to install and set up
the enviroment for creating database,queries,forms and reports.
When I took my database course at school, I also did a project
using oralce. But the enviroment was set up by DBA. Now, I have
to do it by myself.
Can any help me to get start using ORACLE8? Thanks.

If you setup an "archtype" for each type of computer, PPC, Intel mainly, I think that will be enough. The amount of RAM is unimportant but must be enough to meet the specs in order to run Leopard.
The only other items might be the graphics cards, but if you get 90% of the computers running using a few archtypes, then you can do the others manually.

Since upgrading to ios5 doesnt play music from my playlists allthough songs are installed, and some of the applications are crashing

since upgrading to ios5 on my iphone4 does not play music (ipod) from my playlists allthough songs are installed, and some of the applications are crashing

Okay, mine now works here is what I did.
plug in the iPhone, iPad etc
in iTunes select the phone or iPad
Under Summary uncheck "Sync with this....."
Under "Music" uncheck the "Sync Music"
Let it remove all the songs, dont worry it will come back no problems.
Once that is all done all the music on the phone or ipad should be gone.
Now check them both back on and everything should copy back onto it.
Working now !!!!!
