Installing one APEX for multiple databases servers.

Hello, everyone.
I'm new on this world of Oracle solutions, and I would like
very much your help.
Here in my company I have five database servers, and I want to install
the Oracle Apex in a way that I only need access one webpage and have
the possibility to edit all the database.
For instance:
Imagine that I have five machines and each one has a instance of one database.
I would instal the Apex on each machine. But I would like to open the Apex on
my browser only once, and have the capability to work with all databases.
It would be like the Apex had a scrollbar and I could choose wich database to work.
Is that possible? If it is, could be done with XML DB server? What is the best HTTP server to use in this case?
Thanks for your attention.
Sorry if I wasn't clear, I'm new and I'm learning.
Regards, Leandro R. de Freitas.

Hi,
as you describe this, it is not possible. An Apex instance is installed in an Oracle instance and is as a result is tied very closely to that instance.
That being said, it is still possible to access data in different database instances from a seperate database by the use of database links, though this is can be a little complicated and not always desirable from a performance point of view. Whether this is desirable in your instance depends on the architecture of your applications.
For example, if your 5 different instances are part of one distributed application, it may be desirable to install Apex in one instance that may be termed the master instance and have it access data from the other instances via database links, which should already exist in a distributed application.
On the other hand, if your applications are quite distinct, then I would see it as desirable to have seperate installations of Apex in each instance. This would enable different release cycles and versioning if required, lead towards better performance and avoid single point of failure. If you need a united front end to these applications then you could maybe create a gateway application on one of the Apex instances, though how you deal with sign on would depend on your architecture eg Single Sign on vs LDAP etc. You could simply create an HTML page somewhere on your intranet that points to these applications and then let each application deal with sign on.
I hope this helps.

APEX for multiple databases

Can I install APEX in one database and use it to connect and develop applications for other databases in network.

The two issues that I have run into with running an ApEx application in one database against data in another database is dealing with sequences and LOBs.
If you use a database link which does not specify a user name and password to get a sequence value from a remote database in an ApEx application you get the following type of error:
failed to parse SQL query:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
ORA-02063: preceding line from ...Since the sequence is stored in the other database and ApEx runs in the PL/SQL engine because of the engine's security, you have to use a database link with a user name and password in it like:
CREATE DATABASE LINK db_link CONNECT TO you_username IDENTIFIED BY your_password USING your_remote_db;
SELECT your_sequence.NEXTVAL@db_link FROM DUAL;Accessing LOB columns in your remote database cannot be done via a SELECT statement. You have to use an INSERT statement. I have my solution to this on my blog.

Use 1 listener for multiple database in a server

hi guys,
just want to check whether this is the right way to configure my Listener.ORA . I am using 1 listener.ora to listen for incoming request connection from remote client. There are multiple databases installed in a server.
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ora03)(PORT = 1521))
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = O11R2)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1)
(SID_NAME = O11R2)
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = O10G)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1)
(SID_NAME = O10G)
)sorry i am reading about it so did not install another database to test out. Just thinking in the line that it mention that the list of SID is refering to the multiple database that is installed in a server and i am using 1 listener.
Please further advice.

)Please use as above. You can have one listener for multiple databases.right right so it the pattern goes like this:
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
     (SID_LIST =
          (SID_DESC =
          (GLOBAL_DBNAME = AAAA)
          (ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1)
          (SID_NAME = AAAA)
          (SID_DESC =
          (GLOBAL_DBNAME = BBBB)
          (ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1)
          (SID_NAME = BBBB)
     )thanks !

Can i install itunes multiple times on one computer for multiple users?

Can i install itunes multiple times on one computer for multiple users?

Like most applications you only need to install it once for it to be available to all users. (That said it is possible to install an application and only make it available to the current user, but that's rarely needed.)

Can i create more than one instance for single database?

HI
anybody can tell me how to create more than one instance for single database(without using RAC)?
thanks
Kalanidhi

Anandji,
I sometimes think differently. I also think like what this person is asking..(although I have installed and administering 5 different RAC databases)
The main doubt of mine is that we create multiple instances accessing the same storage area.
Anyway the controlfiles of all instances will have the same information except the instance_names and instance id's.
Hence I always think , why can't it be possible to to create another instance in the same system and point it to a controlfile which is copied from the other instance.
Why can't the same files be shared between the two instances in a same system ?
I know I am thinking a little bit confusing...
Anyway I need to test that also...

Multiple Database Servers Question

Hi,
Please forgive this ignorant question, but can someone tell
me how one would go about using multiple database servers?
Just as there comes a time where one would need more than
one web server and would need to use a load balancing
solution, what happens when one would need more than one
Database Server?
How does one go about implementing that solution?
Is there some way to have two database servers carrying the
same information with some kind of load balancing solution
in front of it(?) or does one place some tables on one
Database
server, and other tables on the other database server?
(I have no clue as to how things would work.)
Thanks in advance,
Joe

Microsoft SQL allows for clustering of SQL databases, so for
instance two servers connected to a fileshare and a virtual address
shared across the two physical boxes. Database connections are made
to the virtual addres which will then be handled by the active
node. Becuase a database is ultimately a file(s) on a disk it can
only be attached to one node at a time so you end up with an
active/inactive cluster.

NT startup parmaters for multiple weblogic servers started as a service

I have the need to start multiple weblogic servers, using NT services.
I have created a second folder with a properties file listening on another
port.
I am using the following startup parameter
-J-Dweblogic.system.name=Test
My question, this works when I type the startup parameter, is their anyway
to have this automatically entered
on server startup.
Is their a registry setting to make this permanent
Thanks

The answer is...
- Use a product to turn applications into an NT Service (e.g.
ServiceMill)
- Directly run the Weblogic Server Java class via that application
--> As many WLs on one machine as you like.
Send mail if you need specific details.
Best regards

Conversation: NT startup parmaters for multiple weblogic servers started
as a service
Subject: Re: NT startup parmaters for multiple weblogic servers started
as a service
I wish that was the case.
The problem is, while you enter the startup parameter once, it only
is good for that startup of the weblogic server,
The next time the server reboots and the services start, unless you
re-enter the startup parameter -J-Dweblogic.system.name=Foldername
The weblogic server starts using the wrong properties file.
Is their anyway using NT services to have the correct instance of WL
to start everytime.
I have checked this newsgroup and this question has been posted
before, but so far no one seems to have the answer.
I know in a production eniviorment someone must be running more that
one instance of a WL server as a service, Hopefully their is an
answer on how this is done.
Thank you

Hi ,
Yes , We can create one delivery for multiple PO's .
Go to VL10D tcode --> Purchase order tab -- > enter the STO's and press execute
Select the STO's and click on background tab. Then it creates the log
Select the item again and press shift +F4
It will gives the log inforamation for the STO's and select the item and press on documents tab.
It will creates only one Delivery for all the STO's.
Now go to VL02N tcode and enter the delivery number then goto picking tab then enter picking qnty = delivery qnty
then press on " post goods issue "
Now go to MIGO to do the goods reciept then enter all the STO's here and check the item then save .
Only one document will be posted for all the STO's

One inventory for multiple ORACLE_HOMEs ?

RDBMS version:11.2, 10.2
Platform : AIX
In one server , we are going to install multiple ORACLE_HOMEs (both 10.2 and 11.2). I have been asked to configure separate inventory for each ORACLE_HOME (each inventory within its own ORACLE_HOME). But i came across OTN posts which advices one inventory for all ORACLE_HOMEs .
1. How can i create 1 inventory for all ORACLE_HOMEs . Is it by specifying an inventory directory outside all ORACLE_HOMEs in OUI when you do the very first installation ?
2. Which one is more professional : one inventory for each ORACLE_HOME or one inventory for all ORACLE_HOMEs ?

When installing Oracle software for the first time, the OUI will create a "global" inventory under $ORACLE_BASE.
Depending on you OS, to locate this inventory look at "/etc/oraInst.loc" (AIX+Others) or "/var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc" (Linux+others).
You can add/remove Oracle homes from this inventory by using OUI or command line ./runInstaller.
Each Oracle home may also contain an "$ORACLE_HOME/oraInst.loc" file.
HTH
PS: +"One inventory for multiple ORACLE_HOME is a bad practice"+ -- Untrue. Perhaps only for those that don't know how to use it.
:p

No. If its transactions across multiple databases you should use different datasources.

Backup Status for Multiple SQl Servers.

Hi All,
What changes are required in the below script - so that it displays the backup result for
multiple SQL SERVERS.
--Databases with data backup over 24 hours old
SELECT
   CONVERT(CHAR(100), SERVERPROPERTY('Servername')) AS Server,
   msdb.dbo.backupset.database_name,
   MAX(msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_finish_date) AS last_db_backup_date,
   DATEDIFF(hh, MAX(msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_finish_date), GETDATE()) AS [Backup Age (Hours)]
FROM    msdb.dbo.backupset
WHERE     msdb.dbo.backupset.type = 'D'
GROUP BY msdb.dbo.backupset.database_name
HAVING      (MAX(msdb.dbo.backupset.backup_finish_date) < DATEADD(hh, - 24, GETDATE()))
UNION
--Databases without any backup history
SELECT
   CONVERT(CHAR(100), SERVERPROPERTY('Servername')) AS Server,
   master.dbo.sysdatabases.NAME AS database_name,
   NULL AS [Last Data Backup Date],
   9999 AS [Backup Age (Hours)]
FROM
   master.dbo.sysdatabases LEFT JOIN msdb.dbo.backupset
       ON master.dbo.sysdatabases.name  = msdb.dbo.backupset.database_name
WHERE msdb.dbo.backupset.database_name IS NULL AND master.dbo.sysdatabases.name <> 'tempdb'

One TPV for multiple Countries

Hi Experts,
Could you pls share experirnce/knowledge around having one TPV for multiple countries together. The scenario is like below:
1. There are mutiple Countries in Central America which are small islands for whom we need to roll out the Travel and Expense Solution.
2. The Company code is only one which contains employees from all these Countries.
Could you tell us how can we do the setup. Should we create one TPV at the company code level. OR should we rather use some other criteria for selecting the TPV maybe at the Personnel area or Personnel Sub Area level.
Your help is much appreciated.
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Kiron,
These things I am aware about too. My real question is if I create only one TPV for the company code and assign the Country of the Company code then what issues would this cause. To name a few pls see below.
1) The domestic Country would always be the Company code Country so would be treated as Domestic Country and show on the Form also as domestic Country even for the employees who are from other Countries.
2) There are setting which SAP allows differently for Domestic and International like per diem, miles cumulations. So these necessarily have to be kept as same even though local laws are different in all these countries as Domestic is only the Company code Country.
So I need detailed analysis of what impact I will have by having only one TPV as against making many TPV like one for each Country by using some other parameter like Personnel area/Personnel sub area etc.
Appreciate your help!
Regards,
Vijay
