Installing Oracle Database with ASM on Oracle VM for SPARC

We're installing Solaris 11 and Oracle VM for SPARC so we can install Oracle Database with ASM. There is a requirement when creating the database that the raw disk have an owner that is the same as the database. Everytime we try to change the owner it will always show that the owner is root.
Any ideas?

Hi
Please let me know from where you are allocating ASM raw disks for the guest domain.
i hope you are changing the disk permissions using chown -R
Also confirm the permission using command # ls -IL /dev/rdsk
Regards
AB

  • Cloning Oracle database with ASM --

    Hello All,
    I am new to ASM.
    We have recently migrated our 10g database into 11gASM. Now we want to clone the database to a different server. I am completely aware of the cloning a standalone database. But this is something new to me. Cloning a database which is in ASM is new to me. Please help me with the steps.
    thank you

    Nothing is there to change in the case of ASM. The normal procedure standalone database cloning applies here.
    One thing you got to rememer is the DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT. Set the ASM path in both parameters as source.

    1.When we say ASM , is it considedred as a Grid Infrastructure ASM is one component of Grid Infrastructure. You can't have ASM without it.
    2.What is ORACLE RESTART , do i really need to install it...It is also part and parcel of Grid Infrastructure - at least for a stand-alone.
    there is an entire forum dedicated to GI installation, located [url https://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=62]here

    And fwiw, if you run the GI installer, one of the options is gives is to Install Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server. Pretty painless as long as you have correctly configured your disks that will be used with ASM.

  • SQLLoader issues of Oracle RAC with ASM

    One of our client wants to use Oracle RAC with ASM for our application, i just want to know if there would be any two-phased commit transactions and SQL*Loader issues in ASM.
    Database is Oracle 10g

    ASM works only at storage layer and has nothing to do with:
    - distributed transactions
    - client executable that connects to database instance: SQL*Loader, SQL*Plus, etc.
    RAC has also nothing to do with distributed transactions: a RAC database is a single database with multiple instances but still a single database; there is no need to use distributed transactions because you have a RAC database.

  • Apply Patches on Oracle Database with Logical Standby Database

    Here I am:
    I got a primary database with a logical standby database running Oracle 11g. I got two client applications, one is the production site pointing to the primary one, another one is just a backup site pointing to the logical one.Things will only be written into the primary database every mid night and client applications can only query the database but not add, update nor delete.And now, I want to apply the latest patch on both of my databases. I am also the DNS administrator, I can make the name server pointing to the backup site instead of the production one.I want to firstly apply the patch on the logical one, and then the physical one.
    I found some reference which explains how to apply patches by adopting "Rolling Upgrade Method". however, I want to avoid doing any "switch over" mentioned in the reference because I can make use of name server. Can I just apply patches as the following way?
    1)Stop SQL apply
    2)Apply patches on logical standby database
    3)let the name server point to the backup site
    4)Apply patches on the primary database
    5)Start SQL apply
    6)Let the name server point back to the production site
    Thanks in advance.

  • Unable to connect to my Oracle Database with Microsoft's ODBC for Oracle driver

    I am unable to connect to my Oracle Database with Microsoft's ODBC for Oracle driver vers.2.573.4202.00 on a Win98 computer.
    First, I create a "Net Service Name" in order for the ODBC Driver to find the Oracle server. I then created a System DSN in the ODBC Data Source Administrator and assigned the "Net Server Name" as the server in the "Microsoft ODBC for Oracle Setup". But when I test this DSN with Oracle's provided "Oracle ODBC 32Bit Test vers.2.5.3.1.0" I get an error:
    SQLSTATE: NA000
    Native Error Code:0
    Driver Message:[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]
    This error occurred on all three Win98 computers I have tried. It does however, seem to work fine on WinNT 4.0, and believe it or not, on the two Win95 computers I have tried.
    Does anyone have any fixes, recomendations, or advice?
    Thank you,
    Eric Edwards

    Why are yu not using the Oracle ODBC driver - these can be downloaded from OTN.
    Have you set up a tnsnames.ora entry for the Oracle database you want to connect to? Does this name have a domain name added to it? Check %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\tnsnames.ora for the service name. If it is a name of the form :
    name.domain.subdomain
    then you should try using this full name when configuring the ODBC data source.

    Thanks, Kuassi

    Hi Kuassi,
    Thanks for letting us know that your book is available. I have been following one of your articles about "Virtualize Your Oracle Database with Web Services". More specifically "The Database as Web Services Consumer". I think that this is an area that has in the past been under estimated as to the potential benefits.
    I am currently trying to develop a solution that consumes several interfaces with a couple of them being published web services, so an ideal solution. I have then spent the last three weeks having to read up about the architecture of Java in the database, Jpublisher and make sense of how it all works together.
    I have got very close to getting one of the web services to work but failed due to using 10gR2 where all the java & libraries has moved to version 1.5. The solution is to load the jdk1.4.2 and configure jpublisher to use this. So far so good except this is not available on some platforms, Windows - 64 bit (not itanium).
    The configuration is proving very challenging but will hopefully reap rewards.
    (Thought I would give you some background to my experience).
    Anyway my question to you is having looked at Jdeveloper it appears to do almost anything except consume services into the database, also with Java now being at version 1.5 outside the database for 10gR2 and supporting 1.4 inside, do you see some alignment of these in future database releases?
    Finally off to buy your book now as no doubt there is a huge amount more to learn.
    Kind Regards

  • Can you access non-Oracle database with HTML DB?

    Can you access non-Oracle database with HTML DB? If not, will this be possible in the future?
    I realize HTML DB is not an open-source product. However, it is necessary sometimes to get non-Oracle database info. JDeveloper supports this. It does not appear to me that HTML DB does. This is a major drawback to it being a product for more potential applications that rely on other database technology such as MySQL, etc.
    If it is possible, is this brain surgery to do it. HTML DB offers fast simplified development and it would be good if it was built in. Does anyone know of an example of accessing non-Oracle database that is available?

    12282,
    In general, HTML DB gives you access to Oracle database facilities. These include heterogeneous services. Please search this forum for keyword "heterogeneous" and you can follow the threads that interest you.
    As for the comparison with brain surgery, I'd rank them about the same in terms of raw thrill.

  • Configuring New Oracle Database with HFM Shared Services

    Hi,
    We have upgrated the oracle database to new version 11g. We are using HFM 11.1.1.3 version. When I tried to configure the new oracle database with existing HFM Shared Services, the EPM Configurator hangs. Please could you clarify the below few questions before start configuring the database.
    1. Do we want edit any properties or configuration files before starting the EPM Configurator?
    2. If we want to edit the reg.properties file, what is the password denotes in reg.properties file(Below is the structure of the reg.properties file)? Whether I need to give Oracle database schema password?
    jdbc.url=jdbc\:hyperion\:oracle\://xxxxx;
    password=?
    jdbc.driver=hyperion.jdbc.oracle.OracleDriver
    local.value=####
    username=schemaname
    Thanks,
    Aravindh K

    Is it a new database server you are trying to configure? As if it was just upgraded then you shouldnt need to do anything.
    If it is a new database server then have a read of the following doc in Oracle Support - "How To Change Shared Services Database Repository in EPM 11 [ID 976279.1]"
    Cheers

  • How to create database with ASM

    HI
    How to create database with ASM?
    I install vmware workstation on window XP .On virtual machine install Linux 5 enterprise (Oracle) install.
    I install oracle DB software only. Also make 3 disk for ASM .
    1 -- When I want to install oracle DB with ASM . In this process candidate disks not show . Why?
    How I can see disks ..
    so I simple install oracle DB software only.
    2 -- Now I want to create database with ASM by DBCA .
    What process I will follow ?
    Please guide me
    Thanks

    Hi
    Steps to create database with ASM.
    1.Install oracle binary with active CRS(For single node installation CRS is activated when you run root.sh) .
    2.Create disk without file ssytem.
    3.Assign disk to raw .
    4.Change owner and permission to raw devices.
    5.Configure ASM manually or USing DBCA.
    Manually ASM Configuration.
    a.Create initialization parameter file and password file.
    b.Mandatory parameter is "instance_type=asm" as per your need configure rest of parameter like db_cache_size,large_pool_size,processes,remote_login_passwordfile,shared_pool_size etc..
    c.To discover disk configure "asm_diskstring=/dev/raw/raw*"
    Using DBCA to configure ASM.
    1.In storage type section choose ASM.It will ask for password of sysdba in 10g.
    2.ASM configuration window will open -> here it create disk group -> it shows all available ASM candidate disk automatical -> choose normal redundancy,external redundancy or high redundancy.
    ASM disk also can be conbfigured with ASMLIB .
    If ASM disk is configured you can start asm instance in nomount state and query to v$asm_disk to see all candidate disk.V$asm_disk only shows disk which is configured in asm_diskstrings.
    Hope this will help U,
    Tinku
