Installing Oracle software through Sunworkstation

We have bought new sun workstaions running solaris8 on them. But 90% of out servers are IBM AIX. Management bought these workstation as they were cheap. and also make life easier for dba's during installtions. As no of CD's gone up from 2 to 3. But is there way install software from these sunwork workstions on AIX servers. As last guy who did this did not document the procedure. This would be a great help, if some answers the above questions.
Thanks a lot
Phanindra

The Oracle on the IBM systems will not run on the sun workstations. The next thing your management needs to do is buy licenses for the Oracle products you want to load onto your workstations. Help them out by telling them if you want 32-bit or 64-bit software. Then you either order CD Packs for the software you want http://oraclestore.oracle.com/ (mine came in 2 days) or download them from otn.oracle.com.

Error in installing Oracle Software while adding node in RAC

Hi All
Oracle Version: 11.1.0.6.0
Linux
In the RAC environment, I am in the process of adding a node to the existing rac environment.
I have succssfully installed cluster software in the new node. all gsd, ons and vip services are running perfectly for new node in the existing and new nodes.
Next step, I started installing oracle software by executing the script $ORACLE_HOME/oui/bin/addNode.sh.
Here after specifying the the new node information (public host, private host and vip details) and when I pressed next,
OUI is giving following error - "Error occured while retrieving node numbers of the existing nodes. Please check if clusterware home is properly configured".
I ran olsnodes -n, it is giving proper node number.
Can somebody help me in identifying the problem and solution.
Thanks

I am hitting the same issue, my problem was when I added the new node initially it fails because of the hint8-priv1. I followed the link below to remove and cleanup the last install. olsnode show only my existing nodes NOT including the new node.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B12037_01/rac.101/b10765/adddel.htm
then I ran
./addNode.sh -silent CLUSTER_NEW_NODES={hint-8} CLUSTER_NEW_PRIVATE_NODE_NAMES={hint8-priv1} CLUSTER_NEW_VIRTUAL_HOSTNAMES={hint8-vip}
I am getting this when use command line:
Error ocurred while retrieving node numbers of the existing nodes. Please check if clusterware home is properly configured.
SEVERE:Error ocurred while retrieving node numbers of the existing nodes. Please check if clusterware home is properly configured.
also run addNode.sh via GUI, the new node name still listed and can't continue.
BTW, adding new node should support online, shutdown is not required

Who will install ORACLE software on linux production environment?

Hi Friends,
there is a doubt for me on ORACLE software installation. i.e. who will install ORACLE software on linux production environment. either system admin or else ORACLE DBA.
If DBA means, whether system admin will share the oracle root password.,
If SYS admin means how DBA parameters during installation.

Since every version of Oracle available now (except 11.2) needs patches, a new installation should not create the database right away. Therefore, a software-only install is the most reasonable thing to do. And if no DB configuration parameters are required at s/w-only time, then it makes somewhat sense for the SysAdmin to do the install.
Therefore, it makes sense to me that the two groups (DBA and SA) might want to work ... together. (ROFLMAO)

- use the machine ip/name and the earlyer given password

Solaris 8 in ultra 2 got panic and auto reboot when install Oracle software

Dear all,
I installed Solaris 8 by selecting 'Entire Solaris Software Group' and select 32 bit support only in an old ultra II machine. Then I tried to install Oracle 8.1.7 in the same machine but machine always got panic and started auto reboot when Oracle installed about 17% or 20% or even 70% (I tried install the minimum of Oracle).
What is the problem? Anyone can help?
Thanks in advance,
Vicky

I think you need to check the parameters like SHMMAX etc in /etc/system file as recommanded by oracle if not already added you need to add them .Oracle manuals have a list of these parameters and don't forget to reboot and boot with boot -r after adding these parameters.
Make sure you have sufficient memory or some patch recommanded by Oracle .

Cannot download and install printer software through app store for OS 10.8.5?

Help!
I have a MBP 15" Bought in late 2012. It is running 10.8.5.
I am trying to connect to the printer at my office, an HP CM4730 MFP.
When I go through the steps to add a new printer, I get to the message:
"Software for this printer is available from Apple. Would you like to download and install it?"
I click on 'Download and Install" and the systems startes to search for the software, however, every time i get the following message:
Setting up ‘HP Color LaserJet CM4730 MFP [15A0C9]…’
Can't install the software for the Hewlett-Packard HP Color LaserJet CM4730 MFP because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
Can anyone out there point me in the right direction to get this installed.
Thanks!

Which account use to install Oracle software?

Hi!
Windows 2003 Server SP2
Oracle 10gR2
I have a question to experience Oracle database administrators...
Is there any differences between installing RDBMS from "Administrator" account and installing RDBMS from separate account with administrators privilege?
I'm not asking about procedures of installation.
I suspect that creator in file system will be different.
There will be any other differences? In registry hive? In files of installed software?
If Oracle software will be installed from "Administrator" account and after that I will create "other" account with administrator privilage and member of "ora_dba" group and use this "other" account to managed installed software I will have any problems?
Thanks for any advice.

Hello,
No, I've always installed Oracle with an "Administrator account" and, I don't remember
having a specific problem.
Anyway, if there's a problem which can prevent the installation, OUI will send you a
popup (for instance to stop a Service).
More over, you can check the installation "logs" also.
Best regards,
Jean-Valentin

Determing if the installed Oracle software is 32 bit or 64bit

DB version:10GR2
Is there a way to determine if the Oracle software installed is of 32-bit or 64-bit? I found
this
select
   length(addr)*4 || '-bits' word_length
from
   v$process
where
   ROWNUM =1;from: http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_32_bit_64_bit_check.htm
But is this correct?

You can see it just entering Sql*Plus :

Installing Oracle Agent through Grid Control!

Hi,
Can we install oracle agent on Solaris through Grid control which is located on Linux?
Thanks
Azam

before you can use the agents (the deployment will succeed) you need to apply 2 patches on OMS home.
Check metalink note: How to Deploy the Latest Database Plugin to the OMS and the Agent in 12C Cloud Control [ID 1388143.1]
it explains how you can apply the prerequisite patches and deploy the agents for Solaris and AIX (the current available agents).

How canI check the architecture of the installed Oracle software?

Is there a way to check whether I have 32bit or 64bit version of Oracle software from within Oracle?
I want to script in a check to see if the current Oracle Home where this database is running is either 32-bit or 64-bit. It is not good enough to check OS architecture, as some systems I manage have 64-bit OS but a combination of 32-bit and 64-bit Oracle Homes.
I looked at v$parameter and could not find anything directly. SELECT platform_name FROM v$database does show architecture, but this only works on 10g and possibly 9i. On 8i, I cannot find any similar columns.
select * from v$version also shows if a system is 64-bit or not (32-bit shows no string in banner to indicate 32-bit)
But both the above methods are a bit vague: I do not know if they are simply greping the architecture from the OS or if they are examing the oracle binary?

Onto the database, check v$session, if saddr columns is raw(4), then db is 32bit (4*8), if it is raw(8), db is 64bits (8*8).

Error in GetCurrentDir(): 13 when installing oracle 10g software

Hi Basis Expert,
We are doing an Mock System Upgrade.
So now we are installing
Before upgrade
BW 3.5 with oracle 10g (10.2.0.4)
After upgrade
BI 7.0 with oracle 11g (11.2.0.4)
When installing the Oracle 10g software we are getting an error
Error in GetCurrentDir(): 13
Error in GetCurrentDir(): 13
Error in GetCurrentDir(): 13

Our OS is AIX 5.3
Please help us in fixing this issue

[While Installing Oracle software facing "Error in GetCurrentDir(): 13" [ID 378393.1]|https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&id=378393.1]
Solution
In order to get rid of this problem, please check for the following.
1. You are logged in as the oracle user and group which owns the oraInventory (if this is not the first install on this system)
2. You have read/execute permissions on the source files/directories (CD-ROMor CD-ROM image)
3. You have write permissions on the target directory (ORACLE_HOME)
4. When the target filesystem for ORACLE_HOME is unmounted the directory for the mount point has rwx permissions for the oracle user
If this is the first Oracle software to be installed on this system you can ignore item 1 as it will create a new oraInventory with the correct permissions. For item 4, unmount the filesystem and "chmod 777" the directory used for the mount point, then remount the filesystem. Item 4 is actually a somewhat frequent issue on AIX.
If none of the above solves your problem, the only alternative left would be, to copy the Staging directory (Disk1 of Install) to /tmp directory and proceed with the installation.

Installing Oracle 11gR2 Standard Edition on WINDOWS Server 2008R2 with ASM

Hi,
I want to setup Oracle 11g DB (11.2.0.2) Standard Edition on Windows Server 2008R2 x64 bit with ASM Instance. I would appreciate if you could suggest me with the following little but important questions.
The following link from Oracle doesnt have 11.2.0.2 db version for windows x64 bit. Do a patch (which I think is a complete installation) is needed to install after installing 11.2.0.1? or I can directly install 11.2.0.2?
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html
Secondly, I have no such experience regarding installing and setting up ASM Instance on windows. How many disks or etc is needed for ASM (as ASM disks). One of the admin guy said, he has 6 disks (2 for OS and 6 you can use for Oracle or ASM so so). Could you please suggest, how should I divide the disk partitions of what should I say no idea :(
Also, do ASM instance (diskgroups,disks) should be setup before creating DB (through dbca?)
I was thinking like:
- Installing Oracle software
- Creating ASM disks,diskgroups,instance,etc
- Creating DB (using dbca?), isnt' it?
Bundle of thanks in advance.
Best Regards
