Installing Oracle9i Database on Windows 2003 Cluster

Can anyone tell me if there are any additional steps needed to install an Oracle DB on a Windows 2003 cluster besides just running the installation and taking the defaults? I was hoping that the software would be cluster aware but it doesn't appear that it is.

Okay,
I have gotten a little further with this. I have my 2 node active/passive windows cluster installed and working. I also install Oracle Fail Safe and have it setup and working. I then install my Oracle9i database on node 1 using a local disk for the home directory and the DB/logs files etc on shared disk (SAN back end). I then mirrored the install on my 2nd node using the same home name and location on a local disk. What other steps do I need to take to verify that my new Oracle database will function correctly should a node fail and fail over occur. I am not familiar with any of this at all and am just trying to get to a point where I have my DB installed and working correctly within the cluster before I hand this of to another person. I guess what I am saying is I need to make sure my new DB is cluster aware and will fail over correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Install Oracle 10g on Windows 2003 Server cluster (MSCS)

Hi all
How do I install Oracle 10g on Windows 2000 cluster (MSCS installed)?
I have a 2-nodes Microsoft windows 2003 server cluster and I want to install Oracle 10g,
Do I folloow this order:
1. Install the software on both without the database
2. Create the database from the first node
in this case, The second node can see the database as it is available?,
and what about the IP adresses?
If you can point me to some documentation, or help in any way, I would appreciate it.
Thanks for any help.

Read here...
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/A96685_01/intro.htm
>>
Oracle Fail Safe comprises multiple components: Oracle Fail Safe Manager, Oracle Services for MSCS, and server components specific to Oracle Fail Safe.
>>
So I don't know how you can achieve this without Fail Safe.
There might be other link which I cannot find right now.

Install Oracle VM on WIndows 2003 Sevser/XP/Vista

Has any one successfully installed Oracle VM on WIndows 2003 Server or XP or Vista?
Is it possible to migrate an exisitng Oracle Express Edition database to Oracle VM? Or the Oracle Express Edition has to be installed on Oracle VM on one platform before it is portable to another machine/server.
Is there any viewlet on how to use Oracle VM?

To answer your first question: Oracle VM Server can NOT be installed on Windows.
From the OVM-FAQ:
Does Oracle VM require a host operating system?
No. Oracle VM installs directly on server hardware and does not require a host operating system.
This applies to the VM Server. For the VM Manager:
The Oracle VM Manager works on the operating system Oracle Enterprise Linux 4 Update 5 or later.
FYI - these servers are all Linux-based.
You might check the documentation in the "Virtualization Technology Center": http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/virtualization/index.html to find some more answers.

Installing mini sap on windows 2003 server..............

hi friends,i want to install mini sap on windows 2003 server, i have two cds for that but i m not getting how to install this,n also want to know,can it be installed on windows 2003 server or it can be installed on windows 2000 only.
please help me out
thanks

Hi,
Depending on which mini sap version you are trying to install. If you have 2 CD's, it means that it is an old version, for starting with 6.2 mini sap comes in 3 CD's (1 Kernel + 2 Database). As for the steps to install, just insert the kernel cd and an HTML file will pop up with the steps you need to do before, during and after the installation. As for installation issues please refer to:

OS Migration from Windows 2003 cluster to Windows 2008 R2 MSCS

We want to go for windows 2008 R2 server ( 64-Bit) MSCS by migrating from windows 2003 Cluster ( 32- Bit) . We are running on ECC 6.0 and oracle 10.2.0.2 DB.
Is it possible ?
Is it traditional System copy if so how to migrate the cluster ?
Regards

> 2. If the oracle version is 10.2.0.2 then does it will support Windows 2008 R2.
You need at least 10.2.0.4 (you need to install that version with a separate DVD, you can't install with the normal Oracle DVD (10.2.0.1). See
Note 1303262 - Oracle on Windows Server 2008
Be aware of the fact that the normal standard support for 10.2.x is ending at end of july (you'll have to pay an extra maintenance fee if you continue to run that version) - see
Note 1110995 - Extended maintenance for Oracle Version 10.2
So if you now do a system copy to new hardware with a new os anyway, I would upgrade to 11.2.

I installed Oracle9i Database on my Win2000 AdvancedServer,but....

I installed Oracle9i Database on my Win2000 AdvancedServer,but when i try to open Enterprise Manager by clicking "Enterprise Manager Console" from Start menu, can u believe what happened?? OK , let me tell u, NOTHING HAPPENED! no alerts,no windows,nothing.
I have started the "OracleOraHome90ManagementServer" Service, and the windows2000 system is a brandnew one.
Being a newbit of Oracle, i dont know what to do now, please help me.

Hi Micromad,
I think it takes a while to start Enterprise manager console on the Win 2000 server.SO wait for sometime after clicking from start menu.Also you will have to choose standalone option if Oracle Management Server is not configured.
check it out....

Thank Corrado & Sybrand for the value able input, in fact we are already using 9i at production environment, while the company who have developed our application have recommended us to use 9i R2 at DB Server, in our current 9i server we have windows 2000 server, our company have planned to move to windows 2003 server while upgrade to 9i R2, later when developers will ask us to move to 10g or even 11g we will upgrade, but now we are forced to stick with 9i R2.

It is the same case in Windows XP home edition.
But it is running in one of my friend's machine(windows 2003 server)
Please help me with valuable solutions.
Thanks in advance

Did your friend install on W2003 or upgrade from an older version of the OS?
When trying to run programs on an OS that is not certified for the programs, it is hit-n-miss whether the OS actually has the support files needed for the programs.
Think about this: the Oracle environment needs OS support in the form of DLLs and other files. The contents of the DLLs are made visible as APIs. Each time Microsoft releases patches, it is possible that the APIs that Oracle used are changed. This is extremely true when a new version of the OS is released, and even more true with stripped versions such as XP Home.
If your friend installed and then applied patches, [s]he may have hit the proper API combination. If you appled patches first, you may have skootched your APIs to the point that Oracle can not longer install.
Even if you happen to get it installed, you run the risk of getting clobbered any time you install a new Microsoft patch. The risk is minimized when you use a certified combination of the OS and application.

Error installing Oracle 92021 on Windows 2003 Std 64x

Bit of an Oracle newb here, so someone set me strait...
I need to install a test instance of Oracle 92x, and I want to install it on my Windows Server 2003 R2 x64 system (AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+, 4GB RAM, if it matters).
I downloaded the Windows 2003 x64 release of Oracle 9 (92021), but I can't even run the setup executable. I get:
"The image file setup.exe is valid, but is for a machine type other than the current machine."
.. as if the build was for a completely different processor architecture. I will be trying a x32 build next, but I understand x32 apps are very slow in WOW64.
What am I missing?

Ok, checked out Certify... the only certified release for my processor / OS is 10gR2... so be it. Still scratching my head that 92021 says it is for 2003 x64... oh well.
My next question is, where do I find patches? I have looked all over downloads and no luck. Certify notes that I can get "patch sets" 10.2.0.2 and 10.2.0.3.
Can someone direct me to those?
Certify output below, patch info on the very bottom
Certify - Additional Info Oracle Database - Standard Edition Version 10gR2 64-bit On Microsoft Windows 2003 (AMD64/EM64T)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 2003 (AMD64/EM64T) Version 2003 R2
Oracle Database - Standard Edition Version 10gR2 64-bit
