Cant install oracle 8i in windows 2003 server

hi,
I am a newbie in Oracle.While Im trying to install Oracle 8i in Windows 2003 server , setup is not running.It didn't show anything.When trying to run from auto run, after splash screen nothing came.I formatted hard disk,changed two more hard disks,.changed machine...but cant install it in no way... 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.

10.2.0.1 RHEL 4.0 - root.sh CRS - Failed to upgrade Oracle Cluster Registry

I am trying to install 10.2.0.1 CRS on a 2 node cluster on RHEL 4.0 Nahant Update 7. I get the following errors when root.sh is run
Failed to upgrade Oracle Cluster Registry configuration._
Due to this reason , none of the clusterware background processes fail to start, following which the Configuration Assistant screen also experiences failure (Oracle Notification Server Configuration Assistant).
I tried to apply the 10.2.0.4 patchset also, still same issue. Did anyone see this issue ?
1) We use LINUX DEVICE MAPPER for multipathing and udev
2) We configured the multipathing device partitions and bound them to raw devices
So /dev/mapper/oradisk1 bound to /dev/raw/raw1 ( OCR disk)
and /dev/mapper/oradisk2 bound to /dev/raw/raw2 (VD)
I am able to perform the dd command successfully.
Any ideas ?
-Srinivas

BTW, we our OS is Linux x86-64 with RHEL 4.0 Nahant Update 7. I also applied the patch 4679769.
Did a complete uninstall and reinstall. But issue persists.

Veritas Cluster (SFRAC) and oracle CRS

We have oracle 9i RAC running on Solaris 9 with over veritas cluster.
We want to run 10g RAC on the same same servers which will use the
veritas cluster file system
While trying to install 10g CRS the node selection list doesnt show node
information.Entered information using response file .After the installation
root.sh fails to start CRS.
Is it ok to run 9i and 10g RAC on same servers.

Chandra/Vishwa
We have a libskgxn2.so in /opt/ORCLcluster/lib directory. But the size of the file is
different from /opt/VRTSvcs/rac/lib/libskgxn2_64.so.1 file
Since we already have 9i rac running, I am not sure if copying the file from
/opt/VRTSvcs/rac/lib directory if it will affect 9i rac.
I went ahead with installation of CRS. I am getting following error while running root.sh
Checking to see if Oracle CRS stack is already configured
Checking to see if any 9i GSD is up
/oracle/crshome/AUTEST/bin/lsdb: Failed to initialize Cluster Context

[-t p1,p2,p3,p4] [-pn privA,privAnum,privB,privBnum...]
[-hn hostA,hostAnum,hostB,hostBnum...]
With CRS and veritas running on the same server , will CRS always communicate
across nodes using VCS since we will be using veritas cluster file system
for database.

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.

I see in the above log that saying ASM instance is down and failed to open +DATA .
But the asm instance up and running
SQL> select instance_name,status from v$instance;
INSTANCE_NAME STATUS
+ASM1            STARTED
And we havent created any disk named DATA before the installation. We have created only below two disks
SQL> select name,header_status from v$asm_disk;
NAME HEADER_STATUS
ASM_DATA MEMBER
FLASH_RECOVERY MEMBER
But I am seeing a diskgroup in the v$asm_diskgroup which we havent created.
SQL> select name,state from v$asm_diskgroup;
NAME STATE
DATA MOUNTED
Ya this is a second time installtion. In the first installtion we created the asmdisk as DATA. But later everything (RAW device ) was formatted and this new disks has been created and installtion again started
[root@SFV9699 bin]# oracleasm listdisks
ASM_DATA
FLASH_RECOVERY
Seems like its trying to read the old disk DATA.
we have done asmscanning too with oracleasm scan disks. but no use.
Where I can remove the old entry of DATA disk.
It would be a great if a quick response get.
Thanks
SHIYAS M

The permission looks fine. If it was permission issue then y it is trying to read the DATA disk which I havent created this time at all ( But created in the first installation).

what abt dropping this group.. will anything work.

Error while installing Oracle Cluster Ready Services Release 1 (10.1.0.2)

Add new Oracle VM 3.0.2 server & network, SAN configuration

Hi,
I'm installing an Oracle VM 3.0.2 cluster with 4 Oracle VM servers.
The cluster has been installed with 2 servers, the network has been configured (3 VM Network and 1 admin network).
The storage has been configured, some VM has been created.
And live migration has been realized.
Perfect
When i'm connecting on the server, I can see the network configuration on linux (bridge, vlan, etc...), storage (pool and repository,)
Now, i have two other servers and i'm installing one with Oracle VM Server 3.0.2.
The installation is OK, i discovered the server in oracle VM Manager without problem.
When I'm adding the servers in the pool, the operation is successfull, and now I have a pool with 4 servers.
In Oracle VM Manager, i can see these new servers in Network, VLAN Groups tabs, Storage Arrays.
But, on the server, the network configuration is not configured, I don't have the configuration like other server.
No bridge, no new vlan.
And the ocfs2 repository filesystem is not mounted.
And I don't know why
Do you have any idea ?

We fixed a bug in 3.0.3 where the networks are not created on the new server correctly. 3.0.3 is busy being uploaded to the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud, so it should be available in a few days. In 3.0.3 we automatically configure the network on-the-fly as guests that require each network component are started.I have upgrade to 3.0.3 :
- the Oracle VM Manager
- these 2 servers already in the pool
- and the new server
I add it in the pool, and the network are not configured.
I make an new install from scratch of the new server, and same problem.
I create a new VLAN segment in the pool, and this segment is configured on all servers, including the new one.
I copied the network configuration from a active server on the new server
I rediscover the server
Ok, the 3.0.3 seem to be available on Oracle Delivery, i will download it as soon as possible.
The repository needs to be presented to the new server that's joined the pool. Can you explain me ?I find the present/unpresent repository on the repository tab, it's ok now.
Now I can migrate a VM to the new server, all works fine.
I'm waiting the last server to be available (san connection problem).
I will see if the problem is the same.
Best regards

Oracle Cluster and libnnz10 problem - SOLVED!

Hi to all
I have some machines (XServe) with OSX 10.4.9 and Oracle 10.1.0.3.
In all the machines I follow the instructions find in this forum (the relink libnnz10.dylib trick) and all the databases runs very well.
Now I'm trying to instal two machines in cluster mode.
The node 1 is a clean machine. The node 2 is a machine that has a Oracle single instance running.
All the installation in cluster mode runs smooth and I made the same things that in a single instance (like the relink trick).
With all installed, the CRS daemon is running and the listeners is running (I run NETCA before runnig DBCA).
Using the DBCA works fine until the last step - for the database creation, the last script has a shutdown/startup command to run a full recompile of all packages and procedures in the database.
At this moment the installation fails (with end-of-communication channel). Looking in the logs, this is the _dyld libnnz10.dylib error.
Even after the crash in installation, I quit the DBCA and runs SQLPLUS. I connect in the database, try a startup (that fails with the error mentioned), reconnect again and make two commands : alter database mount; alter database open; (and it works).
I do this in the two nodes and the CRS daemon recognizes the running instances (with crs_stat -t I can see all online) and the database is running and in cluster (what I do in one instance appears in the other and the datafiles are the same), including failover tasks (like simulating a node down - the database still running).
But all tries to run the startup/shutdown commands fails. It fails always when the LMON processes try to start.
I recheck the installation, focusing in the relink trick with the libnnz10. When I use DBCA to install a single instance on node 1 or node 2 in the same ORACLE_HOME of the cluster, it runs fine (including startup/shutdown) - this make me think that all the database relink's are fine.
I try to relink the cluster. In installation it uses 4 makes and I redo this makes without the libnnz10. The makes runs well too, but the error continues (only using startup/shutdown in cluster database).
I'm doing the documentation of the process and will post it, but I want to resolve this issue.
Any ideas ?
Thanks to all

Hi to all.
I downloaded the 10.1.0.5 as soon I can - thanks to damjanp!
After the download, I follow all the instructions.
I stop the database, all the services and the cluster. Run the installer and it works fine.
When I try to make the post-installation tasks, I cannot startup the database (nor with the error that I was having). I received a Oracle Cluster Configuration Error...
I read all the logs and find 3 errors. I do not know if this occurs because of wrong environment variables.
The commands awk, touch and basename fails - the scripts try to find this commands in /bin (this commands in OSX stay in /usr/bin). I prefer make a link (ln -s) using root :
ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk
ln -s /usr/bin/touch /bin/touch
ln -s /usr/bin/basename /bin/basename
When I done this, the cluster starts (ocssd.bin, crsd.bin e evmd.bin). But when I try to start the database, it fails (ORA-29702 : error occurred in Cluster Group Service operation) and srvctl gives me PRKH-1010 : Unable to communicate with CRS services. [OCR Error(Native : prsr_initCLSS:[21])].
To resolve this I use localconfig (user root) :
localconfig reset /<ORACLE_HOME>
After this, I shutdown all and restart the CRS services - and for my surprise the CRS automaticaly starts all the services (including the instances).
And the libnnz10 problema was gone!
I read the documentation and found that the "TNS - lost contact" problem in Tiger (yeah - Tiger) was resolved.
I think that 10.1.0.5 can runs on Tiger more easily.
The cluster are running fine now - I shutdown/startup the instance several times to test with no errors.
I will prepare a documentation to post in the Web about this installation. When I finish I post in this forum the link.
Thank's to all.

Oracle Cluster Ready Service

Hi
I am using Ora10gR1 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9. I am getting the following message in /var/log/messages
Aug 27 09:48:41 (none) logger: Oracle Cluster Ready Services disabled by corrupt install
Aug 27 09:48:41 (none) logger: Could not access /etc/oracle/scls_scr/ohare/root/crsstart.
I did not install CRS. Can you help?
Thx

Hi,
These don't have any affect on your database. If you want to disable these messages then comment following line in the inittab file
#h1:35:respawn:/etc/init.d/init.cssd run >/dev/null 2>&1 </dev/null

Oracle cluster setup

Hi There,
We're trying to build a clustered oracle environment using oracle 11g (11.2.0.1) under Windows 2008 server.
The basic setup is to have 2 servers (active/passive), one shared SAN disk, install the software on both servers, put the database datafiles on the shared disk/SAN and when needed we can switch the shared disk between the 2 servers as failover/failback.
IS the above industry standard cluster setup? or is there a better way of doing it? does oracle/windows provide a way to failover/failback between servers?
Are there any documents that we can read that explains a good cluster setup please (without using RAC)? Or is there a document that have a better setup?
Can someone shed some light on this please and/or point us to the right direction.
Thanks

Does oracle clusterware comes shipped with the specific release (10g, 11g..etc) database installation pack or is it a separate download?
We saw this under the oracle download section:
Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Grid Infrastructure (11.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64)
Download win64_11gR2_grid.zip (715,166,425 bytes) (cksum - 3127109177)
Contains the Grid Infrastructure Software including Oracle Clusterware, Automated Storage Management (ASM), and ASM Cluster File System. Download and install prior to installing Oracle Real Application Clusters, Oracle Real Application Clusters One Node, or other Oracle software in a Grid Environment So, I was wondering if we should download this and install it on the server?
Thanks

Shared cluster with multiple oracle homes

Hi All,
I got to build a shared oracle RAC cluster with multiple oracle home installation ( 10g R1 , 10g R2 , and 11g R1 & 2).
Of course the cluster ware will be version 11.2, but I wondered if there is any dependency on how I install oracle software? Do I have to start with 10g installation first? can I do 11g and then 10g?
Is there anything I should be aware of ?

I installed Oracle Application Server Enterprise which includes AS, Database, OID, Web Cache, SSO etc. and OSES on the same machine. Everything works except I think the windows version of OSES and AS need some patches so the crawler isn't working right. Everything does, however, install and run. I think Oracle develops everything in Linux (rumors of them now using Solaris) so on Linux everything should go smoother.

FATAL [INS-41311] One or more Oracle Cluster Registry (OCR) locations spec

I'm installing 11.2.0.3 Grid Infrastructure on Red Hat 5.7. I'm receiving the following error that I pasted below. There isn't a whole lot of information regarding it. It seems that the install sees an existing CRS install, but the NFS volumes are empty. This is a fresh install. I ran cleanup, but there's nothing to remove. Any help or insight will be appreciated.
Thank you

These are NFS mounts off of NetApp NAS. They are volumes that don't contain anything else but an empty .snapshot subdirectory. This is my first NFS RAC implementation. We followed NetApps best practices for the NFS mount options as well as the export options on the NAS. I'm sort of lost as to what the problem could be. Ran the installer with debug and strace, but I'm still not getting any insight into the issue. Thanks for trying to help.
My first reaction to the failed CRS install is to clean it up. I ran the cleanup steps, but the installer didn't get far enough to generate any files.
I'm using the following NFS mount options:
rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,vers=3,timeo=600,noac,suidUse rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,noac,actimeo=0,vers=3,timeo=600 for Mount points for CRS voting disk and OCR

How can we achive active/active cluster setup with Oracle

Hi Experts,
How can we achieve active/active database setup with oracle WITHOUT USING RAC.. As far as I know it's impossible (unless I'm wrong)..
We are using Oracle 11.2.0.1 64bit on Windows 2008 server. We deployed Oracle FailSafe but that's more of an active/passive solution based on a windows cluster.
The other solution we were thinking about is to use DataGuard and replication.. two servers.. the oracle instance running on one server generating logs, and the other server receive the logs and apply them to the physical standby db.. Still, this is not a real active/active setup.
So, is it possible to run 2 servers in an active/active cluster and have the oracle database in an active/active setup or have the instance running on multiple nodes (at the same time)?
Thanks

Let me give you a brief explanation of what the situation is and you can be the judge..
My client have four databases with the smallest one being 20GB and the biggest around the 35gb (SGA 750mb to 1.4gb (Tiny by DB standards) and probably on a normal day, you can run all four of them on a decent desktop).. The DBs are used to keep track of people information. Through out the year, the databases are almost sitting idle, and by idle I mean, the odd update here and there, the odd report..etc. No hard real processing of any sort. Two days of the year (end of year) we have all the operators consolidating records and what's not and they will be pounding away entering data and updating the tables - with hourly reports that goes to 3rd parties. The client expects a 99.99 up time and availability during those 2 days.
Now, tell me, How can I justify using RAC and spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in licensing and what ever extra costs introduced by the complexity of the environment for the above scenario knowing that I don't have any real use for RAC for 363 days of the year; and we MIGHT need it for 2 days of the year? This is the dilemma we're facing.
Thanks
