Is it possible to install 32 bit oracle db on a 64 bit linux server?

Is it possible to install 32 bit oracle 10g db on a 64 bit linux server rhel 4.
thanks in advance,
chau

Yes, it is possible, but you can perfectly install the 64 bits version on RHEL4. However you will have more trouble on unsupported OS... so it's useful that you can install the 32 bits version.

Moving a 32 bit Oracle 9i database to 64 bit on a different server

Hello,
We have a 24 GB database with Oracle 9.2.0.7 (32 bit). As the hardware of this server is getting obsolete, it is planned to move this instance to another server, which has 64 bit Oracle software of same version (9.2.0.7). In this scenario what is the best way to move the instance?
Is it only the full export from 32 bit server and import into 64 bit server(after creating the instance there)?
Since this is a 24 GB database, and target server is 8 gb of ram, any pointers on how long the import process can take?
There is a documentation to change word size, I can run utlirp.sql as suggested here:
http://www.orafaq.com/forum/?t=rview&goto=258668#msg_258668
But I have some doubts as I mentioned in that post. Can you please share your suggestions?
Thanks,
Nirav

Hi
Is there some document or steps to follow when creating the instance on the new server The database move is easy, and here is one way to move the schema, fast:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_tips_db_copy.htm
And then, you just run the script to change the wordsize for 64-bit:
Also, after your migration, watch out for common performance issues:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_bad_poor_performance_upgrade_migration_32_64_bit.htm
Also, note that Oracle has changed the optimizer costing model from "IO" to CPU" in 10g, and shops that combine an upgrade to 64-bit servers with a 10g migration may want to look at changing the new default for _optimizer_cost_model.
Going 64-bit means that you can now allocate very large RAM data buffers and increase your shared_pool_size above two gigabytes. However, it is important to remember that there are downsides to having a super-large db_cache_size. While direct access to data is done with hashing, there are times when the database must examine all of the blocks in the RAM cache. These types of database may not always benefit from an upgrade to a 64 bit server:
Systems with high Invalidations: Whenever a program issues a truncated table, uses temporary tables, or runs a large data purge, Oracle must sweep all of the blocks in the db_cache_size to remove dirty blocks. This can cause excessive overhead for system with a db_cache_size greater than 10 gigabytes.
High Update Systems: The database writer (DBWR) process must sweep all of the blocks in db_cache_size when performing an asynchronous write. Having a huge db_cache_size can cause excessive work for the database writer. Some shops dedicate a separate, smaller data buffer (of a different blocksize) for high-update objects.
RAC systems: Oracle RAC and Grid does not perform optimally with super-large data buffer RAM, as available in 64-bit systems. You may experience high cross-instance calls when using a large db_cache_size in multiple RAC instances. This inter-instance "pinging" can cause excessive overhead, and that is why RAC DBA's try to segregate RAC instances to access specific areas of the database. This is why Oracle 10g grid server blades generally contain only 4-gig RAM.
Hope this helps. . .

32 bit Oracle database 10g to 64 bit Oracle Database 11g on Windows 2008

Hi everybody,
I'm going to move and upgrade my 32 bit Oracle database server 10g to another 64 bit windows 2008 server.
New database server will be 64 bit Oracle database server 11g.
Somebody told me export import doesn't carry archieve logs therefore is there any way to move and upgrade the database without any lost?
Thanks for your help

is it source database 32bit is in different OS platform? If not directly after installation you can upgrade the database. using DBUA

Is it possible to install two Oracle Databases on one host?

I got installed Oracle 10.1.0.3.0 on my host (OS: Linux CentOS 5 64-bit) and there is need to install another one on the same host. Additional database is supposed to be started up and shutted down once per a day for a couple of hours.
Is this configuration possible?
Thanks in advance

It is possible to have N database instances running on one box. They can also be running on the same or different $ORACLE_HOMEs.
If you are using the same ORACLE_HOME for all your databases, be sure to change your ORACLE_SID to point to the correct SID.
DBCA can help you create different databases from the current ORACLE_HOME

Can one export a schema from a 64 bit Oracle DB into a 32 bit Oracle DB?

Hello:
I need to copy a schema from one DB to another. The source DB runs 64 bit version of Oracle DB but the target DB runs 32 bit version of Oracle DB. Can the schema in 64 bit DB instance be exported and imported into a 32 bit DB instance with exp/imp or expdp/impdp command? Thanks.

Hello:
Thanks for your help. Please see part of the error message below. In the new db, I have created the same user with same password and also grant connect and resource privilege to that user.

32-bit OBDC Driver for a 64-bit Oracle Installation on a 64-bit Machine

Hi,
We got a 64-bit installation of Oracle on a 64-bit Windows Server 2008 machine. I can only view my Oracle 10g home driver from the ODBC screen in the 64-bit control panel and not in the 32-bit control panel. Is there any way to install a 32-bit drivers as well? If so which version of the driver will it be?

Thanks for the reply.
1.Will the response time at the application server be better if I could use a 64-bit client?
2. 2^32=4GB; Will the 32-bit client be constrained to access data sets of maximum 4 GB at a time?Not by any use of the software that I can imagine. Network packets are typically limited to under 1 MB (under 16K) in any case, so you never pass the 32-bit need from a networking side.
The only time I see needing a 64-bit client is if you are using OCI and trying to compile and link to a C program. In which case your link libraries need to be 64-bit aware.
Tanel might have other ideas based on his experience.

Owb 10.2.0.1 install on oracle RAC 10.2.0.4 Linux

Hi,
i create Oracle RAC with DBCA on linux box.
I want to install OWB 10.2.0.1 on RAC
I have 2 node DB
DBNAME = RAC

service unique name RACSRV1 on istance RACINST1
e RACSRV2 on istance RACINST2
How to configurate tnsnames.ora on owb_home on NODE 1?
RAC1 =

Hi Oleg,
many thanks for the answer.
My doubt is on the right service name specificaton.
I create 2 service unique name for istance 1 (racistnt1) ed istance 2 (racistnt2)
I use srvctl command for create these.
In tnsnames must by use on node 1
(service_name = racsvr1)
(istance_name = racistnt1)
or
(service_name = racsvr) --> cluster service name
(istance_name = racistnt1)
In tnsnames must by use on node 2
(service_name = racsvr2)
(istance_name = racistnt2)
or
(service_name = racsvr) --> cluster service name
(istance_name = racistnt2)
Steps Install OWB.
1. instal OWB on node 1 --> OK
2. copy rtrepos.properties from node 1 to node 2 --> OK
3. sqlplus owbrep SQL>@start_service.sql -->OK (i test it without start service too)
4. lunch reposinst.sh on node 2 --> KO
the choose 'Registera Application Cluster (RAC) istance' don't appear

Problem Installing Oracle Client 11g R2 64 bit on Windows 7 Enterprise 64

Hi,
I am having problems installing the Oracle Client 11g R2 64 bit installation on my Windows 7 64 bit Enterprise machine. The installer does all the checks successfully, it gets me to summary screen and I press finish to start the installation. It then opens the installation mask where it first says Checking whether Central Inventory is locked by another OUI session. After that it very briefly shows Central Inventory is not locked and then the window immediately dissapears with no other errors. I tried installing at my colleague's W7 Enterprise 64 machine and it behaves a little differently but with the same result. Basically on his machine it never even opens the Install mask, when pressing finish from the Summary it just disappears and never starts installation. I tried installing 11g R1 and that loads the first mask and when i press next it just dissapears. I basically need an oracle client 64 bit installation on my machine deperately. Please help. Thanks
Alex

One user above reported installing the 64 bit odbc drivers and then the 32 bit drivers. How did you do that? I'm a neophyte to this.
I'm trying to get a 32 bit ODBC oracle driver to work on a server 2008 R2 machine. I downloaded the 11gR2 x64 client from oracle. The install process makes no mention of 32bit vs 64bit installation. After running the instalation I can run the ODBC administrator and generate a DSN for oracle. When I run the 32 ODBC administrator there is no oracle driver available except the microsoft driver for oracle. When I select that it says that I need to install oracle.
I had at first tried to install 11g instant client. However that didn't work for the 2008 R2 machine. It complained about some registry error when I tried to run the ODBC install program. I need to get it to work for a customer asap.
