Metalink Resultion for 11.0.3 NT migration to Aix

Hi,
I got this metalink resolution :
================
METALINK SERVICE REQUEST
We have a client who is running on Oracle Apps 11.0.3 Windows NT,
They wanted to migrate it to Oracle Apps 11.5.10.2 on the new IBM RS6000 AIX 5L
server. The upgrade path is to migrate it first to same version (11.0.3) using
export/import and then proceed to the upgrade to 11i.
Or can you suggest any other easier solution path to upgrade/migrate 11.0.3 NT
to 11i AIX?
Thanks

UPDATE
========
Hi,
My name is xxxxxxxxx and I am in the Advanced Resolution team for Install, Config and Management group. The duty manager asked me to take ownership of the issue.
I am located in the North American Eastern Timezone (New York time). The time difference may be an issue with communicating, so we will try to use Meta
link.
I see a problem with what you are trying to accomplish. I have three items of concern that will not make your plan possible:
1. Oracle Applications 11.0.3 is no longer in shipping and we will not be able to ship out any installation media. The earliest set of distribution media that we can ship at this time would be 11.5.9. Even that, would be hard to find on the shelves.
2. Oracle Applications Release 11.0.3 was never released for AIX 5L. At the time Oracle Applicaitons 11.0.3 was in circulation, only AIX 4.3 was released and that was the only AIX port that it was certified on. Unlike other releases of unix, AIX
binaries are not compatible from one release to the other. Specifically, binaries built on AIX 4.3 are not compatible to run on AIX 5L and vice versa.
3. The migration process was never certified on Oracle Applications 11.0.3. One has to be at 11.5.10.2 at a minimum in order to properly migrate an instance from one platform to another.
At this time, the only directions that I can think of would be as follows:
1. A reimplementation of the product on AIX. Use the latest available release of Oracle Applications on AIX
2. An upgrade path to at least 11.5.10.2 on Windows platform, followed by a migration.
Let me know if you have any additional questions. Otherwise, I would like to inactivate this SR.
Oracle Support Services
=================
My question is:
Is Windows NT software still available to be installed on the latest hardware specs? Or are the device drivers still
supported NT?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Personally, I do not think so. However, the best one to answer this question would be the OS and/or the hardware vendors. So, I suggest you contact them and see if you can manage to get Windows NT Media Pack and whether the drivers would be available or not.
Regards,
Hussein

  • Batch Characteristic not updating with result for linked MIC

    Hi,
    I have created a MIC and linked to a batch characteristic i.e. potency and included the characteristic in a specific batch class. This MIC is part of the inspection plan for a certain material.
    If I generate a lot of origin 01 and 09 for the material and record a result for the MIC and apply a UD, the batch characteristic is not updated with the result recorded in the batch master record..
    If I generate a lot origin 89 for the same material, when the result is recorded for the MIC and apply a UD the batch characteristic is updated with the mic value in the batch master record.
    Can you help regards?

    Ok. I am a little bit further.
    I put a trace (ST05) on the result recording and I find a difference between 4.7 and ECC6.0.
    In ECC6.0 I've an deletion in table "AUSP". This deletion isn't performed in the 4.7 system.
    Hope that this can help to solve my problem.
    Regards,
    René

  • Highly frustrated with Outlook 2013 Search People box bugs - Multiple Name Results for Same Contact & Inconsistent Results

    The Outlook 2013 "Search People" box does not function properly. It frequently displays incorrect results or a mess of duplicate results. I've reported previous issues about this and consolidating my posts into one (with screenshots this
    time). Hopefully this message will be forwarded to or seen by the Outlook programmers. It really needs to be fixed.
    Outlook 2010 and other prior versions worked perfectly. You search for name, you get ONE result with the info you're looking for. FAST AND EASY. But with Outlook 2013 Microsoft has created a heck of a mess resulting in huge frustration and productivity loss
    with such simple but important tasks.
    I have hundreds of contacts stored in my Outlook address book, and they all have COMPLETE contact info added. 
    One major issue that I'm experiencing in the new Outlook 2013 is that I now get average of 4 or more duplicate name results appearing for the same contact. And each result contains different and incomplete contact info, making it impossible for me to quickly
    find the basic info I'm looking for. The cause of this issue is that Outlook 2013 now provides results from not only your local address book(s), but it also shows results based  on your email history and social media accounts setup.
    And there's no way to turn this off, or at least specify what folders and/or accounts the People Search box should use.
    To make matters worse, the Microsoft developers conveniently forgot to add some form of an indicator (like a small icon besides each name result in the list)  that clearly indicates what result is from what source. So you must manually click on each
    result one at a time and repeat the search until you locate the correct one.
    For one specific example, I have a contact stored in my local address book called
    Infusionsoft. When I type "Infusionsoft" in the People Search box to quickly find a phone number, Outlook  2013 shows me 7 results with the same name. See the screenshot below:
    As you can see in the screenshot above, every result just says "Infusionsoft", so I have to manually click on each name result one at a time and repeat the process until I find the correct one from my address book. This same thing happens with other
    random contacts.
    From what I can tell, Outlook is pulling results based on  based on recent emails I've received from different people with "@infusionsoft.com" in their email address. So the first result shows "[email protected]" (just the email
    address), the second result shows "[email protected]", the third result shows "[email protected]" and so forth. I don't want Outlook to show all of that. I just want what's in my address book!
    And you would think that the last result would be the correct one from my address book, but no. Sometimes its the 5th result, and other times it's the 3rd or 7th result. So there's no freaking order of things here.
    We simply need the ability to turn off searching of email history and other accounts when using the People Search box. Problem fixed.
    (And please don't tell me that I need to "link" every incorrect result to one main contact. You shouldn't expect everyone to have to tediously link any and all results that appear to a record. ESPECIALLY when 5+ results for each contact appear regularly.)
    ISSUE 2: Some names must be typed in a different way for the Search People to locate them
    Another big issue I'm having with the Search People box is that some name searches don’t show the correct result, unless I search for their names in a different way.
    For one specific example, I have a contact stored in my address book named "Dave Johnson". When I type "Dave Johnson" in the Search People box, one result appears, but it's just his email address, only. It's not the result that's stored in my Outlook address
    book with his phone number, addresses, etc. Screen shot below:
    If I type in Dave's name reverse order (Johnson Dave),  no results are found at all.
    Now if I just type in just"Johnson" all by itself, it finds Dave's correct result (the one stored in my Outlook Address Book). Along with everybody else that has "Johnson" in their name (see screenshot below)...
    I double-checked how I have Dave's name programed in my address book, and it's in there as "Dave Johnson" for both the Full Name and File As fields. 
    Also, the name order shouldn't make any difference when using the People Search Box anyway. Sometimes I can find people by Last Name, First Name or First Name, Last Name. Only with random contacts does it get difficult finding  their info and
    I have to do strange things like this to find them from the People Search box.
    ISSUE 3: Some Search People results only yield an email address only.
    For other random contacts, some search results only yield an email address with no other contact details. But I can open the persons contact card from the address book manually, with the same email address shown! Screenshot below...
    In the screenshot above, I have outlined the Search People box results in red, and the Address Book results in green. You can clearly see that "Robert White" is a contact stored in my local address book with full contact details, but the Search People result
    only shows his email address! Again, it's not consitent. It's hit or miss with different people.
    ISSUE 4: Some results just don't appear at all, but they are in the address book
    Another issue I'm experiencing with the People Search Box is that some people simply  cannot be found. But I can see their contact info just fine if I click on the "People" tab down at the bottom of the page and type in their name in the "Search Contacts"
    field. Why can't the People Search box find certain people? I opened up their contact details and cannot find a single thing  that would prevent them from showing up in results.
    These are clearly serious bugs that need to be fixed. And I'm shocked as to how this got missed--or ignored during alpha and beta testing. I see the "idea" behind the developers having the Search People box search everything outside of the
    address book, but in real world application this causes a heck of a lot of problems & confusion, and it needs to be fixed ASAP.
    For technical details, I have Outlook 2013 running on two computers using hosted Exchange 2010. One system is Windows 7 and other is Windows 8. The same problems occur on BOTH computers. As far as my Outlook account setup, I have all contacts stored in the
    main address book (no sub-folders or other folders).
    Can someone help communicate this message to the Outlook developers??? The "Frown" button limits me to 100 characters and one image. There's no way I can communicate this level of detail and steps to duplicate in 100 characters!

    Thanks for your reply.
    1) The instant search boxes in each individual page work just fine. If I am on the People page and type in a name in the "Search Contacts" field, it searches my contacts and displays the results that I want. But I should not have to leave whatever screen
    I'm in to find people now. In Outlook 2010 and earlier versions, I could be on the calendar page and then search for a contact without clicking off the calendar completely. For productivity-sake, it's a huge waste of time and hassle now.
    2) I'm familiar with how contact linking works, and quite frankly it's a huge mess in general. I NEVER create multiple contacts for the same person. I get that Outlook 2013 get confused now when it detects a LinkedIn or Facebook account for the same person
    already in my Outlook address book, but we need to have options that allow us to turn off results from some or all social networks. This is a big part of the problem.
    Think about it this way - The average person has 150+ LinkedIn connections, and more for Facebook. Many people today have accounts for both and they are setup with the same email address. When Outlook 2013 has to scan all the networks IN ADDITION to your
    local address book(s), it's a no brainer that it can get very confused trying to display results.
    Another big part of the problem is that Outlooks new search system also scans your email history. I receive emails from people who use multiple email addresses, or emails from companies with multiple reps or ticket systems that send you a unique
    ticket ID # ending in the same email address domain. Now Outlook displays people search results based on everything under the sun in my email history. This is beyond frustrating (see my "Infusionsoft" screenshot above in the first post).
    Again, I want to stress that for the search examples I referenced, I only have one entry in my Outlook address book for each person. And that's all I want to find when I search for people--what's already in my own address book! 
    In summary:
    We need an OPTION to turn off searching external networks when using the People Search box
    We need an option to tell Outlook to not scan email history for people search results (I think this needs to be disabled entirely actually. It's not helpful at all)
    There should be a fixed priority for displaying people search results, with local address book results FIRST, followed by social network results.
    There should be a clear icon/indicator next to each result that gives you a clue as to where the result is coming from. Your address book? Facebook? LinkedIn? We should not need to click on each result to get a hint as to where it's coming from.
    Work out the bugs in general with the new search system.
    One other thing that I didn't mention is that the Search People box also shows results for people I'm not even "friends" or connected with on the different social networks. But I've noticed that some people use the same email address for those networks that
    I already have programmed for them in my address book, which is why Outlook sometimes shows me these results. Does that make sense?
    I'll try rebuilding the index, but after testing Outlook 2013 on 3 different machines so far and seeing the same results (all slightly different results on each machine and very inconsistent), I doubt this will address the issue.

    Regarding Backup as it is Application Level patch, is it fine if i take Backup of $ORACLE_HOME for Application Tier ?You will have to take a full backup (which means all the application/database tier files -- i.e. all the directories after you shutdown all the services cleanly).
    1. After that I need to 'Enable Maintenance Mode' using adadmin utility
    applmgr>$adadmin
    2. Source Env file for Application Tier
    applmgr>$ . SID_hostname.endYou mean env file.
    3. Stop all Application Services
    applmgr>$ . adstpall.sh
    4. Copy patch to Directory
    5. Unzip
    6. applmgr>$ cd /u01/patch/10629956
    7. After that apply patch using adpatch utility
    applmgr>$ adpatch
    8. Disable Maintenance Mode
    9. Start Application Tier Services
    10. Retest Correct.
    Can I follow these steps ? Yes.
    By default value of parameter "apply" is "y" so does it apply patch intest mode? I nned to specify it to "n" or should i test it first as i m doing this first time. You do not need to test it if you take a backup, and this is a small patch so you should be OK :)
    If in case anything goes wrong can I restore my Application Services back using old Oracle_Home backup ?Yes.
    Note: Please edit the post before the previous one as it contains the contents of MOS document and this violates Oracle support agreement policy.
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    I am afraid there maybe two users / workstations using the same user code and one of them is creating (add) and other is update. Try to ask the users/wrokstations.
    Another way out is try to run this query :
    select * from HEM5

    Simple question - How do I add photos to the body of my emails . But instead of the answer - Found 1000 results for How do I add photos to my emails for Thunderbird. There are answers that don't apply at all to the question in anyway. Why does it have to be so hard to get a simple answer to a simple question?

  • Auto-refresh search result (for activities)

    Hi all,
    we've got a customer requirement to implement a auto-refresh function for the search result for activities, means, the search result table should automatically be updated every x minutes.
    In component BT126S_APPT, view layout ApptSQ.htm, I've added the following lines of code after the thtmlb:advancedSearch tag:
    window.setTimeout["document.getElementById('C16_W54_V55_Searchbtn').click();", 5000 ) ;
    This script "clicks" the search button 5 secs after the search page has been loaded.
    Now, the interesting thing is that this works two times, like starting the page -- javascript triggers first automatic search --search result updated -- javascript triggers second automatic search -- search result updated, but then the script isn't called ny more.
    Any idea about that?
