Can we have multi-Home CRS/ASM on same server?

Hi All,
I'm studying the feasibility for below situation (sorry i'm new in RAC)
I'm not sure whether it can setup in HP-UX-11.23 Itanium box or not (Not OpenVMS)
We have two node e.g. node1 and node2 in RAC environment.
In node1, we plan to create one instance for each customer (Let say 10 customer, we will create 10 instances on same server).
For each instances (ORACLE_HOME), can we have their own ASM software (ASM instance) and CRS software (CRS HOME) instead of create one and share with all instances.
We're looking for multi-home concept, so that if one of our customer want to upgrade/patches oracle, it will NOT affect other customer.
Any idea, or any website can share with me?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
klnghau

Let say, we have 10 instances in one box, each database will have their RDBMS homes, if we can not have multiple ASM instances or CRS home.
Whenever we want to apply patches on one of the instances, definitely other instances will be affected.
Just want to know what is the best deploy/best practice to apply patches in such environment?I think the first 'best' practice is to not have multiple instances on a single server. But if you have to do it, I'd say virtualisation might help you so that each instance lives in it's own virtual machine with it's own operating system. That way, you can also patch the OS and reboot it and only affect a single database instance. The only problem with RAC might be that not all virtualization platforms are supported with RAC

Upgrade to 11.0.2.0.3 in multi home environment and ASM 11.0.2.0.2

Hi,
I have a multi home and multi inventory database environment on one box where I consolidated all my test environments.
Everything is running 11.2.0.2
I have 5 database homes , the ASM/network home and a OEM agent home.
But now I see I have to have a 11.2.0.3 database for Oracle EBS 11i.
Now my question:
Can i only upgrade (out of place) the one oracle home from witch I will run the EBS db?
or
Should I upgrade the ASM home and the EBS db home and keep the other db homes on 11.2.0.2 ?
Where can I find the certification matrix for ASM vs. DB version?
Thank you

Phillip du PlooyFrom 11gR2 every upgrade is now out-of-place upgrades.
So if you need to upgrade from 11.2.0.2 to 11.2.0.3, the you need to install 11.2.0.3 in new oracle_home first.
And then upgrade your 11.2.0.2 database.
Now the question about ASM- yes you can run 11.2.0.3 database on 11.2.0.2 asm version during upgrade and upgrade your asm later. But i would suggest you to upgrade your ASM first then oracle database.
Here is what you would be doing
- install new 11.2.0.3 and perform ASM upgrade
- install new 11.2.0.3 home for database
- upgrade the database

Item multi-line FORM 10g

Hi,
I have a Text Item multi-line.
With Form10g, the spacing in the text is bigger (with Form 6i the spacing were perfect !)
I don't find any parameter in formsweb.cfg ......
Have you a solution ?
Thank

Simon,
no, I mean
<PARAM NAME = "mapFonts" VALUE = "yes" >
in the HTML file, where you define the applet configuration
(default is <oracle_home>/forms/server/basejinit.html or basejpi.html
or as defined by the baseHTMLjinitiator variable in your formsweb.cfg)

Clear form not working in multi record form 10g.

I have a multi record block form, when sys_indicator is 'Y' in any of the records, user should not be able to delete this record. In Pre_delete trigger, I put this code
below.
IF :CST_REFERENCE_CODE.SYS_INDICATOR = 'Y'
     THEN
     MESSAGE('You cannot delete this record. Consult your Administrator');
     MESSAGE(' ');
     CLEAR_FORM(NO_VALIDATE);           EXECUTE_QUERY;
--     RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
     END IF;
I want to clear form an re_query, but the clear form is not working. Help

CLEAR_FORM is a restricted built-in and is not allowed on PRE-DELETE trigger.
the purpose of PRE-DELETE trigger is to do some validation before the actual delete happens and may be delete the child records before the master record can be sucessfully deleted.
it will be better if you could explain that why you need some different functionality on PRE-DELETE trigger, which looks strange. Like, user is trying to delete the record and you want to restrict user from deleting the record if some condition is met and want to re-query. what is the main purpose of doing query here again or why you want to clear the form.

Multi-Home Agent Questions

Hello,
For a Multi-Homed Agent what are the permissions required by both MOM Actions and SDK Service accounts on the clients versus both RMS Production and Tests, versus both accounts on the Client.
System Center Data Access service is running under SVCMOMSDK for Prod and Local System
for Test
System Center Management Service Local System is running under Local System for Prod and Test
System Center Management Configuration is running under

Scom 2007 and scom 2012 agent multi home

is there version limit for the agent multihom for scom 2007 and scom 2012?
In technet i found it for SCOM upgrade it mentioned need scom 2007 CU4 and above, how about for multihome approach for SCOM agent?
Besides that, instead of agent upgrade, could we perform agent uninstallation scom 2007 and reinstall scom 2012?
Thanks for your advice.

Hi Cylim,
You can upgrade your agents to SCOM 2012 only from SCOM 2007 R2 CU4. Please look at these helpful links:

As Scott mentioned, you can uninstall SCOM 2007 agent and install SCOM 2012 agent on one or a few servers, and see if they report properly to both management groups SCOM 2007 and SCOM 2012:

Which ODBC driver to choose for a multi version , multi home installation

I have a situation where I need to rollout a piece of software which connects to an Oracle 64 bit database. The client group that I need to rollout to includes a combination of Oracle8, Oracle 9 and Oracle 10. Some installations have dual 8/9 Homes and I am sure that there are other combinations.
The software connects through either a normal oracle connection or can connect through ODBC. However, the normal connection software will not connect through Oracle below Oracle 9, So I am left with an ODBC driver. I am using the microsoft driver currently - it is very slow, but it is at least already installed on all the user pc's. However I believe that it does not work with dual homes.
Is there an Oracle driver that would meet our needs?, i.e allow connections from version 8 to 10 with any combination of homes.

You're right that the Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle doesn't support multiple Oracle Homes. It also isn't updated regularly, so it doesn't support a lot of functionality that was added in Oracle 9 or 10.
Exactly what versions of Oracle does "Oracle8" comprise. There is a world of difference between having some 8.1.7 databases still in prod and having some ancient 8.0.4 databases around. Depending on the "Oracle8" variants in the world, you should be able to use either the 8.1.7.x or 9.2.0.x Oracle ODBC driver should work for you. You'll need to install an appropriate Oracle Home for that driver (i.e. the machine will have to have an 8.1.7 Oracle Home if you're going to use the 8.1.7.x Oracle ODBC driver, it'll need a 9.2 Oracle Home if you're going to use the 9.2.0.x Oracle ODBC driver). Since 8.1.7 has been desupported, I'm hopeful that you can use the 9.2.0.x Oracle ODBC driver since Oracle 9.2 will at least be supported a few more months.

Cloning 9i ORACLE HOME using 10g oem.

Gang,
Has anyone tried to copy 9i ORACLE_HOME using 10G OEM. Does it automatically make changes to the oraInventory for new ORACLE_HOME. Any help will be greatly appriciated.
Thanks

Hi Per,
I am facing the same problem. I've created a TAR in which I've asked for the source of ohsel.exe or a way to add an

Did you already find a solution?

How do I multi-home Lion Server

My Mac-Mini Lion server is using both the wired and wireless connections. I have two network connections available to the internet. However, one is significantly faster than the other. I want to use the wireless connection for the internet, and the wired connection for local lan traffic. I should mention that this server is on a combined Active Directory and Open Directory network. This is the only Mac server and is set up in the Golden Triangle configuration.
What I have done so far: configured both interfaces with static addresses, pointing at the respective routers. I should also point out that the slower connection to the internet goes through an authenticated proxy server, so unless that is configured, internet traffic will not work. The faster internet connection (my wireless connection) does not have that restriction.
I have already turned on the Software Update service for the Mac clients, made a group to update them, and bound the clients to both the Active Directory and Open Directory servers.
The final thing I did was to reorder the network connections in the Network Preference panel, so the wireless connection was at the top of the list. Until I did that, I could not browse the internet with Safari.
So, have I missed anything which would prevent the Lion Server from downloading Software Updates for the network through the wireless connection, while allowing the client macs to get their updates through the server's wired connection.

I had multiple IP's set on my server, which randomly seemed to switch. It seems like there is an incompatibility still between Server Admin and server.app. Since Apple is pressing developers to test server admin and server.app I am confident those problems will resolve eventually, but for now I have deleted all-but-1 IPv4 and 1 IPv6 address (same interface), the networking interface overview for my server within Server Admin was updated and it looks like it works solid now, this was not by design I presume, so this must be another bug plaguing Lion...
After upgrading Postgres to 9.1.3 and upgrading webmail (upgrade: usr/share/webmail) from www.roundcube.net, making a new site webmail.example.com with the files stored in /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/CustomSitesDefault/webmail/ I made a symbolic link from that 'directory' to the actual built in webmail facility found in /usr/share/webmail by entering the following in terminal.
ln -s -i /usr/share/webmail/ /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/CustomSitesDefault/webmail/
By doing this it will ask to remove a directory, if you didn't put any important files in there, which I presume you didn't, confirm with the letter y and press enter.
Webmail now works every time the way I want it
As does profile manager.

Dual stack multi-home BGP

I have a design I'm working on which will require among other things dual stack across MPLS. Configuring CE routers for dual stack seems very straight forward, however I'm having trouble finding documentation describing the BGP config for multihoming and load sharing with 2 routers and 2 service providers. I've configured this quite a few times with HSRP and BGP for IPv4 similar to this example:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk365/technologies_configuration_example09186a00800945bf.shtml#conf5
Am I looking at this wrong or are these scenarios just not widely published yet?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
thanks,
Josh

Hi Josh,
You will have to understand the MBGP address families. One of the basic rule of MBGP is that when I'm advertising a route from a specific address family, the next hop has to be from the same address family. So, you will have to make sure the next hop is from the same address family. Couple of examples for you:
1. IPv6 NLRI in IPv4
router bgp 201
bgp router-id 192.168.30.1
neighbor 150.1.1.2 remote-as 301
address-family ipv6
neighbor 150.1.1.2 activate
neighbor 150.1.1.2 route-map SETNH out
network 2192:10::/48
route-map SETNH permit 10
set ipv6 next-hop 2150:1:1::3
2. IPv4 NLRI in IPv6
router bgp 201
bgp router-id 192.168.30.1
neighbor 2150:1:1::2 remote-as 301
address-family ipv4
neighbor 2150:1:1::2 activate
neighbor 2150:1:1::2 route-map SETNH out
network 192.10.0.0
route-map SETNH permit 10
set ip next-hop 150.1.1.3

Configure weblogic on a multi-home machine

I want to run weblogic on a host with 2 IP addresses, and I want weblogic to listen to both ip addresses using the default port (7601).
On the admin console (under configuration-general), I tried enter two ip addresses on the "listen address" but after doing so, I cannot start weblogic.
(I want to do this to run Resonate load-balancer software - resonate creates a virtualIP addr besides my real IP addr, and weblogic needs to listen on both)
Thanks

i found the solution, instead of entering 2 IP adresses, just blank it out - that way it will bind to ANY addr avail on the local machine.

Installed Oracle reports 6i and 9.04 form home

I had Oracle Forms 4.5. & Report 3.1. in my old system (windows NT).
My goal is to upgrade Oracle Forms & Reports onto 10g DS.
I used windows XP for this purpose.
I have successfully ungraded Oracle Forms to 10g.
First I installed Forms 6i. (applied latest patches)
I opened all forms from the 4.5 into 6i and make its work.
I have installed Oracle Forms 10g in another/Separate Oracle Home & applied
latest patches.They have upgraded.
Now I need to do same process for Oracle Report.
So I start install Oracle Reports 6i.
My goal is to install Oracle Reports in separate Oracle Home.
But It does not ask any directory.
And its starts installing under Oracle Forms (9.0.4) Oracle Home.
I was so late to stop installation.
Now I am not able to use Oracle Forms 10g.

hello,
i am afraid you destroyed your installation, or at least messed it up.
i would suggest you install 6i first, and then install 10g (9.0.4) that way you can install 10g in a separate home. not sure if the 6i installer was multi-home capable.
thanks,
ph.

Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Client 9i together

Hi, I've been lost some nights in this problem, in my job I will need migrate my Oracle Database 10g for a new computer, on the other hand, there is a software in this computer wrote in Visual Basic and this running only Oracle 9i Client.
Is it possible configure my new server for run Oracle Database 10g and Oracle 9i Client together?
Thanks!
Emerson

You can certainly use an Oracle 9i client to connect to an Oracle 10g database. Technically, you may have to apply the 9.2.0.4 patchset to the Oracle client to be completely supported, but that may not be strictly necessary.
You can also have both a 10g database and a 9i client installed on the same machine in different Oracle Homes. You may have some issues on Windows, however, if you are using software that is not multi-home compliant (i.e. the Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle) or if you call Oracle command-line utilities (exp, imp, etc) without explicitly setting the PATH first.

Corrupted 10g - Universal Installer won't Start - what do I do now?

Its a sorry tale!
Installed 10g - no problems, went fine.
Developed OCCI app against 10g. Set up test DB eventually getting some good results!
Realize I need 9i compatibility. Installed 9i client.
BIG MISTAKE - I think I installed in same home as 10g.
Now nothing works! Have even tried recovering PC to earlier checkpoint. Oracle still wont start.
Not even the UI will start!
What I would like to do is a COMPLETE and clean removal of 10g and start again!
I would be very grateful for any advice.
Many thanks.

Success!
I did a full uninstall and followed the clean up advice.
I re-insatlled and rebuilt my DB.
My OCCI application is now back under development!
But, just out of curiosity....why does the Oracle uninstall not provide an option to clean up and remove everything?
Thanks for your help and advice.
