Multiple Clients Installed on same NT box.

I have oracle 8.1.6 client and 8.1.7 client installed in seprate directories on the same machine.
How do I tell which client I am useing if the ODBC I use is Merant 3.60 generic drivers?
I think the tnsnames.ora file determins which client version connects to which database. The seperate directories specify which database can be connected via which client.
null

Honestly, I'm not certain how third-party drivers deal with a multi-homed Oracle client. My guess would be that it would use the primary Oracle home, i.e. the home that you have selected in the Oracle Home Selector. Since the primary Oracle home is listed first in the path, I'd assume that all the Oracle DLL's would be loaded from the primary home.
If you want a definitive answer, you'll probably need to contact Merant.

WDS 2012 R2 - Cannot PXE multiple clients at the same time

Hello All,
This is my first post on here so I apologize if this is the wrong place. I work for a school district and we are implementing WDS 2012 R2. We've been extremely satisfied with the speeds and ease of use through unattend files. However, for
the past month I've been looking for a possible answer to a problem that has plagued us from day one of implementation.
So here's the problem:
I have a stand alone WDS server which is not a domain controller and is not our DHCP server. I have IP helpers and broadcast forwarders setup on the network. As well as option 66 and 67 in DHCP. So far so good right!
Well that's partially right. When we boot one client at a time to the WDS server. Everything works as intended. We can TFTP the necessary files from the WDS server. Everything boots up and we're off and running.
However, if we boot up two or more clients at the same time. The WDS server never responds to the traffic. The clients get their DHCP information. They start the referral and download from the WDS server, but get no response. I'm
really hoping that someone on here would have some insight of something I can try. I've about exhausted my list of peers and contacts. They're all stumped as well and were smart enough to stay with 2008 WDS.
I would prefer to stick with 2012 R2 since it's setup and working for the most part. With only this one hiccup.
Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Hello Daniel,
I appreciate the reply and apologize for taking so long to get back to this. Things have been a little hectic over here.
I have tried everything on this forum and I am still unsuccessful in PXE booting multiple clients at the same time.
Multicast is enabled on the server, and it works for the clients. However, as stated in the original post. I cannot boot multiple machines at the same time. I can start them from the image selection screen around the same time though. So,
that appears to be working fine.

Can one installation of SSIS be shared by multiple instances on the same physical box?

Hello everyone,
I hope I'm posting this question on the correct forum.
We are short on money this year and we decided to purchase one physical system to represent Development and QA.
I am designing an architecture around my systems where I would have a two SQL Server Instances (2014, Enterprise Ed), one for each environment:
DVSV-ODS01\DEV
DVSV-ODS01\QA
The only possible problem is SSIS, which I cannot have multiple installations of SSIS on the same box.
Is it possible to have the SSIS service serving the two SQL Server instances installed on the same physical box?
Thanks for your help.

Not on the same physical box, but you can go with running say the QA environment on a Virtual Machine.
E.g. the very free VirtualBox should do it. And then you can install two SSIS instances.
You can even access them simultaneously this way.

Multiple AIA instances on same Linux box

H,
Can multiple SOA instances be deployed on same linux box then with AIA on top of it.
Can some one pls answer this?
Regards,
Rakesh

Yes you can but:
Each SOA installation must be in his own ORACLE_HOME directory.
Each AIA installation must be in his own ORACLE_HOME directory.
You must point to different databases. You can not have mulitple SOA schema's in one sinlge database.

Connect one JAVA ADS instance to multiple clients from the same ABAP system

Hi,
Does anyone know whether it is possible to connect multplie clients from the same ABAP system to a JAVA instance running ADS?
If so how do you setup the java destinations in Visual Admin and SM59 RFC connections?
Any help is appreciated,
Sander

Dear Sander,
this is always the case if you arrange the ADS connection.
You have to set up the RFC connection 'ADS' in ABAP side and this connection/destination is client independent. So you can use this from all clients of your abap system.
On Java side you have to arrange the already mentioned FP_ICF_DATA_<SID> destination. On the ABAP system and client (you specify in this destination) you have to maintain the user ADS_AGENT and your templates should also exist on this client. If there is no client defined, the default client will be used.

9i iAs install on same Solaris box w/8.1.6.0.0

What torture!
I installed Oracle 8.1.6 on a Solaris 2.7 Enterprise 250 w 512 meg Ram.
Installed in the ORACLE_HOME /atl/ora816
And established a new user 'oracle'
to own the database, and the group 'oinstall'.
After that tried to install the 9i iAs on the same box the following times:
1) Try number one: created a new user, 'ias' to own the new ORACLE_HOME, '/pac/ias', into which I installed the HTTP_Server only business; the iAS installer failed to install the portal repository on the main database. It also failed to install the owa_htp or owa_util packages. Gave errors with the 'nngt.o' in makefile during construction. So I uninstalled (at which point curiously it runs the Portal install program, NOT during installation), erased, etc and tried
2) using the same oracle user as the main database installation, with a new ORACLE_HOME, /pac/ias, gave it a nice big TMP directory setting to install. Had similar errors. Uninstalled, erased, attempted
3) Using the same ORACLE_HOME as the main database installation. Got an error; tried to run svrmgrl got an error that libswctl.so or somesuch was not found; erased everything dealing with Oracle, looked at Microsoft SQL server product offering. Giving one more good go at installing the database from scratch and then the iAs. What am I doing wrong here, what is the correct way to do it? I just want to serve a web page with mod_plsql, not much, but I have to install 1.8 gigs of confusing and vaguely documented software to get there?

Hi,
The upgrade from 8.1.6 to 9.2 with full export method doesn't work, and it seems normal if we read the metalink note 132904.1 about Compatibility Matrix for Export & Import Between Different Oracle Versions.
Try an export/import schema level.

Mobile devlopment workstation and Mobile client install on same server

Hi,
Can we install Mobile development workstation and mobile client on same server?
I have already installed mobile development workstation , but when i try to install mobile client on same server it says that add,remove ,modify option install screen. It lis not allowing me to enter new screen.
Any idea.
- tom

When you install the MD Workstation you are opted to choose among different applications i.e. mobile sales, mobile service, mobile system maintenance or authorization management tool. You can there choose the application to install besides the installation of the MD Workstation.
If you want to add application(s) later, you have to choose 'modify' and choose all parts for the MD Workstation plus the applications. If you omit options chosen before when doing the first installation then these will be removed. So be shure to choose ALL relevant things for the application as well as for the MD Workstation.
You can also generate the application from the installed repository, there are several notes on this subject available ('how to generate an application') which are referred to in about any installation guide or note changing the msa coding.

Multiple Clients acess thru same desktop

I need to investigate for following problem :
from one desktop we can connect to multiple different client (different network) by keeping data secure. that is we can open different virtual desktops like VMs and have them secure also controlling privacy of one client with another. How can we achieve
this. Kindly help

Hi,
MSTSC is based on RDP. RDP is very secure and you can launch multiple MSTSC/RDP instances/sessions simultaneously. Furthermore, you can SSL to make it more secure.

SAP GRC 10 : Can we connect GRC to multiple clients within the same system

We are having this requirement to connect SAP GRC to two different clients within the QA System.
Just wondering whether this is possible to connect at the same time. We have created connectors in both the clients in ECC and in GRC we have connectors for both ECC Cllients. When I try to add the connector for second client in SPRO , it is not even showing up entry for that
Please confirm whether we can do this

Hi Anil
If you have two ECC clients you would create two connectors to GRC. You would need two SM59 RFC connections (one for each client) to map them through.You can map them to the same logical group though.
What is not working for you? Did you define both clients as their own connectors?

Multiple SOA instances run on Same Linux BOX

Hi,
Can multiple SOA installed be installed on same Linux box? Can someone pls answer this.
Regards,
Rakesh

it should be supported; It is just a new installation of SOA Suite into a new directory structure. Keep in mind that you need to have different databases to hold up the SOA Schema's. Note that from release 11g, you can have multiple SOA schema's into a single database instance.

Sending mouse pointer co-ordinates to multiple clients

Hi. I used the MouseMotionListener to get mouse pointer co-ordinates and send those values to one single client. Now i want to know how i could send those co-ordinate values to multiple clients at the same time? If i use multi-threading then what all the steps should i do in the run() method???

Hi. I tried another way. Its like this.
I declared two global variables x and y for holding two mouse co-ordinates in class a.
class a {
public static int x = 0;
public static int y = 0;
Now in the main method of one class, I accepted client connections and started the thread like this :
socket = server.accept();
thread= new HandlerThread(socket);
thread.start();
Now in the class HandlerThread this is what i did :
class HandlerThread extends Thread {
private Socket s1;
ObjectOutputStream oos;
public HandlerThread(Socket s) {
this.s1=s;
public void run() {
try
oos = new ObjectOutputStream(s1.getOutputStream());
oos.writeObject(a.x);
oos.writeObject(a.y);
catch(IOException e)
System.out.println("Exception"+e);
At the sender side when i moved my mouse pointer on screen, i was able to get the changing mouse co-ordinates value. But at the receiver side, only the initial value of x=0 & y=0 was obtained. I started two client connections and for both i received only the initial value. Can someone tell me what could be the reason for this?? Plz reply.

RMI: multiple clients for one RMI server?

Hi,
We're thinking of making a RMI Server.
However, can multiple clients access the same RMI Server at the same moment?
So, if one client is connected to the RMI Server, what will happen with the other clients that want to work to do the same thing at the same moment ?

all over the same port?
so for example, 100 clients can work simultaneously on this simple server?
import java.rmi.Remote;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
public interface OkServer extends Remote {
    public String getOk() throws RemoteException;
import java.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject;
import java.rmi.RMISecurityManager;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
import java.rmi.Naming;
public class OkServerImpl extends UnicastRemoteObject implements OkServer {
    public OkServerImpl() throws RemoteException {
    public String getOk() {
     return "ok";
    public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception {
          System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());
          OkServerImpl OkSvr = new OkServerImpl();
          Naming.bind("OkServer", OkSvr);
}

Installing multiple copies of the SAME service on a BOX

This is a "Best Practice" question for BOE-XI (3.x).
I have dug through the 3.1 DEPLOYMENT training, Admin and Pattern documents, but none of them clearly discuss anything around installing multiple copies of the SAME service (eg. CMS, ReportJob) on the same physical server if it has more that 1 CPU.
The documents detail the "per CPU" limits of a service, but don't detail if we should install multiple services to take advantage of the multiple CPUs available on a specific Physical Server.
For example - the Crystal Report Job Server can support five (5) simultaneous report jobs per CPU by default.
If we have a 2 CPU machine, do we run one (1) CRJS service - but increase the "Maximum Jobs Allowed" setting to Ten (10), or do we install two (2) CRJS services each with a default limit of Five (5)...?
Does this rule apply to all services including the One (1) CPU for One-Hundred (100) simultaneous requests sizing-limit on the CMS..? That doesn't appear to be a setting we can control within the CMC.
Can you run more than one CMS service on a specific Physical Server...?
Thanks in advance for the advice.

I personally have run 20 jobs per Crystal Job server and most were dual processor dual core. I had over 1000 jobs a night, but not all at 1am...although most were within 2 hours of the same time.
I was able to get through them. However, I had 4 Crystal Job servers. Its all about your hardware being taxed.
I broke off my CMS away from the processing tier. So I could have multiple Crystal Job servers.
We had 3 processing tier servers all doing Crystal Jobs and Webi jobs. I had 60 running at one time for Crystal. 20 per job server.
i could have added the Crystal job servers to the same server, but the hardware was getting busy.
I would have at least 2 CMS's as they support 500 concurrent users (Sessions?) each.
This helped us - and we had over 8k reports in our repository. We were getting bound by memory constraints.
Once you get to 64 bit OS and App, (BO XI 4.0 sometime in 2010) it will help with this problem.
The only other way in the 32 bit environment is to add servers, even VM's if you have to as long as they are different hosts, but that adds expensive BOE CPU licenses - the big caveat to that.
That's how we solved the problem...

Multiple Siebel Tool instance installed on same PC

Can we install multile Siebel Tools instance (Same version different versions) on the same PC. For example Siebel Tools 8.0.0.5, Siebel Tools 8.0.0.10, Siebel Tools 8.0.0.12.
This is required since 8.0.0.5 will be in Production which needs supports until the next release, but the development want to move to 8.0.0.10 for the next release.

We have done this.. We have two independent Siebel Environments for our two business divisions. One was on 7.7 the other on 7.8 and both were working on an upgrade to 8.1 (one to 8.1.1.3 and the other to 8.1.1.5). We were able to run all 4 version of tools on the same box.
In addition we have multiple dev environments in play so it got a bit more complex.
The previous post was spot on about installing in different directories and about the ODBC.
Right after you install the 1st client make sure you update the ODBC, otherwise it gets overwritten on the next client install.
And I would start with the lower versions first (i.e 7.7) before moving on to the newer version.
