Multiple Oracle Instance
i am having 2 seperate Oracle 10g database servers,one is window based,second is AIX based (unix based), Can any one tell me, how can i create 2 instance for a database in unix and 2 instance for a database in windows.
what will be the command or options and recommendation/pre-request for both installation.
Regards,
M. Aamir
Hi
If you are referring databases as instances then you can simply use the GUI to create as many databases as you like. You can invoke it through command prompt by typing DBCA or you can go to
Start->Programs->Oracle-home->Config&MigTools->Database Configuration Assitant.
If you want seperate "instances" then you need to create seperate initxx.ora files with required parameters for memory etc.
If, however, you require High Availability then you should read doc on RAC. It requires shared storage (SAN or NAS) etc. You can have multiple instances for same database.
Hope it helps.

Hi
Can u people help me in installation of multiple oracle instances in windows nt. I am using oracle 8i with NT. I like to start multiple oracle instances . How can I do it and how can i use svrmgrl with different instances.
please help meHi,
(On unix)
If you have installed for example two instnces ( IDs : ORCL1, ORCL2), you must do
this to start ORCL1 or ORCL2:
--- ORCL1
export ORACLE_SID=ORCL1
svrmgrl
startup
I hope it works on NT
Bye.
---so for ORCL2

Multiple oracle instances in single SLD
Hi
There is requirement from management that they need a seperate database in the present SLD (DEV,QAS,PRD). Since they plan to move this database in future to another SLD. I have gone through some SAP notes that u can have multiple SAP systems and underlying databases on a single host. Also I noted that u need to have a seperate transport directory.
My doubt is since SAP SID requires a Database SID during the installation. So how this new database can be incorporated in the present system.
If any white papers,pitfalls are highly appreciated.
ThanksHi Erick
It is the same oracle version i.e 9i rel.2. we need a seperate oracle insance. My concern is even though u installed a new database making it available in the present DEV,QAS,PRD is a problem. How the existing Dialog instances will recognise this new oracle instance.
what i came to know from the documents is that u need to have a seperate SAP systems and underlying the new database is quite possible and u need to take care of sizing. I searched on the net but couldn't find a similar scenario.
Any other inputs are higly appreciated.

Timesten Database caching multiple oracle instances
Hi All,
I need to cache two oracle users which are running on different IP. Can Timesten support this ?
How do i cache another datastore , if one user is already cache in timesten .This means One timesten can cache one single oracle database. ?
CJ>> Correct. One TimesTen database can cache data from one Oracle database. Note that a TimesTen instance (installation) supports multiple TimesTen databases.
Is there any other way to shrink permsize ?
CJ>> There is no other way to shrink PermSize. And you can only shrink it if the currently configured size is larger than you really need.
How can i deploy timesten on RAC?
CJ>> The same way as you would for a single instance database. A RAC database is just a single database. TimesTen fully supports RAC.
Is there any similar feature available like RAC ?
CJ>> TimesTen provides 'Cache Grid' where you can have multiple TimesTen caches which are caching the same Oracle database work together to act as a single distributed cache. -
Utility for handling multiple Oracle instances (docs, changes, etc.)
Please, remove this topic if it's not appropriate for this forum.
I handle several databases (up to 50), and I would like to have some utility for handling them in way to have:
- graphical GUI for their physical location
- to keep info about all changes that I make on those instances
- keep info about various properties (DB version, log_mode, last backup, etc, etc...)
is there such utility (maybe even not from Oracle)
tnxhaven't find a useful one, so I'm closing it

Multiple Database Instances on Single Server and effect of NLS_LANG
What is the effect of the NLS_LANG registry setting on a Windows server that is to host multiple database instance each created with a different database character set ? The server needs to support data in the following languages : Thai, Chinese Traditional, Chinese Simplified, Vietnamese and Korean. Selecting the Unicode character set(AL32UTF8) is not an option since the application is not Unicode complaint.
My understanding is that as long as NLS_LANG is set correctly on the client connecting to the particular database instance then the data will be stored correctly - is this correct ?
What should NLS_LANG be set to on the server if there are multiple oracle instances with different character sets ?My question is not in relation to connecting to the database on the server itself but with regards to client connections. What I need to know is what is the effect of the NLS_LANG setting in the registry on a server that has multiple databases each created with a different character set ?
Say for instance, the server has two databases - one created with the character set ZHS16GBK and the other created with the character set JA16SJIS and NLS_LANG is set to SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.ZHS16GBK in the registry on the server. Will Japanese data that is inserted into the database that has character set JA16SJIS be stored correctly when it is inserted from a client with NLS_LANG set to JAPANESE_JAPAN.JA16SJIS even though NLS_LANG is set to SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.ZHS16GBK on the server ? -
Hi,
We had a SAP Netweaver engine (ABAP stack) installed with Oracle 9i in a server. We wanted to install XI instance in the same machine. So we installed the XI instance with a new Oracle 10g database. Now, we are not able to start the old Oracle server. However we are able to start and stop the new Oracle database.
Can multiple Oracle instances can be installed in the same machine?
Regards,
VenkatHi,
yes, they can.
But you have to take care about environment variables.
You have to move Oracle related from system environment variable %PATH% into the %PATH% of corresponding SAP (<sid>adm) user for corresponding Oracle.
Sample:
System Path: ...c:\windows\system32... %OHOME10%\bin;%OHOME9%\bin....
Correct:
System Path: ...c:\windows\system32... - nothing related to %ORACLE_HOME% here
<sid1>adm Path: ... %OHOME10%\bin... etc
<sid2>adm Path: ... %OHOME9%\bin... etc
Then login under <sid1>adm or <sid2>adm correspondingly and make your admin activities.
see also, parts "Multiple Oracle Homes", "Setting Up Multiple Homes" in "SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR2 ABAP on Windows: Oracle" installation guide

One Oracle Application Server and multiple OC4J Instances
While we are getting new server (for development) we have to set-up a Development and Production enviroment for our project (dont have previous OAS installation) but on the same machine.
So, is a good option to have One OAS INstallation (Ora Home) and then create multiple OC4J instances, one for each environment (Development, QA and Production)?, is it possible? How to manage deployments between OC4J instances, simulating different contexts if they are in the same server and under the same HTTP Server? Will be there conflicts?Hi,
you can do this and OracleAs will manage the different instances. The deployment can be done with Enterprise Manager in which case you select the OC4J instance first before deploying. If deploying from JDeveloper, you can specify the OC4J instance when creating the named connection

Can there be multiple ASM instances on single node?
Hi,
Can there be multiple ASM instances on single node?
This one says No : http://www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/02-2008/msg00317.html
And This one says Yes : http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/3571371
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Harsha
Edited by: user498756 on Sep 11, 2008 2:23 AM...that document doesnt say you cannot have multiple ASM instances on a node. It says "...ASM, +you only need one ASM+ instance for that computer, to manage the two database instances that use ASM."
The fact that you only need one - and I cannot think of a good reason to have more than one - does not preclude the fact that you do seem to be able to have multiple ASM instances on a single node, each looking after its own set of disks and diskgroups.
Again - I cannot think of a good reason to do so though!

How To Install Multiple OBIEE Instances On One Linux Machine
Hi,
OS: Red Hat ES 5.2
OBIEE : 10.1.3.4
We one development server(Linux) where one OBIEE 10.1.3.4 was installed with os user as 'ora1a' (Deployed on Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.4)
and now I have installed OBIEE 10.1.3.4 on same Linux Server with different user(ora2b) and different mount point (Deployed on Another Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.4 )
But My OBIEE was not working and I came to know that only one can be working by default.
After following few notes i have update NQSConfig.inc and odbc.ini with different ports ie from 9704 to 9725 and bounced BI server and presentation server
But still its not working can any one tell me what are all needs to update to make it work
Thanks in advance

Reference's i used: HOW TO: Install Multiple OBIEE Instances On One UNIX Machine (Doc ID 605582.1)Hi
I was not much clear about what you are telling
See my first OBIEE instance URL is http://hostname18.oracle.com:7777/analytics (As i deployed OBIEE on Application server 10g(OAS1))
and second one is http://hostname18.oracle.com:7778/analytics (As i deployed OBIEE on another Application server 10g(OAS2))
Also My port for first OBIEE instance is 9704 and second one is 9725(Which i changed to this)
Now tell me what are all i should update

How Can I Use Multiple Weblogic Instances in a Single OS
Hello Everyone,
Actually I have to install Some different applications. Few of them need weblogic 10.3.6 and others need 10.3.4. The OS am using is Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.
Now I am able to install 2 separate(One of 10.3.4 and 10.3.6) instances with two different users,In two different directories.
I have installed the weblogic 10.3.6 version with a user webadmin and installed node manager with port 5556. This is working fine.
The main problem here is :
In the second instance (10.3.4 ) installed with a a different user and gave the port number to NodeManager as 1600 and its not getting started. Its throwing error and also after some errors in the terminal am able to see that its reverting to port number 5556 only.
What might be the issue?
I have to install 2 different versions of weblogic in a single Server. But am failing with NodeManager. What Can I do to have multiple weblogic instances with multiple versions in a single server ?
Can anyone suggest a resolution for this please ?
Thanks in advance.Pl do not spam these forums with multiple posts - How Can I Use Multiple Weblogic Instances in a Single OS

Multiple AIA instances on same server?
Hi,
Does anyone know how to install multiple AIA instances on the same SOA server? The installer hints that this might be possible, although I have not seen how this is done because the installer expects an empty oracle home path. The only information I have found so far is for an earlier 2.x release of AIA and that suggested:
"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."
Is this true?
Thanks,

Hi Laxman,
If its a testing purpose its ok to have a one oracle_home and single listener for multiple DB. One problem when applying oracle patches for one of the instances running in a multiple DB running then you need to bring all the DB running in that host since the oracle_home is sharing between all db instances.
Thanks
Sunil Rajesh K.C.Starting with 11g, patchset updates are full installs and done into a new home. This makes it possible to migrate one instance at a time. However, your point would be a consideration for one-off patches like CPUs.
However, please note ... OP --- PLEASE NOTE even with multiple oracle homes, you still only need a single listener. -
Multiple ASM instances on a single node
Can i have multiple ASM instances on a single node? This is to have each instance supporting different environment dev,stage etc
Thanks
SannidhiI had been discussing the same issue with someone from Oracle. I asked for multiple ASMs on a server so that we could have seperate ASMs running for, say, 10g and 11g.
He explained that we should think of ASM as being the same as Veritas FileSystem. We don't run multiple instances of Veritas on our servers. On single Veritas "instance" (set of drivers) provides all the Veritas Fx mountpoints on the server. Similarly, there should be only 1 ASM instance on a server.
(substitute UFS or ZFS or CFS for Veritas in the above example and you still have only 1 filesystem manager on a server providing one type of filesystem, although you could have, say , UFS and Veritas co-exist ; just as you could have Veritas, ASM and Raw co-exist on a server).

Multiple ASM Instances on single node
Hi All,
After going through some threads it seems to me that multiple ASM instances on a node is not supported and recommended by ORACLE but i coudn't find any ORACLE document or support matrix mentioning this. Can any one give me a pointer to this. Please correct me if i am wrong and Multiple ASM instances are fully supported by ORACLE.
Thanks,Multiple ASM instances on a single node are supported but not recommended due to several issues you could encounter during that kind of configuration.
Possible interraction between those instances for identification of each disk area usage,each disk area permissions , database instance to asm instance mapping and so on, could result in unwanted behaviour, as ASM is in some way just oracle's representation of LVM.
Intention is that any kind of distinction/separation of oracle related data under the ASM should be done through the disk groups.
So it seems it would be better to apply this kind of logic rather than doing suspiciously magical and rare configurations that could bring you similiary strange and unexpected problems.
