Multiple pacman instances

Hi apeiro, do you remember, when I asked you why pacman would not run in two instances at the same time, you said that it's a security option? I thought about that, and have a suggestion: can you just cut some version-checking source from pacman and make a little programm that would be able to display a version of some package, while doing something like, for example: pacman -Syu ? This seems to me to be the easiest variant, but maybe you could make pacman able to check version of packages, while it's doing some other jobs.
Just an Idea 

pacman 2.5 now allows to have several simultaneous read access and still one write access to the db: so querying is now possible during an upgrade.
I know this feature was already mentionned in the news section, but this is to shorten the list of "unanswered" posts on the forum.

  • Can there be multiple ASM instances on single node?

    Can there be multiple ASM instances on single node?
    This one says No : http://www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/02-2008/msg00317.html

    ...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

    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.

  • Multiple Tomcat instances on the same server

    Can we have multiple tomcat instances load balanced on the same physical box without VM. Has there been any such implementations. How can CMS be distributed across. What can the know architecture for the same.
    Regards
    Vijsy

    This can be done, but it really depends on the load balancer you use.
    There is no recommendation from BusinessObjects and you might want to consult the load balancer vendor for instructions and support.

  • 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

  • Need to get data from multiple database instances in a single query

    Hi,
    I need a small favour from you guys. The prob is as follows:
    I need to get name, row_id from table A from schema 1 and gbu_name, name from table B from schema 2 where a.name = b.name. I wrote the query in the following manner:
    SELECT a.name, a.row_id, b.gbu_name
    FROM Schema1.A as a, Schema2.B as b
    Where a.name = b.name
    But this query is not working and the error is like " The table does not exists".
    Please update me how to avoid the error and get the right sort of result.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Debabrata

    Ah, youre actually asking different things.
    In your topic title, you say youre running separate instances
    In your body text, you say you are under different user/schema
    So tell me, do you have more than one database or not? How many entries in your TNS file?
    I would say, for "multiple database instances"
    SELECT
      a.id, b.id
    FROM
      tableA a
      INNER JOIN
      tableB@OTHER_DATABASE_LINK_NAME b  <--NOTE!
      USING(id)And of course you will have to look up CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK sql..

  • 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.

  • 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 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 ?

  • 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
    Sannidhi

    I 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.

  • Multiple BW Instance question

    Getting lost wading through the plethora of information available, so any direct pointers to information that directly addresses the following would be appreciated, in addition to any direct answers of course!
    Consider a multiple BW instance, with a staging layer, and integration layer, and multiple analytic layers (one large one, and a couple smaller ones that operate at different service levels).
    If we upgrade staging to 3.5, do all the rest have to tag along (staging feeds integration and one other, integration gets data from staging and feeds all the rest).
    If we upgrade to 7.0, or whatever they are going to call it, will every system have to upgrade, or are the BW to BW connections backwardly compatable.
    Major reason for considering this architecture is the ability to have a couple target BW's at higher or lower releases/service pack levels as warranted by the specific applications using them (e.g. SEM wanting SP's faster than the uber BW can test and apply them).   However, if we have to keep all systems in synch, then this is NOT a viable option.
    Mark Marty
    EBIS Architect
    Mckesson

    This is based on some work being done by another member of the Terabyte club, and we have similar sized landscapes.
    The key concerns are, with a single instance of BW, and ~ 10M rows of raw transactions migrating into the system each night (SD - BO, DD, SO's, MM, COPA, it all adds up), it is not clear to us that BW could handle all data rationalization, transformation and dissemination tasks. We have significant legacy transactions and master data that needs to be merged with a good portion of the R/3 data.
    In our current environment, 90% of this is done outside of BW, using Datastage and a Data Provisioning Area.  Even with sending only clean, merged, ready to load to target data, our load windows are increasing, and our backup window is scary.
    This new effort is an attempt to separate key data needs so that certain things that need to be more responsive can be made available earlier.  Additionally, this landscape is going to test out and prove or disprove the ability to do this volume of ETL wholly within a BW environment, rather than leveraging on other marketplace tools and techniques.  Needless to say, this is a hot topic, internally we have a slant towards best in breed, and consultatively everyone wants it all to be the SAP suite of tools.   Hence, we will build it and see.
    Splitting Staging from Integration is not necessary (likely) from a purely technical need, however it has proven useful at another company, and we are going to explore it and determine the efficacy ourselves.
