Need advice about Oracle 10G ex

Newbie question. I have set up Oracle db express on a Redhat Linux FC 8 box. It is in a workgroup with several MS computers. I have Samba runnning on the linux box and it shows up in XP network neighborhood. N\ow I need to access the ex Db instance remotely and I keep getting session timed out or 'does not exist' in Network listener config. I thought for sure setting up Samba on the linux box would allow windows boxes to access the db from their own Oracle clients but it is not happening. What am I doing wrong/
TIA Dan

I am trying to use Enterprise manager from a winblows workstation and when I type in the tns_names stuff it connects for a few seconds then closes.Enterprise manager ??? XE does not have Enterprise manager , maybe you mean Database Home page ?

  • About oracle 10g release 2

    There are always some tpc-c test reports to preview the performance of new product half a year before it is available. But there is none about oracle 10g release 2 as normal. Why?

    yes, I saw that by googling... but I asked Oracle Support and they did not confirm it. I do not expect it before end of year.
    extract from tar with metalink:
    Hello Laurent Schneider
    We dont have the time frame Or release date for 10.2.0
    Details available only for next immediate patchset [for aix5] --> 10g R1 Patchset 2(10.1.0.4) which is April 04, 2005
    as you see, there is no date for 10.2. I am still waiting for 10.1.0.4...

  • Want good advice about oracle dba

    Hi Guys
    Actually i want to do some professional training in Oracle DBA...SO want advice from you guys
    i am a B.E having 2+yrs of experience in oracle ..i had done oracle dba and done 8-10 months job in dba profile but that too not on production database
    i had done dba job iin test database.
    i am very keen to pursue my career in dba but not getting a good break in that.
    so i am looking forward to do some courses in that from hyderabad,as linux ...oracle 10g DBA...RAC.present i just know oracle 9i
    At present i just know about wilshire ...
    so please tell me will it be worth going in this direction to go to hyderabad ...do course dedicatedly and then can i be able to move in production database showing some dba experience.
    or do you know some other best institutes in hyderabad...some those can also provide placement.Hyderabad is a choice because its affordable to me...courses over there are cheaper.
    please guys do suggest me..as i really need a genuiine advice.
    thank you so much in advance

    Xaheer,user8740508
    Can you point me where the OP has mentioned that he wants an institute name to be given to him? And the claims you guys are doing about these institutes being the best ones, what's the authenticity of that? Are these Oracle Education Partners, are they under the WDP program or merely just a training center providing trainings? Please stop putting names of the institutes just like that and remove the references and emails given!
    @OP,
    If you want to do training, I would suggest that you first of all get a good discussion done that what modules you want to get trained upon? I wouldn't suggest you to go to any XYZ institute but would rather ask you to do a self learning first. Start reading with the documentation and also install the latest version of Oracle(11g) on your home machine. Do give a call to Oracle University india at this number and have a discussion about what and how you should persue about the training. You can call either at 1800 425 8877 or at this number +91 80 4108 4709.

  • Need advice about IBM p6 machine with Oacle10g (release 2)

    Dear Friends ,
    We r going to make some changes to our production server . So we need some suggestions from urs . Look at the following scenario which I have to describe and plz give me some suggestions :
    1) Presently our production server is running in IBM AIX 5.3 OS (Power 5 machine) server with Oracle 10g (Release 2) .
    2) Now we are going to prepare our DR server with IBM AIX 6.1 OS (Power 6 machine) server with Oracle 10g (Release 2) Database . Now is it compatible to run Oracle10g (Relase 2 ) with the power 6 (AIX OS version 6.1) machine ?
    3) And Finally we will synchronize (as well as clustering) our production server to our DR server with the above setup . Is it possoble to do ?
    If there any prob , then plz give some advices . ... ..

    Hi,
    what do you mean with 3) Synchronize???
    What I would do:
    1) Create a physical standby on your new server (RMAN does the job for you)
    2) Do a simple switchover - your new server is now the production server
    3) If you mean with clustering: Cold failover clustering??? Then yes, this would be possible afterwards
    If you mean: RAC clustering then you'd install clusterware in step1 as well plus a 1-node-RAC - after upgrading your 5.3. server to 6.1 you'd add it as a 2nd node to the existing one node RAC

  • Need to setup Oracle 10g Sandbox for Class

    Hello all,
    This is the first time I am teaching a class on Oracle 10g. I would like some advice on how to do the initial setup of the database. I have 14 students in my class. I want to create each of them an account and I want each of them to be able to create tables in a sandbox. I do not want student A to be able to see student B's tables or do anything to them. I would like each student to be able to create tables with the same name. If Student A creates a table called Inventory, Student B should be able to create a table called Inventory without colliding with Student A's table. What would be a simple way to do this? Thank you!

    Sorry if you took it wrong, but it was not clear from your first post.
    So, to try to give a "better" answer, assuming you have only one database for all your student, you should not be afraid they "see" tables from eachother.
    Oracle allow multiple times same object name hosted by different users, as long as they have no public synonym.
    You should create the users with the minimum rights you want they will do (create table, create view) without forgot create session and quota against the proper tablespace, and probably you should give them a default tablespace as well. But avoid any powerful rights like DBA, RESOURCE and CONNECT, they would be able then to fire some commands you want to avoid.

  • Need advice about zip rar files

    Here's wishing you all a very happy New Year!! Mr Greenhorn is back again! I have a question about zip and rar files. As some of you may remember, this is my first Mac, so I'm used to using the zip/rar programme on my old Windows O/S. Now I receive zip/rar files and can't open them. What is anyone's advice about downloading the zip/rar programme onto my Mac? Any particular pro's and con's? Any particular site to download from? Now my Mac has a compression programme included which converts files to zip files, but is that compatible to the actual zip/rar programme? And finally, where is the advantage to compressing files? Is it only for uploading or is there some benefit to having files 'compressed' on your actual laptop?

    Hi There
    Mac OS X has a built in Archive Utility which doesn't support .rar files. To uncompress rar files you will need a utility like RAR Expander or Stuffit Expander both are free. I suggest doing a search on MacUpdate (http://www.macupdate.com) or VersionTracker (http://www.versiontracker.com) to find a programme that you like.
    I personally don't see any advantage with keeping compressed files on your laptop (unless the archives being used often for emailing, uploading to websites etc). Compressing files does save disk space but if you get to the point where you need to compress your files to gain disk space then I suggest buying an external HD or a bigger internal HD.
    Hope this helps

  • Need advice about coalesce and deallocate unused space

    Hi experts;
    Here looking for an advice about coalesce and deallocate unused space.
    I got this tablespace with 87% full, one of the table in that tablespace has 1,150,325 records.  I'm going to delete 500,000 records from that table, but to release the space used by those records I understand that I need to execute other procedure. I was reading about coalesce tablespace and deallocate unused space.
    I found that apparently, both process can help me to free space. If you want to share with me your comments, about  advantages or disadvantages about them, in order I can take the best solution?
    Thanks for your comments.

    Hi
    after deleted rows, the high water mark is still the same and so the size of the table. you need to bring down the water mark
    here is what you need to do to bring down the high water mark. We do this monthly for performance purpose.
    This is an EBS R12 system  but the procedures are the same for EBS database or non EBS database.
    After you purge or delete data in a table
    1) alter table APPLSYS.WF_ITEM_ATTRIBUTE_VALUES move; <-- this operation will invalidate all indexes attache to the table
    2)select owner, index_name, status from dba_indexes  -- list all invalid object for user APPLSYS
    where table_owner = upper('APPLSYS')
    and
    status NOT IN ('VALID','N/A');
    3)spool idxrebuild.sql --generate script to rebuild indexes.
    select 'alter index ' ||owner||'.'||index_name ||' rebuild online;'  from dba_indexes
    where table_owner = upper('APPLSYS')
    and
    status <> 'VALID';
    4) run idxrebuild.sql   -- to rebuild indexes.  -- at this point if you check spaces on the table, it is still the same, you need to run #5
    5)exec fnd_stats.gather_schema_stats ('APPLSYS');  --fnd_stat is for EBS system you can replace with the database equivalent command.
    use this statement to count the block before and after the operation to see the different.
    select DISTINCT(SEGMENT_NAME), count(blocks) "Total Block" from dba_extents
    where
    owner IN ('APPLSYS')
    AND segment_name = 'WF_ITEM_ATTRIBUTE_VALUES'
    Hope this help.

  • Need advice about transfering files

    Hello. I just got a new mac through an education deal at school. I hate this process of transferring files from one computer to the next but have never done it from one Mac to another before so thought it would be pretty smooth. Im new to the whole Migration Assistant and so need some advice about what to do next.
    I tried using migration assistance upon first turning on my new mac but was using wireless and it just wasnt working. My computer kept saying my new mac wasnt responding and I kept having to select ok or cancel every minute and with 15 hours to go, i thought f^*# it. So I decided to just start the computer up and manually transfer files. Then I found an ethernet cable, turned file sharing on and am using my public folder to transfer but its turning into The Most Tedious task and things arent transferring properly (like certain folders arent copying contents, just the folder itself).
    Now Im wishing I could have used migration assistant from the start but what can you do. I cant just re-install the mac os software and try again because before we got our new macs they installed some programs for us, like Logic, and I dont really wanna mess with that.
    Whats my best option at this stage? Ive transferred about a gig of pictures and documents over so far (and I think my old hard drive is about 60 gig full) but theres a bunch of other little things like iphoto, imovie, garageband, stickies, as well as big folders of music (and itunes - playlists etc) that I wanna make sure get copied in entirety. Will migration assistant handle that? Is it best to delete the stuff Ive transferred so far and let it start fresh? What would you do?
    Sorry my post is so long
    Message was edited by: girrrl

    Also, now that I have an ethernet cable, if I go ahead and use migration assistant to transfer the account from my old computer, will Logic only be available through the new account I have set up on my new computer? Would I have to log out of one account and into the other and back and forth to access the different files/programs? Any help would be much appreciated

  • Need advice about making a application log over every task succsessfully done to a target

    Hi!!!
    I need an advice about how to make an application log over every task succsessfully done to a target with an unique ID.
    I have developed an application with several tasks on the menu which have to be done in a certain order to program and test a target board,

    Do somebody have any good advice on how this can be done in a cleaver way ?
    Best regards,

  • Need to download Oracle 10g client - 64 bit

    I have to move many of my applications to a new server, and this one is a win2008, 64-bit system.
    So... I need to download the oracle 10g client - but 64-bit version, and SQL Plus.
    But I can't find it. I found 2 big files under databases for 11g, but I want the client; I don't want to set up a new database system. I just want to install the client so my software can continue to talk to existing databases.
    Thanks,

    If apps are 32-bit their libraries (e.g. Oracle Client libs) are 32-bit also - regardless if host system is 64-bit or not.

    I just want to install the client so my software can continue to talk to existing databases.Use the See All links to find the Database Client media, or direct link (for 11.2, win32)

    However - simplest way of supplying OCI libraries is by Instant Client.
    It's just a few files and not even a real "install", just drop the files in PATH or in same folder as app executable file.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/instant-client/index-097480.html
    (and if you find it's not suitable for your specific apps, then you could always remove and install the traditional Client package)
    If you have ODP.Net, Asp.Net or OLE DB apps, then look for the ODAC package with Xcopy Deployment. It builds on Instant Client (and it is included).

  • Need to download Oracle 10g XE in English

    In my account, preferred language is 'English'. But when I download the installer for Oracle 10g XE, it's always in Spanish. Do I need to set anything else? TIA.

    Yes. I downloaded "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition (Universal)". Then renamed it ("OracleXEUniv") to have the '.exe' extension, ran it, and Install Wizard was in Spanish.
    Note: I also updated my account to 'French' as preferred language before downloading, but the installer was still in Spanish.

  • I need advice about being part of the Twitter Army of Awesome Help

    I am grateful for the fact of Mozilla and I use Twitter a lot.
    Although I am not technically competent, I do have experience of using Mozilla and Thunderbird for quite some years and am willing to share my experience.
    I obviously do not want to make matters worse for questioners and need some advice about how to begin.
    Is there a Forum where Folk such as me can share experiences of answering Tweets and also just be given examples how the system works, please, or might it be better for me to resign before I start rather than cause complications for anyone?

    Thanks - I hope to have a check there, when I have more time, meanwhile I see that separately I have been sent an email asking for my experience etc.. -
    I plan to attend to that when I am less pressed for time, it may not be for some while though - my spirit is willing but resources few, but if I just learn to do some small things it spreads the load - and I guess I have made a very small start - I have wondered about it for years but that Awesome Tweet was the prompt that got me this far!
