Net manager talks to servers - sqlplus won't

I have just done a clean install of a 9i personal oracle database ver 2 on a new p4 xp pro system. Oracle home is set to OraHome92 for the 9i database. Seems to be working ok.
With the enterprise manager console, I can attach the 9i database, our local server and another department's remote server and view the instances, etc. So, I seem to have the listener set up properly, as I can connect to the 3 databases with enterprise manager and do successful tests with Net Manager.
The problem is that I cannot access any of the servers with tools such as Sqlplus or Toadfree or odbc - only the personal 9i database. I get TNS-12154 could not resolve service name error. What am I doing wrong?
Any help will be appreciated. Below is a copy of the config file. Is this located in the proper place?
# TNSNAMES.ORA Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\ora92\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

)

Try turning on tracing in your sqlnet.ora (same directory as your tnsnames.ora)- add the following line:
trace_level_client=16
This should generate a trace file (cli.trc) in the directory of the application you are trying to run. Hopefully it will contain more meaningful information to help resolve the error.
Another thought- what are the releases of the remote databases you are trying to connect to? Oracle 9.2 does not support connectivity to databases older than 8.1.7.
I hope this helps.

R12 DBCA won't launch/Net Manager error

Hi all
I have just installed R12 on Windows Server 2003.
When I try to launch the Database Configuration Assistant, nothing happens. The dos prompt just moves to a new line with no error. The path I'm using is E:\Oracle\db\tech_st\10.2.0\BIN\launch.exe
Also, when I click on the Net Manager, it launches fine. When I expand the Service Naming tree, I get the following error:

Oracle Net manager error

Aloha!
I have just created a database instance on oracle 11g R2. When i tried to create a connection to that said instance on net manager from a certain client machine
i'm prompted with this error:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
but on the server itself i can access the instance through SQLplus as sysdba.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Regards,
Hades

ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
Cause: The listener received a request to establish a connection to a database or other service. The connect descriptor received by the listener specified a service name for a service (usually a database service) that either has not yet dynamically registered with the listener or has not been statically configured for the listener. This may be a temporary condition such as after the listener has started, but before the database instance has registered with the listener.
Action:
- Wait a moment and try to connect a second time.
- Check which services are currently known by the listener by executing: lsnrctl services <listener name>
- Check that the SERVICE_NAME parameter in the connect descriptor of the net service name used specifies a service known by the listener.
- If an easy connect naming connect identifier was used, check that the service name specified is a service known by the listener.
- Check for an event in the listener.log file.

I see the error: ORA-12170 when I make Net Manager on Oracle DTB Client

Dear all,
I installed Oracle Database 10 g on Server, then I installed Oracle Database Client 10 g on another PC. I tested the connection database from client PC by making Net Manager on Oracle Database Client. And I see the error ORA - 12170.
Can you help me?
I want to connect database on Server to practice add Portlet by SQL/PLUS.
Thanks.

Oracle says...
ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred
Cause: The server shut down because connection establishment or communication with a client failed to complete within the allotted time interval. This may be a result of network or system delays; or this may indicate that a malicious client is trying to cause a Denial of Service attack on the server.
Action: If the error occurred because of a slow network or system, reconfigure one or all of the parameters SQLNET.INBOUND_CONNECT_TIMEOUT, SQLNET.SEND_TIMEOUT, SQLNET.RECV_TIMEOUT in sqlnet.ora to larger values. If a malicious client is suspected, use the address in sqlnet.log to identify the source and restrict access. Note that logged addresses may not be reliable as they can be forged (e.g. in TCP/IP).
Also check the following...
1) Listener status on the server.
2) Check listener.log file present in X:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\log folder to grab any error.
3) Check the result of tnsping from the client.
4) try to login by sqlplus username/password@tnsname and see what happens.

Net management port use

I am new to sun administration and still in the process of system design. I need to perform maintenance on the servers through a terminal session from a windows server 2003 machine. Can anybody recommend a terminal application that would work well for this, and can I run this terminal session through the net management port or is this port reserved for the ALOM application? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hyperterminal is usually availble on windows machine. Although not the best you are pretty much guaranteed to have it installed. TeraTerm is a good free serial port terminal client.
Usually you connect to the LOM/ALOM port with a rollover cable, or straight through cat 5 cable and the silver rj45 adapter sun supplies with the server, for a terminal connection.
The net management port is for similar remote administration but over a network. i.e. the net management port has to be setup with ip address/gateway etc. and you cable it to your switch/hub etc.

I deleted my extensions manager and now my Mac won't start up. Please Help!!

I have an IMac, 24" model, running OS X. For the past several days, little warning windows have been popping up with this annoying beep, telling me that my computer was infected with various viruses. 4, to be exact. Also, while on the internet, random pop-up windows have appeared, so I thought I did have a virus. So, to correct the matter (or attempt to), I deleted my preferences folder from the system folder, as well as the extensions manager.
Now, the computer won't start up past the white logo screen with the turning gear thingy. I've tried resetting the PRAM, and starting in safe mode, and safe mode with the progress screen, and even something there while holding the option key (that one gave me an icon of my HD, but clicking on it took me back to an endless wait on the white screen). I've tried starting from the disk that came with the computer (I held the C key) but not only doesn't the computer start from the disk, it spits the disk out. I don't understand. The computer was fine until I deleted the ext. mgr and preferences, so it can't be that the computer went bad or something.
I don't know what else to do here. I do have an extended service warranty with Best Buy, but I wanted to see if there was some way to fix this before hauling this thing off to the store. Any suggestions? I'm desperate here, because anything and everything I've tried (based on all the try-this and try-thats I found on the internet), nothing has worked.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Well done! You've succeeded in turning your Mac into a useless brick.
Deleting the System/Library/extensions folder and the associated manager removed most of the functionality from your OS.
And all to get rid of what sounds like the MacDefender trojan or a variant.
ref; http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4650 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4651
You may have a slim chance of recovering if it will still boot in Target Disc Mode; in which case you can use another Mac to install the system remotely.
And I doubt your warranty with Best Buy is going to cover user "error."

SQL 2012 Management Studio Remote Servers Service Status Slow/Stops Working

This is a huge annoyance. I manage about 50 SQL instances of SQL Server versions 2005-2012 and I noticed that it takes 1-2 seconds to load the service status (green arrow) on each individual server. If you then connect to a server, you have to
wait for all the statuses to be loaded first in the Registered Servers list before it loads the statuses for servers in the Object Explorer. This happens whether the servers are registered in Local Server Groups or Central Management Servers, and whether
I have access to all servers (as windows local administrator and sa), or not. It also happens regardless of whether I run as Administrator or normally on my instance of SSMS (which is SQL 2012 Development on Windows Server 2008 R2).
These servers are also registered in alphabetical order by group and server name, which means that if I have "DEV" groups, they will be registered before "PROD", unless I rename accordingly. It sometimes takes a few minutes, if
I'm lucky, to get a server I connect to to load, which means I can't use SSMS to really manage any remote servers and start/stop/pause/resume/restart services.
Worse, sometimes due to a server becoming unavailable (due to updates/patches/failovers), SSMS is unable to load the service statuses anymore for any new server connections made to object explorer, resulting in the loss of ability to view/change service statuses.
In this case, there is no way to recover (Refresh of Central Management Servers does nothing), except to close SSMS and open it again, and then wait again for all the statuses to load.
I have lived with this since first installing SQL, and regardless of the Windows Updates and SQL patches applied, the problem has never gone away. This also happens if I load SSMS in Windows Server 2012. Its starting to become a huge issue now
that I have to patch several servers each month.
I have already checked WMI permissions, GPO, firewall, etc. as per all the suggestion on the internet, including this post
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic825246-146-1.aspx. None of these suggestions have made a difference, as my real problem is one of connectivity and performance, and
not security, which most of these suggestions apply to. Of note, all servers are in the same domain, firewall is disabled across the board, correct permissions for local administrators exist for remote registry settings, WMI, GPO, etc, and all service
accounts and windows accounts that are used are local admins and sysadmins.
My work-around has been to delete the Central Management Server and any local server group registered servers, close and re-launch SSMS, and then connect to a server I'm interested in via Object Explorer. Otherwise, close and re-launch will take forever.
My other alternative is to RDP into the remote server and manage services via SQL Configuration Manager locally.
If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, or make it go faster, I'd really appreciate it.
Diane

Hi Satish,
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Yes, I actually am already using work-arounds (i.e. methods other than SSMS) to accomplish my tasks. My issue is that this is supposed to be working and provide a nice GUI so that you can easily visualize
any issues, and address them directly, without having to hodge-podge access via scripts or 3rd-Party tools.
Since no one else has any comments, I guess there are no plans to make remote server administration work with SSMS properly then, and that kludge methods are the only ones being advocated.

SCCM 2012 Software Update Management for Windows Servers and how to automatic set SCOM maintenance mode?

Hi,
We planning to go one level higher to automat and have more dynamic Software Update Management for Windows Servers. We have SCCM 2012 R2, SCOM 2012 R2 and SCO 2012 R2.
Our plan is to pur server in an AD-Group to get Update Schedule, from the servers will be importet to an Collection for Automatic Update and reboot. If I understand Everything right SCOM can't read AD-Group and put then in an Schedule maintenance mode. SCOM
can read reg value as exempel.
IS there any smar way to make the SCOM Maintenance Mode Schedule dynamic?
I found this
http://www.scom2k7.com/scom-2012-maintenance-mode-scheduler/?
/SaiTech

You could use Orchestrator to put the servers from a specific collection, or AD group, in maintenance mode in SCOM. For an example see:

Oracle net manager is not listed....

Hi People,
Have a small problem with the installation of oracle client, for some reason oracle net manager is not installed or at least not listed in start menu programs. Does any one have an idea how to access this tool if it is not listed in the start menu? (I am pretty sure it was installed when I was running the oracle 10g client on windows Xp)
Many Thanks...

ODBC Vs Net Manager connections

Please can anyone help me?
I am using Oracle 11 release 2 and I installed Instant Client (using OUI) on a machine.
I also installed Net Manager on the Client and created a service name in order to connect to a server. When I press the test buton, the connection appears to work OK as a successful message is returned.
However, when I create an ODBC DSN using the 'instant client' driver and press the Test Connection button, I get an ORA-12170 TNS: Connect timeout occurred message.
I can do a tnsping and that retirns ok.
What can be causing odbc not to connect and net manager and tns ping to do?
My Service Name and the 'Service Naming' name are the same (i.e. orcl11).
Is there an odbc setting somewhere that I need to tweak?
I have the firewall turned off on both client and server.
Edited by: TeeChelt on 14-Jun-2012 03:42

Do you have tnsnames.ora configured in both homes? By default homes are unaware of each other, so you probably just need to copy tnsnames.ora over from the full client home into the Instant Client home. Or, at least, make sure they both have the same information in them.
Hope it helps,
Greg

How con I configure net manager for use a MS Access database as a source module in Warehouse Builder?
Thanks for any help.

I don't think you can add an Access database using the Net Manager. I'm not too clear on what you try to achieve, but I suspect that you might want to see how to connect to a non-Oracle database from Oracle in the heterogeneous manual (http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14232/toc.htm).
