New database settings.

Hello All,
I am using "Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.7.0 - Production" with windows 2003 - 32 bit server. Total RAM size in the server is 10GB.
I am going to setup a database for our application which is new to me.
we are running 2 application which are using this oracle server. One application in the forms 6i, and one more in the "Visual foxpro" . Total number of users are 250 and avarage user logins are 200.
The current database server is running in the 4GB RAM, and in the noarchive mode. We use to get the memory issue in the current server. Also we would like to run the database in the archive mode due to business requirment.
For the backup, we are using import command. we are planing to use the RMAN for the backup and recovery.
1) Database setup.
2) Setting parameter.
3) Setting listener.
4) Setting RMAN backup.
5) Setting memory.
6) Setting archivelog mode.
Can any body suggest what are the parameter setting required for the above requirment.
Thanks,
SUN

1) database setup - i think you are talking about database creation. if so, you can do it using DBCA tool which is pretty easy
2) setting parameter - i assume you asking about memory related parameters. you can set exactly what you are following now
3) setting listener - you can create it using netca
4) setting archivelog mode - you can place in archivelog mode using http://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&q=steps+to+place+9i+database+in+archivelog+mode&meta=&aq=f&oq=
5) setting rman backup - this you can do using scripts and templates are available in google
6) setting memory - follow the same values as earlier database.
let me know if required more details

New Database parameter settings

I have a new Windows server with Oracle 11g, Windows 2008 R2, 4 CPU and 10 G of memory.
I had another server that had 2 cpu and 5 G of memory but the Oracle database was not utilizing the memory appropriately (I am also New to Oracle)
So I am setting up the new database to use 8G for the SGA and PGA this time on this new server. One thing I noticed in the last test of the application on the previos server was that the bottleneck appeared to be the Buffer cache hit ratio and shared pool....it also appeared to be extremely IO intesive however the network adapeter never spiked above 12%. So all of the contention was or seemed to be in the database.
With the new server should I increase the db_block_buffer parameter? It is currently defaulted to 0?
Any help would be appreciated. The application we are setting this up for is extremely cursor intensive and we cannot change the code.

How did you measure that oracle is not using the memory properly? Oracle is not supposed to use the complete physical memory anyways. It can use only what is going to be set for it.
<font color="red"> I was watching spotlight for Oracle and the server perfmon counters and never saw any real work....Physical IO appeared high the total SGA area was 888MB and the appliation that goes against it is cursor intensive....at the time a tester was running a search and sort of 14,000 records and it took 18 minutes. My thought, however wrong I might be, was that the SGA could be sized much larger to take advantage of the memory on this server, and hopefully reduce the time it is taking </font>

Using the hit ratios to tell that there was a contention or bad performance is not such a good idea. If hit ratio was the only criteria that you used or had , I wouldn't call it a right move to make.

This parameter is obsoleted and not in the current release of 11g but since 9i. So you should not bother about this parameter at all.

So if its creating lots of cursors , it is possible that the application is using lots of literals and constants which can be reduced using the parameter Cursor_sharing.

How to crate a new database

I have installed the XE edition and the home page and all works. What I would like to do is create a simple database and have an application talk to it via OLEDB. Two problems with that:
1) If you want to create a new database, the simplest option is to use the Database Configuration Assistance (DBCA). But that doesnt come with XE and you dont appear to be able to download it.
Your next option is to use SQL statements. The manual contains some info but it states that your DBA will typically create the database using SQl scripts. It does give some snippets as to what you might do, but it is not complete and hence fails if you try it (bad docs!). I found a few other web pages that contain some commands, e,g this one:
http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html
which I am about to try next.
Why is creating a new DB using Oracle so hard? Took me 10 min on MySQL and SQL Server. Surely for test purposes if you just want a simple database with default settings, it should be easy to create?
2) Visual Studio 2003 lets you do a database connection test. So with Oracle XE installed, I did a connection test using "Microsfot OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" and I choose local host and give it my admin user name and password. It says "Test connection failed because of an error initializing provider. SQL Server does not exist or access denied". I also installed ODAC101040 which is supposed to install the Oracle OLEDB driver. So if I try and do a connection test for the "Oracle Provider for OLE DB". Just selecting it gives you "OraOLEDBplus10.dll - The specific module could not be found". So what does ODAC101040 install really then?
Any ideas?

I will take the first part of this (BTW - it's often better to have seperate threads for seperate questions - makes it easier to track).
The concept of a database in SQLServer and MySQL is different than the concept of a database in Oracle. In Oracle, we use the concept of a schema to seperate logical objects in a name space, SQLServer and MySQL use a database. We also then use the concept of a tablespace to seperate how physical objects are stored, as opposed to how a database is used in SQLServer and MySQL.
In XE, you can have as many schemas and tablespaces as you want. So instead of looking at CREATE DATABASE (which is really complicated, and not really doing what you think it is doing), you should be instead be considering CREATE USER (creates a schema in which you can then create database objects) and CREATE TABLESPACE (creates a physical storage location). Having said that, XE defaults the physical storage locations to a generic tablespace called USERS, as an aid to simplicity, but you can create your own tablespaces if you wish.
CREATE USER is docced in the 2 DAY DBA guide for XE. CREATE TABLESPACE is in the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 doc - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_7003.htm#SQLRF01403
So the question really is - what is if that you are wanting to do when you are trying to create a database in Oracle ? What is the problem you are trying to solve ?

Problems wit creating a new database on solaris wit dbca ORA 09925/ORA-1031

Hi Oracle users,
I'm using Oracle 10gR2 on Solaris and try to create a new database
instance.
I'm using dbca for that task. After making all the settings I get the error
ORA-09925 and then ORA-1031.
For the second error I found the advice to run te root.sh to be sure that
all user privileges for local logins are correct.
But tis didn't help.
Do you have an advice for me ?
Best regards,

Migration Asstt - how to transfer database + settings from old MBA to MBP?

Hi all,
I just bought a new MacBook Pro and would like to transfer all my database + settings from the old MBA.
I used Migration Assistant and transferred all the database alright, but the settings were not.
I can see the folders like "Applications", "Movies", "Musics", etc under the new username, but I am not allowed to open them up.
What do I do to also transfer the settings & applications that I had in the old MBA to the new MBP?
What about items like Address Book & Calendar?
Thank you!

Connection problem with new database

Hi
Installed new database on my windows machine successfully
while connectting as sys user error
ORA-12500:TNS: listner failed to start dedicated server process
wlile connecting toad and sqlplus

Please read the error again "listner failed to start dedicated server process". Means what, listner listened your request to connect, it tried to hand-off the connect request but due to resources problem (lack of memory) it is not possible to start server process; i.e. presumably the server is very busy at that time. If you are not able to resolve the issue, please check the unwanted services and stop them in strat-run-services.msc.

New database connection failed with oepe

Hi everybody,
@http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27086_02/help/oracle.eclipse.tools.common.doc/html/install.html#install_oepe
Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse Installation Guide says:
"You can install OEPE using any of the following ways:
Download, and then unzip OEPE plugins directly into the Eclipse dropins folder and restart Eclipse."
This is what I have done,
then when I create a new database connection, and I press the button "test connection" i got a pop up saying "Ping failed" giving details:

The documentation is out of date. The unzip to dropins method is no longer supported. The OEPE zip you downloaded is actually an archived repository. You can follow the instruction for installing using Eclipse Update Manager and point to the downloaded zip instead of the online repository.
I will follow up to get the docs updated.

Creating a new database in Oracle Database 10g...

I have downloaded a copy of Oracle Database 10g Express Edition from Oracle's website. I am using Windows XP. I am trying to create an Oracle database that I can connect to from Access 2003 via ODBC.
1. How do I create a new database? I can see options to create tables, views, etc. but not a database.
2. I have created a System DSN connection in the ODBC Data Source Administrator for the Oracle ODBC driver. Once I create a database in Oracle, how do I actually establish a connection to it from Access? The ODBC code to connect is there, but when I run it, I get an error.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

1. How do I create a new database? I can see options to create tables, views, etc. but not a database.If you can see those options then you are already connected to the database. You probably want to create a user, not a database (are you by chance coming from SQL Server?)
driver={OracleDriver};Dbq=TESTDBQ;Uid=Administrator;Pwd=;You would replace "Administrator" with the name of the user you created in the database.

How can I create a new database?

Hi,
can anyone tell me the steps I have to do if I want to create a new database? Can I perform this operation from the console of the Enterprise Manager or from the DBA studio?
Thank you.

You can use DBAssist to create Database of your own desire. No need to go anywhere if u r working on 8i.
If this sounds good to u then steps can be followed.

Access key needed when creating a new database table with SE11

Hi,
I'm using SAP Testdrive (evaluation) on linux in order to learn a bit about ABAP programming. I want to create a new database table in the dictionary to be used in my programs. I proceed in the following way:
1) I run the SE11 transaction
2) At the first entry I write the name of the table to be created (in the Database Table field)
3) I click on the create button.
But then the system asks me an Access Key to register, where can I get this?
Thanks in advance,
Kind Regards,
Dariyoosh

Ok I found the answer to my question in another thread
Developer Key
Make sure that your program names starts with "Z" or "Y", otherwise the system will ask you to register the object because it thinks you are creating/changing in the SAP namespace.
In fact this was my error, my table name didn't start with neither "Z" nor "Y".
Kind Regards,
Dariyoosh

Creating a new database in a new Oracle home

Hi,
I'd like to add a new database using dbca, but I want it in a different Oracle Home to the other databases on the server. I notice that in the dbca I do not get an option to specify a new Oracle home. I assume it is because this tool is only for database creation and not instance creation. Do I therefore need to do a full Oracle install in order to create a second Oracle home?
Many thanks.
****Ignore this, I know what I'm doing now****
Edited by: user11201026 on Aug 6, 2009 3:52 AM

You need to better understand what an ORACLE_HOME is. An Oracle home has nothing to do with a Oracle database.
ORACLE_HOME defines the location of an installation of an Oracle software installation.
Where you decide to put a database is irrelevant to the location of an ORACLE_HOME.
One ORACLE_HOME can have zero, one, or many databases.
But you can not have an ORACLE_HOME without an installation of Oracle software.
The concept docs are at http://tahiti.oracle.com.

Creating a new company in a new database

I am attempting to create a new company, but want it in a separate database. (Just like creating a Sandbox for development and testing.) However, when I choose to create the new company (specifying company name, accounting periods, etc.), B1 will not let me specify a new database name. It is forcing me to select an existing B1 database.
Is there a Procedure to create a new (clean copy) of a B1 database that I can subsequently use to create the new company in????
Thanks for any help you can give me...

Hello,
Do one thing first take a backup of SAP company from SQL.
then make new database using Sufix and prefix Test_ then restore that database which you have taken backup.
Now You can login in your test database in SAP.

Create a new database in foxpro , msaccess dynamically

hello,
i am writing an application in which depending on the users selection a database will be created dynamically .i.e if he selects oracle or foxpro or access it will create a new database using the dsn supplied by the user and then creates the tables in that particular database .
i would like to know how to create a new database from within a class file for foxpro or msacces dynamically.
thanks for the help

hi,
thanks for ur response.
i have no problem in creating tables
my application does that, but i wanna know how to create a new database so that the tables that are created for a particular clients data are stored in a database specific for that client only , i.e. when his work is over he can completely discard the database by dropping it and can create new database when he wants to start a new database related to different client.
i would like to know how to create that database file, system or file dsn dynamically.

Create a new Database in an other server using a copie of RMAN backup

Hi all,
I want to create an other instance for our production database. We have disk and tape in rman backup. My question is can i create a new database using our disk backup in an other server?
If some procedure or steps is there, email it to my adresse [email protected]
Hamid.
Thanks

By means of the use of Recovery Manager it is possible to duplicate a database out from a previously taken rman backup. The method will be outlined in the next few lines.
Let's assume a source database named SRCDB and the target database, named GEMINI. A unix like environment is assumed, but it can be implemented on windows as well, just beware of the particular Oracle implementation on a windows platform (orapwd file name, service creation, path format)
1. Create a password file for the Cloned (GEMINI) instance:
orapwd file=/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0/dbs/orapwGEMINI password=password entries=10
2. Configure tnsnames.ora and listner.ora
Properly identify the database at the tnsnames.ora and have the instance manually registered against the listener.ora files, both files located at the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory.
2.a Manually register the database against the listener (listener.ora)
(SID_DESC =
(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0)
(SID_NAME = GEMINI)
2.b Added the target GEMINI to the tnsnames.ora
GEMINI =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost.mydomain.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(ORACLE_SID = GEMINI)
2.c Reload the listener
lsnrctl reload
3. Create a new init.ora for the cloned database.
Next create an init.ora file for the cloned database. In case the same paths cannot be used on the target host, either because it is the same source host or because those paths are not reproducible on the target, then DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT may be required to be defined
DB_NAME=GEMINI
CONTROL_FILES=(/u02/oradata/GEMINI/control01.ctl,
/u02/oradata/GEMINI/control02.ctl,
/u02/oradata/GEMINI/control03.ctl)
# Convert file names to allow for different directory structure.
DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=(/u02/oradata/SRCDB/,/u02/oradata/GEMINI/)
LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=(/u01/oradata/SRCDB/,/u01/oradata/GEMINI/)
# block_size and compatible parameters must match those of the source database
DB_BLOCK_SIZE=8192
COMPATIBLE=9.2.0.0.0
4. Connect to the cloned instance
ORACLE_SID=GEMINI; export ORACLE_SID
sqlplus /nolog
conn / as sysdba
5. Create an SPFILE based on the init.ora
CREATE SPFILE FROM PFILE='/u01/app/oracle/admin/GEMINI/pfile/init.ora';
6. Start the database in NOMOUNT mode:
STARTUP FORCE NOMOUNT;
7. Connect to the TARGET, CATALOG and AUXILIARY databases.
By means of the rman three connections are open, one for the Source Database (SOURCEDB), another for the Catalog database (RCAT), and one more for the cloned database (GEMINI)
ORACLE_SID=GEMINI; export ORACLE_SID
rman TARGET sys/password@SRCDB CATALOG rman/rman@RCAT AUXILIARY /
8. Complete or Incomplete clone (recover)
From the rman the database using one of the following commands:
8.a Clone the database by means of a complete recover.
DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO GEMINI;
8.b Clone the database up to a defined point in time in the past by means of an incomplete recover
DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO GEMINI UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE-2';
9. Process finished.
Once the process is finished, the newly created GEMINI database is ready to be used as an independent new cloned database.

SSMS crash when creating new database diagram

For several years I have been unable to create database diagrams from within SSMS. I have tried every combination of VS2005, VS2008, VS2012 and VS2013 with every combination of SQL2005, SQL2008, SQL2012 and SQL2014.
I have installed, uninstalled, and repaired many dozens of times. I am currently using VS2013 ultimate with SQL2014 express.
I have tried every related 'workaround' that I can find on the internet. Still the problem persists.
Any help would be deeply appreciated.
