ORA-01678 parameter log_file_name_convert

Hi,
in my init.ora file I have :
LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=("s:\ORADATA\DB1","u:\ORADATA\DB2","u:\ORADATA\DB1","u:\ORADATA\DB2")
And I receive this error :
ORA-01678: parameter log_file_name_convert must be two strings, a pattern and a replacement
Do you have any idea ?
Many nthanks.

Thanks, as you can see here
http://www.lc.leidenuniv.nl/awcourse/oracle/server.920
/a96536/ch1104.htm
we can have :
LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT
Parameter type
String
Syntax
LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT = [(]'string1' , 'string2' ,
'string3' , 'string4' , ...[)]
several couple of logfiles like what I have in my
init.ora file. But it does not function for me.

user522961Refer to a document at 9i, and performing actions on what you stated was 817. They are not the same.
To quote the 817 propaganda specified in my first post (had you read it closely):
The DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT parameters must have two strings. The first string is a sequence of characters to be looked for in a primary database filename. If that sequence of characters is matched, it is replaced by the second string to construct the standby database filename.
(emphasis is mine)
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A87860_01/doc/server.817/a76995/standby.htm#23603
as in the following example from the same reference:
ample: Managed Standby Database on Same Host as Primary Database
Following are some sample initialization parameter settings for a managed standby database that resides on the same host as primary database PROD1.
COMPATIBLE = 8.1.6
CONTROL_FILES = /oracle/work/standby/dbs/cf1.f
DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT = /oracle/dbs/tbs, /oracle/work/standby/dbs/standby
DB_NAME = prod1
LOCK_NAME_SPACE = stby # required for a standby on the same host as the primary
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST = /oracle/work/standby/dbs/arc/
LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT = arc_%t_%s.ar
LOG_ARCHIVE_TRACE = 8
LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT = /oracle/dbs/t1, /oracle/work/standby/dbs/standby_t1
STANDBY_ARCHIVE_DEST = /oracle/work/standby/dbs/arc/
Example: Managed Standby Database on Different Host from Primary

ORA-16024: - ORA-32004 - Parameter modification Error

Hi all,
I have two errors after modifying the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1 parameter. I've run this...
ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1='LOCATION=/u04/archive/EST OPTIONAL REOPEN=300' SCOPE=spfile;
and after restarting the instance, I found these errors
ORA-32004: obsolete and/or deprecated parameter(s) specified
ORA-16024: parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1 cannot be parsed
I checked the spfile and I discovered an error in it due this change:
*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/u04/archive/EST OPTIONAL REPO^H^HOPEN=300'
"^H^H" these characters were inserted because an stty config error and I was not able to see them.
How should I procede to recover my instance?
Thanks

Thanks! I really appreciate your help!
I have no need to do a recovery, I just wanted to say only bringing it open again.
I am not able to start it up in nomount mode...
Thanks by your help!

ThanksFirst, is your instance in need of recovery? these look like non-fatal errors to me. Since you had intended that archive destination to be optional, I presume you have another, non-optional, destination that is good?
Are you able to do a 'startup nomount'? That's as far as you need to get to issue ALTER SYSTEM commands against the spfile to correct the bad value.
And btw, you didn't need to bounce the system in the first place. log_archive_dest_n is a dynamic parameter - you could have specified scope=both and kept on trucking - or gotten an error at that time:
SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_2='location=c: lksdjf optional' scope=both;
alter system set log_archive_dest_2='location=c: lksdjf optional' scope=both
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02097: parameter cannot be modified because specified value is invalid

Init.ora file parameter 'processses' not working

When I change the number of processes in my init.ora file from the default of 30 to 200, I get an error when accessing from SQLPlus that Oracle cannot be found. I run Oracle 8.1.6i on a Solaris v7 platform. Any suggestions???

I think your database could not "be found"
'cause it isn't up.
Change the init.ora file parameter 'processses' to 'processes' and restart
the database.
Oracle refuses starting up, if there are
mistyped parameters in init<SID>.ora.

INIT.ora-COMPATIBLE parameter

Hi,
My oracle version is 11.2.0.2 but in INIT.ora the parameter COMPATIBLE is set to 10.1.0.2.0.How does it impact DB?Does it mean that optimizer will use 10.1.0.2 features? Does it affect the performance of DB/queries in any manner?How will it impact if i change the vaue of this parameter t0 11.2.0.2 in INIT.ORA?Please throw some light on it

<How the COMPATIBLE Initialization Parameter Operates
The COMPATIBLE initialization parameter operates in the following way:
It controls the behavior of your database. For example, if you run an Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) database with the COMPATIBLE initialization parameter set to 10.1.0, then it generates database structures on disk that are compatible with Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1). >
So eventhough the oracle version is 11.2.0.2.0 it works more or less like 10.1.0.2.Is my understanding correct?If so,then there is no point in upgrading oracle to 11.2 if this parameter has a lower value.Pls correct me.
Thanks.

Init.ora EVENT parameter to trace processes?

Thanks to all who read my question and offer suggestions!
I have seen in a book the ability to trace individual background processes.
It gave an example of adding the following 2 lines to the init.ora file:
event = "10246 trace name context forever"
event = "10500 trace name context forever"
After stopping and restarting it creates trace files for the PMON and SMON
processes in the Background_Dump_Dest folder.
But my question... is there any reference chart anywhere that shows you what
event numbers you would use for other background processes?
I am running 8.1.7 on Windows 2000
Thank you for your help!

InitSID.ora file parameter

Hi ,
We using ECC 6.0 with Oracle 10.2.0.2 , we need to change the parameter db_cache_sie from 294 mb to 1 gb , So i edit the file and change the parameter . Then i restart the system . After restart the system i checked the parameter it will changed to 1gb . But today i just checked the parameter , it will show the old parameter 294 mb .
So kindly tell me what is happening and tell me the solution to change the parameter .
Regards
Selvan

Hi ,
Oracle 10g always use spfile for the purpose of maintaining database parameters .So you want to make any changes then first you need to create pfile from spfile because you cannot make changes directly in spfile as its not recommended by oracle.
So first change pfile from spfile by givind command create pfile from spfile via sql prompt .Then modify the parameter in pfile & again give command create spfile from pfile & restart your databse to make the changes effective.
Or the best solution to change the database parameter is to change via sql prompt prompt eg::
alter system set <parameter>=<value> scope=spfile
Thanks..

Standby database with different directory structure

Hi,
sorry to say that we are in desupported version due to some constraint.
oracle version : 8.1.7.0.0.
os:sun 5.9
I need to create physical standby database with different directory structure:
i have created standby database with same directory structure of primary, now i have requirement to create with different directory structure.
in oracle 8i we can not give multiple parameter for db_file_name_convert(ORA-01678: parameter db_file_name_convert must be two strings, a pattern and a replacement) and i do have partitions in primary as follows:
bash-2.05$ df -h

Looks like very difficult and inform you mgmt about the drawbacks of running olderv ersions
may be you can try something like this but i dont know whether it is supported or not

1) Why 'alter system set remote_listener ='cchORdb-rac' scope=both' does not work?
2) I suspect the listener.ora may not very good. I could not find any docs on how to configure listener.ora in Oracle 11.2 RAC. It was said that it is not documented yet. Can some one share with me your listener.ora files and the listener status as output of lsnrctl status.
Thanks.

try setting with the port number

ORA-16020: fewer destinations available than specified by LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_S

Hi all,
I'm testing setup of primary and standby database and everything seems to work normally.
Now, I want to set up DG Broker so I can test switching it over and back.
So, I went through steps by Gavin (ref. http://gavinsoorma.com/2010/03/11g-data-guard-broker-dgmgrl-configuration-quick-steps/).
All went well until I showed configuration after enabling the broker.
Then I got error: ORA-16020: fewer destinations available than specified by LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
So, then I check the DG log files and on the standby database, I see errors:
2013-03-26 11:03:52.457                      Executing SQL [ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_min_succeed_dest=1 SCOPE=BOTH sid='*']

Then, primary: tstprim2
================

INCONSISTENT PROPERTIES
   INSTANCE_NAME        PROPERTY_NAME         MEMORY_VALUE         SPFILE_VALUE         BROKER_VALUESo, looking now in the database, I check standby and it shows:
log_archive_min_succeed_dest integer 1
And, checking primary, it shows:
log_archive_min_succeed_dest integer 1
Okay, so what's next?
I tried resetting the LogArchiveMinSucceedDest to see if that would help, but it just gave me error.
DGMGRL> edit database 'tststby2' set property 'LogArchiveMinSucceedDest'=1;
Error: ORA-16788: unable to set one or more database configuration property valuesI do see that my LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2 is set to ENABLE in primary, and is set to DEFER in standby, but it doesn't seem to let me change it in standby.
What else can I check?
Adding a couple of more things that might shed light on this:

Okay, I will check that.
Meanwhile, I'm trying a standard manual switchover, which worked fine.
But, when I try to switch logfiles, it is just hanging.
When i check alert log, it shows errors:

The reason I suspect that is because, when I try to enable dest_2, I see error:

Log_file_name_convert is ignored, why?

I'm running 10.2.0.3.0 and trying to restore a database onto a box where I have no /u02 mount point. Thus, I'm attempting to use the log_file_name_convert. However, following the examples doesn't work.
I put log_file_name_convert = (/u02/,/u01/)
into my init.ora then did a
create spfile from pfile.
startup mount;
used show parameter to verify the log_file_name_convert is set. Yet the alter database open reset logs errors out because it can't find /u02. Why is the log_file_name_convert being ignored?
Screen shot below:
SQL> connect /as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> show parameter convert
NAME TYPE VALUE
db_file_name_convert string
log_file_name_convert string /u02/, /u01/

Hi,
Parameter LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT is used for log file name of standby database/clone database.
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10755/initparams113.htm
Use "ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE" command to rename the logfiles.
I did following testcase in 10.2.0.3.0 database

SOA-- Invoking OSB Service Getting Error :ORA-00084: global area must be PGA, SGA, or UGA

Hello Friends,
Really appreciate your help/inputs on the below Error Message encountered while running a Concurrent Program--using SOA:Same encountered in recently refreshed DEV instance, Can it be related to some Developement Instance Configuration related to SOA, as same working as expected in PROD.PLEASE ASSIST

Hi..
>
# symptom: ORA-00381: cannot use both new and old parameters for buffer cache size specification
# cause: Both db_block_buffers and db_cache_size parameters are defined in the init.ora (instance parameter file). The db_block_buffers parameter has been deprecated and has been maintained only for backward compatibility. The db_cache_size parameter is one of the size parameters which defines the size of the cache for buffers. These parameters cannot be combined. Setting this along with the Dynamic SGA parameters errors out.
>
For sga_target refer to [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/initparams193.htm#REFRN10256]
which quotes
>
SGA_TARGET specifies the total size of all SGA components. If SGA_TARGET is specified, then the following memory pools are automatically sized:
*Buffer cache (DB_CACHE_SIZE)
* Shared pool (SHARED_POOL_SIZE)
* Large pool (LARGE_POOL_SIZE)
* Java pool (JAVA_POOL_SIZE)
* Streams pool (STREAMS_POOL_SIZE)
If these automatically tuned memory pools are set to non-zero values, then those values are used as minimum levels by Automatic Shared Memory Management. You would set minimum values if an application component needs a minimum amount of memory to function properly.
>
So, the what ever the value are set for the parameter will act as minimum value when sga_target is set.
