Oracle 10.2 in VMWARE?

I'm going for vacation and really need to work :-( I know ....
I have VMWARE Player installed on my laptop, is there any prepackaged Oracle 10.2 on Linux pre-packaged there? Nothing illegal, I really want legitimate evaluation copy.
can you send me link, please
thank you
jiri

Sometimes ago there was a prebuilt vmware-redhat-rac-installation on otn.
But now you must install it manually. But it's good training! And there's nothing illegal.
1. Download the free VMWare Server (http://www.vmware.com/download/server/)
2. Install Linux in VM
3. Install Oracle

Run Oracle VM Manager in VMware VM??

Yes, I know it's sounds a little clugy but that is what my customer is asking. They do not want to provision another physical server simply to be the VM Manager.
Is it supported to install the Oracle VM Manager inside of a VMware virtual machine?

Dude wrote:
+"The Unbreakable Enterprise kernel is not supported on any version of ESX/ESXi host. "+ The requirements for the latest version of Oracle OVM are Oracle Linux 5 Update 5 64-bit or later. As of 5.6, the UEK kernel is default.Oracle VM Manager doesn't require the UEK. You can boot back into the Red Hat compatible kernel and still run Oracle VM Manager, under VMware ESXi.

How to connect Oracle Linux 6 on vmware without GUI

Hi Guys,
I've setup Oracle Linux 6 as Vmware Guest (on External Driver) and Windows 7 as Host. And I'm running Oracle EBS R12 on Linux.
When I'm login to VMWare the Linux starts up with GUI which is just a waste of resources.
Please let me know how can I run the Linux 6 in text mode on VMWare.
Regards
Vijay

In addition to Dude's comments ... it sounds like you are connecting to your vm machine via the vmware console. Personally, I treat that console just like I treat the console on my physical servers in my data center. That is, I don't run down to the data center whenever I need to log on to a linux server. That's what remote console programs such as putty are for. I have a suite of 10 linux vm's on my Win7 desktop, and one of my 4 "Prime Directives" is that I access them using exactly the same Windows desktop tools I use to access my physical servers.

Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud

Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud
VMware are saying you need licence for using oracle in cloud
but they are showing pricing for Enterprise edition
and i am clueless

I've moved your question over to the Cloud Computing > Oracle Database Cloud Service space it I think it's likely the best place for it. Certainly the community feedback and suggestions forum (not for product related questions) was NOT the correct place, as that forum is NOT for product related questions, as it states in it's forum space title.

Does Oracle Support Running Oracle 10 Database on VMware ?

hi experts,
I have 10g Enterprise on a Windows 64-bit Enterprise platform.
I know this is a recurring question - whether or not Oracle really supports customers that run Oracle databases in a VMWare environment.
I found a document on My Oracle Support/metalink that is dated 2007. It says VMWare is not supported.
But I think the situation may have changed since 2007.
So can anyone point me to a document that shows whether Oracle does/does not support running Oracle databases on VMware - not Oracle's VMware product but VMWare, inc. ?
Thanks for any current information. John

1) Oracle has their own virtualization solution;
2) VMWare is a brand, not a product. Your question is best asked in context of a product;
3) Oracle will provide you with support as long as you can reproduce the problem in a non-VM environment.
That last means - it is up to you to prove that the problem is not related to VMWare environment.I have never seen any scenario where Oracle demands you to prove that the problem is not related to VMware.
If its their suggested solution does not work, and they think i should, they want you to migrate it to a physical machine and test there, however this has never happend, at least not for us. We have around 100 databases in VMware, and the common talk (even from Oracle people that visits us) is that the document is only there IF THERE BY SOME CHANCE IN THE WORLD WOULD COME TO A PROBLEM FOR A COMPANY, WHERE VMWARE IS THE PROBLEM, AND ORACLE CANT HELP, they have to have a get-out clause in terms of support against VMware.

Oracle licensing in a Vmware Cluster

My question is related with Oracle licensing in a Vmware Cluster.
We have two VMware cluster in our datacenter: the first one (8 hosts – 16 sockets) is for not Oracle VM and the second (2 host – 3 sockets) only for Oracle VM. Both are connected to the same IBM V7000 with zoning and LUN masking that guarantees isolation.
In the Oracle cluster, DRS and HA are deactivated and VMotion logs are monitored for license compliance.
In this isolated environment, Oracle pretend to license every socket to any host connected to the V7000, regardless of the cluster that are connected the host.
Do you know how similar implementations with Oracle have been resolved (in terms of licensing)?
Thanks in advance!

Definitely a useful article. Also useful is this one:
http://houseofbrick.com/managing-oracle-licensing-in-a-shared-storage-environment/
And the various Oracle licensing-related articles written by Michael Webster:
http://longwhiteclouds.com/tag/oracle/
http://longwhiteclouds.com/tag/licensing/
To me personally it boils down to the very simple contractual key element:
By contract, you have to license every physical processor of every physical server where Oracle was/is running (whether that was as a VM or physical is irrelevant).
Conversely this means that by contract, you don't have to pay a penny for any physical server that never ever had Oracle software running on itself, period.
It's amazing how Oracle reps can keep ****ing with their customers like this.

Question regarding Oracle and Linux on VMware

Hello,
I carefuly read the paper on Oracle and Linux on Your Own VMware and I'm missing a point.
The paper explains how to start a cluster on a single host in a single Linux VM on VMware.
So, there are 2 instances of Oracle 10g DB on the same Linux VM inside VMware. What does allow that?
Is it possible to run 2 instances on any (single) Linux box, or is VMware required? If VMware is not required, why this complication in that paper? If VMware is required, what does it bring that make running 2 cluster instances on the same host possible?
Many thanks for your help.

I have an oracle database (10.2) and I have a query that needs to compare data on the Oracle database to data on a MS SQL server DB. I'm using a DB Link between the two databases.
How would I compare the date fields?
I have a table that has a date as one of the fields and I need to restrict the records where the date is equal to the date on SQL, however the formats are different:
My query is as follows:
SELECT mkt_css_name,
pmv_rqst_corp_id,
pmv_rqst_source,
'G',
pmv_css_acct_no,
eq.start_date
FROM power_move@cmdt,

AND eq.requestor_type = 'P'
AND eq.status IN ('A','P','G','S')
AND eq.marketer_id = mkt_seq_no
AND pmv_service_type IN ('G','D')
And Pmv_Gas_Mktr_No = Eq.Marketer_Id
AND pmv_received_timestamp= eq.enroll_date ;
The problem is that the date is stored in Oracle in the following format: DD-MON-YYYY and in SQL as 'YYYY-DD-MM HH:MI:SSSSSS'
for example: Data in Oracle would be 27-JAN-2012 and in SQL as 2012-01-27 00:00:00.000
I get an error when I compile.
How do you reconcile the formats when the syntax is different between databases?
Thanks, SeanDATE datatypes do NOT have any "format"
DATE datatype is stored in internal binary notation.
use TO_CHAR to display, present & compare the DATE datatypes

How to install Oracle Enterprised Linux on VMware PLayer 4

Hi Everyone,
My name is John and I've a small issue which I would like to share with you and hopefully, you are able to assist.
My laptop is installed with a Window 7 Home Edition operating system and I've installed VMware-player-4.0.2. After reboot, I've also downloaded the file - V29609-01 which is the ISO file of Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.2.
After that, I've tried to create a Virtual Machine - Oracle Enterprise Linux using the VMware Player by specifying the path and file name of the V29609-01.iso file on my local c:\ drive. I've tried it several times, but every time it just returns the message - 'pxe-e53 no boot filename received' and it just hangs there without proceeding further. Please let me know what I've done wrong and the correct steps and procedures to solve this problem as this is my first time installing a Linux operating system. Thank you for your assistance.
Regards,
John

Hi,
Can you clarify and explain what is your exact meaning of 'Are you sure you've added the ISO to the VM to boot from?'? Because the following is what I did:
1.) Click the Create A New Virtual Machine.
2.) Select the 'Install disc image file (iso):' option and enter the full path of the V29609-01.iso (Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.2) file that I've downloaded from https://edelivery.oracle.com/. But underneath it, that is a message saying - 'Could not detect which operating systems is in this dsic image. You will need to specify which operating system will be installed.'
3.) Click 'Next'.
4.) I chose "Linux' under the Guest operating system and chose 'Oracle Enterprise Linux' under the Version drop down.
5.) Click 'Next'.
6.) I left the Virtual machine name as 'Oracle Enterprise Linux' and click 'Next'.
7.) I set the Maximum disk size to 300 GB and have the 'Split virtual disk into multiple files' option selected and click 'Next'.
8.) I have the 'Power on this virtual machine after creation' checked and click 'Finish'.
9.) A black screen displayed inside the VMware Player saying:
'CLIENT MAC ADDR: 00 0C 289 ......
PXE-E53: No Boot filename received
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel PXE ROM.
Operating System not found
10.) And the process just hangs there.

John

Oracle-10g RAC on VMware installed on Windows-7(Host)

Hi,
My host OS is Windows-7. Docs. posted on this forum for RAC on VMware says: your Host OS should be Centos OS and in which you will install VMware and Client tools also. In this way u can clone another RAC2 machine.
But I have Oracle VM Virtual Box installed on Windows-7. Another is VMware Player installed on Windows-7.
I want to install Oracle-10g RAC on my Laptop. Please any suggestions or Docs. related to this.

Hi,
while this is a documentation of 11gR2 it gives enough information on how to setup a RAC in a VBox environment:

Install Oracle 11G, RAC with VMWare, APPS R12, and OBIEE on one server?

Dear Experts,
I'm looking to upgrade my skills, and want to learn more of:
Oracle 11G, RAC, VMWare, APPS R12, and OBIEE
My server has two quad cores (8 CPU altogether) and 16 gigs of RAM.
Years ago, I took a shots at installing RAC on multiple servers and firewire.
One thing I remember was that after I installed RAC, I was not able to use the database unless I enabled all the RAC processes on the server. So, I was not able to just boot the database and use it in the traditional single server manner.
Which I will also want to do.
1) Does this symptom/aspect/characteristic of RAC install still exist?
2) Is it realistic to install all this software on one server?
If so, what is the order of operations for the install?
3) If I have to prioritize, I'd like to install
Oracle 11G, OBIEE, and APPS R12,
Would installing R12 and OBIEE on the same server present any conflicts or issues?
If not, what is the order of operations for the install?
11G, R12, then OBIEE?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
1) Does this symptom/aspect/characteristic of RAC install still exist?No.
2) Is it realistic to install all this software on one server?
If so, what is the order of operations for the install?For learning/traning/demonstration purpose you can Install all these software on same machine.
3) If I have to prioritize, I'd like to install
Oracle 11G, OBIEE, and APPS R12,
Would installing R12 and OBIEE on the same server present any conflicts or issues?
If not, what is the order of operations for the install?
11G, R12, then OBIEE?There will not be any conflicts. I would suggest you to select vmware or virtual box in order to configure all these sw's.
I have done such a configuration on my laptop with i7 Quad processor, 16GB RAM and 640 GB HDD.
I have Installed 2 node RAC, 2 Node ERP and all are running smoothly without any issues.
