Oracle 10g - Cross-Platform Transportable Database (with or without RMAN?)

Hello guys,
i am currently on a project for migrating oracle databases from one platform to another platform (both platforms are on the same endianess):
-> From Linux 64-Bit to Windows 64-Bit
-> From HP-UX 64-Bit to AIX 64-Bit
All databases are on Oracle 10g (10.2.0.4) and i have tested two different ways:
1) The "official" way with RMAN CONVERT DATABASE
http://youngcow.net/doc/oracle10g/backup.102/b14191/dbxptrn002.htm#CHDEEEAG
2) "Copy & Paste"
- Copy & Paste of the database files
- Recreate controlfile manually on target platform (with help of "backup controlfile to trace" on source platform)
Both ways are working well and the migrated test databases are running fine.
Now i am wondering why there is a "RMAN CONVERT DATABASE" command, if it possible to copy and paste the data files and perform two steps manually afterwards.
The "RMAN CONVERT DATABASE" is time consuming and you still need to copy the RMAN output files to the target platform.
Is there any special reason, why you need the "RMAN CONVERT DATABASE"? Does the "RMAN CONVERT DATABASE" change some things in the database files internally?
Thanks and Regards

If the source platform and the target platform are of different endianness, then an additional step must be done on either the source or target platform to convert the tablespace being transported to the target format. Of course .. in this case you can not use the "Cross-Platform Transportable Database" - you have to use the "Cross-Platform Tranportable Tablespace" (with RMAN CONVERT DATAFILE or TABLESPACE).
Anurag Tibrewal wrote:
If they are of the same endianness, then no conversion is necessary and tablespaces can be transported as if they were on the same platform.Yes, but oracle provides this with RMAN and the command "RMAN CONVERT DATABASE" .. as i already wrote i have already performed the two ways "RMAN CONVERT DATABASE" and "just copy & paste" and both are working fine.
So my question is if there is any special case in which you should use the RMAN way with "RMAN CONVERT DATABASE" instead of just "copy & paste" if you stay on the same endianness?
Thanks and Regards

Steps to create Cross-Platform Transportable Tablespaces

hi
what is the steps to do Cross-Platform Transportable Tablespaces.
i want to perform this in my pc, i have linux and windows in same PC, i want to migrate from linux to windows and vice versa.
so can i know complete steps and commands to perform Cross-Platform Transportable Tablespaces. to get complete knowledge i am doing this so i can implement this in my office when any migrate issues comes. so once i do this i will get confidence so that i can do the same in my office which saves my time.

Need help for importing oracle 10G dump into 9i database

hi, Someone help me to import oracle 10G dump into 9i database. I'm studying oracle . Im using oracle 10G developer suite(downloaded from oracle) and oracle 9i database. I saw some threads tat we can't import the higher version dumps into lower version database. But i'm badly need help for importing the dump...
or
someone please tell me the site to download oracle 9i Developer suite as i can't find it in oracle site...

I didnt testet it to import a dump out of a 10g instance into a 9i instance if this export has been done using a 10g environment.
But it is possible to perform an export with a 9i environment against a 10g instance.
I am just testing this with a 9.2.0.8 environment against a 10.2.0.4.0 instance and is working so far.
The system raises an EXP-00008 / ORA-37002 error after exporting the data segments (exporting post-schema procedural objects and actions).
I am not sure if it is possible to perform an import to a 9i instance with this dump but maybe worth to give it a try.
It should potentially be possible to export at least 9i compatible objects/segments with this approach.
However, I have my doubts if this stunt is supported by oracle ...

Oracle 10g for Fedora Linux 3 with Kernel 2.6.9

Can any body suggest a link, from where I can download the Oracle database 10g for Fedora Core 3 Linux with Kernel version 2.6.9-1*.
I went through the oracle site site but i was not able to find a one for Fedora 3 instead i found for Fedora 4.
Thanks.......
Suneel

You will not find one exactly as you require.
As I suggested in the duplicate link
Oracle 10g for Fedora Linux 3 with Kernel 2.6.9 you need to take a version of Oracle that seems to close to your Linux and then carefully tinker to make it work.,

Database upgrade - Oracle 10g r2 ,RAC(2 Nodes with ASM) upgrade from HP-UX to RHEL 5.9

Hi All
I am planning to upgrade our RAC database 2 nodes with ASM from HP-UX to RHEL 5.9.
Following is our setup
Current setup:
Oracle Database 10g r2 (10.2.0.5.0) RAC database.
Nodes: 2
Storage: ASM
OS: HP-UX ia64
Database Size: 1.2 TB
New Setup:
Oracle Database 10g r2(10.2.0.5.0) RAC database
Nodes: 2
Storage: ASM
OS: RHEL 5.9 x86 64
Since we are moving from a big endian format to a small endian format(HP-UX to RHEL 5.9) the same ASM cannot be used.
Kindly help me with process and other important documents to be followed.
Thanks.

Hi...
If it was a standlone database concepts like transportable tablespaces, rman would have been convenient.
Since we are using a RAC database with ASM as storage how do we use these techniques specified in NOTE:733205.1
Due to endianness issue we cannot use the same ASM instance.
Along with the new RAC node install a new ASM instance would have to be created.
Kindly help me with migration for RAC with existing ASM to new Hardware
Thanks and Regards

Migrate Oracle 9i Database to Oracle 10g Solaris Platform

Hi DBAs,
Thank you very much all of you, you helped me in RMAN Duplicate Database, There was a problem in my backupset and now it has been resolved.
I have now following task.
I want to migrate Oracle 9i Database to Oracle 10g ASM, both are on Solaris platform. Please provide me step by step solution. I have very big Database about 250G Database.

In the "Complete checklist for manual upgrades to 10gR2" is written:
PREREQUISITES
=============
+ Install Oracle 10g Release 2 in a new Oracle Home.
+ Install the latest available patchset from Metalink.
+ Install the latest available Critical Patch Update.
... so "Install the latest available Critical Patch Update" step is that for the Oracle 10g database Oracle Home or Oracle 9i database Oracle Home ? I think that is for the 10g database/ Oracle Home ...
after applying the CPU pacht there is some "Post Installation Instructions":
3.3.5 Post Installation Instructions which demande a connection to the database:
3. For each database instance running out of the ORACLE_HOME being patched, connect to the database using SQL*Plus as SYSDBA and run catcpu.sql as follows:
cd %ORACLE_HOME%\CPU\CPUJan2007
sqlplus /nolog SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
SQL> STARTUP
SQL> @catcpu.sql
SQL> QUIT
My question is ... If I want to upgrade a 9i database to 10g and I apply this CPU before the upgrade is done (to 10g Oracle Home), how could I connect to an instance which is not present to run this script ? ... is this step mandatory or is optional ?
Thanks,
P.

Problems with the installation Oracle 10g 10202 - Platform x86 - Sol 5.10

Hi,
I am trying to install Oracle 10g R10202 in plataform x86 Solaris 5.10. I did all the tasks of preinstallation, and when I execute runInstaller, the following error appears ==>

Obviously it is not a problem of space in the directory/tmp.
I have tried other options as ==>
*-Run runInstaller con el parameter ignoreSysPrereqs
*-Setting others variables of environment like, TMP =/opt/tmp
and TMPDIR =/opt/tmp.
But I don't fix the problem.
Someone has some idea of like solving this bug or problem?
Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards.

Error is on small caps but it is straight forward:
".. error: invalid compressed data to inflate ..."
Your oracle media is corrupt. Redownload it and verify the downloaded zip file.

To add to Patrick's suggestion....
What I am suggesting is not the cause of the FLOWS_030000 user existing error, but could be another issue which caused your installation to fail.
In your post, you said...
This is the command i gave to configure from SQL prompt:
@D:\Apex3.0\apexins.sql <Newly Create User> <Newly Created Tablespace> <Newly Created Tablespace> TEMP /i/
You have specified an absolute path when running the apexins.sql script. In order for the installation to succeed, you must first change your working directory to the directory where you unzipped the apex_3.0.zip file and then run the script. This is because the apexins.sql script subsequently references other sql scripts, using relative paths.
You have also not included a password in your command, was this just for purposes of the posting, or could this also be an issue, as in:
@apexins password tablespace_apex tablespace_files tablespace_temp images
Hope this helps,

Oracle 10g webcache as load balancer with Clusterware for HA

Hi All
I'm trying to put together a solution for my organisation to include a resilient load balanced setup without buying hardware load balancing kit. We are implementing an Oracle Forms based product from a software supplier on the Oracle 10g Forms & Reports Services platform v10.1.2.2.0. The intention is to balance the production load of the application across 2 identical Sun T2000 servers - each could support the full load independently if necessary. The servers are geographically separated for resilience. The supplier has recommended implementing Webcache on one of these T2000 servers as a load balancer - this works fine, but presents a single point of failure and no automatic failover.
I have read an Oracle white paper explaining that Oracle Webcache as a load balancer can be made into a HA solution by using Oracle Clusterware. What isn't clear from the paper is this;
1. Whether I need to have Webcache as a load balancer & Clusterware installed separately on a different pair of servers ?
2. Can I simply configure Webcache for load balancing on both of my Sun servers and use Clusterware to failover the load balancing function from one server to the other if one fails ?
Can anyone point me in the right direction with this please ?
Many thanks
Dean

Just a quick answer, please:
If you think about Oracle WebCache as a general application, you will find some useful Technical White Papers on http://otn.oracle.com/clusterware They will explain, how Oracle Clusterware can be used to protect any kind of application.
In general, Oracle Clusterware and Oracle WebCache must be installed on the same set of servers (cluster nodes) in this case. Regarding the question of whether or not you can re-use your 2 SUN servers: It depends.
Oracle Clusterware requires shared storage and a private interconnect. Your current infrastructure might need to be reviewed and enhanced in those regards, especially, since your servers are geographically separated as you said.
Just some ideas. Thanks.

Solaris 10,oracle 10g question- can't connect with non-dba user

Hi
I've installed the Oracle10g suite, enterprise edition ( 10.2.0.1). I've created a database called qa10g, which I can connect to as user 'oracle' once I export the ORACLE_SID and the ORACLE_HOME
export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/10g2
export ORACLE_SID=qa10g
then I type in the following at it puts me into sqlplus:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus system/system
so that works fine..now whan I try to log in as another user that isn't a member of the dba group, and I export the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID variables, I can't get in to the database using $ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus system/system, I get the following errors:
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
SVR4 Error: 2: No such file or directory
Enter user-name:
BUT, when I put the connector string at the end, I can get in:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus system/system@qa10g
Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, Oracle Label Security, OLAP and Data Mining Scoring Engin
e options
SQL>
so obviously, it is an enviromnet variable that isn't getting set properly, perhaps even ORACLE_SID=qa10g isn't working properly for the non-dba user ( in this case, the user is called ctronsys)
for the work I need to do on this databse, I need to have the user I select to be able to log into the database with sqlplus commands like the ones listed above, without the connector string added at the end..the SID gets exported first..
any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm a newbie to Oracle!
thanks!
Rob

Could Oracle 10g (in a server) work with existing Oracle 9i client

Hello!
I am new in Oracle, and I was wondering if it’s possible to use Oracle 10g in a server with clients using Oracle 9i. Would that work? Are they compatible?.
Thanks!

my 9.2 client can not connect to 10g server,
It says that "this application requires that you have been granted to select any dictionary privelege".
my 10 g client connecting normally, but i have many terminal computers with 9 client.
Tell me how to connect to 10g server from 9 client please.

Performance problems with Oracle 9.2.0.2 Database with optimizer_mode=RULE

If I make an explain plan for a query of the following form:
SELECT a.*
FROM a, b
WHERE a.pk = b.fk
AND b.pk IN (1, 2);
the explain plan states, that a FULL-TABLE-SCAN on table b is performed and a HASH-JOIN is done to execute the query.
On 8.0.6 Database the Indexes on the tables are used and a NESTED-LOOP join is performed.
Why is the 9.2.0.2 Database using HASH-JOINS when the Database is explicitly set to optimizer_mode=RULE, as I think HASH-JOINS are only possible with CBO?
How can I force the 9.2.0.2 database to perform exactly like the 8.0.6 database with RBO?

some options:
set the hash_join_enabled parameter to false in the init.ora file.
set the compatible parameter to 8.0 in the init.ora file.
documentation:
HASH_JOIN_ENABLED specifies whether the optimizer should consider using a
hash join as a join method. When set to FALSE, hash join is turned off; that is, it is
not available as a join method that the optimizer can consider choosing. When set to
TRUE, the optimizer will compare the cost of a hash join to other types of joins, and
choose it if it gives the best cost.
COMPATIBLE allows you to use a new release, while at the same time guaranteeing
backward compatibility with an earlier release. This is in case it becomes necessary
to revert to the earlier release. This parameter specifies the release with which the
Oracle server must maintain compatibility. Some features of the current release may
be restricted.

Installing oracle application express from the database with oracle 11g

Hi,
I installed oracle 11g release 1 and trying to install oracle APEX from the database with Embedded PL/SQL gateway. The installation guide require grant connect privilege to any host for the APEX_030200 database user, but this schema does not exist in the database...
How to continue the installation of APEX ?

But I need to enable network services in my database (oracle 11g).

Oracle 10g Help?Create database error

I am unable to run a script createDB having command create database kmaa.I open up SQL*Plus, connect and login without any trouble as well. When I try to create a database I get the following:
SQL> CREATE DATABASE kmaa;
CREATE DATABASE kmaa
Error at line 1:
ORA-01501: CREATE DATABASE failed
ORA-01100:database already mounted
Any idea?

Hi Pete,
Oracle Express Edition creates a database automatically when you install it and the product is limited to one database instance per machine. Perhaps you are confusing users/schemas with what you may term a database. An Oracle database instance can be broken down into logical units called users or schemas. If you wish to create a database of books, you should create a user called books and then log on as this user and create your database objects. To make things simpler, Oracle XE comes with a browser interface based on Application Express. You can use this to create schemas, database objects and applications (forms reports etc) to access and manage those objects. Further to this you should RTFM.
Regards
Andre
