Oracle 10G Installation and Migration from 6i to 10G and

I never had the opportunity to Install or Migrate oracle any version.
We are in the process of Installing Oracle 10G and moving Oracle Forms and Reports from 6i to 10G. I am asked by my superiors to conduct the interviews and decide which candidate will be best. These are temporary positions but are very important as a wrong candidate will affect the entire project. Need the right candidate.
I would like some hints or suggestion as to what skills should I test or what questions to ask.
Any sites or any questions will help me.
Thanks to All

  • ACS4 installation and migration from ACS3

    Question: Has anyone installed ASC4 and migrate from ACS3? Any problems, concerns?
    The installation of ASC4 would happen on the same server as the current ASC3 correct?
    Since you will need to restart the JBOSS etc for configuration changes. This means that ASCS3 could suffer some downtime?

  • Upgrade Call Manager from 8.5(1) to 10.5(1) and migrate from MCS to UCS...

    We are upgrading UCM from 8.5(1) to 10.5(1) and migrating from MCS to UCS. We used UCM 8.5 OVA (7500 user) and migrated to UCS.
    Once migrated to UCS we upgraded UCM to 10.5(1). We wanted to use OVA to accommodate 10,000 users, hence took backup of 10.5(1) cluster and installed new servers with new 10.5(1) OVA (10,000 users).
    While doing DRS restore, system we were not able to perform a restore. It seems UCM is not recognizing the XML file. It is strange as we took the back from UCM 10.5(1) and trying to restore same version, only difference is upgrade was done with 7500 user OVA and we are now trying to install 10,000 user OVA.
    Has anyone run into similar issue? any help will be great.
    Thank You.

    This thread is 5 months old but doesn't seem resolved...
    I ran into this same scenario last week. Was using the same SFTP server for backups and restores during migration from 7.1(5) to 10.5 and during final rebuild/restore of the "to-be" production 10.5 Publisher, the DRS server was unresponsive and blamed the Master Agent or SFTP server. I had restarted Master and Local agent repeatedly, and regenerated ipsec certs to no avail.
    TAC suggested I try a different SFTP server (which I already had, with the same files), and try deleting the .xml files that were included with the backup (drfComponent.xml and processhost.xml). I installed TitanFTP, per TAC's recommendation, deleted the processhost.xml file, regenerated the ipsec certificate one last time, restarted DRF Master, and then DRF Agent, and was able to start a DRS Restore.
    Try the above process if you're still having issues.

    I have an iPhone 4s, but wifi the option is greyed out. The wifi stopped working on it months ago. Now I wanted to erase all content and setting from my old 4s and it will not connect to the internet, because the cellular data is no longer connected, since I bought a new iPhone 5c. I can't erase my phone by pluggin it into my Macbook Pro, since I can't disable the "Find my iPhone" App without internet. How do I erase all the data and setting on my 4s without connecting to the internet? It is running ios 7

    See this https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20131119125513AAtRloc
    I just did it. To enter DFU mode, I had to use "method 3" on this post

    Too bad my 4S is 2 years old. Wifi is dead. I had to upgrade to 5S, but 5S is soooooo much faster than 4S so it's kind of good outcome. Without the 4S breaking down, a stingy person like me would have never upgraded the phone.

  • I was using my ipad it was under 10% but no under 4% it turned off then i pluged the charger in and flashed on then showed apple sign after i turned it on. now its going back and forth from the apple sign and battery symbol ive changed chargers its not on

    hey please help!
    i was using my ipad it was under 10% but no under 4% it turned off then i pluged the charger in and flashed on then showed apple sign after i turned it on. now its going back and forth from the apple sign and battery symbol ive changed chargers its made no differnce its been like 3 hours ive tried to do that reset thing holding lock button and home button for 10 seconds at the same time. WHAT DO I DO?

    Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Migrating Oracle forms and reports from 6i to 10g Application server on Uni

    HI Guys,
    We are migrating from Oracle forms and reports 6i to 10g.
    We will be having application server on Unix box.
    I understand following will be the changes i will have to do in this respect -
    1. Fonts are to be revisited only Java fonts are supported.
    2. Obsolete items, function calls, triggers are to be removed.
    My question is since this application can be cross platform application,
    Can anyone provide me with changes that I will have to do with configuration files like -
    1. Formsweb.cfg,
    2. forms.conf
    3. default.env
    4. registry.dat
    Keeping in mind that the application server will be on unix box.
    Thanks,
    Av.

    Java fonts are only supported for the Forms version.
    You can use your own fonts for Reports however, there is some legwork to do this. I know because I just went through it.
    If you will only being using the PDF output (which for me replaced the Preview mode that existed in 6i), then you have to install the TTF for the missing font, an AFM (use the ttf2pt1 utility to generate the AFM file, but make sure you remove the AFM extension when moving it to Unix). You'll want to use the PDF Subset in the uifont.ali (which exists under the ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin directory and add the line underneath the PDF Subset "Font Family Name"="TTF Font Name" The font family name is found when you open the AFM file in textpad or wordpad for the font you generated. This is what you enter. The TTF Font Name is the name the TTF font. You'll have to restart Reports Server after this.
    If printing to the printer directly is an option you must have, I will tell you it does not work in Linux right now. You can print to the printer but if the font doesn't exist on the internal memory of the printer, it won't work. There are 3rd party utilities like ORARRP and PDFPrint that can take care of this but, each has its own limitations. The one thing I found with ORARRP is if you generate a Report with an RRPA file extension and open it on Windows, it works great, the printer dialog comes up asking you what printer you want to print too. However, if you call this in Linux/Unix with the filename, it brings it up in the web browser but doesn't prompt you for your printer to print too automatically. So, for me, it's a show stopper. My only other option is to install the fonts on the printer that are missing.
    As for the files you want to change, you'll obviously have to make changes to the formsweb.cfg, default.env, forms.conf. I have to modify the reports.sh for some PL/SQL attached libraries to make sure it picks them up. I did have to modify Registry.dat.
    There is alot of work but mainly forms wasn't too bad, unless you had fonts that weren't supported. Usually there is another font that you can use to replace the old one but you have to know which fonts exists on the server and try all the keys on the keyboard to find the corresponding keystroke.
    Hope this helps.

  • Problem in migrating from 6i to 10g and I need help

    I'm trying to change my program from 6i to 10g
    I migrated libraries and
    every thing is ok but when I try to migrate forms I had this error
    ERROR opening D:\10gnkinkos\SHIFTS.fmb :oracle.forms.jdapi.JdapiException: A subclassed module could not be found during loading
    Check subclass and library dependencies

    With "the browser opening a white page" do you mean that the Forms Java applet won't start at all or is it starting with a Forms with a white canvas without any items on it?
    If it is the first (Java not starting) there must be something wrong with your Forms setup. First try to run with the default setup without specifying a form. It should display test.fmx that it is included with the Forms setup. This Forms just tells you the setup succeeded and displays a single OK button

  • URGENT - Migrating from 9i to 10g designer

    Hi All,
    I have installed new repository for Designer 10g (10.1.2.0.2) and
    I have started Migration from Designer 9i (9.0.2.80.10).
    I have error message from ckrau61 with cause:
    "No Designer Repository has been detected.
    Please check connection details and try again".
    I have checked TNSNAMES.ORA and haven't found any error. Other
    software works with old repository (9i) and i have checked the TNSNAMES.ORA on the server and not on the client ... Oracle is trying to build a db link and it is tested ok.
    The Migration from 9i is not supported in 10g?
    Help-me!!!!
    Any tips would be helpful. Thanks.

    You do not have to install a new Repository and "migrate" your data to upgrade from Designer 9i to Designer 10g. You just install the 10g Designer client, connect to your existing 9i Repository and "upgrade" it to 10g.
    Please refer to the "Upgrading a Release 6i, 9i, or 10g Repository" section in the Repository Installation Guide for complete details.

  • Discoverer Viewer/Plus 10g after a migration from Discoverer 4i

    Hi, I upgrated Discoverer4i to Discoverer 10g with Ebusiness Suite 11i ( 11.5.9) without installin AS 10g
    I followed the note: http://oracle-magic.blogspot.com/2006/11/upgrading-discoverer-4i-to-10g-on-apps.html
    If I use Discoverer Administrator and Desktop it works perfectly (I connect as an Oracle Application User)
    Now, I want to see my reports with Discoverer Viewer/Plus but I don't understand how to do it (always connecting with an Oracle Application user).
    My previous URL (with Discoverer4i) was: http://gnvdev.ote.gr:8025/discoverer4i/viewer
    Now, after the Discoverer 10g installation I can connect to the "Welcome to Oracle Business Intelligence 10g (10.1.2)" page with the following URL:http://gnvdev.ote.gr:7779/
    I didn't understand how Ebusiness Suite 11i ( 11.5.9) can communicate with Discoverer 10g in order to see reports from the web
    Can anyone help to understand where and how I should modify anything in order to see my reports with Discoverer Viewer or Plus
    Thank you
    Alex

    If you have followed all the steps in "Note: 313418.1 - Using Discoverer 10.1.2 with Oracle E-Business Suite 11i" then you should be able to access Discoverer Plus/Viewer through the following links:
    Discoverer Plus:
    http://gnvdev.ote.gr:7779//discoverer/plus
    Discoverer Viewer:
    http://gnvdev.ote.gr:7779//discoverer/viewer
    The above links will prompt for some input, all what you need to provide is:
    - Applications Username
    - Applications Password
    - Database (SID)

  • What is the right tools to migrate from developer suite 10g to 11g?

    Hi all..
    Im kinda new here and hope pro can help me in the right direction. I've been developing forms and reports in 10g which is using the developer suite. My company would like to migrate to 11g. However, i see that there are no 11g developer suite. it must have rename it something else or provided to developer in a different name or so.
    Could someone clarify this and give me a link to what i need to develop forms and reports in 11g. Im sure im going to need the weblogic as well.
    I did find a post where user states that there is no more developer suite in 11g but i find his answer a bit unclear. So i was hoping someone can give a link to what i really need in order to continue with 11g.
    Thanks

    In brief a migration from 10g to 11g is just a recompile, nothing more. There were some built-ins removed in 11g which were deprecated in 10g (like run_product for example) so if you have some dead code containing this built-ins you will get compile errors. But as those built-ins didn't do anything in 10g you should be able to remove them without a second thought.
    As for developer suite: there is no developer suite anymore like there was in 10g; There is only one complete bundle containing the development as well as the deployment components, and you can choose at installation time which components you want to install. You can install the IDEs and omit some of the components you won't need in 11gR1 or install the development version in 11gR2.
    You can find the install bundles here.
    Before you start installing it is a good idea to review the certified system configurations.
    cheers

  • Migrating from 9i to 10g designer

    Is there documentation on migrating Designer/Repository from 9i to 10g.
    We have a 9i database and 9i designer. What are the specific steps to be done.
    I know oracle normally has a migration path for its products.
    any tips would be helpful.

    Documentation is in the release notes. Actually, it is quite simple.
    First backup your Repository with the Repository Administration Utility (RAU).
    Install Designer 10g - this can be done in the same ORACLE_HOME as 9i or in a new ORACLE_HOME if you wish. Do this for all Designer users that share your Repository - once you upgrade the repository, old versions of Designer won't be able to use it.
    Then start RAU again. You will notice that the Upgrade button, which is normally grayed out, has become active, and some of the other buttons are grayed out. Use the Check System Requirements utility to make sure that your Repository Owner has all of the needed permissions and that other configurations are correct. It is particularly important that the registry settings that point Designer at "imp" and "exp" point to versions that are compatible with your database version. By the way, the latest version of the Repository requires at least Oracle 9iR2.
    Finally, press the Upgrade button and start the upgrade. This will take a while but went pretty smoothly for me.
