Oracle 10g listener processes on linux

Hi,
We have databases (10.1.0.3) running on linux x86 (RH AS3) and Tru64 unix.
I have noticed on linux that there are a number of processes for each listener whilst on Tru64 the listener has only one process.
Can anyone explain why linux has these extra processes?
Thanks
Mark

Hi Mark,
I've the similar issue on linux and solaris.It's a bug in 10g .There is a patch available for it.Apply Patch 4518443 for the problem .Or else you can do the work around like adding this text to your listener.ora file will fix the problem. SUBSCRIBE_FOR_NODE_DOWN_EVENT_<listener_name>=OFF

Gayatri

  • Oracle 10g listener standard

    Hi all,
    I am trying to define Oracle 10g listener standard in my organization.
    We have 60 Oracle 9i databases in an AIX node. We are planning to upgrade these database to 10g. During upgrade we want to configure the listeners according to our standard.
    Now we are not using dynamic registration for Oracle 9i databases. So there are 60 seperate listeners that always try to establish connections to the database even if the database is not up. This leads to server performance problems when the applications overload the server with connection attempts when there are hundreds of processes waiting to connect.
    After upgrade, we want to make all databases register with a listener for performance problems. But one listener per node can be too risky, maybe we can register a database with more than one listener.
    Also, there are some reasons for shutting the listener down:
    1. Cold backup
    2. Apply patches
    If we use only one listener per node, for cold backup we would shut down the listener and then no clients would connect to the databases.
    After these explanation, I am wondering if we can mix both reducing the number of the listeners for each node and using load balance for all databases.
    Do you hane any ideas, suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Fatma

    With Oracle 10g and RMAN there is no longer any reason to be doing cold backups.
    I'd run one listener per node. If this is too risky than a single database instance is also too risky and you should be investigating other high-availabilty solutions. RAC isn't always the answer.
    Connection manager might also be useful in your environment.
    Cheers,

  • Oracle 10g Listener XP pro need to be restarted ...

    Hello all.
    Here is my problem. I have oracle 10g installed on a computer with Windows XP pro Sp1a. Every thing work fine despite 1 point. When the computer is restarted, a small software starts the different Oracle Services (Oracle Database Service and listener) and wait for the 2 services to be in the state "started". After startup, the two services are in the state "started" but, sometimes, I can not get connected to Oracle. In the listener log, I have a message "TNS-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor".
    To solve the problem, I have to restart either the listener service or the oracle service or both of them.
    My problem is that this computer must be an "auto starting system".
    What can I do to solve this problem ???? Is there a specific order to start the process ?, Should I put dependency between them ???
    Thank for your help.
    D. GARRIVIER

    If you use, as I think, dynamic service registration (no SID_LIST in Listener.ora for your DB), then it would be better to start the listener before the Database. If not, the registration could take a few seconds (or minutes). Anyway, if this is the problem, you should be able to connect after a few seconds (or minutes).

  • Installation of OracleAS 10g on Red Hat Linux ES 3.0

    Installation of Oracle AS 10g on RedHat ES 3.0
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
    Copy from OTN Note
    Start
    Oracle 10g is certified to run the base release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) without updates. If you have update CDs, you can use the boot CD from the update instead of the boot CD from the base release to automatically apply all updates during the installation. All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.
    1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
    o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
    2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
    o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
    o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
    3.     Language Selection
    o     Accept the default.
    4.     Keyboard Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    5.     Welcome Screen
    o     Click on Next.
    6.     Mouse Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    7.     Installation Type
    o     Select Custom.
    8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
    o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
    (WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
    This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
    The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
    - 100MB /boot partition
    -1,500MB swap partition—Set this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
    -7,150MB root partition— This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
    9.     Boot Loader Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    10.     Network Configuration
    o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
    o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
    o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.
    o     In the Miscellaneous Settings box, enter the remaining network settings.
    11.     Firewall Configuration
    o     For the purposes of this walk-through, no firewall is configured. Select No firewall.
    12.     Additional Language Support
    o     Accept the default.
    13.     Time Zone Selection
    o     Choose the time settings that are appropriate for your area. Setting the system clock to UTC is usually a good practice for servers. To do so, click on System clock uses UTC.
    14.     Set Root Password
    o     Enter a password for root, and enter it again to confirm.
    15.     Package Group Selection
    o     Select only the package sets shown here. Leave all others unselected.

    17.     Installing Packages
    o     Software will be copied to the hard disk and installed. Change disks as prompted, and click on Next when the installation is complete.
    18.     Graphical Interface (X) Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults unless the installer does not recognize your video card. If your video card is not recognized, you will not be able to continue.
    19.     Monitor Configuration
    o     Accept the default if the installer correctly identifies your monitor. Otherwise, select a compatible monitor from the list.
    20.     Customize Graphical Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults.
    21.     Congratulations
    o     Remove the installation media from the system, and click on Next.

    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

  • Installing oracle 10g xe edition on linux

    Hi,
    I am trying to install oracle 10g xe edition on redhat linux. By default the oracle database rpm package uses /usr/lib partition for installation files. Is it possible to install the oracle database files in /export partition instead of default location /usr/lib?
    Thanks

    There are a few differrent 'RedHat Linuxes' ... could you be a bit more specific.
    But ... the default answer is 'no'. Several of us have used various workarounds, including creating a special link from /usr/lib/oracle to /export/oracle and the like.
    I installed in /usr/lib and after successful installation I created a special link, copied everything to the new target, and have had no problems at all.
    Others have used other techniques with success. INcluding the one by cd - tweak the install script.

  • Is it possible to install Oracle 10g database on a linux Os ?

    Hello all,
    I recently installed Fedora 14, and oracle 10g free edition, on my modest laptop.
    Problem is , I can't upload any scripts, because as i recently learnt from my school teacher, Oracle only works smoothly with Internet explorer browser (i.e.).
    I tried using programs like winetricks to download a linux version of i.e. but in this case Oracle doesn't even open its homepage.
    -In a nutshell, does anyone know a possible way to work with oracle 10g , (or any alternative), that's fully functional on linux (fedora 14) ? Download, Install steps,etc.
    All i need to do is upload simple SQL scripts, and practice my " select from...." commands.
    -Is oracle linux a option ? and what is it?
    Thank you already for any replies, I'm really getting tired of googling threw different forums.

    Ed,
    -i knew my teacher was being stubborn;
    -I meant that the winetricks version of i.e., didn't open the homepage of oracle 10g (=log in screen).
    -what i was trying to do was, after having installed oracle 10g , "go to data base homepage" (openend by firefox) , once logged in with my username, upload a script , and practice typing the different (select from ...group by..etc) sql commands.
    Here is one of several concepts you need to fix in your mind. Databases don't have home pages. Client applications do. Databases store and manage data. Humans at the keyboard see the client application, not the database. Oracle provides some client apps ( iSQLPlus, Oracle Enterprise Manager (Grid Control), dbcontrol, APEX) and even installs some with the database by default, but they are distinctly separate from the database, and so must be identified when talking about user interface issues. Unfortunately, telling us you tried to open "the home page of oracle" tells us nothing at all. If you had said "Tried to log in with iSQLPlus" or "I tried to connect with Apex", it would have conveyed MUCH more information. We would have then had some frame of reference as to what you were seeing.
    To the "upload from where" question : I simply copied the scripts ( .sql , file) from the pc's from school, on usb, then copied them on my own system. When using the "upload scripts" option from oracle, Again, you must distinguish between "oracle" (the database) and whatever client tool you use to connect to it. "Oracle" (the database) doesn't have an "upload scripts" option. Some un-named application does.
    the script is uploaded, but when i try to "run" it , nothing , blank page. no tables, nada. And given what I've said above, you can guess what this statement means. - grin -
    My first guess was, well the teacher said " i.e. only " , so i tried installing i.e. , using winetricks, but i had a feeling i was going off-track, and that surely there must have been a much easier way.
    Even Billy was more charitable toward your teacher than I feel. And when he is so wrong about something as simple as this, makes me wonder what else he is wrong about. And the quality of the teachers calls into question the quality of the school in general.
    In fact, had I been told that by an instructor, I would make it a personal mission to prove him wrong. Not in front of the class (as much short term satisfaction as that may provide) but just by taking my laptop to his office and saying "let me show you something". One of my personal hot buttons is for someone who should know better to pronounce something as "won't work" when I've been doing it for so long and so easily as to just take it for granted.

    Linux (fedora 14) is up and running,
    oracle 10g , linux version, was installed using detailed guide.
    And yes, i will look into oracle linux, and oracle 11g ,
    but i was hoping to use the same version as my school, to avoid any surprises when passing my exams.Edited by: EdStevens on Jun 13, 2011 3:02 PM

    echo ' '" sqlplus is not working" is not an actionable error message. Unfortunately, you didn't show us what happens when you try to execute sqlplus.
    Essentially, what you've done is the equivalent of 'here's a picture of my garage. Why won't my car start?'

  • How to connect Oracle 10g from OBIEE on Linux?

    - OBIEE 10.1.3.4.0 is running on Cent 5 Linux M1 (*64* bit). My Oracle database is running another similar machine M2.
    - I installed oracle 64 bit client on M1 but could not connect to run the report, connection issue. Even nqcmd didn't helped.
    - I guess it was because OBIEE is *32* bit application and hence need 32 bit client.
    - I tried installing Oracle 32 bit Linux client on M1 but installation fails with some dependency (Not sure if we can install 32 bit client on 64 bit machine)
    Q1 - Any suggestion at this point?
    Q2 - Is there any way we could connect OBIEE to Oracle via ODBC drivers. I could not found any odbc driver/so file when I wan installed 64 bit client. Any suggestion for this?
    Thanks in Advance!

    The computer running XE server does not need a client installed.
    If you are trying to connect from another computer, install the XE client and create file C:\XEClient\NETWORK\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA with the following contents (replace ip_address as appropriate):
    XE =
        (DESCRIPTION =
           (ADDRESS_LIST =
              (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ip_address)(PORT = 1521))
           (CONNECT_DATA =
              (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
    {code}Test with
    {code:java}
    sqlplus SYSTEM/password@XE
    {code}
