Oracle 11G Direct SQL Load with Data Guard

Does SQL Loader in direct mode always bypass the writing of redo logs ?
If the database has force logging on, will SQL Loader in direct mode bypass the writing of redo logs ?
Is there a way to run SQL Loader in direct mode that will create redo logs that can be applied by Data Guard to the backup database ?

Oracle 11g R2, Problem Loading Spatial Data

We have a geodatabase which has been implemented by oracle spatial. it has been working quite fine since 2 years ago. Recently the data center serving our geodatabase has been upgraded on both software and hardware specifications. The handler application now has difficulty retrieving spatial data. The problem is somehow strange; only some spatial objects are loaded and then application encounters exceptions.
Previous working database engine was an Oracle 11g R1 and the new one is Oracle 11g R2. The application is a java application mostly written by swing. Here is the stack trace:
java.sql.SQLRecoverableException: No more data to read from socket

I read in some forums that the problem could be caused by jdbc version incompatibility, so I just copied jdbc archives from the installed oracle 11g R2 jdbc folder but the problem persists. Last thing I should mention is that only spatial data is problemistic and non-spatial data is easily loaded.
Please Help, Thanks.

Hi storm,
During the installation of oracle as you said if you have given the global password, basically this specific password will reflect to users such as
-sys
-system
-dbsnmp
-sysman
As you are new to oracle the basics that you should know is that "SYS" user is the highly privileged user in Oracle and should be logged in as "sys as sysdba" with his respective password (i.e. the global password that you have entered during database installation) to obtain his privilege. Remember to manipulate your database with caution when you are logged in as the sys user. You can log into the database using the sys user in the following way:
c\> sqlplus sys as sysdba
password: ****** --It will ask you for the password and you will have to give the global password that was given during installation
Hope this helps!!!

SQL Loader with date formatting

Hi,
I'm trying to get sql loader to insert a date into a column. After much browsing, reading trial and error I still get an array of errors.
I'm using oracle XE
my control file looks like this
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'posmeters/meters.csv'

TWENTY_PND,
TEN_PND,
FIVE_PND,
TWO_PND,
ONE_PND,
FIFTY_P,
TWENTY_P,
TEN_P,

It is the DATETIME field which gives me grief. I have a test data file that looks like this
0,1010,29/09/2011 10:23:24,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24

any help would greatfully appreciated.

It seems that the problem was caused by the constant at the beginning of the record and had nothing to do with date formats.
My control file now looks like this

Oracle 11g Goldengate working in a Data Guard environment

Hey Guys, I have the following setup:
Oracle 11.2.0.4.4 running on RHEL 6.6 64-bit
3 node RAC Primary
Single-node Standby with GI (Oracle Restart)
4 DBs on Primary - AA, BB, CC and DD
4 DBs running in Active Standby - AADR, BBDR, CCDR and DDDR
Databases AA and BB replicate schemas into CC, which is a Reporting/Operational Data Store. GoldenGate 11.2.x is used for the replication
XAG used for Goldengate HA
All good here with the Primary DBs and replication humming along quite nicely.
I have questions as part of building the DR environment. How should this work? As part of the real-time apply and active standby, CCDR should keep pace with the replicated primary DB CC. Now from a role transition perspective, I need to be have the GoldenGate software installed and configured on the Standby Server for starting the processes.
Question 1: When the role transition happens, based on the data guard role, I could well have a system trigger to spawn off a shell script that starts off the goldengate processes. Would this be the correct approach?
Question 2: Do I need to worry about setting/starting the extract/replicat from a specific CSN? The checkpoint table will be kept in sync as part of the SQL apply, so would just starting the extract and replicat process on the new Primary (old DR) work?
I am unable to get any pointers on this in Metalink. Would appreciate anyone could point me to a MOS document that talks about using GG and Data Guard together.
Thanks

On the first day, there is no backup to recover. It is only on the third day's run that this command will really be successful.
The white paper does explain this.

How can I convert this to Sql Server ?

>>You mean you get the data from Oracle and tries to insert it into SQL Server?
- no, sorry, I want to convert the syntax to Sql Server
>>Are
you running the query in OLEDB provider connected to the Oracle's database?
- yes, this works fine now (after fixing this redundancy:
to_char(to_date(sysdate,'dd-mon-yyyy'),'dd')change toto_char(sysdate,'dd')

Populate SQL table with data from Oracle DB in ODI

Hi,
I am trying to populate a source SQL table with fields from an Oracle db in ODI. I am trying to perform this using a procedure and I am am getting the following error:
ODI-1226: Step PROC_1_Contract_Sls_Person_Lookup fails after 1 attempt(s).
ODI-1232: Procedure PROC_1_Contract_Sls_Person_Lookup execution fails.
ODI-1228: Task PROC_1_Contract_Sls_Person_Lookup (Procedure) fails on the target MICROSOFT_SQL_SERVER connection Phys_HypCMSDatamart.
Caused By: weblogic.jdbc.sqlserverbase.ddc: [FMWGEN][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Invalid object name 'C2C_APP.CON_V'.
My question is what is the best method to populate SQL db with data from an Oracle db? Using a procedure? A specific LKM?
I found threads referring to using an LKM to populate Oracle tables with data from a SQL table....but nothing for the opposite.
Any information would help.
thanks,
Eric

Hi Eric,
If using an Interface, I would recommend the LKM SQL to MSSQL (BULK) knowledge module. This will unload the data from Oracle into a file, then bulk load the staging db on the target using a BULK INSERT.

SQL*Loader Sequential Data File Record Processing?

If I use the conventional path will SQL*Loader process a data file sequentially from top to bottom? I have a file comprised of header and detail records with no value found in the detail records that can be used to relate to the header records. The only option is to derive a header value via a sequence (nextval) and then populate the detail records with the same value pulled from the same sequence (currval). But for this to work SQL*Loader must process the file in the exact same sequence that the data has been written to the data file. I've read through the 11g Oracle® Database Utilities SQL*Loader sections looking for proof that this is what will happen but haven't found this information and I don't want to assume that SQL*Loader will always process the data file records sequentially.
Thank you

Oracle Support responded with the following statement.
"Yes, SQL*LOADER process data file from top to bottom.
This was touched in the note below:

How do I migrate views from MS SQL 2008 to Oracle 11g through SQL Developer

Is there any way to migrate the views from MS SQL 2008 to Oracle 11g through SQL Developer? Please give me some detail steps. Thanks for your help.

Hi Turloch,
When I use migrate to oracle, I got a problem, the migrate tool create a new schema for me in my case (AZTECA_KSMMS), it migrates all the stuffs under that schema (AZTECA_KSMMS). However my application need the all the Oracle data under schema AZTECA instead of AZTECA_KSMMS. Is there any way to specify specific schema (AZTECA) for target oracle database? Schema remapping is available:
First Capture (separately) then during right click convert on the captured model there is a Specify the conversion options with a Object Naming tab where the schema (and other) name changes are editable.
I have not used this recently.
Also during the migration process, when I choose repository, there is a check box for truncate to reset repository to empty state, Do I need to check that truncate Check Box so the repository will be cleared from last migration?The repository can hold multple migration attempts. Check truncate to get rid of previous attempts information. This cleans up the repository - not the destination database.
There are also online database and offline database options during the migration process, what are the difference between these two choices? After I migrated to Oracle, all my views has a red cross icon next to it. Does that mean the view migration is failed or not? Please give me your comments. Thanks for your help.offline: for big (amount of data) databases with simple data types,
uses bcp + files + scripts + sqlldr.
online: for small (amount of data) databases (easier),
uses (Java) jdbc.
The view is likely to be broken - recompiling it may help.
The Oracle schema is created using a .sql file - see under generated in the directory you gave originally in the wizard. There is a .out file that contains the result of running this script including any errors. During conversion there are also likely to be warnings displayed on the UI.
There may be a single issue that is causing multiple issues - if viewa depends on functionb, and functionb is broken, viewa will also fail.

Problem using SQL Loader with ODI

Hi,
I am having problems using SQL Loader with ODI. I am trying to fill an oracle table with data from a txt file. At first I had used "File to SQL" LKM, but due to the size of the source txt file (700MB), I decided to use "File to Oracle (SQLLDR)" LKM.
The error that appears in myFile.txt.log is: "SQL*Loader-101: Invalid argument for username/password"
I think that the problem could be in the definition of the data server (Physical architecutre in topology), because I have left blank Host, user and password.
Is this the problem? What host and user should I use? With "File to SQL" works fine living this blank, but takes to much time.
Thanks in advance

I tried to use your code, but I couldn´t make it work (I don´t know Jython). I think the problem could be with the use of quotes
Here is what I wrote:
import os
retVal = os.system(r'sqlldr control=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.ctl log=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.log userid=MYUSER/myPassword @ mySID')
if retVal == 1 or retVal > 2:
raise 'SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details '
And the error message is:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 5, in ?
SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details

I have one problem with Data Guard. My archive log files are not applied.

I have one problem with Data Guard. My archive log files are not applied. However I have received all archive log files to my physical Standby db
I have created a Physical Standby database on Oracle 10gR2 (Windows XP professional). Primary database is on another computer.
In Enterprise Manager on Primary database it looks ok. I get the following message Data Guard status Normal
But as I wrote above the archive log files are not applied
After I created the Physical Standby database, I have also done:
1. I connected to the Physical Standby database instance.
CONNECT SYS/SYS@luda AS SYSDBA
2. I started the Oracle instance at the Physical Standby database without mounting the database.
STARTUP NOMOUNT PFILE=C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\initluda.ora
3. I mounted the Physical Standby database:
ALTER DATABASE MOUNT STANDBY DATABASE
4. I started redo apply on Physical Standby database
alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session
5. I switched the log files on Physical Standby database
alter system switch logfile
6. I verified the redo data was received and archived on Physical Standby database

Hi,
After several tries my redo logs are applied now. I think in my case it had to do with the tnsnames.ora. At this moment I have both database in both tnsnames.ora files using the SID and not the SERVICE_NAME.
Now I want to use DGMGRL. Adding a configuration and a stand-by database is working fine, but when I try to enable the configuration DGMGRL gives no feedback and it looks like it is hanging. The log, although says that it succeeded.
In another session 'show configuration' results in the following, confirming that the enable succeeded.
DGMGRL> show configuration
Configuration
Name: avhtest
Enabled: YES
Protection Mode: MaxPerformance
Fast-Start Failover: DISABLED
Databases:
avhtest - Primary database
avhtestls53 - Physical standby database
Current status for "avhtest":
Warning: ORA-16610: command 'ENABLE CONFIGURATION' in progress
It there anybody that experienced the same problem and/or knows the solution to this?
With kind regards,
Martin Schaap

How to connect from Oracle 11g to SQL Server 2008 R2

Hi,
Is it possible to connect from Oracle 11g on AIX to SQL Server 2008 R2? If so, what is the preferred method?
SQL Server has the original table. From Oracle 11g, we want to access data which is in SQL Server real time.
Thank You

Hi,
Have a look at these Oracle notes for the full information on the gateways -
Master Note for Oracle Gateway Products (Doc ID 1083703.1)
Functional Differences Between DG4ODBC and Specific Database Gateways (Doc ID 252364.1)
Gateway and Generic Connectivity Licensing Considerations (Doc ID 232482.1)
How to Setup DG4MSQL (Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server) 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX,HP-UX) (Doc ID 562509.1)
How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install (Doc ID 561033.1)
The Database Gateway for SQL*Server (DG4MSQL) needs a separate license but the Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) is included in your RDBMS license. You only need to provide the third party ODBC driver needed by DG4ODBC.

Oracle 11i(11.5.0.2) Data guard setup

Hi,
Hi, I am currently doing a test for 11i(with10.2.0.3 db) with Data guard. Since I have only one test server. I have created the Primary,Standby and the application Tier on one server. After switching over to the standby and trying to run autconfig on the application tier, it fails with TNS-entry not found. I would like to know that if its mandatory that the Primary and Standby db should have the same listener port or not.
Thanks

Implemeting 11gR2 RAC with Data Guard

Hi ,
Could any one provide the steps on how to setup 11gR2 two node RAC With Dataguard . Could the 11R2 Active database duplication can be used in setting up the standby ?
I just need the order of steps to be followed to set up the environment.
Thanks,
shashi.

Hi Fiedi ,
Thanks for the reply .
I know how to build the oracle dataguard . But , I'm looking for the order of steps that I need to follow to build 11gR2 RAC with data guard.
1] Set up the Grid Infrsatructure for the 2 node RAC .
2] Create the database .
3] Modify the init.ora prameter to chage the above created database as primary .
4] Set up the grid infrastructure for the 2 node RAC on the DR site.
5] Create the standby database using 11gR2 active database dupication.
Is the above order correct ? If not , let me know the correct order of steps that needs to be followed to setup 11gR2 RAC with dataguard.
