Oracle 8.1.7.4 32 bit and SGA size

hi gurus,
OS : solaris 5.8 64 bit
Oracle: 8.1.7.4 32 bit
i have seen documents saying that maximum SGA allocation possible is only 1.75 GB due to 32 bit application limitation.
is there a way in which we can allocate > 1.75 GB for the SGA granules?
any option like /AWE in windows?
thanks,
charles

OS : solaris 5.8 64 bit
Oracle: 8.1.7.4 32 bitAs far as i know mixing 32-bit database and 64-bit operating system is not supported - as 8i is.
Anyway with a 32-bit database you are basically limited to 2 GB per process. You can use "indirect_data_buffer" which will
enable you to increase your database block buffers > 2 GB....

  • MY RAM IS 12GB  HOW WOULD YOU SUGGEST SHMMAX SIZE AND SGA SIZE

    Hi Export
    MY RAM IS 12GB HOW WOULD YOU SUGGEST SHMMAX SIZE AND SGA SIZE.

    Do you have a performance problem yet ??
    Is the problem a global problem in the whole database, or are there just some queries that are slow ??
    What db version are you using ??
    What other applications are using this server ??
    How many users are using this database ??
    Tuning is very much dependent on the application/situation and database type.
    I would like to suggest you start looking at AWR or Statspack.

  • Running Oracle on Windows 2008 R2 64-bits and WCF

    I'm trying to deploy to a Windows 2008 R2 64-Bits server running AppFabric a WCF 4.0 service that connects to an Oracle 10gR2 database. On my Windows 7 64-Bits, inside Visual Studio 2010, everything goes well. I first started using Oracle ODP.NET and, on deploy, I started getting the:
    System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Oracle.DataAccess, Version=2.112.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
    File name: 'Oracle.DataAccess, Version=2.112.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342'
    I tried so many things, and nothing seemed to work, and since I'm kinna desperate to get this working, and went to OracleClient, despite the fact that it's marked as deprecated, just to get this working, and buy me time. I removed everything I had installed, but installed just the win64_11gR2_client.zip, with the runtime option. However, than I started getting:
    System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'oramts.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
    So I reinstalled the win64_11gR2_client.zip, adding the Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server component. But then, whenever I made a call to my WCF service, IIS would crash with the error below:
    Faulting application name: w3wp.exe, version: 7.5.7601.17514, time stamp: 0x4ce7afa2

    If I tried to change the AppPool to enable 32-bits application, the WSDL doesn't even get generated, and I get the:
    A process serving application pool 'MyAppPool' suffered a fatal communication error with the Windows Process Activation Service. The process id was '2856'. The data field contains the error number.
    I'm lost, and I don't know what to do. How can it be this hard to do a "simple" and typical Oracle set up? What problem would I try to solve? Does anyone know of a blog post that would show how to correctly set this up? I tried looking, but coudln't find anything, and I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem
    Well, any help would be really appreciated. Tks so much

    Supported on Win 2008 R2 64bit is only 10gR2( with patchset level 10.2.0.5) and 11gR2. Oracle support will refuse any assistance for earlier versions, that should you keep in mind. Although some people say client is not so critical as the database server.

  • Oracle RAC and SGA size

    Hello,
    I read somewhere that for Oracle RAC environments, it is necessary to size the SGA 10% - 15% bigger than it would be for a normal, single-instance environment. This would be necessary because of the Cache Fusion feature, which creates a global virtual cache between all nodes of the RAC.
    I ask you: Does this make any sense, or it is not correct to add 10%-15% to the SGA, compared to a single-instance environment?
    Thanks for your attention.

    I read it on metalink... on the foruns. But i didin't save the link... still looking for it
    I'm doing a study about a new instance that will be created on an environment. I'm just analyzing the memory that will be necessary for the new instance + application, acording to the minimum requirements of the application that will be installed in the environment (this application will use this new instance).

  • When setting up Hugepages are both PGA and SGA sizes relevant or just SGA?

  • Install sqldeveloper on windows 7 64 Bit and Oracle 11.2

    Hi,
    how can I find the rigth jdk. I installed JDK on C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_23.
    I installed Oracle 11.2 including sqldeveloper. But I cannot find the correct folder to start sqldeveloper.
    Where can I find this path?
    When I include a path with java.exe I get the error "Unable to find a Java Virtual Machine. To point to a locacion of a Java Virtual Machine, pleaser refer to the Oracle9i Jdeveloper Install guide (jdev\install.html)" Where can I find this?
    Thank you for your help
    Siegwin

    I am on Windows 7 64 bit. I see that installing Oracle 11.2 database installs SQL Developer also but that doesn't work. I get the .bat file not found crap. What I then did was do a seperate install of SQL Developer for 64 bit, but that does NOT install the jdk.
    I then did the java install from:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u25-download-346242.html
    I selected: jdk-6u25-windows-x64.exe
    I then point to the java.exe where this install loaded it (c:\program files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\bin when I start up sql developer and it still gives the same error. I delete the SetJavaHome value in the sqldeveloper.conf file and try again over and over but it still gives the same error.
    So, I have windows 7 - 64 bit operating system. I have Oracle 11.2 database installed. I have a seperate installation of SQL Developer 64 bit and I have the java jdk for 64 bit installed.
    Nothing is working. Can anyone please steer me in the correct direction? Should I delete the second install of SQL Developer 64 bit and to an install of SQL Developer 32 bit?
    Please help

  • Guide to installing XE and Apex on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 (64 bit)

    I have just been through a time consuming and frustrating process of installing Oracle XE 10gR2 on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 x86-64 and I want to share my experience so that others can benefit from it and overcome the same problems more quickly.
    Prior to starting I had installed OEL 5.3 and been using it for a few days. The system I am using is a home built box with an AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition, 8 Gb RAM, Highpoint RR2680 RAID controller with 4 1TB disks in a RAID5 array and an additional 320Gb HDD storing the OS. I am using KDE3.5 on the desktop.
    The main problem I encountered was with SELinux. As I eventually intend to have this system exposed on the Internet I was reluctant to switch it off despite having read extensively about the issues surrounding it and Oracle. I had several failed attempts at the installation process before succumbing to the reality that SELinux and Oracle are not happy bedfellows. I decided to switch SELinux to permissive mode having followed the advice here.
    I found a very helpful guide to installing XE on Linux here as part of the installation of an application called Spacewalk. Note that you do not need to complete the whole Spacewalk installation, but just follow the instructions in the linked page.
    Before you start you need to ensure that the UID of your oracle user is less than 500. Mine was 500, so I used the following commands to fix this:
    usermod -u 250 oracle
    find / -uid 500 -exec chown oracle {} \;
    These change the oracle UID to 250 (but check that isn't already used first!) and the find command searches for all files that were owned by oracle (but weren't after the usermod cmd) and changes them back to oracle's ownership.
    Now follow the Spacewalk instructions until you reach the Server Setup section. Before you do this you need to make a couple of changes to the script /etc/init.d/oracle-xe. I found these changes in various places, such as [link(1)|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=1345771&#1345771] and [link(2)|http://dbataj.blogspot.com/2008/08/lblibrarypath-is-not-set-on-startup.html].
    Note that in link(1) the oracle-xe-selinux packages installed have the same effect as the chcon command on the shared libraries so it isn't necessary to perform this step.
    Open /etc/init.d/oracle-xe in vi (or your favourite editor) and do the following:
    line 49: change /bin/su to /sbin/runuser
    after line 52 (export PATH...) add the following lines:
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    There are further changes recommended to /etc/init.d/oracle-xe in [this post|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=3201491&#3201491] but I haven't done them yet.
    Having done the above changes you can now configure Oracle XE by running /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure (as root!). As I have Apache Tomcat running on port 8080 I changed the default HTTP port to 8500 but kept the listener on its default port of 1521. Once the confuration script is done you will need to change the ports SELinux uses for Oracle as follows:
    semanage port -d -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 9000 - deletes port 9000, which is the SELinux default port for Apex
    semanage port -a -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 1521 - ensure that listener port is OK (assuming you used default of 1521, change accordingly if you didn't)
    semanage port -a -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 8500 - add the new Apex HTTP port to SELinux
    After all this running:
    semanage port -l | grep oracle
    should show you:
    oracle_port_t tcp 1521, 8500
    I ignored the TNSNAMES.ORA part of the Spacewalk instructions and proceeded with the 'Client setup on 64bit platform' and 'Configuring sqlplus' sections.
    For the latter I created a bash script which I have made available in the oracle user and my own user's home directories:
    cat > configure_oracle_10g_xe.sh
    ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server
    PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
    ORACLE_SID=XE
    export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID PATH
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    I did this as I intend to install other Oracle databases, e.g. 11gR2, on this box later so I didn't want to put the above in .bashrc.
    Having done the above you should be able to log into the database using sqlplus and the XE setup is complete.
    The upgrade of Apex 2.2 to Apex 3.2.1 was fairly painless so I won't go into much detail about it - just follow the instructions provided by Oracle.
    The only issue I had was right at the end of the process and is documented and answered in [this thread|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=958611&tstart=0].
    That's it - I hope somebody will find this useful.

    On Oracle Metalink site, there are many documents which says that Oracle 32 bit software works on 32 bits OS and 64 bits software works on 64 bits OS. Official support is only in those combination....
    So there is no good way to help you in your case-XE is 32 bit application with hard codded compiled libraries which most of them would not work on 64 bit OS.
    Sorry

    Hope this helps

  • Oracle 8.1.5  windows NT 32 BIT and we want to migrate to 10.2.0.1 on windo

    We have Oracle 8.1.5 windows NT 32 BIT and we want to migrate to 10.2.0.1 on windows 2003 64-BIT
    Please suggest me what is best way ...to go for export import or taking cold backup and migrate
    Think twice because i m going for production
    ANY UPDATES!!!!!!!!!
    Message was edited by:
    user531314

    Depends on how big is your database.
    For small database, doing a export and import is quick and dirty.
    For larger database, I would suggest migrate the database. But this means a lot of work and test. This is what I would do if I am doing amigration:
    1. Do a cold backup of your 815 database
    2. On your new test box, try to install 815 and start your old database
    3. Upgrade your database to 8174
    4. Install 10gr2 on your new test box
    5. Migrate your 8174 database to 10gr2.
    6 Test a lot
    7. Repeat steps 1-6 2-3 times
    8. Document tthe process and your test results completely.
    9. Repeat what you document on your production box.

  • Oracle Client 64-bit and Oracle Client 32-bit on the same server

    Hi,
    I have a Windows 2008 server 64-bit with Oracle Client 64-bit and Oracle Client 32-bit installed on different directories (D:\Oracle and D:\Oracle32)
    Is it possible to define for certain applications to use the TNSNAMES entry from the 64-bit Oracle Client
    and for other applications to use the TNSNAMES entry from the 32-bit Oracle Client
    Once I installed the Oracle Client 32-bit (Oracle Client 64-bit version was already installed) and restarted the server I performed a TNSPING and it defaulted to the Oracle Client 32-bit installation path
    Thanks,
    Barry

    Hello,
    When you install a new client on a server, it will update the PATH variable, and add the ORACLE_HOME\bin path to it, at the first place. That explains why the tnsping use the last installed ORACLE_HOME.
    What you can do if you want only to change the default path to the tnsnames is to set the environment variable TNS_ADMIN to the path where the tnsnames you want to use is located. You can modify this variable in your application if you want to use another tnsnames.
    If you want switch from 32 bits to 64 bits client, then you have to modify the PATH variable.
    Hope this will help.
    Best regards,
    Sylvie

  • SQL Server 2005 64 bit and Oracle 9

    Hi,
    I have a situation which involves SQL Server 2005 64 bit and Oracle 9 32 bit,
    I have a requirement that involves creating Stored Procedures from Oracle 9 which will call tables from SQL Server 2005 64 bit, with operations involving 'Select' 'Insert' 'Update' and 'Delete'.
    it works fins, except when attempting to search for an SQL Server 'varchar' value, wher no mapping is done
    though the Oracle sees the field as 'varchar2'
    can anyone please advice on this
    thanks
    Basel

    I think you're somehow not getting a resuklt because you're query doesn't return any data.
    Why the fiealdA=pat=parameterA construct? Wouldn't it just work if you changed it to fieldA=parameterA?
    Also, can you not just define parameterA as a varchar to make them match?
    What if you do "select * from (<your query without where>) a where a.fieldA = :parameterA"
    While not efficient, it would make the filtering occur in Oracle and maybe that will let you see the problem in native Oracle land and then reuse the solution in your orginal query. If that doesn't work, drop the where clause and inspect the data closly and hardcode a simple where without using PL*SQL or bind variables.

  • ORACLE DATAGUARD and STANDBY on two LINUX   machine (64 bits and 32 bits)

    Hi there
    I have two Linux machines: one with Linux RH 4 Update 2 for 64 bits and
    the other one with Linux RH 4 Update 2 for 32 bits.
    I was wondering two things:
    1) Is it possible to implement ORACLE DATAGUARD between these two machines?
    2) Is it possible to implement only a Static Standby Database on the second node?
    Suppose we have Oracle Database EE on both machines.
    Thanks in advance for any information
    Regards
    Felipe

    But both oracle database version must be of 32 bit version.
    from oracle doc
    2.3.1 Hardware and Operating System Requirements
    The following list describes hardware and operating system requirements for using Data Guard:
    All members of a Data Guard configuration must run an Oracle image that is built for the same platform.
    For example, this means a Data Guard configuration with a primary database on a 32-bit Linux on Intel system can have a standby database that is configured on a 32-bit Linux on Intel system. However, a primary database on a 64-bit HP-UX system can also be configured with a standby database on a 32-bit HP-UX system, as long as both servers are running 32-bit images.

    Hello Gurus, one question for you..
    We are installing FIN 9.1 over Tools 8.51 on Windows 2008 and with Oracle 11g2. Our questions is which is the best configuration?
    - 11gR2 64 bits and 32 bits client (for application/ batch server)? Would this actually work?
    - 11gR2 32 bits (even though it's not certified)?
    I would gladly appreciate any advise/comments. Thanks.
    Andy

    You'll need to install Oracle 64bit (for the database - the 32bit database software won't install on a 64bit OS), and since you're on Windows, you'll also need the Oracle 32bit client (unlike previous version, there's no 32bit librairies delivered within 11gR2 64bit database software). It is fully certified and works fine.
    Nicolas.
