Oracle 8i EE under Solaris on Intel

Hello,
1. I Would like to know if anybody is using Oracle Enterprise server on Solaris on Intel for production ?
2. How many users on an average connect to this server? Is this your production server ?
3. Your experience and comments using Oracle Enterprise server on
Solaris for Intel.
We are basically looking at :
1. reliability
2. scaleability
3. performance
4. maintenance
5. total cost of ownership
Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely
Sky Maroboina

Oracle 8i/9i on Solaris x86[Intel]...

Hello All,
I would like to know if Oracle 8i or 9i is available for Solaris Intel [x86] version. Its there for the SPARC platform. It would be nice if anyone could let me know about this. I need it to practise for my OCA/OCP exams....
Thanking you'll. Kindly email me on [email protected]
Best Wishes,
Plascio

A part the risk that instance crash can lead to validated transaction loss, Oracle 8i can run without no problems on Solaris 2.6 intel (I really found this problem on 2.7 but I think it exists also on 2.6)

Connect to MS-SQL Server from a Oracle 10g running under Solaris

Hi,
I have the following problem. I want to access a MS-SQL server from an Oracle database (10g Enterprise licence) that is running on Solaris.
After googling a while, the following questions arise:
- Is it correct that the Oracle Transparant Gateway for the SQL Server is not available on Solaris platforms (but only on Windows)?
- Is it right, that the second possibility to solve this problem is to use an SQL-Server odbc driver for Solaris and access the SQL-Server over ODBC? And: Is this feature included in the Enterprise licence?
- If yes, which driver is good and cheap ;-)?
- Is there any other way to solve this problem?
Thanks
Aron

I believe the Transparenet Gateway for SQL Server is available on Solaris. The problem is that you need a Unix based ODBC driver which you will also need to pay for.
We had this same problem and decided to run a windows based Heterogeneous Services gateway and routed through it instead of using the SQL Server transparent gateway. The Heterogenous severives gateway is NOT an add on product (as is Transparent Gateway). The drawback would be performance as I would expect the native MS SQL transparent gateway to perform better, but in our case it worked acceptably.

What Oracle binary for x86 Solaris ????

Is there even an Oracle binary available for Solaris on intel (X86, 32 bit architecture)?
Can someone tell me what, if any, Oracle instance is available for an Intel box (x86) running Solaris 8.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Peter

Hi
Oracle 8.1.7 (relase 3) can be ordered for Solaris X86 for Intel. Please contact your local Oracle Sales representative on how to order these.
Alternatively, you can also check with the Oracle Store in technet.oracle.com
Note : Oracle 9 for Solaris 8.0 is not available.

Forte and Solaris on Intel

Has anyone tried hosting a Forte environment under Solaris on Intel aka.
Solaris 7/8 Intel Platform Editions?

What is the code to increment that static variable?
I assume there is a function in the same translation
unit that performs this increment.
You can trace it in dbx (or with dtrace) to check if
it is ever called.Yes the static variable does get incremented in the same file and the function doing the increment get's called.. Remember this all works fine under Solaris 8.
I'd love to use dbx but we found that we needed to make one huge so file to get dbx running usefully before. Dloading files under dbx didn't seem to work. Remember that this is a huge app and we have modules from all over the place each with a different build strategy.
Something seems to be clobbering my static variables. I'm think that maybe a structure size has changed since Solaris 8 and maybe that's overwriting stuff. Or maybe we did have a memory issue that Solaris 8 ignores. I remember we had plenty of those when upgrading from Solaris 4/6.
But it looks like I may need to roll up my sleeves and try a full recompile. Deep sigh.
Any more help would be appreciated.

Porting of Sybase Application to Oracle 8i under Solaris

Dear All
I want to port an application from sybase 10.2 which is running under Solaris to Oracle 8I under Solaris. Apart from database objects and stored procedures which I have already converted I wan to conver some C Codes and Unix Scripts
Which are either shell scripts or perl programs. I need all of your valuable suggestions in this regard.
Q-1 . In the Perl Program the following lines are sybase specific
Use Sybase:: Dblib
Require /files0/apps/local/lib/perl15/Sybase/sybperl.pl;
What will be the equivalent for ORACLE.
Suggest what perl I should use in this context.
In continuation to the above also I have some shell variables assigned as follows
$SYB_SERVER=SYB_PROD_CERT;
$SYB_DATABASE=APPLDB;
$ENV{SYBASE}=/sybase/10.0.4;
$ENV{DSQUERY}=$SYB_SERVER
$SYB_USER=keshav;
$SYB_PWFILE=/myappl/processcert/passwords/$SYB_SERVER;
$SYB_PW=/usr/bin/cat $SYB_PWFILE;
chop($SYB_PW);
dbmsghandle(message_handler);
dberrhandle(error_handler);
( ($dbproc = &dblogin($SYB_USER,$SYB_PW,$SYB_SERVER)) != -1 );
( &dbuse($dbproc, $SYB_DATABASE) != -1 );
( ($dbproc2 = &dblogin($SYB_USER,$SYB_PW,$SYB_SERVER)) != -1 );
( &dbuse($dbproc2, $SYB_DATABASE) != -1 );
sub Statistics
# get distinct sub-cat counts
( &dbcmd($dbproc, "select count(*),orgnumber,name=(select servicerorgname from servicer where servicer.orgnumber=transactionlog.orgnumber) from transactionlog group by orgnumber order by count(*) desc\n") != -1 );
&dbsqlexec($dbproc);
&dbresults($dbproc);
$row = DBROWS( $dbproc );
2. One of the Sample C Program is given here which I want to convert into pro*c.
I would like to know what are the corresponding libraries of oracle under
Solaris are to be used and also the respective header files mapping of Sybase
To Oracle. Any comment of this will be appreciated.

Hello
The "-D_BIG_ENDIAN" shows you that the code is endian-dependent. This means that the program cannot be ported 1:1 because x86 is little endian while Sparc is big-endian.
I would first try to use "-D_LITTLE_ENDIAN" (or what flag ever I can find in the source codes) and to compile for x86.
Because of the "-D_BIG_ENDIAN" different source code is used for both machines. Maybe the little-endian source code is wrong:
#ifdef _BIG_ENDIAN
// correct source code for Sparc
#else
// INCORRECT source code for x86
#endifMartin

Oracle into Solaris for Intel

Does the Oracle database for Solaris for SunSPARC, works into a
Solaris for Intel?
Do you know, where I can download an Oracle for Solaris for
Intel?
That Oracle database version is the only one, wich is not in the
OTN download page.

I bought Sun Solaris 8 (Intel platform) from SUN - you just have to pay the media & shipping fees. Oracle 8i (for Intel Sun Solaris8) was included in the package .
Check on www.sun.com for more details.

Oracle 8.1.5 & Solaris 8

Hi,
We are upgrading from solaris 7 to 8 and I was told 8.1.5 release is the only one that is supported by this OS. Can someone tell me where to look for or find installation documentation? Thank you for your help.

This will not work. We have not built the native libraries to work with
Solaris on Intel..
I suggest trying the platform independent type 4 JDBC driver available for
free from Oracle. It is supported (as is any JDBC driver) with WebLogic
Server. To download it:
Go to http://www.oracle.com and select the "Download" option.
From the resulting page, use the "Select Utility or Driver" dropdown to
select Oracle JDBC drivers
From the resulting page, scroll down a little (since SQLJ stuff appears at
the top).
Or, to go directly there:

Recently, I tried to install the Oracle 10g client in Redhat Enterprise Linux 4.0 with x86-64 (Intel EM64T) platform. As I know,that is either Oracle 9i or Oracle 10g has been certified to Redhat AS 3.0 operating system.
How can I install Oracle 10g normally under all x86-64 platforms? Or, When does Oracle to release out the patch for all x86-64 versions?

Please reffer to Installation section.

2. MainBoard = ASUS K8V-MX.
3. RAM-= 512 MB DDR PC3200

9. HDD = 40 GB Samsung 7200 RPM.
If anybody knows let me know at my e-mail [email protected]

I don't think you will have many problems in this platform, but I'm not 100% sure.
What I recommend you is to get the VMWare and try there. VMWare is a software where you can create a virtual machine running under windows. In this virtual machine you could install solaris 10 (and any other OS you want to test in your computer). I have my Solaris 10 running under VMWare with excellent results (Laptop with Intel Celeron processor)... where I have VMWare installed in Windows!

Oracle 11.1.0 + Solaris 10 10/08 + Database Creation failed

Dear all,
we have installed Oracle 11.1.0 on a Solaris 10 10/08 T5220 system and
the DB server installs fine.
When we try now to create the database by dbca the following errors
at the "Completing Database Creation" step were seen:
ORA-12801: error signaled in parallel query server P073.
ORA-00018: maximum number of sessions exceeded
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 629
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_RECOMP", line 671
ORA-06512: at line 1
We learnt from the net that an increase of the SESSIONS / PROCESSES
parameters in the init.ora file should help us.
Regardless which number for these parameters we used
(PROCESSES = 1000 or 5000 or 10000) the errors above still occured.
We turned also off parallelism but without success!
Is this a bug and/or is there any other method to create the database
without any errors?
THX,
Rainer

I got it now by putting the "sessions" parameter into the template file General_purpose.dbc
used by dbca.
By the way:
I tried also to install Oracle 11g on a Sun with only 4gb RAM
under Solaris 10 10/08. I got the error
ORA-27102 Out of Memory
Does this mean that we need more physical RAM now?
