Oracle 9i and upgrade Windows 2000 to Windows 2003

Hi,
We have a Oracle 9i (9.2.0.6.0 Enterprise Edition) running under Windows 2000 and the OS group is going to upgrade to Windows 2003.
My question is: will Oracle keep working?
I hope so because we are not allowed to upgrade to 10g or 11g and I think Oracle 9i for Windows 2003 can't be downloaded anymore.
regards,
Ivan

No,you have to upgrade your database(startup upgrade) or compile all invalid objects,using above sqls due to your OS version changed and your cold backup shoul be startup upgrade/migrate option.This is not required.
Please refer to :

Procedure When Upgrading Windows 2003 Operating System From Standard To Enterprise Ed. [ID 798175.1]
RegardsRajesh
Please see your suggested doc
- Take a cold backup of you existing database before you start OS and DB upgrade .
- Upgrade the Operating system (refer your OS documentation for detail)
- Execute 'relink all '
- Verify that the existing database is working fine with the upgraded Operating system.
- Take one more cold backup before you start Database upgrade
- Install Oracle Software (to which you want to upgrade) in new oracle home.
- Upgrade database (refer the upgrade/migration guide for complete instruction ) *Process To Upgrade the Operating System and Oracle Database Server [ID 407055.1]*
It means you need startup upgrade/migrate.

    Hello,
    Just upgrading the OS to 2003 should be OK as 640 - 700 kernel is supported on Windows 2003

  • Migrate print server from Windows 2000 to Windows 2008 R2

    Hi,
    Want to transfer NTFS permission of printers from Windows 2000 to Windows 2008 R2.
    Any method can do it ??
    Thanks

    From your description, I understand that you want to copy ntfs permission of printer  folder
    from one server to another.
    you can use subinacl to do the same.. 
    To backup the permissions of the folder, subfolders and files on folder called Data on the G: drive:
    subinacl /noverbose /output=c:\ntfs_perms.txt /subdirectories G:\data\
    If you wanted to just backup the NTFS permissions for the entire drive, the command would look like this:
    subinacl /noverbose /output=c:\ntfs_G_drive_perms.txt /subdirectories G:\*.*
    Most of you will probably not be concerned with backing up down to the file level, and are satisfied with just backing up the permissions at the directory level.  Backing up the permissions for just the directories can be
    achieved with the following syntax:
    subinacl /noverbose /output=c:\G_driveNTFSperms.txt /subdirectories=directoriesonly G:\*.*
    To restore the permissions on the drive using the file that you backed them up to:
    Subinacl /playfile c:\G_driveNTFSperms.txt

  • ODBC errors for Oracle Migration Workbench and SQL Server 2000 on Windows

    Hi all-
    I setup a new ODBC connection for the Oracle 10g Migration Workbench to MS SQL Server 2000 on Windows XP and keep getting the following errors when I try to
    either test the new ODBC connection to MS SQL Server 2000 for use with the Oracle Migration Workbench tool. Goal is to fix these errors so that I can migrate our test SQL Server 2000 databases to Oracle 10g.
    Current configuration
    - Oracle 10.1 Migration Workbench
    - Oracle 10g Database (target)
    - MS SQL Server 2000 (source database)
    -Windows XP
    -ODBC 3.85.1117 driver for Windows XP with SQL Server and Oracle
    Errors:
    I. When I test the ODBC connection:
    Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver Version 03.85.1117
    Running connectivity tests...
    Attempting connection
    [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]Specified SQL server not found.
    TESTS FAILED!
    Now here is what has me totally confused:
    I can use the command line ISQL to access the database on the server and IP is all correct and port is available. So I can access the SQL Server database fine it is when I try to setup ODBC that it gives me problems.
    Any tips how to get this ODBC working?
    Thanks

    1. Jing Jin. If you had READ the post you would have seen that installing later versions is NOT an option.
    2. Not supported does NOT mean does NOT work, as Balmukund pointed out in the referenced thread.  The site that this databases supports is using ASP which is also NOT supported by Microsoft.  As it turns out Balmukund's solution actually turns
    out to be the correct solution.  I installed SS2K and its Service pack 4 on the machine last night.  Good answer Balmukund. as we say in the Navy, "BRAVO ZULU!!"  which means "WELL DONE!!
    3. Tom Li I just posted the question less than 48 hours ago.  My last post was less than 24 hours ago.  I think I have the right to be given the opportunity to determine whether a reply is the answer or not. I understand you don't like unanswered
    posts sitting around for weeks, months or years. (I don't like it either as I have a few that are still unanswered after several years.)  But you should not be showing replies as answers before I even get a chance to see them, much less try them out. 
    You should also not be showing replies as answers which don't address the criteria of the question.  I specifically stated that I had to install SS2K.  I went on to state, "And before anyone asks I need to install this version because that is what
    the customer is using and I need to duplicate their databases."  So the correct answer, if in fact SS2K did not work on Windows 7, would have been a virtual machine answer, as suggested on the thread Balmukund referenced.  So before you mark a reply
    as an answer read the question.

  • Can we install Oracle 8i and 10g on the same windows server?

    I would like to install the Oracle server 8i and 10g on the same windows server? Is this possible.
    Forgive me if this question is already asked.
    Thanks in advance!
    Jay.

    WHICH Windows version? (There's more than one). It would be useful to be a little bit more precise (NT,2000,XP,2003, 32/64 bit) .
    For NT and 2000 it is possible to have both 8i and 10g, for XP and 2003 there's no support for 8i at all.

  • Moving oracle 9i database from windows 2000 to windows 2003 server

    hi everybody,
    plz provide me a solution how to move oracle 9i database from windows 2000 server to windows 2003 server with step by step and also with commands plz as i am very new to oracle
    thanks in advance
    suresh

    Install 9i on windows 2003 server and patch to the same level as the Oracle on Windows 2k
    Shutdown and make a cold backup of your old database. That includes datafiles, controlfiles, redo files, init file (spfile)
    Copy and put these files to the exact same directory structure/location, for example if old file is under D:\oradata\mysid\ then the file on new file should be under same directory. (If you are using Network Storage that make things easier, just mapping to the same drive letter.)
    Also make sure archive log dest and all dump dest directories are created. You don't have to copy all old logs and dump files over.
    Use oradim to create a new service for the database instance
    http://www.psoug.org/reference/oradim.html
    Set proper ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID envionment varibles
    Run netca to configure listener, actually copy listener.ora and tnsnames.ora to $ORACLE_HOME\network\admin will do
    Try to start the database

  • Migrating application from Windows 2000 to Windows XP Pro SP3

    I just got a new computer with Windows XP Pro SP3 installed and need an application that was installed on my old, really old, computer running Windows 2000. The application was developed by a third party in 1997 and uses Oracle as the database engine. It uses Developer 2000 for the interface. Our IT person, who is lightyears ahead of anyone I've ever known when it comes to hardware and software, could not get the application to run on my new computer. We get error FRM-40039 when we try to open the application. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I use this application intermittantly all day and right now the "solution" is for me to go to my old computer to use it. This would be like an editor trying to use a dictionary located in another room from which it could not be removed (and could not consult the internet).

    FRM-40039 is a Forms error, and Forms doesnt use ODBC. You'll probably get better help posting in the forum appropriate for that product. Unfortunately I'm not sure exactly what the forum is :(

  • Transfering information between Oracle 8 and SQL Server 2000

    I want to transfer some of the data stored in 4 different tables in my Oracle database and easy as possible to my SQL Server 2000 database. I found the import option in SQL2k which uses ODBCconnection to the Oracle but it needs the migration suit as far as I know. At the downloadarea there are only plug-ins for SQL Server 7 but not 2000.
    Am I even on the right track or is there any other way of accomplishing this?

    is there any known problem if I install Oracle 10g EE
    on the same machine where Sql Server 2000 EE is
    install?It's presently undocumented, but some of the ORACLE.EXE process threads are known to get stuck in an infinite loop whenever a SQL Server database is running on the same box. The infinite loops cause the SQL Server database to eventually shutdown, and then the loops are broken and Oracle returns to normal. Stack traces have revealed something like this, which would suggest that the Oracle process is actually communicating with SQL Server:
    Oracle:  laughAtGirlieDatabase()  /* infinite loop */
    SQL:     exit();-)

    We are trying to get Oracle 6i to work via ODBC with SQL Server 2000. We get it to login, but can't get it to do anything else.
    Any ideas? (I can be reached at [email protected])

  • Cannot migrate from Windows 2000 to Windows XP

    I was able to run the desktopdna.exe and CREATE a profile (or whatever)
    as per the docs.
    The docs have you write the file as the "workstation" name.
    But when I try to apply that to the new XP PC, it won't work because the
    workstation names aren't the same.
    So is there not a way to migrate from Win2K to XP unless you keep the
    workstation names the same? (our workstation names are never the same
    when re-imaging, etc. due to issues with AD as we don't give our
    helpdesk the ability to go into AD and delete the existing computer
    account).
    Or do I not follow the docs and just have it "write" the file with just
    a userid or some other method (in which case they'd probably end up
    whacking the wrong machine if they have multiple machines).

As I woudl like to know what our options here .any reference will be more useful .You would need to go with Windows 2003 as Windows 2008 is not certified with 11i -- See (Oracle Applications Installation Update Notes, Release 11i (11.5.10.2) [ID 316806.1]) for details.
