Oracle database 32-bit or 64-bit

Hi,
I want to install Oracle server 9.2 on a Xeon EM64T processor based machine.
Could anyone tell me which version of Oracle 9.2 I need :
32-bit or 64-bit ?
Thanks a lot
Christian Moungou

You can try to install 9i (64 bit) on the machine. If the OS is 64 bit, install will be successful, if not, the install will fail and it will give an error message saying that the OS is 32 bit, in which case, you can install 9i (32 bit).

10R2 installer 64-bit or 32-bit?

Hi all,
I have some doubts here. I have an installation DVD for Oracle Database 10g R2 for HP-UX Itanium, but I am not sure if it is for 64-bit or 32-bit; it's not printed on the DVD.
I also went to the 10g download page on OTN, again it is not mentioned, not like some other platforms like Linux, Solaris and Windows. I have also checked on 9i download page and on the contrary, there are two links for both HP-UX 32-bit and 64-bit.
How should I set my assumptions? Should it be 32-bit unless mention explicitly for 64-bit. To be installed on an HP-UX Itanium IA64 (64-bit). There are also Itanium 32-bit, but I am not sure if they are quite new and Oracle did not have the installer for the architecture. Kind of confused here.
Please assist, and thanks in advance.
Regards.

You can check platforms and certification on MetaLink if you have a support contract or also at [https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/certify/certify.istore_welcome]
For example, if I navigate through the selection screens for Platform- HP-UX Itanium and Database/Server, I see
Itanium Information
64-bit Oracle database software only supports 64-bit for Itanium. Oracle does not support running the 32-bit database on Itanium.
and then when I scroll down to the Oracle Database Product Versions selection list I see only 64bit versions of 11g, 10gR2, 10g and 9.2
Thus, there is no 32bit version of Oracle on Itanium and the 64bit version is only for 64bit Itanium.

Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
(Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w, deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
and
then
I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)" from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
The values I filled for
1) Global Database Name : orcl
2) System Identifier : orcl
3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
Username : sys/ as sysdba
Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

32 bit Oracle database 10g to 64 bit Oracle Database 11g on Windows 2008

Hi everybody,
I'm going to move and upgrade my 32 bit Oracle database server 10g to another 64 bit windows 2008 server.
New database server will be 64 bit Oracle database server 11g.
Somebody told me export import doesn't carry archieve logs therefore is there any way to move and upgrade the database without any lost?
Thanks for your help

I'm going to move and upgrade my 32 bit Oracle database server 10g to another 64 bit windows 2008 server.
New database server will be 64 bit Oracle database server 11g.
Somebody told me export import doesn't carry archieve logs therefore is there any way to move and upgrade the database without any lost?Yes, in export/import, you will create a new database and import. The question is why you want to prefer export/import?
is it source database 32bit is in different OS platform? If not directly after installation you can upgrade the database. using DBUA

Windows 7 64 bit, Access 2010 32 bit, Oracle 10G client 32 bit, Oracle database 10.2.0.4 64 bit

I am trying to connect to an Oracle 10.2.0.4 database from Windows 7 OS - 64 bit using
Access 2010 32 bit and Oracle 32 bit client version 10.2.0.1 installed on PC.
My user requires a 64 bit Windows 7 OS for other needs.
Oracle ODBC driver is 32 bit from Oracle 32 bit client.
In Windows 7 OS 64 bit, ODBC DSN setup software is located in:
C:\Windows\system32\odbcad32.exe for 64 bit drivers - all DSN types setup and
C:\Windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe for 32 bit drivers - USER DSN setup
When I run the ODBC Data Source Administrator, I see the Version number is 6.1.7601.17632
I setup a User DSN using the 32 bit odbcad32.exe with a 32 bit ODBC driver.
Our Oracle TNSnames.ora file has our standard entries which have worked for years
(Windows 7 OS 32 bit and everything 32 bit has connected for years too)
So when I configure an ODBC User DSN and leave all the default settings and press the TEST Connection button, it says it works.
But when I open the existng Access 2010 database (which does connect to Oracle in a Windows 7 32 bit PC environment),
1. I go to Access External Data ribbon tab / Link to the Data Source by creating a linked table / press OK
2. I select the Machine Data source = to the USER DSN name / press OK
3. The Oracle ODBC Driver Connect Window opens with Service Name = USER DSN and User Name and it wants a Password
4. I enter the correct password and I get the following error message:
ODBC call failed
[Oracle][ODBC]{Ora]ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified
(#12154) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed IM006 0
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed (#0)
I have tried a quite a number of fixes:
I have gone into the PC registry and cleaned out most or all off the Oracle client keys and
reinstalled the Oracle 32 bit 10g client. It didn't fix the error.
I read about the Oracle instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.4.zip with ODBC modules but I have Windows 7 64 bit.
Anyone experienced a problem like this and have a fix?

Thank you for your reply.
I did not get to try it because after I entered my question, I did a lot more internet Googling.
I found this small comment:
“There's a known issue where you get a 12154 error message running 32 bit software on a 64 bit OS using client 10201, and
It should be resolved by patching the client to 10204, which you do by applying the 10204 database patch to it.”
I searched around for the 10.2.0.4 patch for 10.2.0.1 Oracle 32 bit client.
When I contacted my Oracle DBA to ask if he had that patch, he said that I should try the 11g 32 bit client on the Win 7 64 bit PC.
We have a 10.2.0.4 Oracle database but he said the 11g client should work fine.
I tried it and it solved the problem!
With so many settings, configurations and permissions involved in ODBC, I am inclined to think that I missed a setting but
it was a bug in the 32 bit client 10.2.0.1.
Solved.

Oracle Database 11.2.0.1.0 CPU hit 100% on Windows 2008 R2 64 bit Hyper-V

Oracle Environment Detail:
Oracle Database Enterprise Edition :11.2.0.1.0 (NON RAC, No failsafe)
O/S:     Windows 2008 R2 64 bit (6.1)
Specifics: Virtual Server using Hyper-V
Memory: 9 GB RAM
Processor: E5540
Specific about the issue:
I have two database instance created on this server with ‘memory_target=3600M’ each.
I am getting into an issue where I find NO activity on database except regular schedule job running using DBMS_SCHEDULER –
•     Database FULL export DAILY schedule time 7 & 7:30 PM accordingly for both instance (takes about 15-20 mins each)
•     Database FULL RMAN DAILY schedule time 9 & 10 PM accordingly for both instance (takes about 35-40 mins each)
This was set up on Feb 25th 2011. Since then we have encounter CPU hit 100% TWICE in this system at around 8:30 PM (SAME TIME). Both database instance exports keep running and never finish. While RMAN schedule job has NO problem. Mostly everything runs every smoothly without any issue.
Replicate the issue:
I am unable to replicate this issue and do not know the cause of the issue.
Work Around:
Oracle services shutdown/Server reboot.
Would anyone know about this issue? Have any information could help? This system will become production soon and want to make sure we have solution for this.
Thanks in advance!

I am finding that CPU hit 100% is very specific to Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 Export Utility (exp) used to take FULL database export. I understand Original Export is desupported from general use as of 11g but available for specific need.
Have anyone faced this issue with 11.2.0.1.0 Export Utility (exp)? Please help.
I have a need to use export utility which gives us migration options.
Thanks!

Which version of Oracle database is certified on Windows 2008 R2 ( 64-bit)

We have a Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 (64-bit) server.
I wanted to know which Oracle database version is 100% certified on the above OS.

Hi Sirini;
10.2.0.5 is supported - see MOS Doc 1061272.1 (Statement of Direction: Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Client (10.2.0.5) with Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2)Correct;
11gR2 is also supported - see MOS Doc 867040.1 (Statement of Direction: Oracle Database 11g Release 2 – Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2)There is a setup on this link:
Oracle Database 11g Release 2
(11.2.0.1.0)
Microsoft Windows (x64) File 1, File 2 (2GB) See All
I am little bit confused for this, as you mention note and also certification matrix says 11gr2 certfied with Win2008-64 bit. But there is no specific setup like win2008-64 bit, there is only Microsoft Windows (x64) setup
By the way for 10gR2 on win 2008 64 bit platform there are 2 setups. Those are:
Oracle Database 10g Release 2
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) for Microsoft Windows Vista x64 and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 x64
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64)
So i had issue for my client and oracle worker support me to use 10.2.0.4 for my issue, not second setup. So for 11gR2 could be work for Microsoft Windows (x64) but i am not sure %100 coz never tried before.
i appreciate, If someone share their experience to make installation 11gR2 on win2008-64 bit wiht Microsoft Windows (x64) setup
All those upper setups can be found at:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
I do not believe 11gR1 is currently certified with Win 2008 R2.Please check below link:

How to install Oracle Database Client 32-bit libraries.

Dear All,
In the document : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/b31765.pdf
it is written "For 64-bit Linux system installations, you must use the Oracle Database Client 32-bit libraries"
how can i install just the libraries from OUI Database 11.2
Is it must to install these libraries first, whatif I install Oracle11.2 64bit client, and then install the OBIEE. Anyhow i need to install OracleDBClient to connect to Oracle server 11.2.

You can't "just install the libraries", you need a full ORacle client installation. The Oracle client can be installed after OBIEE but you must have an Oracle client to connect to an Oracle database via OCI (which is the recomended approach). 64bit client should be fine as long as it has the 32bits libraries. The 10g client does, not sure about the 11g client. Make sure you install the FULL Oracle client, not the Instant Client. The 32bits client libraries are located under lib32, the lib directory is for the 64bits ones. You might need ot re-link them if they were linked correctly during the client installation. But for more information post a message in the Oracle client forum, this is the OBIEE forum.

64 bit SAP to 32 bit External Oracle Database connectivity failing

Dear All,
We are trying to connect to an external Oracle database thru DBCON method. We are able to connect to Oracle server from our IDES server which is a 32 bit server, but when we are trying to connect our development server which is a 64 bit server, the connectivity is failing.
we copied the correct 64 bit *.lib file to the SAP server but still same result. We are getting the error message - Work Process restarted. Session terminated.
the Oracle server we are trying to connect is 32 bit, can this create some problem ?
kindly any one help us in this reagrd.
thanks in advance,

Hi Eric,
thanks for the advice but I am a bit confused as where to execute that sqlplus command/query ?
in the Oracle server or from SAP and what does system/password@DEV means ??
can you elaborate on this please.
here i would like to add that we have connected to the external Oracle server using linked server approach of MS SQL (our SAP default database) and so our connectivity is happening till SQL level i.e. I am able to connect to the Oracle and query it using OpenQuery syntax. the problem is appearing when I am trying to connect from the ABAP level.
kindly suggest as to what can be the solution of this issue.
thanks
Saurabh.
