Oracle on same server with other DB

I'm trying to find a technical reason why it isn't good to have Oracle installed on the same server with SQL Server or some other DB Product. I've seen lots of people say, "Don't do it.", but I haven't seen a technical reason. If someone could point me to an FAQ or another source, I'd appreciate that as well.

AFAIK, adpatch is not aware of how much memory a server has. The number of workers it recommends depends on a set formula - pl see
How Does Adpatch Determine The Number Of Workers To Recommend? [ID 800024.1]     
You are essentially wanting to a trade-off between performance and speed. You could specify 2 workers, but the upgrade will take an unacceptably long time. Allocating a large number of workers will affect performance on the other databases, as you have experienced. You will need to find a sweet spot somewhere in between that is acceptable to you. If you have additional hardware resources, one option is to move the non-EBS databases off this server. I do not think there is a magic bullet to solve your issues.

  • Best Practice for SAP PI installation to share Data Base server with other

    Hi All,
    We are going for PI three tire installation but now I need some best practice document for PI installation should share Data base with other Non-SAP Application or not. I never see SAP PI install on Data base server which has other Application sharing. I do not know what is best practice but I am sure sharing data base server with other non-sap application doesnu2019t look good means not clean architecture, so I need some SAP document for best practice to get it approve from management. If somebody has any document link please let me know.
    With regards

    You should not mix different apps into one database.
    If you have a standard database license provided by SAP, then this is not allowed. See these sap notes for details:
    [581312 - Oracle database: licensing restrictions|https://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=581312]
    [105047 - Support for Oracle functions in the SAP environment|https://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=105047] -> number 23
          23. External data in the SAP database
    Must be covered by an acquired database license (Note 581312).
    Permitted for administration tools and monitoring tools.
    In addition, we do not recommend to use an SAP database with non-SAP software, since this constellation has considerable disadvantages

  • Installing Oracle 8i on server with SQL Server 2000

    We have One Server (HP with: 4 processors XEON, 100 GB HD Raid 5, 8GB RAM). And this server has SQL Server 2000 running with some databases. We NEED to install ORACLE 8i for a product that they use that DB. IS THERE a problem to install and use ORACLE 8i on the same server that has SQL server 2000? Do you know any issue related to this "experience"?

    You CAN run both at the same time. I have done this on a few boxes without issue. MS tells you not to, but I think it's because they don't want you running Oracle. Their comment was 'we don't recommend it.'
    Remember that you will have TCP 1521 tied up with Oracle (by default) and TCP 1433 tied up with SQL Server (by default). If you have installation issues, it's not because you are running two separate DBs. In this case you have a different issue. If you can't run both successfully, simultaneously then you have another issue altogether not related to the software. You should be fine as long as you are not sharing TCP ports.
    Several years ago I was responsible for an HP Netserver LX Pro that ran Oracle RDMBS 7.3.2 and (probably 4.2 or 6.0) SQL Server and had no issues. I have been running both RDBMSs on the same box since even though the boxes have changed - HP/DELL - didn't matter.

  • Can I use Oracle BPEL process manager with other AS and DB

    Can we user oracle bpel process manager with jboss application server and postgresql database.. is it possible..
    and what will be the price.. per licencse when i go to just purchase Oracle BPEL process manager

    MAke sure you have not set ANY environment variable related to Oracle / BEA / Java / LD_library path. Use the following script to unset / set the initial settings:
    #!/bin/sh
    unset ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID ORACLE_TERM
    unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64
    unset CLASSPATH JAVA_HOME

  • Question about same emails with others

    Good afternoon, the other day I walked into
    yahoo.com, because I wondered if
    I had done earlier account there.
    So, when I tried to log in, I chose
    that I can not remember my identity
    and asked me to write the security email
    I would have put in during my
    recording time. Me, I put
    my mainly EMAIL, which is: [email protected]
    After some time I realized that
    some unknown had used my email
    as security email to his account
    on yahoo. Later I checked the
    recent activity in my email in hotmail
    and indicate places where I have not been
    in any of the times I entered my
    account. Finally, there are some messages
    about verifying my identity to an account
    of Apple, which does not come from
    me. My question is whether it is possible
    to have the same email with
    these girls, who have the same name and
    the same first letter on their surname
    as me?? Thank you in advance!

  • Lync 2013 Edge and Reverse proxy on same server with SNI

    Hello
    I cannot find information if it is possible to create a single Lync 2013 Edge server with a Reverse proxy on the same server?
    Would it not be possible to share port 443 with SNI support? That way we could use only one public IP?
    Thanks!

    Sorry, it doesn't work.  Remember that 443 isn't HTTPS for the Edge.  If you went with the single IP model for the edge, 443 would be used for the A/V role which would be STUN/TURN. 
    The edge will always want to listen on 443, it just doesn't work to collocate a reverse proxy.

  • Why BOEXI R2 not same server with  the RDBMS server

    <p>Why BO say</p><p>"We strongly recommend that you do not host the database server on the same machine as a BOE XIR2 cluster node"</p><p> Please giveme  tecnics documents</p>

    I don't know if there are any tech docs available - you could always search the knowledgebase.
    However, the issue is that with both running on the same server, there will be lots of competition for processing time. This means that both BO XI and the database will run noticably slower when they're on the same server than when they're on separate servers.

  • Attempting to restore database to same server with different name.

    I have just restored my production database to an earlier backup to recover from a major application error.
    I now need to reatore a second copy of the database to recover some data which was lost as a result of the restore. The only place I can do this is on the same server.
    I can't use duplicate database because the time I want is before the resetlogs time of the current version.
    I don't think I can use recover using backup controlfile because restoring the control file will have the old database name. Can I restore the control file, rename the database and still use the rman backups of the original database?
    If so how?
    Can use set incarnation to get round the resetlogs issue without affecting the current database?

    Hi
    Database name can be the same ORACLE_SID must be unique on the machine and in specific ORACLE_HOME.
    So effectively you can have 2 databases with the same name but instance names must be unique.

  • Integrating Flash Media Server with other formats

    I would like to create a standard screen/player that can play
    any of the following formats:
    windows media files, all flash files, quick time files, real
    player files.
    So, for example, lets say I want to manipulate the screen to
    be an exact aspect ratio and have the same skin, and exact same
    controls as my flash files, but I don't want to work with Real
    Server or a Windows Media Server to serve these files what is the
    best approach to take ? i.e. a "Standardized" look and feel for all
    the formats listed.
    Where would I be able to get information that will help me
    achieve this ?

    There are two parts to this,
    Flash Media Server application - both client and server side. Check out the video conference app here http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/sample_apps.html.
    The client side app will be a .swf file which you can develop in Flash/Flex.
    Second, you will have to embed this swf file in your asp.net page that will be delivered to browsers. I am not an expert in asp.net but googled a bit and get a feeling it's possible using
    tag.
    Also don't forget to check this link http://renaun.com/blog/2006/10/28/139/ for video conferencing app using flex and FMS.

  • Multiple install of Oracle on same server

    Hi,
    Is there any problem, including license, to create two users on the Linux Box, and install in two diferent directories, making two Oracle running at the same time? I will use an UPU license on this server.
    Is it better to make two Table Spaces?
    Thank you all.

    Just make sure you do not conflict ports, and that environment variables if used do not conflict either

    By default wss_content is pointing to the 80 port. so if i wanna take the backup of this content db and restore it in the same machine as a  different content db name, is this achievable?
    if this is achieved, i want to mount this newly restored content db to a new  web appln.

    Hi Experts,
    I just installed a PI 7.1 system on Solaris10 x86 64bit with Oracle DB. But wrongly I missed two usage types (EP and EP-Core) at the installation.
    So I'am trying to install a second system just to use as portal.
    But when I start sapinst I won't get the screen to select the Usage Types at the second step (Define Parameters).
    thanks in advance

  • Access to Mac OS X Server with other platforms

    Hi there,
    I am running a Mac Mini Server and I want to access my iCal and iAdressbook from outside. This is perfectly working as long as the client is a Mac, an iPhone or an iPad. But what about other ways of accessing it?
    Example: I tried to access my iCal server via Thunderbird with Lightening Add-On, but I didn´t get any connection up to now.
    So my question is: Do anybody can help me here? I am not willing to use any special product (eg Thunderbird), my first step would be to get it working, so access from Windows Systems and also Linux PCs.
    Greets,
    Michael

    Hey,
    You should setup a web server and make it serv ical, contacts, ...
    This is pretty straight forward, there are simple tick boxes that allow you to add these services.
    Go to Server Admin
    Add the service "web"
    in "Sites" select the standard (*) and then in the bottom part click "web services"
    There you have 4 tick boxes: "wiki" "blogs" "calender" and "mail"
    If you tick these and start the service you should be able to http://yourserver.domain.com
    and get a signin window for these services.
    making this available from outside your network is another story.
    First get it to work internally and then worry about the rest
    This is the way to go I think.
    Hope my very basic explanation of the concept points you in the right direction.
    So you should read about the web server and CalDAV as well.
    interesting link for all the technical stuff:

    If you have Instant Client (or something that bundles the Instant Client, such as ZendCore for Oracle), in your path on Windows, then you will get problems, such as
    1) The install spinning
    2) SQLPlus crashing when launched
    The offending DLL is called oraociei10.dll
    Check to see if you have this in your environment. Search will do this for you. If you do, check to make sure that the corresponding directory is not in your path. if it is, then the fix is to remove the offending directory from your path.
