Oracle Primavera P6 v7 Support

Does anyone know if Oracle will continue to provide support on P6 v7? As I heard that in the coming future, they will cease support on P6 version 7. Thanks.
I really need to know before I do any upgrade on the product.

Refer to Lifetime Support Policy | Oracle Support | Oracle
This indicates Sustaining Support as "Maximizes your investment protection by providing maintenance for as long as you use your Oracle software. Features include access to Oracle online support tools, upgrade rights, pre-existing fixes and assistance from technical support experts."
So you should get support for your version of P6 and upgrade rights.

OPSIG Mission:
The Oracle Primavera SIG will provide a forum of open discussion and education of Oracle products, applications and related issues associated with the Primavera Suite of Products.

Yes it is. The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. As you correctly state the ANSI standards weren't around when it was initially designed, so the statement is perfectly correct. ;)Ok, in one sense it may be correct but it is a completely misleading statement. Not sure why you think it's misleading.Because there was no ANSI standard, so making it sound like a design choice The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. would suggest to most readers that there was a standard to be compliant to.
Like saying Ford originally did not design their cars to incorporate safety features such as ABS, seat belts and air bags.
The OP asked "why oracle is having different syntaxes for joins than ANSI syntaxes ?" and the answer is that Oracle wasn't initially designed with ANSI compliance, so it has it's old non-ANSI syntax,As shown above, the old syntax was ANSI compliant at the time and to call it non-ANSI is either incorrect or misleading dependent on your point of view.
and since ANSI syntax became the standard it now supports that. And since ANSI switched to a new standard, Oracle had to implement the new standard as well as the previous ANSI standard would be more accurate in my opinion.
Nothing misleading as far as I'm aware in that.I find the whole discussion about ANSI and Oracle's supposed non-compliance, reads like it was Oracle's choice to deviate from the standards, when it was ANSI's bullheaded decisions to pointlessly change standards that left Oracle and other vendors out of compliance, and that was a decision made solely by ANSI.
This is probably the reason ANSI no longer produces SQL standards, the endless syntax fiddling would eventually have made forward left under outer joins a reality.

Oracle Primavera P6 Scripting using Openscript

Hi,
We were able to successfully record the Oracle Primavera application using OATS - Openscript tool. However, some request contains "OracleBinary" data which seems to be in a encoded format.
We need to know how to convert this to readable format so that we can parameterize some value that sent in the http.post request.
For example,
The below request is from openscript tool,

Whether Oracle 8.1.6 Supports Windows 2003 Server/Windows 2000 Adv. Server

Dear All,
Whether Oracle 8.1.6 Supports Windows 2003 Server/Windows 2000 Adv. Server.
I tried it in windows 2003 server but i couldn't. Atlease tell me wheather it support windows 2000 adv. server. This is my first dba job.
Under Doc ID: 66397.1 saying Oracle 8.1.6 Not Support Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition.
Under Doc ID: 77627.1 saying Oracle 8.1.6 Supports Windows 2000 Support.
Please help me out urgently.

Since you have access to Metalink, you could be looking at the Certify tab to find this information. But, the answer is that 8.1.6 is no longer supported by Oracle. However, you should be able to install it on Win 2000 advanced server. You just can't get any support for it.
The earliest version of db supported on Win 2003 was either 9.0 or 9.2, but 9.0 is desupported now as well.

How to expose a Delegate feature of BPM workspace to oracle primavera

Hi All,
We have Oracle primavera which is getting used for Project portfolio management and we are using BPM workflows to manage it. All the Human task pages are designed on ADF which can be accessed directly from Oracle Primavera application by users.
Now we want to implement a delegate feature of oracle BPM but as per my understanding that feature we can use through Oracle BPM workspace>> task actions list. But as all the tasks and UI's user is accessing using Primavera application hence is there any way that this delegate feature of oracle BPM workspace can be exposed to primavera application so that user can use this feature of BPM workspace in oracle primavera?
Please help me whether this thing is possible or not and if yes then how to go about it.
Thanks
RJ

I wrote a blog about how to use a database driven LOV to populate the dropdown for a BPM variable a while back. Go to Using a Database Driven List of Values to Populate a BPM Variable | AVIO Consulting.

Oracle RAC DIF/DIX support

Does Oracle RAC database support DIF/DIX for data integrity? I am assuming this should be supported with the use of UEK2/3 kernel. Thanks.

Considering Oracle wrote DIF/DIX support for Linux, yes it does. It requires the use of ASMlib as well.
See Preventing Silent Data Corruption in Oracle Linux for more information.

2 - There are know issue running Oracle in a Hyper-V child partition/virtualized partition ?
2 - There are know issue about curruption of datafile using snapshoting,
Thanks in advance.

Hello.
Can anybody explain, how should I understand this "Certification Information" from Oracle metalink?
==Quote ==
"Oracle Database is certified with the following Windows Server 2008 editions:
* Windows Server 2008 Standard (x86 and x64)
Oracle Database does not support Hyper-V and Server Core in Windows Server 2008.
==/Quote==
Does it mean that this OS is supported, but only if it does not run in Hyper-v configuration?
Thanks for your advice.

Oracle Primavera P6 Professional Attached Text Linked Directly to An Activity Delete Problem

Hi All,
We have a strange situation:
In one instance of Oracle Primavera P6 Professional (8) we have Attached Text which is Linked Directly (i.e. dependent) to an Activity. I am unsure how this was achieved, because in another instance of Oracle Primavera P6 Professional (8) we have Attached Text which is NOT Linked Directly (i.e. independent) to an Activity; i.e. the situation is not duplicated in all instances of Oracle Primavera P6 Professional (8). Both instances are standalone on separate PCs.
The problem is when we want to Delete attached text which no longer applies (e.g. last month it was valid, but this month, we no longer want to display the attached text); in the first instance, when we select the attached text and click on the DELETE key, we get a prompt to delete the "linked" activity! However we do NOT want to delete the activity, we only want to delete the attached text. In the second instance we have no such problem and we can deleted the attached text as desired.
For the first instance we have a workaround which is to double click the attached text and remove the text, so all that remains is a blank attached text "box", then saving the layout, but this is not ideal/desired; we want to delete the attached text.
Does anyone have any ideas?
What should we be looking at with regards to Settings/Options, etc.
With Thanks in Advance, and Best Regards, Michael

Excellent Blog. Thank You
Small clarification on Step **6) Oracle Home Directory, ...a) Resize the Root Partition**
Ubuntu 11.10 has Gparted available as a Ubuntu software download, DONT use that while trying the above step, instead download the ISO file from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable/ gparted-live-0.12.0-5.iso (124.6 MB)
Burn that ISO file on a Blank DVD, reboot the Ubuntu , during startup select Boot from DVD Option if not already selected. this will take to Boot Menu Options of Gparted Live then select the first menu option, and this allows to do further action such as Re-sizing .
and once you have chosen and executed step a) . do NOT run step b) also that is "Setup External Storage"
I hope this minor clarification can avoid some confusion

any Idea ?You'll probably get help if the issue is known, you won't get fixes and backports, you probably won't get help on unknown issues and you won't get any more CPU updates for your production system.
