Oracle SID Configuration

I have a production database running on Oracle 10G with single SID. I was asked to create another SID of the same production DB with Readonly mode which will be accessed from a remote location.
How will I configure this ?? Is this what called RAC ??
Any help/advice will be appreciated.

So as active dataguard is not in 10g,according to your initial question, you do not need it.
Except rman duplicate , Can these following options, do serve my purpose ??
-- Creating a physical standby database by dataguard and use it..physical standby database is offline and constantly synchronized by DataGuard with changes that transferred from the original DB.
I understand you do not need secondary DB to be in sync with the primary one.
So it is not for you.
-- Enabling RAC on the existing and create one node at the remote location ..Oh, no. RAC is not for this.
Believe, RMAN DB duplication is a most simple and suitable thing for your issue.

DRDA is installed just on the Oracle side?

After reading this I still dont get it...
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/gateways.102/b16217/intro.htm#i3621
This documentation does not get to the point at all. It is not written at a level for people who have never installed a Transparent Gateway...
So, If I install the DRDA type Transparent Gateway I'm hoping I only have to put software on the Oracle side - my side? Not the DB2 side? I saw via someone else's post where during DRDA setup a package is created on DB2 side by issuing commands on the Oracle side?
If this is true, which I hope it is, why and what benefit is obtained by installing the other type of gateway Transparent Gateway for DB2 (TD4DB2) which requires installation of software on both sides - I think?
I would like to only have to install software on the Oracle side since the DB2 machine is not owned by us and all we will have is a user account on the DB2 side.
Give me few quick pointers please.. Thanks...

The DRDA Gateway software is only installed on the the Oracle server machine (or a 3rd machine).
There are several notes on Metalink "How to setup TG4DRDA" which explain in detail WHAT steps are required to configure the gateway.
Regarding the Bind package: at the Db2 database the 2PC table must be created and then use SQL*Plus to bind a package at the Db2 side.
This is mandatory for the DRDA gateway, but I want to make it clear again: NO software is installed on the DB2 machine.
So the difference between the TG4DB2/400 and TG4DRDA is the location of the software.
TG4DRDA is installed on Unix or Windows platforms, commonly in the Oracle database home whereas TG4DB2/400 is installed on the AS400 machine.

Getting a side by side configuration error after installing obiee 10.1.3.4.

Hi, I have installed obiee 10.1.3.4.2 version over my windows 7 desktop. After installation, when tried with opening the admin tool, i'm getting a side by side configuration error. Please help what to do to overcome this

Go through the Doc id 1067138.1 at Metalink below is the extract.
The following procedure must be done by a UNIX administrator or by an Oracle BI Administrator with sufficient privileges.
To download Oracle BI installation files under UNIX:
   1. Log in as the user who is to run the Oracle BI processes.
   2. Insert the Oracle Business Intelligence infrastructure installation DVD.
   3. Change to the directory where the installation DVD is mounted (or change directory to the downloaded software).
   4. Download the Oracle BI files by using FTP to copy them to the desired server and directory.
      Note: Make sure to FTP all the files in binary mode, including license.xml.
   5. After the files are downloaded, check that the files in the top level directory, such as setup.sh, have execute permissions.
      execute the command: ls -la or ls -ltr
      Confirm that the files have permissions resembling these:
      -rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle dba 6395 Aug 9 22:11 license.xml

BKI0062E: The input file /oracle/SID/sapbackup/.file.lst is not valid.

Hi all,
   It has the following platform: SAP ECC6 in AIX 6.1 with Oracle Database
My question is: When I run a online backup from DB13 with util_file I have this error message :
BKI0062E: The input file /oracle/SID/sapbackup/.file.lst is not valid.
Knowing when I launch from the standard profile on Disk initSID.sap it works without problem
When we test manually with oraSID it works but by SIDadm its not work
Then you can mention or in configuration files BACKINT both users oraSID & SIDadm have rights to use
Many Thanks

As you see - your br*tools are more than two years old, many many errors have been fixed since. I would install the latest tools and try if the error is still there. You can even do that when the system is running.

Oracle SID & SERVICE_NAME

What is the difference between Oracle SID & SERVICE_NAME ?
and which one is better to use in tnsnames.ora and why ?

When you use the names resolution service TNSNAMES, you always use both a service name and a SID in each entry of the client's TNSNAMES.ORA file. The SID is the actual name of an instance as recorded in the INSTANCE_NAME column of the instance's V$INSTANCE view and as specified in the instance's entry in the server's LISTENER.ORA file. The service name is an alias for the instance that is found only in the client's TNSNAMES.ORA file. Here is an example of a series of entries in a client's TNSNAMES.ORA file for three databases on three servers all having the same SID:DEVDB.WORLD =
(DESCRIPTION =
   (ADDRESS =
      (PROTOCOL = TCP)
      (PORT = 1521)
      (HOST = DEVSVR.OURCOMPANY.COM)
   (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = OURSID))
TESTDB.WORLD =
(DESCRIPTION =
   (ADDRESS =
      (PROTOCOL = TCP)
      (PORT = 1521)
      (HOST = TESTSVR.OURCOMPANY.COM)
   (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = OURSID))
PRODDB.WORLD =
(DESCRIPTION =
   (ADDRESS =
      (PROTOCOL = TCP)
      (PORT = 1521)
      (HOST = PRODSVR.OURCOMPANY.COM)
   (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = OURSID))
)The SID is OURSID and is the same for each of these databases, but each resides on a separate host--DEVSVR, TESTSVR, and PRODSVR. The service names are DEVDB.WORLD, TESTDB.WORLD, and PRODDB.WORLD, and each is an alias for a database on a particular server. The SIDs of all three databases are the same, however. If the server configurations are identical, it is possible to use copies of OURSID from PRODSVR in TESTSVR and DEVSVR without making any control file changes. Although the service name may be the same as the SID, it needn't be.
We have hundreds of databases in our enterprise, and we make extensive use of the aliasing capability of the TNSNAMES.ORA entries.
Kind regards,
Russ

Oracle 10g2 installation stucks at Oracle Database Configuration Assistant

Hi,
I was trying to install Oracle 10g2 on a remote server. The linux version is FC5. The installation stoped at Oracle Database Configuration Assistant. How can I fix it?
Thanks a lot
Lu

Thanks for the reply. The details are as follows. I was trying to install Oracle Database 10g Release 2(10.2.0.1) on Linux Fedora Core 5. So I downloaded 10201_database_linux32.zip. The cksum was correct. I completely followed the steps in this article: http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/OracleDB10gR2InstallationOnFedora5.php
Everything was fine until it got to Oracle Database Configuration Assistant. It hung indefinitely without moving. The message on the screening was:
Output generated from configuration assistant "Oracle Database Configuration Assistant":
Command = /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/dbca -progress_only -createDatabase -templateName General_Purpose.dbc -gdbName csci585.usc.edu -sid csci585 -sysPassword 051e421f15d524e2fb763a340793d33c1c594d87e6c0773f71 -systemPassword 05f8ff2a15958d237280c14aa0cfc26a7e23ffc20d70c6e080 -sysmanPassword 0558a50d15b50780caf748645c350d92581789988d719ede4b -dbsnmpPassword 05ca6bea1475cdbb6780d96cc4fb00a6ad0921b9eaf66a01dd -emConfiguration LOCAL -datafileJarLocation /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/assistants/dbca/templates -datafileDestination /u01/app/oracle/oradata/ -responseFile NO_VALUE -characterset WE8ISO8859P1 -obfuscatedPasswords true -sampleSchema false -oratabLocation /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/install/oratab -recoveryAreaDestination NO_VALUE
Actually, at the beginning It stucked at Oracle Net Configuration Assistant. I searched the Internet and found an article saying "If scp and ssh are not in the path /usr/local/bin, then create a symbolic link in /usr/local/bin to the location where scp and ssh are found", I did that and it passed Oracle Net Configuration Assistant, but then stopped at the next step Oracle Database Configuration.
One thing I think is helpful to know is that the server was previously installed with Oracle10g1. It worked for three years as the server for the students doing projects in a database class. But recently the JDBC to spatial database connection had some problem so we decided to install Oracle10g2. We deinstalled the previous Oracle10g1 with OUI but we are not sure if the deinstallation is clean and complete.
Any help will be highly appreciated!

Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID

Hi,
I had Oracle 9idatabase installed on my system.I had to reinstall the Windows 2000 operating system on my computer. I used the Oracle 9i cd to deinstall evrything ,but when i try reinstalling it, i specify 'Oracle 9i' as SID and i get the message 'Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID'.
What do i do? Can anyone guide me?
Thanks in advance

1/ Could you tell me more about Windows 2000 OS was installed clearly or repaired? If the Windows 2000 OS was repaired, then I think that, you should reinstall only Oracle Database (by Database Configure Assitant or Oracle Universal Installer) but not completely install full of Oracle Server.
2/ I guessed your DB was Development Database, not Production Database. So, when you reinstall your Database, you might save it as template (structure). Good luck!

Oracle Split Configuration - LinuxRH 4

Hi, Oracle Gurus,
We have purchased sun boxes with AMD64 and used them in Oracle Applications, a bunch of applications. The current solution is use 32bits version on Application tiers, that caused Database tier in 32 bits too. A waste of resources, at least we have 4CPU + 8G and 4G can be used only.
Also 64 versions are supposed to be stable and powerful than 32 versions, as mentioned by Oracle.
Now the Oracle Split Configuration came out since last June, but till now, it is under evaluation and test, no updated.
My questions are:
Is there someone who are using Oracle split configuration? and how do you like it? is there some issues, on either application or database side? Where is Oracle Develoment team, in west coast or east coast?
Your reply will be appreciated very much.
Hank

I haven't done it but the metalink certify page for ebusiness says the following...

Question about an Oracle SID

I'm a bit confused about what a SID is. I understand that it represents a Database instance. However, as I create my database for the first time, I'm asking myself if I really understand what a SID is?
My impression of a SID is a database instance that can contain/manage serveral databases. Is that correct?
However, I wonder if I'm being miss lead by my thinking. During the database creation process it appears that there is a one-to-one relationship between a database and a SID. Meaning that a SID and database are a unique pair and that a one-to-one relationship exist only.
That being the case when it comes the environment variable for "Oracle_SID" does it support having multiple SID's. What is the maximum number of SID that it can support? When connecting to a database in Oracle do I have to supply both the SID and global database name to make a connection? I plan to connect to my databases using both Java and C++.
Thanks

Thanks for you help. However, My question is about
the "Oracle_SID" environment variable. I fully
understand that a SID helps identify resources to
manage a database. However, a server/machine can
have any number of database residing on the
server/machine.
The installation instructions talk about the
environment variables for a machine with the
"Oracle_SID being one of those variables. Based on
what you are telling me a server/machine can have
only 1/one database residing on it based on the fact
that the "Oracle_SID" environment variable can only
accomodate one/1 SID. NO. That is NOT what I said. I said - One SID will equate to One database instance.
You can have any number of SIDs.
BUT you set the SID as an environment variable to tell the software which instance to you wish to connect. ORACLE_SID can only be set to one value. That represents the database instance to which you are about to connect. A tool such as SQLPlus supports only one connection to one instance at a time.
>
Is the "Oracle_SID" environment variable important
when it comes to connecting to a database remotely?Not really. The key is the SERVICE_NAME which is used to tell the LISTENER which SERVICE you want to use.
By default, there is one service that has the same name as the instance's SID.
There is a connection description file, called TNSNAMES.ORA. That file is used the same as /etc/hosts in *nix - pass in an alias and get a connection description - IP in the case of HOSTS; machine, listener port and 'instance information' in the case of TNSNAMES.ORA
The typical connection to an instance is something like
sqlplus hans/test@ORCL
The ORCL is the alias to look up in the TNSNAMES.ORA (or other lookup technique - equivalent to DNS). The client looks up the 3 pieces of information, sends a request to the listener which is (hopefully) listening on the specified port on the indicated machine. It then uses the 'instance information' to ask the database instance for a thread or process.
Oracle8 and older used ORACLE_SID as the 'instance information'
Oracle8i and newer uses SERVICE_NAME as the 'instance information'.
Some Newbie DBAs equate SERVICE_NAME to ORACLE_SID, because one of the services has the same name as the SID. However, one can have up to 64 SERVICES managed by a single instance.
Some Experienced DBAs equate SERVICE_NAME to ORACLE_SID, because they have not spent time in the documentation to understand the difference between SERVICE_NAME and SID. As a result, they generally do not 'get it' when it comes to resource management or instance consolidation.

If I'm managing a database at the server and the
server has multiple database residing on it, how do I
define a SID for each database using the "Oracle_SID"
environment variable?If on LINUX, using bash, you simply
export ORACLE_SID=abc
or use the oraenv script to set the SID and all the other environment variables based on the SID.I give a description and example below.
>
I'm just not clear about the relationship between the
"Oracle_SID" environment variable and access a
database when logged onto the database
server/machine.Say I have 2 databases, called 'ORCL' and 'TEST', each with a user (and schema) called 'hans'. Both are down. I want them both up. Therefore I want to start 2 instances.The pattern, on Linux (it's subtly different on Windows) is
# set the environment to start ORCL
. oraenv
ORCL
# or
export ORACLE_SID=ORCL
export ORACLE_HOME=some-directory-path-to-the-ORCL-database's-software
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
# use the tools to start the database
sqlplus / as sysdba # note that I did not specify SID ... that was given above
startup
exit
# at this point ORCL database, and all the schemas in the ORCL database, are available
# from anywhere in the network, or on the local machine, I can:
sqlplus hans/password@ORCL
select * from dual;
exit
# but TEST is not up and
sqlplus hans/password@TEST
# will fail with a 'database not available' type of message
# now set up to start test. Use oraenv OR do it manually
export ORACLE_SID=TEST
export ORACLE_HOME=the-path-to-the-TEST-database's-software-which-could-be-the-same
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
# and use the tools to start the database
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup
exit
# note that I did not specify SID ... that was given above and tells SQLPLUS to establish a connect to the
# instance called TEST. SQLPlus has special powers in the "as sysdba" mode - it can execute the
# startup process.
# NOW the TEST and the ORCL databases are available through the TEST and ORCL instances
sqlplus hans/password@TEST
select * from dual;
connect hans/password@ORCL
select * from dual;
exit>
I understand that when using the Enterprise Manager I
have to specify the SID and database name but, does
the environment variable "Oracle_SID" have to reflect
a SID for each database that is present on the
server/machine.
The SID tells the system
1) which shared memory segment to use - if we are on the server
2) which instance to connect to over the network, because the SID is the same as the default SERVICE
In Enterprise Manager Database Control, the entry point for the configuration files is a special directory under the ORACLE_HOME that consists of the machine name and the SID. The purpose of setting the ORACLE_SID in this case is to tell the database control which directory to use to find the EM configuration files for that database and instance.
No matter which way you slice it:
1) an Oracle SID is used to point to the configuration information for one database and it's related instance;
2) an Oracle SID is really only meaningful on the machine where the instance is to run;
3) an Oracle SID environment variable can only contain the value for one SID if it is to be intepreted by Oracle programs;
4) an Oracle SID plays no significant part in establishing the connection for an appication;
5) an Oracle SID MAY be used as input to environment-setting programs that make it easier to get the right environment for an application;
6) an Oracle SID is NO LONGER the correct way to set up the TNSNAMES.ORA file to establish a connection.
