Oracle Startup & SCN Concept in Depth

I have few questions about Oracle SCN.
I will taking few different scenario.
( Note- The following condtions true in all cases.
(a)- No Recovery Catalog
(b)- Backup and Recovery with RMAN) )
Different Cases
Case 1. Oracle Instance shutdown with command
SQL > Shutdown immediate
Case 2. Oracle Instance shutdown with command
SQL > SHUTDOWN ABORT
Case 3.Oracle Datafile (system.dbf) file deleted with operating System Command
# rm -rf system01.dbf
SQL > SHUTDOWN ABORT
The following conditions true in Case3.
(a) Database is running in ARCHIVELOG Mode.
(b) No loss on Control File and Online Redo Log Files.
Case 4. All the Oracle Control File deleted with Operating System Command.
# rm -rf *.ctl
SQL > SHUTDOWN ABORT
The following conditions true in Case4.
(a) Database is running in ARCHIVELOG Mode.
(b) No loss on datafile File and Online Redo Log Files.
Case 5. All the Oracle Control File & System dbf deleted with Operating System Command.
# rm -rf *.ctl
# rm -rf system01.dbf
SQL > SHUTDOWN ABORT
The following conditions true in Case5.
(a) Database is running in ARCHIVELOG Mode.
(b) No loss on Online Redo Log Files.
Case 6. All the Oracle Control File & Online Redo Log File deleted with Operating System Command.
# rm -rf *.ctl
# rm -rf *.log
SQL > SHUTDOWN ABORT
The following conditions true in Case5.
(a) Database is running in ARCHIVELOG Mode.
(b) No loss on datafile Files.
Question-
A> Let me know How Oracle SCN concept will work in above mentioned scenario ?
B> How SCN Synronization will happen ?
C> How Oracle Database will understand what file Needs Restoration and Recovery ?
D> What the meaning of SCN Synronization ? If Database synronize Control File SCN number with DBF File SCN then how it will work when we loose Control File.

Srinivas,
Thanks for Reply,
Actually, What i am feeling is till the time Control file is available, There is no issue in Backup and Recovery. Its very simple to understand Oracle will take all the information from Control File and Corresponding do all backup and Recovery.
My Main confusion start with rm -rf *.ctl (delete all existing Control File).
Most of the Control File documents discuss about major component for ex. Datafile Info, Redo File Info etc. The information which we can get from control file Dump.
But none discussed about Oracle Complete Control File Architecture.
I read following good documents about Control File architecture
a) http://esemrick.blogspot.com/2006/02/backup-control-files-are-they-special.html
b) http://www.ixora.com.au/notes/controlfile_structure.htm
But still not comfortable with Oracle Control File in depth architecture.
If you can share some Control file in depth documents, It will solve my problem.
Thanks in advance.

Running Oracle startup or shutdown bat file from Java code

I have two bat files for the startup and shutdown of Oracle instance which works fine from the command prompt. But my requirement is to run it through a Java program. Please reply with full Java code. Also mention how I would get the status of the bat files that it is successfully executed or not and if not what is the error.

Your program is working fine, but there is another problem. What's happening now is I have to open the Login screen after the startup of oracle server is complete, but the next line of my program after Runtime.exec is the LoginScreen.show which immediately shows the login screen after executing Runtime.exec and when I am giving the login name and password and press enter, it shows Oracle not available exception, because the startup process is still in progress. I want to stop the execution of my next line of code until and unless my process of Oracle startup is complete.

Here's a solution to Oracle Startup / Shutdown on RH6

I had a hard time getting Red Hat 6.0 to startup and shutdown
Oracle properly. Red Hat's slick rc scripts look cool, but hide
the problem unless you do some serious reading.
This script still isn't perfect, mainly because it can't
shutdown if oracle users are still logged in. This is a problem
with the dbshut scripts. I try to avoid hacking Oracle's bin
directory, but if you really want to go down, change the
shutdown lines to shutdown immediate. Oracle, please provide an
option to dbshut to fix this! :-)
My changes to the book version fix the following:
1. It creates a file /var/log/dbora to log the startup output to
give you some visibility after the fact.
2. Creating the /var/lock/subsys/dbora file after startup makes
the shutdown work. Otherwise rc won't even try. Deleting it
makes changes between run levels work right.
3. The startup is NOT backgrounded so that if you are watching
it boot you can at least gauge the time it takes before the
startup.
4. It starts the listener too.
5. It checks the log file for startup errors and makes the
screen say FAILED in red if it sees any errors.
5. It allows dbshut some time to finish before unmounting. My
dual xenon machine goes down do fast dbshut wouldn't finish
downing both of my sids.
# dbora -start/stop Oracle
#action
ORA_HOME=/home/oracle;export ORA_HOME
ORA_OWNER=oracle;export ORA_OWNER
if [ ! -f $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart -o ! -d $ORA_HOME ]
then
echo "Oracle startup: cannot start"
exit
fi
case "$1" in
'start')
su - $ORA_OWNER -c "$ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart" >
/var/log/dbora.log
su - $ORA_OWNER -c "$ORA_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start" >>

'stop')
su - $ORA_OWNER -c $ORA_HOME/bin/dbshut &
sleep 15
rm -f /var/lock/subsys/dbora
esac
if egrep -q "ORA-" /var/log/dbora.log; then
exit -1
else
exit 0

Note that the links prescribed by the book are also incorrect.
Linux's rc levels do NOT run sequentially. Therefore, you need a
start and stop on the same level. If you want to save some RAM
on the serve by not running X, you'll want level 4 scripts and
level 5 scripts. So, Create all these links (as ROOT).
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc4.d/K10dbora
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc4.d/S99dbora
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/K10dbora
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S99dbora
To be really safe also create these links. This way there is no
escaping a proper oracle shutdown.
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K10dbora
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K10dbora

It isn't necessary to create the symlinks for the rc scripts
manually--that's what the "chkconfig" command is for.

Oracle startup issue

Hi All,
I have oracle 9i Enterprise Edition 9.2.0.8.0 installed on server.
I have change large pool size and shared pool size parameters in init.ora file and i have shutdown the database using shutdown immediate.
I have restarted the server and since then when i try to stratup the database i am getting the error as
ORA-24324: service handle not initialized
ORA-01041: internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist.
Can anyone help on this?
Thanks,
Ravi

HA Oracle startup/shutdown question

Environment:
2 Sunfire V890's running solaris 2.9 and SC3.1U4
Hello All,
I am having a problem with oracle startup and shutdown in my cluster. In order to get oracle to startup after a failover, shutdown what have you, I need to implement the following procedure as a pre/post oracle startup operation/script. Can anyone tell me if there is a place or hook in the HAOracle agent where I can add my own operation? I would rather avoid having to write a GDS agent in order to do this, if it is at all possilble.
Thanks,
George Cebulka
PS
Please Note: (This is a DBA thing, not mine!)
************** Begin *********************
After a failover or startup we need following to avoid the �authentication error�
1. remove the sqlnet.ora soft link from $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
1. rm /global/oracle/oracledb/oraclev10201/network/admin/sqlnet.ora
2. Create a new soft link to sqlnet.ora in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin as following
1. ln �s /global/pitt/dba/network/net8/sqlnet.ora /global/oracle/oracledb/oraclev10201/network/admin/sqlnet.ora
3. startup the database and listeners (using cluster database).
4. Now database is up and running and we need to turn on radius authentication for which we need this post stuff
5. Remove the sqlnet.ora link
1. rm /global/oracle/oracledb/oraclev10201/network/admin/sqlnet.ora
6. Create a new soft link to replace sqlnet.ora with radius sqlnet.ora
1. ln �s /global/pitt/dba/network/net8/sqlnet.ora.radius /global/oracle/oracledb/oraclev10201/network/admin/sqlnet.ora
*************** End ******************

You could also try the following:
Create two GDS agents, where you need to include the steps to disable the pmf action script, which I describe in a blog at
http://blogs.sun.com/TF/entry/disabling_pmf_action_script_with .
This is needed since your scripts will not leave a process running for PMF.
1. GDS resource (for this example I call it ora-prestart-rs):
Start_command: It will do the steps to implement the original sqlnet.ora file + the steps from the blog
Probe_command: /bin/true
Stop_command: not needed
2. GDS resource (for this example I call it ora-poststart-rs):
Start_command: It will do the steps to setup the link for the radius sqlnet.ora file + the steps from the blog
Probe_command: /bin/true
Stop_command: It will do the steps to re-implement the original sqlnet.ora file
Then you create the following resource dependencies (here I assume the name for the SUNW.oracle_server resource is ora-rs):
scrgadm -c -j ora-rs -y Resource_dependencies=ora-prestart-rs
scrgadm -c -j ora-poststart-rs -y Resource_dependencies=server-dwdd-rs
Maybe you need to setup the same dependencies to include the SUNW.oracle_listerner resource. You did not mention which of those is facing problems.
Of course, I never tried this. But this would enable you to use the HA Oracle agent unchanged.

Thorsten
PS: I forgot to also mention that you need to set the Restart_type extension property for the SUNW.oracle_server resource to RESOURCE_GROUP_RESTART:
scrgadm -c -j ora-rs -y Restart_type=RESOURCE_GROUP_RESTART
That way a triggered restart by ora-rs will allways force the RG to go through stop/start - and only then the link will get set back to the sqlnet.ora the SUNW.oracle_server needs to work correctly.
Note again - this is theory and needs proper testing.

Regarding Oracle Startup command

Hello All,
Whenever we execute the startup command in sqlplus ::
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 252776588 bytes
Fixed Size 450700 bytes
Variable Size 218103808 bytes
Database Buffers 33554432 bytes
Redo Buffers 667648 bytes
Database mounted.
Database opened.
SQL>
Please elaborate what Fixed Size and Variable size contains??
I mean what components come under Fixed and Variable size?
Thanks !!
Regards,
Avadhut

Fixed portion
The size of the fixed portion is constant for a release and a plattform of Oracle, that is, it cannot be changed through any means such as altering the initialization parameters
Variable portion
The variable portion is called variable because its size (measured in bytes) can be changed. The variable portion consists of:
large pool (optional)
Provides working space for rman (although rman will also work without large pool).
Shared pool The shared pool is used for objects that are shared among all users. For example: table definitions, PL/SQL definitions, cursors and so on.

Oracle forms Drafting concept

Sir, In oracle forms can i use draft concept where as data goes to temporary table then after when i save it will go to more then one permanent table . any one can help me on this regards
I am using oracle 10gforms.

Hello,
do you want to store the data across sessions? like: User edits data, saves them temporarily, can edit them when he comes back and they will be stored permanently sometimes later.
If they are stored permanently or deleted in the same session, then there is IMHO no need for a temporary table. You post them to the db without commit and when the user decides what to do, then you simply commit or rollback.
Regards
Marcus

PerfMon reporting dramatic disk access time increase on Oracle startup

Hi,
My oracle 10g (10.2.0.4) database is hosted on a windows 2003 server.
The datafiles are stored on a RAID1 disk array, on a dedicated partition : currently 30 gigs free out of 180, wich should not be a concern unless i'm wrong, because the datafiles were created as 10 Go files with no autogrowth. I add a new datafile whenever i need more room for my tables (alerts when 80% used).
Since 2 days i experience a dramatic performance loss :
The EM console reports nothing special (no alarms related to storage) apart from the need for more paginated memory.
I issue a reorg when the segmentation advisor suggests it.
My optimizer statistics are calculated by the default scheduled job.
The weird thing I noticed is that as soon as I start the database, there's a huge increase in disk activity even though no query at all is submitted to the database.
PerfMon reports Current Disk Queue Length > 1000 and disk access time > 3000 ms
CPU is 2% activity on the 4-cpus server.
I have plenty of spare memory (currently 3 Go used out of 16).
This is only a dev server for ETL processes, it has very few concurrent connections.
Any suggestions welcome.

According to oracle recommendation Av Rd(ms) shouldn't be greater then 20, if its goes over 20 then its considered to be an issue with IO subsystem. But as its seen that in your case its overshooting.
Now the question from my side
Have done any configuration changes?
I would suggest you to revert these changes asap and contact storage admin guys...
Hope this helps

Automated Oracle Startup & Shutdown

I am trying to get make my Oracle database shutdown and startup
automatically at boot, but am having a hard time getting this to
work properly. I have created a file in /etc/rc.d/init.d called
dbora:
case "$1" in
'start')
su - oracle -c $ORACLE_BASE/admin/bin/dbstart.sh &
'stop')
su - oracle -c $ORACLE_BASE/admin/bin/dbshut.sh &
esac
I also created the following links in EVERY (out of frustration)
/etc/rc.d/rc#.d directory:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Jul 1 10:12 S99dbora -
/etc/rc.d/init.d/dboralrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Jul 1 10:12 K30dbora -
/etc/rc.d/init.d/dboraThe problem does not really appear to be linked to the actual
database shutdown or startup, but rather with LINUX. I have
replaced the contents of dbstart.sh & dbshut.sh with a simple
echo redirect to file to prove this out. Specifically, here is
what is happening:
* Running "dbora start" or "dbora stop" manually always works.
* Neither "dbora start" or "dbora stop" work when booting or
switching runlevels, although the message STARTING DBORA does
scroll past the console.
I have several people look at this here and no one can figure
out why this isn't working. Can you assist?

Peter,
Normally the problem here is that the environment is not set, or
is not being set correctly OR that things that Oracle needs to be
available have already been killed (lower run level) or have not
been started (higher run level).
Check that the environment is OK when the dbora script is run and
check that your scripts are called in the right order of things
when moving between run levels.
Regards,
Mark

Oracle startup/shutdown triggers

Hi,
I have a scenerion appreciated the inputs/suggestions.
We have 750 db's from oracle 8i to 11g .
i will take one db as test db and i will create a table in this db and from all db's a trigger has to fire whenever database is down or up and update this test table in test db.
may be test table structure contains hostname, db name , db status(1 for down, 0 for up), timestamp
Thanks in advance .
Prakash

Hi thanks for all the inputs.
We use OEM grid still we want this project to execute.
The steps we need to do is .
1.     Determine how/if we can create a system-level trigger on all of our Oracle databases (we currently have versions as low as 8.1.7 and up to 11.2).
2.     The trigger will update a remote table before a shutdown or after a startup.
3.     The remote database (which we will use for testing) is test.
4.     The table to be updated is test.DB_STATUS
SQL> desc p201710.db_status
Name Null? Type
SERVER_NAME VARCHAR2(50)
DB_NAME VARCHAR2(50)
DB_STATUS CHAR(1)  '1' = down, '0' = up
STATUS_TS DATE
5.     Create a dynamic link at the time the trigger fires to connect to this database. Do not use a TNS alias in the connector.
6.     Query the table first to see if a record already exists with that servername+dbname combination.
7.     If not, add a record and record the status and the sysdate. If so, just update that record. (We do not want more than 1 record for each database.)
8.     Determine risks involved with this activity and devise a strategy to mitigate them.
apprecited the inputs.
Thanks
Prakash

Oracle Startup/Shutdown with SQLPLUS and ORADIM in Windows...

I am a newbie to the Windows platform. SQLPLUS will not allow me to issue a STARTUP command. This is what I get when I attempt to SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE and subsequently issue a STARTUP MOUNT/NOMOUNT or any STARTUP command for that matter. The SHUTDOWN command works successfully but the subsequent startup fails with an ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor message.
D:\>set ORACLE_SID=NMPC00

SQL> startup mount
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

When I look at the Windows service, it still reports 'Started' despite the fact that I shutdown the instance. What is the proper protocol for shutting down and starting up an Oracle instance in Windows. Do I have to coordinate these activities with the ORADIM -STARTUP / -SHUTDOWN commands?

I am also newbie to oracle and running into the similar problem when trying to start oracle database using windows command prompt and getting the below error:
Command prompt is being run as administrator on windows7 O/S
C:\ORACLE\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\BIN>oradim -SHUTDOWN -SID O22BVGI -SHUTTYPE srvc,inst -SHUTMODE nornal
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
The reason behind this to do it is , I need a batch script for stopping and restarting the oracle database instance using a Pfile which will contain the initialization parameters.
Please can someone help!
sqlnet.ora is:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, ONAMES, HOSTNAME)
Kind Regards

Oracle Startup/Shutdown

Having trouble with EM in a windows server environment running 10G
When i startup/shutdown my server do i need to stop the listener, dbconsole and agent?
Everytime i reboot my TEST server EM stops working. I have checked the windows services start ok - all do with no errors. but i get the listeneer starting sometimes and sometime not. The agent and DB instance connection instances show failed on the http://myserver:1158/em page.
I have checked tnsnames and listener.ora.
Is there a process of things to start/stop when rebooting my server?
Also whe i try to start them manually a page is displayed saying enter logon credential but the credentials i enter .e.g. sys-password123 are not accepted. Does anyone have any idea what the credential i should be inputting here is it oracle-oralce or something?
Please note i have done loads of reading but can't find a solution to my problem thanks to all who take time to read/reply to what may seem a very basic question

By default the Oracle services are set to automatically start. When you reboot your server the services start and you should be able to connect. However if you try to connect right after the reboot, most probably this error will show up since the Enterprise Manager requires the database to be already registered against the listener, which may take a while (not more than 60 sec),
Verify this checklist:
1. The listener is up and running. LSNRCTL STATUS
2. The database is registered against the listener. You may issue the command LSNRCTL SERVICES.
3. You may force the database to be registered against the listener by issuing the ALTER SYSTEM REGISTER; command from a sqlplus prompt.
One more things you should take care of is the IP assignment method, if you have a dynamic IP address assignment you should configure a loopback adapter and and have the Loopback Adapter's IP address registered at the hosts file along with the hostname. If you fail to do so you may find EM will be requesting you for the logon credentials when you attempt to access the Performance tab or any other administrative task.
You may read this reference for further Enterprise Manager troubleshooting --> Enterprise Manager DB Control Console.

Does Oracle support OOPS concept?if it is YES , in what ways...Please ..

My question is . The Oracle Database 9i does it support ALL OOPS concepts.? How it can be implemented in pl/sql
or sql plus..

Information on OOPS support can be found in the Oracle9i Application Developer's Guide - Object-Relational Features
