Oracle support identifier
I have logged into metalink.oracle.com and trying to complete the registration process, It asks me for a support identifier? I have downloaded oracle 10g for linux. Where do I get this from ?
Prashanth
You contact your local Oracle Sales person, and purchase a license, which includes a support contract. When you've done that, Oracle will provide you with a CSI number. That number is entered, and that will authorize you to access MetaLink.

Download Patch Set without Oracle Support Identifier
How do you download the Patch Set under the developer licences. I don't have a Oracle support identifier.
The relevance of this question is, when you have 4.2 on an Oracle Express instance how do you upgrade it to 4.2.1
Can the 4.2.1 full download be used?
Thanks
Edited by: into-oracle on Mar 17, 2013 8:57 PMHi,
The developer base volume and software application user volumes have to be miles apart. :-)
And commercial reality I expect will come from the user volume base (as in users using software built by developers).
It is the era of .99cent apps and that model is effective when you have large consumption. How about all forum users have a registration fee of $2.00? :-)
Anyway's the current scenario is not increasing take-up :-)
e.g. Developer downloads express edition, this comes with a version of apex. Along comes new apex version. Now what is the upgrade path to try/test the new features.
Keep in mind release cycles are shorter nowadays.
We live in the era of VM's now.
I want to be making 1 steps forward (upgrade apex) not 2 step back(export applications and misc, un-install apex) and then 2 steps forward (install apex, import applications and misc).

I have one support identifier shown for my company. I need add a second but the number is not recognized. The number is correct. Is it possible to have more than 1 in My Oracle Support? Even if I delete the other identifier the new one I need to add is not found.

Need Info to access My Oracle support account
Hi..
I need info regrading the My Oracle support account.I came to know that It needs a CSI ,How can I get this CSI ? Will Oracle charge for CSI ? If so , may I know the amount ?
Actually ,I need to download some patches for Solaris Sparc 10u10 its very urgent .Pls help me
Thanks in advance.A CSI is a "Customer Support Identifier" so you need a support contract to get one, yes.
You need to talk to your local sales rep to buy it, or, right on the support front page before you log in is a link to [url http://www.oracle.com/support/contact.html]Contact Support

Oracle Support - Outdated version
AM looking for info on support vs running oracle on a non-supported version. By this I mean running a version that no longer gets CPU, etc. We do support for a client that has seven licenses all running 10.2.0.3, which earlier this year extended beyond its CPU time line. We are recommending upgrades to 10.2.0.4 but there is some resistance on there part. In a situation where Oracle support would be required, which we pay for, would they attempt to work through the issue or suggest getting it upgraded first and then trying to resolve the issue. Any and all comments welcome.
Thanks
MartinIf you pay for support, Oracle Support will work with you to get whatever version of the database you are working on working correctly. There will almost always be a suggestion to upgrade if an issue comes up, but they understand that is not always possible. If you happen to hit a bug that is fixed in the 10.2.0.4 patchset or some one-off patch that requires 10.2.0.4, Support won't backport that fix to 10.2.0.3 for you at this point. And if you identify a bug that hasn't been fixed yet, they aren't going to create a patch for the bug on 10.2.0.3. Other than that, they'll be happy to help.

I wonder how other users feel about transition of support from Primavera to Oracle.
Here is some thought I have on it, I hope some of you can help me understand why it is as it is.
Contract*
We have huge problem with signing/renewing Support Contract. We've asked Oracle for quotation end of October and still did not receive any price offer. I've email to at least 7 Oracle employees, tried to escalate it but still - there is no offer in my inbox.
Perhaps our licenses setup is a bit strange for Oracle, but for Primavera it was fine - I have CM licenses in several offices divided into groups, in some offices I don’t need to update to CM13 (which is far too buggy to install it in offices which do not have in-house support). Also for other reasons I simply do not want to keep maintenance contract for all licenses.
Oracle uses License Sets that MUST contain all licenses of the same product and they want me to buy maintenance for all licenses, no matter if I use support for them or not.
Looks like they want to protect themselves from companies who will buy maintenance for one license and use it for 100 licenses? Well then why with CM13 they skipped concurrent users limit hardcoded in the application?
Well I don’t want to trash licenses of xx K $ worth! Since Primavera had it set up like that, why Oracle seats in and changes the rules without my knowledge and permit?
My Oracle Support*
I have feeling that there is less support now. SR's don’t get updated as often, information about updates of SR is giving wrong info. Email notification is not working in my case. SR history for some reason contains spam notifications of updating SR...
I miss the chat feature form POINT - initiate chat and get response the same hour...
After updating a SR there is some kind of confirmation msg that gets stuck under the window, very often I cannot update or read SRs due to numerous "network/IO/communication" errors.
I'm sorry but besides having a BUG list (finally!) i find My Oracle Support a well-dressed downgrade from POINT.
In general this post turned out pretty negative, which was not the intention. Hope some of you will post positive comments on Oracle Support.Hi people,
Well it looks like we all have problems. Although I can log into My Support, I cannot create new SRs. After 3 weeks of trying to get Oracle to do something about this they tell me it because thay don't have me registered on a valid Support Identifier, despite oracle giving me the number. My suspition is that somehow they have not updated the support contracts.
Anyhow, the result is that I con't get decent resolutions to my problems implementing CM version 13. As I'm downunder in New Zealand and am one of only 2 companies running CM we have little or no support here. I currently get most of my supprt through this forum.
I have started to look for alternative solutions as I am sick and tired of the lack of support.

Does Oracle support downlaods?
An Oracle Support Analyst recently told me that downloads from
TechNet are not officially supported by Oracle, after I had
created a TAR for a 9i database problem which had been installed
from such a download. Unless I reinstalled from CDs they were
unwilling to progress the TAR, unless I could come up with a
fully reproducable test case which would have been difficult as
it was an intermittent problem. The question is where on OTN
does it say that downloads are unsupported and does this include
the patches on Metalink? Are Oracle effectively saying that we
shouldn't be downloading software. The problem with ordering
CD's is that they only seem to be available weeks/months after
the download is first made available and patches often need to
be installed in a hurry.Let me try that again...

does not: (i) create, or purport to create, obligations of us
with respect to the Oracle programs; or (ii) grant, or purport
to grant, to any third party any rights to or immunities under
our intellectual property or proprietary rights in the Oracle
programs. For example, you may not develop a software program
using an Oracle program and an Open Source program where such
use results in a program file(s) that contains code from both
the Oracle program and the Open Source program (including
without limitation libraries) if the Open Source program is
licensed under a license that requires any "modifications" be
made freely available. You also may not combine the Oracle
program with programs licensed under the GNU General Public
License ("GPL") in any manner that could cause, or could be
interpreted or asserted to cause, the Oracle program or any
modifications thereto to become subject to the terms of the GPL.

My Oracle Support (requires Flash)
Trying to access new metalink My Oracle Support (requires Flash) , ending up with error, even i put my CSI # also?
any body know the fix?
Access to all other features in My Oracle Support is disabled. This account requires one valid Support Identifier.I had the same problem and phoned support.
I was told the new support site did not work with IE 7 or Firefox 3 and I should revert my browser to a previous release !
Can you believe anyone would release to production a web app that does not work with the current version of the two most common web browsers?
I think the problem is fixed now, but I HATE the flash inturdface and continue to use the old Metalink. -
When i click on the Need Training & Support, Oracle asked for Support Identifier. Please let me know what is Support Identifier and from where we get the information of the support identifier.
Under training and support there are contact numbers for Customer Care, there are free call numbers for your lcoal country. You need to call them and ask them what your CSI number is.
