Oracle Technology Support Champion

Dear all,
How to get this certificate.. Oracle Technology Support Champion. am unable to get any details about this..My company needs me to be certified as per some contract with the client.
Please advise
Kai

I would just like to verify for Kai and all, that the Oracle Support Champion is not a part of the Oracle Certification Program. This OPN credential is not an Oracle certification. You may represent yourself as an Oracle Support Champion based on the appropriate OPN guidelines, but you may not represent yourself as "Oracle Certified."

ECID Propagation and Oracle Technology Adapters - what is supported?

There is a mysterious release note for 11.1.1.1.0 that I think may be inaccurate or perhaps not properly scoped:
*21.1.1.1 ECID Propagation Is Not Supported by Oracle Technology Adapters*
[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/relnotes.1111/e10133/adapter.htm#CEGBDDJC|21.1.1.1 ECID Propagation Is Not Supported by Oracle Technology Adapters]
I have tested ECID propagation with the JMS JCA Adapter (Composite Reference publishing to JMS and a Composite Service subscribing to JMS) and the ECID is propagated and the context is correlated properly in EM. It has worked properly with both WLS JMS and TIBCO EMS on the back end. I peeked into the mechanism and the JMS JCA Adapter is populating the tracking_ecid, tracking_compositeInstanceId, tracking_parentComponenInstanceId, and tracking_conversationId JMS Message Properties.
Can anyone clarify the restrictions?
-Todd

Hey Todd - good catch!
The capability to propagate ECID was indeed added in the JMS adapter. We need to add some nuance to the above release note: this applies to most technology adapters but not all. Stay tuned and thanks for the heads-up.

XML Parsing in Java Stored Proc--Oracle XML Support Installation?

I am working with a third party product that is having difficulty running a java stored proc that is parsing a supplied XML file. The proc basically looks like:
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
InputStream is = getXMLAsInputStream(xml);
try {
DocumentBuilderFactory factory =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document document = builder.parse( is );
... parse the document ....
catch (FactoryConfigurationError e) {
// unable to get a document builder factory
We are running on 9.2.0.6, HP-UX 64-bit. At first, when we would attempt to run the proc, a database hang would occur; now after attempting to install using loadjava jars for xerces2.6: ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: Provider
org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl not found)
The vendor says that the errors we are getting when running are not due to any dependency on xerces or jre1.4, and that we need to "install Oracle XML support", but I'm not certain what this means (I cannot find any documentation on what to install). I believe that there are jars that need to be loaded into the database to support the XML parsing, as jre1.3 does not include built-in XML support, and Oracle 9.2.0.6 uses jre1.3.
So...does anyone have any thoughts as to how to resolve the missing references? Is there a way to "install Oracle XML support", or is it to install the necessary jars?
Thanks,
Candi

Candi,
The following resources should be of help:
Oracle9i Database Release 2 (9.2) Documentation Library
In particular, check out the following:
Java Developer's Guide
Java Stored Procedures Developer's Guide
XML API Reference - XDK and Oracle XML DB
XML Database Developer's Guide - Oracle XML DB
XML Developer's Kits Guide - XDK
If that doesn't help, then try the following:
OracleJVM and Java Stored Procedures
XML Technology Center
Good Luck,
Avi.

Oracle's Support for Virtual Iron customers

Please refer to the blog entry at:
http://blogs.oracle.com/virtualization/2009/07/oracle_vm_blog_whats_safe.html
Lot's of chatter out there today about VMware's migration program. Below are a few points for customers to consider…
1. Oracle is dedicated to the on-going support of Virtual Iron customers and has enhanced the support offering beyond what was previously available from Virtual Iron. Oracle is pleased to be able to offer its Lifetime Support program for Virtual Iron products, which will extend sustaining support for these products and the Virtual Iron Enterprise Edition products indefinitely. Please refer to the Lifetime Support Policy: Oracle Technology Products on the specific support options for Virtual Iron products. In addition, Oracle has retained Virtual Iron support personnel, so that people who provided support prior to the acquisition will continue to do so going forward.
2. Our intent is to seamlessly combine Virtual Iron's technology with Oracle VM to deliver a product that is unique in the industry both in breadth of functionality, and also depth of features specifically designed to make the full application stack easier to deploy, manage, and support in a virtual environment. Through the combination of Virtual Iron's technology with Oracle VM, customers will be able to benefit from an optimized, efficient application infrastructure with low operating costs. In the meantime, existing customers can be assured that they are fully supported, 24x7 through a world-class support organization.
3. Oracle VM is a free download. Virtual Iron customers can download and start using Oracle VM today. Oracle VM supports both Oracle and non-Oracle software, and delivers more efficient performance than other virtualization products. Moreover, there's no license cost for Oracle VM. You can benefit from complete virtualization and operating system stack with Oracle Enterprise Linux and Oracle VM that permits dramatically faster and easier deployment of enterprise software.
4. Compare. Oracle VM support pricing.
For more information, you can visit:
* Learn more about Oracle and Virtual Iron
* Oracle VM

Got my call and was unable to get all my questions answered (my fault had to cut call short), also I was unable to get the tech called back today so i am hoping that I can tomorrow.
Preliminary thoughts/answers seam to point that they will sell you additional licenses if you buy support for all of your existing boxes, plus the ones you want to add. Because I use single processor boxes I am trying to get them to license based on the cpu count instead of by the box. If by the box it doubles my cost.
We talked a great deal about the Oracle VM 2.2 that was released for download and how if compaired to Virtual iron. Oracle is not up to the Virtual Iron level yet but it made some big jumps and will be there pretty soon, by their account. I look forward to seeing the progress and the advances that they will surely incorperate with the huge influx of cash that Oracle will bring.
Stay tuned.

Will Oracle BPA support full BPMN 2.0 ?

Will Oracle BPA support full BPMN 2.0 and its conversion into BPEL 2.0 in new releases ? Or is it better to use JDeveloper with it BPM extension?

Hi,
Depends on what you expect from Oracle.
+11gR1 and 11gR2 are fully supported (premier support). 10gR1 and 10gR2 are in extended support. About 9.2 it's a bit more complicated and the general extended support ended : check note 161818.1 for further details.+
After the extended support there is still the sustaining support.
Read that to understand the notions :

Anyone know when will Oracle VDI support Oracle VM Server x86?

Hi there.
Is there a roadmap or plan for Oracle VDI support Oracle VM server x86?
I think we need enterprise class(type-1) hypervisor.
DH,

I dont think its in the roadmap because Oracle VM does not lend itself nicely to all the technology deeply embedded in Oracle VDI, namely, VRDP which is a proprietary remote desktop protocol Oracle VDI leverages to paint screens directly from a VirtualBox remote display session. The only thin Oracle VM (Xen) has close to this is the dated VNC protocol.
We went down this road early on, expecting Oracle VDI to integrate, but the more we learn about how Oracle VDI does things, the more it doesn't make sense to adapt Oracle VM Server to do this.
I don't know Oracles plans surrounding this (who does?) but it would seem it would take ALOT of work and redesign to make that happen, whereas they already acquired Oracle VDI (and VirtualBox) from their SUN acquisition.

Does oracle 9i support inctype option in exp or not?

Oracle's support in Django

I'm trying to decide which application server/framework I can use for python development and for that, in my case, oracle's support is a must.
While analyzing I found out Django is trying to add Oracle as an option right now, using, of course the cx_Oracle module: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/OracleBranch.
That's good news. If anyone can comment their experience with Zope, Django, etc I'll appreciate it.
TIA

Well, Django itself is great for development of `standard` applications. You create a model, enter 3 commands and then you have a working application with admin interface. Cool, but in my personal experience I've been hitting the wall pretty fast and the amount of time spent on decrypting automagical functionality of a framework is in direct proportion to time spent designing and implementing it ourselves. Problems like schema evolution still need to be resolved by hand.
My limited experience with Zope comes down to the fact that it is a bit like JBoss but focused more on the content management and portal solutions. Plone is a very interesting example of a widely used CMS running on top of Zope (plone.org and plone.net).
Some companies are using Java application servers together with Jython servlets. You can also now run ASP.NET written in IronPython (www.asp.net/ironpython). These two because out of all Web stacks these are the most mature and as we know Oracle's support of .NET and Java is outstanding.
If you are more into PHP or Perl, Python Server Pages from mod_python gives you capabilities similar to those offered by mod_php or mod_perl - but within Python.

ODI Reverse engineering for Oracle technology Custom views

We are using ODI (10.1.3.6) version and database oracle 11g.
Here we are trying to do reversing tables and views from oracle EBS database (11g).we used apps schema for database details. for oracle technology in the physical arch.
But views or tables are not visible to do reverse for oracle technology.
We have crated model and select the technology as oracle and corresponding logical schema , in the Reverse Tab we selected Standard ,selected views ,tables options and moved to select reverse Tab, and selected the 3 options of new datastore , existing.
But views or tables are not visible at all.
Please Anybody help me on this.
Thanks,
SRI

Hi,
Instead of Standard reverse go for Custom reverse and use RKM E-Business Suite for this purpose.
Thanks,

Create new Master Repository - oracle technology exist in logical topology

I have created a new master repository using the 'Create Master Repository' function in to an ORacle database user. This was all successful and I can sign in to topology manager as SUPERVISOR.
However I notice that the physical topology includes the 'oracle' technology in the list but this is NOT present in the logical topology.
When I import our models and projects that were developed elsewhere they fail becasue they are based on the oracle technology and this does not exist in the logical topology.
If I try to create the oracle technology or import it I get an error index violation on AK_TECHNO which is the index on the SNP_TECHNO table.
In the physical topology the oracle technology is shown as being both 'physical' and 'logical' (both check boxes are checked).
Any ideas ?

how can I find a way of admitting that this was indeed the case......................
Turned off the hide unused technologoes and there they all are - including Oracle.................
So that explains why it appeared at some point before - once some data servers had been defined etc...........
I have my dataservers and schemas loaded now in the physical topology - but they are still not shoinwg in the logical topology - I think this is due to the data server in physical not being in the correct context. When I click the physical dataserver and go in to the contexts tab and choose global I get the error message (logical topology not configured for this context).

Oracle Production Support Roles and Responsibilities

In addition to Joe's questions regarding if you don't know the answer, then how do you know you want the job .......
Regarding job titles:
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less."
(Lewis Carroll - Through the Looking Glass)
And so it is with job titles. Any given job title means only and exactly what the organization chooses it to mean -- "neither more nor less".
Even though we work in a technical industry, not every term you see has a universal, fixed, immutable, technical meaning. Not even close.
My first two jobs in IT were in shops that had exactly the same set of job titles for Programmers --
- Programmer/Analyst I
- Programmer/Analyst II
- Programmer/Analyst III
In one shop, the Programmer/Analyst III was the most junior of the three.
In the other, the Programmer/Analyst III was the most senior of the three.
So, you tell me, what is a "Programmer/Analyst III"? What is a "development DBA"? What is a "production support DBA"?

Oracle-Multilingual Support

Hi ,
I was wondering if it is possible to have a oracle database that stores data in different languages.
I have gone through few blogs which says Oracle supports Unicode characters & UTF8 supports all languages including multi-byte.
I would like to know what are the languages supported by oracle 10G.
Thanks in advance!
Para

Please, review this guide: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10729/toc.htm
It is the 11.2 version of the manual but the manual gets improved from release to release so it is better to read this version. Refer to the 10.2 version of the manual to verify the languages and territories that are supported in 10.2: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/toc.htm
Note, Oracle has multiple levels of language support. The levels are, in increasing number of languages supported at this level:
1. Oracle Text supports advanced linguistic operations for the given language.
2. Error messages and user interface of many tools, including administrative tools, are translated to the given language.
3. Error messages and user interface of many end-user tools, but not administrative tools, are translated to the given language.
4. Oracle Text supports basic linguistic operations (e.g. stemming) for the given language.
5. Sorting according to conventions of the given language is supported.
6. Date, number and currency formatting according to conventions of the given language/territory is supported.
7. Text in the given language can be stored.
I am not quite sure about the order of levels 3-5, that is, which one contains more languages.
Date, number and currency formatting depends mainly on territories (countries), not languages.
Level 7, which is the ability of the database to store text in a given language and do some basic text processing on it, like SUBSTR, INSTR or LIKE, practically contains all languages of the world. The prerequisite is that the database character set is AL32UTF8.
