Oracle Upgrade 10.2.0.2 to 11g
Hello,
We have planed to upgrade the database Oracle from 10.2.0.2 to 11g.
We are wondering wether there is a risk to upgrade directely to 11g from our current version.
Also, what are the important points to observe and what are the tests to do in SAP before upgrading ?
Many thanks in advance
Regards
Ben
Just follow the Oracle upgrade guides at
http://service.sap.com/instguides
--> Database Upgrades
--> Oracle
- read all the notes mentioned in the guide
- make sure you use a proper kernel and a proper instantclient
- make sure you apply not only the upgrade itself but also all PSU patches
- take a full backup of the system
I suggest to first upgrade a test and/or qa system and then do the production.

Oracle upgrade in Solution Manager 10g to 11g
Dear Expert team ,
Our Solution Manager is running in Windows 2003 with oracle 10g .

Now I want to upgrade my Solution Manager 10 g to 11g .
what oracle component should I download and how to upgrade 10.2.0.2.0 to 11.2.0.3.0.
Please suggest.

PoojaHi
The upgrade is possible as stated in the here under note.
Previous version (v15) of that note was even a bit more clear it is possible but version 10.2.0.4 is preferred.
Direct upgrade from 10.2.0.2 should not be a problem, as it is even possible to have a direct upgrade from 9.2.0.8 to 11.2.0.4.
1431793 - Oracle 11.2.0: Upgrade Scripts
A database < 9.2.0.8 must be upgraded to 9.2.0.8 before it can be upgraded directly to 11.2.0.4.
You should consider jumping directly to 11.2.0.4 that is the latest 11g version and the only one that will have a long term support.
Regards
1431797 - Oracle 11.2.0: Troubleshooting the Database Upgrade
For a database upgrade from 10.2. to 11.2 the minimum release is 10.2.0.2. This release is not supported any more.
1431797 - Oracle 11.2.0: Troubleshooting the Database Upgrade v15
We strongly recommend a minimum release 10.2.0.4 for the following reasons:
a) All SAP internal database upgrade tests have been performed with
release 10.2.0.4. This upgrade path has been very well tested and
is documented in the SAP Database Upgrade Guide for Oracle Release
11.2.
b) Oracle Database Release 10.2.0.2 is not supported any more. -
Oracle Upgrade from 10g to 11g [BRANCHED BY MODERATOR]
Hi Deepak/Folks,
Another question that I have is that while doing the Oracle Upgrade on an EP server, the patches were not installed properly and I had to shut down the Patches installation after it did not do anything for a while.
Now when I try to install the patches it fails telling me that the Installed patches cannot be verified, I had written to SAP and they told me to follow the
SAP note 1862446 - Inventory
load failed... OPatch cannot load inventory for the given Oracle Home
and re-create the oracle inventory.
This has also not helped in anyway.
Is there a solution to this problem.
Following is the error that I am getting when I try to Install the patches
Getting pre-run patch inventory...

Oracle Upgrade from 10g to 11g [BRANCHED BY MODERATOR] -
I am in the process of upgrade from 10gR2 to 11gR2. After Installing 11gR2 in a new ORACLE_HOME, i have decided to use DBUA to upgrade the database from 10g to 11g.
All my user Table Spaces are on different Mount points. for eg. /u60/app/ORACLE/oradata/dss/account_totals_2003_ltd.dbf, /u70/app/ORACLE/oradata/dss/account_totals_2004_ltd.dbf', /u80/app/ORACLE/oradata/dss/account_totals_2005_ltd.dbf'......etc etc.
Here are my concerns.
1. During the DBUA process, we get an option where it asks ' do you want to move the database files as a part of upgrade ? . Now, if i just leave the datafiles where they are during the upgrade, all the oracle system, sys and other datafiles will be left in Oracle 10g HOME. I plan on uninstalling and removing the 10g after 11g upgrade.
What happens to these files if i uninstall 10g.
2. Is there an option where i can just pick the option to move the files, but only the system and SYS table space to new Oracle HOME ( 11g) , but leave all the user table spaces on its own mount points. An option where i can pick and choose what to move and what to leave them at its original location.
Thanks

.... The most likely response is from someone training to sell unauthorised learning materials.
..... The OCP should understand the exams topics and online manuals for 11g should be sufficient. Oracle Press Books and Sybex Books for 11g DBA OCP should also cover number of the required topics if that helps. Not to mention Oracle University Training.

Oracle Upgrade -- Pre-Upgrade 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.1
Hello,
I want to do an Oracle Upgrade to version 11.2g!
At this point I did some things (in Windows Server 2003 X64):
1-) Install Oracle 10.2.0.1 (DVD Media);
2-) Installation of Oracle patchset 10.2.0.4 (note 871735);
3-) Installation of interim / last generics patch (note 1137346);
4-) Installation of SAP ECC 6.0 SR3 by SAPInst
5-) After SAP installation I did all the corrections in Oracle parameters as it mentioned in note 830576.
As you see above, all the SAP system was well installed!
But now I want to do the Oracle Upgrade process to the last version, Oracle DB 11.2g (11.2.0.1)... and so I´m following the Upgrade guide "Upgrade to Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) Windows.pdf" with some SAP notes for Upgrade process.
So I´m at this point in planning chapter where is recommended to check so things in actual database, one of this checks are running some SQL-scripts to perform an Oracle database upgrade with DBUA to release 11.2 (as mentioned in note 1431793 - Oracle 11.2.0: Upgrade Scripts)
I ran two Pre-Scripts, the @pre_upgrade_status.sql and @pre_upgrade_tasks.sql but both outputs showed some warnings and they are worrying me... so what I ask to you is some kind of help in analyse of them and tell me if this issues are relevant for the upgrading process and if so, what you recommend me to do to correct their!
Next I will post here this two log scripts... they are long!!!PRE_UPGRADE_TASKS.log:

Recommendations
Oracle recommends gathering dictionary statistics prior to
upgrading the database.
To gather dictionary statistics execute the following command
while connected as SYSDBA:
EXECUTE dbms_stats.gather_dictionary_stats;
Oracle recommends removing all hidden parameters prior to upgrading.
To view existing hidden parameters execute the following command
while connected AS SYSDBA:
SELECT name,description from SYS.V$PARAMETER WHERE name
LIKE '\_%' ESCAPE '\'
Changes will need to be made in the init.ora or spfile.
Oracle recommends reviewing any defined events prior to upgrading.
To view existing non-default events execute the following commands
while connected AS SYSDBA:
Events:
SELECT (translate(value,chr(13)||chr(10),' ')) FROM sys.v$parameter2
WHERE UPPER(name) ='EVENT' AND isdefault='FALSE'
Trace Events:
SELECT (translate(value,chr(13)||chr(10),' ')) from sys.v$parameter2
WHERE UPPER(name) = '_TRACE_EVENTS' AND isdefault='FALSE'
Changes will need to be made in the init.ora or spfile.

Hello Experts,
We have to upgrade oracle db from 10.2.0.2 to 11g.
While upgrading to PRD system there is DR system also, which uses DataGuard for archive update on DR system.
I would like to know that we need to take special care for DataGuard or DBUA will take care of DataGuard mechanism?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
YogeshHi Yogesh,
in a SAP environment it is even more specific than the standard oracle upgrade guide (because of the compatible parameter and SAP scripts).
We discussed this already in this thread: Upgrade to Oracle 11G in standby environment

Issues after upgrading the Obiee from 10g to 11g
Hi all,
We have recently upgraded our rpd from 10g to 11g. And a part of Webcatlog is being upgraded. We observe issues with the upgraded reports.
As the for the report prompts the script was taking lot of time. And the browser pop's a message either to 'stop' or 'continue'.
The report is taking lot of time to run than the usual 10g environment. And the path BP1 is also applied for the 11g environment.
Please suggest a troubleshoot method to overcome the issues with the upgraded reports.
Thank you,

Oracle Upgrade to 9i for BO 5i
I'm preparing for an Oracle upgrade from 8.1.6 to 9.2 and a unix server migration via Oracle Export / Import. Potentially going on to 10g at a later point.
Will importing the BO user and re-pointing users to the new database be sufficient to upgrade the BO elements or are there other steps? I believe some overnight jobs are kicked off externally by what sounds like the "SDK" so I don't believe there are any server related BO elements in BO 5i.
All help appreciated. Information on the ground here is quite sketchy and I'm not a BO person.
Regardsyou can always upgrade to new versions from lower versions.
(upgradation to 9i from 7.x is also possible) -
Oracle Upgrade 8.1.7.4 to 10g in Red hat linux
Dear All,
We are planning to upgrade our oracle database from 8i to 10g along with the Redhat linux upgrade from 2.4.9-e 27 ent to Red Hat Linux 5. In my study and also from Installation guides and oracle upgrade guides I made sure that its possible to upgrade our database from 8.1.7.4.
So I have planned the below options to do the same and not sure about the possibilities. If anyone have thoughts and idea on the same please suggest me.
We dont have plan to migrate the development hardware and the sap version is 4.7E
Option 1: Upgrade the Linux to 5 and then upgrading the database to 10g usign upgrade assistant tool
Option 2: Export the database using sapinst tool and then crashing the server. Installing linux5 and importing the database using sapinst tool.(I am aware this is not a good idea since there is no migration in hardware but it will be helpful in production since we are migrating the production system).
Option 3: Performing DBUA assistant in development and sapinst method in production.(helpful in disaster recovery)
Could you please suggest on the same?
My query is that.
If i am performing oracle export from 8.1.7.4 and if i am import the same in oracle 10g using the sapinst tool. Will this work? or it will create a problem in table level. I am looking for answers for this Question. Kindly explain me on this.
Regards
