TIA!

How to supress the Oracle version in Reporting

Hi All,
I am trying to run an .sql file
spool aPOORVA_TEST.log;
SET ECHO Off;
SET DEFINE OFF;
set feedback off;
set heading off;
set line 5000;
SELECT * FROM table WHERE ROWNUM<3;
Spool Off;
The output of this query is showing the Oracle Version along with the query result

Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options
How could i remove these which SET command is going wrong. Please advise.

Do you have a
sqlplus username/password@database command somewhere in the .sql file? How are you running the .sql file?
After logging into the SQL*Plus console?
If you are using sqlplus command in the sql file, then just suppress the ouput with -SILENT option or -s.

How to find out the Oracle Version in Windows platform (OS level)

Hi,
I have installed Oracle 8.1.7, 9.2.0.1 and 10.2.0.1on my Windows machine for testing purpose.
I want to list in my code as what are all the Oracle software version installed on my machine at OS level (before connecting into oracle).
Is there any way to get this.
Please help.
Thanks,

Steps to upgrade my Oracle version from 11.1.0.6 to 11.2.0.1 in windows.

Can anyone help me with the steps to upgrade my Oracle version from 11.1.0.6 to 11.2.0.1 in windows.
Thanks in advance.

If you are going to upgrade, you should upgrade to the latest 11gR2 patchset (currently 11.2.0.4). At a high level -
1. Install 11.2.0.4 into a new separate ORACLE_HOME - see MOS Doc 1562139.1 and Contents
2. Apply the latest 11.2.0.4 PSU bundle available for Windows - see MOS Doc 1454618.1
3. Use DBUA to perform the upgrade - MOS Doc 870814.1 and Contents
Also see
MOS Doc 1645862.1

How to find out what Oracle version?

Hi,
Could anyone tell me how to find out what Oracle version is on your AIX/Unix machine? It looks like Oracle Installer doesn't use the native OS installation(installp,pkgadd) process, so I can't use lslpp/pkginfo to find out what filesets are installed.
Thanks
HQ.

Hi!
As far ar Oracle version is concerned, you can find it at the database level after connecting to the database
select * from v$version;
i am not sure if there is someway to find at the o/s level.
Good luck

But if you want to disable it, Coskan had published a small post mentioning an undocumented parameter(which means you must think twice before using it) to disable it- disablehealth_check* .

Index rebuild in oracle version 8i

Hi All
Is there any other way we know which indexes we can rebuild in a database which is using RBO in oracle version 8
we dont want to analyze those indexes
Thanks

Why it is a condition that you don't want to go for analyze of the indexes?The answer to the question is almost "never".It really needs to be quantified that the rebuild will be of some benefit.On what benchmark you want to go for rebuild ofthe index?
You may like to read this blog about the same topic and many more on indexes,

Upgrade oracle version 10.1.0.4 to 10.2.0.2 or 10.2.0.4

Hello,
We are planning an upgrade of our CRM platform (CRM 5.0) with oracle version 10.1.0.4 to CRM 2007.
I was wondering which oracle version i would upgrade to : 10.2.0.2 or 10.2.0.4 ?
What do you guys think is the best/stable version ?
Thanks for your answers.
Rgds,
Marc.

Hello Marc,
i think you are mixing up two things
10.1.0.4 = 10g R1 with Patchset 4
10.2.0.2 = 10g R2 with Patchset 2
10.2.0.4 = 10g R2 with Patchset 4
So you always upgrade from 10g R1 to 10g R2 .. and then is the question which Patchset for 10g R2.
I would use 10gR2 with Patchset 4, because there are some nice features and not so many bug fixes to apply.
Regards
Stefan

Control file version 10.2.0.1.0 incompatible with ORACLE version 10.2.0.0.

hi;
I'm totally new to the oracle databases field...am trying to startup the database using the parameter file init.ora by using the command
startup pfile='/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/init.ora'
But its giving me the following error:
ORA-00201: control file version 10.2.0.1.0 incompatible with ORACLE version
10.2.0.0.0
ORA-00202: control file:
'/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/control01.ctl'
Can anyone help me with this error?
Thanks!

startup pfile='/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/init.ora'You are most likely using the wrong init.ora file. Get a list of files at /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/
For the database ORACLE_SID that you are attempting to startup, there would be an initSID.ora or spfileSID.ora
e.g. if the ORACLE_SID is PROD, the file would be initPROD.ora or spfilePROD.ora
The spfileSID.ora is a binary file and should not be accessed by a text-editor.

Mismatch between COMPATIBLE Parameter and Oracle Version

Hi,
If the ORACLE version is say 11g but the compatible parameter in init.ora is say 9.2.0 or 8.1.7 what will be the effect on the database?
Will the database behave as like 11g or of the lower version?
If we alter the init.ora to the new version for compatible paremeter will it affect DB rebooting?
This is an interview question and i could not answer.
Please let me know the answers.

I see that there are several not needed date to char conversions. I could imaging that they confuse the query merge mechanism. Other than that: try to strip down the query to the smallest posisble set of colum combination. So that you can see where the error comes from.

How to mounted oracle database automatically in oracle version 8.1.7?

i want to know,how to mounted oracle database automatically in oracle version 8.1.7?

Does this mean you are not using the WIndows operating system, or you doi not want to do this 'manually' using some point and click method?
If this means, "do it automatically for reboots" and you are using the Windows OS, you need to set up a service and set it to automatic at reboot. Or, again in a Windows environment but at commnand line, use "net start {service name}" - as described in the manual.

Dataguard between different oracle versions

Can I dataguard an 11.1.0.6 database to a backup 11.2.0.1 database

For rolling upgrade purposes yes. But only to a Logical standby. And you can also use the transient Logical standby rolling upgrade as well if you are a Physical standby user.
See the following:
Mixed Oracle Version support with Data Guard Redo Transport Services (Doc ID 785347.1) on Oracle Support
MAA Rolling Upgrade paper at http://www.oracle.com/technology/deploy/availability/maa/maa_wp_11g_upgrades_made_easy.pdf
