Oracle VM Template Error - Power on VM: failed

Hi This is driving me crazy.
I'm trying to do proof on concept so I can check we can use this in our enterprise.
I have set up 64bit Oracle VM and Oracle VM Manager with a working 2003 server no problems its running fine.
I have downloaded the Oracle VM Template which has Oracle 10G database 64bit linux install.
I have imported it and then when i try to power on I get the following error, with the pre-warning message below it.
The template is running off local storage which is plentyful.
Also is there any easy way of seeing how how storage you actually have, I find the interface quite frustrating on the storage front.
Power on VM: failed:<Exception: return=>failed:<Exception: ['xm', 'create', '/OVS/running_pool/24_scctest/vm.cfg']=>Error: Boot loader didn't return any data! > StackTrace: File "/opt/ovs-agent-2.2/OVSXXenVM.py", line 57, in xen_start_vm run_cmd(args=cmd) File "/opt/ovs-agent-2.2/OVSCommons.py", line 98, in run_cmd raise Exception('%s=>%s' % (cmdlist, p.childerr.read())) > StackTrace: File "/opt/ovs-agent-2.2/OVSSiteVM.py", line 86, in start_vm raise e Oct 6, 2009 9:38:33 AM Error

Please help

I suspect that the hypervisor isn't capable of running the guest. Check the output of xm info|grep xen_caps to see if it can run x86_64 guests. Here is an example:
# xm info|grep xen_caps
xen_caps : xen-3.0-x86_64 xen-3.0-x86_32p hvm-3.0-x86_32 hvm-3.0-x86_32p hvm-3.0-x86_64

Hello;
Very difficult to read your post.
If your standby is in "recovery - mount" a 1033 is normal assuming you are trying to shut down the standby.
Otherwise try this query on the standby:
select process, client_process, sequence#, status from V$managed_standby;
If there is a MRP or a MRP0 process, the database is performing managed recovery. Otherwise It's not ready and you may have found your cause.

Try this. It worked for me.
Please keep in mind that you will need wait till each step finishes successfully before move to next one
For Step1 and 2, you can skip node(s) on which you didn't execute root.sh yet.
Step 1: As root, run "$GRID_HOME/crs/install/rootcrs.pl -verbose -deconfig -force" on all nodes, except the last one.
Step 2: As root, run "$GRID_HOME/crs/install/rootcrs.pl -verbose -deconfig -force -lastnode" on last node. This command will zero out OCR and VD disk also.
Step 3: As root, run $GRID_HOME/root.sh on all node one by one

It looks like your disk drive may have bad sectors on it, and when the dd copy reaches those bad sectors, it reports an error. Check /var/log/messages on the OVM server to see if it reports disk errors.

Linux - Oracle - Crystal Report Server XI : Error in File Report1: Failed to load database information.

I am using Crystal Reports Server XI on Linux Server with Oracle Server 10g.
I did install Oracle Client on Report Server and config Oracle SID in tnsnames.ora also. It works well with tnsping command. Then, I published a report which was created in Crystal Reports developer on this server.
When I preview the report on Report Server. I got the following error message:
Error in File Report1: Failed to load database information.
Try to fix the problem I ran web Central Management Console -> Objects ->Report1->Process -> Database and set there the following parameters:
Database driver: Oracle
Server: servers_host_name
Database: (tried both ORACLE_SID and tns_name)
User: oracle_user_name
Password: oracle_pw
It still got the same problem.
I will appreciate any help.
Tham.

I was having a similar problem in Crystal Reports Server 2008 v1, and had to install the full client to resolve it, which I didn't like. I poked around some, and was able to get the Instant Client working with a few minor changes. Note that I tried it only with the 32-bit Instant Client even though I was on a 64-bit system because that was what SAP recommended when I talked to them.
The changes I had to do was initialize the Oracle environment variables (the instant client doesn't have a script to do this for you) and to create a soft-link which is included in the full client, but not in the instant client.
To setup the environment variables I created a file called env.sh and put it in /opt/crystal/bobje/setup/oracle/, where /opt/crystal was my install path. This ensured that it got called by the /opt/crystal/bobje/setup/env.sh script which runs as part of the System init scripts to initialize the environment. The following is what I put in my file (again for the 32-bit 11g R2 instant client):
     export ORACLE_SID=summitdb
     export ORACLE_HOME='/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client'
     export ORACLE_BASE='/usr/lib/oracle/'
     export TNS_ADMIN='/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client/network/admin'
     export PATH="$:/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client/bin"
     export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$$/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client/lib"
After that, I created the missing soft link using this command:
     ln -s "$/lib/libclntsh.so.11.1" "$/lib/libclntsh.so.10.1"
Once I had done those two things, and restarted the service using the /etc/init.d script, it worked fine.

OI template error - Failed to create template

Hi,
I was under the impression that the Excel snapshot templates could be customized and tried to do this but it didn't work. I restored the master (copied it back to the template folder) but got an error message when I try to (re)set the template paths: Failed to create template (template name here).
I uninstalled OI completely and reinstalled (both server and client) but still get the above message, even when I changed the path where the templates are installed. This is only on the workstations, not on the server so I'm thinking that there is something on the workstation that is stored that doesn't get uninstalled when the add-on is uninstalled.
Even though the templates are installed in the folders indicated in the OI Company Setup, the snapshot templates are not available when in Outlook, no doubt because of this error message; there is something that isn't properly installed that links the templates to Outlook.
Any ideas how I get rid of this message? Don't see why uninstall would not fix this; sounds like a bug with the add-on.
Thank you,
Heather

XSU error oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Conversion to String failed

Appication Server: 10g, Database: Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g
I have a table 'sw_icd2' in the database that has one column of XMLType.
The code below, attempts to query this table as 'select * from sw_icd2' and display the result. I was able to execute this query in sqlplus.
But when I run a program using XSU in JDeveloper:
OracleXMLQuery qry = new OracleXMLQuery(conn, "select * from sw_icd2");
XMLDocument domDoc = (XMLDocument)qry.getXMLDOM();
domDoc.print(System.out);
StringWriter s = new StringWriter(10000);
domDoc.print(new PrintWriter(s));
System.out.println(s.toString());
qry.close();
I get the following Error:
"oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Conversion to String failed"
Any ideas on how I can resolve this issue? Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Okay, it looks like the problem has something to do with the TIMESTAMP data type in tables.
oracle.xml.sql.query.OracleXMLQuery can't seem to handle tables with the TIMESTAMP data type.
this code ran fine on my machine :
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
import oracle.xml.sql.query.OracleXMLQuery;
import java.lang.*;
import java.sql.*;
public class testXMLSQL {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
// Create the connection
System.out.println("before getConnection ");
Connection conn = getConnection("scott","tiger");
System.out.println("after getConnection ");
// Create the query class
OracleXMLQuery qry = new OracleXMLQuery(conn, "SELECT * FROM EMP");
System.out.println("after OracleXMLQuery object created ");
// Get the XML string
String str = qry.getXMLString();
// Print the XML output
System.out.println("The XML output is:\n"+str);
// Always close the query to get rid of any resources..
qry.close();
} catch(SQLException e) {
System.out.println(e.toString());
// Get the connection given the user name and password.!
private static Connection getConnection(String username,
String password)
throws SQLException
// register the JDBC driver..
DriverManager.registerDriver(new
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
// Create the connection using the OCI8 driver
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@<server_name>:1521:<sid>",
username,password);
return conn;
Then I created another table :
create table emp_test as select * from emp;
added a timestamp to it :
alter table emp_test add (time timestamp(6));
and filled it with timestamp information :
update emp_test set time = timestamp'2005-09-22 09:26:50.124';
ran the same code but changed the SQL to :
"SELECT * FROM EMP_TEST"
and got the error message :
The XML output is:
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<ERROR>oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Conversion to String failed</ERROR>
looks like bug in OracleXMLQuery object??

I have also tried TDK, Maxell, Verbatim and Sony media
Me too. Out of that list the only brand that has NEVER produced a coaster (on the same burner as yours) is Verbatim DVD-R and Fuji DVD-R. All the others produced a 25-50% failure rate.
Have you tried burning at a slower speed?
Using 16x DVD media is fine - in fact it is difficult to buy any other - but there is a consensus in the Apple Support Forums that a slower burn is a better burn i.e. 2x or 4x (slow burns are better burns!). I always use Toast for burning.
The term "Best" means the fastest speed that the drive told Toast it can write to a specific disc. The drive's firmware and info on the disc decide what speed burns are available. When you press the speed setting button in Toast (after inserting a disc) you'll likely see some speeds in italics and some in bold face. The ones in bold face are supported by that media on that drive. The fastest one is what Toast calls Best.
Audio CDs in particular should be burned at the lowest supported speed.
Verification is a good indicator the disc is burned okay. However, other DVD players can still have problems with the disc. Media problems with various drives is not uncommon. Slower burning may reduce the chance of those problems, and is one of the reasons why RW (read/write) media is always rated slower than DVD-R.
There are some interesting facts here:
http://www.osta.org/technology/dvdqa/dvdqa4.htm and here:
http://www.osta.org/technology/dvdqa/dvdqa4.htm
But many will tell you that the 'slower burn is best' theory is outdated. Who really knows? At the end of the day, if your home-made DVD was verified by Toast and will play anywhere on anybody's DVD player, then that is the result we are all after!

Please suggest.

Oracle SQL template to create re-usable DDL/DML Scripts for Oracle database

Hi,
I have a requirement to put together a Oracle SQL template to create re-usable DDL/DML Scripts for Oracle databases.
Only the Oracle DBA will be running the scripts so permissions is not an issue.
The workflow for any DDL is as follows:-
1) New Table
a. Check if the table exists from the system/admin views.
b. If table exists then give message "Table Exists"
c. If table does not exist then execute DDL code
2) Add Column
a. Check if Column exists for a given table from system/admin views
b. If column exists in the specified table,
b1. backup table.
b2. alter table to make changes to the column
b3. verify data or execute dml script convert from backup to the new change.
c. If Column does not exist
c1. backup table
c2. alter table to add column
c3. execute dml to populate column with default value.
The DML scripts are for populating base tables with data required for business operations.
3) Add new row
a. check if row exists by comparing old values of each column with new values to be added for the new record.
b. If exists, give message row exists
c. If not exists, add new record.
4) Update existing record (We have createtime columns in these tables so changes can be tracked)
a. check if row exists using primary key.
b. If exists,
b1. deactivate the record using the "active" column of the table
b2. Add new record with the changes required.
c. If does not exist, add new record with the changes required.
Could you please help with some ideas which can get this done accurately?
I have tried several ways, but I am not able to put together something that fulfills all requirements.
Thank you,

First let me address your question. (This is the easy part.)
1. The existence of tables can be found in DBA_TABLES. Query it and and then use conditional logic and execute immediate to process the DDL.
2. The existence of table columns is found in DBA_TAB_COLUMNS. Query it and then conditionally execute your DDL. You can copy the "before picture" of the table using that same dba view, or even better, use DBMS_METADATA.
As for your DML scripts, they should be restartable, reversible, and re-run-able. They should "fail gracefully" on error, be written in such a way that they can run twice in a row without creating duplicate changes.
3. Adding appropriate constraints can prevent invalid duplicate rows. Also, you can usually add to the where clause so that the DML does only what it needs to do without even relying on the constraint (but the constraint is there as a safeguard). Look up the MERGE statement to learn how to do an UPSERT (update/insert), which will let you conditionally "deactivate" (update) or insert a record. Anything that you cannot do in SQL can be done with simple procedural code.
Now, to the heart of the matter...
You think I did not understand your requirements?
Please be respectful of people's comments. Many of us are professionals with decades of experience working with databases and Oracle technology. We volunteer our valuable time and knowledge here for free. It is extremely common for someone to post what they feel is an easy SQL or PL/SQL question without stating the real goal--the business objective. Experienced people will spot that the "wrong question" has been asked, and then cut to the chase.
We have some good questions for you. Not questions we need answers from, but questions you need to ask yourself and your team. You need to reexamine this post and deduce what those questions are. But I'll give you some hints: Why do you need to do what you are asking? And will this construct you are asking for even solve the root cause of your problems?
Then ponder the following quotations about asking the right question:
Good questions outrank easy answers.
— Paul Samuelson
The only interesting answers are those which destroy the questions.
— Susan Sontag
The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.
— Claude Levi-Strauss
You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers. You can tell whether a man is wise by his questions.
— Mahfouz Naguib
One hears only those questions for which one is able to find answers.
— Friedrich Nietzsche
Be patient towards all that is unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves.
— Rainer Maria Rilke
What people think of as the moment of discovery is really the discovery of the question.
— Jonas Salk
Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.
— Voltaire
The ability to ask the right question is more than half the battle of finding the answer.
— Thomas J. Watson

Real Application Clusters 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2) Oracle VM Template

Hello,
I am triying to build an Oracle Rac with 2 nodes under: Oracle VM Server 2.2.1 (All in one server).
I downloaded the templates:
Oracle RAC 11gR2 (11.2.0.2.0) VM template Linux X86 64bit
I followed the instructions in the document: rac11202-ovm-tmplt-test-config-170450.pdf
All goes well until: Install Grid Infrastructure and Oracle RAC
After I execute:
cd /u01/racovm
./buildcluster.sh
It ends with the errors:

ACFS-9309: ADVM/ACFS installation correctness verified.

Do you have any idea, what could be the problem. ?
Greetings.

I would like to add more information:
After the error, in DOM-0 there is a proccess consuming 100% of CPU, and it never ends.
