Oracle8i to Oracle9i Upgrade Docs

Hi there,
Please can someone direct me to a place I can download an upgrade manual for Oracle 8i to 9i Release 2 on Windows. I have a client that is upgrading their Peoplesoft Enterprise One (JDEdwards) implementation to PeopleSoft Enterprise One 8.11 and we need to upgrade the Database first. Unfortunately PeopleSoft Enterprise One does not seem to support Oracle 10g yet.

Hi,
You have two ways to migrate from 8i to 9iR2. It's not very difficult to make this upgrade. Less than 0,5 day to upgrade a database...
Export 8i/import 9i : metalink note 132904.1 - Compatibility Matrix for Export & Import Between Different Oracle Versions
Manual upgrade : metalink note 159657.1 - Complete Upgrade Checklist for Manual Upgrades from 8.X / 9.0.1 to Oracle9i
You have too the upgrade assistant, but I don't like this one.
Hope this help you.
Nicolas.

Oracle8i and Oracle9i with BWLS5.1

Hi, I need help!!!
I ve a Oracle8i and an Oracle9i connection pools in WLS 5.1
The Oracle9i connection pool is not stable, and have been told to upgrad the drivers for it. I wonder if there is any problem use connection pool to an Oracle8i and Oracle9i, without any conflicts.
Can WLS5.1 handle it? how should I do ?
Pleaaaase!
regards / John Cokoulo

Hi Sree,
Sorry, I was wrong, I found the JDBC drivers for the Oracle9i.
The JDBC pack contains the OCI and Thin drivers.
Thanks alot.
best regards, John.

Hi Sree,
thanks alot for your help!
I was looking for Oracle 9i Thin driver, but could not find any!
The only I could find was Oracle 9i thin JDBC driver for Mac OS X.
and thanks again for your help.

Hi John,
WebLogic jDriver for Oracle 9i is not available for WLS5.1. Its only
available for WLS6.1SP2 and above.
I suggest you use the Oracle thin driver from Oracle to connect to the
9i
database.
when you download and install the 9i thin driver, the connection pool
can be
configured as,
weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.O9iPool=\
url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@9imachinename:port:SID,\
driver=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver,\
loginDelaySecs=1,\
initialCapacity=5,\
maxCapacity=12,\
capacityIncrement=2,\
allowShrinking=true,\
shrinkPeriodMins=15,\
refreshMinutes=12,\
props=user=o9iusr;password=o9ipwd;weblogic.oci.min_bind_size=660
You cannot use two different OCI drivers at the same time to create
Connection pools in a single server.

Hi Sree, thanks for your help... now this information is what I got.
Some data:
ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/product/8.1.7
PATH includes $ORACLE_HOME/bin
My ld library path include the oracle driver: oci815_8:$ and ORACLE_HOME/lib
As I can see is the oci815_8 in use.
weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.O8iPool=\
url=jdbc:weblogic:oracle,\

Now Can I Make Tow Connection Pools To Oracle With Different Drivers
Like Let The O8i Go To The Old oci815_8 Drivers,
And Install New Oci Drivers For The Oracle9i ??????

Hi,
I dont know exactly what driver we use, but I know that the same driver
is
in
use for bothe 8i and 9i. And I know that the driver is old, (from 2000).
The behavior is that connection duo the 9i are rollin back sometimes,
about
30%
of all transactions are rolling back.
Thats why I ve been told to use newer drivers (9i drivers).
So, yes, I see exceptions, roll back exceptions of the transactionsthat
are
trying
to connect to the database pool.
But I wonder how to do that, and how can I see exactly what driver
we
use
now?
Please help me!!!!

John,
What driver are you using to connect to 8i and 9i? What is the behavior
you
are seeing with the pool connections, when you say pool is not stable?
do
you see any exceptions/hangs ?
Also ensure that you have testConnsOnReserve=true (on the 9i pool)
so
that
the connections get recreated if they go bad.

OO4O - Oracle8i vs Oracle9i

Can the latest version of OO4O be used for both Oracle8i and Oracle9i?
Thanks

Hi
Reports is good for standard reports which are used often (daily or weekly) and 'never' change.
Disco good for ad-hoc reporting, analyzing.

Recover during systemcopy between Oracle8 and Oracle9

Hello!
This is my first question in a forum, therefore sorry for mistakes.
We perform a systemcopy from Oracle8 to Oracle9. If we use a Offline-Backup there is no problem. After the restore we migrate the databse to Oracle9 and everything is ok
Now we try to use a Online-Backup for this. The restore is no problem but the recovery of the database end with following error:

I don't think, that the Redologs are corrupt. Have anybode an idea, what should i do???
Thomas

Hello!
I don't think so. Because i got this message for every log since 89797. Every try to recover the database i got this message for the next log.
It is possible to recover a Oracle8-Databse to a Oracle9 Database during systemcopy?

XA : Oracle8 and Oracle9

I using Tuxedo8.0 ..and I need to use XA with both Oracle8 and Oracle9...
This time is using only Oracle8, Two-Phase commit, and next year we have to join
with Oracle9.
Then I would like to know Can I use XA across Oracle8 and Oracle9...
What is RM file for Oracle9?
Regards,
Yos

Hello Yos,
XA transactions can span multiple RDBMSes... There may be limitations/problems
as every RDBMS has a different implementation and hence do not work the same way.
The base rule is: You can definitely have a single XA transaction across Oracle,
Informix and DB2. So, your scenario of XA transactions across Oracle 8 and 9 databases
should work..
For RM file entry, please refer Oracle/Tuxedo documentations. Oracle 8.x RM file
entry may also work fine with Oracle 9.x. Just give it a try.

Oracle8 and oracle9i on same server?

Hello Ora-GURUs,
I have Oracle8 Release 8.0.4.0.0 - Production database running on windows2000 server. I want to install Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production database on the same server. Is it possible to have both versions running on the same server? if yes then how (just brief)?
Thanks in advance...

A few concerns
1) Oracle 8.0.4 was never supported on Windows 2000.
2) Oracle 8.0.4 was not multi-home compatible, so there is no guarantee that installing a new database version won't affect your existing install.
3) Oracle 8.0.4 was desupported about 6 and a half years ago and wasn't even the terminal patchset for the 8.0.x line. Why are you using such an ancient version of the database?
I would be grateful that a production database was even running on an operating system it was never designed for or tested on and wouldn't attempt to install anything else. I would seriously investigate ways to upgrade the 8.0.4 database at least to 8.0.6 but realistically to something that is still supported like 9.2 or even 10.2.

Oracle 8.1.5 to oracle8.1.6 upgradation

Hi
I am working paralelly on both Solaris2.7 and win NT4.0
The details are as follows
1. Liscenced versions of Oracle8.1.5 have been installed on both the systems
In order to upgrade I tried searching for the script u0801050.sql in both the systems under ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin, but it was not available
I solved this as follows on Win NT:
1. Installed oracle8.1.6 on NT in the same HOME .
2. The script was present in after this re-install.
3. I used the script(Should I have done this?)
But there is a problem with Java Upgradation now.
I started the database in the RESTRICT mode
And here is the output from the Log file
SVRMGR> @jvmu815.sql

Database link from Oracle8i to Oracle9i

Hi,
I am trying to create a database link from an oracle 8i database to connect to an oracle 9i database ... When testing the connection , I always receive an error "The Database link is not active"
Notes
1- Creating a database link that connects from the same 8i database to another 8i database succeeds. This gave me the impression that it is a compatibility problem but I am not sure.
2- I changed the initialization parameter
global_names = falseand restarted the Oracle database
3- the 2 databases are on the same domain
Did anyone pass through this problem before ??
thanks

Well, I was testing the database link via DBA studio and there was no ora error associated with the message.
A friend helped me to identify and sove the problem. here is what he did.
Lets assume that the oracle8i database called Ora8i
and the oracle9i database called Ora9i
and that the network domain name is OraTest.com
When i select * from global_name; on both databases
Ora8i database return ==> ora8i
Ora9i database return ==> Ora9i.us.oracle.com
We then execute the following statement on Ora9i database
alter database rename global_name to Ora9i.OraTest.com;
Testing the database link after that went fine.
Thanks

Migration--Bitmap to Jpeg from Oracle8 to Oracle9i

I'm having few thousand bitmap photos stored in Oracle8 database in a Long Raw column. It's taking lot of space.
I'm planning to migrate to Oracle9i. Please advise how to convert these few thousand photos from bitmap to Jpeg format in Oracle9i database.

How are you going to store the images in 9i?
My hunch is that the only way that you could convert from BMP to JPEG inside the database would be to have the data stored as interMedia image objects. I don't know for sure whether interMedia can do that conversion, but that's the only Oracle technology I can think of that could (well, unless you want to write Java or PL/SQL code that does the conversion).

Join in oracle8i and oracle9i

hi all
i am using oracle8i.
SQL> select * from employee;

Will the query which i have written in 8i equal to the following in 9i?
select employee.id,salary.id from outer salary,employee where employee.id=salary.id
and Does OUTER in 9i means Left if nothing is specified??
Any inputs will be really helpful
Thanks and Regards

Pavan,
This question is most appropriate for a SQL forum. Please move your question there. Good luck!

Oracle8i or Oracle9i Client: remote Install

Hello,
I work on intranet and I install Oracle Client remotely with VNC, executing the setup file shared in a network drive. From about a month I can't install software anymore because the setup don't start (I suppose a microsoft patch block the remote code execution). So i decide to install oracle client 8i or 9i from the web.
I'd like to know which minimum directories i have to put on the target pc to run (there) the oracle universal installer: consider that the source path is the http address of the web server containing the installation components.
Thank you very much

OK I figured this error out...I forgot that XFree86 is not installed on the remote machine!
