Out of place upgrade of ebs 12.1.3 database

Hi,
I am trying out of place upgrade from 11.1.0 to 11.2.0 of my ebs database. The OS is RHEL. So far I have done as follows:
un utlu112i.sql on the source (copy it from the 11.2.0 home)
Act on the recommendations of utlu112i.sql.
Take rman backup of the source db.
Copy the backup to the target server.
Copy pfile.
Copy passwordfile if it is there on the source.
On the target
Edit the pfile.
Restore controlfile.
Restore and recover the database.
Mount the database.
Spool upgrade_info.log
Alter database open resetlogs upgrade;
Drop old tempfiles and create new ones.
Set echo on
@?/rdbms/admin/catupgrd.sql
Check the log files for any errors.
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catuppst.sql;
Check for any errors
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql;
$ sqlplus / as sysdba
sql> alter session set nls_language='American';
sql> @dbupgdiag.sql
sql> exit
run adconfig.sh contextfile=<contextfile> at db tier.
Shut down listener and database and restart to load the new env.
Removed apps folder and copied source apps folder.
Removed inst folder contents.
Now I am not sure about the next step. Any suggestions?
Regards,
Vinod

Hi Vinod,
That is not the case usually, This what usually the output when you run the retrieve command (from my test machine):

I would suggest you do the following.
Assuming there are no patches and no binary changes done on the Source instance.
1. Run a preclone on Apps Tier
2. Copy the source $COMMON_TOP/clone to target $COMMON_TOP/clone
3. Try retrieving the apps context file as suggested above.
Hope this works!

Document for Out of Place Upgrade of ebs database

Hi,
Can someone point out to me a document which gives steps for out of place upgrade of ebs 12.1.3 database from 11.1.0 to 11.2.0.3 ? I tried it myself and it went well but I am still not sure whether something is still missing because there are still 346 invalid objects in the db. Here are the steps I have followed:
On the source:
   Run adpreclone
2.       Run utlu112i.sql (copy it from the 11.2.0 home)
          Act on the recommendations of utlu112i.sql.
          Backup the source db and the apps folder
          Copy the backup to the target server.
6.       Copy pfile.
7.
On the target:
     install the 11.2.0.3 software
     apply required patches
             Restore and recover the database.
             run catupgrd.sql
             run catuppst.sql;
             run utlrp.sql;
             run dbupgdiag.sql
             run adconfig.sh contextfile=<contextfile> at db tier.
             Shut down listener and database and restart to load the new env.
             restored apps folder (backup of source)
             run adcfgclone.pl appsTier
             run autoconfig.
          Regards,
          Vinod

Hi Vinod,
Please find some out of place upgrade links:
UPGRADE 11.1.0.7 DATABASE TO 11.2.0.3 DATABASE WITH R12.1.3
Please also see the forum as it is been discussed several times.
BTW, with respect to your invalid objects did you try recompiling the objects using:
1. adadmin > Compile apps schema
2. connected as sysdba > run @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
Best Regards

Out-of-place upgrade to 11.2.0.4 (from 11.2.0.3); how does it affect certain items?

Hi All,
I've never done a db patch set update, and from what I've read today, I will need to do a full installation of 11.2.0.4 to have this patch set applied.
This sounds scary and being a rookie Oracle DBA, what does this mean to my existing Oracle Database installation (Oracle 11GR2 on Windows Server 2008R2)?
If I do an out-of-place upgrade (Oracle recommended), and create a new home, what will happen to the existing schemas/etc?
My application is configured to connect to SERVERA, SID=123 so when I install a new home, etc, does this change anything? I've read I need to modify the tnsnames files in my new home to be similar to my current tnsnames file..
Basically, I want to upgrade to patchset 11.2.0.4 b/c it's supposed to address a bug I have, but I want to be able to keep the 'settings' the same for the end users/applications (SERVERA, SID=123).
Thanks in advance

You have to remember that the database software/binaries are separate from the database itself. Typically, you first install the software (like you did for 11.2.0.3) and then create a database. Best practice states that the location of the database files should be outside/different then the location of the binaries.
When you install your new 11.2.0.4 in a new location, that is all that you are doing - the install does not affect the existing database. Once the 11.2.0.4 software is installed, you can upgrade the database by following the steps in the upgrade guide (the database files stay where they are, but the database gets upgraded from 11.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.4) and when the upgrade is completed successfully, the old (11.2.0.3) binaries can be de-installed at leisure.

11.1.1.5 out-of-place upgrade how to continue the compositeIds from old env

Hi,
We are planning to upgrade SOA 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.1.5. Don't want to do an inplace upgrade but want to do out-of-place upgrade i.e. want to install 11.1.1.5 from fresh and move over the composites to new environment so atleast will have a back environment. Have question how can we make sure in 11.1.1.5 we start the composite_ids and instance_ids from where it left off in 11.1.1.3 as we are using those compositeIds and instanceIds in our backend system. So need to make sure when we move over to 11.1.1.5 none of our compositeIds and Instance Ids are repeated. Any idea how to have this done.
Thanks

E.8 Unlocking the Existing Oracle Clusterware Installation
After upgrade from previous releases, if you want to deinstall the previous release Oracle Grid Infrastructure Grid home, then you must first change the permission and ownership of the previous release Grid home. Log in as root, and change the permission and ownership of the previous release Grid home using the following command syntax, where oldGH is the previous release Grid home, swowner is the Oracle Grid Infrastructure installation owner, and oldGHParent is the parent directory of the previous release Grid home:
#chmod -R 755 oldGH
#chown -R swowner oldGH
#chown swowner oldGHParent
For example:
#chmod -R 755 /u01/app/11.1.0.6/grid
#chown -R grid /u01/app/11.1.0.6/grid
#chown grid /u01/app/11.1.0.6

Out-of-Place Upgrade. What Happens to.......

Hi Folks
I have some questions for those of you that have installed 11g on Windows OS before I get into the installation itself
I currently have 11.2.0.3 installed and I want to install 11.2.0.4
There are two options:
1. In-Place Upgrade (which I have always done with my Oracle10g databases and servers)
2. Out-of-Place Upgrade (which I have never done)
My questions refer to option 2
My current oracle home is
E:\App\Oracle\
E:\App\Oracle\product\11.2.0.3\dbhome1
I want to install into 11.2.0.4
E:\App\Oracle\
E:\App\Oracle\product\11.2.0.4\dbhome1
1. What happens to all the folder and files under E:\App\Oracle ?
i.e.
\admin
\cfgtools
\checlpoints
\diag
etc
Do they get over written ?
Will it not install because it already exists ?
Do I have to create a new location then ?
2. I have services already configured for 11.2.0.3
How do the new services for 11.2.0.4 get created if they already exist for 11.2.0.3
11.2.0.3
i.e. Listener = OracleOraDb11g_home1TNSlistner
and all other oracle services that get created at install time
For my Database service do I have to delete it and re-create it with ORADIM ?
Thanks
Jim

I have no experience with Windows - but your approach is correct. The contents of those directories will not be overwritten - any new files will be added to those directories. As always, take a full backup of the existing home before installing a new home - and test all of these processes/steps on a test server (and validate) before touching production servers.
As far as services, you will have to de-register and re-register using ORADIM - see Step 7 in MOS Doc 1276368.1

In-place upgrade of Enterprise Manager for RAC databases is not supported

upgrading 2 node RAC from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 64 bit. I got the following:
In-place upgrade of Enterprise Manager for RAC databases is not supported in this release
Now I cannot log in to the database control as sys with sysdba role . I get "invalid username/password" error
I can login as a dba user
I also get a java error after I log in, some thing about class not found, but then I'm in and I can do everything that I try, although I haven't tried scheduling a backup yet
Can I upgrade EM to 10.2.0.3?
If so, how?

On the patchset readme...
11.3 Upgrade of Oracle Enterprise Manager Not Supported
When you start Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant to upgrade 10.2.0.1 database to 10.2.0.3 patch set, the following error occurs:
Inplace upgrade of Enterprise Manager is not supported for RAC databases is not supported in this release
Workaround:
Ignore warning.
If you drop and recreate the EM repository?
1). emca -deconfig dbcontrol db repos drop
2). emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
Be careful, doing this put the database on QUIESCE mode.

Out-of-place upgrade going wrong

Trying to work through an upgrade from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3 on a dev box, prefereably without major downtime, 64-bit Linux. Since I cannot shutdown existing listeners or database, the approach is perhaps a bit non-standard
<li>I've got the 11.2.0.3 software unzipped</li>
<li>I've created directories for a new ORACLE_BASE</li>
<li>I've exported ORACLE_BASE=/new/directory/structure</li>
<li>I've then launched database/runInstaller from the unzipped location and performed a painless software-only installation</li>
I'm now slightly confused about the next bit, bearing in mind I'm trying to do this without any downtime on the existing 11.2.0.1 database.
What I'd like to do is to get a copy of the existing database opened and running from the 11.2.0.3 home, whilst the existing 11.2.0.1 db continues on as it is.
<li>So I've set a new ORACLE_SID</li>
<li>I've copied across the orapw and init.ora from the old O_H to the new, renaming them appropriately</li>
<li>I've edited the init.ora so that path-specific parameters all now take the new O_H directory structure</li>
<li>I've then put the entire existing database into hot backup mode and copied it to the new O_H structure</li>
Because so little is being done on the original database I appear to have got away with copying online redo logs, because I was able to startup mount; issue lots of 'alter database rename file...' commands so the new file locations are picked up; recover database; alter database open upgrade.
What I am now struggling with is how to actually upgrade the freshly-opened new database. If I run dbua, it says 'database isn't mounted', whether the new db copy is in mount or open upgrade mode. If I run @catupgrd.sql, it seems to complete without a problem, leaving STATUS of V$INSTANCE at OPEN MIGRATE. But when I run the @utlu112s.sql command, I get this:

(I am following http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e23633/upgrade.htm#i1011372 and have checked Upgrade from 10203 to 10204 among others)

I think that (partially, as it turns out) de-installing unlicensed components on the original database may have caused this problem.
I tried doing a data pump export of the original database, and it failed with an error I tracked down in Metalink (I'm sorry, I didn't record the specifics). Turned out there were four tables left behind from OWB and a broken package related to Spatial. I dropped those, and the export worked.
But instead of using that export, I tried my hot copy technique again.. and this time it worked.
So I guess the moral of the story is to ensure your source database is 100% functional before you try messing around with any of this stuff.
Edited by: Catfive Lander on Jan 24, 2013 10:01 PM
Have remembered one of the specifics: Metalink 1328829.1 (OLAP removal leaves behind DBMS_CUBE_EXP in an invalid state). There was one other similar issue, but I still don't remember the details on that.

Upgrade 11.2 to 11.2.0.2 out of place

Hi
Im trying to upgrade from 11.2.0.1.0 to 11.2.0.2 is the following bug fix needed ? Im not doing the in place upgrade.. Im doing out of place upgrade?
– Patch the release 11.2.0.1 Oracle Grid Infrastructure home with the 9413827 and 9706490 patches."
Bug 10036834 Linux Platforms: Patches not found upgrading Grid Infrastructure from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2

Hi,
To clarify:
To upgrade existing 11.2.0.1 Oracle Grid Infrastructure installations to Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11.2.0.2, you must first do at least one of the following:
* Patch the release 11.2.0.1 Oracle Grid Infrastructure home with the 9413827 and 9706490 patches.
* Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 1 (GI PSU1) or Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 2 (GI PSU2).
Oracle Clusterware and Oracle ASM upgrades are always out-of-place upgrades. With 11g release 2 (11.2), you cannot perform an in-place upgrade of Oracle Clusterware and Oracle ASM to existing homes.source: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e17212/procstop.htm#BABEIBEE

How to do in-place-upgrades with the new patch sets (11.2.0.2.0)?

Hello,
Oracle has released the new patch set 11.2.0.2.0 for Oracle Database whose installation deviates from the previous patch set instructions. Are there any new deployment procedures available to do an in-place upgrade? We have a lot (about 100) of development databases here, most of them do not have enough hard disk space to do an out-of-place upgrade, so the need for updated deployment procedures is definetely there.
Best regards,
Andreas

Hello Hemss,
I am trying to do an in-place-upgrade (replacing the old Oracle software completely because our test servers have only very little space). When you want to perform an out-of-place upgrade, things are more simple, but you need the disk space for a new Oracle home (about 6 GB on Linux-x64 in my case). Essentially, the steps are:
1. You can keep the production database online during the next steps
2. Install the new 11.2.0.2.0 into a new Oracle Home (an Oracle software directory which does not exist yet). Only install the software.
3. Apply any post-11.2.0.2.0 patches if available and needed
4. Schedule a maintenance window with your users
5. Put the original database(s) in MOUNT mode (SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE followed by STARTUP MOUNT)
6. Perform a FULL backup of both database and old Oracle home, just to be on the safe side.
7. Set your enviromnent: ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_BASE should point to your NEW installation, ORACLE_SID to your production database.
8. Start netca to create a new LISTENER for your new software installation (you might want to use a different port than your previous installation in case you need to run both at the same time)
9. Start dbua from the new Oracle Home and follow the on-screen instructions. You can either create an updated copy of the database (needs more disk space but you can easily switch back to your orginal DB), or you change the database to fit your new Oracle version (needs less space, but you need to run the scripts to downgrade to the old release if you need to go back)
So, as long as you have plenty of disk space, things are not that difficult at all. Of course, you should always read the release notes and the full installation guides for the new version because there might be new features or behaviours that affect your database. It is also highly advisable to test this on a completely different machine first.
You can find the complete upgrade guide here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17222/toc.htm

Can I performa an In Place upgrade for 11gR2

Hi all,
I goofed a bit, I downloaded and installed 11g R2 (11.2.0.1.0) and installed it. After installation I went looking for the patchsets. Then I learned that as of 11.2.0.2 these are not patchsets, per se, but full installs. (I'll know now to log onto My Oracle Support first!)
I've read the various threads hear regarding upgrades for 11g and none are quite the same - trying not to recover existing discussions.
Because I'm installing this as a backbone for Windchill (a CAD file data vault), and I will allow the Windchill installer to create my database and so my installation was software only. The Upgrade Guide e23633 and other documents advise against in-place upgrades. This is a Single-Instance Oracle database with no database created yet, Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition, x64.
In this forum and others as well as various blogs, have threads and articles on the relative difficulties people have had de-installing 11g.
Would you recommend I do an in-place Upgrade to get this to 11.2.0.3.0 or use the Oracle De-install Utility (11.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64) and actually start from scratch installing 11.2.0.3.0?
(I'm still downloading the 7! zip archives for Patchset 3, so I have a moment before I have to make this decision!)
Thank you,
PT

Thank you for the reply Srini, but it really didn't answer my question.
I've already been through the Upgrade Guide, that's what lead me to post my question for advice and suggestions. My question is, was it really necessary to perform the Out-of-Place Upgrade - the preferred method - when I had only installed "software only" of 11.2.0.1.0 and had no database created to upgrade? Save the time by simply an In-Place because I was already software only.
I fully understand reasons for and have practiced the preferred out-of-place upgrade. The fault tolerant undisturbed source database is the only way to go - when there is an actual database.
Unless someone advises against it, I'm going to simply run the 11.2.0.1 De-Installation Utility first, rather than upgrade in place. Then install back in the same base path the 11.2.0.3 version was. Not that it matters if it is in the same base path or not, but I'll de-install ~0.1 anyway, why not do it first since I have no database to upgrade.
Cheers,
PT

Out place upgrade from 11.1.1.4 to 11.1.2.2. Please suggest.

We are planning to do an out place upgrade. We are on 11.1.1.4 right now. And the plan we have come up with is, is to install 11.1.1.4 on new server, perform lcm migartion, and then upgrade 11.1.1.4 to 11.1.2.2. Is there anything wrong or is there a better approach to the one we are taking? Please suggest.
Thanks,
Tej.

You can upgrade directly from 11.1.1.4 to 11.1.2.2 and they don't have to be installed on the same server.
Everything is in the documentation - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_install_1112200/launch.html
If still is not clear then it may be worth getting someone in to discuss your upgrade options.
Cheers

"Windows 8.1 installation has failed" - in-place upgrade to Windows 8.1 U1

I am unable to upgrade my toshiba laptop that has Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 U1. I am getting an error message at 37% or 39% through the upgrade process and am met with an error message similar to this:
Ignore the 96%, but this is the same exact error message I am getting each time I try to do an in-place upgrade of Windows 8.1 U1 Pro.
I am currently running Windows 8 Pro on my laptop. I have the .cbs log file contents here:
http://pastebin.com/52QpQzZA
I really would like to do an in-place upgrade and not have to re-configure all the apps and their settings again. What could be causing this failure?

I have seem to have figured out the problem after some trial and error.
First, I followed another user's solution about turning off Windows Update service before I performed the Windows 8.1 Upgrade via USB flash drive.
Second, my mistake here was I was upgrading Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 U1. When I tried upgrading Windows 8 to
Windows 8.1, it finally worked without issue.
Either I was upgrading two versions ahead that made the Windows Upgrade process fail each time or it had something to do with Windows Update service being on during the upgrade process.
It has completed without failure!
Thank you for your replies!

Hi,
When you do in place upgrade like you mentioned there is no need to do any backup restore.
1. You first run SQL Server 2014 upgrade advisor. and IF upgrade advisor does not points out any breaking chnages you can proceed with inplace upgrade
2. You run SQL Server 2014 setup and on windows which pops up select Upgrade from SQl server 2012 to SQL server 2014.
3. Make sure you remove all breaking changes before doing inplace upgrade. After upgrade is successful you would see all system and user databases upgraded to 2014.
4. Make sure you have SQL server 2012 SP1 installed before you perform inplace upgrade
Please refer to
SQL Server 2014 upgrade
