Problem to create database with RAC 10g with Oracle Standard Edition

I install CRS (Cluster Ready Services), and then install Oracle 10g database. Also, I install patches 10.1.0.4. When I create database with ASM storage give me a error to create files database.
Any idea?
Thanks
Edu AlcaÃ±iz

You were right.
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/html/B14203_05/intro.htm#sthref44
under the section
"1.3 Configuration Tasks for Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Real Application Clusters"
"... If you use RAC on Oracle Database 10g Standard Edition, then you must use ASM."
Thanks, problem solved.

Problem when creating Database with Database, OS and hardware Configuraiton

Problem when creating Database:
There are two problems, which I faced during creation of database. When creating database with Oracle Database Assistant. One when creating pre tuned database from CD. And second when creating customized database giving options your self.
Problem # 1:
When creating pre tuned database from CD. The process of creating Database is 90 % complete and is at step # 3 Initializing Database. It gives error ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel.
I searched following oracle help for this problem.
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
Cause: An unexpected end-of-file was processed on the communication channel. The problem could not be handled by the Net8, two-task software. This message could occur if the shadow two-task process associated with a Net8 connect has terminated abnormally, or if there is a physical failure of the interprocess communication vehicle, that is, the network or server machine went down.
Action: If this message occurs during a connection attempt, check the setup files for the appropriate Net8 driver and confirm Net8 software is correctly installed on the server. If the message occurs after a connection is well established, and the error is not due to a physical failure, check if a trace file was generated on the server at failure time. Existence of a trace file may suggest an Oracle internal error that requires the assistance of customer support.
Conclusion:
What I conceive from this problem and the help available is that, I have to install NET8 again. But I am not sure about the solution, please tell me whether I am rite or not.
Problem # 2:
When creating database with custom option. The process of creating Database is 2 % complete and is at step # 2 Creating Database Files. It gives error ORA-12571: TNS:packet writer failure.
I searched following oracle help for this problem.
ORA-12571: TNS:packet writer failure
Cause: An error occurred during a data send.
Action: Not normally visible to the user. For further details, turn on tracing and re-execute the operation. If error persists, contact Worldwide Customer Support.
Conclusion:
What I conceive from this problem and the help available is that, I have to install NET8 again. But I am not sure about the solution, please tell me whether I am rite or not.

Dont't worry about that. Before you
create a table(or view), it is wise to
drop the table(or view) with the same name.
If the name doesn't exist, of course there
is an error message. See the following script:
-------------------begin-----------
drop table students cascade constraints;
create table students (
sid varchar2(5),
fname varchar2(20),
lname varchar2(20) not null,
minit char,
primary key (sid));

Standby Database with Oracle Standard Edition

Hi,
my customer wants to create a standby database for his production database (Oracle Standard Edition 11g R2 @ Windows 2008 R2 64 Bit). Now has somebody a proof-of-concept which explains shortly the concept and how to achieve it.
Many thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Martin

Hi
We have the following options :
1. Oracle Enterprise Edition (EE) - Will have automatically 'Oracle DataGuard' option. No extra license for Oracle DataGuard. We have to purchase Oracle EE for both the sites.
2. Oracle Standard Edition (SE) - Will not have 'Oracle DataGuard' option. So we can't implement Standby database.
3. Oracle Standard Edition (SE) - Will not have 'Oracle DataGuard' option. If you want to implement disaster recovery site we have to purchase Oracle GoldenGate for both the sites. But we have to Oracle GoldenGate license for both the sites
Thanks

Oracle Standard Edition databases are based on a maximum number of sockets

Can someone explain this further?
I need install Database in RAC.
I have:
1. Named User Plus Licenses.
2. Oracle standard Edition Database.
3. Two servers with 2 processors Dual Core 64-bit Intel® Xeon® Processor 7140M.
4. Each server has 4 sockets, 2 are occupied and 2 are unoccupied.
My question is:
I need upgrade Oracle Enterprise edition database because I will have 8 socket, although only will use 4 sockets.
I need more information on these sockets, specially in Database SE, User Named plus and multi-chip
processors.
I have contacted Oracle Sales and they/the sales person also do not have
these information.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Carl

Try reading through http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/databaselicensing.pdf, and then http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/sig.pdf (page 11) - also pass those URLs to your Oracle sales guy and ask for clarification.
Note that any answers you get here will be quite useless in a court of law, if you and Oracle decide to have different opinions. So it is important you get an answer from Oracle - in writing.

Problem while Creating Database in 10g

Its very urgent.. Please Help..!!
After installing 10g (Standard Edition) on Windows 2000 Server, I started creating database through Database Configuration Assistant.
Instead of Oracle Home path, different path is specified for Database files.
In 'Step 11 of 12' of the 'Database Configuration Assistant' I specified the 4 new table spaces to create with respective memory sizes.
In 'Step 12' I selected 'Create a Database' and clicked 'Finish' button.
After 7% of the Database creation progress bar, it is giving the following error:
"ORA: 01092 ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced"
And asking for Abort..
What could be the problem. Is it problem with installation or any other services to be started.
After 10g installation I restarted my system.
If required I'll provide some more information.
Its very urgent...
Thanks & Regards

Problems with RAC installation with Windows 2000 Advanced Server

Hello,
I've two servers in cluster mode with W2K Advanced Server, and a RAID-5 array of 4 disks shared by both of them. My problem is that I've installed The Cluster Service of Windows in order to have an active/passive configuration of my servers, because I have a common directory structure that is accessed by the PC's of the LAN.
By another hand, I want to install Oracle Real Application Cluster to manage my Oracle database but after create the extended partition and the logical drives when I execute the file \preinstallation_rac\clustersetup\clustersetup.exe to create the cluster, when I select the option Create a cluster the following error message appears me:
"Any disk Oracle partition has been found. Stop this wizard, create an Oracle partition and try it
again."
I'd like to know if it's possible to have the Service Cluster of Windows 2k and the Oracle clusterware?¿ Altough before begining the installation I've stopped my Cluster Service as documentation suggests. If somebody knows what it's happening to me I'd be really very grateful.
Thanks in advance,
Isabel

Hello Joel,
I've already read all documentation provided by Oracle about Real Application Clusters
and I've not found anything to solve my problem. Certainly I want to use OCFS but when I
try to execute preinstall_rac\clustersetup.exe to install CFS the error appear and I can't
continue with RAC installation.
Besides I've tried command "lsnodes -v" and got :
Could not load CM.dll
Could not initialize cluster
And when I've tried to run "clustercheck" I've got :
** Copy File: Create Directory failed - Error 183
** Directory = \\192.168.1.111\Cy$\Temp\opsm
Created directory \\192.168.1.112\Cy$\Temp\opsm
Could not copy file to other nodes [error = 183]
I've read metalink Note 186130.1 Clustercheck Fails with Windows Error 183 and the only
proof I haven't done is get the clustercheck.exe release1(9.0.1).
Any suggestion will be very appreciated.Thanks,
Isabel

Problems in creating Materialized View from 10g R2 to 11g

Hi,
We have two databases in 10g Release 2. These databases are on two different servers and we use
Materialized views to replicate data between these servers. We are currently using 64 bit version of
oracle 10g release 2 for LINUX.
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64 bit Production
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
CORE 10.2.0.1.0 Production
TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
We use CENTOS 5 - 64 bit edition
We upgraded one of the databases to 11g (We exported the data from old database and
imported it in new database) . Then we tried to create a Materialized view with incremental refresh
on it where the base table is in the second Oracle 10g database.
The problem is that it is not letting us create the view with FAST Refresh. It kept on giving ORA-12028
error. We tried different remedies suggested on forums like creating a view with ROWID, but still it
continued giving us the same error. We also synchronized the characterset of Oracle 10g and Oracle 11g
installations but still it did not work.
Our base table size is pretty large (over 10 Million records) and if we do a full refresh, it takes hours to
refresh it.
Without incremental refresh, we will not be able to fucntion, and to upgrade both database simultaneously
we will need a large down-time which also we can not afford.
Please advise what should we do.
Best Regards

Hello,
Yesterday I met the same problem and very sad about this, however, my story is much more complicated (I think so).
I have 6 databases:
2 - 11g
2 - 10g
2 - 9i
Every database of each release has different characterset(UTF8 and AL16UTF16).
I am trying to create Materialized view with FAST REFRESH on Oracle 11g, when master tables are located on 10g database and 9i database.
Materialized view, which points to 9i database, was successfully created.
Materialized view, which points to 10g database, gets ORA-12028
Like you, I tried many notes from METALINK and thought at the begining that the problem is my characterset. But, when the materialized views were successfully built on Oracle 9i database, I understood that the problem is something else.
Did you find the actual reason why this issue does not work??
Thanks,
Alex

How to restore a single instance database to RAC (10g) using RMAN ?

Hi all,
I have a single instance database configured using file system in a unique server, so now I need to restore this database using RMAN to a new RAC environment with two nodes and ASM also.
Does anyone can help with this documentation or a link about any information about this restore using rman ?
I tryied found on metalink but threres isn´t this specific case. Only how to convert single instance to 10g RAC, but without how to use with rman information.
System: Windows 2003
Oracle 10g R2
Thanks.

In essense you are really doing nothing more than restoring a backup on a new host. If you want a blow by blow detail of how to accomplish it take at http://www.oracledistilled.com/oracle-database/restore-database-to-another-host-using-rman
In order to write the files to the ASM Disk groups you will use the SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE in your restore script. You will also need to create the ORACLE_BASE/admin/<DBSID> structure on all of node. Once you get the database completely restore you will need to edit the SPFILE to include the proper value for the CLUSTER* parameters and each the node specific parameters. Sorry that it is kind of higher level than what you are probably looking for but the link above and what I put here should get you were want to go.

Problem when creating Database:

There are two problems, which I faced during creation of database. When creating database with Oracle Database Assistant. One when creating pre tuned database from CD. And second when creating customized database giving options your self.
Problem # 1:
When creating pre tuned database from CD. The process of creating Database is 90 % complete and is at step # 3 Initializing Database. It gives error ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel.
I searched following oracle help for this problem.
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
Cause: An unexpected end-of-file was processed on the communication channel. The problem could not be handled by the Net8, two-task software. This message could occur if the shadow two-task process associated with a Net8 connect has terminated abnormally, or if there is a physical failure of the interprocess communication vehicle, that is, the network or server machine went down.
Action: If this message occurs during a connection attempt, check the setup files for the appropriate Net8 driver and confirm Net8 software is correctly installed on the server. If the message occurs after a connection is well established, and the error is not due to a physical failure, check if a trace file was generated on the server at failure time. Existence of a trace file may suggest an Oracle internal error that requires the assistance of customer support.
Conclusion:
What I conceive from this problem and the help available is that, I have to install NET8 again. But I am not sure about the solution, please tell me whether I am rite or not.
Problem # 2:
When creating database with custom option. The process of creating Database is 2 % complete and is at step # 2 Creating Database Files. It gives error ORA-12571: TNS:packet writer failure.
I searched following oracle help for this problem.
ORA-12571: TNS:packet writer failure
Cause: An error occurred during a data send.
Action: Not normally visible to the user. For further details, turn on tracing and re-execute the operation. If error persists, contact Worldwide Customer Support.
Conclusion:
What I conceive from this problem and the help available is that, I have to install NET8 again. But I am not sure about the solution, please tell me whether I am rite or not.

Oracle 8iEE problem in creating database

When installing Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition for Linux slakware there is a problem of creating the database . while installing if we choose the option of creating the database it hangs at that point .
Although if we skip the creation of the database it shows that the installation is complete . later when we use dbassist it hangs after displaying few file names last one being for CreateWizardMain.
we tried using response files, silent mode also but the computer hangs at that point.
We tried svrmgrl but in that it is displaying an error message for cannot open parameter file with the name that was provided in response file .
Any Suggestions?

I spend 2 days on resolving this problem.
You should make two links:
ln -s /bin/free /usr/bin/free
ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk
because dbassist looking for this programs.
This is help me, and i think this help you.
greet.
