Query for oracle 9i and 10g on same box

HI
All,
I have oracle 9i installed on one box it has
oracle home /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0
and i am gonna install oracle 10g on different home /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0
Do I need to specify different location for OraInventory?
so what else I need to take care?
Thanks,
Vishal

So there should not be a problem if it is the same
orainventory location for both 9i and 10g right.There should be no problem.
can you throw more focus on below ?
When managing different oracle versions on the same
box you should take care of environment variables to
properly point to each ORACLE HOME and PATH, and
ensure different ports do not conflict.
For instance, you should use the Listener of the latest release on the server (in this case 10g) to services all the databases on that box 9both 9i and 10g).
When you want to startup and shutdown 9i database, you do not want to shutdown a 10g database by mistake. Hence, setting things like ORCLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID.
Also, Oracle Server make use of libraries. You do not want to mix up 9i and 10g libraries. hence take care when you set things like PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc
The same applies to all Environment variables you want to set on the server that has different oracle releases. You just need to ensure that when you logon, your variables are set correctly for the intended oracle release before you do anything.

Running Oracle 9i and 10g on same box

Hi Guys! :-)
I have a development box (Win2003) that I run one Oracle 9i home on, and I wish to install a 10g home aswell. I need to install the new Oracle 10g listener on a different port. Can someone please give me some directions / how to guide how to do that ? I'm using OUI to install.
I have tried searching this forum and Metalink, but didnt find any stuff that could help me..
I'm pretty new to Oralce, this may be a easy config matter.
Thanks
Best Regards
Orjan

Unless there is a compelling reason, I would encourage you to use one listener for ALL databases on the machine. The rule is that it needs to be the highest version
You have several options:
1) do a completely separate listener-only install into it's own home. Stop (and set to 'manual service') the 9i listener and start the 10g listener on port 1521. Re-register the 9i database using the 'alter system register' command.
2) install the listener as part of the 10g install. Stop the 9i listener and start the 10g listener on port 1521. Re-register the 9i database using the 'alter system register' command.
3) install the listener as part of the 10g install and modify the port on both the listener (see listener.ora) and the database's LOCAL_LISTENER parameter.
I prefer 1) simply because that allows you to upgrade/patch the listener totally independently from any DB version, while still leaving version -specific listeners around that can be used in an emergency.

Issue with .profile for oracle 9i and 10g

Here I have six oracle 9i databases on one box. I am going to upgrade five of them to oracle 10g and want to keep one database RCAT in oracle 9i for one or two week.
So, when I do upgrade I have to setup oracle home for 10g and also profile for oracle user for 10g (correct me if I m wrong). But now I want one database RCAT on oracle 9i. How can I take care of this.
I mean how I will handle profile and all other thing for oracle 9i and 10g at the same time.
Thanks,
Vishal

Install 10g under the same OS user as 9i, of course on a different Oracle Home. Then you configure your .profile consequently. Just as an example, this is my .bash_profile with 10g and 11g with the same oracle OS user :
[oracle@linux5 ~]$ cat .bash_profile
# .bash_profile
# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
        . ~/.bashrc
fi
export EDITOR=vi
export ORACLE_BASE=/home/oracle/base

How to install Oracle 9i in the same machine?
Regards
Mathew

Hi,
Do I have to create a seperate user (eg: oracleuser) for installing oracle 9i database software?
So at that time, by using
#usradd -u 1002 -g oinstall -G dba -d /oraeng/app/oracle/product/9/2/0 -m oracleuser
#chown -R oracleuser:oinstall /oraeng
I think the second command will change the ownership of the /oraeng direcory from 'oracle' user to 'oracleuser' user. 'oracle' user is created erlier for 10G installation

Oracle 9i and 10G professionals required

Hi All,
A company in Tanzania is looking for Oracle 9i and 10G professionals for immediate requirement. Those who are looking for change and has 4 to 5 years experience can send in your resumes to [email protected] Indians are preffered. Mention "ORJOB#040820081411" in the subject.
Kindly send in your resume as early as possible.
Thank you.

You can try setting the SGA to a low value and bring up both the databases. I don't think it should be too slow provided you are not running other windows programs.
If you are really interested in trying out new products you can also explore the option of installing VMware, creating virtual machines & installing Linux, and then playing with the different Oracle products. Doing this will at least keep your main windows operating system clean.

Query using Materalized view in oracle 9i and 10g

Hello
There are snapshots (materialized view) used in my application. We have recently migrated from 9i to 10g release 2 database.
After migration i have observed explain plan of query which is using materialized view and i found in 9i oracle treating materalized view as table. In 10g oracle is considerting it as MVIEW only (MAT_VIEW ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID). However in 10g cost of query which is using materialized view is much higher than 9i. And execution time is also random.
Can anbody pls. expalin diff. of materalized view access in oracle 9i and 10g.
Thanks

can you post your query with explain plan for both 9i version and 10g version.
Thanks,
karthick.

Can we locate oracle 9i and 10g databases in same PC

hi all
wish U happy new year...
I have installed oracle 9i and 10g database ..but 10g database is not working it says TNS protocol adapter error or invalied username password...I stpeed the 9i services and listner in the 9i home...but 10g database is not working.9i and 10g databases are in two different partitions....
I want to know is it possible to running 9i and 190g database in same PC...if it's possible pls can you give me a solution for my problem
regards
Buddhike

when I was trying to up the database it is looking for another listener
and massage coming listener is not running...Not clear. The database does not look for a listener, maybe you got that error when trying to connect ?
Do you have a listener 10g service ? Did you start it ? If not, please try the following :
C:\> set ORACLE_HOME=<Your 10g Home>
C:\> set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin;%PATH%
C:\> lsnrctl start
wait up to a minute, then execute
C:\> lsnrctl status
and post the result.

Data Replication between Oracle 9i and 10g

Hello,
I have a question regarding possible Replication Models between Oracle 9i and 10g. Does anybody know a possible way to syncronize the schema data between a 9i and 10g database in realtime?
If yes can you please post perhaps a link with a kind of how to?
Many thanks to all,
Bob...

You can read this metalink note 370850.1 - there are bit more ways of replication discussed.
Yes, platforms can be different, but recomendation is to use the same platform for both databases.

9i and 10g on same host

Hi folks,
i am just trying to run 9i and 10g on same host (sun solaris 5.9)
I created 2 different oracle users on os level for installation and management of those 2 instances.
There is no problem with it, but i am just curious. would it be better to run them both with the same account?
or is it better to have 2 separete accounts for each of them?
just want to hear expert's opinion about this, Thanks in advance.

or is it better to have 2 separete accounts for each of them?It depends on Your needs. Both ways are ok. Easier is to manage if both oracle homes are under the same account, because then it's easier to upgrade database, maybe in future You will want just one oracle home and so on.
But if for example You are running on the same machine test and dev envs, then it's somewhat normal to separete and then there is no dependency between envs and You can for example upgrade dev without touching test (that can be achieved with simple 2 different oracle_homes, but with two different users as well).

Oracle 9i and 10g in one computer

Could I install oracle 10g in computer where 9i is instaled. I want that both oracle is instal and test oracle 9i and 10g. Could I run oracle database 9i and 10g together and I use both of the database?
Thanks for answer.
Rafal Dmitrowski

I would also suggest caution if you have a Windows server. While it is certainly possible to have both running, there are some issues with separate 9i and 10g homes on a Windows machine, things like the Oracle Home Selector doesn't work with 10g Oracle Homes. I wouldn't be overly concerned if you are dealing with development laptops, but I would make sure to do some testing before installing 10g on a production server with 9i already installed.

How SMON coalesces free space in oracle 9i and 10g

how SMON coalesces free space in oracle 9i and 10g?
Is it doing same as it was behaving in oracle 7 like looking through free extent table every five minutes (sys.fet$) to see if there are any adjacent free extents that can be coalesced into a single extent, and on every 25th cycle (i.e. every two hours and five minutes) it looks at the segment table (sys.seg$) to see if there are any temporary segments that need to be eliminated, as explained by jonathan lewis?
what are extent and segment tables available in oracle 9i and 10g like sys.fet$ and sys.seg$ in oracle7?

10.1.0.5 Patch for Oracle Application Server 10g Release 1

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know what is the patch number for 10.1.0.5 Patch for Oracle Application Server 10g Release 1?
This is a Oracle Application Server and not Oracle Database server.
I tried searching on Metalink but not able to find it.
Thanks in advance!
Avinash.

10.1.0.5 is not a version number for an OAS. It is only a version number for RDBMS.
If you are running OAS 10.1.2.x with the Identity Managmenet/SSO (OID Server), & elected to have it install the Metadata Repository database for you, this was a RDBMS release below 10.1.0.5. The OAS patch to 10.1.2.2 or 10.1.2.3 required the RDMBS be updated to 10.1.0.5 first. This is the standard 10.1.0.5 update for your platform.
use Advanced Search on Metalink
To find the OAS 10.1.2.2 or 10.1.2.3 patch set, search for Oracle Fusion Middleware Server. Release 10.1.2.2 and 10.1.2.3. Look for the decriptions like "PLACEHOLDER BUG FOR AS/DS 10.1.2.3 PATCHSET RELEASE" OR "PLACEHOLDER BUG FOR AS/DS 10G R2 PATCH SET 2 10.1.2.2"
To find the RDBMS 10.1.0.5 patch, search for RDBMS Server, Release 10.1.0.5. Look for the Description containing something like "10.1.0.5 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER"
The patch number is different per platform, so I can't tell you the exact #s without more info (OS)
