Regarding connection to target database

hi guys
i want to create my dr database(standby)
the sys password of target database is pcc$111 and db name is pccdb and tw instances are pccdb1 pccdb2
the database name of standby database is pccdb and instances are scc1 scc2
now when i am giving command as
$rman target sys/pcc$111@pccdb1 auxiliary /
it gives error
00554--initialisation of internal recovery manager package failed
rman -01017 invalid username/password
another way i am doing is
$rman target pccdb1 auxiliary /
rman>duplicate target database for standby;
rman--05502-target database must be mounted when issuing duplicate command
so please clear is in this way it is connecting to target database and my target database is open

You didn't give your exact release of Oracle, but with some releases there are issues with case sensitive passwords for privileged connections. This can be related to whether you used the ignorecase switch when you created your password files.

Unable to connect my target database

I am trying to create a clone of my database named proddb using my production RMNA backup,
so when i export ORACLE_SID=proddb
and then try to connect to my rman using
rman target /
its showing connected to target database clonedb
i have checked the servicxes and there are no services named clonedb and their is no entry in my tnsnames or listner as clonedb......

this is the output which i am getting.......Your target/source/Production database should be in OPEN status & your new/clone/auxiliary instance should be in started/not mounted status.
You have to connect as below
$rman target sys/*****@prod auxiliary /
Then target will be production, you have to export SID of auxiliary and test the TNS connectivity to primary.

Trying to connect to target database...ORA-01994: GRANT failed: password

I am trying to connect to a target database which on linux from a catalog database which is on Windows. I was initially having problems with our DEV database but eventually got it working. Now I have to register the QA database and I'm running into the same problems. Below is a list og things that I have tried:

2. So I went to the target database (FPRCQA) and I checked the following:
SYS@FPRCQA> select * from v$pwfile_users;
no rows selected
SYS@FPRCQA> grant sysdba to sys;
grant sysdba to sys
ERROR at line 1:

3. Then I checked the passwordfile
SYS@FPRCQA> show parameter pass

4. Then I created a passwordfile in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs because it did not exist.

5. Then I tried again to grant sysdba to sys and it gave me the same error as before.
ALSO, I cannot connect to the the target database from the catalog database through sqlplus...as I get the same error of insufficient privs:

Connections to target databases and directories

Hi All,
I'm creating a few custom provisioning connectors to databases and directories using the GTC framework -- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10391_01/doc.910/e10360/custom_prov.htm#Toc153968045.
I'm using the initialize() method in the Transport Provider to do a few things including establishing a connection to the target system. The sendData() is used to actually update the target.
Unfortunately, every time a task in the process definition is called, a new instance of the Transport Provider is created, which means the initialize() method will be called. This becomes an issue when you have a huge number of users being updated in OIM because for each user at least one new connection will be created and destroyed and creating new connections is generally an expensive operation.
So I'm wondering if there's any way to keep a persistent class within OIM that would hold the connection to the target system so it wouldn't have to be recreated with every change.
Thanks

If you do not perform the full list of tasks for every action, then you will need to bulk load the users. For OIM, every instance of a task runs independent of other tasks. So if you have 500 new users being onboarded, you will get 500 instances of the Create User. You cannot change this.
If you want to customize the connector, you could possibly create a JDBC connection pool to be used instead but then you are on your own for the custom coding and everything.

You can try like this

or set ORACLE_SID=DBNAME
then rman target /
Do you multiple oracle homes?
Is it in windows or in Unix
IF it is unix you should login as ORACLE user and execute the commands
Theuser should have the SYSDBA privilge
In windows the user excuting the command the user should be a part of the ORA_DBA group

2) Created one tablespace, user and 1 table in DB
3) Registered the MYDB1 in RMAN Db.
4)Created a Pfile from MYDB1 database and changed db value and other values of MYDB1 to MYDB2(Database name to be duplicate)
5)Created a password file
6)Startup MYDB2 in NOMOUNT stage.
7) At RMAN prompt I have done below things to but i have getting the error

Unable to connect to Target

Hi
I have a connection details. The connection details is using SID.
When i enter the Database name, Global name, Port, host and user name details.
I am getting the following error.
ORA-12535: TNS: Operation timed out
Please suggest some solutions ASAP.
I am able to ping and tnsping the database.
Thanks and Regards,
Soma

Hi Soma,
I am getting the error when i try to create loaction.As I understand you got this error during testing location.
When you test location OWB tries connect to target database from server side (where OWB repository located).
In this new thread you told that there is firewall in your network
Unable to Connect to Oracle Target using SID
So I think firewall can be a cause of your problem.
Try to check connection (tnsping, sqlplus, etc.) to target database from server side.

RMAN catalog fails to show target database information when in nomount mode

Hello everyone, I am trying to restore a dev. database from its own backup taken a week back. The DB is in noarchivelog mode and recently 2 of the datafiles were removed from the files system and thus the need to restore the DB from its backup. However rest of the files and control files are intact.
Now, when I put the database in mount mode and connect to the catalog then I can see the DB's incarnation;

Hi,
You won't be able to see incarnation information when the DB is in "nomount" since the incarnation is written in the control file. I don't think the catalog has this information.
Anyway, in order to restore datafiles, the instance must be mounted, so you should be OK.
Mount the instance and just restore the datafiles.

Hi Pals,
Today while configuring two of my machines (On same Network) for RMAN I'm facing some issues while connect to the Catalog Server and register a target database.
Here are more details about the (Environment) -- machines:
Machine 1 - ORCL (Catalog Server)
Machine 2 - PRCL (Target Database)
Both machines and in same network.
Tnsping results: both machines are able to ping each other

TNSnames: Created an for both machines in each others tnsnames.ora file.
tnslsnr status: Connected Both Machines)

I've tried several options with SERVICE_NAME and HOST name after your's and Morgan's post but no luck so far. Please let me know if need (*tnslsnr* status results as well)
So, this is what i originally have on my machine and yes I'm still getting ORA-12514: TNS:listener error.
Thank you guys for your attention.
Please help.

Hello mseberg,
Actually you find the problem .....
Adding the following softlink helped :
ln -s /opt/omni/lib/libob2oracle8_64bit.so /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/DG11gR2TST/lib/libobk.so
I run the duplicate command and its look much better:
