Relinking Oracle binaries and multiple Oracle Homes

Hello,
My question is related to relinking Oracle binaries in the following scenario:
As part of larger migration project we are moving all the databases from one server to another. Both on old and on new server the OS is the same: HP-UX 11.23i. There are 5 databases on the source server, each with it's own Oracle Home (and Oracle binaries). All Oracle binaries for all the databases are version 10.2.0.3.
On the new server we have some of the migrated databases already in production. Now our DBA wants to move another database and, because for each database binaries are moved also from source to destination server, he has to relink the binaries on target server. Is it required to stop all the databases on the target server to perform the relink for this one DB, even if they all have separate Oracle Homes (binaries)?
Thanks for your answers

RAC and multiple Oracle Homes

Here is my issue: We have a central RAC cluster that I'm being asked to run on. It is a two node cluster. I would like to have my own Oracle homes on the boxes so that I have more control over the environment and management (like patching etc...). So on the box I would have a home for ASM, a home for Clusterware, and two database homes. Is this certified so that the databases running out of my home are clustered and managed by the Clusterware?
Thanks!

Absolutely...make sure that you use OUI to install the additional Oracle_Homes so that the inventory would be updated (instead of copying over from the existing OHs).
We have a cluster, wherein we have about 6 different ORACLE_HOMEs (whether it's good idea to have so many OHs is a totally different question though)...and it works fine and it well supported by Oracle. As such, you can both NON-RAC and RAC OHs as well, if you prefer.
Thanks

Oracle XE (Windows) Multiple Oracle Homes

I have a question in regards to Oracle Express Edition and how it maintains Oracle Home.
I currently have multiple Oracle Homes on my machine. In order for apps like SQL Developer or PLSQL Developer to see the correct TNSNAMES entries, I usually have to use the Home Selector from the Installation tools to properly obtain the correct tnsnames entries in the dropdowns.
Now, I'm a Linux DBA, not to keen on Oracle environments for Windows. But, when I installed Oracle Express Edition, none of my Applications SQL Developer or PLSQL Developer recognize the tnsnames entries for my environment. From the 9i Home Selector I see that it is in the correct environment I want it to use. But it seems Express has overriden somehow.
Can anyone lead me into the right direction to switch between my XE Environment to my 9i environments?
Thanks.
Lee

I did it too, but the beta over beta software is just too dangerous.. you never know what is crashing your system :)

Oracle 9i and Windows XP home version

Is it possible to install Oracle 9i on Windows XP home version? I have heard that the O/S has to be Windows XP PROFESSIONAL version. Is this true?

I installed oracle 10g on my XP Home and it works great. I can even config the net manager connect from my another XP Pro to this XP Home oracle 10g.

Oracle reports and multiple pages

I am new the Oracle Reports and I am trying to generate a report that can continue to the another page. For instance, if my list of items exceeds the first page of the report, the remaining items will be printed on the next page. We can get it to continue to the next page, but the formatting of the following pages after the first page needs to be different. Currently, it is placing the remaining items in the same position as the first page. The remaining items should be further up the page.
In short, how do I generate 1 report with 2 different formats. All pages beside the 1st page will be the same.
Any guidance is appreciated.

Please post the details of the application release, database version and OS.
I would like to ask for your help regarding printing from concurrent requests.
I am currently having an issue with printing multiple pages from Oracle reports, both in text format and RTF/PDF formats.
When I generate a multiple page report and print it directly from a concurrent request, print outs generate extra space after each page even though page size is indicated in the reports (all of them are in letter size).What if you print the output file from the OS, can you reproduce the issue then?
Troubleshooting (Printing) [ID 104528.1]
An Extra Empty Page Is Printed at the End of Requests Output [ID 1011499.7]
I have already tried editing the printer drivers both the actual driver config file and through the application but the results are still the same.Can you reproduce the issue with other printers?
This is very important since printing is done on continuous paper and continuous pre-printed forms
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.If the issue is urgent, please log a SR.
Thanks,
Hussein

Oracle 9i (and the Oracle website!)

Hello, I've been using this website for many years now and have always found it extremely difficult to navigate. Simple tasks like finding system requirements (e.g. supported operating systems, etc.) is nearly impossible in some cases. Lot's of sales propaganda everywhere though, no shortage of that.
Just being facetious there. :-) I'm very fond of using Oracle products, and I'm no MS fan. Just don't like how this site is structured, that's all.
Ok, here's my dilemma. I have: a
1). Win2K Server machine for database;
2). SuSE Linux 10.2 machine for database client.
I figure my best bet is to go with Oracle 9i for both database and client, since SuSE 10.2 isn't supported yet for the newer Oracle 10g. So, where can I download Oracle 9i database and client?

Thanks, I have also found that link. I go to:
www.oracle.com ---> database ----> Standard_Edition
Then there's a FREE DOWNLOAD link at the right for Oracle 10g (but I want Oracle 9i). I press the link and there's a long listing of 10g downloads. At the bottom there's a small link for 'previous database releases.' That's the link you provided. No info about supported systems anywhere. I have to fish through the full documentation index for that. Couldn't this be easier somehow? And shouldn't databases and clients be listed separately?
Meant constructively of course and nothing against you, B548204BB. I appreciate your response :-)
Anyway, it seems there is no 'secret link' anywhere for a Linux-based 9i client. But, I just saw something to indicate that Oracle 10g is now supported on SLES 10.2. That might solve my problem! I have openSUSE though. Anyone have success with installing Oracle 10g database or client on openSuSE 10.2?
I might start a new thread for this.....

Difference between Oracle SID and an Oracle Database

Hi
Can any one please differeniate what exactly is the difference between an Oracle SID and a new Oracle Database?
We just need to create another instance of an application (so we need another copy of all tables).
So either we can:
1. New database SID created or
2. New user created in existing schema or
3. New database provided
Which is the best approach?

Hi,
New database SID created orThat is equivalent of creating a new database in your case.
New user created in existing schema orYou meant new schema(user) created in existing database. I assumed this because you do not want both application to update the same table copy, but different copy.
3. New database providedIt all depends on your you whether you want to create a new database or a new schema for getting another copy of table.
Some points which I take in mind
1) If I have a production database and I need to create a new set of tables for testing or any other purpose, I would create a new database.
2) If I have a test database and I need to create a new set of tables for testing or any other purpose, if possible I would create a new schema in existing database.
3) If I am running less in resources(hardware/memory), I would be createing a new schema in existing database.
4) If I am not running less in resources and I would to keep these two copies entirely different, then from security purpose I would create a new database.

Very Urgent - Export Oracle 10G and Import Oracle 9i

Dear Friends,
I am in a very tense sitution. Please help to sort out this problem. I am running an application against Oracle 10G. Now I want the the data of the application running under 10G(server A) to be imported to Oracle 9i (another Server B) and run the same application. What should I do so that i can export the data from Oracle 10G and import in Oracle 9i.
Please treat this as very urgent.

You need to post your question in the database forum. This forum is for Oracle Forms. There are database tools such as SQL Developer that let you move data back and forth between databases.

OraOps.dll and Multiple Oracle Homes

Hi All,
I am writing a simple Windows Forms client app that is trying to connect to an Oracle 8.1.7 database. I am having a problem connecting with ODP.NET. The error I get is as follows:
"An unhandled exception of type 'System.DllNotFoundException' occurred in oracle.dataaccess.dll
Additional information: Unable to load DLL (OraOps.dll)."
I have gone through these forums and tried everything that the various people suggested:
1) I have made sure that process can access the OraOps.dll file (In my program I opened the dll and read a couple of bytes out of it.)
2) I have installed the 8.1 client into a seperate home from ODP.NET (8 client and OraOLEDB is in D:\Oracle\Ora81, 9 client and ODP.NET is in D:\Oracle\Ora92) I intalled the 8 client first, then the 9 client with ODP.NET.
3) I have used the Oracle Home Selector to ensure that the Oracle 9 home is current.
4) I have checked the path that the process is using to ensure that the Oracle 9 home is first in the path, which it is.
Can anyone think of any other things that might cause this problem? I'm out of ideas. :-(

Absolutely...make sure that you use OUI to install the additional Oracle_Homes so that the inventory would be updated (instead of copying over from the existing OHs).
We have a cluster, wherein we have about 6 different ORACLE_HOMEs (whether it's good idea to have so many OHs is a totally different question though)...and it works fine and it well supported by Oracle. As such, you can both NON-RAC and RAC OHs as well, if you prefer.

AIX and multiple oracle homes

Currently we are running AIX 4.3.3 and Oracle 8.06 with about 13 instances on one box. We need to upgrade one of the 13 instances to Oracle 8.1.7.2. Is it possible to have two different versions of Oracle residing on one server with 12 databases on version 8.06 and one on 8.1.7.2???

Oracle VM and multiple SAN LUNS

Hi,
now i have got another question.
On my OVM Cluster with 2 Servers and SAN LUNS.
I have created my root repository with ocfs2.
Ist is mounted to /OVS/xxx
Now i like to have some more SAN LUNS connetd to my both servers.
What is the best practice? Wher should i mount them (and how? fstab?)
And how do i locate the Guests on it? (cant find where to choose the repo in the OVS Gui?)
Thanks
Here are some more infos:
/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py -l
[ ] c7b7119e-756b-464d-87f4-8ce1ef760adf => /dev/mapper/mpath2
[ * ] a9c14f22-2f8d-4ea0-b40c-2513831ee119 => /dev/dm-0
mount
ocfs2_dlmfs on /dlm type ocfs2_dlmfs (rw)
/dev/dm-0 on /var/ovs/mount/A9C14F222F8D4EA0B40C2513831EE119 type ocfs2 (rw,_netdev,heartbeat=local)
/dev/mapper/mpath2 on /var/ovs/mount/A9C14F222F8D4EA0B40C2513831EE119/lun-sata02 type ocfs2 (rw,_netdev,heartbeat=local) >>>> is that a good idea? i did mount manually!

you need to initialize the repository.
And after that it should get mounted (not under OVS though... the path was something like /opt/ovs-repositories/mount/ID or something). Sorry can't check atm.It gets mounted in /var/ovs/mount/UUID
