Relocate Linux box(HTMLDB,Oracle 10g db) to Another location

We have Linux box in one are we want to move it to another area ,we are planing to keep the name of the server the same but the IP adress willl change.
This Box has 4 oracle 10g databases
Oracle application server
Oracle HTMLDB application.
What will be the effect of changing the IP address on these componets.
I f you have any ideas please let me know, there not going to be any testing so i have to figure out all risks before we do this.
Thanks

Not sure of app server if you have hardcoded ip references. If you are using the embedded plsql gateway, there will be no problems.
Either way, the changes will not be a big deal.

Oracle/linux box and oracle NT server

Hi!
I have very specific question and wonder if anybody can be of
help. We're going to setup web page using oracle data. Which
oracle product should we use for getting information off of the
NT server running oracle 7.3.4? Is there a free client license
for Linux client - that would be possibly helpful for setting up
web server on the linux box and launching sqlplus in the linux
environment in order to take data from different box - NT server.
I've known that there is a product for linux called Web DB that
can be rather helpful. Is there any other way to establish
connection between linux web server and NT oracle database? If
anybody has any idea i would be very glad to hear from you.

you can access an Oracle server running on any Host from Linux as
long as you have Oracle SQL-Net installed.
On top of SQL-Net you can use any other software, like Perl,
PHP3, etc.
If you use Perl, you need to install the perl modules DBI and
DBD-Oracle.

Oracle 10g Rel 2 On Windows 7

Hi all,
can any one tell me that ,Is it possible to install the oracle 10g rel2 on the windows 7 ultimate 32bit.
I saw on the oracle download page but it is only available for vista.
Reading a article about windows 7 ,it says that many of the vista or xp applications can easily run on the windows 7?
Thanks
Best Regards

It's a long leap from Microsoft touting their latest and greatest by saying that "many" applications can easily run on 7, to expecting any particular non-MS product to run on it. Especially when the vendor of said non-MS product specifically says the product is not certified for Win7.
Thanks
Best RegardsI would second what the others said. If this is for you own study ...
1) install VMPlayer (free)
2) in VMplayer ,create a virtual linux box, using Oracle Enterprise LInux (free)
3) on that virtual linux box, install Oracle (free)

Oracle 10g RAC design with ASM and OCFS

Hi all,
I have a question about a proposed Oracle 10g Release 2 RAC design for a 2 node cluster.
ASM can store database files but not Oracle binaries nor OCR and voting disk. As such, OCFS version 1 does not support a shared Oracle Home. We plan to use OCFS version 2 with ASM version 2 on Red Hat Linux Enteprrise Server 4 with Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1).
For OCFS v2, a shared Oracle home and shared OCR and voting disk are supported. My question is does the following proposed architecture make sense for OCFS v2 with ASM v2 on Red Hat Linux 4?
Oracle 10g Release 2 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 4:
OCFS V2:
- shared Oracle home and binaries
- shared OCR and vdisk files
- CRS software shared OCFS v2 filesystem
- spfile
- controlfiles
- tnsnames.ora
ASM v2 with ASMLib v2:
Proposed ASM disk groups:
- data_dg for application data
- backupdg for flashback and archivelogs
- undo_rac1dg ASM diskgroup for undo tablespace for racnode1
- undo_rac2dg ASM diskgroup for undo tablespace for racnode2
- redo_rac1dg ASM diskgroup to hold redo logs for racnode1
- redo_rac2dg ASM diskgroup to hold redo logs for racnode2
- temp1dg temp tablespace for racnode1
- temp2dg temp tablespace for racnode2
Does this sound like a good initial design?
Ben Prusinski, Senior DBA

OK Tim, thanks for advices.
I think Netbackup can be integrated with RMAN but I don't want to loose time on this (political).
To summarize:
ORACLE_HOME and CRS_HOME on each node (RAID1 and NTFS)
Shared storage:
Disk1 and disk 2: RAID1: - Raw partition 1 for OCR
- Raw partition 2 for VotingDisk
- OCFS for FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA
Disk3, disk4 and disk5: RAID 0 - Raw with ASM redundancy normal 1 diskgroup for database files.
This is a running project here, will start testing the design on VMware and then go for production setup.

How to install oracle 10g in MAC OS X LION

Can some one help me in installing oracle 10g in my mac os xlion.. I also need to know where can i download ORACLE 10g for mac ??

Hi,
About installing Oracle 10g in OS X Lion, I think you may need to install in other platform such as LINUX. Because Oracle 10g R2 installer packages were removed from OTN site which it may end-of-support.
Best regards,

Install linux redhat for oracle 10g2

Hi Friends,
I will install linux redhat linux 5 for oracle 10g 2. How to created correct partition of linux to match oracle 10g 2.
I install linux as server style. any advice?
Thanks
JIm

Hi JIm
It is true that for us DBA the OFA is the standard by excellence. You have also the quite good document on that gives you also a lot of examples.
http://www.ss64.com/orasyntax/ofa.html
What is a style server? Do you mean as a template server?
Please note also that if you need to do more than 1 installation you can clone your binaries from your first installation. Ideally you should patch it to he latest release and then make your clone.
1. tar your current binaries under /oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
2. copy the tar file on the target server under /export/home/oracle and then untar it.
3. cd to new_oracle_home/oui
4. ./runInstaller -clone -silent ORACLE_HOME="<new_oracle_home>" ORACLE_HOME_NAME="<unique_home_name>"
read more on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15660/app_cloning.htm
You can also clone your database to other targets
1 Duplicate from source to your targets
1.1 Perform a database backup including archive log
1.2 Create an Oracle password file for the auxiliary instance
1.3 Establish Oracle Net connectivity to the auxiliary instance
1.4 Create an initialization parameter file for the auxiliary instance
1.5 Start the auxiliary instance in NOMOUNT mode
1.6 Mount or open the target database
1.7 Ensure that backups and archived redo log files are available
1.8 Allocate auxiliary channels if needed
1.9 Execute the DUPLICATE script
Hope this will help you to get the templates installed.
Cheers

Installation of OracleAS 10g on Red Hat Linux ES 3.0

Installation of Oracle AS 10g on RedHat ES 3.0
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
Copy from OTN Note
Start
Oracle 10g is certified to run the base release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) without updates. If you have update CDs, you can use the boot CD from the update instead of the boot CD from the base release to automatically apply all updates during the installation. All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.
1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
3.     Language Selection
o     Accept the default.
4.     Keyboard Configuration
o     Accept the default.
5.     Welcome Screen
o     Click on Next.
6.     Mouse Configuration
o     Accept the default.
7.     Installation Type
o     Select Custom.
8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
(WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
- 100MB /boot partition
-1,500MB swap partitionâSet this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
-7,150MB root partitionâ This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
9.     Boot Loader Configuration
o     Accept the default.
10.     Network Configuration
o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.

] âo [ and at line # 102 make= /usr/ccs/bin/make to /usr/bin/make remove ccs and save the file
There will no error in installation in infrastructure
Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructureâs installation plz rename that 3 files as
Mv coredb coredb-infra
Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
Mv ora     â¦     oraâ¦-infra
If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
When problem comes?
AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

Hi,
I tried uname -a and it returns the following:
Linux NLABLINUX 2.4.21-20.EL.c0 #1 Thu Sep 9 02:07:03 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
We have the following problems:
1. I am having a box running RHEL 3.0 (got from centos.org). I have Oracle 10g running ok. Now I tried to install ASMLIB downloaded from technet. The files are:
rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.4.21-EL-1.0.3-1.i686.rpm \
     oracleasmlib-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
     oracleasm-support-1.0.3-1.i386.rpm \
When I tried to install these files, I got the following error:
Checking for Red Hat enterprise kernel: [FAILED]
Also when I try to run /etc/init.d/oracleasm , I get the same error
Checking for Red Hat enterprise kernel: [FAILED]
2. We created 4 raw partitions /dev/raw/raw1 - 4 using raw command.
[root@rcdell root]# ls -l /dev/raw/raw[1,2,3,4]

Installing Oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux

Hi,
I am new with Linux Os and have to install oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux Os for a customer. So before proceeding, I need some guidelines.
1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setup
Regards
Edited by: user640001 on Feb 25, 2011 5:44 AM

1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?Ordinarily, I'd recommend getting Oracle Linux (http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux) because the default install includes all the prerequisite RPM packages you will need. And failing that, also offers another RPM package "oracle-validated" which will cause the installation of the necessary prerequisites.
But... you mentioned customer: if this is a revenue-producing situation and customer money is at stake, I strongly recommend they obtain commercial O/S support with either Oracle, Red Hat, or maybe SuSE/Novell. Compared to the cost of a downed business, an O/S support arrangement is cheap, cheap, cheap.
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?Sure. You can run Oracle VirtualBox on most Linux, Windows, or Solaris boxes. http://VirtualBox.org for info.
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?No real differences in either environment.
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setupWhat, you didn't try http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux yet?

Cant login into Oracle 10g XE on Linux

Hello,
I am running Redhat. I just finished installing Oracle 10g XE without any issues or error. For some reason when I go to the web login page, http://127.0.0.1/apex, I am unable to log in. I am using "system" as the username and the password I used during the install. I wrote down the password during the install so I know its the right one. I am able to start and stop the services from the command line without any issue. When I look at the status everything good.

Any idea why I can't get in???

Are you working on the same platform? A unix like platform or a windows?
In the case you are working on a unix like, make sure you have properly set your environment variables:
ORACLE_SID
ORACLE_HOME
PATH
On a windows box, it is the same, but additionally ensure the oracleXE service is started too.
Next issue the sqlplus command:
sqlplus / as sysdba
This should report you the connected message, this means you already are connected as sys with the sysdba role.
Finally issue the reset password command.

Oracle 10g AS on Linux

Hi
Configuration Assistant " OPMN Configuration Assistant- start HTTP Server" failed.
This is the error i am getting when i am installing 10g AS on Linux 64bit

1. Can i install oracle 10g AS 32 bit on linux 64 bit ?
Regards
James

It should be possible to install at least the SSO and OID components of OAS 10.1 on a 64 bits Linux system as long as you take the 10.1.4 version. According to the [url http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/idm-certification-101401-083012.html]certification information, it is certified as long as you patch it to 10.1.4.3 afterwards.
Note that is a quit typical setup for FMW11g products which require SSO. If you want to use the latest OID version (11.1.1.4) on x64, you will need a 64 bits OS. But you should still be able to install SSO on that box as well and wire it to your OID. Since 10.1.4 is still 32-bits, it should be supported with a 64-bits OS.
Note that you could install your 'infrastructure' on two boxes with OiD residing on the 64-bits box while SSO runs on a 32 bits environment. But I just think that it would be an overkill unless you have strict topology requirements or overanxious network administrators.
Thanks,
EJ

Oracle enterprise linux and oracle 10g?

Hey;
I'm pretty new to trying to download oracle and get it installed on a linux box. I made a couple of attempts on linux fedora core 10 and windows vista home edition both of which didn't get very far. Since I just past my ocp exams via a boot camp (yay for me!), I'm hoping to get a couple of linux boxes up and running to ensure I get the concepts down through practice.
From what I'm reading, it looks like I can download enterprise linux, put that on a system, and then download oracle 10g and install that w/little or no trouble (at least not expected...)
Am I reading that right or did I miss something? Any info greatly apprecaited.
Doug O'Leary

Hello,
You can download enterprise linux and 10g and get going. Enterprise linux is pre-packaged for the required components required to install oracle software, here is a link for your future reference to see platform compatibility.
