Database componentes required/excluded for RMAN and Grid control repository

I'm planning creation of a centralized 10gR2 RMAN repository for my production/dev environment, and needed a basic, barebones database. We may also use that same database as a repository for 10g OEM Grid Control in the future, so I wanted to ensure I was prepared for that.
None of the documentation says anything about particular required components for RMAN, only that a database is needed. So am I allowed to deselect all items from the following DBCA list? I didn't expect any problems with the optional components, but wanted to make sure that RMAN or Grid control would function, were I to disable Oracle JVM or XML DB. My standard loadout (for better or worse) is to include everything in my production/dev databases, and I didn't want that to be the case with this one.
Database Components:
Oracle Data Mining
Oracle Text
Oracle OLAP
Oracle Spatial
Enterprise Manager Repository
Standard Database Components:
Oracle JVM
Oracle XML DB
Oracle Intermedia

Thanks. For that matter, do DBA's in the general population install those standard oracle components? I have them there in my default installs just because of the message 'Oracle recommends you have these installed.' in the DBCA screen.

Backup policy on Grid, using RMAN and Recovery Catalog.

Hello Gurus,
I'm trying to move ahead the new features of Oracle 10g in my company. So I've already created Grid Control and will deploy Agents/Targets during the next week. I also want to switch the backup process from the archaic exp/imp to RMAN with the Recovery Catalog.
My question is such: could anybody suggest the best book or text with solutions and descriptions of backup policy, using the Grid, RMAN and Catalog? What I want to do is to create eventually the powerful and centralized storage of every database in a company and do all daily routine from there. But as long as I'm only in the very beginning I want to gain some knowledge before the bad experience, like crashed recovery catalog and no backups for all databases :-)))
Definitely I'll keep existing imp/exp and hotbackup for a long time. I'm not going to substitute all our backup strategy with one catalog. I just want to understand what will be the best practice in the backup perspective.
And at all, I wonder if you please could give me very brief answer to this question: Let's say I have a huge monster with 5 disks by 500Gb RAD0+1. Is it a bad idea to store all of them in one physical machine before they will tape to backup or it could make sense? For me it sounds a bit scary, but probably if all made with the brain it's not a bad idea?
Please, send me to some valuable and good source (like Tom Kyte or Don Burleson) Unfortunately, I didn't find anything regard the backups itself. Only pretty much general thought.
Thanks a lot in advance.
M.

great!
thanks a lot!
this is definitely valuable info and I'll read right away. but as far as understand they suggest to use Data Guard, Standby and RAC which are the best ways to prevent your environment from crash. But in reality (I mean in my company) nobody is going to move to RAC at this point and I'm not sure, that they will have a chance to do in the next year. they just aren't up to it.
what I'm looking for is probably some tips and hints about backups in more or less big environment, but not as big as Oracle itself :-) unfortunately, i'm the only DBA in my surrounding. i mean, i have no friends or mentors DBAs that could seat with me in a pub and pass theirs knowledge from generation to generation :-)))
but anyway, I'll devote this week-end to this link.
thanks a lot!

11GR2 : installation without database control and grid

Hi men,
i would like to know if it is possible to install 11GR2 database without install Database Control and Grid. It is important because my customer doesn't need to use these products.
Thx.

Thx.Your customer thinks he doesn't need a management tool? He may very well not need Grid. Technically, you don't need dbcontrol either. But as much of a command-line bigot as I am, I'd hate to have to go back to scripting everything, and I see no sense in paying good money for a third-party tool to do the same thing I can do with dbcontrol for free. I'd say that as a professional, you owe it to your customer to question him and explain why this might not be "A Good Thing".

Grid 11gR2 (11.2.0.2) on Solaris 10 Containers getting PRVF-5150 error

I am attempting to install Oracle DB RAC Grid Infrastructure 11gR2 on Solaris 10 Containers and am getting ASM PRVF-5150 error. After doing some search internally/externally, I found something like: .." the prerequisite check for Oracle ASM devices reports an error (with PRVF-5150) that the given disk is not a valid path. Workaround: This error can be ignored."
I have 2 T2000's, Oracle Solaris 10 9/10 s10s_u9wos_14a, 144488-12, Solaris Whole-Root Zone, and Sun StorEdge 3320 (SCSI shared disk array). I have installed Grid 11.2.0.1 in the same environment and I didn't get PRVF-5150 error. Attempting to install 11.2.0.2 would consistently produce the error.
My shared device can be seen from both nodes (and as mentioned 11gR1 was successfully installed/configured/deconfigured). cluvfy.sh also passed.
crw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 32, 4 Jul 18 14:58 /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s4
If I were to ignore it and continue, I get the following error:
ACFS-9200: Supported
ACFS-9300: ADVM/ACFS distribution files found.
ACFS-9307: Installing requested ADVM/ACFS software.
ACFS-9349: Unable to configure driver 'oracleadvm'.

Oracle DB and RAC 11gR2 has been certified on Solaris 10 Containers.
Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

10gR2 RAC, more 10gR2 RAC, DataGuard and Grid Control on Windows 2003

Hello all,
I have never used GC to implement DG between two different RAC installations, so if i could just a few questions to the experts.
1) It seems that the Grid Control GUI of the DG broker cannot created a RAC instance for physical/logical standby. You have to use the third option from the wizzard, the one about the previously created standby database.
Can i hope that as long as i create the RAC standby i will still be able to work with GC?
2) Currently, when i try to create a physical standby from my primary RAC instance, i get a Java exception when i try to perform the backup and message like "Index: 3, Size: 3". doesnt really help... Does anybody know what this means?
3) Once i have the whole solution implemented, will the two clusters require the presence of the Grid Control machine to "talk to each other"? Ie what will happen if i shutdown the Grid Control machine?
GC: Grid Control
DG: Data Guard
RAC: Real Application Clusters

well i skipped Grid Control all together and went for an all command-line approach and ... it works! Maybe i shall setup GC now to see graphically what i did, but i found more confidence working the traditional way, both for creating the standby backup with RMAN and starting up the initial standby instance, registering it with the clustered ASM and adding more stby instances with srvctl as i needed.
I found a great ally in all the documents listed in the MAA section of oracle.com
and i could only suggest them (at least until 10.2 version of GC comes out)

RMAN and Datapump Question

Hello,
Database : 11gR2
I was recently provieded an access to a new database, because users are complaining of poor perfromance.
During my monitoring of this database, and using statspack report (because we don't have licensed diagnostics pack), I have seen both RMAN and Datapump processes running together during peak hours. So I asked the DBA responsible of this server, why she's scheduling RMAN and datapump together?!! She replied that she knows nothing about these datapump processes and that could be RMAN who is using (“ Module: Data Pump Worker”) !
This answer was surprising me since in the Oracle documentation, I never read that before! Is it correct that RMAN utility can use Data Pump Workers??!
This is here answer : "I think these “ Module: Data Pump Worker” are run by rman during backup."
Thank you and sorry for this stupid question!
Edited by: 899767 on 26-ago-2011 0:47

RMAN and DATAPUMP are two different utility provided by oracle to take backup
Oracle Backup are divided into two parts: ---
a) Physical Backup: -- These are the copies of physical database files and we can take it by using RMAN utilities provided by Oracle.
b) Logical Backup: -- These contain logical data (for example tables and stored procedures) extracted with Oracle Datapump Utility and stored in a binary file

What is the difference between list display and grid display in alv report

Hai genious
i am a new of the abap, i dont know the alv report, i have a small doubt, can u please tell me what is the main difference between list display and grid display in alv report
thanks&regards
chinnu

Hi ,
1. For all practical purposes, they are the same.
2. Some differences:
a) from abap coding point of view,
alv list is done with Function modules,
alv gris can also be done with FM,
but can also be done using OO concepts.
b) Alv grid (using oo concept) requires
designing the screen layout .
Hence, in one screen, we can show more
then one alv grid
(we cannot show more than
one alv list on one screen)
c) ALV grid uses ActiveX controls
present on the Presentation Server.
Hence, it consumes More Memory
on the presentation server.
d) ALV LIST is Display Only.
Whereas
ALV Grid Can Be made EDITABLE for entry purpose.
e) In alv grid, these options are possible,
but not in alv list.
without horizontal lines
without vertical lines
without cell merging during sorts
display total lines above the entries
I hope it helps.

What are the Oracle Home and GRID home directory locations for Oracle 12c (12.1.0.5) release

Hello All,
I plan to install and configure Oracle 12c Cloud Control console on a single standalone server and the version is Oracle 12.1.0.5. All the databases which are installed across in the entire farm/landscape are these versions:
Oracle 10.2.0.3 Enterprise Edition
Oracle 10.2.0.4 Enterprise Edition
Oracle 10.2.0.4 Active DataGuard Enterprise Edition
Oracle 10.2.0.5 Enterprise Edition
Oracle 11.2.0.1 Enterprise Edition
Oracle 11.2.0.1 Active DataGuard Enterprise Edition
Oracle 11.2.0.3 RAC Enterprise Edition
All Oracle databases across these versions will use the same version of Oracle Grid since ASM is used for all the Oracle database across Production/Test/Development databases. The OS is RHEL 5.8, RHEL 6.3, OEL 6.3 versions.
When installing the Oracle 12c Cloud Control what is the Oracle and Grid Home directory location need to set to. Please let me know if there are any other additional configurations needed?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards,
Abhijit

First off, the only EM CC release out right now is 12.1.0.2, not sure where you got 12.1.0.5 (DB Plugin maybe?).
Second, you're confusing EM CC homes with DB/Grid homes.
EM CC will need it's own Oracle Home (i.e. /opt/oracle/product/em_12.1.0.2). You will need to provide repository database connection information, but EM does not care what home the db or grid is installed in.
I would recommend reviewing the documentation as well as the references on OTN -

Simple Problems of oracle 8i using Rman and so.................

I am Shan here. I am DBA student for oracle 8i. I have a problem with a backup and recoverys article which is Rman. If you can not help for this then please tell me a contact of that person who can help me. If u can then it is on..
1- I create a user RMAN. I grant him a quota on rman and on rman_temp tablespace; grant him a dba, sysdba, recovery_catalog_owner role. Then I connect it to target. Then I create catalog, then register database then type a command of list (LIST COPY OF DATABASE and LIST BACKUP OF DATABSE) it shows me nothing. ok.
Then I take a whole backup of a database with the command
Run {
Allocate channel c1 type disk;
Backup
Format d:\backup\whole_%d_%s_%p.bak
(Database) ;}
This command shows me allocating channel and then processing backup Then this commend ended successfully. And it shows me files physically of my desire path. Then I query a command of LIST for showing me my backup details (LIST BACKUP OF DATABSE). But it shows me nothing. No details about my backup. But the file is still physically there at my given path.
This is the same story with copy command it physically create a file there but do not show it with LIST COPY OF DATABASE command.
It is not a story of a single Computer I changed it and do the same stuff with the others but the result is same. But I got desire results on one Computer but next day I got another problem with this Computer. I type a command of list backup it shows me the results. It has two backup pieces. I tried to delete them with change command by allocating channel for delete type disk. And then change backupset 605(backup set no) delete;. It shows me that he deleted that file form path but when I query of list backup it show me the same results which it show me before delete. Then I tried to delete second set which is still there I would not allow me to delete that set and give a error that catalog does not have the information about that file but list command show me both pieces. I do manual resync catalog command but no difference on results.
Then I take another whole backup at another place, and query to get its information but list command does not show the results. It shows me the old results. Then I take a backup of a single data file and query but the result is same.
I also tried to delete that copy data file by change command but it says that recovery catalog do not have the information about that file.
2- If we allocate more then one channels for backup on a same drive what will be the behavior of those channels.
Will them not working parallel. And tell me that it is true that channels will work parallel when they are writhing information on different drives (different drive means that two different hard drives physically).
Syntax of all commands is writen,I tallied it by book.<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<3- What is O stands for in crosscheck command? A stands for available U Stands for Unavailable and O Stands for? In a status column.
4- Please tell me a single command to delete all tables of a user. (Single command..)
We are using ORACLE 8i (8.1.7.0.0) Version for practice.
Give its solution by mail
[email protected]

I have briefly used sql*ldr in linux and yes, it does support exit codes

ALV BLOCK and GRID to move right in screen

Dear all,
How to move the reuse_alv_block_display and grid display to little right side of screen and also it should go back to the previous screen clicking the back button.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
Exporting
This code will start your screen at column 4 and line 5.
SCREEN_START_COLUMN = 4
Screen_start_line = 5.
And you header will come in every page for that you have to define a routine
Form top_of_page.
Endform.
and pass this routine name name to your REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY FM.
Check this code for the example of TOP_OF_PAGE.

RMAN and Point IN time recovery

1. We have a table with bad data.
2. We know that data was entered via the GUI exactly one week ago.
3. I have an RMAN database full back-up that was taken the same day but before the table was screwed.
4. the database in archivelog mode.
5. we will be happy to restore the database in the condition before the change occured
5. when I restore database via RMAN, and do:
recover UNTIL TIME '16-MAR-2005';
Oracle restore bad data, and if I put time or scn I get a message that the database incarnation is wrong!
Is there any other way to do it?

Move all fields and grid lines to the the right

I have a report where I want to insert two new fields to the left of all the existing columns. Can I move all of my fields and grid lines to the right at once? I don't want to start at the right and drag each field out to the right two inches, etc. Hoping there is an easy way to accomplish this at once. Thanks.

Thanks - that I know. Really would like to see the grid lines move with it. Kind of like when you adjust columns in a table in ms-word. You can move a left most column and shift the others right of it in one motion.
