Running Observer on Different OS as compared to Primary & Sec DBs

Hi All,
Primary RAC and Standby RAC databases are using version 10.2.0.4. They are configured & controlled via Data Guard Broker. Currently, the observer runs from one of the Standby nodes. All are on Solaris x86 64bit OS version 10.
Now, I have to move Observer to 3rd DC and I am looking If I could use another OS for observer instead of same as DB OS version. Why? Our new insfrastrucutre is on RHEL Linux, therefore, I would like to deploy observer once and then wait for existing databases to be upgraded and moved to RHEL. Also, i understand that database and observer software should be of same version e.g. 10g, 11g.
My question is what if i install & configure observer on RHEL ? The end result would be:
1. Primary DB: Solaris 10, Oracle Software binaries version 10.2.0.4
2. Secondary/Standby DB: Solaris 10, Oracle Software binaries version 10.2.0.4
3. Observer: RHEL 5.8, Oracle Software binaries version 10.2.0.4
What do you guys say about it? Is it accepted mix configuration say e.g. to run for six months?
Also, it would be grateful to know if there any license implications when running observer on a different node running no databases at all.
regards,
Anjum

Hello;
There should be no issue doing this with Observer. I don't see a conflict.
The operating system on the observer computer can be different from the operating system running
on the primary computer or target standby database computer. However, the operating system for
the primary database computer and all associated standby database computers must be the same.Source : ( Oracle Data Guard Installation )

Why do we need to have a observer run on the different computer

Hello team,
Why do we need to have a observer run on the different computer and how to install & confgure it on that different computer.?pls help
5.5.6 Managing the Observer
The observer is integrated in the DGMGRL client-side component and runs on a different computer from the primary or standby databases and from the computer where you manage the broker configuration. The observer continuously monitors the fast-start failover environment to ensure the primary database is available (described in Section 5.5.2.1). The observer's main purpose is to enhance high availability and lights out computing by reducing the human intervention required by the manual failover process that can add minutes or hours to downtime.
Thanks

Thanks Aman,
Do we need a same db binary & OS version for starting the observer on the different computer ?? here the primary & standby are liunx.
Thanks in advance..
Regards,it does not have to be on the same platform or operating system on which the databases reside, and it does not need Oracle EE and an instance (which means no extra license).
To configure check this.

How can I read published data from a datasocket server running in a different network?

Hi all,
I have been trying to solve this problem but without any success. I want to develop data acquisition Vi to run on a computer on a remote location. I want to use the datasocket technology to acquire and publish this data so that in my office (in a different network), I can read the published data and perform analysis with it. I can successfully use this approach for the two computers in the same network but not when they are in different networks. My real problem is how to specify the URL for the acquisition computer in one network while the analysis Vi runs on a different network.
I have attached two Vis to illustrate my point (I simply want to be able to read the random numbers generated in the acquisition computer in a different network). The first Vi (RemoteDatasocketWrite.vi) will run on the remote computer with an IP address (192.168.0.110). My office computer on which RemoteDatasocketRead.vi runs has an IP address (192.168.0.11) and I can log in remotely into the remote computer using Remote Desktop Protocol with name (emelvin.001.eairlink.com) from my office computer.
Is it possible to do what I am trying to do or is there a simpler way to solve this problem?
I will really appreciate any help towards a solution to this problem.
Thanks

Are you getting an error? The way you have it set up, you can have an error and it will never be displayed. Put and error control on your front panel and see what it gives you. Also, shared variables in a project can be useful. Look at some examples for that.

ORA-04062 error when running forms with different users

ORA-04062 error when running forms with different users
I have a form that has a block that should display some data from another users tables. (The other user's name is dynamic, it's selected from a list box)
I wrote a stored procedure to get the data from other user's tables.
When I compile the form and run it with the same user I compiled, it works without any error. But when I run the compiled form with another user I get the ORA-04062 (signature of procedure has been changed) error.
I tried setting REMOTE_DEPENDENCIES_MODE to SIGNATURE in init.ora but it didn't help.
My Forms version is 6i with Patch 15.
Database version is 9.
Here is my stored procedure:
TYPE Scenario_Tab IS TABLE OF NUMBER(34) INDEX BY BINARY INTEGER;
TYPE Open_Curs IS REF CURSOR;
PROCEDURE Get_Scenarios(User_Name IN VARCHAR2, Scen_Table OUT Scenario_Tab) IS
Curs Open_Curs;
i NUMBER;
BEGIN
OPEN Curs FOR
'SELECT Seq_No FROM '|| User_Name ||'.scenario';
i := 1;
LOOP
FETCH Curs INTO Scen_Table(i);
EXIT WHEN Curs%NOTFOUND;
i := i + 1;
END LOOP;
END Get_Senarios;
I would be happy to solve this problem. It's really important.
Maybe somebody can tell me another way to do what I want to do. (getting a list of values from another users tables)

I think it should be a better solution to create a package,
and put your own TYPES and procedure into it.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PKG_XXX IS
TYPE TYP_TAB_CHAR IS TABLE OF .... ;
PROCEDURE P_XX ( Var1 IN VARCHAR2, var2 IN OUT TYP_TAB_CHAR );
END ;
Then in your Form :
Declare
var PKG_XXX.TYP_TAB_CHAR ;
Begin
PKG_XXX.P_XX( 'user_name', var ) ;
End ;

Same query has vastly different run times on different DBs

I have a query that is run on two different Oracle DBs (located on separate computers). One finishes in about 45 minutes; the other takes over two hours (how much longer, I can't tell you, as Linux keeps dropping the connection at the two-hour mark, but that's another story).
The tables on each space have identical data; the only significant difference is, one uses tables, while the other uses materialized views. The one with the tables is the faster one.
Both databases are running 11.2.0.2.0 Enterprise Edition 64-bit.
I ran an Explain Plan on the queries, and noticed that the faster one had an additional couple of lines in its plan.
Here is the query:

How many airport express can I add to my network for the purpose of using the airport express to send audio signal to different rooms in the house? I'm interested I'm running about six different zones.

How many airport express can I add to my network for the purpose of using the airport express to send audio signal to different rooms in the house? I'm interested I'm running about six different zones.
What I'm looking to do is to have self powered in ceiling speakers in every room in my house with out having to run wires to every room to carry the audio signal. I would like to use the airport express to do the job of carting the audio signal.
Here's my set up now I have an airport extreme and one airport express that I use to carry audio to one room.

FWIW. I have used up to four AirPort Express Base Stations (AX) for streaming sucessfully in pretty much the way you have described. I didn't have a need to try more so I can't attest that more would or would not work.

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. Running sqlplus in different paths.

Hi,
Title: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. Running sqlplus in different paths.
Very strange. We have windows host, 32 bit oracle software 10g, 64 bit sap kernel X64.
We have done Kernel patch yesterday and it was successful, system up and running.
Only problem with sqlplus. I have logged in as SIDADM user and when i open command box, the default path is C:\Documents and Settings\SIDADM. when i run sqlplus sys as sysdba, iam able to connnect without any problem but when iam in this path - /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run and run sqlplus sys as sysdba, it returns ORA-12560 error. Thats why, the BRTOOLS are also not working, giving same error.
Is there a problem in the kernel? Where could be the problem?
The environment variables ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME are set properly.
Many thanks,
Mohan.

Hi,
Please look into below SAP recommendation from SAP note 192822:
3. Can I run 32-bit applications on my 64-bit platform?
This depends on the platform you are running on. For all unix- platforms, this can be done without any problem. Even if the OS is started in 64-bit mode, it is possible to run 32-bit applications (R/3, oracle) on it. there is no need to either upgrade oracle or R/3 toa 64-bit version.
This, however is NOT the case for windows & Linux. If you have IA64 hardware in place, you do need to run an 64-bit OS as well as all application in 64-bit mode.
Could you please now share with me your OS (version and whether it is 32 bit or 64 bit as well), database (32 bit or 64 bit), SAP system (32 bit or 64 bit and System release) ?
Thanks
Sunny

Unix Perl Script To verify a Up and Running Database on Different Server

Unix Perl Script To verify a Up and Running Database on Different Server
Hi
can any one please tell me a solution to verify a Up and Running Database on Different Server other than the one where we run the unix perl script? The perl script should check if the database is running else it must exit.
Thanks much
Kiran

The other best solution would be Enterprise Manager, load the EM on the other machine and install oracle intelligent agent on all the boxes where oracle is running and problem solved.
FTP is only a File Transfer Protocol, you can upload/download the files but cant execute them.
Apart from EM the best way is load oracle client and make connection to all the databases.
AND There are some free oracle monitoring software available I dont know much about them but one is NAGIO (if I am not wrong), try that if you want.
BTW whats the problem in monitoring the boxes from the same physical box, means just schedule a script using cron on the same physical box where oracle is to either make connection using SQLPLUS or check the processes using "ps" command and if there is anything wrong then send alert from that box only. In this way there is no need to maintain a central monitoring server.

How to find users who are running IE with different credentials ?

How to find users who are running IE with different credentials ?
Is there any tool or a solution in the market will help or a i can use GPO or even Power Shell ?
thnx & Regards ,,

Hi Salman,
Based on your description, we can use Windows Credential Manager to check this. Windows Credential Manager stores credentials, such as user names and passwords that we use to log on to websites or other computers on a network.
Regarding Credential Manager, the following article can be referred to for more information.

How to get dbms_scheduler to run jobs on different RAC nodes

lets say I have 3 jobs and I want to run each on different RAC nodes. How do I do this?

Hi,
Pierre's response shows the easiest way to do this on 10g (create a service for each instance, then a job class for each service, then assign jobs to specific job classes).
In 11g there is a more direct method, you can just set the INSTANCE_ID attribute of a job using dbms_scheduler.set_attribute.
Note that for PL/SQL jobs Oracle recommends using services instead of instance ids because they provide better availability if one instance goes down or has to be taken down.
Hope this helps,
Ravi.

Should Admin Server run on a different machine

Hi,
          Is there any recomendation from BEA on running the AdminServer(where to
          run)?
          For the best approach (production environment), should admin server run on a
          different machine that does
          not have any managed server?
          I read in the docs that BEA recommends having the no. of weblogic instance
          be less than
          or equal to the number of CPU's. Assuming that I have 1 CPU machine, then
          running the AdminServer and one managed server on this machine, would this
          mean a performance problem or any other problems?
          Please advise.
          Thanks and Regards,
          Sriram.C.S


I typically recommend that customers run the Admin server on a separate
          machine (a 1 CPU machine is sufficient) so that the admin server, the
          configuration information, and all of the applications are installed on
          a machine that is not handling traffic. This not only makes the admin
          server more responsive and potentially not accessible to other users, it
          keeps all of the configuration information on a machine that is less
          likely to crash since it isn't really doing anything most of the time.
          In addition, the admin server is not currently clusterable so you should
          install it on a non-clustered server.
          Just my two cents,

Can "System.capabilities.os" be made to believe it's running on a different OS?

Can "System.capabilities.os" be made to believe it's running on a different OS? Anyone know how it determines the OS?

Confused yet?
I am going to save it to usb thumb drive.
The question is, you are going to save what to the flash drive? You have three choices:
The native .ai file
A copy of the .ai file as PDF which has embeded in it a copy of the native AI content
A copy of the .ai file as PDF which does not have embedded in it a copy of the native AI content
An then show it to a friend on his AI on a different computer....
If your friend is going to open the native .ai file, the Brushes will be defined in the .ai file, and everything will be as it was on your computer. Brushes are not like fonts; they are not stored in some central location on your computer. As soon as you use a Brush in an Illustrator document (even if you open a separate so-called Brush Library) it gets added to the current document's Brushes palette. So it goes along with the file.
If your friend is going to open a PDF that was saved with the Maintain Illustrator Edtiability option turned off, then he will be opening only the PDF content, which will be an "expanded" version of the Brush artwork. The artwork is "dumbed down" to basic path constructs that PDF understands; the "live" nature of the Brush functionality will be gone.
If your friend is going to open a PDF that was saved with the Maintain Illustrator Edtiabiltiy option turned on, then the PDF content will be completely ignored and he will actually be opening a copy of the native AI file that is embedded in the PDF. If that PDF were opened in Acrobat, placed in InDesign, etc., then the embedded .ai file would be ignored and only the dumbed-down PDF content would be opened or imported.
I am NOT asking if I can use these custom brushes on a different computer...
Really, you are. If your friend is going to open the .ai file or a PDF that has the .ai file embedded, then the Brushes will be defined in the .ai file that he opens, and he will be able to use them.

WebDynpro calling another WebDynpro running on a different System

Hi,
I have a two WebDynpro components(WDComp1 and WDComp2) running on two different WAS Server (System1 and System2). I want to call WDComp2 running on System2 from WDComp1 running on System1.
Any suggestions are appericated.
Thanks in advance

I think the only way you may call maybe through a URL to the second application

Can Forms 9i run on a different Application Server, e.g. Apache?

Can Forms/Reports 9i run on a different Application Server, e.g. Apache? i.e. without needing to use 9iAS.
It is quoted in the document "Migrating Client/Server to the web" that it may be possible, but will not be supported. Is this possible?
The reason I ask this is due to the costs involved of 9iAS. If I can use an alternative route like Apache / Tomcat, it's free. Then I only need the developer suite licensing.
Thanks,
Jacques

Just so you'll know Oracle9iAS also includes apache as the HTTP server.
As Suncan said, if you want to use Forms on the Web you need the Forms Server engine, and it comes bundled in Oracle9iAS. You'll save yourself a lot of headache if you just install Oracle9iAS and have everything pre-configured for you thus reducing maintanance costs.

Problem scheduling procedure to run at 3 different times

I created the following statement to have a simple procedure to run at 3 different time.
repeat_interval => 'freq=DAILY; BYHOUR=12,13,14;',
The job runs the moment I schedule it but I did not see it kick off at the other times.
What did I do wrong and I check the time of the db

END;

Hi,
you didn't set the minutes. So they are derived from the start date. Probably the job will start at some time between 12 and 13

Start Dates and Repeat Intervals The Scheduler retrieves the date and time from the job or schedule start date and incorporates them as defaults into the repeat_interval. For example, if the specified frequency is yearly and there is no BYMONTH or BYMONTHDAY clause in the repeat interval, then the month and day that the job runs on are retrieved from the start date. Similarly, if frequency is monthly but there is no BYMONTHDAY clause in the repeat interval, then the day of the month that the job runs on is retrieved from the start date. If present, BYHOUR, BYMINUTE, and BYSECOND defaults are also retrieved from the start date, and used if those clauses are not specified.
