SAP fresh installation with Oracle 11.2

Dear all,
Do you know if it's already possible to install a new SAP system with Oracle 11.2.
I'm trying to install Solution Manager 7.0 ehp1 with Oracle 11.2.
The problem is that SAPINST does not give me the possibility to choose oracle version 11.2. Only 10.2 is possible. (I patched SAPINST to the last version)
If I select 10.2 SAPINST gives an error "The DB Home folder I:\oracle\PSM\112 has not the correct DB Server version 102. Select a different DB Home folder or install the correct database server software."
Could anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Olivier

Hello,
New installations of systems running with Oracle 11.2 are planned to be certified by early Q4 2010.
For key information on the status of Oracle 11.2 database, read SAP Notes 1398634 and 1434131.
Thanks & regards,

Problem in SAP Server installation with Oracle DB

Hi,
We are working in SAP Server installation with Oracle DB. After some steps in our Process it is asking for a DVD called RDBMS DVD CLIENT ORACLE. We are trying to download in Service market place. But we could not get the Correct DVD for the installation. Please help in this issue. Where do we get the DVD to continue our SAP Server installation.
We are struck with our SAP Server installation. Please consider this issue as very urgent.
thanks in advance.

Mohankumar.G

Hello Mohan,
Please specify which installation your are doing otherwise it is difficult to provide you
the correct path.
For eg if you are doing NW04's installation then path will be
downloads->entry by application group->Installations and Upgrades->SAP NetWeaver-> SAP NETWEAVER-> SAP NETWEAVER 2004S->according to OS/DB (there is oracle client cd)select the cd.
hope it helps..

SAP BO Installation with Oracle Database

Hello all,
My client uses SAP R/3 with Oracle database. Now we have to install Business Objects on another machine.
I've read the documentation on Installing Procedures but there are some questions still not clarified.
1. Do I have to install Oracle in the new machine?
2. If not, can I connect BOBJ to the database of the SAP R/3 Server?
3. If I want to have three systems (Like in R/3, Productive, Tests and Development) do I have to install BOBJ in different machines?
Thanks in advance,
Regards

1. you dont have to insall Oracle database at the BO machine side, you just need any database to hold the BO repository.
2. you cant connect directly using BO, only Crystal reports can connect directly to R3 database, you need to have a BW in between.
extract your data into the BW, and let BO connect to BW using the BO integration kit for SAP solutions.
3. no you dont have to have 3 different machines, using one BO machine you connect to them all, but you may need build a BO environment, (Development, Production servers)
good luck

SAP ECC6.0 installation with Oracle RAC

Hi Expert,
Current we working on SAP ECC6.0 installation with Oracle 10G RAC on AIX 5.3. The RAC are running on two nodes (servers). And we are using GPFS filesystem (not running on HACMP).
Overall we had completed the Oracle RAC installation (CRS+RDBMS) and tested the oracle failover and it work find. Now we want to start with the SAP installation (with HA). In the SAP installation documentation, it did request to create a virtual hostname on the node and execute the sapinst scripts with below command line.
#./sapinst SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=ascs00
But if we are running on Oracle RAC + GPFS do we need to specify the virtual hostname? If not, which hostname i should use to install the HA for SAP? Please advice.
Regards.

And then I'd continue with the documentation at:
SAP on Oracle => SAP on Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC)
There you can find several installation guides for windows/UNIX/Linux

Question about SAP installation with Oracle 10g

I have successfully installed Oracle 10g on Windows server 2008 R2 64bit. I can connect to the database using mysql or through command prompt and run SQL commands.
I started installing the SAP EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 ("51038620_13 BS 7 SR1 Installation Master Windows Server on x64 64bit") The installation goes very smooth. I choose the SAPSID and the DBSID sid, but then it gives an error stating to install oracle and continue or stop the installation & install Oracle. I have tried on continuing the installation since Oracle is already installed but I get the same message again and again.
Does it have to do with ORACLE 10g Sid. My Oracle SID is set to "ORCL" should it be the same as DBSID (during SAP Installation). Or the Oracle needs to be installed after SAP installation gets to the point for Oracle Installation. Please assist what needs to be changed. I can reinstall Oracle if needed. Any tips or comments would be nice.

> Does it have to do with ORACLE 10g Sid. My Oracle SID is set to "ORCL" should it be the same as DBSID (during SAP Installation). Or the Oracle needs to be installed after SAP installation gets to the point for Oracle Installation.
You can't "change". You installed the Oracle software using "setup.exe" - which is wrong. You also created an example database - which is also not correct.
The Oracle software is installed, according to the installation guide, as
- start "sapserver.cmd" on the Oracle DVD (the SAP media)
- install the software according to the installation guide
- install the latest patchset
- install the latest PSU patch
--> and then start sapinst.

SAP NW Installation on Oracle with original Oracle DVDs

Hi all,
I heard that it should be possible to instal SAP NW 7.0 with Oracle DVDs which are not packaged by SAP.
If this would be the case I have 2 questions:
- is this procedure documented (and where)
- would the resulting SAP system supported by SAP
Thanks in advance Gerold

Hello Gerald,
Just be careful, because if you face any issue during the installation no using the SAP DVDs the support may no be able to help you.
Also, one of the most important thing, follow the guide:

SAP SRM Prod with Oracle DB and AIX 5.3 Performance Issue.

Hi Basis Gurus,
Today my SAP PRD system all of a sudden was running slow and users had difficulties executing TCodes as it took minutes before the screen appeared.My system is SAP SRM 4.00, Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 and AIX 5.3.
From Basis point of view , we noticed that all the work process were hanged due to RFCs' occupying it.Couldnt investigate further on the system as we needed to restart asap because users needed to log on. A quick check on SICK shows no errors.What we managed to find out is that we needed to check this parameter below and set it accordingly:-
rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp:-
Definition
Number of work processes kept free for other users.
Use
This parameter is used to reserve a number of dialog work processes for dialog mode. It prevents parallel RFCs from occupying all the processes.
The parameter rdisp/wp_no_dia specifies the absolute number of dialog work processes.
Unit: number of dialog work processes
Default value: 1
Example
If 10 dialog work processes are configured for the instance (rdisp/wp_no_dia = 10) and the parameter rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp = 3 is set, parallel RFCs can occupy a maximun of 7 dialog work processes. Three dialog work processes always remain free for dialog mode.
There are 20 DIA processes in our system, perhaps reserving a minimum of about 5 work processes for DIA users will be useful via the parameter.
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
When we went for a restart of the system we encountered another issue. Steps to the issue are as below:-
1) Did a proper shutdown of Oracle and SAP.
2) When we start using startsap script, it doesn't start DB so we started DB manually but listener was having problem
    so we stopped all.
3) We also did a cleanipc, it too throws below error:-
sidadm> cleanipc <systemno> remove
               exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program cleanipc because of the following errors:
               0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for cleanipc because:
               0509-136   Symbol memmove (number 106) is not exported from
               dependent module /usr/sap/sid/SYS/exe/run/libsapu16.so.
               0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
               'dump -Tv' command.
4) Also the Listener file has no contents,it's null file.
5) This is another error :-
    exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /oracle/sid/112_64/bin/tnslsnr because of the following errors:
    0509-150   Dependent module /oracle/sid/112_64/lib/libttsh11.so could not be loaded.
    0509-101   The module has too many section headers
    or the file is damaged
The libttsh11.so file was empty dated 25th timestamp as below in PRD:-
-rw-rr    1 sid   dba               0 Nov 25 07:12 libttsh11.so
Further checking has let me to understand this is an Oracle Bug from this link:-
http://gavinsoorma.com/2009/12/11-1-0-6-clusterware-upgrade-to-11-1-0-7/
This Oracle bug only happens in an Upgrade time and how could this happen to my Production system during a restart process.
Also this system was restarted during the last weekend's maintainance window and it came up with no issues.
6) We copied over the libttsh11.so from our QA environment to PRD and did a Startup:-
-rwxr-x---    1 sid   dba        65967496 Nov 25 07:40 libttsh11.so (This is the copied over file from QA)
7) After Startup everything has been in order till now.
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before. Hope all the Gurus here could shed some light into my 2 questions as I am looking for positive answers.
Thank you.
Regards,
John

Hi,
Firstly I would suggest you to upgrade your database from Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 to Oracle Release 11.2.0.2 . This is the recommended Oracle 11g database version for SAP solutions. Many of your problem will get resolved with it.
Question 1:
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
For immediate resolution the approach you have followed is correct viz limiting number of dialog processes for RFC. Secondly you need to analyze why RFC processing takes so much time. You need check which programs are getting executed by those RFC.
Generate EarlyWatch report for more detailed view
Question 2:
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before.
The libttsh11.so library cannot be found in the related directory.
Cause
The file system is mounted using CIO option, but per Note 257338.1 Direct I/O (DIO) and Concurrent I/O (CIO) on AIX 5L, an ORACLE_HOME on a filesystem mounted with "cio" option is not supported.
Such a configuration will cause, installation, relinking and other unexpected problems.
Solution
Disable the CIO option on the filesystem.

ECC5 Installation with Oracle 10.2.0.2.0

Dear Experts,
We want to do a Heterogenous Sytem Copy from our ECC5 system landscape on HP-Unix, Oracle 10.2.0.2.0 to win2003 (64 bit), Oracle 10.2.0.2.0. Oracle version needs to be exactly same after migration as under this version our Production system will run for some time before we upgrade to ECC6 & Oracle 11G on Windows 2008.
The PAM says that ECC5 is supported with Oracle 10.2.0.2.0, though not sure if it's supported as a direct Installation to 10.2 or only as a Installation to Oracle 9.2 & followed by a upgrade to Oracle 10.2. The migration media for ECC5 that we have recieved from SAP comes with Oracle 9.2, so wanted to check if a direct Installation of ECC5 on Oracle 10.2.0.2.0 is supported?. If yes is this Oracle Installation DVD for 10.2.0.2.0 downloadable from SMP?.
Thanks
Abhishek

> We want to do a Heterogenous Sytem Copy from our ECC5 system landscape on HP-Unix, Oracle 10.2.0.2.0 to win2003 (64 bit), Oracle 10.2.0.2.0.
Are you aware that you must have a certified migration consultant on-site to do the migration? see http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration --> FAQ

What you need is not an ECC5 installation media but a new netweaver 2004 media containing the support for Oracle 10g, you'll have to do an R3load migration, backup/restore will not work (different endianess source vs. target).

Sap HA installation with Sybase Ase 15.7 (Clustered Environment)

Dear Guru's,
I need advice and suggestions on installation for Sap HA systems on production servers with sybase .
System Specs:
OS:Windows 2008 R2
Database :Sybase ASE 15.7
EHP6
I have referred the note 1650511 and getting started with Sybase Database but its just basic info .I need to know how the clustering will be done with Sybase Ase 15.7 and is it possible??
Appreciate your suggestions

Hi Asim,
1. Datafiles & log files assignment while installation According to the HW partition size for production servers we have assigned 3 data files of 250 gb each in different drives on a server
The existing export we are trying to take is from development system where we have upgraded the stack and compo.nents to latest level so we are planning to take the export copy of for database instance and
the database itself is Syabse Ase 15.7.And at this phase screen according to the screen by default the system ask to assign 102 gb for datafiles and log files 1gb Minimum , so in that case can we no t
assign more log file size .However we have not started the installation and we will expereince the same as we have done on Develeopment and quality system which is central sap system and we need to confirm we if can do for production HA system installation
Yes, you may assign more space in advance to datafiles and log file. What the screen shows is the minimum required space to successfully complete the import.
2.On the other hand , If we are doing fresh HA installation ,it will ask for 90 GB datafile and 10 G by default to assign and in this how we going to assign and split in 3 different drives which is of 150 GB
each.
Your Development system has been patched to latest level. Hence there is change in database size in development as compared to fresh HA setup where no patches have been applied. You may add 3 datafiles in each of these drives and assign the size which you prefer. Ensure its more than 10GB.
3.Getting confused in assigning the CI DI ,ERS ,ASCS on node 1 and node 2.
You may follow this simple approach
Node 1: DB + ERS + CI
Node 2: ASCS + DI
4.Is it good decision to do fresh HA installation on production server and lateron upgrade the stack level or does it matter if do system copy as it will save the time .
There is no issue in going with system copy approach as it will save time. If you are not comfortable with system copy method and do not have good command on DB, I shall suggest you to go with fresh installation and then apply patches. This way you are sure there is no junk coming to your production . In system copy , In case your source system has some junk data, the same might get transferred to production.
Hope this helps.

Can anyone please guide me that what are the extra steps I need to follow for oracle setup before running sap installation instance.
Thanks in advance,
faiq

Hi ,
you didnt not specify which OS you are using,
but anyway i think that you are trying to install SAP on a file system that is not supported by SAP.
For ex: If OS is of Windows family you should have NTFS file system for SAP
Let me know if this helps

SAP GRC integration with Oracle IDAM.

We are looking to implement SAP-ISU and have a proposal to implement a SAP solution which integrates Oracle IDAM (for user provisioning) and SAP GRC. Does anyone have experience of pros/cons, possible pitfalls of this integration.
In addition, there is some debate over whether GRC is actually an unnecessary duplication in this circumstance, as there is a view that Oracle IDAM has the ability to deal with all the role management that GRC will be doing. Would appreciate any views?

Hi Alessandro,
thank you very much for your responce. But as per oracle integration docuemnt we are using stadard SAP web services for this integration peice.

P6 Professional 8.3 installation with Oracle Database

Hi All,
I had query about P6 professional installtion.
If i select Driver type "Microsoft SQL Server" system is allowing me to enter "Host Name" of database server.
But if i select Driver type "Oracle" it is not asking for Host Name of database server.
If my database is present on other server how to give server name here?

Hi,
This is down to a fundamental difference between SQL Server and Oracle.
SQL Server is pretty much always referenced with servername and database name (and the port number unless the \<instance name> is used as part of the server name)
Oracle uses more of an 'Alias' (TNS Names).
If you ever need to start working with Oracle DB Standard or Enterprise edition then you will soon learn to be configuring the tnsnames.ora file (which is where you will find the 'Alias' mapped to the server and database name).

Alex
