Script to Shutdwon and startup Oracle instance

Hi
Can any one tell how to create a batch file to shutdwon or startup Oracle instance in NT server ?
Yasir

Assume you are using ora8i and the script file is called start.bat and shutdown.bat. Their contents are as follows:
cd %ORAHOME%
set oracle_sid=%SID%
%ORAHOME%\bin\svrmgrl
connect internal/password
startup pfile=%init_file_path%
exit
cd %ORAHOME%
set oracle_sid=%SID%
%ORAHOME%\bin\svrmgrl
connect internal/password
shutdown immediate
exit
Please replace %ORAHOME% and %SID% with related string.
Thanks

Script to Stop and Start Oracle Meter Data Management

Hi,
This is my first post in Oracle forums so if i open this in the wrong thread please forgive me.
I tried to create a windows batch script to stop and start Oracle Meter Data Management but i can´t.
@echo off
D:\spl\MDMDEV\bin\splenviron.cmd -e MDMDEV
D:\spl\MDMDEV\bin\spl.cmd stop
D:\spl\MDMDEV\bin\splenviron.cmd -e MDMDEV
D:\spl\MDMDEV\bin\spl.cmd stop
The batch exits in the first command and i can´t understand why.
Another thing is if i use spl.cmd stop command it doesn´t do nothing, is this normal?
Thanks in advanced for all replies.
Best Regards.
Nuno

I had to put a call command in mine. I think it is because you are trying to run a .cmd file within your bat file. You're actually changing shells. Thats why you need the call.
call d:\spl\mdmdev\bin\splenviron.cmd -e mdmdev
call d:\spl\mdmdev\bin\spl.cmd start
I actually set mine up to use variables so all I had to change from script to script was the environment...
<snip>
SET SPLENV=MDMDEV
SET INSTALLDRIVE=D:
SET INSTALLDIR=SPL
SET BINDIR=%INSTALLDRIVE%\%INSTALLDIR%\%SPLENV%\bin
%INSTALLDRIVE%
cd %BINDIR%
REM Set envornment
call %BINDIR%\splenviron.cmd -e %SPLENV%
REM Wait a few seconds for environment to setup
ping localhost -n 5 > nul
REM Start SPL Web
call %BINDIR%\spl.cmd start
</snip>
I was unable to find a way to get this to run as a service. Have you?
I'm currently running these scripts in the startup/shutdown script section of the local machine policy (gpedit.msc).

Tools and Script for stopping and starting SAP instances in the landscape

Hi All,
All our SAP system are on Windows 2003 and very few on Windows 2000.
Is there any possiblity for having a script which will stop and start SAP on all the instances in the Landscape from a central system?
Lets say we have some 200 SAP instances and we need to down all the instances for Windows patching.
In this case, we need to manually take remote desktop to stop and start all the instances one by one.
Also, do we have any 3rd party automated tools for this purpose?
Regards,
Siva.

Hi Siva,
You can configure ACC for your system landscape.

Unable to start Oracle Instance via "dbstart"

I've successfully loaded Oracle 11g on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3. I'm now trying to start the instance and database using the "dbstart". The command does not start the instance successfully or the database. I've pasted the results from the log below:

Switchover between primary RAC and standby single instance

Hello All,
I am using Oracle 11gR2.
I am trying to do a switch over between primary database (RAC 2 nodes) and physical standby (single instance)
If my Primary is single instance i was following the below steps:
On the standby
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT;
On the primary database:
alter database commit to switchover to standby with session shutdown;
shutdown immediate;
startup nomount;
alter database mount standby database;
On the standby again:
alter database commit to switchover to primary WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN;
On the new standby:
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;now, and since my primary is RAC when i am trying switch over I am getting the below error:
SQL> alter database commit to switchover to standby with session shutdown;
alter database commit to switchover to standby with session shutdown
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01105: mount is incompatible with mounts by other instancesPlus that when I want to apply the remaining steps (below step), should I do it on each instance alone? or is there anyway to do it using the srvctl command:
alter database mount standby database;Regards,

Hi,
Since You are using 2 node RAc as primary, so for switchover operation you need to shutdown
one database instance( Suppose instance 2).
Suppose your node1:
hostname is dcpdb1
and node 2:
hostname is dcpdb2
and standby hostname is drpdb1
So follow this steps for switchover .
How to Switchover from Primary to Standby Database?
Process:
On the primary server, check the latest archived redo log and force a log switch.

How to restart Oracle instance from oracle client

I have an Oracle server 10g with DEVEL instance on AIX machine. I have an Oracle Client on Windows machine as well. I want to stop and start the instance DEV from my client using bat file. Is it possible ? Is anybody knows how to do it ?
KP>

well, right now the correct question should be : how to start database.
I am able to login as sysdba to DEVEL on AIX ( from Windows client) and shutdown it but when I try to startup it returns such a message:
ORA-12505: TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor
but I am still able to tnsping my DEVEL from client ...Post listener status, its contents and entry tnsnames.ora file. Here is how I got connected shutdown and started. The process I followed:
1)Made entry in listener.ora file as I said earlier, restarted the listener
2)Made change in tnsnames.ora file
3)Connect from client shutdown and started.

Could not able to startup the instance

After shutdown the instance, I could not able to starup the instance. ORA-12203 TNS:UNABLE TO CONNECT TO DESTINATION ,error showing. Database already down, then how to make to startup.

ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination
Cause: Invalid address specified or destination is not listening. This error can also occur because of underlying network or network transport problems.
Action: Verify that the net service name you entered was correct. Verify that the ADDRESS portion of the connect descriptor which corresponds to the net service name is correct. Ensure that the destination process (for example the listener) is running at the remote node.
Connect with your server. Export ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID. Then login with SQLPLUS as sysdba and startup the instance.

Reducing physical RAM consumption by oracle instance in my laptop

I wanted to reduce the amount of RAM consumed by my Oracle Instance in my machine.
OS: Windows Server 2003

You can reduce SGA_MAX_SIZE as well as increase it, but it requires instance restart. The reason you cannot change it is that you have SGA_TARGET set to a higher value, or total value of these parameters is larger than your value for SGA_MAX_SIZE:
shared_pool_size
large_pool_size
java_pool_size
db_cache_size
By the way, if you want to reclaim memory for your OS, you shouldn't worry about SGA_MAX_SIZE. Decrease SGA_TARGET instead.

About oracle instance

Heloo ....
I want to know informtaion about oracle instance.
What is Instance?
what is link between instance and database?
How to create instance?

You should check Oracle Concept for the answers.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/intro.htm#sthref83
An Oracle database is a collection of data treated as a unit.
The database has logical structures and physical structures. Because the physical and logical structures are separate, the physical storage of data can be managed without affecting the access to logical storage structures.
What is Instance?The combination of the background processes and memory buffers is called an Oracle instance.
what is link between instance and database?An Oracle database server consists of an Oracle database and an Oracle instance. Every time a database is started, a system global area (SGA) is allocated and Oracle background processes are started. The combination of the background processes and memory buffers is called an Oracle instance.
How to create instance? use DBCA create a database then you can start the instance.

Different ways to shutdown and startup instance in 10g

I have just installed 10g on my win2003 server. There seems to be 3 different ways to shutdown / startup an instance in 10g.
1. via SQLPLUS (how its always been) with shutdown and startup commands
2. via the new OEM Web interface
3. Start / Stop the NT Service for the instance
questions:
- Did I miss anything other methods?
- how come OEM ask for O/S login as well as DB login, when shutdown or startup? but via SQLPLUS I only have to login using as DBA? different level of security?
- When shutdown via either SQLPLUS or OEM, the NT service is still shown as "started"? so does this mean that the NT service is more than the oracle instance???
Thanks
Clo

how come OEM ask for O/S login as well as DB loginWith SQL*Plus, you are already logged into the Operating System. There is a OS session in progress. With OEM web interface, it has to first start a OS session and then connect to Oracle using Oracle credentials supplied to actually shutdown the DB.
the NT service is still shown as "started"? The difference between NT service started or not started (given that the database was already shutdown) will be:
When NT service is started but the DB is shutdown, your users will get this error message:
Enter user-name: scott
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
Enter user-name:When NT service is stopped, your users will get this error message:
Enter user-name: scott
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
Enter user-name:The NT service needs to be running for you to be able to do a STARTUP or SHUTDOWN on the database. You will NOT be able to STARTUP if the NT service was not running (STARTUP will not start your NT service automatically).

DEV and QA within single oracle instance

We need to have our DEV and QA in a single oracle instance. Scripts that refer to tables names in DEV will be copied over to QA for QA testing when unit testing in DEV has been completed. In DEV, we extract data from 5 source systems, one for each US state, which use the same application so the source table names are identical, and therefore in our staging area we have a schema per state such as TX, GA, MD and we extract data into staging tables that are identical to the source tables. Since we do cross state aggregation our scripts have to refer to TX.employee and GA.employee in the same sql statement.
What is the best design for this using SCHEMAS, VIRTUAL PRIVATE DATABASES, VIEWS , SYNONYMS etc?
Thanks in anticipation

Just for my knowledge, if I did find myself in this situation would VIRTUAL PRIVATE DATABASES make sense here?I suppose you could potentially use VPD. But that would create major problems if you ever wanted to make schema changes-- you couldn't add a new column to a table in DEV, for example, without that column also being available in QA. You couldn't have code in DEV that didn't exist in QA. I suppose you could get really fancy and use 11g's edition-based redefinition to have a dev edition and a qa edition but I'd hate to think how you'd promote code to prod in that sort of environment. Plus, editions is an enterprise feature (at least, I'm not sure if it's an extra-cost option) which would tend to be beyond the pocketbook of a company trying to save on licensing costs by combining dev & qa in a single non-VM server (let alone in the same instance).
You could potentially have your application use all dynamic SQL so that dev could use the DEV_TX schema while QA used the QA_TEX schema and it was just the TX schema in prod, but that obviously gets old really fast. You could create a single set of synonyms so that the TX_FOO synonym points to DEV_TX.FOO for the dev users and TEST_TX.FOO for the test users but then you'd have to remove the schema qualifiers from all your SQL statements.
In short, an application like you describe trying to share an instance would be a rather massive undertaking.
