Not able to stop database using srvctl

When i stop database using srvctl from node1.. "srvctl stop database -d mosa" it does not stop. I tried "srvctl stop database -d mosa -o immediate" but to no luck. Could anybody help me on this issue.
OS = HP-UX
Database = Oracle 9i
Instance1 = mosa1
Instance2 = mosa2
node1 = hp1
node2 = hp2
DB Size = 50GB
I have opened another session to check srvctl status
$srvctl status database -d mosa
Instance mosa1 is not running on node hp_data1
Instance mosa2 is running on node hp_data2
NOTE:- BEfore i stop database, i had stopped listener.
Regards,
Vikhar

Thank you , issue is solved.
After i give below given command, i checked the status by
$srvctl status database -d dbname
$Instance mosa1 is not running in node1
$Instance mosa1 is running in node2
It means PROBLEM with instance2
I have got following error message in alert_log file
attempting to shut down the database and the database hangs at $srvctl stop database -d dbname. The alert log contains the following message:
SHUTDOWN: Waiting for active calls to complete
There are no other error messages in the alert log.
+Solution Description:
=====================
Caveat: This note is intended for Unix platforms primarily, but we should
address this issue on Windows platforms as well. On Windows, stopping the
service is a valid workaround for these errors.
Locate and kill any client connections to the database at the Unix level, as
follows:
1. Locate any client connections to the database using ps, and grep for any
processes belonging to this .
Example: ps -ef | grep V733
2. Look for processes that include a 'Local=No' designation.
Example: osupport 6235 1 0 Nov 24 0:01 oracleV733 (LOCAL=NO)
3. Kill the Unix process(es) with the 'Local=No' designation.
Example: Kill -9 6235
Explanation:
============
The database is waiting for pmon to clean up processes, but pmon is unable to
clean them. The client connections to the server are causing the shutdown
immediate or normal to hang. Killing them allows pmon to clean up and release
the associated Oracle processes and resources+
What resources are we talking about?
1) Any non committed transactions must be rolled back
2) Any temporary space (sort segments / lobs / session temporary tables) must be freed
3) The session itself and any associated memory consumed by the session.
4) Internal locks / enqueues must be cleaned up
Often Oracle (SMON or PMON depending on whether Shared Server is used) will wait for the OS to terminate the process(es) associated with the session. I the OS never returns, or fails to terminate them, then the instance shutdown will hang with this message (Shutdown Waiting for Active Calls to Complete) Other means exist to achieve a quick shutdown.
Thank you so much for your efforts.

How to solve the problem of "promotion failed"

Hello,
I am new to JVM tuning, could anybody help me and explain how to solve a problem of "promotion failed" as following? (Java 1.6 and the JVM options: -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m ):
[GC 96800.304: [ParNew (promotion failed): 287552K->287552K(287552K), 0.8694459 secs]96801.174: [CMS: 5229568K->457193K(5971968K), 19.7176579 secs] 5499429K->457193K(6259520K), [CMS Perm : 66540K->66458K(110904K)], 20.5878599 secs] [Times: user=22.50 sys=0.03, real=20.59 secs]
bevor: 96755.515: [GC 96755.515: [ParNew: 287552K->31936K(287552K), 0.1900583 secs] 5491052K->5243813K(6259520K), 0.1905515 secs] [Times: user=2.21 sys=0.00, real=0.19 secs]
after: 96885.774: [GC 96885.774: [ParNew: 255484K->31936K(287552K), 0.0808239 secs] 712678K->490703K(6259520K), 0.0812894 secs] [Times: user=0.97 sys=0.01, real=0.08 secs]
my questions:
1. why did the promotion failed when the old generation apears to have enough space (5229568+287552=5517120 < 5971968)? muss "promotion failed" by all means be handelt?
2. [CMS: 5229568K->457193K(5971968K), 19.7176579 secs]: is this full GC and is the time of 19.7176579 really pause (stop the world) time?
3. [CMS Perm : 66540K->66458K(110904K)], 20.5878599 secs]: why ist Permanent space collected too? dit it take a time of 20.5878599-19.7176579=0.870202 ? this action apears to be unnessesary (66540K->66458K), is es possible to disable such aktion?
4. how to solve the problem? I read a post of fixing such problem with XX:SurvivorRatio=4 -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=75, But this did not work for my case.
could this problem be due to the fragmentation of old generation space? could the reduce size of PLAB improving reuse of small chunks like -XX:OldPLABSize=16 help in my case? what ist the default value of OldPLABSize of JAVA 6 ? is there any side-effect for the reduce OldPLABSize?
thanks a lot for any help!
Tian

Looks like your old generation has become fragmented and the old space is almost full, or maybe a promoted object is too huge, and there is not enough continue space. Try following:
1> increase the size of old generation.
2> If increase the size of old generation doesnt work , you may try to use G1 algorithm, it may reduce the fragment problem of old generation.
Thanks

Problems using Quick Migrate in SQL Developer 1.5 for MySQL to Oracle 10g

Hi all,
I am trying to use SQL Developer 1.5 migration tools (Quick Migrate) to perform online capture and build source model to migrate from MySQL 5.x to Oracle 10g on Windows platform. I get these errors and the Quick Migrate process fails:
oracle.dbtools.metadata.persistence.PersistableObject.doInsert(PersistableObject.java:238)
I did a search and used the sqldeveloper.cmd script but still fails. Then I created a new database and truncated the repository. I now get the above error plus two new ones listed below:
oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
Error occurred during capture: Protocol violation
It fails during the capture process for MySQL 5.1 database
when it begins to capture the tables from MySQL.
Does anyone know how to resolve these issues when migrating from MySQL to Oracle 10g using Quick Migrate with SQL Developer 1.5 release?
Regards,
Ben Prusinski

Hi all,
I put the following in my sqldeveloper.cmd file:
SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
What is very confusing is that with SQL Developer 1.5, there are several levels and several SQL Developer executables! I am really not sure which of these to use:
I created the SQLDeveloper 1.5 directory called SQLDeveloper1_5 on Windows:
1) cd C:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338
there exists a sqldeveloper.exe
2) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe
3) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloer\bin\sqldeveloper.exe
Which SQLDeveloper 1.5 executable should I be using and where should I place the
sqldeveloper.cmd file?
Also I did try to use a different database and schema for the repository with Quick Migrate but it appears a bug exists in SQL Developer 1.5 version that causes errors with Quick Migrate for MySQL to Oracle? Is this correct?
As an update, I ran the following commands:
cd to
c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin
sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
Start sqldeveloper.exe
Perform standard capture for MySQL using the new mig2 schema as the new repository
It starts the capture but fails on the errors below:
Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
UPDATE
============================
I tried this again and it worked with the exception of one error message listed below:
Here are the steps that I followed:
1. Create a Windows cmd script
Put the following entries in the script:
SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
save the command windows script as sqldeveloper.cmd
Copy this script to the base installation directory for SQLDeveloper
Example:
1. cd c:\SQLDeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper
2. Start SQLDeveloper with the command script that you created earlier
Example:
Open a Windows shell prompt window and execute the following scripts:
a) sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
b) sqldeveloper.exe
3) In SQL Developer 1.5
From the Migrate menu,
a) Delete current repository and create a new schema in Oracle target database call it mig2.
b) Then create a new repository in SQL Developer 1.5
c) Right mouse click on the MySQL 5.x database and choose capture
It worked with the exception of one error message:
o.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
Error while registering Oracle JDBC Diagnosability MBean.
So it looks like something is screwed up with my JDBC drivers and configuration for MySQL. How do I diagnose the JDBC driver issue for MySQL?
Thanks!!!

[Solved][Hal and Partitions] Newbie problem with hal policy

Hello everybody,
As a new user of archlinux for less than a week I have experienced a great distribution after having been for 1 year on Linux.
After installation I was able to solve most of my problems with the wiki and the forums but there is one problem I cannot resolve.
I have installed Kde 4.2 on my computer and I can mount Usb drives, or CDs with hal (It is in the daemons section of my rc.conf) but strangely I cannot access my other partitions such as my Ubuntu partition (ext3), or the family's Windows partition (Nfts). I have installed nfts-3g for the nfts partition hal refuses to let me access it, I will give you what Dolphin says when I try to access the Nfts:
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: hal-storage-mount-fixed-extra-options no <-- (actions,result)
And for the ext3
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: hal-storage-mount-fixedauth_admin_keep_always <-- (actions,result)
I don't really understand what It means but normally I am allowed to mount partitions.
My /etc/PolycyKit/PolicyKit.conf: http://pastebin.com/m57e94025
And my /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf: http://pastebin.com/m62861179
I've already tried to configure these two with the wiki and the forums but nothing yet.
If you need more information ask me.
Thanks in advance.

You might want to reread the Hal wiki re: Permission Denied with automounter. Your /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf seems to be missing the lines mentioned in the wiki.
Edit: Or maybe it is similair to: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=66008

any help ?

You most likely ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" or "MacCleanse" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.
The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

I use the adm user. Which logs should I provide because I can´t seem to find a log that tracks the MMC steps.

Using quick time videos (for web)

Hi guys,
In my project I am using quick time videos within director,
which work fine when it is published and play back in the
projector. However when I export for web, the videos don't play
back in the web browser. Is there something I am missing when
exporting?
Many thanks,
Rich

Yeah, I did upload them in their relative folder. They are
about 15MB each and 30 seconds long. I don't have a "dswmedia"
foler, what do I need to do with that? The error message I get
is...

No virtu support in msi z77a gd55: how to use quick sync then?

Hello there,
Being unaware at purchase time, i wonder how can i use quick sync of intel when in d-mode with z77A GD55? I ask this because no lucid hydra/virtu from msi download page. I know the cd contains it but it is not offered to be installed since the board is not lucid signed. If i force install it, the software runs in trial mode which is because of no license from the board. Are the virtu and virtu mvp actually different program? If no virtu support so whats the deal with bios settings to control lucid virtu?
Please help, it is with this issue that i have lost confidence using msi board (based on the fact that overclocking sucks too since the latest bios 1.3 vdroop control is useless and no offset voltage). So if this can be solved, i have some positive point to at least retain the board as my own. Thanks.

Quick sync is not a replacement for Virtu. They are two different products.
Quick sync transcodes movies using the Intel IGPU.

Quote
Currently Intel’s Quick Sync transcode is only supported by two applications: Cyberlink’s Media Espresso 6 and Arcsoft’s Media Converter 7. Both of these applications are video to go applications targeted at users who want to take high resolution/high bitrate content and transcode it to more compact formats for use on smartphones, tablets, media streamers and gaming consoles. The intended market is not users who are attempting to make high quality archives of Blu-ray content. As a result, there’s no support for multi-channel audio; both applications are limited to 2-channel MP3 or AAC output. There’s also no support for transcoding to anything higher than the main profile of H.264.

With Virtu you end up with is a system that should run all 3D games on your discrete GPU, and run all video decoding and encoding on SNB's GPU. Since this isn't switchable graphics but rather a form of GPU virtualization you can actually run iGPU and dGPU applications at the same time (e.g. you can watch a movie in one window on the iGPU and play a game in another on the dGPU).

I have AVI files that I need to be MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

I have AVI files that I need to convert to MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....When I have the files open in QT Pro do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

I strongly recommend you use compressor to do the conversion (if it will open the files - since quicktime will open them, it will more than likely do it.
Compressor allows you to customize presets and save them and apply them to multiple files. Although the interface may seem daunting, it's actually pretty simple.
Even if you can edit the avi in fcp, it's not a good idea. Liable to cause problems down the road.

How to detect external SWF has stopped not using totalFrames

Trying to find a way to detect when an externally loaded SWF has stopped. Using "totalFrames" like the example below doesn't work for what I'm trying to accomplish.
I need something that simply listens and detects when the clip has stopped. Editing the external SWF is not an option. Thanks in advance for any insight.
function onfrm( evnt: Event ): void
if (newMC.currentFrame == newMC.totalFrames )
newMC.removeEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, onfrm);
trace("End of banner");

Just did a small test, and at least with loading a swf that has a timeline the totalFrames option works fine:
var m:MovieClip;
var a:Loader = new Loader();
a.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
a.load(new URLRequest("anim.swf"));
function done(e:Event):void
m = MovieClip(a.content);
m.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, chek);
addChild(m);
function chek(e:Event):void
if(m.currentFrame == m.totalFrames){
trace("done");
m.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, chek);
