Steps to remove entrie Oracle 10gR2 (10.2.0.4) RAC on linux

Hi Gurus,
We have 10gR2 RAC (10.2.0.4) is running on RHEL5.5 on development servers. I would like to set up 11gR2(11.2.0.3) RAC on these development servers. Could you please let me know the steps to cleanup existing 10g RAC on these 2 node RAC.
My existing 10g RAC details are as follows
No of nodes 2
<RDBMS_HOME> for oracle binaries
<ASM_HOME> for AMS binaries
<CLUSTER_HOME> for clusterware home
ASM for storage
Thanks
Masoom

A simple Google search turns up this documentation source: [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/rac.111/b28255/votocr.htm#BGBGDHFG|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/rac.111/b28255/votocr.htm#BGBGDHFG]
You have to stop the node applications and the CRS stack, then use SRVCTL to change the public IP addresses and OIFCFG to change the private ones. The doc provides detailed steps.

Oracle White Paper- Storage Option for RAC. on Linux

hi..
This in reference with White Paper.. Stotage Option for RAC on LINUX. Author- Umadevi Byrappa.
Which states on page 10: To Use NAS for RAC database file storage select the file system storage option in OUI. or the Clustered file system storage option in DBCA.
With which i disagree. File storage option of oracle 10g RAC only shows.
1. Clustered File system.
2. ASM
3. Raw Devices.
When i try to select Cfs and select the shared directory on NFS it says. < Directory_Name> is not a clustered file system or Shared on Both <Server_1> < Server_2>. and at this point of time i m stuck.
1. I dont want to use OCFS as its not supporting NAS.
2. Selecting CFS doesnt recognise mounted shared volume as valid storage device option can only store OCRfile and CSS file.
3. So, I have to use ASM.. with zero padded files..which i dont want to because no other option. ( PART NO. B10766-02 PAGE C-6)
Also, I would like oracle to provide Back up Recovery Option or Document which tells me how could i Recover Database when i use Zero Padded Files.
What would be the best Option in the above scenario ?
I hope by applying patch or with workaround somehow it shows Filesystem ONLY.I'll be the happiest man in this Case.
Any suggestions and corrections are most welcome. I wish i m wrong.

NFS isn't a clustered file system at all - by RFC it is an exported file system with access controls
If your vendor offers an NFS solution over and beyond that - more power to them. However that isn't "NFS"..
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3010.html
You can use NFS in a clustered server environment (to mount apps, read only data and for synchronous access to files), however it doesn't support the concurrency out of the box for RDBMS transactions - if a vendor is supporting this promise then that is for you to decide.
However i stand by my statement that NFS is a file system exported across your network and not a full clustered file system.

Generic Connectivity -Oracle(10gR2) to MS SQL server - Creating DSN

Hi,
I am trying to connect Oracle 10gR2(10.2.0.4.0) on linux x86 to MS Sql Server on Windows XP
I am referring the Metalink Note 264567.1 and using DataDirect ODBC drivers for the same
I have a question here
Do I need to create the System DSN on windows XP or on Oracle (linux server)?
If it is on linux server, how to I create the System DSN on the Linux?
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Pk

Hi,
You need to create a DSN on the box where the HSODBC (the oracle db) is running, so in this case the Linux box.
I'd assume there's documentation that comes with the 3rd party odbc driver on how to create a DSN with it. It probably depends on which version of driver manager you're using (pardon my ignorance, I do strictly Windows) so you'd probably want to check the docs for the driver manager. For example, if using unixODBC, the docs are on [their web site|http://www.unixodbc.org/].
Hope it helps,
Greg

call dbms_java.grant_permission( 'WS_TEST', 'SYS:java.net.SocketPermission', '127.0.0.1:8084', 'connect,resolve' );
As I wrote earlier, WS_TEST is my user into which I load JAX-RPC client. Note that, if you load JAX-RPC client into user another than SYS, you have NOT to use -s -grant public option (wassam wrote about this too). Another thing is that I (finally) didn't load OC4J. To consume WebService I use utl_dbws.invoke(call_Handle CALL, request SYS.XMLTYPE) function.

Remove an oracle home entry from the central repository

Does anyone know how to remove an oracle home entry from the central repository (inventory.xml file), after the oracle home in question has been deleted. It is left behind and I want to clean it up.
thanks

I went to the link you have posted and it did not help me.
I cannot get rid of my Oracle Home directory. When I attempt to delete this folder, I
get an error message:
oci.dll ...is write protected or in use..
So I deleted this oci.dll file. Then I rebooted and tried to delete the OraHome directory (folder)
again, and I get the SAME error!!
Thanks for any advice.

Oracle 10gR2 Automated Storage Management implementation on CentOS 4.1

Actually there are several nice articles on Oracle Technical Network devoted to the same topic. Whats new may be said ?
The target of this message is to highlight the optimal sequence of steps required to bring Oracle10g (10.2.0.1) ASM-database up on CentOS4.1 , placing ASM instance and serviced databases in different Oracle Homes.Oracleasm library install is done immediately after creating "oracle" linux account and "dba" group to be ready for ASM Instance creating during the first Installer run supposed to build it. ASM instance for disks and disks group management is created the first by Installer along with the disks group for database supposed to be built during the second run of Installer and to be placed into recently created disks group.
I. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and ASMLib 2.0 I/O.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/wtfdata
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
OTN instruction:-
Before installing Automatic Storage Management, it is recommended that you install the optional add-on Automatic Storage Management support library, ASMLib. ASMLib is an application program interface (API) Oracle that is aimed at simplifying the interface between the operating system and the database, and to exploit the capabilities and strengths of storage arrays provided by different vendors ASMLib provides an alternative interface for the Automatic Storage Management-enabled kernel to discover and access block devices. It provides storage and operating system vendors the opportunity to supply extended storage-related features. These features provide benefits such as improved performance and greater data integrity.
OTN instruction ends.
3.To install ASMLIB 2.0 run as root:-
# rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.6.9-11.ELsmp-2.0.0-1.i686.rpm \
oracleasmlib-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
oracleasm-support-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm
Now you get /etc/init.d/oracleasm ready to go.
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver:-
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure
Default user to own the driver interface [oracle]: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface [dba]: dba
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Fix permissions of Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: [ OK ]
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm enable
Create ASM disks as desired utilizing command:
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VLM0X /dev/sdx
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login, /etc/profile.
and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
OTN instructions:-
Its recommended that you install Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home, regardless of whether you plan to only have one or multiple database instances.Installing Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home helps ensure higher availability and manageability.With separate Oracle homes, you can upgrade Automatic Storage Management and databases independently, and you can remove database software without impacting the Automatic Storage Management instance. Ensure that the Automatic Storage Management version is the same or later than the Oracle Database version.If an Automatic Storage Management installation does not already exist and you select the Oracle Universal Installer option to install and configure Automatic Storage Management only, then Oracle Universal Installer installs Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home.
OTN instruction ends.
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
Create disk group during this run .
Exit installer.
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed into existing disk's group in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_2 .
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.

Install described above was done with different Oracle Homes
for ASM instance and ASM-database.
To put ASM instance and ASM-database in same Oracle Home.
Start runInstaller just once to build all stuff at a time.
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
Select " Advanced option" and install "Software only"
in ORACLE_HOME - /u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1.
Modify oracle's .bash_profile:-
export ORACLE_HOME and new PATH.
Source new .bash_profile:-
$. ~oracle/.bash_profile
$dbca
During this run the request to start CRS daemons by root will come up.
# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/localconfig add
ASM instance , needed disk's groups and ASM-database itself will be created.
Then perform listener and local TNS names configuration.

II. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and Standard Linux I/O.
This method creates Oracle database files on raw character devices managed by ASM using standard Linux I/O system calls.It requires to create RAW devices for all disk partitions used by ASM.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/data
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
Just as an example create 4 partitions:
/dev/hda6,/dev/hdc6 5 GB each one
/dev/hda7,/dev/hdc7 3 GB each one
Create raw devices modifying file /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices as follows:
/dev/raw/raw1 /dev/hda6
/dev/raw/raw2 /dev/hdc6
/dev/raw/raw3 /dev/hda7
/dev/raw/raw4 /dev/hdc7
Put in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
chown oracle:dba /dev/raw/raw*
chmod 660 /dev/raw/raw*
I was experiencing problems with loosing "oracle:dba" permissions after Linux
reboot. Oracle's raw device came up with "root:disk" ownership after reboot.
Restart Linux
Run as root:-
# service rawdevices restart
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login,
/etc/profile and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/asm
During this run create diskgroup RAWDATA1 with normal redundancy
mirroring /dev/raw/raw1 and /dev/raw/raw2.
You should be fine with discovering raw devices if permissions are in place (oracle:dba)
Exit installer.
Export ORACLE_HOME for ASM instance and corresponding PATH.
Then run "dbca" to create diskgroup RAWDATA2 with
normal redundancy mirroring /dev/raw/raw3 and /dev/raw/raw4
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed RAWDATA1 diskgroup
in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1.
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.

Starting Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control ........................ started.
Logs are generated in directory /u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_2/ServerCentOS41_MastDB/sysman/log
Install described above was done with different Oracle Homes
for ASM instance and ASM-database.
To put ASM instance and ASM-database in same Oracle Home.
Start runInstaller just once to build all stuff at a time.
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
Select " Advanced option" and install "Software only"
in ORACLE_HOME - /u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1.
Modify oracle's .bash_profile:-
export ORACLE_HOME and new PATH.
Source new .bash_profile:-
$. ~oracle/.bash_profile
$dbca
During this run the request to start CRS daemons by root will come up.
# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/localconfig add
ASM instance , needed disk's groups and ASM-database itself will be created.
Then perform listener and local TNS names configuration.
$netca
II. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and Standard Linux I/O.
This method creates Oracle database files on raw character devices managed by ASM using standard Linux I/O system calls.It requires to create RAW devices for all disk partitions used by ASM.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/data
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
Just as an example create 4 partitions:
/dev/hda6,/dev/hdc6 5 GB each one
/dev/hda7,/dev/hdc7 3 GB each one
Create raw devices modifying file /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices as follows:
/dev/raw/raw1 /dev/hda6
/dev/raw/raw2 /dev/hdc6
/dev/raw/raw3 /dev/hda7
/dev/raw/raw4 /dev/hdc7
Put in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
chown oracle:dba /dev/raw/raw*
chmod 660 /dev/raw/raw*
I was experiencing problems with loosing "oracle:dba" permissions after Linux
reboot. Oracle's raw device came up with "root:disk" ownership after reboot.
Restart Linux
Run as root:-
# service rawdevices restart
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login,
/etc/profile and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/asm
During this run create diskgroup RAWDATA1 with normal redundancy
mirroring /dev/raw/raw1 and /dev/raw/raw2.
You should be fine with discovering raw devices if permissions are in place (oracle:dba)
Exit installer.
Export ORACLE_HOME for ASM instance and corresponding PATH.
Then run "dbca" to create diskgroup RAWDATA2 with
normal redundancy mirroring /dev/raw/raw3 and /dev/raw/raw4
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed RAWDATA1 diskgroup
in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1.
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.
Next:-
$ sqlplus /nolog

Remove / Reuse Oracle Home

An installation of Oracle 10gR2 failed in silent mode. So, I ran the deinstallation script and now want to rerun the installation but I'm getting the error: "Oracle Home with name already exists at location...Please specify another location for Oracle Home." The directory where we want to install the software is empty. What is it that we are missing in order to install the software in the directory? How do we remove the Oracle_home that was not successfully used in the failed installation?
The server is a solaris server. I know how to accomplish this on a Windows platform server.
Thanks.

There are no eroneous entries in the oratab file. At this point we are just looking to install the 10gr2 software. Here is the error that we are receiving:
SEVERE:OUI-10136:An Oracle Home with name OraDbHome2 already exists at location /u01/oracle/product/10.2.0. Please specify another location for Oracle Home.
All we are looking to do is remove any references to the directory where we want to install the software and re-run the installation.

Installing oracle 10gr2 and applying 10.2.0.3 patchset on sun sparc 64bit

dear all,
im planning to install oracle 10gr2 on sun solaris sparc(64bit).
kindly provide the steps specific to configuring kernal parameters.
details:
On Solaris 10
sparc 64-bit
uname -r
5.10
provide the steps to configure the kernal parameters with respect to my configuration.

hi rajesh,
thanks for your quick reply. but in sun solaris 10 do we need to change the entries in /etc/system.
as per
Oracle® Database
Installation Guide
10g Release 2 (10.2) for Solaris Operating System (SPARC
64-Bit)
B15690-02
November 2005
Note: In Solaris 10, you are not required to make changes to the
/etc/system file to implement the System V TPC. Solaris 10 uses
the resource control facility for its implementation.
do we need to chanage the values as specified or how to proceed.?
im confused in these with respect solaris 10.

Hi Nirav,
Many thanks for your response. I verified the same, but the same query was executed successfully after removing the INSERT INTO part(executed the SELECT part only). What might be the cause for this error?
For your kind information :
I have 2 schema in my DB( ceas_mk_app and ceas_mk_rpt ).
All the source tables are present in ceas_mk_app schema - These tables are used by ceas_mk_rpt schema(using synonym) to generate the report.
I'm executing the above said query from ceas_mk_rpt to insert the necessary data in to report temp. table.
Thanks,
Sengol S

How can i remove manually oracle 10g express edition from vista

hello
i use windows vista
how can i remove manually oracle 10 g express edition
please help

1. Uninstall all Oracle components using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).
2. Delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE key which contains registry entries for all Oracle products by using regedit.
3. Delete any references to Oracle services/components in the following registry location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/. Looks for key entries that starts with “Ora” which are obviously related to Oracle.
4. Reboot the workstation.
5. Delete the ORACLE_BASE directory. (i.e C:\Oracle)
6. Delete the C:\Program Files\Oracle directory.
7. Empty the temp directory.
8. Empty the recycle bin.
have you done this?

Oracle 10gr2 rac, ora-12545 error when configured in shared server mode

Hi i have fresh installation on two node rac on linux, with oracle 10gr2. It is running successfully, when i configure it in shared server mode and try to connect from client it gives error ora_12545:
I have referred the oracle metalink notes and configured the local_listener as well as the remote_listener,
still it is giving the error. I am able to tnsping all the entries on tnsnames.ora,
i m also able to ping the hostnames,
It connects most of the times succeessfully but some times it gives the error.
how to solve this problem,
please help me

Basically this error means you misspelled the hostname or typed a wrong IP Address.
Oracle Error :: TNS-12545+
Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
Cause
The address specified is not valid, or the program being connected to does not exist.
Action
Ensure the ADDRESS parameters have been entered correctly; the most likely incorrect parameter is the node name. Ensure that the executable for the server exists (perhaps "oracle" is missing.) If the protocol is TCP/IP, edit the TNSNAMES.ORA file to change the host name to a numeric IP address and try again.
I suggest you to check the dispatcher instance parameter.

Oracle Forms 6i client/server against an Oracle 10gR2 database

Hello
We have the following situation:
Oracle Forms6i/Reports6i client server application against an Oracle 8i cost-based database. we want to migrate this application
step 1:
Migrate the database to 10gr2, but do not touch the client application
Go live
step 2:
Migrate the development environment to 6i webforms.
Production environment stays client server.
With this construction we can still create new patches/functionality.
step 3:
Migrate to Forms10gR2 (and reports)
I know Forms 6i is not supported anymore.
My question is on step 1.
When I read NOTE: 338513.1 entitled "Is Forms/Reports 6i Certified To Work Against Oracle Server 10g Rel 1, Rel 2 or 11g?" carefully
it says that Forms 6i is not certified against 10gR2.
On OTN I read several posts that this works ok (assuming you do not use the wrong character set).
I also read on OTN that patch 18 (which is only supported for EBS customers) is certified against 10gR2.
The questions:
- Is Oracle Forms patch 18 certified against an Oracle 10gR2 database? (or only for EBS)
- Is there anybody out there that can confirm that Oracle Forms 6i C/S works against Oracle 10gR2
Regards Erik

Thank you.
Now I found it.
But how do I read that page.
It says:
Client Certifications
OS      Product      Server Status
XP      6.0.8.27.0 Patch 18      N/A      Desupported
Application Tier Certifications
OS      Product      Server      Status
XP      6.0.8.27.0 Patch 18      9.2      Desupported
XP      6.0.8.27.0 Patch 18      10g      Desupported
I read this as follows:
Patch 18 was certified agains a 10g database in a webforms environment.
No client server mentioned and Server 10g , so no 10gR2!
I'm I right?
Regards Erik

Oracle 10gR2 on Solaris 10-Disk space question

I am going to install Oracle 10gR2 on Solaris 10 (x86). I need some advice on Disk space allocations. Altogether i've 10GB allocated for both Solaris and Oracle in VMware. My current allocation is this:
/ ----------->6177mb
swap---------->1024mb
/tmp ----------> 400mb
/export/home------->2570mb
Is this enough to install a Basic Oracle Database? I am going to use it only for learning purposes.

It is Ok to start, but I suggest you to read the:
Oracle® Database Installation Guide
10g Release 2 (10.2) for Solaris Operating System (x86)
Part Number B15697-01
for further requirements and a complete step by step guide.

Steps to remove a database

Hi, I need to create a bat file to remove the database in Oracle 9i. The following are the steps:
1) remove database Windows services
2) remove password file
3) remove database directory structure
Does anyone have a script to perform that?
Thanks a lot

I posted a new set of graphical tools to manage, monitor and tune the Oracle database. One of the many functions and utilities is a function that generates scripts (Windows, Unix) to delete a database. It is free and can be downloaded from http://www.odbtools.com. I will greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Here is a sample script generated for Wndows:
