How i can make sure all will be up fine after re-location, Not dropping then them is good. Moving them very gently is even better. Remembering/Marking how to plug them in is good also.
what if something goes wrong?Consider it a challenge
what backups i should have and how to take them & restore/recover them?You should have this in place anyway. And a DR plan.
Any other suggestion to make preparation would help .....You should probably hire specialist help. Any consider whether you should really be buying new servers and migrating onto those, especially if your maintenance has lapsed.
These answers seem tite, but to give meaningful responses requires a lot more detail and your cost/risk/benefit situation. A NFS or iSCSI NAS solution might be part of your strategy if you have nothing else, but it all really requires planning, and there is probably no way to impart the skills to yourself. But you possibly need a specialist help.

How to Install Solaris 10 on Sun Server

Thnaks in advance to all.

You can go to doc.sun.com for all Solaris documentation. This should be the link you need, which is for the latest version of Solaris 10 (10/09).
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/coll/1236.11?l=en
If you need an older version, you can find them all here:

Hi:
After some days and several test I discover the solution.
I'm using Unicodes in the messages text (like \u00e9, \u00e1) and due to a typing mistake, in just a word the sequence \u00es appears instead of \u00e9.
It seems \u00es is not a valid Unicode code and that was the cause of this particular error.
I think this kind of message error must change depending which web server is used.
As i said, i'm using the embedded oc4j server.
Bye.

All,
Bulk update and post up gradation tasks was completed at time of migration.
I did notice that when opening Project Professional 2013 and unselecting
Load Resource Assignments, everything opens and runs as it should. Not sure why ? So I think for now, I'll run Project Professional 2013 without Load Resource Assignments until I find a fix.
As for (The following projects are missing the workspace webs) error, still getting them.
Thanks all for the Quick Reply's.

Oracle RAC on Sun server.

Hello Oracle RAC gurus,
I have below questions, I would highly appreciate if anyone can answer these.
1) Is it must to have identical server model and configuartion for Oracle RAC?
2) I have Sun Fire 280R machine with Sun solaris 10. Can I install Oracle RAC on this
using Oracle VMWare?
3) Please let me know below scenario is possible or not,
If I have Oracle Databases(single instances) are running on my Sun server box, can I
use this machine as primary node for Oracle RAC? If this is not possible then
can I use as secondary node?
Thanks gurus.

For 1: NO, the hardware does not need to be exactly the same. The nodes can be different models, with different CPU speed and different RAM sizes. The only consideration is that they must be the same O/S. This is a hardware vendor issue. They determine which configurations they are willing to support.
For 2: RAC is currently not supported in Oracle VM.
For 3: YES, at first glance you can do this. Note that the RAC database requires a cluster database home. Thus, you would need to install a cluster database home in addition to the Single Instance database home(s). However, this answer does not consider whether or not your node would be capable of hosting another database instance in regards to performance.
Thanks.

Error Code (Windows 2012 server DataCenter Edition) :0xC004F069

When I am trying to activate windows 2012 server datacenter edition, an error message is showing. "the software licensing reported that the product SKU is not found". what is SKU?
how to solve this problem?

SKU = Stock Keeping Unit (an industry term, meaning the reference number for a unique specific part number or product identity)
-=-=-
from: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc303695.aspx
Error Code: 0xC004F066
Error Message: The Software Licensing Service reported that the product SKU is not found.
Activation Type: MAK/KMS client
Possible Cause: Volume media has been used with a non-Volume key.
Troubleshooting Steps:
- Match the product key to the OS edition.
- Contact the Product Activation Call Center for assistance.

This suggests that you are using an invalid combination of product key/installation media.
Check that you are using a "matched set", either Retail media with Retail key, or, Volume media with Volume key.

Calling an Unix command on Remote sun Server in a Java Code

Hello All
I have an Java Application which is run on windows server (I)
I have another Sun Server (II)
I want to call an unix command on server(II) from java application which is on server(I)
I am using Samba Server in order to share files between Windows Server and Unix Server
Can I use samba in order to call command
or is there any way to open an telnet session within java application
I will be grateful if you give me some suggestion on this issue
Regards
BEKIR BALCIK
Argela Technologies ...

Can I use samba in order to call commandYes, smaba supports "magic" files that cause a program to be executed when they are accessed. Note, this does not provide for arguments but you can put these in a file which you command reads.
or is there any way to open an telnet session within java applicationYes. just use a Socket connection.

Datacenter Migration

Hi All,
We are planning for a Datacenter Migration and i had few questions regarding it.
Source is on HP-UNIX 11.23, Oracle 10.2, SAP -ECC6 EHP4
Our target version would be 11.31, Oracle 11g, SAP-ECC6 EHP4
im thinking of installing oracle 11g and shell of ECC6 EHP4 on target system and then perform export from source system
and use the export dump to import in the target system.
I would like to know if the above strategy is ok as the difference between source and target would be OS release and Oracle version.
Any inputs would be of great help.
Regards,
Ershad Ahmed.

Hi,
The procedure is correct.
If you are comfortable with Migration Monitor. Additional to your steps you can do the below things too.
Source:
1) Start your export from sapinst after R3ldctl finishes, it will exist for migration monitor.
Target:
1) Install the Oracle Software
2) Databse creation
3) Tablespace Creation
and then it will exit. and wait till you configure migration monitor and start the import. Once all data is imported and you continue with your sapinst screen.
(Benefits : Tablespace creation for large database take much time and you are saving this time)
If you are comfortable iwth migration monitor then only proceed with the above steps.
Regards
Iliyas.

Oracle VM 3 with SUN SERVER X3

Dear All Experts,
Is it possible to run Oracle VM 3 with SUN SERVER X3 has only 2 hard disks using local storage?
If can, how to do it? please kindly share this experience?
Thanks and regards,
Vandy

Booting to a USB-thumb-drive won't be a redundant OS mirror but that sounds like a good idea & that would be one way to do it. Solid State USB drives are likely more reliable than HDD but they do also fail (or maybe wear out & become read-only). Worst case you hopefully could just reinstall the OS on a new USB and your data would still be recoverable.
Speaking of adding disks, if the BIOS/MB supports it you may also be able to add a USB-3.0 HDD. USB-2.0 may also be an option but would be slower. For my Dev environment I added multiple USB-3.0 7200rpm 4TB drives and they give me some piece of mind and provide decent performance for backups for my Dev environment (I clone to them to give extra layer of back up).
I don't know if you can mirror 2 USB drives nor have I tried removing them and rotating them but both might be options (haven't though much about nor tried to do either yet).

Cannot find any information on this Sun Server I just got

Hi, Just got this Sun Server and I cant find in the Sun knowledgebase or support section.
The box is approx 50cm x 50 cm and 6cm high.
On the back it has 2 Network ports, Lom Serial A & B ports and a pci card with 4 Lan ports.
Font face plate states Webshield eppliance.
Label on back states: Compliance model number: FJ1A and Part Number 263-0819-01.
I have tried hookin up to the serial port with a RJ45 to db9 cable but nothing happens. Perhaps I have the wrong terminal settings entered.
Maybe this unit is known by another name. I would really like to find all the relevant user guides and how-to documents though.
Any help appreciated.
Henyak

A brief Google search suggests that Network Associates may have acquired a bunch of systems and remanufactured and re-labelled them as their own product. That means it no longer would be a Sun system, but is a Network Associates' product.
If indeed it is a 1U formfactor as you described, then the closest comparable Sun system might be the Netra T1 105 (360MHz or possibly 440MHz cpu).
Go to Docs.Sun.Com and get the T1 105's documentation and see if you can make it work.
I hope you didn't pay very much - in fact almost nothing.
It's old and slow.
Solaris 8 would be about the newest OS that wouldn't burden it with overhead.

MS Server Datacenter 2008/ Bare metal ESX Licencing woes

I have a old HP DL380-G6 i installed VMware ESXi 5.5 on. I had an old MS Server Datacenter 2008 key I got free from school in 2009 as part of the academic alliance program. How do I use it on my bare metal ESX solution? I tried to phone MS to ask but they
wouldn't even talk to me without an "authorization number" i obviously don't have.

Hi,
Because there have various discounts and licensing options available to students, teachers, and academic organizations, please refer the following KB to identify your licensing
type then deter how to do the next plan:
