Suprisingly two Processes running for one database

Hi all,
Today morning in one of our database servers, we see two processes running for one database.

COBLpo05 7789 1187 0 Mar 25 ? 5:35 ora_smon_BLINDEA1
Can anybody suggest me what is the reason behind it and what to do in this case?
Thanks in Advance.

The ORACLE_HOME may have been set twice with differents values in it (i.e. extra slash) before starting twice the same db.
Please, have a look to this article from Ivan Kartik :

Why are there two ns-httpd processes running for one instance of iws 6

Hi all,
I'm used to iWS 4.x where there's only one watchdog and one ns-httpd process running for any given install of iWS. Now in iWS 6.x I noticed there are two processes for the admin server and two processes for the actual single web server instance, along with two watchdogs.
What are the extra web server instances doing? I noticed that there is a 'parent' relationship with the pid's, so I guess one is spawning the other, but why? If it's to have persistent state over restart, isn't that what uxwdog is for?
Thanks in advance,
James Huang

Please see this 'sysresv' output. It returns multiple shared memory IDs for one database (althouth all are 0s except one). Why is this? Does it matter? It seems not eating up memory. Stop and start database didn't help.

Two processes running at the same time in Lookout

I have installed Lookout 5.0 with 200 I/O Points onto our server computer. The application of motion control is next to the 200 I/O points through OPC PMAC server/client. Now I would like to have a second process in the same server for trouble shooting and testing without stopping the motion control process. However, this second testing process could have also many I/O points through Serial and USB ports. I assume that the total amount of I/O points of both processes will be greater than 200.I prefer to have independent processes for control and testing because access levels. Can I have these two processes running at the same time when needed?

Hi,
From your description you are using a third party OPC server for the motion application. You could have a second Lookout process communicating with the same OPC server with no problems, as long as you do not exceed the number of I/O points your license supports.
Also, the process you are using for testing obviously could not overwrite datamembers (or registers if you will) that would interfere in the overall application, in other words you can test your application as long as you keep the coherency of the test.
So the answer would be, yes it is possible, however you are still limited to the number of I/O's your license supports... You may even consider upgrade the number of I/O's you have in your license.

Bank Transfer file: generate two outgoing files for one pmt method?

Hello Experts,
Two files (header and item) are expected from the hungarian bank for each payement.
It's possible to generate two outgoing files for one pmt method using DMEE tree? If yes, can you tell me how?
If not, there is an other solution? Use a classic program (copy and adaptation) for example?
Thank you in advance.
Amal

Are you sure you need separate files file header and items.
Usually both header and items are placed in the same file. Please reconfirm or get the formats from the Bank.

Import Two Price Lists for one item

Hi all,
How we can import two price lits for one item and how to link it.
For eg.
Suppose Item A is having price 100 Rs today at 11 am
and its price changes to 150 RS at 1 Pm.
how we can do this.
We also want to see the last price of that item.
Reply
Thanks,
Neetu

Neetu,
What do you mean by changing? Does the Item price flactuate throughout the day every day..if so you need to create a routine to import/update the pricelist constantly.
If the 11 am and 1 pm are constant times when the prices change then you can maintain a pricelist for each one of them.
Shooting for a solution without knowing the business background can be a bit wasteful. If you might want to throw some light on the type of business and what the prices are for..
I also see you have posted the same question earlier..Price Updation
I would suggest that you post only one thread for one question.

Two item renderer for one datagrid column?

any possibilities
karthik.k

Hi,
I think your requirement can be completed by using ViewStack you can pass selected index to it according to requirement.
See:
<itemRenederer ...
     <viewstack selectedIndex = 0 ...>
          <vBox id="vBox1" >
                    Your 1st itemrenderer will come here....
          </vBox>
          <vBox id="vBox2" >
                    Your 2nd itemrenderer will come here....
          </vBox>
     </viewStack>
</itemRenederer>
You have to just toggle selectedIndex.
Thanks

Two Mobile Server for one Backend ?

Hi,
we need two Mobile Server. One for internal access and one for external access.
Is it possible to have two Mobil Servers for one backend system and can I sync all the config between this two servers ?
Regards,
Gerald

Hi
Yes, you can mirror on the hardware,DB and OS level.
This is not possible with your mobile server.
<i><b>One for internal access and one for external access</b></i>
For external access you can expose one of the IP's as a static IP and for internal Access you dont need to expose it.
If you are planning to have two Servers then you will have to get as many licenses from SAP.
PS: reward points for helpful answers

Hi
I do not think that you will get a reply now as it has been too long.
Maybe the answer is not known.
However as the forum is growing and it takes so much time to get through all of the pages it would be nice to keep it current so could you please close your thread and either re-open a new one (this might help as people are more likely to look at curret ones) or try another forum.
This will make life easier for everyone

Two deliveries required for one sales order

Hello Friends,
I have a quirey , I have two types of goods in one sales order, one is dangerous goods and other one is normal. How ever we are thinking to make two seperate deliveries even they are in one sales order. How can two diff deliveries gets created.
We are planning to create new shipping point with new loading group for the dangerous goods .
Will the above decision works or is there any simplest way to create two auto deliverys for one sales order.
Reg.

Hi all,
I have yet another proposal - using copy control and adding there dangerous goods profile LIPS-PROFL as split criterial. This field is populated originally from material master MARA-PROFL field. You can check for example routine FV50C201. Split criteria are defined in likp-zukrl field.
I think that is better solution then introducing new shipping point. Because there are some determinations and dependencies related to shipping points. So the more shipping points you have, the more additional config you have. If it is needed by business to have separate shipping points - then fine. But if the goods are shipped from the same place, then I would rather modify copy control instead of multiplying config and master data. I say duplicated effort in master data - because with 2 shippiong points you would need to maintain DG profile field and additionally loading group.
Kind regards
Witek Prawecki.

Is this possible to already reserve 2 TB of space on a data drive for one database

Is this possible to already reserve 2 TB of space on a data drive for one database.
Please suggest how to do this.
Best regards,
Vishal

You can either change the current filesize of current files in your database or add new file(s) whose current size is 2TB by using the ALTER DATABASE command. If you don't have instant file initialization, adding 2TB to data files can take a long time.
If you are adding 2TB to log files that can take a long time whether you have instant file initialization or not. For info on instant file initialization see
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175935%28v=sql.105%29.aspx
and

Case confusion - two dbcontrol config directories for one database

Oracle 11.2.0.2 SE-One 64-bit
Oracle ASM 11.2.0.2 64-bit
Oracle Linux 5.6 x86-64
Stand alone server, no cluster, no RAC
Configured a new dbcontrol for subject database. Everything seems to be functioning correctly but it created two config directories
oracle:mydb$ cd $ORACLE_HOME
2013-09-12 14:21:50
oracle:mydb$ ls -l myserver*
myserver.mycompany.org_mydb:                        -------- note the dbname is lower case and directory is sparse
total 4
drwxr----- 3 oracle oinstall 4096 Sep 12 14:13 sysman
myserver.mycompany.org_MYDB:                        -------- note the dbname is upper case and directory is fully populated
total 12
-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall    6 Sep 12 14:13 emctl.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall   56 Sep 12 14:13 oraInst.loc
drwxr----- 7 oracle oinstall 4096 Sep 12 14:13 sysman
And in the j2ee directory we get this. Note the dbname is in upper case
oracle:mydb$ cd oc4j/j2ee
2013-09-12 14:26:49
oracle:mydb$ ll
total 36

drwxr-xr-x 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Apr 5 08:53 utilities
What the database tells us about itself:
SQL> select name from v$database;
NAME
MYDB
SQL> select instance_name from v$instance;
INSTANCE_NAME
mydb
SQL> select name,
2         value
3 from v$parameter
4 where name in ('db_name',
5                 'db_unique_name',
6                 'instance_name',
7                 'service_names',
8                 'global_names'
9                 )
10 order by name;
NAME                 VALUE
db_name              MYDB
db_unique_name       MYDB
global_names         FALSE
instance_name        mydb
service_names        MYDB
And the environment from which I ran emca:
oracle:mydb$ env |grep ORA|sort
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2/dbhome_1
ORACLE_SID=mydb
The mis-matched cases stem from my predecessor deciding he didn't like database names in lower case, so started changing in mid-stream. I'm not sure exactly what he did or how he did it. But that aside, the results of creating a new dbcontrol (getting two directories for the same database) still puzzling. I started by dropping the original (emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop), which dropped the upper-case version of the directories, but left the lower-case version. I then deleted that manually before running emca to configure a new dbcontrol, but still ended up with both versions.
Ideas?

The ORACLE_HOME may have been set twice with differents values in it (i.e. extra slash) before starting twice the same db.
