I'm sorry, but Pages won't correctly open the Avery templates with the .doc extension. They open, but all the formatting is lost. Just a blank page.
I tried to chane extension to .template, as suggested by the Pages -Help window. That didn't work either.

Hi,
I also worked on the Banking Domain for nearly one and half year.
I suggest follow these thinsgs :-
1 - First you need to know how the front end Domain is working.
2 - Learn and See when some specific transaction had done at Front end side
of Application how the records are effected in the back end side..
Check The relavant Code in the Back end . Business Logic.
3 - Follow this process.. by the time you can able learn how the domain
is working and its relavant tabels, procedures and packages etc.,
4 - there will some remaing things like reports...which are depending on the
tables.
that's it..
Thanks

Samples template for oracle 10g reports

Hi,
I need a oracle 10g reports sample templates were we need to make modifications and use it.
if any body has the sample templates can share with me or where can i get the sample templates.
Please advice.

In your $ORACLE_DEV_HOME/reports/templates, there are many template examples (they are actually all the same, just different colors). I would start with one of those templates and work forward. Make sure to read about templates in the online help, as applying them can override any changes you made to a report. Also read about how inheritence works in templates.

Missing Templates for Standalone Oracle Database

According to this link: [Templates Overview|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/vm/overview/templates-101937.html]
and this link: [Database Template|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/vm/database-092479.html] ...
There should be a template for a standalone (non-RAC) database.
But when you go to eDelivery there is no such template.
Why does Oracle not provide a template for the standalone database ???

You can use the templates for Oracle Enterprise Linux.
According to Readme:
"The oracle-rdbms-server-11gR2-preinstall package is installed in the templates
before the Oracle Linux 6 Update 4 templates. This package installs software
packages and sets system parameters that are required for Oracle single instance
and Real Application Cluster install for Oracle Linux Release 6.
This package creates the 'oracle' user, with an initial login group of 'oinstall',
a supplementary group of 'dba', and a home directory of /home/oracle. The
Oracle-validated package disables logins by the user 'oracle', and the password is
locked for the 'oracle' user by default. To enable the 'oracle' user account, log in
as the 'root' user to the guest virtual machine after it is booted."
If you choose to use OEL 6 Update 4 you can install the package using the package manager.

Oracle VM Templates for OEBS Release 12.1.3 Vision Media - missing files

I downloaded all 11 parts ( 8 - DB and 3 - APPS) for this media pack template - Oracle VM Templates for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3 Vision Media.
Per the media pack README I unzipped each file and and then concatenated (and gunzipped) them into directories for DB and APPS respectively. According to the media pack README there should be README.txt and System.img files in each directory in addition to the template .img file and vm.cfg files. Neither directory contains README.txt or System.img files, and only the APPS directory contains a vm.cfg file. Both directories do include a template .img file.
# ls -l OVM_OL5U6_X86_64_EBIZ12.1.3_DB_VIS_PVM
total 48004528
-rw-------. 1 root root 49156626432 Apr 16 17:17 ebs1211db.img

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 448 Feb 24 2011 vm.cfg
When I put each directory into a tar ball and attempt to import either template, they fail with an error message indicating the System.img does not exist...because it doesn't.
Are the README.txt and System.img files missing from the template,? Do i need to download the template again?
Any insight and assistance is appreciated.
Thank you,
Phil

I answered my question and/or discovered the issue. To get the Oracle VM Template (8 parts) in question to the server where there was space to extract them, I had to copy them between servers. The first time I copied them I did it via an NFS mount and apparently some corruption resulted causing the template to not import successfully. I deleted the template parts from the destination server and Hi Phil, Can you please explain how you managed to import the files once after copying to the destination? ie, until now I was using FTP to download the templates(which are in .tgz format)
copied them a second time via scp. This time the files were intact and the template imported successfully to the OVM Manager. Issue resolved.I am kind of a beginner with Oracle VM environment and completely lost with making it easier to import the templates. I mean, following the readme.txt I unzipped the files, which created the four files for application and database tiers and then I used to tar repack them (following a suggestion received from another thread) and then imported them through a FTP session
The entire activity took almost two and half days, when an alternative method as what you mentioned looks quite feasible to implement, especially while dealing with large templates like the ones for E-Business suite. Hence please answer the following:
What do you mean by secure copying to target file. Does it mean you copied the template elements to a particular folder with VM Server?
Once after copying the files using secure copy, how did you import them?
What is your VM environment? A lot of things have changed with VM Server 3.1.1, the OVS/seed_pool structure is not any further available and the template import has been restricted to http, https or FTP sessions.
Please supply the details, if possible

GUIDE: Oracle VM VirtualBox and Oracle Linux NIC bonding

Author: Dude
Date: 01-Jun-2013
Version: B
Last updates:
23-Jul-2013, changes required due to forum upgrade
The following is provided in the hope that it might be useful. If you wish to use it for the purpose of reference, presentation or education, please include the link or information to this forum posting. Thank you!
What is Linux network interface bonding? Simply put, the Linux system provides a kernel driver, which can create a logical network device (bond) using 2 or more Network Interface Controllers (NIC) to accomplish link-aggregation and adapter fault-tolerance. For more information, please see the Deployment Guide at https://linux.oracle.com/documentation/
The channel bonding interface supports several modes of operation. In a typical active-backup set up for fault-tolerance, the system performs MII-based health monitoring of the network interface slaves (eth0, eth1) and assigns them according to bond options and interface availability. In active-backup mode (mode 1), only the current active network device is seen externally.
Linux bonding for fault-tolerance under Oracle VM VirtualBox does not seem to function as advertised. Searching the Internet for more information shows that other people have tried to set up Linux bonding using various virtualization products, virtual host network adapter and bonding options, but without success.
It appears the management of Media Access Control addresses (MAC) interferes with internal routing methods between the host and the virtual machine guest. Using the modinfo bonding command (fig. 1) shows a listing of available parameters for the bonding kernel module. The fail_over_mac parameter addresses the Mac address issue in VirtualBox.
Fig.1
# modinfo bonding
filename:       /lib/modules/2.6.39-400.17.1.el6uek.x86_64
                /kernel/drivers/net/bonding/bonding.ko
parm:           fail_over_mac:For active-backup,
                do not set all slaves to the same MAC;
                0 for none (default), 1 for active, 2 for follow (charp)
Configuration Example
Virtualization Product: Oracle VM VirtualBox 4.2.10
VM Guest OS: Oracle Linux 6.4 (x64)
VM adapter settings: Bridged Adapter, Paravirtualized Network (virtio-net)
Adapter1 (eth0): 080027436617, en0, Ethernet 1
Adapter2 (eth1): 08002708F36A, en0, Ethernet 1
Note: If you wish to reset the network adapter names and MAC addresses used by the Oracle Linux guest system, erase the content of /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and restart the virtual machine.
1. Create or modify the following configuration files:
/etc/modprobe.d/bonding-eth0_eth1.conf
alias bond0 bonding
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0
DEVICE=bond0
IPADDR=10.0.2.12
NETMASK=255.0.0.0
GATEWAY=10.0.0.138
DNS1=10.0.0.138
DNS2=8.8.8.8
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
USERCTL=no
BONDING_OPTS="mode=1 miimon=100 fail_over_mac=1"
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
2. Restart the system or network services (root):
Fig. 2
# service network restart
Configuration Test
Enter the following commands as user root to verify proper operation of NIC bonding:
Fig. 3
# tail /var/log/messages
bond0: setting mode to active-backup (1).
bond0: Setting MII monitoring interval to 100.
bond0: Setting fail_over_mac to active (1).
bond0: Adding slave eth0.
bond0: making interface eth0 the new active one.
bond0: first active interface up!
bond0: enslaving eth0 as an active interface with an up link.
bond0: Adding slave eth1.
bond0: enslaving eth1 as a backup interface with an up link.

          UP BROADCAST RUNNING SLAVE MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
During the above test, the client network connection from host 10.0.0.1 (ssh) was maintained without any noticeable interruption. As it can be seen from the syslog and ifconfig command output, the bond0 interface was automatically assigned either the MAC address of eth0 or eth1 and the fail-over worked as advertised.
Good luck!

Fresh install of Oracle VM Manager Template into Oracle VM Server

Hi,
I am trying to install the Oracle VM Manager template and then
create an Oracle VM Manager client.
I have already done a 'fresh install' of Oracle VM Server.
I do not have another machine available to use to contain the
'Oracle VM Manager', therefore, I am attempting to install the
Oracle VM Manager template directly into an Oracle VM Manager Server and
run the client.
I am following the instructions of the Oracle VM Server Users Guide
in section 4.3.
When I extract the zip file contents into the
/OVS/seed_pool directory, I get the following files.
Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz
So far, so good.
Next, I used 'tar' to help me extract the directories of the .tgz file.
So far, so good.
Next, as instructed, I used 'python' and 'print randomMAC()' to create a new MAC address.
Inside the /OVS/seed_pool/OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM/vm.cfg file
I modified the vif MAC address. I replaced the
xx:xx:xx with the 'last three' that were generated by the python randomMAC
function from above.
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:<my generated numbers>', ]
So far, so good?
In the Oracle VM Server Users Guide in section 4.3.,
The next step, expains that I should run
xm create mv.cfg
I did this. When I ran this I received back the error.
Using config file "./vm.cfg"
Error disk is not accessible.
When I peek inside my vm.cfg file.
I see file references starting with the following
file:/OVS/running_pool/ ...
Of, course my running_pool directory is empty.
(Again, this is a fresh install of Oracle VM Server).
My first question is the following.
Sometime in this process was I supposed to run
the the following executable?
./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
If so, should I have done this early?
Was the modification of the vif (of adding the MAC address
into the vm.cfg file, something I 'should have not done'
or 'something that could be ignored' because the
'./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh' would have done this for me?
My second question is the following.
Would the following process be 'more correct?'
..1 Not modify the vm.cfg' file.
..2 run ./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh.
..3 In the /OVS/running_pool/ directory find my
vm.cfg file of interest, then modify the vif with a new MAC address.
..4 In /OVS/running_pool/Change my current location to my directory of interest
run xm create vm.cfg (to run my Oracle VM Manager)?
Any help or ideas whould be appreciated.
Thank you very much,
AIM

Hi,
This is the README file for Oracle VM Manager 2.2.0
Readme for Media Pack B57738-01
Print: Access key=P Close: Access key=C
Oracle VM Templates for Oracle VM Manager 2.2.0 Media Pack v1 for x86 (32 bit)
=====================================================================
Template Version 2.3
Oracle VM Manager Version 2.2.0
This document contains:
1. Prerequisites for Oracle VM Manager virtual machine (VM) deployment
2. Oracle VM Manager Template description
3. Creating an Oracle VM Manager Virtual Machine from
Oracle VM Manager Template
4. Deployment Interview
5. Known Issues
For more information on Oracle VM Manager, please refer to
the "Oracle VM Manager Installation Guide" and the "Oracle VM Manager
User's Guide" available at:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/index.htm
1. Prerequisites
================
- A new install of Oracle VM Server 2.2 that has NOT been managed by another
Oracle VM Manager. Manager Template 2.2 is intended to be installed on Oracle
VM 2.2 server. If you have a new Oracle VM 2.1.5 server and want to deploy
Oracle VM Manager template, please use the Oracle VM 2.1.5 Manager template.
Note: root access to the server's dom0 is required.
- It's highly recommended that you upgrade the default agent (ovs-agent-2.3-19)
to ovs-agent-2.3-27 or later. You can get the latest Oracle VM 2.2 packages
from Oracle's Unbreakable Linux Network (http://linux.oracle.com).
Note: Alternate location to get Oracle VM agent 2.3-27 is
http://oss.oracle.com/oraclevm/server/2.2/RPMS/ovs-agent-2.3-27.noarch.rpm
- A working directory of the Oracle VM Server 2.2 has at least 4GB free space
for downloading and installing the template. The working directory can be any
directory on the Oracle VM server except /OVS/running_pool.
Note: The /root partition of the default Oracle VM server install may not have
enough space to temporarily host the template installation. Please use other
directory that has sufficient free space.
- At least 15GB of free space in the cluster root storage repository. For storage
and repository configuration, please refer to Oracle VM 2.2 Server User Guide:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15444/storage.htm
and
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15444/repository.htm
- At least 2GB of free memory on the Oracle VM Server
- A static IP address for the Oracle VM Manager
- If enabling HA (high availability) for the Oracle VM Manager,
mount a clustered OCFS2 or NFS filesystem on /OVS. If ext3 or a
local OCFS2 filesystem is used, enabling HA will cause the high availability
prerequisite checking to fail. The Oracle VM Manager configuration
process will exit without completing the configuration.
- The Oracle VM Manager will register the first VM that it detects.
To have Oracle VM Manager be the first VM registered,
make sure there are no virtual machine images besides the Oracle VM Manager
virtual machine in the /OVS/running_pool directory on the Oracle VM Server.
- A desktop or other system with a VNC Viewer installed
The steps below assume that the Oracle VM Server used is not currently
or was not previously managed by another Oracle VM Manager. If this is not
the case, the instructions below will ask user clean up Oracle VM Agent DB
before running the Oracle VM Manager.
2. Oracle VM Manager Template Description
=========================================
The Oracle VM Manager Template is distributed as one archive file which
includes:
File Version
OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz 2.3
Deploy_Manager_Template.sh 2.3
The OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz archive contains two disk images,
a VM configuration file and a readme file:
- Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 x86 system disk image
- Oracle VM Manager 2.2 disk image
- vm.cfg
- README
The system image is a JeOS (Just enough OS) installation of Oracle
Enterprise Linux 5.3. It is a smaller footprint install that contains
the only packages needed by Oracle VM Manager.
Oracle VM Manager is configured to use Oracle Database 10g
Express Edition (included).
Deploy_Manager_Template.sh is used to check the prerequisite and
create virtual machine.
During the first boot of the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine,
the Oracle VM Manager configuration process will create server pool
and import the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine.
Two OS user accounts are created by default:
user: root password: ovsroot
user: oracle password: oracle
The user 'oracle' belongs to the 'oinstall' and 'dba' groups.
The default vnc console password is 'oracle'
3. Creating the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine
=================================================
1) Download the Oracle VM Manager Template (V19215-01.zip)
from http://edelivery.oracle.com/oraclevm
2) Login to the Oracle VM Server's dom0 as 'root'
Copy V19215-01.zip to your working directory with at least 4GB free space.
You can choose any directory on OVM Server except /OVS/running_pool.
This zip file contains the archive file OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz
and a deploy script Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
3) As root, run
# unzip V19215-01.zip
4) As 'root', run the deployment script:
# chmod 755 Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
# ./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
The deployment script Deploy_Manager_Template.sh will complete the following
tasks:
a) prerequisite checking
b) uncompress OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz file to directory
/OVS/running_pool. This directory will contain the files following files:
/OVS/running_pool/OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM
|- System.img (OS image file)
|- Manager.img (Manager image file)
|- vm.cfg (VM configuration file)
|- README (Readme file)
c) generate and assign new MAC address to the virtual machine
d) interview the user for VM and VM Manager configuration parameters
(next section 'Deployment interview' provides the list of questions)
e) create and boot the virtual machine from the Oracle VM Server
command line
f) display the access information for Oracle VM Manager and Oracle VM
Manager VM
4. Deployment Interview
=======================
The deployment script will prompt a user to enter
a) Agent password
The agent password is required for the prerequisites check.
b) Storage configuration
Storage Source: NFS address, OCFS2 partition path
The script will automatically detect your cluster root storage repository
if you have configured it. Or it prompts users to input their storage source
and the script tries to set it up as cluster root.
NOTE: how to manually create your own storage repository in OracleVM server 2.2.x
1) Register your storage source. Example:
/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py -n myhost:/mynfslocation
/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py -n /dev/sdb3
Note that the storage source should have at least 15GB free space.
If the storage source is successfully registered, note down the uuid genereated
by the command above, such as:
51d4c69b-e439-41ac-8b31-3cc485c993b0 => /dev/sdb3
2) Mount your storage repository.
If the agent version is 2.3-27 or higher, execute:
/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py -i
otherwise, complete the following commands:
[1] mkdir -p /var/ovs/mount/$(echo <uuid> | sed s/-//g | tr '[:lower:]' \
'[:upper:]')"
where '<uuid>' is the uuid noted down in step 2)
[2] mount your storage source to the directory made in step [1].
3) If /OVS exists, delete or move /OVS
mv /OVS "/OVS.$(date '+%Y%m%d-%H%M%S').orig"
create a symbolic link from storage repository to /OVS
ln -nsf /var/ovs/mount/<UUID>/ /OVS
c) Network configuration
Static IP address
Netmask
Default Gateway IP address
DNS Server IP address
Hostname
d) Password for database accounts:
'SYS' and 'SYSTEM' (the same password the same password is used)
'OVS'
'oc4jadmin'
'admin'
e) Web Service configuration (supported in template in version 1.2)
Web Service password (at least 6 characters)
Enable HTTPS or not
f) SMTP server (outgoing mail server SMTP hostname)
E-mail Address for account 'admin'
g) Data for the manager services configuration:
Oracle VM Server Pool Name
Oracle VM Server login user name
Oracle VM Server login password
Note that Oracle VM Manager is critical for managing Oracle VM Server Pools.
Do not pause, suspend or shutdown this virtual machine! Configuring
HA is recommended for this virtual machine so that Oracle VM will
automatically restart the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine if there
is a server crash.
5. Known Issues
===============
1) You may see messages on a virtual machine's console similar to these
when the virtual machine is booting up:
Fatal: No PCI config space access function found
rtc: IRQ 8 is not free.
i8042.c: No controller found.
These messages can be ignored.
2) Mail server check fails.
Bug #7140 in bugzilla.oracle.com
Oracle VM Manager installer only checks the default SMTP port 25 for the
mail server. If the SMTP port is not 25, the check fails, and you will
see the following message:
Mail server '<mail server hostname>' check failed, want to re-enter it(Y|n)?
You can enter 'n' to skip the mail server checking. You will also see the
send mail checking fails with following message:
Failed to send mail to '<Admin e-mail address>'
want to re-enter the e-mail address(Y|n)?
You can enter 'n' to skip the send mail checking.
3) OEL VM console may display error messages similar to those below:
BUG: warning at drivers/xen/fbfront/xenfb.c:143/xenfb_update_screen() (Not
tainted)
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff803aa461>] xenfb_thread+0x135/0x2c5

[<ffffffff802338ca>] kthread+0x0/0x132
[<ffffffff80260b1a>] child_rip+0x0/0x12
This will not cause any problems.
4) If you accidentally power off Oracle VM Manager virtual machine through
Oracle Manager UI, and restart the virtual machine from OVM server command
line, although Oracle VM Manager virtual machine is running normally,
the virtual machine status in Manager UI will stay in 'Shutting Down'.
This is expected, as the virtual machine status sync will only happen when
the virtual machine status is "Error" or "Powered Off".
To re-sync the virtual machine status, please complete the following steps:
1. Log on the Manager UI;
2. Navigate to the 'Virtual Machines' tab;
3. Select Oracle VM Manager virtual machine, "OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM";
4. Choose 'Reset' from 'More Actions' dropdown list;
5. Click 'Go' button, the status will become "Running" after a while.
5) (Bug 9191053) For OVS agent version 2.3-19, the following High
Availability scenario will not work.
"If a Virtual Machine Server fails, all running virtual machines are
restarted automatically on another available Virtual Machine Server."
For OVS agent 2.3-19, Oracle VM Manager virtual machine will not be
automatically restarted on any other available Virtual Machine Server,
but on the original Virtual Machine Server when it becomes available again.
To fix the issue, please upgrade OVS agent to 2.3-27 or the latest version.

Oracle Sesame Adaptater - missing template for creation of a new SAIL repo.

Hi,
I'm trying to deploy the Sesame Adaptater on my TOMCAT server.
At the point 8.9 of the doc ( http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18283_01/appdev.112/e11828/sem_sesame.htm#BABFFEFA) I'm suppose to type in the sesame console the following comand :
"create oracle."
I got this error :
ERROR : No template called Oracle found in C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\Aduna\OpenRDF Sesame Console\templates
By reading the Sesame doc and according to this page (http://www.openrdf.org/doc/sesame2/users/ch07.html) I suppose that I have to add in the "C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\Aduna\OpenRDF Sesame Console\templates" directory a file based on this template :
# Sesame configuration template for a main-memory repository
@prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>.
@prefix rep: <http://www.openrdf.org/config/repository#>.
@prefix sr: <http://www.openrdf.org/config/repository/sail#>.
@prefix sail: <http://www.openrdf.org/config/sail#>.
@prefix ms: <http://www.openrdf.org/config/sail/memory#>.
[] a rep:Repository ;
rep:repositoryID "{%Repository ID|memory%}" ;
rdfs:label "{%Repository title|Memory store%}" ;
rep:repositoryImpl [
rep:repositoryType "openrdf:SailRepository" ;
sr:sailImpl [
sail:sailType "openrdf:MemoryStore" ;
ms:persist {%Persist|true|false%} ;
ms:syncDelay {%Sync delay|0%}
Do anyone have the correct template ?
I didn't find any other thread about this problem, so I supose it's an easy issue to solve, but the Semantic Technologies are totally new for me.
Arthur

I finally find the answer to my question. The template used in the tutorial is present in the sesame adapter.
I just had to extract the files into the "sdordfsesame.jar", the template is locate in "sdordfsesame.jar/org/openrdf/console/oracle.ttl".
After adding the "oracle.ttl" to the correct directory, it's work fine.

Oracle SQL template to create re-usable DDL/DML Scripts for Oracle database

Hi,
I have a requirement to put together a Oracle SQL template to create re-usable DDL/DML Scripts for Oracle databases.
Only the Oracle DBA will be running the scripts so permissions is not an issue.
The workflow for any DDL is as follows:-
1) New Table
a. Check if the table exists from the system/admin views.
b. If table exists then give message "Table Exists"
c. If table does not exist then execute DDL code
2) Add Column
a. Check if Column exists for a given table from system/admin views
b. If column exists in the specified table,
b1. backup table.
b2. alter table to make changes to the column
b3. verify data or execute dml script convert from backup to the new change.
c. If Column does not exist
c1. backup table
c2. alter table to add column
c3. execute dml to populate column with default value.
The DML scripts are for populating base tables with data required for business operations.
3) Add new row
a. check if row exists by comparing old values of each column with new values to be added for the new record.
b. If exists, give message row exists
c. If not exists, add new record.
4) Update existing record (We have createtime columns in these tables so changes can be tracked)
a. check if row exists using primary key.
b. If exists,
b1. deactivate the record using the "active" column of the table
b2. Add new record with the changes required.
c. If does not exist, add new record with the changes required.
Could you please help with some ideas which can get this done accurately?
I have tried several ways, but I am not able to put together something that fulfills all requirements.
Thank you,

First let me address your question. (This is the easy part.)
1. The existence of tables can be found in DBA_TABLES. Query it and and then use conditional logic and execute immediate to process the DDL.
2. The existence of table columns is found in DBA_TAB_COLUMNS. Query it and then conditionally execute your DDL. You can copy the "before picture" of the table using that same dba view, or even better, use DBMS_METADATA.
As for your DML scripts, they should be restartable, reversible, and re-run-able. They should "fail gracefully" on error, be written in such a way that they can run twice in a row without creating duplicate changes.
3. Adding appropriate constraints can prevent invalid duplicate rows. Also, you can usually add to the where clause so that the DML does only what it needs to do without even relying on the constraint (but the constraint is there as a safeguard). Look up the MERGE statement to learn how to do an UPSERT (update/insert), which will let you conditionally "deactivate" (update) or insert a record. Anything that you cannot do in SQL can be done with simple procedural code.
Now, to the heart of the matter...
You think I did not understand your requirements?
Please be respectful of people's comments. Many of us are professionals with decades of experience working with databases and Oracle technology. We volunteer our valuable time and knowledge here for free. It is extremely common for someone to post what they feel is an easy SQL or PL/SQL question without stating the real goal--the business objective. Experienced people will spot that the "wrong question" has been asked, and then cut to the chase.
We have some good questions for you. Not questions we need answers from, but questions you need to ask yourself and your team. You need to reexamine this post and deduce what those questions are. But I'll give you some hints: Why do you need to do what you are asking? And will this construct you are asking for even solve the root cause of your problems?
Then ponder the following quotations about asking the right question:

One hears only those questions for which one is able to find answers.
— Friedrich Nietzsche
Be patient towards all that is unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves.
