Trun off archiving without bouncing the database

Hello,
Is there a way to turn off archive log mode without bouncing the database in 9i? I know we can turn off automatic archival with out bringing down the db.
Thanks.

Hi,
One thing is ARCHIVELOG and NOARCHIVELOG, another thing is automatic or manual archiving. When the Database is configured in ARCHIVELOG mode, you can dinamically turn on or off automatic archiving, but you cannot switch from ARCHIVELOG to NOARCHIVELOG (or viceversa) without shutting down the DB : this change has to be done when the DB is mounted but not open.

How do I restart apex without restarting the database?

As the title says... How do I restart apex without restarting the database?
For the second time in as many weeks apex 3.0.1(?) has stopped working while the database (10gR2) hasn't missed a beat.
How do I restart apex?
How do I get it to restart automatically on failure.
How do I receive failure notification messages.
How do I diagnose the cause of the failure.
We were looking at using apex in a production environment but the prospect of unplanned restarts of production databases every week is a little daunting.

David

David,
>> We're not using oracle http server as it's a 64 bit version so yes the whole thing is running within the database.
1) So your Web server is the XDB HTTP protocol server and embedded PL/SQL gateway (basically, the database's embedded Web server)? Is this 11g? If so, what platform?
2) Are there any reported issues in the database alert log?
3) When you check the status of the database listener, does it show services running for this specific port (default 8080, I guess)?
4) If you normally go to http://server:port/apex, when this situation occurs, what happens when you try and go to http://server:port?

Is there any way to turn off airport without removing the electrical plug and should I unplug it when not using it??

I just got the 5G Airport Extreme base station. Set-up was a snap! Maybe 10-15 minutes compared to a friend who got another name brand for his pc and took a couple hours, even having to call customer support! Been working great so far, but am concerned about never turning it off, not only about the possibe harm that could be done to the unit, but also about having an active, open Internet connection 24/7. Before I got my Airport Extreme I was using Ethernet cable with a cable modem that could be placed on "standby" whenever I was not using my Mac for Internet, but since AE5G doesn't have a power switch on the unit, have left it turned on rather than unplugging it by the electrical cord. I did turn AirPort "off" in the menu bar when not using it wth my Mac, but AE is still apparently constantly active, showing a steady green light. Would there be any harm done by plugging it in only when I want to use Wi-Fi, then unplugging it?
Thanks for the help!

That is a matter of debate, since there are two schools of thought regarding power status on a router.
One school maintains that you can turn the device on and off as needed. Makes sense for some folks. The advantage of this is that it might save a bit of electricity, although the Extreme draws very little power most of the time.
Another school believes that there is a reason why Apple did not even place an "Off" switch on the device. It's designed to run 24/7.
Leaving the Extreme on will place far less stress on the electrical components in the device since they stay in an "idle" state most of the time, drawing very little current. Powering any electrical device up sends a sudden rush of current through the device, which places far more stress on a device than if it is simply left on.
It depends on your priorities. If you want to save electricity, your decision is already made. If you intend to prolong the life of the router, then consider leaving it on, as Apple intended.
A compromise position might be to leave the Extreme on most of the time and power if off for long weekends or vacation periods when you will be away. Remember that the Extreme must establish all new network connections every time that it powers back up....perhaps another reason to simply leave it on.

How to get undo datafile number without opening the database ?

I cannot open the database because the my undotbs01.dbf file is corrupted :
SQL> connect sys/... as sysdba
Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> startup mount;
ORACLE instance started.
SQL> alter database open;
alter database open
ERROR at line 1:

I tryed several solutions but I failed. So I want to use RMAN :
set newname for datafile X to '/location/undotbs01.dbf';
But how can I get X which is the file number for my undo tablespace ? I cannot call
SELECT tablespace_name,file_id,file_name FROM dba_data_files;
because my database cannot be opened.

hi,
hi have this problem and i cannot solve it, the customer has not backup data base
can you help me ?

ORA-01548 after bounce the Database...

Hi All,
User has run some job which occupied 50G in undo tablespace. Now job is finished and I want to reclaim that 50G from undo.
So I created another undo tbs of small size say 2G and switch to new undo tbs.. all segment is online with new undotbs but one segment having "partial available" status with old undotbs.
I bounce the DB also but still when going to delete older undotbs its throwing me this error:
drop tablespace undotbs2 including contents and datafiles
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01548: active rollback segment '_SYSSMU23$' found, terminate dropping
tablespace
when I check how many extent with this "_SYSSMU23$" segment..it gives 384 rows with "ACTIVE" status.
select owner,segment_name,tablespace_name,status from dba_undo_extents where segment_name='_SYSSMU23$';
how can I reclaim my undo space ?
Any suggestion?
Thanks...

Hi Nagendra,
select tablespace_name,status,count(*) as HOW_MANY from dba_undo_extents group by tablespace_name,status
TABLESPACE_NAME STATUS HOW_MANY
UNDOTBS2 EXPIRED 1195
TESTUND EXPIRED 294
TESTUND UNEXPIRED 116
from the above query it shows UNDOTBS2 having expired extents but with one of the segment it showing "active" status as below:
SQL> select owner,segment_name,tablespace_name,status from dba_undo_extents where segment_name='_SYSSMU23$';
OWN SEGMENT_NAME TABLESPACE_NAME STATUS
SYS _SYSSMU23$                     UNDOTBS2                       ACTIVE
SYS _SYSSMU23$                     UNDOTBS2                       ACTIVE
SYS _SYSSMU23$                     UNDOTBS2                       ACTIVE

Open a subreport from an existing report without hitting the database

Hello Experts,
I want to open a webi subreport with the data from an exisiting webi report directly not from database.currently i am using hyperlink on some measure values and in theses hyperlink, i am using opendocument query and passing the values in the filters created at subreport side,but every time i clicked on hyperlink its opening the subreport but taking data from data base instead of existing report.
i also tried in this way by passing a context from parent report :
I am having country column in my report which is having many countries, i want that when i click on england it should open the subreport with the data only for england from parent report not from database.
="<a href=\"http://server:port/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sType=wid&sDocName="URLEncode("aaa")"&sReportName="URLEncode("aaa")"&sReportPart=table name at subreprt""&sPartContext=/country[england]""&sWindow=New""&sRefresh=N""\" title=\"click\" target=\"_new\" nav=\"web\">"[country]"</a>"
Thanks in Advance:)

Automatic Archiving without losing the attached document ?

Hi Experts,
I wanted to go ahead with retention period so that documents will get auto archived after retention period.
But since my last post (and your expert opinion), I understood that there is nothing like Retention period in DMS.
If we want to achieve the mention functionality ...we need to do some developments.
Now lets say I deletes the required documents with the help of program or CV04N...my next job is to archive the deleted (marked for deletion) documents....AUTOMATICALLY.
2nd thing is after archival I should be able to see my attached document with DIR when I retrieve the archived DIR.
waiting for suggestions..
Kind Regards,
Sunil

Archiving is in itself a separate engagement which needs planning.You can move the data to an external offline system bearing in mind the statutory data retention rules. You can also store the archived data on tapes or optical devices depending on the frequency of access.
The below links illustrate techniques to archive and store data onto these external systems

Pickup a class in application without bouncing the WLS

Hi,
I've an application(deployed on WLS) which basically takes the name of a class and delegates it to another process, which then loads the class and calls a few methods reflectively. For this, I want the second process to reference to a directory(outside the ear) so that it looks for the resolution in this directory.
Now, the problem is, how to make the application refer to this directory. I do not want them to be loaded by server classloader as they will unnecessary be available to all other applications. So, adding the name to server classpath or deploying it as shared library is ruled out.
Other requirement is, the jar file can be introduced dynamically by a user into the directory and the application should take care of it for any references. Bouncing application should do this needful.
Does WLS have a feature to cater to this need?
Thanks.

hi thanks at first,
the thing you mentioned could be a problem, but I dont think it is.
If I have the full qualified name (which I havent) then everything goes normal. I only have to load the "twoButtons" class and not the other (actionadapter class), so I dont think this is the point. In this case the twoButtons constructor constructs an object of the actionadapter class and everything goes well. The bad thing is though that I do not have the full qulified name :(
Invocation target exception tells me (in own words): Tried to acces the constructor of the actionadapter class (which is not public) out of class reflectionTest class .
reflectionTest is the class where the reflection stuff happens and the twoButttons class is defineClass() ed.
The problem is, only twoButtons class has the rights to call methods from the actionadapter class, the reflection class does not. BUT: I do not call the actionadapter methods from the reflection class. I call them only from the twoButtons class.
I hope somebody understands my problem :)

Deleted archive files during the datafile offline period

Dear Gurus
I want to report a mishap that happened in one of our system.
I made one of the data files x01.dbf offline(the only datafile for that tablespace say X )
Now unfortunately i deleted the archives during the period the datafile was offline ..
Now it is not letting me do any operation like any ddl operation ..
How can I restore the database back to normal .
Thanks in advance
abhi

Hi again,
Dear GuruOh la, I'm not a guru, just an old oracle newwbie!
I did not understand what was that 7 error game :)Lesson learned: do not try to translate obscure French stuff :-)
About your problem, if this does not work, you have only one possibility: drop it. If the drop fails you'll have to bounce the database in order to do that.
If you have to "recover" from the tablespace loss, you'll have to do some TSPITR (Tablespace Point In Time Recovery).

Bouncing Oracle Database Creating Broken Pipe Error On Oracle 9iAS 9.0.3

We published and deployed PL/SQL web services using JDeveloper 9.0.3 wizard on Oracle 9iAS 9.0.3. We bounced the database nightly, in turn, closes the application server connection between 9iAS and the database. This causes the broken pipe error. Bouncing the 9iAS is not an option for us.
Is this an Oracle 9iAS bug? Is there a workaround to this problem without bouncing the application server?
Please help.
Tom

I have discovered a strange thing. I created a new OC4J instance which I called it: Intelap
When I deploy to the recently created instance Intelap, jdeveloper success. But when I set OC4J_home in the optional instance field, I got the previous error.

Unable to connect to the database, using SCAN in 11gR2

Hi ALL,
I am in big trouble, I am working on 11gR2 4 node RAC database, and 1hr ago i have bounce the database for some issue. It came up and working fine for me, when i am connecting from the server. but the users (Performance team) who are connecting from application, it is not able to connect with SCAN address. we haven't changed any thing at the DB level or at OS level. and even i is not connecting from SQLDeveloper. It is thronging error message saying that "IO Exception: The network adopter could not establish the connection"
What are the things i need to check, Please give me your valuable suggestions and all of the application team is waiting for this issue to be resolved.
2 days ago, we have added 4th node to the existing 3node RAC. Is that given any issues.
below are the things i checked.
$->srvctl status scan
SCAN VIP scan1 is enabled
SCAN VIP scan1 is running on node qysqalccoredb01
SCAN VIP scan2 is enabled
SCAN VIP scan2 is running on node qysqalccoredb03
SCAN VIP scan3 is enabled
SCAN VIP scan3 is running on node qysqalccoredb02
$->srvctl status scan_listener
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN1 is enabled

SCAN listener LISTENER_SCAN2 is running on node qysqalccoredb03
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN3 is enabled
SCAN listener LISTENER_SCAN3 is running on node qysqalccoredb02
why it is not running on 4th node.
Also i have updated the SCAN info by resetting the local_listener parameter to use the scan address.
alter system set local_listener='(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=host-vip.ieptc.intuit.net)(PORT=1521))))' sid='sid1' scope=both;
do i need to do the below one as well.
alter system set remote_listener='scan-domain-name.example.com:1521' scope=both sid='*'
Please help me and thanks in advance.

Trying to configure syslog process,to write the database audit logs

Folks,
Running Oracle 10g R2 on Sun Solaris v 10.
I am trying to configure my database environment, so it will write all the database audit logs to a location, where Oracle userid on unix cannot modify/delete it.
To accomplish my goal, so far I have done the following:
I have set the following parameter with these values
audit_file_dest /flood/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/rdbms/audit
audit_sys_operations TRUE
audit_trail OS
Also I asked my system administrator , to make an entry in the syslog.conf file at location /etc
He made the following entry
local3.notice /var/log/oraaudit.log
and restarted the syslog process
I also made the following entry
alter system set audit_syslog_level='LOCAL3.NOTICE' scope=spfile and bounced the database.
But after starting the database, i will don't see any oraaudit.log file at the location /var/log
Any help will be much appreciated.
Regards
Ashish

Hello Srini,
I mentioned in my posting , that I already set AUDIT_SYSLOG_LEVEL=LEVEL3.NOTICE value.
Also the permission on /var/log is such the Oracle unix userid cannot write to it and that is what I want. Since if Oracle userid can write, it can modify/delete the audit log also , which we are trying to prevent.
Thanks
Ashish

BRRESTORE command opens the database automatically

Hi All,
We have a very old version of SAP (3.1i) running on Oracle 7. We are currently using the below command to backup and restore the database:
brbackup -u / -c -m all -t offline -a -c force -cds
brrestore u2013m full u2013b logxx.aft u2013c
But, using these commands we are unable to recover any archive logs as the database is in open state after the restore automatically which is generating its own log sequence. We would like the database to be in mount state after the restore.
Please suggest any changes in the brbackup/brrestore commands to fix this.
Thanks
Vijay

Hi All,
I have finally managed to understand how brrestore works. If the database is up and running, and you try to restore to it, the database will automatically open after the restore is complete.
If you want the database not to start, then you have to manually stop the database before you proceed with the restore.
Thumb rule: The database will take its initial status (before restore) after the restore.
This is specific to BRRESTORE and may be specific to my scenario (HPUX, Oracle 7.3 & SAP 3.1i)
Thanks for all your help.
Regards,
Vijay

I am confused about the database!!!

My program needs to read some data from Access tables.
Can my program still run on another machine which does not have
Access installed?
Or does it mean that if my program needs to get data form a certain
database I must have the software that produce the database installed?
If not so,what shall I do if I want to read data without installing the
database software???
I am badly in need of the answer.So please do help me !!!

,but another question
If I want to run the same program on Linux(for my
program
is for a robot which has the linux os),does
it mean that I must change my database.
Can I run my program without changing my
database as you know it is quite boring .You start by checking out whether the database you want to use is available on the platforms you want your program to run on. You then ask the database provider what it will cost. The next step is to figure out if there's a portable way to connect Java with the database in question. If it is it's just the implementation left -:) This is systems work you do before you even start coding.

Is the only way to import large amount of data and database objects into a primary database is to shutdown the standby, turn off archive log mode, do the import, then rebuild the standby?

I have a primary database that need to import large amount of data and database objects. 1.) Do I shutdown the standby? 2.) Turn off archive log mode? 3.) Perform the import? 4.) Rebuild the standby? or is there a better way or best practice?

Instead of rebuilding the (whole) standby, you take an incremental (from SCN) backup from the Primary and restore it on the Standby. That way, if, for example
a. Only two out of 12 tablespaces are affected by the import, the incremental backup would effectively be only the blocks changed in those two tablespaces (and some other changes in system and undo) {provided that there are no other changes in the other ten tablespaces}
b. if the size of the import is only 15% of the database, the incremental backup to restore to the standby is small
