Two oracle home 11g and 10g

hi all
i have al-ready installed oracle 11g on my xp and created database then
when i want to install oracle 10g .it installed sucessfully
but i cannot connect to any of the oracle software
as i put the SAME oracle_base for both the ORACLE 11g and oracle 10g
Can anyone help me how to have two oracle home on a single machine xp?
Thanks
Misin

Hi,
there isnt any problem.
During instalation you set ORACLE_BASE. It could be the same for both version but you have to set diffrent ORACLE_HOME
Samething like this
(it's on linux but the same is on win )
echo $ORACLE_BASE
/opt/app/oracle
for 10g
echo $ORACLE_HOME
/opt/app/oracle/product/10/db10g
for 11g
echo $ORACLE_HOME
/opt/app/oracle/product/11/db11g
Now when do you want to run 10g set 10g enviroment and for 11g ORACLE_HOME form 11g.

Two oracle homes 8 and 10

Hi,
on a windows 2003 server I have Oracle 10g and Oracle 8.1.7.
When we start listener of 10g , it deos not start listener for 8.1.7 data base. For starting 8.1.7 Listener I should go to Oracle_HOME/bin of 8.1.7.
Is there any way to resolve this in order to start Listener for 8.1.7 with 10g listener ? How to include 8.1.7 Db in SID_LIST_LISTENER of 10g listener.ora?
The same we can not use SQLPLUS of 10g to connect to 8.1.7 data base . We should do this from 8.1.7ORACLE_HOME/bin. How can I change to be able to connect from every directory ?
Many thanks.

Use oracle netmanager to include oracle 8i database service name in to 10g listner or else manually include 8i SID and oracle home in to 10g listner file.
Netmanager can be started by typing netmgr on command prompt
e.g
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(SID_NAME = orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1)
(SID_NAME = ORCL)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = TSH1)
(ORACLE_HOME = /data2/oracle/ora8i)
(SID_NAME = TSH1)
2)
in 10g Home you need to configure tnsnames.ora for the 8i database to be connected. Put the 8i server ip and SERVICE_NAME and port in 10g tnsnames.ora file. You can find this file in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
TSH1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.16.21.29)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = tsh1)
)

Two oracle home in System

Previously I have used oracle 9i Client. After that I have installed Oracle 10 g client.Now In my machinne , have two oracle homes(Oracle 9i and 10g ).I want delete the Oracle 9i home from my machine.
Help me.
Thanks,
Anzy

Technically it's safe to remove 9i ORACLE_HOME without affecting 10g.
However sometime you might have some application compiled with old 9i installation and depend on it.
Make a backup of 9i home before remove it just in case.

Need of Two Oracle Home in R12

I am a newbie apps dba and was going through the oracle documentation. Where I learnt that in r12 there are two ORACLE_HOME 10.2.0 and 10.3.0. I tried to research regarding the same but couldn't find anything conclusive enough that would clear my fundamentals regarding the need for having 2 ORACLE_HOME. Of what I have understood , 10.2.0 is Developer Home which hosts the Apache, forms server etc and 10.3.0 hosts the JAVA/html server etc. Is my understanding correct regarding the same ? and what is the use and advantage of having two Oracle Homes? Do explain me in laymen terms as I am still a newbie!

BhaviSavla;

Two oracle homes in linux!

Hello !
Can we make two oracle homes in Linux .
In one home i have to install 8i database and in the other home i have to install 9iAS.
What i think is , for two oracle homes in linux u need to make two oracle users first ,and in two different bash_profile file u have to give the path of oracle home. So this thing will not allow to start
your database every time. u have to change user every time and then start your database .
This thing will create problem .
I have tried this thing on NT and it worked . I mean i made two oracle Homes and on one home i installed 8i and on other home i installed 9iAS. and it worked uccessfully.
How can i do it on Linux .
Regards

I don't see why not. I used to use Red Hat and it worked the same.
Say you want to start the database, open a terminal and do something like
su - oracle
<give password>
. setupdbenv
small script you write to set your SID, ORACLE_HOME, etc
then start the database in that terminal.
Similarly, for Oracle9iAS, log on using the correct user (root?), set the environment using something like . setupiasenv, and do the apachectl thing.
I have 5 different Java environments I can setup in this way. Would be impossible if I used .bashrc or .profile to setup my environments.

No you don't need a separate user. Just a shell script to change the environment.
This is fairly standard on all unix platforms and is covered in the manuals, generally you run .oraenv or .coraenv which is really just a shell script which resets the environment.(theres probably a bash shell script for linux I haven't checked). However you can write your own to suit you needs. Generally the format is that the script it prompts you for an instance name and sets the environment approppriately but it could prompt you for anything.
for example
echo "which environmnet do you want"
read OENV
case $OENV in
9) ORACLE_HOME=....
ORACLE_SID=....;;
8) ORACLE_HOME=....
ORACLE_SID=....;;

One lieneter for two oracle homes?

Hi
If I have two Oracle Homes on the same servers (say, 10.2.0.4 and 10.2.0.5), do I need to configure two listeners (one for databases of each Home) OR one listener (from the higher version Oracle home probably) will be good enough? If one listener is enough, is there special configuration for such case?
Best regards

No, the listener from the most recent release would be sufficient for all the databases running on the machine.

If you source the application env file APPS<CONTEXT_NAME>.env file under $APPL_TOP directory then this will set ORACLE_HOME to 10.1.2

Environment Variables in a single host same user two Oracle homes OAS

Hello All.
I've been googleing and looking over otn site but I cannot find solution to my question that, perhaps, is pretty easy.
I have an OAS 10g installation in a Linux single node.
I've made the installation the INFRA and the MT with the same user (oracle)
If I set the ORACLE_HOME in the oracle user .bash_profile my command lines will work just for the ONE of the Oracle Home (the one pointed in the profile).
I have two solutions:
1. Make the .bash_profile dynamic. that is to program like a menu to ask what Environment Variables to load (infra's or MT's.)
2. Make like .bat files to just call them and set whatever I need.
Sounds simple, but I have no idea how to make or program any of them. I am pretty much a newbie in unix shell script programming.
Thanks in advance any help.

Hi
This is for test purpose.
I know oracle dont enjoy having same SID for 2 instances in same host.
I was reading about it and seems is possible on UNIX machines. So i tried to do in a red hat linux enterprise 4.
But with dbca, im always stoped by oratab, cause cant have same oracle_sid in oratab.
Any idea how to do it?
Not using dbca and making the database manually via script?
ThanksWell, if you read this link,
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/startup.htm#CNCPT601
And from here, this quote,
>
Multiple instances can run concurrently on the same computer, each accessing its own physical database. In large-scale cluster systems, Real Application Clusters enables multiple instances to mount a single database.>
One instance can be used only by one single database on a box. There may be another instance of the same name available but Oracle won't let you open that database. You will receive,
ORA-01102 cannot mount database in EXCLUSIVE modeCause: Some other instance has the database mounted exclusive or shared.
Action: Shut down the other instance or mount in a compatible mode.>
So , in any case, you are limited to one single database and one instance. As Paul mentioned, using different case, you may be able to achieve this but that still can't be called a true test as on *nix, case does matter and ORCL and orcl are going to be considered as two different databases.

Two Oracle Homes

OS: Windows XP, 32-bit
Oracle DB 1: Oracle 9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.7.0
Oracle DB 2: Oracle10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0
How can I manage environment variables like ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID for both oracle databases?
What I do now:
Depending on the DB I want to use I set up ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID accordingly, describe the path to the oracle home directory in the PATH env variable and start the appropriate oracle service from Services.
As you can imagine this is unthinkable.
(Besides, I noticed that in the Registry I have key for oracle home only for the 10g DB. I don't know why is this like that. But for Oracle 9i I have no keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> SOFTWARE -> ORACLE.)
Could anyone suggest cleverer method to manage both databases in windows without the need manually to set variables each time when I switch?

Perhaps one easy method was to setup 2 batch files, e.g.:
C:\WINDOWS> copy con 9.bat
@echo off
set ORACLE_SID=inst9
set ORACLE_BASE=path_to_base
set ORACLE_HOME=path_to_home
etc...
prompt [oracle 9i] $p$g
echo "Environment Oracle 9i"
Control-Z Return
Create a 10.bat with appropriate data too.
If you put the batch files in C:\windows they will be in your path and you can simply type "9" or "10" depending on which Oracle environment you need.

As already said, there is no problem to have different oracle version in different ORACLE_HOME directories on same server box. 
For install, please read the associated Installation Guide.

Info required : Oracle Clusterware 11g and Veritas (SFRAC) storage

Hello,
One of my requirement is to Install Oracle clusterware 11g on top of Veritas Cluster. That is because we are using Veritas Storage.
OS : Solaris 10
Please share any iinformation on this regard.
Thanks,
Kam

Hi Kamalesh,
thanks, sorry, if I was not clear enough in my answer.
The reason, I pointed you to the Veritas documentation, was to say that IF there is a certain patch to be applied dependent of the Veritas SFRAC version you use, either for Oracle or for Veritas, this should be described in the Veritas documentation (as well as the respective certification note(s) provided in My Oracle Support -> Certification, as you can only use a certified combination of SFRAC and Oracle RAC on the same system). The Veritas documentation will also describe the installation and configuration of the stack.
The main issues I have seen with such systems is mainly the configuration: The Veritas SFRAC and Oracle Clusterware need to integrate (the skgxn is the point of integration), which would result in a default misscount for Oracle Clusterware of 600 seconds (instead of the typical 30 seconds in an Oracle Only Stack). You can check the misscount and skgxn used in the cssd log. It will mention so during startup.
If the installation of the two cluster solutions is performed the right way (as described in the documentation linked), then this integration will happen during the installation of Oracle Clusterware, which is important, as it is very hard to enable it later and you will most likely have to re-install Oracle Clusterware. So, preparation is important here.
Once you installed the stack, you should be fine regarding patches, as Oracle would recommend the same patches for such a stack as for any other. Veritas might have additional recommendations, though. The same applies when thinking about rolling patches. Those are probably not possible due to dependencies on the underlying vendor cluster solution in such cases (exceptions might apply and you need to ask Veritas). Oracle Clusterware and the rest of the stack would remain to be rolling upgradeable as documented for cases, in which no vendor cluster is used.
As you can see, running such a configuration is more complex. You need to think about two layers and you need to ask two vendors any time you are in doubt of a procedure to be sure again. This may influence the stability of the system. Commonwealth Bank of Australia therefore decided 3 years ago to move away from having Veritas as the underlying cluster solution under Oracle Clusterware and use the Oracle Only Stack.
Now, I know that you have the necessity to use Veritas due to the storage management and other Oracle customers made this point before. However, with Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Rel. 2 and the newly introduced ACFS cluster file system, more and more of them realize that Veritas does not provide them with enough benefits to not only pay for something that does not even make the stack easier.
Hope that helps (this time) - at least a bit. Thanks,
Markus
