Upgradation of 11g database R1 to R2
Hi
Currently we are on 11g database R1 and we want to upgrade to R2 soon.Please let me know the steps on how to do this.Is there any patch that we need to update on 11g database R2.Is there any document which lists all the instructions for upgradation of 11g R1 to 11g R2.

which can be more detailed that the 11gr2 Upgrade Guide and should be updated with latest known limitations and bugs....and likely more accessible these days.

Poor performance on Discoverer after upgrade to 11g database
Hello,
We have two customers who have experienced a sharp decline in the time it takes to run their queries when they have upgraded to an 11g database.
One was a full Disco upgrade from 4 to 10 plus the database upgrade.
The other was purely a database upgrade - Discoverer version was already 10g.
They were both on 9i database.
They are both Oracle Apps - and the reports are based on a mixture of everything from standard tables to custom tables - there is no pattern (or one that we have seen) in the poorly performing reports.
I have not seen much on metalink regarding this - has anyone else come across why this would be?
It does seem to be only Discoverer - standard reports and the app are performing as expected.
Any advice welcome,
Thanks
RachaelHi Rachael
There are additional database privileges needed for running in 10g and 11g databases that weren't needed in 9i. Here's the typical privileges that I use:
accept username prompt'Enter Username: '
accept pword prompt'Enter Password: '
create user &username identified by &pword;
grant connect, resource to &username;
grant analyze any to &username;
grant create procedure, create sequence to &username;
grant create session, create table, create view to &username;
grant execute any procedure to &username;
grant global query rewrite to &username;
grant create any materialized view to &username;
grant drop any materialized view to &username;
grant alter any materialized view to &username;
grant select any table, unlimited tablespace to &username;
grant execute on sys.dbms_job to &username;
grant select on sys.v_$parameter to &username;
I appreciate that all of the above are not needed for all users and some are only needed if the user is going to be scheduling.
However, I do know that sys.v_$parameter was not needed in 9i. Can you check whether you have this assigned?
I know this might sound silly too, but you need to refresh your database statistics in order for Discoverer to work well. You might also want to try turning off the query predictor if it is still enabled.

Problem in de-queuing xml messages after upgrade to 11g database
We just upgraded from database 10g to 11g. After upgrade we are facing a problem in processing xml messages smaller than 4000 bytes. Messages larger than 4K bytes are handled correctly.
We have Tibco IM/BW adaptors accessing Oracle AQ through JDBC Thin from other platforms than the DB is on.
These clients connect to the database with an application user (XXIO) which belongs to the APPS schema.
The client makes an enqueue to the queue-table XXIO_I00_I_JMS_Q_TABLE and in USER_DATA-part of the message the client specifies some header-information for the message with the actual data.
The enqueue is made with JDBC Thin 11.1.0.7 and with the aqapi.jar/jmscommon.jar-files from the rdbms 11.1.0.7-installation, so the API towards the database is of the correct version.
When the enqueue is done, the message has correctly been put into the table XXIO_I00_RT_I_JMS_Q_TABLE.
Now to the problem,
For example, we have a message that just has been put into the table, and it has a text_len of 3887.
The text-part of the message is put in text_lob, not in text_vc.
The problem now is that when the propagation starts
(execute DBMS_AQADM.ENABLE_PROPAGATION_SCHEDULE(queue_name => 'XXIO.XXIO_I00_RT_I_JMS_Q'),
the code for dequeue and move of the message, assumes that the text is in text_vc when text_len <= 4000 bytes.
Since that's not the case, the message propably gets errored out, and is put in the errorqueue.
The length of the messages that are put into text_lob vary from 2000 and up, so text_vc seems to be used only
for messages below 2000 bytes now. This problem occurred when we upgraded the DB and client API to 11.1.0.7.
Any pointer will be helpful.

Anybody out there upgraded to 11g database when on RMS 12 ?
I am interested in anybody who has upgraded their RMS 12 installtion to 11g. What were your experiences ?
Did you have to get any patches to make it work (for the DB or for RMS) ?
Do you also have ReIM or RPM 12.0 and using that on 11g?FYI - I got the answer from MOS - RMS 12 is certified on 11g.

Oracle Database upgrade to 11G (Host_Command Issues)
Sorry I'm posting this again. Original post in Database - Upgrade. I'm not getting a lot of clicks in that category
We recently upgraded to Oracle 11g (Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production). Our PL/SQL release: (PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production). We use a lot of host commands inside our PL/SQL stored procedures. One of these included fetching data from an external server and pushing the data into Oracle Tables.
Most of this process is running fine, except the execution never completes. There is no issue data wise. It's just that the Host_command doesn't receive the completion status and seems to be running even though there's nothing going on in the background.
The Oracle e-business suite's concurrent program based on this stored proc also never completes, though it doesn't do anything in the background. For testing purpose, our DBA used 2 insert statements one before and one after the host_command. The insert before the host_command worked but not the one after. Please help! This is happening after we upgraded to 11g 3 weeks ago!
Thanks, Naveen Gagadam.Pl do not post duplicates - Upgrade to 11g, Host Command Inside Stored Proc doesn't end.

Upgrade of RAC database in 10g or 11g
Hi,
Can we upgrade RAC database without downtime like we do patch?

Hi,

RegardsHi,
The Oracle Clusterware software always fully supports rolling upgrades, while the ASM software is rolling upgradeable at version 11.1.0.6 and beyond.
Rolling upgrade: we mean upgrading software (Oracle Database, Oracle Clusterware, ASM or the OS itself) while the cluster is operational by shutting down a node, upgrading the software on that node, and then reintegrating it into the cluster, and so forth one node at a time until all the nodes in the cluster are at the new software level.
For the Oracle Database software (RAC), it is possible only for certain single patches that are marked as rolling upgrade compatible. Most Bundle patches and Critical Patch Updates (CPU) are rolling upgradeable. Patchsets and DB version (10g to 11g) changes are not supported in a rolling fashion, one reason that this may be impossible is that across major releases, there may be incompatible versions of the system tablespace, for example. To upgrade these in a rolling fashion one will need to use a logical standby with Oracle Database 10g or 11g.

Hello,
I was going over the upgrade documention.
When upgrading to 11g from 10.2 database.
The 11g database software is installed in a new oracle_home than run the upgrade DBUA from that new 11g home
and upgrade the 10.2 database oracle_home ?
Is this the correct procedure for upgrading to 11g ?
ThanksUpgrade process consists of two broad steps -
1. Install the new version of the software in a separate/new ORACLE_HOME
2. Upgrade any databases in the older ORACLE_HOME
>
1) Do I install the 11g software only or the started DB and then do the upgrade.
I woud have 3 running DB if i did this.
>
All of the steps are documented in the Upgrade Guide at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28300/toc.htm
Any reason you have chosen 11gR1 instead of 11gR2, which is the newest version ?
>
2) The OUI throws errors that my paths LD_library and oracle _home is already used.
How do I set this prior to installing the 11g software ?
>
You haven't posted enough details of what you did, but I suspect you are trying to install the 11gR1 software in the 10g ORACLE_HOME, which cannot be done. You will need to install in a new/separate ORACLE_HOME - see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32002/toc.htm
>
3) I am alos using a listener from my other 10g oracle_home and not the one I am upgrading.
Do I need to use the 11g listener and stop my 10g listener and copy my files into the 11g listener ?
>
The recommended approach is to use the latest (11gr1 in your case) listener for all oracle databases. As you stated, you will need to stop your 10g listener, configure the 11g listener for your databases and bring up the 11g listener.

Installing 10.1.3.1 (want to upgrade to 10.1.3.4) with 11g Database
I want to install SOA Suite 10.1.3.4 on a new laptop I have. I have ins
I checked the certification matrix and saw that SOA Suite was certified with 11.0.6 version of the Database so I installed the 11g database no problem and went to install the SOA SUite 10.1.3.1 last night (would then patch up to 10.1.3.4 afterwards).
I choose Advanced Install, as I want to put the schemas in my 11g database but when I put in my connection details for the DB a window pops up saying that it must be installed on the correct version of the DB, it lists a load of them but 11g is not one of them (10.2 series was the highest).
So 10.1.3.4 is certified with 11g but you can do the base install on 11g, Is this correct?
Are there any workarounds?
I assume one option is to do a Standard Install where it creates the XE database, then patch up to 10.1.3.4.
Then some how point everthing to my 11g DB afterwards.
Any ideas?
Stuartjust found the solution. One needs to follow patch instructions 6265268 even before starting installation to replace the relevant jar files in the installable.
Also, refer to metalink note 605489.1 -
Problem with statement after upgrading to 11g
Hello,
We recently upgraded to 11g from 9i and one of our statements we routinely use no longer works. The statement is:
delete from ALLEMPLOYEES x where exists( (select * from ALLEMPLOYEES where email_id=x.email_id) minus (select * from X_ALLEMPLOYEES where email_id=x.email_id));
This statement deletes no rows from the ALLEMPLOYEES table. When we run this statement as a check:
(select * from ALLEMPLOYEES) MINUS (select * from X_ALLEMPLOYEES);
We find many rows produced. Why would the delete fail now? We have colleagues still using 9i and use this same delete statement and it works for them with no trouble.Do you have proper indexes?

How to perform 10g RAC upgrade to 11g with Dataguard in place?
OS=LINUX
RDBMS=10.2.0.4
DG=PHYSICAL STANDBY
Below is my understanding
1)Install 11g CRS in NEW_CRS_HOME
2)Install 11g in NEW_ASM_HOME
3)Install 11g in NEW_RDBMS_HOME
4)Export the new NEW_ORACLE_HOME and start up the database with startup upgrade.
5) Run the catupgrade.sql script.
Are there any other steps involve?
In case I have to rollback then how to rollback CRS.Personally I would use DBUA instead of catupgrade.sql, but make sure you follow the upgrade documentation for pre-checks etc. You will also need to use netca to recreate the sqlnet listeners in the 11g homes and register with 11g CRS.
CRS is generally fairly quick to re-install and re-register databases, and this is cleaner than trying to restore OCR and VOTE disks etc. If you prefer to rollback be sure you backup the OCR and VOTE disks (e.g use dd), backup /etc/oracle, CRS_HOME, /etc/init* scripts etc.
The dataguard standby database should roll forward through the upgrade, but you will need to manually register the standby with 11gCRS. Make sure you have your DB and Log create_file_dest's set, as well as standby_file_management=auto. Personally I would manually recover the standby after the upgrade in case I need to use it to fallback.

HSODBC not working after upgrade to 11G
Hi,
I am having trouble with dblinks that worked under 10G but no longer work after upgrading to 11G. For this installation I am running Oracle on Windows 32 bit
and am using a Sybase ODBC driver to connect to a Sybase database.
I did catch the fact that hsodbc has been replaced by dg4odbc and have changed my listener configuration accordingly. However, when I try to use the dblinks I am receiving ORA-28500 errors "Incorrect syntax near 'FROM'"
Any idea on what the problem might be or how to troubleshoot?
Thanks!This kind of problem is commonly related to the QUOTED IDENTIFIER option within the ODBC driver
- Open ODBC Admin and step throug the config; you'll find an option:
EnableQuotedIdentifiers make sure this option is checked.
-Also make sure you have set in your init<dg4odbc>.ora file the parameter: HS_FDS_SUPPORT_STATISTICS=FALSE -
Oracle Discoverer 4i (portal db - oracle 8i) connectivity issue with 11g database
Hi All
We have oracle discoverer 4i with portal db (oracle 8i).
We connect to the external databases using db links in the portal db and the reports will use the db link to retrieve the data from views in the external databases.
External databases we were connecting is oracle 10g version and now we have upgraded these databases to 11g version.
Now i have a created a new db link to this 11g database and i have created a new EUL in portal to connect to this 11g database.
But when i try to create a report using the discoverer from this new EUL after login to the discoverer we get a "cannot connect to database" error.
We have all the necesscary privilege to the user and the new database link works perfectly fine. (when we try to query directly using SQL plus from portal database using this db link the query works perfectly fine).
Im not sure if this is a compatibility issue in connecting from oracle disc 4i to a 11g database.
Can any one advise if this is the case and if there is any workaround for this?
Regards,
RajAre you saying you are having issues with a database link between 8i and 11g (pl post exact versions to 4 digits) ? If so, it should be expected as database links between these two versions are not supported. Is there a reason you cannot upgrade the portal database to at least 10gR2 ?

Dear All,
We plan to upgrade Oracle 9.2.0.1 under Windows 2003 Server 32-bit to Oracle 11g. There are two methods to upgrade using Database Upgrade Assistant (DBUA) and Manual. Which one is tter? Would there be any performance issues?
Do we need DBUA license or it is part of Oracle 11g?
Thanks>
Oracle strongly recommend using DBUA for Oracle Database major releases or patch release upgrades.
The recommended method for upgrading to Oracle Database 11g Release 2 is to use the
Database Upgrade Assistant (DBUA). However, there are circumstances when using the
DBUA is not possible and it is more appropriate to use another method.
>
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/oracle11g/upgrade/presentations/11gr2_upgrade_methods.pdf
>
Choosing a particular method is dependent on several factors. Some of the factors that
help determine which upgrade method to use include the following:
<li>Version from which you are upgrading</li>
<li>Amount of downtime that is acceptable</li>
<li>Preference for a graphical user interface (GUI) versus SQL scripts</li>
<li>Complexity of the upgrade and amount of manual intervention required</li>
<li>Whether additional disk space or hardware resources are required</li>
<li>Whether the upgrade involves a different operating system architecture or migration to a new hardware platform</li>
>
You do not need any DBUA license; it is part of the Oracle Database 11g license.

Phiri
