Upgrade 10.2.0.4 - 11.2.0.3 with ASM on linux

I'm a bit confused by the oracle upgrade documentation - I need to upgrade to 11.2.0.3 from 10.2.0.4 on linux.
I've got a 10.2 database running ASM. I've tested an 11.2 upgrade last year without running an ASM upgrade or grid intall (just to check some compatibility issues at the time).
However I want to run an ASM and a database upgrade. The documentation says (repeatedly) that you should install grid infrastructure first or you'll need to configure it manually. However when I read the Grid Infrastucture documentation it seems to suggest that if you want to upgrade an existing ASM instance (which I do) then you'll have to do it manually in any case.
My biggest concern is this : will a 10.2.0.4 database work with a 11.2 ASM instance ? If it can't, then surely the thing to do is upgrade the database first.

Just you need to Install Grid Infrastructure Home in a separate home and RDBMS software in another separate home.
While Installing GI you need to create ASM Disk groups.
Refer my blogpost Installation of GI on standalone solaris box:
http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2010/10/installation-of-11202-grid.html
ASM rolling upgrade is support from 11gR1 itself. So while upgrade you would bring down you rexisting ASM instance and do the upgrade. So in this process your database wont be available.
See following blog:

  • Upgrade to 11.2 / 11.1 with ASM from 9.2.0.5

    Hi,
    What are the options available to upgrade the database from 9.2.0.5 to either 11.1 / 11.2 with ASM. I know that we can upgade the following. But, how to do with ASM
    9.2.0.5 -> 11.1
    9.2.0.5 -> 9.2.0.8 -> 11.2
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi,
    As per the compatibility matrix of 11gR1 you can upgrade directly from 9.2.0.4 or higher onwards.
    And for 11gR2 you can upgrade directly from 9.2.0.8 or higher onwards.
    Database Server Upgrade/Downgrade Compatibility Matrix [ID 551141.1]
    ASM was a feature introduced from 10g onwards.
    Hence for 11gR1, you should install 11gR1 with ASM and proceed upgrading the database.
    for 11gR2, you should upgrade database to 9.2.0.8 patchset, install 11gR2 with ASM and proceed upgrading the database.
    You can refer to below notes for upgrading your database using manual method.

    Is it possible to recover my data from iCloud backup without working wifi? I have as many other upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2 with the result that the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth no longer works. However, i can connect to iTunes via cable but there is wrong version of backup.

    Answer is no.
    If you want the iCloud backup you have to have n internet connection, thus WiFi.
    The not working WiFi has happened with quite a number of users.
    It is not exactly clear what is the cause but there are suggestions to clear it up:
    Some people have had success by removing an apostrophe from the iPhone name. If your iPhone is called something like “John’s iPhone” then this might work. Go to Settings > General > About > Name and change it to something with no apostrophe.
    Some people have reported success by putting the iPhone into Airplane mode and then going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings, but the problem may return.
    You could also try going to Settings > Control Center and disable Access on Lock Screen then turn your iPhone off and on again.
    Make sure that your router firmware is up to date.
    Try backing up your iPhone and then restoring it. Check how to factory reset an iPhone for details.
    If nothing is working for you, try contacting Apple or take your iPhone into an Apple Store.
    Succes, Lex

    or maybe install Snow Leopard using the disc it came on with my Mac and just set it up from a Time Machine Backup on my external hard drive (since it works under SL)?
    Did you install Lion on an empty partition, or did you upgrade Snow Leopard?  If you upgraded, I'd not recommend erasing it, since your backups are apparently gone.  It's doubtful Snow Leopard will recognize them. 
    It's not just backups on the drive either, there are other important things on there, so why won't they show?
    Mixing Time Machine backups and other data is not a good idea.  See #3 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  It sounds like the whole disk is corrupted.
    I just really don't understand how this happened. Could it not be an issue with WD because they haven't issued firmware to support Lion yet?
    If this is a simple external HD, connected by USB or FireWire, no, unless you installed some of WD's software on it.  That shouldn't prevent it from being seen at all, but anything's possible.

    2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore?  It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store?  Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

    Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
    The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
    If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

    You don't need to have Lightroom 3 and 4 installed on your computer to install Lightroom 5.  Just install Lightroom 5 and input your serial number for 3 in the previous version box and your serial number for 5 in the upgrade box.

    No, it is not possible. When upgrading the iOS on the phone, the only one you can install is the latest version, which for the iPhone 4 is iOS 7.0.4.

    Well, I refuse to sign up to pay Adobe a monthly tribute for life too, but that doesn't mean we are limited to CS3.
    I'm staying with CS6.
    Adobe still sells a perpetual-license to Photoshop CS6 without the subscription model, but it's $700 for the Standard version and a cool $1,000 for the Extended version.
    You haven't mentioned your platform, Macintosh or Windows, so make sure CS3 or any other obsolete version you buy actually runs on a modern operating system.
    Good luck.

  • Upgrading Oracle XML Parser for Java v9.0.4 with Oracle Applications 11i

    Guys, I applied ATG.PF.H.RUP4. In postinstall steps it is mentioned,Upgrading Oracle XML Parser for Java v9.0.4 with Oracle Applications 11i(doc-271148.1)
    which says after applying patch 4038964 do the following--
    AUTOCONFIG ENABLED APPLICATIONS ENVIRONMENT
    If the Oracle E-Business Suite configuration files are maintained using the AutoConfig infrastructure, proceed with the following:
    1. Run the AutoConfig utility.
    2. Go to [JAVA_TOP].
    3. Run the unzip -l appsborg2.zip | grep 9.0.4 command. If there is a file named as .xdkjava_version_9.0.4.0.0_production, which indicates that XML Parser for Java v9.0.4 is installed correctly as part of appsborg2.zip. Otherwise, run ADAdmin to regenerate the appsborg2.zip file.
    4. Restart the application tier server processes such that the new version of Oracle XML Parser for Java will take effect.
    but actually the patch is already applied- 4038964. How do i verify if i need to do these steps or not.
    The xmlparserv2-904.zip file is already there in wrapper.classpath. of jserv.properties, forms.properties. So i think i dont need to do these steps.

    unzip -l appsborg2.zip | grep 9.0.4
    0 04-18-03 20:10 .xdkjava_version_9.0.4.0.0_production
    do i still need to do that step?No, you do not have to since "XML Parser for Java v9.0.4" is already installed as part of appsborg2.zip

  • Database upgrade - Oracle 10g r2 ,RAC(2 Nodes with ASM) upgrade from HP-UX to RHEL 5.9

    Hi All
    I am planning to upgrade our RAC database 2 nodes with ASM from HP-UX to RHEL 5.9.
    Following is our setup
    Current setup:
    Oracle Database 10g r2 (10.2.0.5.0) RAC database.
    Nodes: 2
    Storage: ASM
    OS: HP-UX ia64
    Database Size: 1.2 TB
    New Setup:
    Oracle Database 10g r2(10.2.0.5.0) RAC database
    Nodes: 2
    Storage: ASM
    OS: RHEL 5.9 x86 64
    Since we are moving from a big endian format to a small endian format(HP-UX to RHEL 5.9) the same ASM cannot be used.
    Kindly help me with process and other important documents to be followed.
    Thanks.

    Hi...
    If it was a standlone database concepts like transportable tablespaces, rman would have been convenient.
    Since we are using a RAC database with ASM as storage how do we use these techniques specified in NOTE:733205.1
    Due to endianness issue we cannot use the same ASM instance.
    Along with the new RAC node install a new ASM instance would have to be created.
    Kindly help me with migration for RAC with existing ASM to new Hardware
    Thanks and Regards
