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.

    Assuming you see the above error message in the alert log file, which was your original post, follow the below steps:
    1 Get the 'ospid' value from the error
    2. Issue the below command:
    SQL> select request_id,ORACLE_PROCESS_ID
      2 from fnd_concurrent_requests
      3 where request_id = 15598;
    3. After obtaining the request_id
    4, Query it from the front-end using SYSADMIN responsibility
    Hopefully this should get you the respective concurrent report/program.
    Thanks &

  • Upgrade PHYSICAL STANDBY database to 10g from 9i

    Hello everybody,
    Please can you provide me the details for Manual upgrading 9i STANDBY database to 10g. Any special parameters that we have to set on the Primary database..
    Any sites with the information available would be great.
    Thanks everybody for your help.

    There is no in-place upgrade process to move from 9i to 10g. You have to upgrade your primary and then reinstantiate your standby (using Oracle10g). You may like to keep your 9i standby in tact until your upgrade of 9i primary to 10g is completely successful.....just to ensure that you have a fast, easy and reliable fall-back plan.
    Thanks

  • Error after upgrading BI Publisher report from 10g to 11g

    Hi All,
    I have migrated the BI Publisher from 10g to 11g. The upgrade was done using the upgrade assistant and the installation process was a success.
    However whenever I try to access the reports in 11g after migration I get the following error:
    oracle.xdo.servlet.CreateException: Data Model definition not found:/dlypurge.xdm.
    I have tried modifying the .xdo to include the following:
    <dataModel url="/RMS/dlypurge/dlypurge.xdm"/> where dlypurge is one of the reports. However in the BI Publisher does not seem to access the latest .xdo file.
    Any suggestions on how to rectify the error.

  • Upgrading ebs database from 10g to 11g

    Hi,
    By following Interoperability Notes Oracle EBS 11i with Oracle Database 11gR2 (11.2.0.1) [ID 1265268.1]
    i am doing a test upgrade.
    As part of upgrade, only the oracle home location is changed. sid, host and port all are same as previous.
    After running dbua, for autoconfig, changing the OH path in xml file and run autoconfig is fine? or any other steps are needed?
    Thanks,
    Kavitha

    Hi,
    Could you please tell us which step you are refering to in the document. During upgrade you do not have to change the ORACLE HOME any where in XML file
    But you need to run perl adbldxml.pl
    As mentioned in step 22 of "Interoperability Notes Oracle EBS 11i with Oracle Database 11gR2 (11.2.0.1) [ID 1265268.1]"
    On application tier
         Source the env file
         $$ADPERLPRG $AD_TOP/bin/admkappsutilpl
    Copy appsutil.zip to $ORALCE_HOME/.
    Unzip –o appsutil.zip
    cp –r $11g oracle home <which came with rapidwiz> $ORACLE_HOM/appsutil/jre
    On the database tier

  • Check list for upgrading from 10g to 11g when there is a schema replication

    Hi
    We are looking to upgrade one of our production database from 10g to 11g
    Currently this database has one schema that is replicated to 2 other databases using Oracle streams.
    The replication is excluing DDLs and excluding several other application tables.
    What should I do pre and post the upgrade ?
    should we remove the stream configuration all together and rebuild it after the upgrade ?
    I was hoping that we can first upgrade the two target databases to 11g and then the source database, without impacting our streams configuration at all
    Is that possible ?
    Is there any documentation on the subject ?
    thanks in advance
    Orna

    Pl post the OS versions of the source and target servers, along with exact (4-digit) versions of "10g" and "11g". I do not have any experience with streams, but the 11gR2 Upgrade Doc suggests that you upgrade the downstream target databases first before upgrading the source - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10819/upgrade.htm#CIAFJJFC

    1- ORA-01408: such column list already indexed: can I ignore this since the table is already indexed?
    2- ORA-01503: CREATE CONTROLFILE failed
    ORA-01166: file number 288 is larger than MAXDATAFILES (100)
    ORA-01110: data file 288: '$ORACLE_HOME/apps_st/data/PROD/system10.dbf'
    I have looking the directory $ORACLE_HOME/apps_st/data/PROD/ and system10.dbf is there. does this mean the error can be ignored and the DB can operate normally?
    how can I avoid the above errors in the future

    can you please suggest the solution for this.
    thanks a lot.

    I'm not sure what you're doing is supported.
    You are taking a 10g database and restore and recover it using 11g software.
    I think you are allowed to do that with 10g software only.
