Upgrade oracle8i to oracle10g

Hi..i am newly hired programmer in our company for almost 1 month right now. The version of oracle that they are using is oracle8i. Powerbuilder 5.0 and developer 2000 for there application.(that is obsolete version???? ). The problem is.,....Our IT engineer need to ugrade from windows 2000 server to 2007 server. As i know oracle8i DB Server cannot be installed to windows 2007 server.My question is...is it still possible to upgrade from oracle 8i to 10g? without upgrading from 8i to 9i? I mean, direct upgrade from 8i to 10G? if it successfull we can upgrade our server from 2000 to 2007 server using oracle 10g...
please give me some information or links on how to upgrade from 8i to 10g
thank you and more power.

Sir Mhike,
Good day...Im sorry i didn't mentioned the oracle version/released that we are using. It's oracle8i release 8.1.7.0.0
and im planning to upgrade it to 10gR2. my worry is...does the schemas properties(e.g: its datatypes.,index,views)will not affect the system when i upgrade it to oracleR2?
I Read some article on the net...is it true, that the datatype on oracle8i will changed when i upgrade to 10gR2?
Because if it is,,,,I will revised or modify the codes of the system that they are using in the production. To tell you the truth sir,,,,The system is made from powerbuilder 5.0, and until now....I do the revision on the same version(jurassic).
From now, i have no right to suggest to purchase higher powerbuilder version because im only a new hired programmer and i dont want my senior programmer to be offend or angry with me. may be, after i finished my 3 months proby period.
What is the best solution for this sir?
Thank you.

Export/Import in Oracle8i to Oracle10g

Hi,
We have an Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.6.0.0(32 Bit) running on AIX4.3.3,we are planning to upgrade/migrate it to[b] Oracle10g running on AIX5.3.If i do an export from oracle8i whether i can import it in Oracle 10g without any issues.

Dear All,
Thanks for your efforts.
I have solved this problem and running the db in windows 2000 server without any problem.
Solution:
A tablespace should be created in the same name, size as in the solaris server. we cant transfer a tablespace created by solaris to windows. Before importing the data we need to create a tablespace and assign to the user (empuser).
here is the method that works for me.
1.GENERAL STEPS TO FOLLOW:
WINDOWS 2000 Server:
Install Oracle 9i release 1 (9.0.1.1.1) in windows 2000 server.
Create a database with following parameters;
1. Select 'General Database'
2. Global Database Name: EMP
3. SID: EMP
4. All default Options and click finish to create and start the oracle instance.
5. Login to SQL-PLUS (username: scott, Password: tiger, Hoststring: <empty>)
6. Connect as sys/change_on_install as sysdba;
7. CREATE TABLESPACE empdeploy DATAFILE 'C:\oracle\oradata\EMP\emp_data_new.dbf' SIZE 1000m AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 100m MAXSIZE 2048m EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL;
8. CREATE USER empuser IDENTIFIED BY emppass DEFAULT TABLESPACE EMPDEPLOY TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP;
9. GRANT DBA TO EMPUSER (Im not sure whether i given this command or not, dont use this unless u get error during import)
10. disconnect

http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/sql/create_tablespace.html
SUN-SOLARIS 5.6 (SPARC):
It is running Oracle Enterprise edition 8.1.6.
Get the informations below,
INSTANCE NAME
SID
USER HAVING CONTROL TO THAT INSTANCE (like here it was EMPUSER)
TABLESPACES USED
TABLESPACE NAME
DATAFILE NAME and PATH
ORACLE VERSION
2.EXPORT/IMPORT PROCEDURE:
I) Exporting Database from SOLARIS SERVER:
option-1:
exp empuser/emppass
leave all default options
Select Entire database to export (option 1)
YOU SHOULD GET 'Export terminated successfully without warnings'. (Failure causes may be low disk space, ensure that u have enough disk space)
Option-2:
exp empuser/emppass
leave all default options
Enter the user name whose tables to be exported: EMPUSER
Enter the user name whose tables to be exported: <Enter-to-quit>
YOU SHOULD GET 'Export terminated successfully without warnings'.
Option-3:
exp TRIGGERS=y CONSTRAINTS=y GRANTS=y FILE=expdat.dmp
Username: EMPUSER as sysdba
Password: emppass
leave all default options
Select Entire database to export (option 1)
YOU SHOULD GET 'Export terminated successfully without warnings'.
Option-4 (99% wont Work, RISKY):
EXPORT THE TRANSPORTABLE TABLE SPACE (This is different from exporting tables/data, so if all the above fails then export the Transportable table space and import into windows probably it will fail due to platform issue and CHARACTER SET Conversion)
Now import the expdat.dmp file again and see.
Change the required TABLESPACES READ ONLY.
exp TRANSPORT_TABLESPACE=y TABLESPACES=PMTDEPLOY TRIGGERS=y CONSTRAINTS=y GRANTS=y FILE=expdat.dmp
Username: EMPUSER as sysdba
Password: emppass
YOU SHOULD GET 'Export terminated successfully without warnings'.
Now Again Change the TABLESPACES to READ WRITE. (If you forgot this production server cant able to write to the database, the database will be left in read-only mode.)
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
II) TRANSFERRING EXPORTED DATA FROM SOLARIS TO WINDOWS 2000 Server.
Now from windows system,
Open command prompt.
connect to SOLARIS SERVER USING FTP.
( cd /user1/home/oracle)change to the Path where you have exported the expdat.dmp file.
set the transfer mode to binary (dont use the default ASCII Transfer Mode)
get expdat.dmp
close
quit
Now the database was successfully exported from solaris and transferred to Windows 2000 server.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
III) Importing the Database in Windows 2000 server:
Open a Command prompt,
imp FULL=y IGNORE=n
Enter User Name : empuser
Password : emppass
You should get the same messages what you got during export, with out any other warnings or big messages running in the screen.
After completion you will get,
'Import terminated successfully without warnings'.
+++++++++Now Login thru SQLPLUS using username: empuser, password: emppass++++++++++
#the following query should return the total number of tables (142 here), this should be same as what you get in solaris. If you get 'no rows selected' then the import was failed, may be take a look at creating tablespaces, or around tablespaces)
select * from tab;
142 rows selected.
A kind request:
if you got your problem solved, please update the forum / usergroup and write how you solved the problem. this might be helpful for others who may face the same trouble. for me also there was some old postings that having similar problem. but they haven't given the solution. after their problem solved just left this forums.
Thanks & Regards,

Upgrade cost to Oracle10g

Hi ,
In the file
http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/technology-price-list.pdf
there are info about the price list of all Oracle products. Apart from that , there are info about the upgrade cost. For example for Oracle10g EE the Software Upgrade per named user plus is 176$. My question is :
Is this the upgrade cost of whichever previous version of Oracle (namely , Oracle7 , Oracle8i , Oracle9i) to Oracle10g and only enterprise edition of this previous version..., i mean if there is a previous Oracle9i EE or Oracle9i SE .. the cost upgrade to Oracle10g EE is the same...???
Many thanks.
Simon

Most larger companies purchase the initial license then pay annual fees tusually set to a percentage of the software price that covers maintenance and upgrades plus at least a minimal level of support. Advanced levels of support are usually an additional fee. You may want to check on the original purchase order and see if your site is paying annual fees. The upgrade could well be free (really already paid for).

Migrating from oracle8i to oracle10g

how to migrate oracle8i to oracle10g

Hello,
Check with Application Vendor, majority of Third Party Applications are Schema Based only, so it will be easier to perform schema Export from 8i and import in 10g or 11g (As per Apps to DB Certification)
Seems like you have 8i version which is very Old and it may need cleanup too, which will be done as part of Export Import and you can reclaim additional Space assigned to Datafiles (In case you had lots of data and deleted those - and not able to remove those due to HighWater Mark Issue)

Upgrade Oracle8i JVM

I installed Oracle8i in a Windows NT machine. During installation, jdk1.1.7 was installed as JVM. Now I am trying to use jdk1.2.2 as JVM for Oracle 8i. How can I do so? Thanks!

Install JDK 1.2.2 on the machine. Make sure this is the JVM used by seeting this in PATH before ant java VM.
you can compile the class using JDK1.2 and:
your server is Oracle 8.1.5: Not supported.
your server is Oracle 8.1.6: The is a normal 8.1.6 release configuration and works with no restrictions.
Make sure you add classes12.zip in the classpath for the JDBC and other programs instead of classes111.zip file.

Date Format issue while Connecting to Oracle8i and Oracle10g

Hi All,
While playing around with JDBC drivers, I came across this weird issue. I have a Local machine with Japanese Locale and I have 2 Database Servers that too with Japanese Locales and Oracle 8i and Oracle 10g each. Now, I connect to these database using JDBC drivers for 8i and perform "select sysdate from dual". Then, m getting dates with 2 different format. While 8i being returning Date with 'DD-MON-RRRR' format, 10g returns date with 'DD-MM_RR' format.
Initially I thought it might be because of some VM Locale thing but when I connected to 10g DB from 8i Oracle client, this behaviour did not changed. Which mean in this case also the date format returned ny the query was different.
Guys F1! F1! (Help! Help!) Appreciate your help to understand this process. Links and suggestions welcome... :)

I guess u did not read the whole content. I mentioned this but the difference in behaviour with respect to JDBC drivers made me post this in Java forum.
As I mentioned, it has something to do with the jdbc driver or oracle server itself. Agreed, but what that "something little to do" is the maiin question.
I mentioned that I want to understand this process about how JDBC driver works with Client VM specific Locale settings while interacting with Oracle Database.
Don't you think it could be interesting to know, what it is which brings this difference in results. Its all about clarifying the small bits & pieces which stays unanswered if one overlooks. Its own perception, I felt like asking question, no offense right!

Oracle8i to Oracle10g PL/SQL migration - Please help me

Cannot view BLOB datatypes in Oracle10g

After a successful upgrade from Oracle8i to Oracle10g, I cannot view tables with BLOB datatypes. I'm getting the following error in SQL*PLUS upon quering the table:
SP2-0678: Column or attribute type can not be displayed by SQL*Plus
When i try to do the same thing from TOAD, I'm getting this error instead:
A Query with LOB's requires OC18 mode, but OC17 mode is used.
I have also tried to create a new table with BLOB datatype (since i thought the culprit was a broken migrated data) but I got the same error. What am I missing here????

Hy,
you never could view blobs via sqlplus
you only could use utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2 if there ist text inside your blobs.

Note 1054131 - Invalid DB objects after upgrade

HI,
We performed a migration from SAP 4.6C/Oracle9i.solaris to SAP 4.6C/Oracle10g/HPUX.
Now we need to upgrade SAP4.6C/Oracle10g/HPUX to ECC6.0.
As a prerequisite, I have checked the note
Note 1054131 - Invalid DB objects after upgrade
And I ran the script
SQL> SELECT OWNER, OBJECT_NAME, OBJECT_TYPE FROM DBA_OBJECTS
2 WHERE STATUS='INVALID'
3 AND
4 OWNER='SYS';
OWNER
OBJECT_NAME
OBJECT_TYPE STATUS
SYS
DBMS_REPCAT_FLA
PACKAGE BODY INVALID
SYS
DBMS_REPCAT_MAS
PACKAGE BODY INVALID
OWNER
OBJECT_NAME
OBJECT_TYPE STATUS
SYS
DBMS_REPCAT_UTL2
PACKAGE BODY INVALID
SYS
DBMS_REDEFINITION
OWNER
OBJECT_NAME
OBJECT_TYPE STATUS
PACKAGE BODY INVALID
All the invalid objects are package body, can anyone help me how to proceed with this, can I proceed my upgrade to ECC 6.0 or do I need to delete the package body.
If I want to delete the package body,can you pl give me the commands and also post which whether I need to execute any steps
Pl help
Thanks

Hi,
I guess you are talking about the Oracle Upgrade and not ECC Upgrade, as following are the pre-requisites for an ECC upgrade.
Making Database-Specific Preparations for Oracle
1. Check the value of parameter shared_pool_size:
4 Preparation
Making Preparations at the Database Level
Oracle 9.2: Check the value in file $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init<SID>.ora.
Oracle 10.1 and higher:
select NAME, VALUE from v$parameter where name=shared_pool_size;
select NAME, VALUE from v$parameter where name=shared_pool_reserved_size;
If the value is lower than 150 MB, increase it to at least 150 MB (400 MB is better), and restart the
database.
2. Log on as user <sapsid>adm at the operating system level.
3. Log on to the database as the Oracle user system with sqlplus
4. Check the resource quotas of the database user SAPR3 or SAP<SAPSID>:
Oracle error 1536 can occur during the upgrade if the resource quotas of database user SAPR3
orSAP<SAPSID> are limited. Make sure that these quotas are unlimited. Check whether the table
DBA_SYS_PRIVS contains one of the following entries:
grantee=SAPR3/SAP<SAPSID>,privilege=UNLIMITED TABLESPACE,adm=YES
grantee=SAPR3/SAP<SAPSID>,privilege=UNLIMITED TABLESPACE,adm=NO
To do this, enter the following SQLPLUS statement:
select * from dba_sys_privs where grantee = SAPR3/SAP<SAPSID>;
If this entry does not exist, enter the SQLPLUS statement:
grant unlimited tablespace to sapr3/SAP<SAPSID>;
5. Log off from the database with the command quit.
6. Only if using the dictionary managed tablespaces function:
Make sure that the storage parameters MAXEXTENTS and NEXT have the correct values for certain tables and indexes. Otherwise, they may overflow during the upgrade. The Oracle-specific upgrade SAP Note contains the tables and the required minimum values.You can display the current settings with BRSPACE. The index names are not constant. However, you can also determine these names with BRSPACE. SAP Note 11777 describes how to change the parameters NEXT and MAXEXTENTS.
7. Only valid for: SAP R/3 3.1I
Make sure that parameter OPTIMIZER_MODE is set to OPTIMIZER_MODE=RULE.
For Oracle 9.2, check and, if necessary, edit the following Oracle profile:
$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init<SAPSID>.ora
For Oracle 10.1. and higher, use the following statements:
Sqlplus /nolog
Connect /as sysdba
Alter system set OPTIMIZER_MODE=RULE scope=spfile;
8. Only if you do not switch off archiving during the upgrade:
If you want to leave brarchive running during the upgrade to avoid archiver stuck situations (brarchive -f ...), proceed as follows:
a) Create a temporary copy of brarchive:
4 Preparation
4.23 Making Preparations at the SAP System Level
cp /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/exe/run/brarchive /tmp
b) Start brarchive as user ora<sapsid> from the temporary directory /tmp/brarchive -f ...
c) After the upgrade, delete the copy of brarchive.
This procedure avoids upgrade errors caused by the program files being overwritten during the upgrade.
9. If your database version is already higher than the minimum version for the new release, we recommend that you exchange the DBA tools (such as BRSPACE) for the upgrade. The Database Software Oracle DVD for the database contains the up-to-date tools that you unpacked on the current kernel when you migrated the database. After you execute PREPARE, unpack this archive again into the exe subdirectory of the upgrade directory. This overwrites the DBA tools optimized for the minimum required database version with the tools best suited to your database version.
And if you are talking about an Oracle Upgrade then you just need these to compare once you have upgraded to 10g.
3.9 Checking for Invalid Database Objects
This optional step lets you check if there are any invalid database objects before the database upgrade to Oracle database 10g starts. After the upgrade it helps you distinguish database objects that have become invalid due to the upgrade process from those that were already invalid to start with.
Procedure
1. Execute the following commands:
SQL> spool invalid_objects
SQL> select unique object_name, object_type, owner from dba_objects where status
= 'INVALID';
SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
SQL> select unique object_name, object_type, owner from dba_objects where status
= 'INVALID';
SQL> spool off
A list of invalid objects before the upgrade is now generated.
2. Check the list of invalid objects after the upgrade.
If any objects in the list from before the upgrade are also in the list of invalid objects after the upgrade, you can be sure that this is not due to the upgrade process.

Suhas

Oracle10g and 8i on the same server

Hello,
I have seen a similar message but prefer ask my question because
I have to installer Oracle8i and Oracle10g Rel. 2 on a HP-UX 11.11 server.
Is it possible on the same server ?
by creating two different oracle_home ?
Aren't any compatibility problem ? Concerning the system, due to prequires ?

Oracle10g with php4 connection

Hi,
Is there anyone can help me with the connection with oracle10g and php4. it is giving me an fatal error for the connection function ocilogon().says it cannt find the function.On the other hand oracle 8i is working nicely with it.I will be greatfull for the reply.
Hasnain

it will be difficult to say anything without seeing the relevant pieces of code that establish the connection.
Can you login to the same DB using SQL*Plus?
If yes, which SQL*Plus - Oracle8i or 10G or both?
Is your environment setup for Oracle8i or Oracle10G?

Move 9i Database to 10g Server

Hi Everyone!
I've got two DB servers, one running Oracle 9i, and the other running Oracle 10g.
My job is to move the existing datbases from the 9i server to the 10g server.
What is the recommended way to do this? Which tools are available to assist me?
Thanks!
Chris.

I wrote about my approach in a similar scenario
Re: Migrate from Oracle8i to Oracle10g R3
Though, that was for upgrading from 8i to 10g, but almost it holds good here also.

谢谢大家支持！ :)

After an import, replace the init.ora file?

I have just successfully imported a database from Oracle8i to Oracle10g. Now, is it safe to replace the init.ora file?

Replace the 10g init file with the 8i? Nope. You should be reading the release notes and upgrade guide, and taking into account the obsolecense of some parameters, the introduction of new ones, etc.
Also, your control files are probably in a different location, you have different RBS's etc..

Upgrade oracle8i to oracle10g
