Upgrading from 10.2 to 11.2 using Physical Standby

Hi
We have a 10GR2 EE database in a RAC cluster and we want to upgrade the 10GR2 database to 11GR2 non-RAC on a different server.
We'd prefer to do this using a Physical Standby to avoid down time as much as possible.
Any suggestions as to the best way to do this?
Thanks

Do i have to upgrade from version 10.6.8 to use icloud on my mac book air?

do i have to upgrade from version 10.6.8 to use icloud on my mac book air?

I'm afraid so. The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mountain Lion preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

HT201413 upgrading from version 10- now i cannot use iTunes at all!

I downloaded the most recent iTunes software (upgrading from version 10) and now I cannot use iTunes at all! Upon opening iTunes, it says that "an unknown error occurred (-45054)". If i click "ok" itunes immediately closes itself...what do I do??

Hello KarmaThaPilot,
I located an article that may help you with the issue you're experiencing. Take a look under that heading titled "Using the Repair Privileges Utility."
Troubleshooting permissions issues in Mac OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2963
For Mac OS X 10.2 or later, open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities/). Select your Mac OS X startup volume in the column on the left of the Disk Utility window, then click the First Aid tab. Click the Repair Disk Permissions button.
Before performing maintenance such as repairing disk permissions, it's always best to perform a backup of critical files.

If I upgrade from 3.6, can I still use Skype?

I have had reminders to upgrade from 3.6 but understand from a recent article in Computeractive magazine that I cannot continue to use Skype with later upgrades. Will you please let me have your comments. I am using Vista 32 system.
Thank you

My opinion is to get more RAM. I found 512MB to be too little for Firefox '''3''', and I rarely have multiple windows open and rarely more that 10 tabs open.
Try Firefox Portable first, and then if the Portable works to your satisfaction think about about upgrading to 8.0. Firefox Portable won't mess with your current Firefox installation, it installs completely separate. <br />

As far as Firefox 3.6 goes, it will probably be around for another 5 months or so as a currently supported version, as far as security updates are concerned.

Using physical standby to upgrade to the next major release

Hi
Can one use a physical standby to upgrade from 9i to 10g or from 10g to 11g ?
We cannot use logical standby due to datatype problems
Thanks
Orna

You can use logical standby to perform a rolling upgrade, if you are above 10.1.0.3 - see http://www.oracle.com/technology/deploy/availability/pdf/MAA_WP_10gR2_RollingUpgradeBestPractices.pdf

Safari doesn't upgrade from 5.1, even though I use fully updated Mac OSX version 10.6.8

How do I get Safari to upgrade beyond version 5.1.10? I have fully updated software, and my OS is OS X, 10.6.8.
My old Safari version is no longer being supported by some websites. Searching the internet, I saw that I should re-install the OS X. I did that, and didn't work. Please help.

You need to upgrade the OS past 10.6.8 to get a newer Safari version. Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Mavericks. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data before upgrading. Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

I just downloaded bootcamp 3.1 to upgrade from 3.0. I am using Snow Leopard. is there anything special I have to do run the upgrade version when I open Boot Camp Assistant?? Thank you

Hi everyone
I am running Snow Leopard on my early 2006 MBP. I just downloaded Boot Camp 3.1 so I can upgrade 3.0. Is there anything special I need to do to "install" 3.1 so that when I run Boot Camp Assistant it uses 3.1 instead of 3.0? Thank You.

The Boot Camp 3.1 drivers you downloaded have to be installed in Windows after running Boot Camp Assistant. That update does not apply to Boot Camp Assistant, and as you are using Mac OS X 10.6.8, you are using the most recent Boot Camp Assistant version for Snow Leopard.
Once you have installed Windows with Boot Camp, insert the Snow Leopard DVD in Windows and install the Boot Camp 3.0 drivers. Then, install the Boot Camp 3.1 drivers

Upgrading from iOS 4.3.3. without using iOS 6

I have an iPad 2 which is still using iOS 4.3.3 as I didn't get round to updating it. Now I need to upgrade to iOS 5 or above to enable me to use a digital AV adapter for HDMI. Is there anyway I can upgrade to iOS 5 or above without updating to iOS 6?

No. You will have to update to iOS 6 now. That's the way it works.

I cannot Upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7 using Windows Anytime Upgrade

A little while ago I bought an activation and serial key so I could upgrade my Windows Vista to Windows 7
My PC is FULLY compatible and I checked 3 times with Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor ,
I launched Windows Anytime Upgrade and there was no option to upgrade only to go to the website and comapre different versions of Vista
I was a bit fustrated and I have been looking for an answer all afternoon
If someone could help me that would be amazing
System Details
HP Pavillion Slimline
Windows Vista ( 32- Bit )
Dual Core Proccessor
2.5Ghz

What is needed to upgade to Windows 7 is an install disk. You can borrow one or download the one needed, depending on the key purchased. Windows Anytime Upgrade will only upgrade in the product line that is installed. Which version of Windows 7 did you purchase? And do you need/what 32bit or 64bit?

Upgrading from kernel 2.4.32 using pacman

i had to install arch with kernel version 2.4 because of the NIC driver that would not compile under 2.6. now i want to update the system but when i tried pacman -Syu i got a whole lot of ERROR: kernel too old messages. after that kernel would panic no matter what i tried passing during boot. i gave up and re-installed the system with kernel 2.4. what is the best way to upgrade the system and is there a way to avoid all of the previous problems? is it better to first upgrade kernel by itself and than all other packages or the other way around? thanks...
p.s. if i compiled the NIC driver using kernel 2.4 will it still work after upgrading to 2.6?

Pierre wrote:Imho the current Arch version does not run with kernels lower than 2.6.16 (or was it 2.6.9, I am not sure). Anyway: If you want to use kernel24 you have to downgrade glibc and compile (everything) yourself.
i am not sure i understand... is there no way to upgrade from 2.4 to 2.6 using pacman?

Upgrade from 10.39 to 10.4 problem on a Power Mac G4

I'm trying to upgrade from 10.39 to 10.4 using the Tiger install DVD .
- When I d insert the dvd, it immediatle pops it back out..
- I tried transfering the dvd data on to a usb drive. When I did this, I cilicked on the "install icon" get the installation screen, click "restart" and the machine restarts in 10.39 with no installation screen.
- With the USB drive, from system prefs > startup disk, I am given the option of 10.4, but when I select it and hit restart, nothing happens.
Any help is appreciated!!

Hi rickHutch80;
Your G4 is not capable of booting from a USB drive hence when the reboot starts it con only find the disk with Panther on it as the only bootable device. You need to use either an internal DVD drive or an external Firewire DVD drive so that the G4 can boot from it.

Post Upgrade from 4.x to 5.0 to 5.1 questions

All, I have upgraded my first sensor 4.x to 5.0 to 5.1. Here is my process
1) Upgraded from 4.x to 5.0 using FTP with this file IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1c-S149.rpm.pkg
2) Installed License Key
3) Using VMS, I went from 5.0 to 5.1 using file IPS-K9-min-5.1-1.zip
4) Now, my switchport is down, down monitoring.
Am I missing a patch?
Did I upgrade properly?
Why is it down down monitoring and not up down monitoring on the switchport that my sensing port connects to in the switch.

You may be hitting a common issue with 5.1.1 where the senorApp process becomes unresponsive. You should not stay at 5.1.1 - you need to upgrade to 5.1.3. If you are seeing this issue then:
1) disable the sniffing interfaces
2) reboot the sensor
3) upgrade to 5.1.3
4) enable the sniffing interfaces
