Upgrading from 11.1.1.2 to 11.1.2.1 question(s)

Hey guys, I have a question about upgrading Essbase. I'm pretty new to Essbase and most of my experience with it has to do with loading data and MAXL.
my environment is setup as follows:
App box 1 - Essbase 11.1.1.2 - AIX
App box 2 - Essbase 11.1.1.2 - AIX
Web box 1 - Websphere, APS, EAS, SS, Dodeca
Web box 2 - Websphere, APS, Dodeca
F5 Load balancer in front of the web tier
I believe they have APS and Dodeca clustered. App box 1 and 2 have different Essbase applications running on each box.
My first thought was to upgrade Essbase and migrate the cubes for both applications at once. Further down the road that could be 5-6 applications and it doesn't look so easy.
So my question is, is it possible to upgrade only one of the application boxes and web tier to 11.1.2.1?
Possible setup might look like this:
my environment is setup as follows:
App box 1 - Essbase 11.1.1.2 - AIX
App box 2 - Essbase 11.1.2.1 - AIX
Web box 1 - Websphere, APS, EAS, SS, Dodeca
Web box 2 - Websphere, APS, Dodeca, SS 11.1.2.1, EAS 11.1.2.1, APS too?
F5 Load balancer in front of the web tier
Would you upgrade all the web tier and just have App box 1 on an older version of Essbase?
If anyone has any suggestions on sites/material to catch up on it would be appreciated (I'm working my way through epm_install_11121, epm_install_start_here and epm_install_troubleshooting right now).
Thanks,
Phil Matre

John, thanks for taking the time to read over my issue. We got a hold of an Oracle engineer and this is what he had to say "Shared Services must be at the same level across all applications! So net is you can’t mix the two. Also the upgrade to 11.1.2.1 is NOT an in place upgrade, must be a new environment."
So the WebLogic part was another question bouncing around in my head. I guess I didn't want to believe I would have to use it. In the end it will probably save us some dollars on two WebSphere licences. The boss men will be happy about that. I hope all upgrades are this exciting!
Thanks,
Phil

  • Upgrading from TCS 2.0 to TCS v. 2.5 - Know What You're Getting!!!

    I'm not the type to normally write in forums but I just went through 2 days of customer service and technical support hell and thought I would share the experience with the sole motivation being to spare fellow TCS users the aggravation and make you aware of a possible disconnect between sales and technical support - know what you`re getting!!
    Yesterday I purchased the upgrade from TCS 2.0 to TCS 2.5 from the Adobe online store as an electronic download. After receiving a confirmation email I logged into my Adobe account and noted that the download page contained 2 serial numbers, one for Photoshop CS5, one for Captivate 5 and then a zip folder for UPDATES only to Framemaker and Robohelp and also 2 language packs for text-to-speech for Captivate 5. Obviously I was missing links to Framemaker, Robohelp and Acrobat.
    The goal of my purchase was to procure an additional licence in order to install TCS v 2.5 on 2 additional computers so, I had a sick feeling that I may have misunderstood what was offered in the upgrade; I then had the following conversation with Adobe`s Chat Live Now (excerpted from transcript):
    Me: Hi. I just  purchased the upgrade from TCS 2.0 to TCS 2.5. My expectation was that  this contained all programs within the suite yet on my downloads the  only programs that are listed are Photoshop CS5 and Captivate 5. Does  this upgrade package not include the ability to install Framemaker,  Robohelp and Acrobat. I purchased on the assumption that the upgrade  would constitute an additional licence for these products as well. Was I  wrong?
    Perkins: ...TCS includes all programs, you need to select those programs while installing.
    Me: Okay, I'm just  downloading it now so I will confirm that it does, in fact, include all  of the programs. So just to clarify, my original understanding was  correct and the upgrade provides me with 2 additional licences for TCS?
    Perkins: Yes. You can install 1 copy of the software on 2 computers with same Operating System.
    Okay - fair enough, I then re-visited the Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2.5 web page under Upgrade--Reasons to Upgrade where it states:
    ``Work with full new versions of Adobe professional tools for technical  communicators and help authors, including Adobe® FrameMaker® 9, Adobe  RoboHelp® 8, Adobe® Captivate® 5, Adobe Acrobat® 9 Pro Extended, and  Adobe Photoshop® CS5 software``.
    Now to me, FULL means full versions. I subsequently entered customer service hell and spent an hour and a half on the phone being transferred through 5 different people, none of whom were familiar with the contents of the Technical Communication Suite. It took forever jsut to get them to understand that I weas upgrading from TCS version 2.0 and NOT trying to upgrade from Photoshop CS4 and Captivate 4 directly. Eventually my question as to whether I was entitled to an additional licence for Framemaker, Robohelp and Acrobat Pro Extended was elevated to Tier 2 and I was told I would be contacted by Adobe. Today I received a voicemail and email stating that I should install Framemaker, Robohelp and Acrobat Pro Extended from my original TCS v 2.0 installer. I subsequently did so (successfully) and then installed Captivate 5 without issue.
    The next challenge arose with Photshop CS5 - the serial number, according to the installer, was invalid. Back to customer support who referred me to technical support - turns out the download link on my Adobe account download page was for a Chinese language-only version of Photoshop Extended which doesn`t even come with TCS 2.5! So, another 90 minutes on the phone throughout which I keep seeking clarification, does TCS 2.5 grant me an additional licence for Framemaker 9, Robohelp 8 and Acrobat 9 Pro Extended...
    Technical Service states they can send me a physical disc with installers for Photoshop CS 5 and Captivate 5 and then CONFIRMED that I am NOT entitled to any additional licences for Framemaker, Robohelp or Acrobat, I am ONLY entitled to the 2 installs under the original TCS version 2 licence. This of course runs completely contrary to the literature on the website and my conversation with Live Chat Now. In disgust, I have submitted a refund request.
    Just for kicks I decided to again try to clarify with Live Chat Now what products that I, as a customer, receive a licence for by purchasing the upgrade to TCS v 2.5 and have pasted the transcript of that chat as follows;
    Me: Can you please  confirm for me whether upgrading from the Adobe Technical Communication  Suite version 2.0 to version 2.5 entitles me to 1 additional licence for ALL of the applications that constitute the Technical Communication  Suite (i.e. Robohelp, Acrobat, Framemaker, Captivate, Photoshop and  Presenter) OR does it merely entitle me to 1 licence to install  Photoshop CS5 and Captivate 5 in conjunction with my pre-existing TCS  2.0 installation?
    Morph: Give me a minute, I&#146;m reading it.
    Me: sure
    Morph: When you place the order for upgrade, you will get new products.
    Me: I understand that I will get Photoshop CS5 and Captivate 5 BUT do I also get Framemaker, Acrobat and Robohelp?
    Morph: Adpbe eLearning  Suite  2 includes: Adobe Captivate 5, Flash Professional CS5,  Dreamweaver CS5, Photoshop CS5 Extended, Acrobat 9 Pro, Adobe Presenter 7  (Available only on Windows platform), Soundbooth CS5.
    Morph: No.
    Morph: Only Acrobat is Included.
    Me: I am not talking about the e-Learning Suite, I am referring to the Technical Communication Suite
    Morph: Oh okay, got you, first tell me, using which product you will be upgrading this from?
    Me: TCS 2.0
    Morph: Okay.
    Morph: Yes, if you do this  upgrade you will get Adobe FrameMaker 9, RoboHelp 8, Adobe Captivate 5,  Photoshop CS5, Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, and Adobe Presenter 7
    Me: so this will  entitle me to 1 additional licence for all of these applications, over  and above the licence I already own for the TCS version 2?
    Morph: Correct, however,  you may also be installing the software (Upgrade version) directly  without uninstalling the previous version of the software.
    Me: So just to  clarify, if I purchase the upgrade and decide that I want to install on a  completely different machine than the two computers that already have  TCS version 2.0 installed (as entitled by my licence) then I will be  able to, in effect, install the TCS 2.5 onto two completely different  computers (as per the Adobe licence) so that, at the end of the day, I  can actually have FOUR computers with TCS installed by virtue of the 2  licences that I should have - one from TCS version 2.0 and 1 licence  from TCS version 2.5É
    Morph: Purchasing the  &#147;upgrade&#148; version product is nothing but a &#147;full&#148; version, but if you do  not have the serial key for older version you can&#146;t Install the  upgrade, but for full version you do no need previous version serial  number.
    Morph: Correct.
    Morph: You can simply purchase your upgrade and verify that you have the qualifying older product during the installation process.
    Morph: If it's installed on  your computer, the Adobe installer will either find it or prompt you to  help it find the software for verification.
    Morph: If it's not installed, you will be prompted to enter the qualifying serial number for the older version.
    Me: Is the download file one individual installer or an installer for each application
    Morph: It is one Indiviidual Installer.
    Morph: When you download it will automatically Install every program in the Suite one-by-one.
    Me: Okay, the reason I  have been asking is that yesterday I made this purchase yet my download  page had links only to Photoshop (a Chinese language only version of  Photoshop Extended which does not come with the Suite) and Captivate.  There was no link whatsoever for the other applications. I went through  customer service and technical support and no one, and I mean no one,  could answer the questions I`ve asked you. According to customer support  and the serialization team, the upgrade to v. 2.5 DOES NOT include  Framemaker, Robohelp and Acrobat. As a consumer I have absolutely no  idea what is right and what is wrong. How am I supposed to make an  informed purchase...
    Morph: did you check on the link and confirmed that it does not Include the upgrade to version 2.5?
    Me: Sorry - not clear what you mean, my receipt from the Adobe store was for TCS v 2.5
    Morph: Like I said  upgrade for the Technical communicate suite Includes Adobe FrameMaker 9,  RoboHelp 8, Adobe Captivate 5, Photoshop CS5, Acrobat 9 Pro Extended,  and Adobe Presenter 7, and you should be getting all as a single  download link, seems like you are not able to make it with the link to  Install Individual products altogether, so you need to contact our  Customer Service at 800-833-6687. for the
    Morph: precise Info.
    Me: I went through  that route yesterday and today and they told me that the upgrade DOES  NOT include the other applications. As well, I noticed that the download  file size for the upgrade is 1 half the size of the full version -  obviously something is missing
    Me: The information you are telling me is the precise opposite of what they told me. How do I, as a consumer, get the proper answer
    Morph: upgrade do Includes the product I have mentioned above.
    Me: I know you`re  trying to assist but I`m flummoxed - my case was escalated to Tier 2 and  they told me it doesn`t include the other applications
    Morph: up to some  extent i can help being a sales team member, ant only customer people  generate the links and have access to customer account to check what  really went wrong.
    Me: Is it possible to  have a senior sales rep contact me - this matter of a `simple` upgrade  has consumed a ridiculous amount of time. As far as my issue - Adobe  tells me nothing was wrong and that the upgrade is only a licence for  Photoshop and Captivate
    Morph: Okay,Just a minute.
    Morph: You can contact our Sales Team on 1-800-585-0774.
    So, at the end of the day, sales tells me that upgrading to v 2.5 grants me an additional licence for ALL applications in the suite whereas Adobe`s own technical support has told me this is not true. Again I ask, how does a consumer make an informed choice...
    I`ve been buying Adobe software for both Mac and PC since Creative Suite 2 came out and this has absolutely been the most frustrating experience I have ever had. I get great use out of the Techncial Communication Suite and thought it would be nice to have an additional licence but at the end of the day I have decided it certainly was not worth the hassle - particularly when Adobe itself can`t figure out what I am entitled to!!
    I am a fan of Adobe`s software but honestly, is business that good that you can treat your customers this way????

    Hi. I suspect that may indeed be the case. If so, that's fine but nowhere is it clearly articulated what a user gains by purchasing the upgrade (and I am specifically referring to an upgrade from TCS version 2 to v 2.5) and certainly sales (as evidenced by my chat transcripts where I believe I asked quite specific questions) are advising customers that you will, in fact, gain an additional licence to ALL components of the TCS by upgrading.
    If it had been clearly articulated on the Adobe TCS 2.5 website that an upgrade from TCS version 2 only entitles users to install Photoshop CS5 and Captivate 5 in conjunction with the existing installation of the other components of TCS 2 - or - better yet, stated clearly that the upgrade from version 2 to 2.5 does not entitle the end-user to an additional licence for Acrobat Pro Extended, Framemaker, Robohelp and Presenter 7 then that would allow me, as a consumer, to make an informed decision whether to make the purchase. Since that is not the case, and Adobe's sales representatives are clearly advising customers otherwise, I felt compelled to post this so others don't waste their time as I did trying to sort it out. At one point I was advised that I should use my existing TCS version 2 installer to install Acrobat etc but received contradictory answers as to whether I was entitled to an additional licence for these products. At no time during my first hour and forty-five minute conversation, my second ninety minute conversation nor my third, and last, twenty minute conversation was anyone able to clearly articulate what you have stated - and - that still leaves the fact that the text on Adobe's website is misleading.
    BTW - why I received a download link from Adobe for a Chinese-language-only version of Photoshop CS5 Extended is still a mystery
    At the end of the day, I think the TCS (while not perfect) is a very useful tool and I will, in all probability, upgrade to the full version of TCS 3 which will, no doubt, constitute a full licence for all components of the suite. I am not attributing malicious intent to the Adobe employees, but I am saying that they themselves seem confused about what is included in the upgrade and provided contradictory statements. If Adobe employees can't provide a straight, cut-to-the-chase answer about what seems a straightforward question then that certainly creates unnecessary confusion for the customer.

  • Installing upgrading from 8.1.7 to 9.2.0

    Hi we are upgrading from 8.1.7 to 9.2.0. Some questions :
    1-what is oraInst.loc used for ?
    2-what should I modify in this file before beginning to Install and upgrade ?
    3-in OUI , in file locations window I'm prompted to give Oracle Home name . What is Oracle home name ( I know that $ORACLE_HOME is a path where Oracle DB server would be installed, but Oracle Home name ? I don't understand. And what should I give as Oracle Home Name and for what it would be necessary ?
    Many thanks before.

    1-what is oraInst.loc used for ?A file which contains some string definition like inventory_loc=/home/dba/oraInventory
    2-what should I modify in this file before beginning to Install and upgrade ?Nothing, install the new oracle version.
    3-in OUI , in file locations window I'm prompted to give Oracle Home name .
    What is Oracle home name An identifier of a Oracle Home.
    That's the name which appear in the programs list bar under windows (start>all programs>Oracle - OracleHomeName). That's too the beginning of the oracle windows services like OracleHomeNameTNSListener etc...
    The home name can be up to 16 alphanumeric characters. The only special character allowed in the home name is the underscore.

  • Finger print reader not working 'post' Windows 10 upgrade from windows 7

    Ok I have succumbed to upgrading to Windows 10 as I did to Windows 8, perhaps this time I won't 'rollback' but already things don't look good .  As a part of the upgrade the Windows 10 the installer spat about the HP Protect Tools Security Manager and asked me to uninstall in order to proceed with the upgrade. I started to get a little concerned from this point on that I would lose my fingerprint reader as a result of going to Win 10 and low and behold that’s happened. It was only after following several threads online that I originally got the fingerprint reader working on windows 7.  I went in and out of the BIOS resetting this and that but in the end despite having all the HP drivers for the readers (latest ones) the only thing that ‘fixed’ my fingerprint reader was the installation of the HP Protect Tools Security Software. So the question is where’s the Windows 10 version of the HP Protect Tools Security Software or the ‘fix’ is there one?? Hate to think an operating system is blocking such a great HP laptop feature!

    I want to upgrade from windows7 to  windows10 (probook 4350s) I have the same question about compatible version, which I hope HP or somebody answer soon and help us...I also cant uninstall my protect tools as upgrade needs me to.I want to know is it possible for finger scanner to work in windows10 after uninstalling HPPTM. thanks,Nazanin Mirzabeigi

  • Is it really possible to upgrade from a Treo 650 to a Treo 750?

    I am not a very happy customer at the moment, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from my old Palm Tungsten to a Zire, then to a Cingular Treo 650, combining three devices into one. I have since discovered that the Treo 650 seems to have a faulty transmission mode, as I can rarely be clearly understood by whomever I call. Am on the second (or third, I have lost track) and continue to have the same problem. I get five bars of reception but can't be understood on the other end. A bit of a problem when one is trying to call 911. Am constantly told I am "breaking up". The repair shop says it "Can't duplicate the problem". OK, then I do not want to give up all the info I have stored in the fool thing, and the 750 seems to have a different system, so I thought I would try that. All the stuff I could find seemed to indicate it wouldn't be a problem to upgrade. When the 750 arrived, I tried to install the software from the CD on my Windows XP computer. No dice. Setup encounters an error and closes. Can't even look at the files, because setup tries to run any time I access the CD. From any drive.  Gave it to my girlfiend to check on her computer, and the CD seemed to run fine. Other CDs work just fine on my computer. Must be some kind of conflict, but what? Tried calling the AT&T number that suggested they could help with setup, and was first connected to the business center, they routed me to the laptop center, who routed me to the network center, who said they would have to bring in the Palm customer service and connected me to a Mac guy that dumped me back to a menu that took me to someone for whom English is a second language with whom I was trying to communicate over a very poor satellite connection. They made no sense anyway. telling me first that I couldn't have two desktops running (wrong, my girlfriend has my old Zire and the CD worked fine) and then insisting that the serial number on my device had to start with a P, when it clearly does not have any alpha characters in it. Gave up on that route of assistance. Managed to get the new ActiveSync installed from my girlfriends computer over the network. Great. Now let's get my 650 synced with Outlook (which I have not used at home) and see if we can move on. Nope. First I have to update Outlook 2000 from the old Win98 to my current XP. Find the old CD, and square that away. OK, now sync to Outlook. Nope. The sync program gives an error, saying it will only sync with Outlook 98, 2000, and XP(2002). Good grief. I have Outlook 2000, and the software apparently does not recognize it. If the Palm doesn't work, there is no reason for me to keep this phone, and I am very close to returning it and abandoning the Palm entirely when I upgrade to something that works, although I dread re-entering all that information.

    Thanks for the feedback. Today I installed an Enterprise version of Office 2007 I purchased a while back, but had not yet installed. Microsoft presented a few challenges, but they were quickly resolved. I then downloaded the appropriate conduit from Palm, and synced the 650 with the handheld overwriting the computer. Then used Active Destop to sync the 750. Satisfied I had moved as much info as possible, I called AT&T and had them move the phone number to the new Treo.
    Bonus! When the guy at AT&T called me on the new phone to verify it, he said it sounded better than my landline.
    Sorry for the streaming paragraph. When it is late I tend to write like I think.

  • Can't print from IE 8 after upgrading from Vista to Windows 7

    My laptop (HP Elitebook 8530w) uses two HP printers: Color LaserJet CP3525x (at work) and Deskjet 6940 (at home). Both printers are accessed across a local network.
    I recently upgraded from Vista Enterprise to Windows 7 Enterprise.
    Everything still prints fine (from Word, Adobe Reader, Windows Photo Viewer, etc.), except for IE 8! When I try to print a web page from IE, it prints only the page header, and otherwise the sheet is empty. This symptom occurs on both printers. (And of course this worked fine before the upgrade.)
    Any ideas? Thanks for any help.

  • Fields in read-only mode for BP transaction in upgrade from 4.72 to ECC6.0

    Hello,
    This is regarding the query for BP transaction in upgrade from 4.72 to ECC 6.0.
    While creating BP / Changing BP system is disabling the fields in compnay code & sales area option. There is a SAP not provided 907860; and specified that the proplem is because of the delta customizing.
    All the customization settings are as per the note. And the Synchronization Control is also activated. But still the fields are disabled only.
    I have checked the field settings also in Cross-Application-Components & Logistic-Genral.
    But these are not working for compnay code & sales area data.
    please let me know if anyone has faced this type of problem / found any solution on this.
    Best Regards,
    Shubhada

    SAP IMG  -> Cross Application Components -> Master Data Synchronization &#61664; Synchronization Control -> Synchronization Control -> Activate Synchronization options
    This setting allows you to activate synchronization of BP with R/3. Not maintaining the values may result in certain fields being read-only in BP.
    Suggested Values:
    Source Object: BP | Target Object: CUSTOMER | Active Indicator : X
    Source Object: BP | Target Object: VENDOR | Active Indicator : X
    Source Object: CUSTOMER | Target Object: BP | Active Indicator : X
    Source Object: VENDOR | Target Object: BP | Active Indicator : X

  • Upgrading from Mac OS 8.6 to 9.1 on iMac G3 333

    Hello all,
    I recently inherited (or my mother did rather) an old iMac G3 333 mhz machine. It has 96 megs of RAM currently, and is running OS 8.6. I want to upgrade the machine to at least 9.1 so I purchased a Mac OS 9.1 software install/restore disc set on eBay.
    When I load the disc into the drive it says it's a 9.1 G4 software disc. I tried booting from the disc and it doesn't seem to work, question mark on the folder appears, then goes to a smiley face, then goes to something about an unrecoverable trap error or something to that effect.
    If I put in the restore CD in while 8.6 is up and running and try to restore/install it says it will not let me with the current configuration, but if I put in the software disc (I got two discs, a software disc and a restore disc) it allows me to attempt the install, but says that I need to install the latest firmware which is supposed to be in the "CD Extras" folder, but as far as I can see, is not there. These are NOT CD-R copies but ORIGINAL restore/software discs, I believe they came from a G4 machine.
    If anyone could point me in the right direction or give me some advice on how to get this working it'd be much appreciated. I tried burning the firmware upgrade (the 1.2 firmware for the 333 that is recommended on the apple site) on my brother's mac using toast, but it doesn't seem like this old G3 will read CD-R's. Additionally, the internet browsing software is so old that I can't even do something like email it to myself because Yahoo mail doesn't support my browser!
    Please help! Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    Hi, Curmudgeon. The G4-specific discs you bought won't work on a G3. You'll need to obtain a retail (not model-specific) OS 9.0.4, 9.1 or 9.2.1 installer CD if you want to upgrade beyond OS 8.6.
    But let me ask: do you have a pressing reason to upgrade the OS on this old iMac? Do you have some hardware or software that requires OS 9? OS 8.6 is a fine operating system for an early iMac or any other Mac of that vintage, and OS 9 doesn't offer much that isn't available in 8.6. If you can make do with what's already installed, my recommendation is that you do so, saving a little money and hassle in the bargain.
    As for web browsers, I don't think you're going to find OS 9's selection of available browsers much larger than that for OS 8.6. All the browsers that will run in either OS are long in the tooth now, and won't properly handle a lot of modern web sites.

  • Error in Access VBA Application when upgrading from Acrobat 8.0 to 9.0

    Hello.
    The company that I work for recently upgraded from Adobe Acrobat 8.0 to 9.0 and I`m experiencing some problems with my Access 2003 VBA Application that extracts text from PDF-files and insert it into a table. I have tried adding references to Adobe 9.0 Type Library, but still no luck. Anyone having any ideas for a workaround? See attatched image for error-message. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

  • Slow table creation after upgrade from 10.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.1 using DBUA

    I've recently completed a database upgrade from 10.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.1 using the DBUA.
    I've since encountered a slowdown when running a script which drops and recreates a series of ~250 tables. The script normally runs in around 19 seconds. After the upgrade, the script requires ~2 minutes to run.
    By chance has anyone encountered something similar?
    The problem may be related to the behavior of an "after CREATE on schema" trigger which grants select privileges to a role through the use of a dbms_job call; between 10g and the database that was upgraded from 10G to 11g. Currently researching this angle.
    I will be using the following table creation DDL for this abbreviated test case:
    create table ALLIANCE  (
       ALLIANCEID           NUMBER(10)                      not null,
       NAME                 VARCHAR2(40)                    not null,
       CREATION_DATE        DATE,
       constraint PK_ALLIANCE primary key (ALLIANCEID)
               using index
           tablespace LIVE_INDEX
    tablespace LIVE_DATA;When calling the above DDL, an "after CREATE on schema" trigger is fired which schedules a job to immediately run to grant select privilege to a role for the table which was just created:
    create or replace
    trigger select_grant
    after CREATE on schema
    declare
        l_str varchar2(255);
        l_job number;
    begin
        if ( ora_dict_obj_type = 'TABLE' ) then
            l_str := 'execute immediate "grant select on ' ||
                                         ora_dict_obj_name ||
                                        ' to select_role";';
            dbms_job.submit( l_job, replace(l_str,'"','''') );
        end if;
    end;
    {code}
    Below I've included data on two separate test runs.  The first is on the upgraded database and includes optimizer parameters and an abbreviated TKPROF.  I've also, included the offending sys generate SQL which is not issued when the same test is run on a 10g environment that has been set up with a similar test case.  The 10g test run's TKPROF is also included below.
    The version of the database is 11.2.0.1.
    These are the parameters relevant to the optimizer for the test run on the upgraded 11g SID:

    So while this certainly isn't the most elegant of solutions, and most assuredly isn't in the realm of supported by Oracle...
    I've used the DBMS_IJOB.DROP_USER_JOBS('username'); package to remove the 194558 orphaned job entries from the job$ table. Don't ask, I've no clue how they all got there; but I've prepared some evil looks to unleash upon certain developers tomorrow morning.
    Not being able to reorganize the JOB$ table to free the now wasted ~67MB of space I've opted to create a new index on the JOB$ table to sidestep the full table scan.
    CREATE INDEX SYS.JOB_F1_THIS_NEXT ON SYS.JOB$ (FIELD1, THIS_DATE, NEXT_DATE) TABLESPACE SYSTEM;The next option would be to try to find a way to grant the select privilege to the role without using the aforementioned "after CREATE on schema" trigger and dbms_job call. This method was adopted to cover situations in which a developer manually added a table directly to the database rather than using the provided scripts to recreate their test environment.
    I assume that the following quote from the 11gR2 documentation is mistaken, and there is no such beast as "create or replace table" in 11g:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10592/statements_9003.htm#i2061306
    "Dropping a table invalidates dependent objects and removes object privileges on the table. If you want to re-create the table, then you must regrant object privileges on the table, re-create the indexes, integrity constraints, and triggers for the table, and respecify its storage parameters. Truncating and replacing have none of these effects. Therefore, removing rows with the TRUNCATE statement or replacing the table with a *CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE* statement can be more efficient than dropping and re-creating a table."
