Upgrading Oracle Linux with Oracle Unbreakable Linux Kernel

Hi all.
I'd like to upgrade an Oracle Linux OS with unbreakable linux kernel.
Current version is :
[oracle@union ~]$ uname -r
2.6.18-164.el5PAE
Which steps needs to be performed?.
I know i must be at 2.6.32. Also Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel is available for x86-64 servers.
Q: How do i know if my distro is x86 or x86-64?
Regards, Luis ...!

Hi Dude... what's a pae kernel?
[oracle@union ART0]$ uname -a

There is lm although....
So i guess the installation is for 32bit.
Do i need to download a 64bit distro?.

  • Oracle Text with Oracle TimesTen

    Hi!
    I'm trying to use Oracle Text with Oracle TimesTen In-Memory. In this customer, we are using Oracle Text to index the names of the company clients. There are about 13 million names to index. We're trying to speed up even more the search using Oracle TimesTen.
    Does anybody as any experience using simultanely this two technologies?
    Thanks in advance
    Tiago Soares

    TimesTen doesn't support the CONTEXT indextype or CONTAINS clause (or other domain indexes/operators), so you can't create Oracle Text indexes in it.

  • Oracle VM with Oracle E-business suite Release 12.1.1

    Hi
    We are migrating our Oracle E-business suite from IBM Power 5 AIX 6.1. to OVM Intel (x86_64) bit, we have tested the migration in our test environment. We want to know how good or bad is OVM with oracle e-business suite in production environment, and if anybody is working on production environment with the similar configuration in Production environment then please share your experience with us
    Thank you
    Regards
    Shahrukh Yasin

    Hi Sharukh,
    Virtualization of course the trend in modern era, and I personally advice you to have a thorough testing on performance and specifically simulate workloads and check the behavior. I don't personally go on to support Virtualization on Production environment as it incurs additional cost like CPU usage, memory usage borrowed by other environment being virtualized. And as it does not directly work with the hardware. May be some will be against this point, but I see as if it incurs additional resources. Being said this, I am not completely against Virtualizationas long as it is not a heavy 24/7 environment. I would go on to support the ideology, saying it's best to choose the right technology to right environment.

  • Oracle Portal with Oracle Web Cache

    How can I configure Oracle Portal (or Web Cache) to work together?
    I have installed and started both of them. Now, Web Cache works fine with standard html pages (for example Apache docs) but after trying to reach portal the url is redirected to standard port - on which Portal runs (Web Cache works on 1100 and Portal on 7778).
    So it seems that portal pages are not cached.
    Web Cache:
    Application Web Servers:
    hpwin 7778 100 30 5 / 10
    Where can I find any information about that?
    best regards
    KJ

    Portal PM, I thought you said that this solution would not work. Everyone I have heard so far has said that you cannot configure webcache to work with Portal documents. Does this work or does it not?
    Read the messages below from the bottom up.
    It's not possible to do that today.
    In 9.0.2 (the next release) we will be using WebCache configured out of the box so you won;t need to, however, till then you cannot use webcache with Portal 3.0.x
    Thanks

    please try using this configuration on http.conf
    Port <webcache port>
    Listen <apache listen port>
    ServerName <webcache hostname>
    you must running ssodatan script again.
    Note :
    this config only make portal work together with webcache.

  • Oracle workflow  with oracle stardard edition 10g

    I have read this document id on metalink about the difference between different edition of oracle database 10:
    271886.1
    but there is anything about oracle workflow.
    Can I use Oracle workflow with oracle stardard edition 10g?

    I would suggest to get in touch with your Oracle vendor to find out more details on this one. Looks like an additional license.

  • Oracle Timesten with oracle apex

    I use Oracle 11gr2 and apex 4.2.4 how can i use oracle timesten with oracle apex?
    I want to use timesten to improve  performance on report by adding two tables to oracle timsten.

    As far as I am aware, recent (11g onwards) releases of Oracle Heterogenous services do not work with TimesTen as they now require an OBC 3.x driver and the TimesTen driver is currently 2.0. Even if they did work, this would not be a useful solution. It might allow Apex to access TimesTen after a fashion (though that is far from certain) but the performance would be very poor due to all the network hops and software layers between the application and TimesTen.
    If you put one or two tables in TimesTen then one problem from an Apex perspective is that it is now dealing with two databases; the TimesTen cache containing two tables and the oracle database containing all the other tables. Is Apex designed to cope with this? Does it have the concept of data located in multiple databases where one of them is not the Oracle database? Also, do you need transactions or queries (joins) that span the TimesTen tables and the tables in Oracle DB? If so then this also  will not work as that is not possible today.
    I have to say that as far as Apex goes I think this is likely a non-starter. However, if you do try it and have any success then please do post the results here as we'd be interested to hear about it.

The associations are set up at time of installation so that if a user right clicks a claimed file, the OS should offer to send the document to (possibly a group of programs which include) our application.
    I am not sure what you mean by "program to be able to add" shortcuts. Do you mean the application might need to do this after first being installed?
    What exactly are the menu items the program tries to add? e.g. 'open', 'print', 'add to archive', 'crash & burn'...

  • How to integrate oracle webcenter with oracle webcenter Sites?

    How to integrate oracle webcenter with oracle webcenter Sites?

    This very much depends on what you mean by the first "oracle webcenter" and what kind of integration you are looking for.
    Oracle WebCenter contains three main product lines:
    - Oracle WebCenter Portal,
    - Oracle WebCenter Sites,
    - and Oracle WebCenter Content.
    Since the newest version 11.1.1.8 it is possible to store Sites' assets in WebCenter Content.
    WebCenter Portal, where the name WebCenter originated from, is another front-end technology, so it would rather co-exist next to Sites than integrate with them. See this thread WebCenter Portal and WebCenter Sites Integration for more details.

  • Compatibility about oracle 10g release1 and unbreakable Linux

    Hi there,
    My OS is "Oracle Unbreakable Linux" which is from ORACLE, when I tried to install oracle 10g release 1 , it got error as below:
    [oracle@O10gR1 Disk1]$ ./runInstaller
    Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
    Checking installer requirements...
    Checking operating system version: must be redhat-2.1, redhat-3, SuSE-9, SuSE-8 or UnitedLinux-1.0
    Failed <<<<
    Can somebody tell me if unbreakable linux is compatible to oracle 10g release 1 ?
    Thanks

    Oracle 10gR1 is certified with OEL, you might have using old downloaded installer, that's why you getting error. Download new installer from otn.oracle.com.
    OR
    you just need to execute runInstaller with -ignoreSysPrereqs switch:
    ./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
    OR
    Update oraparam.ini in STAGE_AREA/Disk1/install

  • Error Installing ERP2005 on Red Hat 4es Linux with Oracle

    Normally I only install SAP for customers on Unix boxes or WIndows, but I was asked for a customer to do an installation on Red Hat 4es 64bit. It will be a Sandbox system for the customer. ERP2005 with Oracle.
    But after some issues on shared objects when I wasn't able to start the sapinst, cause there was no JRE installed, but has been installed after this (version 1.4.2.13 for linux). I now run into the following issue when ./sapinst is running and me trying to start the ./startInstGui.sh I get the following :
    java.lang.RuntimeException: invocation target exception: /usr/java/j2re1.4.2_13/lib/i386/libawt.so: libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    both files are there, JAVA_HOME had been set, java had also been set as path, but when I do a file on the files it gives me:
    [root@su49tas1 lib64]# file libXp.so.6.2
    libXp.so.6.2: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), stripped
    [root@su49tas1 i386]# file libawt.so
    libawt.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped
    looking at this there might be a conflict on version, but the libXp.so comes from the RH install cd and the libawt.so comes from the jre1.4.2.13-rpm.bin file downloaded from the java sun website.
    strange thing is that I cannot find a 64bit version so that might bring down my thoughts on version conflict.
    Hopefully someone had had this same issue also and had solved it, but also other input which might help me solve this is appreciated.
    cause this is turning my head for a day and night
    cheers
