Urgent: Can MS and Oracle providers coexist?

I need to make a quick decision, so would appreciate any definitive input on whether the Microsoft and Oracle .Net Data Providers can co-exist peacefully on the same workstations or the same server. I need to have different apps/services on the same computer access different instances of Oracle 8i, one using MS' provider, and one using Oracle's provider. We would use the newest 9i Client.
Can anyone say whether they coexist peacefully?

Thanks for the information, though the comment about the lack of Microsoft support for the 9i Client appears to be out of date. I just received confirmation from our Microsoft technical sales support rep and a priority support services analyst that Microsoft DOES officially support it's Managed .Net Provider for Oracle with the 9i client. The support will be limited to supported features, but all standard support services will be provided (e.g. diagnosis assistance and hot fixes). I have also received confirmation from both Microsoft (via priority support) and Oracle (via MetaLink) that the two company's providers can coexist on the same computer.
Interestingly, the most comprehensive support for Oracle features seems to be in a third-party provider - OraDirect from Core Labs. This product would eliminate my need to use two providers to support existing and new applications. Unfortunately, my employer is too conservative to take a chance on a third party driver.

  • Can delegate and strategy patterns coexist ?

    Say I have an interface for persistence call that PersistenceInterface.
    Now for MySQL I created MySQLPersistenceClass and for DB2 I created one more class DB2PersistenceClass.
    Now to proceed with my busines slogic I have a class BusinessLogicHandler class.
    BusinessLogicHandler has a class member say persistenceObject of type PersistenceInterface. Now certainly I'm switching the persistence based on the actual implementation so I say Im using STRATEGY pattern here
    But for create operation from business layer i.e. BusinessLogicHandler.create directly invokes persistenceObject.create in this case can I say that Im using DELEGATE pattern also
    So can I say the set of classes and interface = DELEGATE + STRATEGY ?
    Thanks a lot

    Can someone please answer this ?yes
    can I say the set of classes and interface = DELEGATE + STRATEGY ?yes
    Can delegate and strategy patterns coexist ?yes
    I'd say it would be odd to use Strategy not as a delegate.

  • Can BW and R/3 Coexist?

    Hi,
    I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum to ask this question.
    Can BW and SAP R/3 both reside on the same server/host but on seperate DB (Oracle)?  We are looking to migrate to new hardware but was not sure if both those applications can coexist.  Does SAP have a recommendation or stance on this? A note or faq would also be great.
    Thanks for your help.
    Newbie

    Hi Rick,
    It is possible to have the configuration you mention.
    It is not feasible to use a MCOD solution with you R/3 and BW system under Oracle. The oracle tuning for OLAP is different to the OLTP tuning.
    From an SAP perspective, I think it is your choice. My main concern is if you can isolate CPUs for each instance. Can BW consume all the CPUs and leave none for R/3 and vice versa. Most people implement partition of servers using their vendors solution for isolating memory and CPUs to avoid such issues and simplify administration(e.g. splitting a SUN server into domains).
    I do not believe you will find a SAP note on this as it a hardware solution.
    I hope this helps,
    Mike.

  • Can Oracle9i and Oracle 9iAS co-exist on same machine.

    I was wondering if Oracle9i and Oracle 9iAS can co-exist on same machine. I like to play around with 9iAS and I already have 9i database up and running on this one box.
    Thanks.

    What issue are you having? You can install both versions of Forms into separate homes. You then have two versions of your Forms application, in different directories. Then your FORMS60_PATH points to your Forms 6i forms, and your FORMS90_PATH points to your Oracle9i Forms forms. There is no conflict.

  • Can Oracle 10g and Oracle 9i coexist and run together in one machine

    Dear Friends,
    I have installed Oracle 10g on my machine which already had Oracle 9i - 9.1.2.0 Release. Now the problem is that when i try to create a service name it gives me this error- ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor. To overcome this what i have done is that i have stopped the Oracle 9i listner and started the Oracle 10g listner, it is working after this but Oracle 9i service stpooed. Does this mean that Oracle 9i & 10g listner can't run together ? Or one has to stop the listner for one version to start another. The port number is same 1521 for both the listner. When i tried to change the port number still the same error comes as described above.
    Kindly enlighten me,
    Thanks & Regards,
    Vinay

    if you want to configure both listener (oracle 9i and 10g listener)
    then u configure
    listener9i on 1521 port
    and other
    listener10g is on 1522 port
    also make changes in tnsnames.ora file
    as
    ora9i =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.16.1)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = ora9i)
    ora10g =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.16.1 )(PORT = 1522))
    (CONNECT_DATA =

  • Can 32bit and 64bit clients coexist?

    Hello folks,
    I have a Windows Server 2003 64bit machine running Websphere 6.0 Express (32bit). Additionally it's running a custom 64bit application. Both apps need to connect to separate 10g databases. Can the 32bit and 64bit Oracle client installs coexist on this machine?
    Thanks for any advice!
    -Sangamon

    To clarify, Websphere needs a 32bit JDBC driver, our custom application needs a 64bit ODBC driver. I've got Websphere working, but I'm having trouble getting the ODBC driver to work. I'm wondering if there's a problem with having 2 clients installed.

  • URGENT! Java and Oracle

    I'm currently developing a Java application that connects to an oracle database and retrieves various information. The application connects fine to the database and I can SELECT information and all the other basic stuff.
    The problem I have is this, I have to call on server side scripts, .SQL files, to generate reports. From there I will somehow(?!) get the information that is contained in these reports but to start with I love to know how I can call these files.
    If I log into sqlplus I can run the file as normal:
    SQL>@file_name.sql
    The above runs the file and the report is generated OK.
    But if I try to use Java code such as ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery() the program spits the dummy and tells me that I have supplied an "invalid SQL statement".
    Bearing in mind I can use statement.executeQuery() to successfully perform SELECT's, UPDATE's etc. I simply swap the select information for "@file_name.sql" to immitate what happens at the sqlplus command prompt to execute.
    All a total failure! If anyone knows would they please please help?!
    Thanks in advance,
    Tony

    Hi jschell,
    Many thanks for your reply by the way. Not to appear
    completely thick and stupid but I aint a master of
    Java by any means, is it possible you could suggest
    how I would "make a system call that runs SQL*plus
    and executes the script". Is there anywhere in
    particular I would look to attain the source code to
    achieve this? I have spent evening after evening
    trying to find source or a pointer on how to achieve
    this, I am beginning to get very frustrated!
    Well first you need to figure out where you are going to run this.
    It is either going to run on the client machine or it is going to run on the server. Both solutions are unlikely.
    Your other attempt, with Runtime.exec() will only work on the client machine.
    The server solution that I suggested requires PL/SQL, not java, to run the command. It will only work on the server. As for the packages I suggest you dig into your references (I would start with the O'Reilly books "Oracle PL/SQL Programming" and "Advanced Oracle PL/SQL Programming").

  • How can RoleMapper and Authorization providers be called from application code?

    "isUserInRole" is available in EJB and Web-application contexts. This goes to the
    RoleMapping provider.
    How can I call the Authorization providers or make a FULL authorization check
    (rolemapper + authorization + adjudication) "manually" from my application (JSP,
    EJB) code?
    I know it's possible with the Authorization-class in P13N package when using the
    Portal but isn't that portal-specific functionality? I need to be able to do this
    with a non-portal Weblogic Server.

    This is not currently possible with WLS. There is no public api to define
    your own resources
    or manually call isAccessAllowed on container resources.Will there be a public API for this in the future and how soon, if so?

  • Can Declarative and Classic provisioning coexist?

    How do I use both classic and declarative provisioning together? If I just throw a EntryPointNotImplementedException exception from the IMVSynchronization.Provision method for the MAs that I want to use Sync Rule  to provision? Or both of them will
    be triggered?

    Hello,
    both of the attributes flows will processed every time.
    Just implement sync rules and classic ma rules like you need.
    sync rules will be processed first, after that classic rules are evaluated, so Keep in mind classic ma rules can overwrite sync rules if you implement both for the same attribute.

  • Siebel and Oracle Ebiz sharing the same DB

    Can Siebel and Oracle Ebusiness suite link up with the same database?
    Any pointers to this, i would someone would have tried this out with consolidating multiple Oracle applications.
    Any documentation available on this should be of great help.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Ebusiness suite has very specific requirements for parameters, database versions, tablespace naming, patch level, and cloning. I have not installed Siebel, but I suspect it would have it's own requirements which will be different from Ebus.
    I think it is very likely you will run into conflicts between the requirements of the two applications. Maybe not today, but definitely during the next patch or upgrade.
    For vendor applications it is better to keep them in their own databases to avoid requirements conflicts.
    You could open an SR with Oracle Support to ask if they will support a database with both applications installed.

  • URGENT!!! Can ATA and SCSI coexist?

    hello fellas!
    my case is similar of the post "Can SCSI and ATA coexist?', but with some differences:
    I own a G4 Dual 500–MHz PowerPC G4, 40Gb ATA + 80GB ATA. (http://support.apple.com/specs/powermac/PowerMac_G4_GigabitEthernet.html)
    now I've installed a PCI SCSI card to connect tree more SCSI HDs: two barracuda 18Gb and one quantum 36Gb)
    my G4 only reads SCSI drives when I disconnect ATA tape from motherbard...
    when I plug ATA to motherboard again, neither SCSI mount on desktop, nor system profile shows it as a device, even when I start Hard Drive Update 1.app...
    I've read all manuals from apple, jumped all SCSI HDs, but for some reason, it doesn't work at all!
    so, the question, again, is Can ATA and SCSI coexist?
    does anyone knows how to config it??
    thanks in advance!

    answering:
    - as my primary language is portuguese, i didn't understand when you said 'booting off the OS X disk'. do you mean eject it in the disk utility?
    - I have so many drives because e sold another G4 that used those drives atached with the pci card and I simply want to use it, because I'm short on cash... those drives are installed with OS 9.2 (the ATA ones are running OS 10.4.8)
    when you said one ATA and 2 SCSI, you mean that if I simply disconnect the slave ATA and one of the SCSI it may works?
    thanks again!

  • Can Struts and JSF coexist?

    I have a Struts based application and now I want to build an additional module on top of that using pure JSF. My question is, can Struts and JSF co-exist in the same application? If yes, what are the cons of that approach? What are the places I need to tweak in the configuration files so that they work together?
    thanks,

    Hi,
    Yes they can coexist. Actually that's the approach recommended by Craig McClanahan. I have developed a full enterprise application (80% completed) which uses JSF in front and Struts in the back using Struts-Faces integration library (developed by Apache).
    So far I haven't faced any major issues with this approach. However, I haven't try using Struts validator on JSF objects.
    Read the article below on how to integrate JSF w/ Struts.

  • Oracle Forms and Report Server and MS IIS Coexists in one Server

    Dear All,

    Default settings for forms session timeout is 15 Minutes. But heartbeat parameter (default 2 minutes) doesn't allow AS to close idle sessions. So define heartbeat=20 in your formsweb.cfg file.
    As far as reports are concerned set engineResponseTimeout="15" in your report server configuration file. This setting will not allow any report to remain in the queue for more than 15 minutes.
