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

  • Is their roadmap for the next major release of Netweaver stack?

    In the ERP area, I found this link that mentions a roadmap for mySAP ERP2005 and beyond.
    Is there a corresponding "beyond NW04s" roadmap? Or is the next major release of Netweaver targeted for 2010 as is the next major mySAP ERP release mentioned in the above mentioned roadmap?
    <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/5bd723c2-0d01-0010-97a5-cb14fe7f2810">mySAP ERP2005 roadmap and beyond</a>

    Tobi,  I can't go too far into it, but I can assure you that the next major release of Netweaver will not be in 2010.  The idea is that you will be able to upgrade your Netweaver layer without upgrading the core(ECC).  That means that you can stay current with technology while your business stays the same.  So there will be Netweaver releases every so often before 2010.

  • JSE 6 needed for the next major version of the Mac SAPgui

    Apple has a developers' preview version JSE 6, but they don't yet support it. Hence, the Mac version of the Java SAPgui doesn't yet use JSE 6, even though the Java SAPgui on other platforms does use JSE 6. It is likely that by the time of SAP's next major release of the Java SAPgui, Apple will support JSE 6 and the Mac SAPgui will require it.
    Currently Apple's implementation of JSE 6 requires a 64-bit Intel processor running Leopard. If this remains true in Apple's final release of JSE 6, then the next major release of the Mac SAPgui won't run on any MacOS X prior to Leopard and won't run on PowerPC or 32-bit Intel based Macs even with Leopard.
    I'm told that Sun has both 32-bit and 64-bit JSE 6 JVMs for Windows, for Linux, and for Solaris.
    My organization (MIT) has submitted a bug report to Apple about this. It is possible that Apple might pay more attention if a number of their customers made a joint request.
    If your organization would be interested in joining such a joint request to Apple to support JSE 6 on (at least) all supported Leopard platforms, please let me know.
    Thanks.

    P.S. If you work for Apple and you think you might be able to help with this, please contact me.
    /David

    Here is the current situation with respect to SAP's Mac JavaGui and
    Apple's Java SE 6, as I understand it:
    a. The SAPgui for Java 7.20 is planned for the fourth quarter of
       calendar 2008.
    b. SAP's support for the SAPgui for Java 7.10 is planned to end on
       31-Dec-2008.
    c. The Mac SAPgui for Java 7.20 will be able to use Java SE 6.
    d. SAP has not yet decided whether the Mac SAPgui for Java 7.20 will
       also be able to use an earlier version of Java (i.e. J2SE 5.0).
    e. Apple's Java SE 6 is only available for Mac OS X 10.5.2 and later
       on 64-bit Intel-based Macs (not PowerPC-based or 32-bit Intel-based
       Macs). Apple has not mentioned any plans to support Java SE 6 on
       any PowerPC-based or 32-bit Intel-based Macs or any Macs running
       Tiger, although there is a possibility that Apple might announce
       support for some of those platforms at their upcoming Worldwide
       Developers Conference (June 9-13, 2008, in San Francisco).
    f. Sun has both 32-bit and 64-bit JSE 6 JVMs for Windows, for Linux,
       and for Solaris.
    g. The last PowerPC-based Macs (Power Mac G5) were sold in August 2006
       and the last 32-bit Intel-based Macs (Mac mini) were sold in August
       2007.
    h. Assuming that the Mac SAPgui for Java 7.20 will require Java SE 6
       and Apple doesn't extend their support of Java SE 6 to other
       platforms, then as of 1-Jan-2009, you won't be able to run an
       SAP-supported version of the Mac SAPgui for Java on PowerPc Macs
       bought as recently as August 2006 or 32-bit Intel Macs bought as
       recently as August 2007 or on any Macintosh running Tiger.

  • I would like to upgrade to the next step, but because I have many problems with the version 10.4.11, I'm worried that upgrading would create more problems.

    Due to a misunderstanding with [email protected] in September of 2010, many of my applications and important files were put into the trash during a cleaning.  The trash hadn't been deleted, so a CleanApp rep told me to drag my important files to a folder on my desktop.  They were unable to help me with anymore advice with the exception that if I followed the pathway of the application, I could manually restore it to its proper location. 
    This was asking a lot of me because I didn't have the experience or knowledge of undertaking such a massive restoration.  However, I did the best I could.  What had been put in the trash was not just a few files -- there were hundreds of files or apps that I discovered in the trash.  As I said, this was a misunderstanding.  I was left feeling devastated at what had happened. 
    Since then, my iMac Intel Core Duo has been running on its last legs.  I'm surprised I can even get to my email.  As far as using the software that I bought with my iMac, I can't.  I just do the basics.
    What I have been wanting to do is to upgrade to the next level.  However, I worry that if I upgrade a crippled OS X 10.4.11 Tiger, I would be creating more problems than what I already have.  Do you agree that an upgrade would make matters worse? 

    It won't necessarily make it worse, but may not make it better.  I am not familiar with the utility you usedm though anything that cleans or maintains your Mac should be avoided unless you know what you are doing and what it does.  Probably re-installing software from the official sources (download or CDs) is the best way to ensure missing parts are all replaced.
    If this is a core duo and not a core 2 duo then the highest you can go is Snow Leopard 10.6 Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).

  • When i upgrade to the next version of firefox, all of the web sites i had pinned to firefox on the Windows 7 task bar disappear

    I accept the offer to upgrade to the next version of Firefox

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • When will the next ESR release be available?

    Hi - I am writing some GUI based code and plan to release towards the end of the year. I imagine that a new FF ESR will be available by then. When will the new version of FF ESR be available so I can try and ensure that we test our GUIs using it? Thanks in advance!
    F

    hello Dubrovsky, the next major ESR version will be firefox 31, which is going to be released on july 22nd. automatic updates for ESR users on the current 24-brach to 31 will be starting mid-october.
    so you should test the code against firefox 31, which is currently in the nightly stadium: nightly.mozilla.org

  • Apple pls look here: Some "quick wins" for the next firmware release

    Hi!
    First of all: Thank you, Apple, for Update 1.0.3! The most annoying bugs are fixed and the click wheel works better (but in my opinion the quick wheel of the iPod nano works still even better).
    Please allow me to suggest a few "quick wins" you could easily (in my opinion) include in the next firmware release:
    + Please add an option to turn off that "screensaver" or to change the time until it turns on
    The "screensaver" wouldn't be that bad when:
    + It would display "now playing" information in a large font (better readable than the normal "now playing" when the background light is off
    + The screensaver clock would display 24h format, when configured
    Best regards, Jens

    It's a waste of time posting this here because it's a user to user forum and no-one from Apple (except maybe the forum moderators) will see it.
    Please use this link.

  • 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

  • I have OS X 10.5.8. How do I upgrade to the next OS X?

    I have OS X 10.5.8. I want to upgrade / update to the next OS X. Firstly, which OS X is the latest that I can use for a MacBook Pro 5,1?

    Your macbook supports 10.8.x which is the newest Mac OS.  You need to contact apple buy a disc for 10.6 and install that then do software updates to 10.6.8 and then go on the mac app store and buy mountain lion (10.8).

    Hi,
    He bought the iMac two years after mine.
    Would his Mac still be under warranty? It sounds like it is about only a year old and so may be still eligible for phone support, though that may depend on having nearby access to an Apple Tech support.
    He could get a replacement disk sent to him as well. The cost,  I don't know.
    Your disk would probably work, but you don't need to burn one; just use yours. If you are in two locations, then it would be better for Apple to mail him a replacement disk for his particular Mac.

    Thanks

    Is Aperture installed on the new machine yet? If so  run Software Update you should get the latest version of Aperture for your system.
    If not,  install  from the original media you have for it and then run Software update.
    BTW what is the version of OS X that you are running?
