What is the process of upgrading 10g Express to Standard/Ent Edition?

We would like to start rolling out Oracle 10g Express to our clients when the production release is available. Our issue is that 50% of our client will stay within the limits of 10g Express (4G of user data etc), 30% of our clients will start on Express and after a few years they will need to upgrade from Oracle 10g Express to Oracle Standard Edition One. The remaining 20% will start with Oracle Standard Edition One or Enterprise Edition.
For our 30% which may need to upgrade from 10g Express to 10g Standard Edition One, once they encounter the limitations of 10g Express, how do we upgrade? Is it a re-install or just a magic key that needs to be entered to remove the 10g Express restrictions?
Cheers,
Tim.

(Not answering on behalf of Oracle ...)
I suspect the upgrade will consist of two parts: 1) get the new Oracle software in place - the one that does not have the limits as well as includes all the new and neat capabilites; and 2) apply the dictionary changes to the database that will allow advanced features and functions to work (for example: RMAN backup and recovery, job scheduler, centralized admin)
One question that I'd have .... how much down time would be tolerated. I'd expect a 4GB export/import to take, say, under 25 minutes. That would let you install the new software, create a new database to hold the stuff, export, import and go.
An upgrade, with testing, I'd expect to take about one 8-hour day. (About 25 minutes for the actual upgrade, 7-1/2 hours to test, verify that the packages for Standard/Enterprise are installed, verify that the Enterprise Manager & RMAN are operational, etc.) ;-0

  • What is the process to upgrade at full retail, switch SIM cards, and keep old plan with unlimited data feature

    I'm on a really old plan...America's Choice Family Share 500, Free N&W, with 2 lines, and each line has the unlimited data feature on the line.
    Neither line has a texting package.
    I currently have a Droid Bionic (large SIM card) & want to get a Droid Turbo (small SIM card).  It is literally cheaper for me to pay full retail for a phone (actually 2 phones) than switch to a "More Everything" plan because my plan is so old.  Across the two lines, we probably only use 3-5 GB/mo, so we aren't 'heavy' data users, but we aren't using 1-2GB/mo either.
    I went into a VZW Corporate store, and they said I should be able to keep my plan with unlimited data if I pay full retail, but the sales person said their system has been knocking off unlimited data for other customers, even for something as small as a SIM card change.
    I tried upgrading on verizonwireless.com, and the system tried to kick me out of my America's Choice Family Share 500 plan.
    What is the process to get a new phone, pay ~$600 for it, get the new SIM card assigned to the account, and keep my calling plan with unlimited data?
    (I also have the option to turn on & off Mobile Hot-Spot for $30/mo at will...but probably only have it active for 1 week a year, if that)
    Thanks!

    Just log into your my verizon and order a phone at the full retail price. When you add the phone to the cart you choose 2 yr price, edge or full and then hit add. You will have to choose a plan but that plan does not go into effect since you are buying a phone out of contract, it is just part of the process. You then will not lose the data

  • I have Dreamweaver CS6.  Is it possible to upgrade to Dreamweaver CC?  If so, are there any fees involved? And what is the process?

    I have Dreamweaver CS6.  Is it possible to upgrade to Dreamweaver CC?  If so, are there any fees involved? And what is the process?

    Unfortunately, CS6 is the last version Adobe made available for purchase on perpetual license.  So there are no upgrades available except to join the Creative Cloud and pay monthly.
    As a Creative Suite user, you qualify for a substantial discount for the first year -- $29.95/month for Full Plan which affords access to all the software and other services.

  • What is the process for connecting ethernet.  Have ethernet cable connected to stereo received for internet radio and Blue Ray. However Network System Preferences indicates ethernet not connected and has red dot to left.  Note Airport wireless is working.

    What is the process for connecting airport extreme ethernet?  I have ethernet cables connected to stereo receiver for internet radio and another to blue ray player.  The system preference network indicates "ethernet not connected" with red dot to left of this message.  The airport wireless works and has green dot to left of it.  The stereo receiver and blue ray player do not respond and give message not connect to internet.  Thank you.  /  cfpirate 

    It worked for me finally. I took out the DNS numbers in airport admin utility, and restarted the airport express. I do not remember putting the DNS numbers in, I wonder from where the airport express got those numbers.
    After restarting, it worked.
    Thanks!

    My MacBook Air has reverted to iphoto 7 and seems resistant to upgrade. I am on OS X 10.7.5, and in the process of upgrading to Maverick. Any ideas?

    Nope
    for sure iphoto did not "revert" to a previous version - if the version has changed it is due to something you did and you need to share that
    What exactly is your problem?  To upgrade to Mavericks backup yoru system and download and install OS X 10.9.x Mavericks - then purchase iphtoo '11 Version 9.5.x from the app store and install it - tehn download and run the library upgrader (it is downloaded to the utilities folder in your aplicatiosn folder) and then launch iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x to finish the upgrade

  • Hard Drive low on disk space - What is the process of moving B1 Server App?

    The partition the SAP B1 Server App is installed on is running low on disk space. I would like to move the APP from the D:\ to a new, faster, hard disk we have installed.
    What is the process for uninstalling and reinstalling the server app to a new partition.
    Is there any documentation that outlines this process?
    What are concerns I should have for doing this?
    Any and all info is appreciated.
    John Sefton

    Fine. Then Backup the Client Database from SQL Server Management Studio.
    Backup the B1_SHR folder from the SAP Server.
    Now uninstall SAP B1 from the Server.
    Restart the Server and do a Fresh Installation of SAP B1.
    Apply for New License Key. Install the License Key after you get from SAP portal.
    Upgrade to the Patch similar to that of the Backuped Client DB Patch.
    Now create a new company in SAP B1.
    Restore the DB which was backed up.
    NOTE: I suggest these operations to be done by experienced guys. If you are a SBO Customer, then I recommend you to ask your Implementation Partner to do this exercise.

  • My mac os x is currently 10.5.8. What is the cost to upgrade to the most current?

    My macbook pro os x is currently running 10.5.8. What is the cost to upgrade to the most current?

    Assuming you have the upgrade system requirements you would first purchase a Snow Leopard DVD and upgrade to Snow Leopard. Then you update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 to gain access to the App Store where you would then purchase and download Lion. Costs are $29.00 for Snow Leopard and $30.00 for Lion.
    Lion System Requirements
    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
    Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    See the following as well:
    How to Install OS X Updates Successfully
    A. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions:
    Boot from your current OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. Then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally. 
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    B. Make a Bootable Backup Using Restore Option of Disk Utility:
    Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
    C. Important: Please read before installing:
    If you have a FireWire hard drive connected, disconnect it before installing the update unless you will boot from this drive and install the update on it. Reconnect it and turn it back on after installation is complete and you've restarted.
    You may experience unexpected results if you have installed third-party system software modifications, or if you have modified the operating system through other means. (This does not apply to normal application software installation.)
    The installation process should not be interrupted. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation, use the standalone installer (see below) from Apple Downloads to update.  While the installation is in progress do not use the computer.
    D. To upgrade:
    Purchase the Snow Leopard Retail DVD.
    Boot From The OS X Installer Disc:
    Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
    Restart the computer.
    Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
    Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
    Wait for installer to finish loading.
    E. If updating:
    Download and install update(s) 
    Use Software Update, or
    Download standalone updater(s).
    Once you then purchase and download Lion from the App Store consider this before you actually install Lion:
    Make Your Own Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that  you can use without having to re-download Lion.

  • HT201250 I use Time Machine to back up my entire computer with my external hard drive. I am getting a brand new iMac this month and was wondering what is the process of using this back up to restore my new computer exactly how my old computer was?

    I use Time Machine to back up my entire computer with my external hard drive. I am getting a brand new iMac this month and was wondering what is the process of using this back up to restore my new computer exactly how my old computer was? I want to make sure I will still have various important files on my new computer, like my songs in iTunes, my photos in iPhoto, etc, etc. Thanks so much in advance!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    When you turn on the new iMac for the first time, Setup Assistant will ask you to restore a backup, so connect the external disk and follow steps to restore all your files to your new iMac. Your new Mac will have the same settings and programs as your old computer.
    In other cases, I would recommend to restore the whole backup without using Migration Assistant or Setup Assistant, but a Late 2012 iMac uses a special OS X build, so the OS X version that you're using on your old Mac won't work on the new one.

    A 15" mid-2009 MBP RAM specifications are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
    As has been pointed out, OWC is an excellent source for Mac compatible RAM.  Crucial is another first rate source for Mac RAM.  RAM from either vendor will work just as well as any purchased from Apple with the bonus of being less expensive and having a lifetime guarantee.

    Hi,
    I was talking in a general sense not on a query level.
    If your taling about migration in that level meaning as a part of larger upgradation (in your case 3.x to 7) there may be many places where you need to do this kind of activities.
    Fr eg migration into new data flow, Migration of Web templates from BW 3.x to Netweaver 2004s, etc
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • How to stop and start only the process of Oracle Application Express?

    I'd like to know how to stop the process of Oracle Application Express on my server installed oracle express package.
    After installed Oracle Express edition, not only oracle database server processes but also Oracle Application Express, such as http server, is started automatically...
    I hope to stop and start Application Express on demand but is this feature enabled?

    Oracle Apex is an API, if that helps you understand / visualize. You do not start Apex process nor stop it.
    When an Apex session starts it starts calling the API.
    You can however start / stop the listener. It may be OHS, ApexListener and the J2EE container running it, OC4J or any other "server" that you are using.
    The built-in EPG is something like an API again, you cannot start / stop it but you can disable/enable it with DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT API.

  • What's the process of uploading videos to youtube?

    This might sound like a silly question... but what is the process of uploading videos to youtube?
    Does the video get processed into youtube friendly format and then get uploaded to youtube?
    So therefore, no re-processing is required on youtube? And therefore the video appears intantly after upload
    This has been what I have experienced
    Or does the video still need to be processed by youtube as well?
    If the above is true... then I think the best way to do the work is to process the video on my laptop and output in best format
    And ONLY then upload to youtube
    From experience, I've found this takes time for the video to be processed and then published on youtube
    Problem: I've had about 40 videos, all of about 1 minute 30 seconds uploading from FCPX
    I left overnight. he queue is STILL processing
    I'd rather have youtube process and use up their CPU power!
    Any feedback to the above would be great
    Thanks
    Omar

    I think the best way to do the work is to process the video on my laptop and output in best format
    And ONLY then upload to youtube
    Encode before you upload use the share function or better with Compressor (export master file anad let Compressor encode with youtube preset and upload that file via Safari or the Uploader
    Problem: I've had about 40 videos, all of about 1 minute 30 seconds uploading from FCPX
    I left overnight. he queue is STILL processing
    I'd rather have youtube process and use up their CPU power!
    It is almost an hour it seems rather slow but not unusual and they were encoded before upload ?
