Where should one install Oracle Database and the Grid Infrastructure in order to adhere to OFA?

I've downloaded the two zipped install folders for Oracle Database, and the two zipped install folders for the Grid Infrastructure. The book I'm following for installation says to use one directory for the database, and one directory for the Grid Infrastructure, but it doesn't explain where they should be located in OFA. Presumably they should both end up somewhere in the same Oracle Base (since everything Oracle related on a single file system should go in the same base, according to my understanding), but it isn't clear where they should be installed in relation to each other. For example, is the Grid Infrastructure a separate product that gets its own Oracle Home? Can anyone shed light on this process?
Also, does it matter to which location the zipped files are unzipped? For example, are any of these files used after the installation process, or does OFA only care about post-installation location?

I think this links may be helpful -- ORACLE-BASE - Oracle Database 11g Release 2 RAC On Oracle Linux 5.8 Using VirtualBox, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/hunter-rac11gr2-iscsi-088677.html.
OFA -- Optimal Flexible Architecture standard. The standard is a set of configuration guidelines created to ensure well organized Oracle installations that are easier to maintain (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32002/app_ofa.htm#LADBI440).
It relates to location of the grid and dbms files location. Actually you should specify base directory and follow installer. System will be installed in correct directories.
It does not matter where you will unzip your distributives. You may delete them after installation to free space.

Installing Oracle Database and SQL Developer

Hi, I was looking for some help/advice in regards to installing an Oracle Database and SQL Developer onto a Windows 7 32bit machine. I have been asked to create a database to store data that I create through reports in Excel so I am required to create a local database but not sure how to go about doing this. Also not sure if I install the Express Edition or Oracle Database 11g R2. If somebody could please advise on how I can get this started or even any links/tutorials that would guide me in how to get this installed with a localhost.
Thanks in advanc.

Thanks guys, I have managed to install Oracle 11gR2 and I have setup a database using the dbca tool and I can connect to my new database. One thing that I have noticed is that when i look into my tables in sql developer i see loads of different tables i.e. def$_, logmnr_, etc and I am not sure why this is as I expected an empty tablespace.
Thanks btw for all your help.
One of the key principles of relational databases is that they use their own facilities to manage themselves. That means the database management system uses the database to manage data about the database using exactly the same facilities (tablespaces, tables, user accounts, procedures, etc) that an application uses to keep data for the application. See "data dictionary" So there is no such thing as a completely empty database.
As said by others, you do NOT want to be creating your own tables under oracle's schemas (users) or in oracle's own tablespaces (esp. SYSTEM and SYSAUX). Create your own user account/schema. Create your own tablespace. Make that tablespace the default for that user.

Where should we install Oracle Workflow Server?

Hi,
We are using Oracle Warehouse Builder 10G R1.
We installed Runtime Repository in oracle databae 10.2
We installed Oracle Workflow server 2.6.3.5 in separate oracle datbase 10.2.
What I mean to say is, we installed Runtime Repository in one database instance and Oracle Workflow manager in separate datbase instance.
Here my concern is whether both Runtime Repository and Wokflow server should be installed based on the same datbase? Or can we install on differnt datbases?
will it be fine?
Any suggestions are welcome?
Thank you,
Regards,
Gowtham Sen.

We run our workflow server and owb repository on a different machine than our DW instance. The main benefit being that we can do maintenance independently. Our OWF implementation is pretty benign as resources are concerned.
Our development server contains two instances for UAT and DEV, OWB repositories, and a single OWF implementation using the DEV instance. It runs perfectly fine, and if budget concerns were an issue I would have ran OWF, OWB and DW DB on the same instance in production.
However we do have an issue with the single OWF implementation on our DEV/UAT server. When we deploy the process flows in UAT it invalidates the process flows in DEV. Easy workaround though: Redeploy flows in DEV ( invalidates UAT). I haven't found a permanent solution around that.

Runinstaller (oracle database) hangs the zone and global zone

We have recently installed a Solaris 10 (Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 s10s_u10wos_17b SPARC) on the SPARC T4 and create two zones out of it.
We tried to install oracle database on the zone by running the installer (tried xclock and it works very well so display is not a problem).
Not only the zone was hang the entire Global zone SPARC server was hang and the only way to bring the system back is to power on and off it.

Please can you confirm, is it a standalone DB that you are trying to install..
If yes, What is the DB version?
The error message is simply unable to obtain the xfont. This link might help you:

Problem in installing Oracle database 10.2.01 and SOA suite


Hi ALL,
I have the following two problems.
I get a windows error saying "oui.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvinience" whenever i try to install Oracle database 10.2.01.(problem 1)
However, i used the Oracle database from other system and installed SOA suite on my system. It was working fine until recently when it failed to start. I had only one option i.e. to deninstall the SOA suite.(i used the oracle deinstaller to deinstall the SOA suite) . When i tried to reinstall it again, i got a warning saying "DHCP configuration was detected on this host. The installer also detected that the local host name and the network hostname differ". When i ignored this warning and continued the installation, the set up falied to detect the Oracle database which i had used earlier(problem 2). Do I need to clear any logs or do i have any way to sort out these two problems. Please help. ?:|



i am trying to install the SOA SUite against locahost. I have installed the loop back adapter but facing the same problems that i used to face earlier.

How can I install Oracle Database 10g for Solaries (SPARC) from the console

Dear Forum Members,
In my office, I have to installed Oracle Database 10g for Solaries (SPARC). But I have to do it without DISPLAY Monitor.Is it possible install it by remote login to this server using response file (silent mode) or something like that?
If yes. Then How?
If anyone have the exact solution, then I need your feedback. I shall wait for your reply.
Thanks

How to install Oracle software remotely?
Remote Software Installation Steps: (For Solaris only)
If you want to install Oracle Software remotely, you should perform the following steps. These steps are applicable only if your source and target machine are running Unix.
For example, you can install Oracle Software from your home from Washington, DC to a target source in California.
1. Pick your source server or machine for remote installation.
2. Check that your CD is in your source CD-ROM drive.
3. On the target machine, find your target machine name with the output of the /usr/bin/hostname
4. On the source machine, login as a user.
5. On the source machine, enable client access: % /usr/openwin/bin/xhost + target-machine-name
6. Become root user by typing: su (dont use -)
7. Check that Volume Manger is running. # ps ef |grep vold (if you see an entry that contains /usr/sbin/vold, Volume Manager is running. Then skip to Step 10.
8. If not then do the following: # mkdir p /cdrom/your-cd-file-name
9. # mount F hsfs r cdrom-device /cdrom/your-cd-file-name
10. Add the following line to your /etc/dfs/dfstab file: # share F nfs o ro /cdrom/your-cd-file-name
11. Verify whether your source machine is an NFS server: # ps ef | grep nfsd
12. If you see an entry that contains /use/lib/nfs/nfsd a 16, then nfsd is running and skip to Step 16.
13. If nfsd is running, then type: # /usr/sbin/shareall
14. If nfsd is not running, then start nfsd by typing: # /etc/init.d/nfs.server start
15. Verify whether your source machine is an NFS server again by typing: # ps ef | grep nfsd
16. Make sure your source machine is exporting your product directory by typing: # /usr/sbin/dfshares
17. Now, log in to the target machine by type: # rlogin target-machine-name l user (not root)
18. Then log in as the root user by typing: # su
19. Go to the source machine by typing: # cd /net/source-machine/cdrom/your-cd-file-name ,then Skip to 24.
20. If you cannot change to that directory in Step 19 and you do not have an auto-mounter on your network, then create amount point by typing the following commands.
21. # mkdir /remote_products
22. # /usr/sbin/mount F nfs r source-machine:/cdrom/your-cd-file-name /remote_products
23. # cd /remote_products
24. Redirect the target machine display to source machine by typing: # DISPLAY=source-machine:0; export DISPLAY (if you use a Bourne or Korn shell).
25. Start the Web Start Installer by typing: # ./installer (or whatever the installer name program is).

I have just purchased a macbook pro. I downloaded two sd cards, one via lightroom 4 and the other via iPhoto. I can't find the latter card when I try to import via LR4. In fact i can't find it at all unless i open iPhoto. where is it?

Good Evening, I have just purchased a Macbook Pro, and have downloaded two SD cards of a trip to USA and Canada last September. One via Lightrooom 4 and the other via iPhoto. I tried to import the SD card via iPhoto into Lightroom 4 but could not find it. I tried to find this "folder"? via other means with no success. however when I open iPhoto, there it is, so it must be on the Hard Drive somwhere??? I am new to Apple having decided to jump ship from Windows. Would be grateful for any help.

iPhoto is a - like Lightroom - Photo Manager. It's a database. Like any db to get data out you have to export it.
File -> Export
and in this case set the Kind to Original.
iPhoto is a $15 app, LR is somewhat more expensive. As they both want to manage the photos there's no good usage scenario where you use both. Pick one horse and ride, essentially.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

Using Coherence and Oracle Database as the CacheStore

We are working on implementing a solution using Coherence and Oracle Database as the CacheStore. We initially implemented the Cache as a distributed-scheme which in turn uses the backing-map-scheme. We are trying to introduce transaction management and I used a scheme-ref in a transactional-scheme to point to an already existing distributed-scheme. However when I bring up the server, my custom coherence-cache-config.xml file is not recognized and Coherence comes up with the default setting. Given below is the snippet of my configuration file.
1) I would like to understand why the below configuration doesn’t work and am I doing it the right way? If not, what is the correct way of doing it?
2) There are a multiple transaction management options given in the documentation. Which are the ones that will work with a distributed-scheme and read-write-backing-map-scheme?
3) If transactional-schemes cannot work with distributed-scheme, what is the best way to have a distributed cache with a oracle database as a cache store?
<caching-scheme-mapping>
<cache-mapping>
<cache-name>id<cache-name>
<scheme-name>example-transactional<scheme-name>
</cache-mapping>

</class-scheme>
</cachestore-scheme>

</read-write-backing-map-scheme>
</backing-map-scheme>
<autostart>true</autostart>
</distributed-scheme>

Hi,
If you look at the documentation for transactional-scheme here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24290_01/coh.371/e22837/appendix_cacheconfig.htm#BHCIABHA
you will see that it says The transactional-scheme element defines a transactional cache, which is a specialized distributed cache. That means that a transactional-scheme is already a distributed-scheme.
You will see from the same documentation above that there is no way in a transactional-scheme to configure things like cache-stores or listeners or even the backing-map-scheme as these are not supported on a transactional-scheme - so you cannot use a cache store.
Personally I would not use transactional-scheme unless you have some really big reason to do so - the restrictions far outweigh any perceived advantage of having a transaction. There are better ways to build applications so they do not require transactions, that is what we have been doing for years with Coherence so far, and there is no real reason to change that.

Hi
LPX only supports 64bit Audio Unit plugins. You probably need to get the latest updates for all of your plugs.

The problem of installing oracle database 9.2.0 on Redhat 7.2

Hi, there,
I meet an error when I want to run runInstaller to install oracle database 9.2.0 on Redhat 7.2 at the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant step:
ORA-03113:end-of-file on communication channel.
the installer report every other things are installed successfully except Database Configuration Assistant. but after I try to connect to database using sqlplus:
sqlplus /nolog
connect / as sysdba
after a very long responding time, there is an interior error. I don't know how to fix it. do I need reinstall the oracle or mannully configure the database? how to do that? my machine is P2 266 with 128M memory. the harddisk is 30GB. I don't know if this problem is caused by memory limitation?
besides, who knows any other forums or website about oracle database installed on linux? I found there is very limit resource about this content on oarcle website.
any hint will be great appreciated!

It could be because of the memory. Oracle 9.x requires 512 MB minimum on Linux. Also the only Red Hat Oracle is now supporting is Advanced Server. But there are workarounds.
There is an excellent web site for installing Oracle on Linux, but it has been down for the last week or two. But try it maybe next week:

Installing oracle 10g and 11g client on the same Linux RHEL 5.4 host

Is it possible to install Oracle 10g and 11g client on the same Linux RHEL 5.4 host and have the application switch between 10g and 11g? and how would the 10g and 11g be installed?

Thanks for your reply.
Typeically if 10g is installed in /home/roacle/product/10.2.0, are you saying that for 11g, it would be /home/oracle/product/11.0.0 ?
How about switching the application? Does changing the ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variable setting enough ? Let's say from
ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1 to /home/oracle/product/11.0.0/client_1

How to install Oracle Form and Report 6i on existing database

Hi all please help me,
My system is rhel 3 (update 6). My question is how can i install Oracle form and report 6i on my machine, which is already have database 10g R2? I known i have to create two separate ORACLE_HOME. Since i already had database 10g R2, can i just go head install Oracle form and report 6i on separate ORACLE_HOME? or i need to remove database 10g R2 first, and then install Oracle form and report 6i
Thanks in advances
