I want a copy of data from oracle database in Production to my local machine as upgrade is going to be there soon. How can I do that so that I may check my old data later irrespective of upgrade?
From a script how I can read a local file (where I have the sql client)?
I have an Oracle database on a server, and I connect from another machine with SQL Developer.I want to read a text file on my local machine ( where I run my script) to use the data in the script.I never want to read or write on the server.
Reading on internet i read about UTF_FILE package But what is not clear to me is, this is on the server or client ?Also some people says UTF_FILE can work both on client side and server side.Also I read about package text_io, but I think it is only for forms.
i am working on Database 11g. I Need to download file to local after the file is created in the database directory using UTL_FILE . i am able to generate the file but not aware how to copy or download the file to local using PL/SQL . i have done the same in forms using webutil pll.
1) at the click of button, some data will be written to XML file and after writting to file, it should get saved to some location on local machine(c: emp), without asking user, where to save.
How to do this in oracle form?
Also is it possible to read file from local machine?
I need to spool data from a remote server using putty(sqlplus) to a local machine. There are credentials i need to give before accessing the remote databases and i am able to do it..i tired with the below query but the spool file(csv or txt) is not able to create on local machine.
set colsep , set pagesize 120 set trimspool on set headsep off set linesize 1000 set numw
spool D: estmyfile.csv select table_name, tablespace_name from all_tables; spool off
how change the default directory path from server to our local system directory in external table while loading the data from csv file to table actually my default directory 'abc'(installed oracle server directory) in external tables , now i want to change that default directory to my local(c:Sm(not installed oracle s/w)).
I have an application where I generate a excel using data in a table and write excel file in oracle directory.Now my requirement is to open that file from local machine .How can i achieve it.I am using Apex 4.2,Oracle 10g .
i have created an another instance on a single machine i got error when starting up a new one - error starting up database in exclusive mode so i shutdown older database instance , to start new one now is it possible to run both instance parallel?
i am accessing a form from server through URL using oracle application server FORMS & REPORT services. and i am trying to export table data into excel sheet on my local machine or the server itself.
i am using the following code on WHEN BUTTON PRESSED
PROCEDURE REFERENCELIST IS BEGIN DECLARE AppID PLS_INTEGER; ConvID PLS_INTEGER; RCount Number := 0; CURSOR c1 IS SELECT MATID, MATCODE ,DESCRIPTION , PARTNO FROM REFERENCETABLE; PROCEDURE INSERTROW (invalue VARCHAR2, incol NUMBER) IS
[code]....
this does not give any error and any result as well. the above code very much fine while i run it on my local laptop.
We are trying to restore a database on the different server using RAM incremental level 0 and 1 backups. We have weekly Incremental level 0 backups along with incremental backups on daily basis. During recovery of Incremental level 0 backup, RMAN is expecting/looking for Incremental Level 0 backup of prior week as well. Is this the usual process for RMAN to look for prior level 0 backup though we need to restore from the current level 0 backup and roll forward by a week with subsequent Level 1 backup.?
We intend to restore from the Level 0 of 1/16 and roll forward with daily incrementals till 1/22. RMAN is expecting level 0 backupsets from 1/9 backup as well and keep failing since those backups are not available. quick inputs since we are in middle of recovery and trying to resolve if this is even doable.
I have problem on using "delete obsolete" in RMAN.
First, let describe my backup configuration.
1. Full backup every Monday (17-Oct, 10-Oct, 3-Oct, 26-Sep) 2. Incremental backup for other days 3. Enable autobackup of control file 4. Backup archive log every day 5. RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 30 DAYS 6. Execute "Delete obsolete" every day 7. control file is used instead of catalog
The results observed: 1. Backup of control files older than 30 days will be deleted 2. Backup of archive log files older than 30 days will be deleted. 3. Backup of datafiles older than ~14 days but before 30 days are also DELETED.
In my example, the backup of datafiles created at 26-Sep is deleted at 16-Oct.
I tried "restore database validate until time "sysdate-22"" at 17-Oct. And RMAN reported "datafile xx will be created automatically during restore operation". It seems that RMAN failed to do restoration up to 22 days ago. The retention policy I set seems not effective on datafile backups.
I checked view v$backup_set and the "Keep" is "No" and "Keep until" is empty.
The only thing I can think of, is the settings of "CONTROL_FILE_RECORD_KEEP_TIME". It is marked "7" in the Oracle, which is less than the retention. But I suppose this only causes the backup not deleted, but NOT be deleted earlier.
am trying to backup my oracle database using RMAN to a remote machine. both systems are using redhat linux. i have successfully configured NFS on my remote machine and mounted it from my oracle database machine.
i then configure rman channel to disk on mounted linux directory..when i take full backup of database i receive this error
ORA-19504: failed to create file "/mnt/ora_df766174940_s104_s1" ORA-27054: NFS file system where the file is created or resides is not mounted w ith correct options Additional information: 3
How do i mount this with correct options the error msg says OR what do i do to backup to the said directory?
I have 2 seperate rman backup one backup is of only datafile ,spfile and controlfile which i am able to restore and recover without any problem say bkp1 taken at 10 am
other set of backup is of only archive log files of same day but later time than datafile backup say bkp2 taken at 8pm...if i restore and recover bkp1 and try to restore bkp2 it gives error datafile exist (possibly due to fact both backup have control file)
if i just restore bkp1 and try to restore bkp2 so that i can do one recover at time it gives error datafile permission issue (possibly due to fact both backup have control file)
I want to restore database upto 8pm time how can i use both bkp1 and bkp2 to do it(restore datafiles and apply all archive logs on it)
I have oracle 11.2.0.3.0 in Windows 2008 server R2 64 bit version. I have installed database ASMDB with ASM ... Now i have another one machine , I want to clone my database in that machine with Non ASM file system .. Can any one tell me step by step document to do it ?
Can i keep the database name as ASMDB in another Machine ?

I run DLY cold backups including controlfile & archivelogs and keep 3 gens of backups and archivelogs to 3 days also. What is the correct procedure to restore back to an old cold backup. Database is backed up Mon,Tue,Wed on Thur we require to bring database back to Tuesday DLY security.
I have tried: startup mount restore database from tag 'DLYTUE' recover database
( this just rolls forward on all archive logs once it restores datafiles, not getting to point to alter database open resetlogs.)
Next tried to :
recover database archivelog tag 'DLYTUE' ( same outcome )
What is the correct rman procedure including should I remove old archive logs from working OS directory ? Also need to know once I restore back and open database to TUE security how do you tidy up the archive logs and dumps which are no longer require i.e. : weds..
I have read about using the set until time option but how to I get absolute time from when cold backup completed if this is the correct procedure.
I just switched my STBDY DB to a PRIMARY DB and I am ran the following:
RMAN> CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE;

what causes this warning and how to get rid of it?
