Backup & Recovery :: Moving From One Windows Environment To Another Linux Environment?
Jun 19, 2012
I'm trying to move my backup sets from windows database environment, to OEL 5.7 environment on another server.
I've found a manual [URL] by which I am trying to do it.I took backup sets from last night's backup using RMAN,and the current parameter(initSID.ora) file from the running live database.Now i need to configure control files in the pfile accordingly.
1. can i take current control files from the running system, to restore and recover backup sets from last night, to the state the database was at backup time?
2. how can i find out if control files are backed up and know by RMAN? "list backup completed after '2012-JUN-19';" >> gives me Archive redo logs, datafiles, but don't see the control files(or don't reconize them).
We are in the process of setting up a DR environment for our SAP and Oracle databases . The netapp and our architects came up with solution as follows .
1.Standby databases are built for all production databases. 2.The SAP file systems are replicated to the secondary site 3.The Oracle logfiles and controlfiles are replicated by netapp snap mirror every 10 mins interval 4.The database is recovered through recover standby database every 15 mins at standby site 5.Please note there is no data guard involved . 6.To test the failover , the mirror is broken .The standby controlfile is replaced with Production controlfile and Redo logs files. 7.The standby database issued a startup comnmand and it worked .
Would like to know whether the step 6 is a correct approach ? I tried to convince the architects that this will result in a very disastrous situation for us but none is listened to .
We have 2 node cluster with 10.2.0.4 home and 11.2.0.2 home under 11gr2 grid infrastructure with ASM in LINUX environment. We are planning to add 3rd node to this cluster. Is there any issues to add 3rd node to existing environment or running fine.

when migrating from 32 bit Linux to 64 bit Windows version on database standard edition, is there a server media needed?if yes, can you give me more details on what it consists of?
I am trying to generate dynamic control file, as the files I want to upload are coming from different source and their name is constantly changing but following a fix pattern and naming convention.
I am able to generate dynamic control file through SQL. But while calling from BATCH file, i am unable to sent the file name as parameter.
All the examples i have searched are for UNIX, how to do it with BATCH File in WINDOWS.
I've inherited a DB where they are going to do a restore this weekend.
The current DB admin is using a db restore (not a duplicate). RMAN with no catalog. The current issue is that the DB restores fine, but when we do a delete obsolete after our backups it's asking if we want to delete the data files.

I have facing problem while taking backup on Windows 7 client of Oracle 11g R2 database. I have installed oracle 11gR2 for windows on windows 7 machine. I have created a directory like below in database.
On Database Server
SQL> create directory win_expdp_dir as 'd:expimp';
Directory created.
SQL> grant read, write on directory win_expdp_dir to lab;
Grant succeeded.
On Windows 7 machine (client machine)
D:appproduct11.2.0client_1BIN>expdp lab/lab@wbdata.wbh-db11g DIRECTORY=win_expdp_dir DUMPFILE=lab.dmp LOGFILE=lab.log Export: Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production on Mon May 2 12:51:44 2011 Copyright (c) 1982, 2009, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

I have give all sharing rights on d:expimp directory. My main question is why i'm getting this error. Is there any thing missing in setup. how to take export on windows 7 client.
I am trying to setup incremental backup on my windows OS based server using RMAN command in batch file. When I use batch file in OS scheduler it is working fine, when I am calling same batch file from my LOCAL desktop PC it throws errors as below.

(2) Whats the difference between CSR_HOME and GRID_HOME ?? (3) If not using ASM in RAC environment, should I still need to create "storage administration role" (i.e. SYSASM/OSASM..) ? (4) Is password file necessary for RAC instances in each node ?
I faced a problem in our production primary DB like the listener was running but it was not connecting through the remote system, when i accessed the primary database.
But when i restarted the listener it started connecting. I want to know the reason for this crash/freeze.
Oracle version: Oracle Database 11g release 11.2.0.1.0 SE1 64 - bit production
We have a 10g environment with DataGuard running for reporting purposes. Our application team is getting ready to upgrade their application and it requires that several SQL Scripts be run to perform the primary database updates. A couple of them are over 1 MB in length. My concern is that these scripts will break DataGuard. I am not a DBA by any stretch, but I seem to remember there are certain limitations with DataGuard.
I have reached back to the team and asked them to have the Vendor confirm these scripts are validated for a DataGuard environment and I have also reached out to the System DBAs for review. I am wondering if there is an utiility available that can check the SQL to confirm if there are any DDL or DML statements that will not work in DataGuard. Likewise, we are going to run these scripts in a non-production DataGuard enabled environment first, but I want to have some level of confidence, that this will be a success.
We have an application, where we invoke a URL pointing to a folder on the Application Server, so that users can download files from the same.
There is user authentication provided for the URL.
Example :
Our application ABC (example) which is built with Oracle Forms 10g, hosted on Application server (itxxx123) inovkes a module GEN9999 which on pressing a button calls a URL which is open in the Internet Explorer browser.
If the URL has been called from the Forms or the Application (ABC), then it should be allowed.
If the URL is called standalone, by Opening IE Browser and invoking the URL, this should not be allowed.
However, there have been security concerns raised during Audit, saying that users can access the URL directly from the Browser instead of the Application. Also the URL is saved the Browser history, so even if the user is no longer working in the Application Team, and has moved out of the team, then the ex-user can still access the URL and view and download files.
Is there any way to restrict access to the URL such that is only accessible when it is called from the Application, and that access is restricted when directly called from the Browser.
I have seen that environment variables in httpd.conf may be usable for the above. However, not sure how to use them from Oracle Forms.
Questions about implementing ARCHIVELOG mode in RAC environment.
Oracle 11gR1 RAC + ASM database. I'd like to implement ARCHIVELOG mode. Each node will have its own archive log.
Does it make sense to place archivelogs on ASM (shared storage)? Or the best practice would be to have some aside "BACKUP" server to place and keep archivelogs from all the RAC nodes there?
Additional question is about archive logs space required estimation. If it's correct to know estimate archive logs space required to get the daily avg number of switch logs
CODEselect round(avg(n_of_switch_logs), 3) avg_num_of_switch_logs from (select trunc(first_time), count(*) n_of_switch_logs from gv$log_history group by trunc(first_time)) and multiply it on size of single redolog?
I am calling a select query inside a procedure but i need to set environment variable 'set linesize 200' inside that procedure but i am not able to create the procedure due to some error. I am attaching the procedure query here with:
before the select query i need to insert this environment variable : "set linesize 200"
I have to create/configure the environment for the database having high volume of the transactions nearly 10000 transactions per day and at peak time nearly 1500 transactions per second.
RAC can be one of the solution but that comes up with high cost. I googled for this type of environment configuration, what could be possible settings need to be configured for this environment configuration in both RAC and Non-RAC.
Below is my code for calling a report from form in windows environment. I want to use the same report to be called from Unix environment . When m using application server tbanner@.... instead of 'repsrv@ahad-pc' is throwing error its in UNIX environment

I am working in all 3 environments: development , Test and Production. How can we access the tables created in one environment in the other environment. Also, request to share the SQL code for the same.
Need patch strategy specially for production environment?? We have production environment and we are planning to patch our databases using PSU pacthes with no downtime. Our production environment has standby. We have one option that we can make standby to primary. Is there any other options that we can use?
recently i have tried to upgrrade from oracle 11.2.0.2 to 11.2.0.3 in a test environment (virtual machine).
there i have mentioned the SID as ORCL, but when we took the same snapshot to other machine (VM). iam unable to connect to the VM, unless i gave the local net service configuration as ORCL but it is unable to connect. but when i ran the query "select * from GLOBAL_NAME" output was ORCL. domain. com again i have configured in LNSC as ORCL.DOMAIN.COM it is working.
