Clone Testing Database From X86 To X64 Using DBCA Clonic Templates
Sep 14, 2012
I'm using Oracle Database 11g R2 for study purposes.Currently I'm learning about the DBCA clonic templates.I have an Oracle DB 11g R2 X86 running properly in Ms Windows XP Professional SP 3 X86, using DBCA I created the seed template file .dbc and the .CTL and .DBF files, later I copied those files to a server running Oracle DB 11g R2 X86 in Ms Windows 7 Ultimate X86. Again, using DBCA I successfully created the source database through the seed template file, everything was ok.
Now, I formatted my testing server and I installed Ms Windows 7 Ultimate X64 and Oracle Database 11g R2 X64. I copied the seed template file .dbc and the .CTL and .DBF files to "assistantsdbca emplates" directory. Well, I started DBCA to try create the source database and when the DBCA is creating and starting the Oracle instance it shows the errors:
I have problems in opening the database of the physical standby in read- write mode/ read only mode. I have a primary server which is running on 2 node RAC and the standby on a seperate single server being used as DR. I recently got this server and my aim was to isolate the standby server from primary server and perform few test. As it has never been tested even once.
Primary Database spec: (2 Node Rac on ASM) Oracle Version : 10.2.0.3.0 O/s : HP-UX B.11.23
alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database open 2 ; alter database open * ERROR at line 1: ORA-16004: backup database requires recovery ORA-01152: file 1 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup ORA-01110: data file 1: '+DATA/dprod/datafile/system01.dbf'
Steps tried so far: Changed log_archive_dest_2 = DEFER on both the primary nodes
Standby :
startup nomount alter database mount standby database; alter database recover managed standby database disconnect; alter database recover managed standby database cancel; alter database open/readonly (tried both) Same error.
On Primary: SQL> select max(sequence#) from v$log_history;
Additional Information : There is a delay of 20 minutes before the logs get applied. which has been intentional set by team. Dataguard broker is not configured as well.
I tried to clone a 2 node rac database to single instance non rac database using existing backup. I have not used connectivity to target or catalog. rman duplicate finished with below messages:
rman auxiliary sys/******@dbracdup RMAN> duplicate database to dbrac spfile backup location '/oracle/backup'; ... ... Finished recover at 25-JUL-12 Segmentation fault
And the database was in mount stage, and when i tried to open database it failed with below error:
SQL> alter database open; alter database open * ERROR at line 1: ORA-19838: Cannot use this control file to open database .
I have a query regarding the cloning of a database.
Actually, i have made the two machine on a single system(Laptop) and now i want to clone the database, so for that i am unable to move the database backup from one Machine to another.
how can i move the backup and which command is applicable for that.
Note: - Listener/TNS is already configured on both the database.
I have an Oracle 10.1 database on a Windows 32 bit platform that I am attempting to clone to a new server to make a development instance.
For this particular scenario the database needs to stay at version 10.1. Both servers are Windows Server 2003. Following oracle docs I have copied the home folder and am attempting to run OUI with the clone switch.
OUI crashes and reports the error as "unknown". OUI also crashes if I try to run it without the clone switch from gui.
Why this occurs, and have confirmed that PATH is correct etc on the new dev server and the other obvious stuff.
I just need a quick way of getting this dev server instance up and running AND maintaining the same database version (10.1). I thought the clone operation would be a good option but don't know how to troubleshoot when the error is "unknown".
I want to create such a script to clone the Database user with the new name. Just like we do normal import and export I want that i should enter just the username of the existing user and username of the new user I want to get created, the password for the same.
It should create the new user with all roles and the default roles and privileges of old user.
I tried to convert a physical SuseLinux with Oracle 9i Machine into an virtual Machine (esxi Server 5.0). (VMware vCenter Converter ) Before started I shutdown database:
su – oracle sqlplus ‘/ as sysdba’ shutdown and the run converter.
But i have problem with copy /u01 and /u02 (database files) "Error: Unable to clone the volume mounted on '/u01' "
So i want clone machine without /u01 and /u02 then copy file. What I should do to be correctly?
1. I installed oralce with Service_Name=DB1 it works fine,
2. I created another database with dbca named DB2,
3. I connected both system/password@db1 and system/password@db2 without any problem,
4. After rebooting the computer I can connect only the first database DB1 which I installed with Oracle installation. But, I can not connect to the 2nd database which I created with dbca. Error Message Shows: ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
DB1 has no problem I can connect to that, but I can not connect to DB2 after rebooting the system. Now I need to know how to connect to DB2.

I have a RedHat Server with Oracle Ent. 8iI did a full export of all my current data bases ( DCTEST, DCPROG, DCUSAC, DCCAND)I now have the DC*.dmp files. How can I know import these files into Oracle Database 11R2?
Do you have a Step-by-Step how-to ?IF I don't have the scripts to re-create the databases how to go forward ?
when i am trying to create a new database in oracle 10 g in my local system when creating database error shows a number 146 no other error is showing what must be the reason.
I have installed asm lib and asm instance has started successfully and is working if i am using
EXPORT ORACLE_SID=+ASM
but if I am using DBCA after that to create database on ASM activated disk group I am having problem in creation of spfile. How to follow steps to create database using already installed /mounted disk group with DBCA.
On our test database server, we restore a copy of the production database from the rman backup. The process worked well and we could connect and do the processing with sqlplus, or any other third party tools like Toad.
Strange enough, Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) does not recognize it. So if we like to drop the database from the DBCA, it is not there. Also we could not get the DBCONSOLE to work with.
The all powerful command: emca -repos recreate generates a list of errors.
I installed Oracle 11gR2 withouth creating a database in my laptop. Later when I tried to crete the database using DBCA it shows error ORA-01078:failure in processing system parameters.I clicked on ignore error, then shows the error ORA-01034: Oracle not available.
I am getting a ORA-03114 (not connected to Oracle) error when I am creating a DB using DBCA. Here are the steps that I do:
1) Log onto the server remotely, using Exceed Query 2) Connect as the oracle user (Oracle) 3) set ORACLE_HOME, PATH 4) Run DBCA, give parameters
At around 12% and again at 19%, I get the error (see screenshot). I also tried to generate the scripts and run them remotely, and the steps run successfully upto & including the step " startup nomount pfile="/oracle/admin/<dbname>/scripts/init.ora"; ". After that, when I try to run the script specified in rmanRestoreDatafiles.sql from SQL> prompt, the error appears, and connection to ORACLE is lost.
Googling the error shows that it is a connectivilty issue, and Oracle says that it is usually caused by user scripts. But I am not running any user-created scripts as part of the DBCA process. Somehow, the instance is timing out immediately after doing the "startup nomount".
I am using 10.2.0.1 on OEL5. I have installed CRS, Oracle home, ASM on both nodes and everything is fine.
When invoked dbca to create a database, it says:
*'DBCA could not startup the ASM instance configured on this node. To proceed with database creation using ASM you need the ASM instance to be up and running. Do you want to recreate the ASM instance on this node?'*
Is it a bug? because some blogs say this is a bug. And patch 8288940 will solve this. They also say this patch is to solve the incompatibility between 11g ASM incompatibility with 10g. But here I am using everything of 10.2.0.1.
I'm getting a "TNS disconnect" after database creation script creation in DBCA. Haven't figured out what's going on. I'm attempting to create a 2nd database on one linux 64 server. I get all the way through DBCA, but it won't go the final mile. Any thoughts? I've tried setting the port to a different port from the existing LISTENER, creating a LISTENER2 and associating it with the 2nd instance.
