We are into pre-production stage for Oracle RAC implementation. I have setup Oracle 10g 2 node RAC, currently i have been experiencing TAF failures for TOAD client. TOAD client session simply disconnects rather than failing over to the next node, It is noticed that TAF succesfully works for SQL client from the same client machine. Attached herewith are following from both nodes :
1) Listener file node1, node2
2) TNS file node1, node2
3) TNS file client
4) Output of show parameter listener from node1, node2
5) Output of lsnrctl services node1, node2
Summary of environment :
OS - Windows 2003 entp edition sp2, 32 bit
Database server - 10.2.0.5.0
I am installaing oracle RAC 11.2.0.1. After I installed the grid infrastructure, when I ran root.sh, I got below errors;
ASM failed to start. Check /d1/app/grid/cfgtoollogs/asmca/asmca-1109068AM4612.log for details.
Configuration of ASM failed, see logs for details Did not succssfully configure and start ASM CRS-2500: Cannot stop resource 'ora.crsd' as it is not running
From Windows, I can successfully create and connect with a system data source using an user Oracle account.But when doing then same configuration process I can not create or connect using the 'SYS' account.
i get the error 'ORA-2009: connection as SYS should be as SYSDBA or SYSOPER'.
What is the solution to creating an ODBC DSN for the user 'SYS'?
I want to install Oracle EE 11gR2 on my Windows 7 Professional 64-bit laptop. Installed memory is 8GB.I need to install 32-bit server since Oracle Warehouse Builder will not run on a 64-bit o/s. Further, I use Toad 9.7.2 which will only recognise client 32-bit.
I had a few failed attempts, especially when the database was being created with the ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error,
So here's what I did:
Changed C:WindowsSystem32driversetchosts so that it contains two lines 127.0.0.1 localhost & ::1 localhost Changed properties of setup.exe in the installation directory to be Windows XP SP2 compatible and run as administrator Selected "install database software only" (so I could figure out at what step the installation fails) Selected "single instance" Selected "Enterprise Edition" Selected oracle base "c:app" (instead of default location c:appd_seng)
Copy of files was completed successfully, log file was created in c:program files(x86)oracleinventorylogs & registry entries were added to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeORACLE" (with keys KEY_OraDb11g_home1, ODP.NET & OracleMTSRecoveryService), and the following services were created:
OracleMTSRecoveryService: Started/Automatic OracleOraDb11g_home1ClrAgent: Not started/Manual OracleRemExecService: Started/Disabled
There are no listener.ora & tnsnames.ora yet. Sqlnet.ora is created with the line SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
Now I went to Start, All Programs, Oracle - OraDb11g_home1, Configuration and Migration Tools, right clicked on "Net Configuration Assistant" and changed the properties to be Windows XP SP2 compatible and run as administrator and ran it. I selected "Listener Configuration", added a listener called LISTENER, TCP protocol, port 1521 and finished. A service called "OracleOraDb11g_home1TNSListener" was created and started in automatic mode. The PATH was updated and listener.ora was created with the lines:

The command completed successfully Now I went to start, all programs, Oracle - OraDb11g_home1, Configuration and Migration Tools, right clicked on "Database Configuration Assistant" and changed the properties to be Windows XP SP2 compatible and run as administrator and ran it.
I chose to create a databaseGeneral purpose Global database name ORCL SID ORCL Chose "Configure Enterprise Manager" & "Configure Database Control for local management" and disabled "Automatic maintenance tasks" Used the same password for all accounts
Selected storage type "File System" & "Use Database File Locations from Template" Unchecked Flash Recovery & Archiving Selected "Sample Schemas", "Typical" memory size (1228MB), "Use Automatic Memory Management" Left sizing/character sets/connection mode as default, and Selected "Generate Database Creation Scripts" in C:appadminORCLscripts (if I choose to Create Database, it fails with TNS Protocol Adapter Error).
I now open ORCL.bat in an editor, go to command prompt, create the directories as per the file, set ORACLE_SID=ORCL & path.
The next step C:appproduct11.2.0dbhome_1inoradim.exe -edit -sid ORCL -startmode auto -srvcstart system give an error "Unable to start service, OS Error 1056" (probably implies services already running), nothing is present in the windows alert logs about this. If I stop the service OracleVssWriterORCL, then this command completes, although no messages are returned.
The next step in the batch file starts sqplus /nolog and calls ORCL.sql.
ORCL.sql accepts passwords for sys, system, sysman & dbsnmp. It then executes host C:appproduct11.2.0dbhome_1inorapwd.exe file=C:appproduct11.2.0dbhome_1databasePWDORCL.ora force=y, which prompts me for the password for sys.
ORCL.sql then calls CloneRmanRestore.sql, which then tries to run connect "SYS"/"&&sysPassword" as SYSDBA
This is when I get the error ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error, which has been haunting me for days.
My gut feel is that the database creation step at sqlplus is unable to recognise the listener...or probably it does not recognise the modified registry location (with Wow6432Node), the file oracle.key in C:appproduct11.2.0dbhome_1BIN shows the string SOFTWAREORACLEKEY_OraDb11g_home1.
I then changed oracle.key to point to SOFTWAREWow6432NodeORACLEKEY_OraDb11g_home1, restarted the listener and ORCL service, but connecting as sys returns the same error.
im trying to migrate Sybase 12.5 to oracle 11G R2 on linux all tables are fine expect one which fails with error
"SQL Error: ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0 01841. 00000 - "(full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0" *Cause: Illegal year entered *Action: Input year in the specified range"
i have change the data type from CHAR to VARCHAR2 etc as for the datatype date shows as date on the tool - I'm using sqldeveloper from oracle.
I have installed Oracle 10g XE in my laptop having Windows 7 home 64 bit OS..I have created some users in the oracle and iam able to connect these users through cmd prompt..But the issue is that iam unable to connect to the database through TOAD..
I have given the user name and password and database as XE and connect using as : XE but still iam getting the error as "TNS could not resolve the connect identifier (XE).
Unable to connect in TOAD in ORACLE 11g through sys user.
I am using Toad for ORACLE version 9.0.0.160 and ORACLE 11gR2 (11.2.0.1).
I make the FALSE to "sec_case_sensitive_logon" parameter hence not able to login through sys user. I can logged in through system user without any issue.
My colleague sent me a sql script to copy and execute in Toad for Data Analysts (see attached). Once I execute I get error messages on the date and a few other lines. My question is should I completely rewrite the script?
I would rather have this in a grid format anyway with the same data instead of how this script is pulling. I'm very green when it comes to this (if you didn't notice) and need some insight esp. on the date format considering the date column has 10 digits i.e. 1209105576.
I am running TOAD 10.6 on Windows 7 (64-bit). I have two 64-bit Oracle 11g clients installed (all on the same machine). The first is Instant Client (client_1); the second is the Runtime client (client_2). The installation of Instant Client was a mistake, since it doesn't have a Network / Admin folder to drop a tnsnames.ora file into. The Runtime client is my desired client, which has the aforementioned folder that I subsequently dropped the file into.
On starting TOAD, it says that "No valid Oracle Client found. Please note that Toad only supports 32 bit Oracle Client installations". (This is odd, since my colleague is running the same Oracle Runtime client as me and has TOAD 11.6, and yet his is working fine. But, this is aside the point.) When, I click on the ellipsis button next to the "Connecting Using" field, TOAD says that I don't have any Oracle homes installed. I checked my registry key (via regedit) under Computer / HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SOFTWARE / ORACLE. It looks like I have 2 Oracle homes (because of the 2 clients).
Also, I right-clicked on My Computer and brought up Properties, Advanced system settings, Environment Variables (on the Advanced tab). My PATH variable has both of my clients.
How to make my available clients (particularly, my client_2) show up in TOAD?
Here is what I have tried thus far:
-Alter the PATH variable to just have client_2. This didn't do anything.
-Try to uninstall client_1 and client_2 via:
a) There is a Universal Installer under Oracle Installation Products in my Runtime client. I do Deinstall Products, click on any of my Oracle homes, click on Remove, and a Warning window pops up saying to run a command at some location, but the location is truncated since I can't expand the window.
b) In my client_2, there is a deinstall Windows Batch File in the deinstall folder. When I run this, the command window sits there for a little bit, saying that some files were copied and that 1 directory was removed. It then closes on its own. This doesn't seem to do anything.
I have TOAD 8.6 installed and hoping to use with Oracle 10g databases. I have SQL Navigator also - it works fine. However TOAD does not. Open up TOAD and see the TNS dropdown, select a database and try to log in - click on Connect and the little SQL hour glass comes on, goes off - there is no error, no message and no connection. I have tried several databases and again, SQLPlus, SQL Navigator are both working fine.
I installed Oracle 10g XE and Toad 10.5 in my home system.I am able to connect to Oracle from Oracle XE homepage and XE SQL command line but when I try to connect to Oracle from toad 10.5 I am getting the error 'TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified (XE)'.From toad I tried direct and TNS options but it did not work. My tns ora file looks like below.
TNS_ADMIN variable has correct parameter and Toad is directing the correct TNS file. I tried changing hostname with my system's ip but still I am unable to connect to Oracle from Toad.
how to import data from Excel sheet (inside server) to oracle DB.
Explanation : I need to automate this work, whenever i get an excel sheets with table values, i need to import the table values in to oracle DB automatically.I need an immediate solution for this.
"instantclient" already downloaded and configured as below :
dll files like "oci.dll,... etc" are here : C:Oracleinstantclientinstantclient_11_2 Created both tnsnames.ora & listener.ora are here : C:Oracleinstantclient etworkadmin
And did the below in user/system variables :
User Variables : ========= TNS_ADMIN with value "C:Oracleinstantclient etworkadmin"
System Variables : =========== TNS_ADMIN with value "C:Oracleinstantclient etworkadmin" ORACLE_HOME with value "C:Oracleinstantclient" Path edited and added this value "C:Oracleinstantclientinstantclient_11_2"
comparison of oracle and toad products.I know we have oracle enterprise manager for doing application and enterprise management.I am listing the tools from toad
Can list the tools from oracle which have or perform the same functionality.

when i try to connect with sqlplus or toad then i get an error
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7600] Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. C:Users>sqlplus SP2-1503: Unable to initialize Oracle call interface SP2-0152: ORACLE may not be functioning properly C:Users>
and i want to tell what i do before it-my all files were be converted in .FLT then i shorted out this problem after that when i tried to connect with sqlplus or toad then i get above error.and i have restarted my system but throwing same error.
I am planning to install oracle RAC 11g R2 on RHEL 5.3. I have 2 RAC nodes and one openfiler NAS. I need to understand how will I configure SCAN IP. Do I need to configure it some where in DSN and OS level or just I need to give this IP and SCAN name while grid install and oracle will create these things?overall steps to configure this or direct me to some documentation where this thing is detailed.
I'm trying to install Oracle 11gR2 RAC on AIX, do we need to turn on Multicasting, can we install without multicasting? Also can I have the ASM disk with external redundancy for OCR and Voting Disk?
After the reboots each system was using around 30 GB of memory... now that it's been up for a week memory is up to 98GB used on each system. None of the systems are swapping.
Yesterday I was installing 11.2.0.2 patch to our Oracle 11gR2(11.2.0.1.0) Two node RAC cluster on OEL 5.4 x86 Linux.Before installing I have read [URL] support note which says "Note: All Oracle Grid Infrastructure patch set upgrades must be out-of-place upgrades, in which you install the patch set into a new Grid home. In-place patch set upgrades are not supported. "
During Installation I found following Installation Option :
1) Install and configure Oracle grid Infrastructure for a cluster
2) Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Server
3) Upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure or Oracle Automatic Storage Management
4) Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure Software Only
