Server Administration :: Oracle Rac Standard / Enterprise
Jul 15, 2011
10g Oracle Standard Edition RAC feature and how it is charged. I mean: is it free option for Standard Edition or payable?
I read something about Baby Rac on wiki and there was information that only with Engerprise Edition RAC is an extra-charge option for Standard Edition RAC is included.

Quote:Oracle Corporation includes RAC with the Standard Edition of Oracle Database (aka Baby RAC), but makes it an extra-charge option for the Enterprise Edition
We do have corporate licencing model in our firm, so we can evaluate what version of Oracle we need to install (One, Standard or Enterprise) bu there is no matter what version we chosed, because our licensing model give us possibility to install the highest version. So usually we were choosing the Enterprise Editions.
But only limitation for us is an options. We can't have additional option like partitioning, RAC, Oracle Tuning Pack, etc... in order to have additional option we need approval from our financial management.
I have idea to change one of our installation from Enterprise Edition to Standard Edition in order to have RAC option for free. Like i said. If we want to have RAC in our Enterprise Edition we need additional approval of money expense - but this is not easy. But our licensing model give us possibility to install Standard Edition of Oracle instead or Enterprise Edition and have RAC option include without additional expenses.
The only supported technique for converting an EE database to SE is export-inport, as documented in note 139642.1. Our client is reluctant to do this because of the downtime involved. It is however possible to open the EE database from an SE home, no problem.
The note says only Quote:When you just install the Standard Edition software, you will end up with Data Dictionary objects which are of no use (or perhaps even invalid) and possibly create problems when maintaining the database.
In our current setup we have RAC on standard edition and client is now planning to go for Enterprise Edition but not yet decide because of cost. Is there any difference between Grid Infrastructure 11gR3 Enterprise edition and Standard Edition ?
They told me to first install Enterprise Edition and then will move to Standard Edition if they can't get the EE license so in that case do i have to re-install Grid infrastructure for standard edition?
I am using oracle 10g with sga_max_size =4GB and db block size 16k. Now i am creating a tablespace with block size 32 kb , whats value i select for the parameter db_32k_cache_size.
Is there any standard way to calculate the value of this parameter.
Recently we have downgraded our database from enterprise to standard edition.....our sga size before downgrade was 11 gb and now it is 11gb and there is no as such problem in database..I have read somewhere that standard edition doesn't support sga size more than 2 gb .
I am checking out licenses. We all know that EE is much more expensive than SE. But many customers do have EE installed - unsure if they need all the features at all. After several years of production, a downgrade is considered 'risky' and we continue to pay the full EE.
How can we check and be sure that a downgrade to SE would not be any problem?
Some checks include: * partitioning used in user schemas? --> no downgrade to EE * bitmap indexes in user schemas? --> no downgrade to EE
How can we complete this list, or is there some script to make this easy?
Using OUI i have removed the Enterprise Manager DBConsole component and now i need to reinstall them. After starting runinstaller i choose Advance and then Custom and i check the Enterprise Manager DBConsole and after i click on next it says cannot install on the same ORACLE_HOME. How can i reinstall the removed components using OUI. This is not Grid Control
I am trying to find documentation of how to install Oracle Weblogic Server 9.2 mp4 on Oracle Enterprise Server 10. The operation system is SuSE Linux Enterprise 9 sp4.
I'm installing Oracle 10g (10.2.0.4) RAC on Windows enterprise Server. Am able to install cluster ware (10.2.0.4). While installing ASM (10.2.0.3)/ DB its going to restart both the servers automatically. Is there any problem with this Versions (OS and Oracle) combination. Is it compatible or Not?
My problem is i install Oracle 9i enterprise edition 9.0.1.1.1 in windows xp professional but at the time of oracle database confiuration assistent it show me following errors it show:

I check in registry of windows server 2012 x64 can't show Oracle folder in registry.how to connect from Visual studio 2012 express on windows server 2012 Standard evaluation x64 to Oracle database 10g.
I have requirement where replication should be done between two 11gR2 RAC on Standard edition.I have following queries,1. Does Standard edition support DDL capture?
Im asking this because on
[URL]......
it says "SE1/SE: no capture from redo" what that really mean ??2. Can it be possible to configure capture at schema level and skip only some of the tables / triggers ?
I am having a database running in my windows 2003 server and I want to configure Enterprise manager for that database to check the resource utilization during the peak hours and also the number of transactions...
We are upgrading from oracle 9.2.0.8 to 11g r2, and both are Standard Edition database. The database is part of a product that runs on a customer site, and won't get bigger than 50 GB. It runs in archive mode, and our backup script does a hot backup every night, plus copying the archive logs, redos, controlfiles, etc. We save 2 entire backups - from the last night plus the night before last. Then there's a tape backup that saves the backed-up files to an off-server location.
This architecture has allowed us to recover our customer's data from many odd occurrences at customer sites (power loss during a hot backup, corrupt controlfiles/datafiles/archivelogs). My question is, given that we are running the Standard Edition database, which doesn't have most of the useful RMAN features, is it worth it to switch to RMAN?
I took an Oracle Backup and Recovery class and posed this question to the instructor, and the response was, it would be better to use RMAN over a manual user backup script. Our backup script is pretty battle-hardened - is that the best reason?
I read that Oracle RAC which is bundled in Standard Edition can support at max 4 sockets. One of my client has a proposal of using RAC but for 3 nodes each using single 1 quad core Intel processor. As far as i understood, an Intel quad core is a multi chip module and actually is a combination of 2 modules dual core, so each Intel quad core may be counted as 2 sockets. Which yield to the proposal of my client will be failed, as the total number of sockets in it will be: 2*3=6 that exceed the max 4 support.
my customer wants to create a standby database for his production database (Oracle Standard Edition 11g R2 @ Windows 2008 R2 64 Bit). Now any proof-of-concept which explains shortly the concept and how to achieve it.
I wish to run a SQL query and measure elapsed time, then compare the values to other Oracle DBs from other companies. That will give me a feeling if our DB performs well.For example in UNIX world, you can create a random 4GB file to measure throughput I/O and compare the values (for example 4MB/sec).
What's the simplest way to compare DB response time from forum members to our own DB? I don't need 100% accurate numbers.
To rewrite this sql which is in ANSI 92 standard to ANSI 89 standard.
