Testing 9i On Virtual Machine Under RHEL 4.8
Sep 1, 2010
I work as a Sys. Admin. for several RHEL 3.8 servers, most of them are clusters of 2 machines. All these servers are running Oracle 9.2.0.7 database. They are running fine on a separate filesystem. So everytime the system has to be formatted for some particular reason, there is no need to re-install the database.
I am trying to make some tests by running the same filesystem containing the oracle database in a fresh Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.8 X86_64 Install. This task has become impossible, and I'm not quite sure why.
I installed all the compat- packages required for a fresh oracle 9 install in a RHEL4 machine, but at the time of stating the STARTUP sentence, it gives me the next error:
CMCLI ERROR: OpenCommPort: connect failed with error 2.
CMCLI ERROR: OpenCommPort: connect failed with error 2.
CMCLI ERROR: OpenCommPort: connect failed with error 2.
CMCLI ERROR: OpenCommPort: connect failed with error 2.
CMCLI ERROR: OpenCommPort: connect failed with error 2.
After this error (repeated) it says something like: Cannot start an already running database.... But if i stat a shutdown sentence, it says that the instance has not been initialized....
I don't know whether i have to re-install all the oracle software in order to make a clean install in the new kernel version or not, i tried to apply a patch, and the oracle installer recognized the installation i had.
I think it might be because the original system is configured to work as a cluster, and i'm running it on only a virtual machine.

Does already installed Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1) on a windows 2003 server x64? Do you notice strange behaviors, any errors after the installation?
Does already installed Oracle 10g on a windows virtual machine? Are there any prerequisites?

How to get a RAC running in an EC2 environment?
It isn't possible to use one EC2 machine for each RAC node because EC2 can't handle the virtual IPs, but I had thought that I could use one EC2 machine to host several Linux VMs using Virtual Box (the same way that I use Virtual Box on a Windows host). But I can't get Virtual Box working on EC2. The only relevant advice I can find on this is comments to the effect that running any virtualization product with a Xen machine as host is not a good idea.
I do realize that this isn't a 100% Oracle question, but if set up a RAC on an Amazon Cloud machine,

I have a Host system of windows 8, installed the Virtual Box Latest edition.The guest OS is the oracle Linux that came with the Pre-Built Developer VMs from Oracle.The VM is set to HOST ONLY network setting. Now, the thing is that i want to access the Oracle in the guest machine from my windows host machine.the guest OS shows the IP address as 192.168.56.101. I can ping the IP address from the HOST machine, but cannot connect theSQL developer to the oracle in the guest OS from the host machine. It keeps on saying the Network adapter cannot connect. do not say that install the oracle in window itself. I actually want to do the same on my macbook pro as that is my primary machine.

When I install Oracle Database 11gR2 and click on "SETUP" file, a message box namely JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE LAUNCHER and display below error;
_"Could not find the main class. Program will exit."_
Same setup runs successfully on my server with Windows Server 2008 Enterprise.
Is it 11gr2 supports a virtual machine which have Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacentre 64-bit ? or some other?

I am trying to install 10gr2 on a 32 bit RHEL 5 OS. One of the packages that's need to be installed is elfutils-libelf-devel-0 according to metalink.
Now, when I try to install it i get the following error:
error: Failed dependencies:
elfutils-libelf-devel-static-i386 = 0.137-3.el5 is needed by elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386
Now i tried to install the said dependency and i got this error:
error: Failed dependencies:
elfutils-libelf-devel-i386 = 0.137-3.el5 is needed by elfutils-libelf-devel-static-0.137-3.el5.i386
I saw a somehow similar solution in
[URL].........
I have to install both the packages in the same rpm command according to the link and i got the following:
[root@MCISMACAMDB Server]# rpm -ivh elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm elfutils-libelf-devel-static-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm
warning: elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 37017186
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:elfutils-libelf-devel-s########################################### [ 50%]
2:elfutils-libelf-devel ########################################### [100%]
The ..static package didn't seem to have installed completely. I tried checking if elfutils-libelf-devel-i386 = 0.137-3.el5 was really installed:
[root@MCISMACAMDB Server]# rpm -q elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm
package elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm is not installed
So i tried installing it again then the system prompted that it is already installed:
[root@MCISMACAMDB Server]# rpm -ivh elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm
warning: elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 37017186
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386 is already installed
Did i make the right steps? Can i go on now? I don't know if what I did was correct and ok and that I should already consider that package as installed.

I am trying to install Oracle 10g RAC clusterware on RHEL-ES-4 using vmware. everything works properly till the time root.sh on second node.
I am getting the below error.
Adding daemons to inittab
Expecting the CRS daemons to be up within 600 seconds.
Failure at final check of Oracle CRS stack.
10
After googling this topic, I found I have to check this first below
This particular case is caused by the OS init system does not working.
" Failure at final check of Oracle CRS stack.10" means CRS daemon did not startup during 600 seconds period.In the root.sh script, it adds CRS related entry in /etc/inittab, run "init q" and expect 3 CRS related daemon processes to start, eg:
init.cssd
init.crsd
init.evmd
With init system problem, none of these daemon processes are spawned, this causes CRS process startup failure as they rely on the CRS daemon processes to start first.
This can be verified by adding a simple entry in /etc/inittab:
test:2:once:/usr/bin/echo "HELLO TEST" > /tmp/test.log
run "init q" as root user. If the init is working, then there should be a file /tmp/test.log generated.
According to above I am not able to generate this file.

Oracle 10.2.0.4 I belive the following query is incorrect in my opinion. (there is an index on col but NULLS are ignored?
SELECT COUNT(*) from <TABLE>
where col in (null,'a','b','c') this works (no errors) and returns pretty quick. However I think the correct query would be SELECT COUNT(*) from <TABLE> where col IS NULL OR col in ('a','b','c') This one takes a long time. As I see it it does a table scan for NULL part and uses the index for the rest as the index cannot be used for NULL values. explanation on this, especially why Oracle accepts the first query "where col in (null,'a','b','c')" without any issue.

My task is to test a field in a certain database. We shall refer to the field as ship_to. There is an algorithm for which the field ship_to is populated and higher up in the algorithm, a variable we shall call X is created. The algorith states that I should assign the variable to ship_to unless X is = -1. If X is = -1, the algorithm continues with multiple joins and assignments. What would be the best way to go about coding this solution. There are 4 individual paths. I have only described the first path, but they are similiar in structure. I was thinking of using either Case's or decodes?The field ship_to is a number. I have already created a statement to test the sum of the Target, but now I need to test the entire algorithm to see if it too sums the Target.

I am trying to add a not null constraint on a collection for testing. It not allowed null values as below
pointers@ORCL> declare
2 type test_type is table of number not null;
3 t_test test_type;
4 begin
5 t_test := test_type(2,4,null); --null is being added
6 dbms_output.put_line('Type variable is initialized and the first element value is '||t_test(1));
[code]....
But what I observed is, i can add, null elements by using 'EXTEND' routine though 'not null' constraint is used for that type.
The below is the example.
pointers@ORCL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 declare
2 type test_type is table of number not null;
3 t_test test_type;
4 begin
5 t_test := test_type(2,4);

I am testing nested blocks, but my logic is apparently not correct.
I am running this script:
DECLARE
v_one number(1) := 1;
v_two number(1) := 2;
[Code]....
I receive the output from only one of the nested blocks:
bad
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL>
I understand that I don't need nested blocks for the example above, but this was just a condensed version of what I'm trying to do. I think nesting blocks will be easier to read and maintain, instead of having a huge CASE statement.
How can I execute only the nested block for which the condition is true and ignore the nested blocks that follow?
Are nested blocks not the correct answer here? Should I be looking at invoking procedures/functions instead?

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:
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL Level 1
ORA-06553: PLS-801: Internal error [56327]
Is it possible to clone my testing DB from X86 to X64 using DBCA clonic templates?

We are currently replacing all public database links with private db links in our prod environment. The requirement is
1) private db link name should be same as public
2) Need to create and test out private db links before we can drop public db links.
How can we test out private db links while public db links are still there with the same name?
when I execute SELECT * FROM DUAL@DBLINK from user who created this private db link, which db link it will be using- public or private?

i am testing a proc after tuning it but the problem is, it is taking a very very less time which it shouldn't. I know that it is because of the buffer cache and the shared pool. that why i need to clean the cache to retest it.
I cannot bounce the database as other schemas are part of it. so is there any way to clean the cache for that particular schema i.e bouncing any particular schema(i know that the term is not appropriate).

i install oracle 10g on linux on perform the following step but my database is not auto start with the machine
Automatic startup and shutdown oracle on linux Oracle database server provides two scripts to configure automatic database startup and shutdown process.
The scripts are,
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut
Now let's look at unix level script. When a unix machine boots it runs scripts beginning with Snnname in /etc/rc3.d.
-Here the number nn indicates the order in which these scripts will be run. The name just indicates the function of the script.
In the same way shutdown scripts are named as Knnname which are run from /etc/rc0.d.
If we want that Oracle is the last program that is automatically started, and it is the first to be shutdown then we will name the startup and shutdown scripts on OS like /etc/rc3.d/S99oracle and /etc/rc0.d/K01oracle respectively.
The database script dbstart and dbora will be called from OS script /etc/rc3.d/S99oracle and /etc/rc0.d/K01oracle respectively.
Note that dbstart and dbshut take each SID, in turn, from the /etc/oratab file and startup or shutdown the database.
Automate Startup/Shutdown of Oracle Database on Linux
Step 01: Be sure that oratab file is correct and complete.
Check for oratab file either in /etc/oratab or in /var/opt/oracle/oratab.
Database entries in the oratab file have the following format:
$ORACLE_SID:$ORACLE_HOME:Y
Here Y indicates that the database can be started up and shutdown using dbstart/dbshut script.
If in my database there is two database named arju and arjudup then my oratab file will contain the entry like,
arju:/var/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:Y
arjudup:/var/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:Y
where /var/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 is the $ORACLE_HOME of my database.
Step 02: Create a script to call dbstart and dbshut. In this example I will create one script that will do both startup and shutdown operation. I will name this script as dbora and will be placed in '/etc/init.d'.
a) Login as root.
b) Change directories to /etc/init.d
c) Create a file called dbora and chmod it to 750.
# touch dbora
# chmod 750 dbora
d)Edit the dbora file and make the contents of it like below.
