I am planning to migrate to 11.2.0.2.0 . My present DB version is 9.2.0.6.0 64bit on solaris 5.10 and my present character set is US7ASCII.
I want to keep the provision for non-english data too, though currently my DB is storing only English language. oracle recommended to use unicode in 11g AL32UTF8.Does it support smart characters. what are the pros/cons. other character set...
Have an issue where after several months, our Oracle database has stopped choosing an index.
Here's some background information:
For the sake of simplification, the table has two key fields, SITE and ID, and the table is partitioned by SITE. Since the query is doing an ORDER BY ID DESC, we had to create a function-based DESC index as well as a regular index to convince the database to choose the index:
INDEX_1: SITE Asc, ID Asc
INDEX_2: SITE Desc, ID Desc
So when the index is chosen the showplan displays INDEX RANGE SCAN DESCENDING on INDEX_1
Now, after several months where the index was being chosen for all 4 SITEs, the index only works for 3 of the 4 SITEs.
And for 1 of the SITEs it shows 'TABLE ACCESS FULL'.
Strangely, we created another instance of the database (a byte for byte image) for troubleshooting purposes, with the same database engine version (but different OS version) and the index is being chosen for that new instance. Of course there's an explaination for this, but it's beyond my comprehension as to why you have an exact image with a different behavior.
Here's what Oracle version:
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.7.0 - Production
CORE9.2.0.7.0Production
TNS for Solaris: Version 9.2.0.7.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 9.2.0.7.0 - Production
By the way, HINTS are not an option since the application that executes this query doesn't allow us to modify the SQL.
This is a vendor app and some times the dynamic sql will work great. Sometimes - not so much. There is something that is telling the optimizer to use an incorrect index.
1) Is there a memory setting I can use that optimizer determine the correct index to use?
2) How do I figure out what influenced the optimizer's decision to choose a particular index?
how do we know database character set is either single character set or multi character set?
While changing character-set from AL32UTF8 to WE8MSWIN1252 got "ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set".
Below are steps taken to resolve the issue -
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252;
i got this error: ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set
below are the commands executed by me:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
SQL> CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA;
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE WE8MSWIN1252;
SQL> SHUTDOWN;
SQL> STARTUP;
SQL> QUIT;
And its working...
I have not done it in proper order. Neither have done ccsscan. Still, no user reported any issues. Do my changes truncated the data?
I'm planning to upgrade a small database (~150GB) from 10.2.0.3 on windows 2003 23bit to 11.2.0.3 RAC on Linux 5.8.The database contains oracle spatial too. A suitable method and link to document to be followed.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently performed an upgrade on a new server from oracle 10gr2 to oracle 11gr2 (11.2.0.3).
I take the rman backup from oracle 10g server and restore it on new server where I installed oracle 11gr2.
But on my previous oracle 10gr2 server I enabled the auditing. After doing successful upgrade now when I try to login with any user except sys I receive the following error:
SQL> conn scott/tiger
ERROR:
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-00904: "OBJ$EDITION": invalid identifier
ORA-02002: error while writing to audit trail
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-00904: "OBJ$EDITION": invalid identifier
I got the workaround by setting the parameter audit_trail=FALSE (Previous value was DB_EXTENDED) .But I want my auditing to be enabled as per y requirements.
is the upgrade patch the same for standard edition and enterprise edition or there are two separate patches?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to insert a character from the extended ascii character set. Specifically, there's a company that has an accented e (�) in the name. Right now, the company name doesn't have the e at all, accent or no accent. So I'm trying to do an update, something like
update table1 set company_name='blah�" where company='blah'
It runs, but doesn't do the update. Even when I try to forcefully do an insert (instead of an update) I get nowhere; the accented is simply dropped. So the basic question is, how do you insert extended ascii characters into oracle?
I have one string 'SWAP_20120224_MEGAMART_MAR_Sales.csv'

I am using C++ OCI LIB, to insert some report data from remote OCI client to oracle 11 server. This data is read by another process to create the report.The DB CHARSET is UTF-8. But the report tool expects the data to be ISO08859-1 encoded. So while inserting the data into the database i specify the following LANG and CHARSET for my table colulmn in client:
The TARGET DB CHARSET is UTF-8
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
size_t csid = 871; // UTF-8
OCIAtrSet((void *) bnd1p, (ub4) OCI_HTYPE_BIND,
*(void *)&csid*,
(ub4) 0,
(ub4)OCI_ATTR_CHARSET_ID, errhp);
This solution works for almost every case of ASCII and Extended ASCII Charest but we are facing issues if we have few specific characters to be inserted.f we are trying to insert single beta character [β] through client, the data goes empty to the column.
Beta Character details:
DEC OCT HEX BIN Symbol Description
223 337 DF 11011111 ß Latin small letter sharp s - ess-zed
DB Output after insert single β:
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)
---------------------------
But if the string is *"ββ"* everything work fine:
DB Output for "ββ":
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)

I am going to upgrade database from 11.1.0.7 to 11.2.0.3
1) If compatible is set to 10.2.0 in 11.2.0.3, will it work ?
2) If compatible set to maximum level, will it affect our application ?
3) Whether any code related problem occurred after upgrading like PL/SQL codes ?
We are planning to upgrade our database from Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bi to Oracle Standard Edition 11g . We also have oracle apex installed on Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bi database with oracle apex 3.1
No our plan to upgrade the database and oracle apex to 4.2. Since Oracle Enterprise Edition is licensing is very expensive we though of buying standard edition and upgrade to this version.
can we upgrade the oracle database from enterprise edition to latest standard edition?

Need certified os and versions for oracle db 10gr2
After many tries of upgrade'ing oracle I decided to make backup of my database and then remove 11.2.0.1 and install 11.2.0.3 to recover db. Unfortunately I am not sure how should I perform restoration.I backed up data by calling RMAN> backup database include current controlfile;

I am looking for for exact steps for migration. The important question ist:
-- If we migrate from 10g to 11g, do we need addition (more) CPU's as currently we have?
-- Do wee need more powerful HW.
I am trying to come up with a plan for an upgrade that is needed for a server I maintain. It is a Windows 2003 32bit running Oracle 10.2.0.3 on old Hardware. It also has two obscure 3rd party applications that are running on it that directly access the database. These applications are supported by off site consultants.
My initial plan was to Create a Windows 2008 R2 Virtual Server and install the same version of Oracle 10.2.0.3. Using Rman clone the database to the new server. Have the consultants come in and get the applications working. Once everything in the new environment seems to be working fine, run RMAN again and reclone the database to have all the latest data. Then at a later time upgrade the database to 11g 32bit. Virtually no downtime and we could spend all the time we needed getting the applications working and testing the new environment.
The plan is dead right of the bat though because I realize 10.2.0.3 is not supported by Windows 2008 R2. I really did not want to add an Oracle DB upgrade into the mix at the same time. Just because their are so many changes from the old environment to the new that I want to break this down into manageable chunks. And I can maybe get by with 1 day of down time.
So now I am looking at installing 11g on my Virtual Server, Clone the database, upgrade the database, have the consultants come in and get the applications working. All the while we are down. If we run into any problems, which you always do, it just completely blows the schedule.
I need to upgrade our current system 10.2.0.5 (non Asm) to 11.2.0.3(ASM) on the same host.
So a few options : install ASM on current 10.2.0.5, create volumes etc and shift DB into ASM
upgrade to 11.2.0.3 GI - standalone
upgrade DB to 11.2.0.3
install 11.2.0.3 GI, configure ASM and run against 10.2.0.5
DB upgrade DB to 11.2.0.3
The DB upgrade has to come last I've been told.

I'm planning to upgrade an existing 10.2.0.4 Standard Edition database to 11.2.0.3 Enterprise Edition and have a related question after getting a little uncertain looking at the MOS note .
"How to Convert Database from Standard to Enterprise Edition ? [ID 117048.1]"
Do I ?:
1. Install 10.2.0.4 EE Home and convert my 10g database from SE to EE, and then install 11.2.0.3 EE Home and upgrade the database.
or can I?:
2. Install 11.2.0.3 EE home and do the upgrade directly from 10.2.0.4 SE to 11.2.0.3 EE
I am trying to upgrade database from 9.2.0.7 to 10.2.0 in my test server. Here are the steps i am planning to do.
1. Export user data of production, Import in test db(ABC) using Destroy=Y Fromuser,touser parameter( this step just to refresh old test data)
2. Install 10g db, Use DBUA Utility of 10g to start upgrade>select 9i database which i want to upgrade
3. follow DBUA instruction ..create datafile paths, init.ora file, tnsnames,listener... same as the existing setup i have of 9i(so i can make replica of 9i in 10g)
question: I have another database(xyz) in test server its also in 9i, I don't want to upgrade that for now. so do i need to use one listener /tnasnames file of 10g and include setting of 9i in that 10g file ?
How to manage init,tnasnames,listener files setting in 2 db versions . Is there anything else i need to do to perform upgrade 9i-10g ? or its all ?
I will install just 10g database will import full export of 9i db. if i can do full import in 10g or should i just go for fromuser, tuser option to import? i believe for that i need to create datafiles, user,grant in new 10g db. I am not sure which option is best to perform 10g upgrade?
