• recommendation of Oracle asmlib or raw for 11g ASM

  looking for best practice note on this subject for different OS such as linux, Solaris and windows? and how to configure?

  looking for best practices note on this subject for different OS like linux, Solaris & windows? & How to configure?

  You're confused raw (raw devices) with "raw + +" (block devices for raw character devices)...

  To explain...

  All devices are 'rough' - even your 'C: drive ' traditional... until what it is mounted by a driver that provides access "cooked the file system.

  Oracle ASM works directly with these raw devices - it must NOT be mounted by a file system driver (ASM can not use it because the camera is locked/used by this other driver). And the raw device does NOT contain a file system (ASM will open this device and destroy).

  So what of the question that "raw is obsolete? It is a device driver very specific on Unix/Linux allowing a character (raw) device be used as a (raw) blocking the device. Why?

  Because on older kernels do not use the direct i/o (RAW) only on (raw) and character devices, block devices. This crude device driver linked a block on a character device device, allowing direct use e/s. And direct i/o is what s/w like file systems of RDBMS and want ASM dealing with raw as oppose to the cooking devices.

  So there is no such notion as ' raw devices versus AsmLib + + ". This is absurd.

  AsmLib is a kernel driver that provides a layer of management for raw devices logical device. The same type of s/w delivered by default under Linux and is called Multipath.

  EMC has their own patented kernel called Powerpath driver which covers essentially the same game featured.

  So to use the raw devices is the standard and the standard with the ASM. The storage array or LUN from the server will be seen by the kernel of the server database as scsi devices. These devices must be put at the disposal of the DSO. There are issues such as multiple I/O paths to the SAN to address. Issues such as consistency in device name. Issues such as ownership of the device and permissions. Etc.

  AsmLib can be used at this address. Is it recommended? Not really because on Linux Multipath is designed to do this work. And she does very well on the clusters of 1000 + node connected to without very seriously. He does what AsmLib and better - with the exception of being able to format a device of ASM with a label header ASM (made by ASM itself anyway to a new disk to a disk group).

  So yes, there's Metalink/MoS notes that proclaim the '+' goodness + AsmLib. But this isn't a prerequisite. It is not recommended by Oracle to use as a replacement for Multipath (none of the best docs of practical Oracle I said that).

  Don't forget that AsmLib is a layer of extra kernel drivers that must be loaded and configured. I don't see the use of myself and we don't use AsmLib on any of our RAC clusters. Multipath is used and it does the job and does it well.

  In our society, we have oracle server on Suse Linux with two instances TETA and TETA201.

  One day on a server broke down, because there is no free space due growing files 'archivelog.

  After that I manually deleted several older archivelog files, but after the reboot, the server error occurs when connecting to the database:

  but it did not work either.
  
  Please guide me how this problem can be solved.

  alert_SID.log file show settings whose default value used to start the DB.
  If you can find in this file of a start of the DB which took place before today,
  Then you can use these lines, values, the parameters to make new pfile & then a new spfile.
  In the future, you should ALWAYS do a manual copy of the spfile, before changing anything

  First of all please do not post details here, its against to oracle interoperability metalink, ID is sufficient for us. Secondly, yes you can, first to save $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emca script like

  CP $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emca $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emca_org

  to change the file number and test

• Oracle not available, ORA-01034 &amp; ORA-27101

  Hi all
  
  OK, I went and he again (messed up). I hope someone can help to guide me out of this, I thought I was doing OK. I'll try to be concise and yet provide enough detail. Thank you in advance for wading in it. I searched this forum and others, I'm not the first with this pair of ORA errors, but other threads did not help me to solve this problem. I'll be crossed this announcement on other forums, but not to areas of discussion here.
  
  Two questions:
  1. that I did wrong, what should I have done before running / after running game patches? (I have the Oracle documentation for the patch, but I got confused/lost in all the information on clusters & other).
  2. What can I do to get it back? (Other that scratch completely and start again, I have seem to be able to perform).
  
  I have a production system currently running on Windows Server 32 10.2.0.5. I created a dump and was re-hosting to a new server to test the upgrade of 3rd request of the party who sits on Oracle (PTC Windchill) the new server running server 2003 64 - bit. I had Oracle 10.2.0.4 installed from a Windchill upgrade previous trial. I ask the 10.2.0.5 patch set on the new server before importing the dump, but now it throws the following errors when I try to connect to sqlplus system / < pwd > @sid:
  
  ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
  ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
  
  How I got here:
  
  a. before you start, I was able to connect to SQL * Plus, 10.2.0.4.0 as system / < pwd > @sid. I dropped the user of PTC Windchill database with waterfall, successfully.
  
  b. in Services window, I stopped OracleServiceWIND, Oracle_HomeTNSListener and OracleDBConsloewind. They are the only Oracle services running.
  
  c. Ran the installer downloaded Patch from Oracle to start YES. ORA-home identified, patch set correctly installed. Log in to the file installActions repors "installing Oracle Database 10 g Release 2 Patch Set 4 was successful." Log file written reports even.
  
  d. open a command window and attempted to sql * more open as a system, has failed with above errors.
  
  e. checked in Services window, all the Oracle services began. Ran > netstat - tcp, tnslistener.exe abnp showed listening on port 1521. See setting Oracle Net Configuration Assistant listener configured on port 1521
  
  f. connected: sys as sysdba, declared 'connected to an instance inactive.' sql > exit
  
  g. ran > lsnrctl status reports, correct version, listener.ora, ~. Newspaper. "Wind" service has 1 instance. Instance "wind", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler for this service...
  
  h. registered in sys as sysdba, declared 'Connected to an idle instance.' Ran > startup open; output report:
  Instance Oracle began.
  Total system global area
  Fixed size
  Variable size
  .. .blah blah...
  Mounted database.
  ORA-01092: ORACLE instance is complete. Disconnection forced
  
  I am at a loss. Services Windows seems to have all my Oracle services running. But I can't connect to SQL * more like the system/pwd@sid that I have always done as a test before you import the dump. Ideas, suggestions?
  
  I thank very you much for your time and the help of a neophyte.
  
  Sincerely,
  Tom

  What document you went through. Can you provide a link? the document must be clearly mentioned this post steps patch must be... After having patched usually you start the database with upgrade to startup and it takes a bit of time to come. After that, you need to stop & restart the database with normal startup command.

• ORA-01034: ORACLE not available

  Hello group,
  
  We have just cloned an Oracle 10.2.0.4 home one he finished successfully (OUIHome1). We have also cloned a 11.1.0.6 on a different House (OUIHome2), after that, we copied an offline backup physical on the server where the houses have been cloned. Now, we put all the environment variables for the 10.2.0.4 House.
  
  ORACLE_BASE = / oracle/app/oracle
  ORACLE_HOME=/Oracle/app/Oracle/product/10.2.0
  ORACLE_SID = dbprd

  Likewise, we have created passwordfile and init
  orapwd file = orapwmefpp entries = pwd = 5 password
  
  However, we are unable to connect to the instance, it shows that these messages on these scenarios:

  Hello

  Please confirm that the default group of the 'oracle' database owner is "dba".

  What happens if you issue the following, you can connect then?

  $ sqlplus / as sysdba

• ORACLE not available ORA-01034

  Try to install the peoplesoft database using windows 2000, oracle 10 g release 2 and peopletools 8.48
  
  When I run the PeopleSoft database configuration wizard, it will fail to run the createdb10.sql script. I get:
  
  CREATE HCM DATA
  *
  ERROR on line 1:
  ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
  
  When I log in sqlplus as sysdba, it tells me that I am connected to an idle instance.
  
  I can start the instance through the start command. I get an error that it cannot find the control file (which is true, the control files have not been generated) but I am able to query tables, for example double.
  
  If I now try to re-run the wizard db (after the first removal system variable ORACLE_SID and vpd.properties file), I get error:
  
  CREATE HCM DATA
  *
  ERROR on line 1:
  ORA-30014: operation supported only in Automatic Undo Management mode
  
  Q: How to work around this error?
  
  Q: why the instance has not started automatically?

  500 MB are obviously not enough... but you can try.
  For your init.ora file, it might want to set db_cache_size, shared_pool_size as low as possible instead of default values.
  In the %ORACLE_HOME%\database you can find an example of init.ora file.

• Oracle 10g Express on Ubuntu problems [sqlplus ORA-01034, ORA-27101]

  Hello!
  
  Trying to correctly install and configure 10g Express version on Ubuntu Linux 8.04 Server without success. I'm a noob Linux and Oracle and tries to install the database under the Project.net service.
  
  I followed installation guide of Oracle Database Express Edition for linux I got from Oracle's Web site.
  
  I installed the deb package with gdebi.. .deb (and later reinstalled with dpkg - i .deb..) as described in the guide. Go 'by the book' I ran /etc/init.d/oracle-xe set up and confirmed the default values. I put the password for the SYS and SYSTEM account. The value DB autostart. I also ran the /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/bin/oracle_env.shand added this line to the file .bashrc. Then, still in the following installation guide, I wanted to make available for remote clients DB and tried to connect to DB at the local level, using the sqlplus command line. Here, the problems begin:

  Enter the user name: System
  Enter the password:
  ERROR:
  ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
  ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
  Linux error: 2: no such file or directory
  ----
  
  I tried all combinations of upper/lower case, sys and system - unable to connect account. Was the normal user, root or oracle user - does not work.
  
  I searched this forum and google for the answer, but none works for me. There have been responses suggesting to change the environment variable ORACLE_SID, logon with the sysdba account, which gives the following:
  ---
  root@TestSrv:/# sqlplus/nolog

  SQL > connect system / [passwd] as sysdba
  ERROR:
  ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

  I really want to do this, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Please note that I am very green in Linux and a complete noob in Oracle.
  
  TNX!

  He has to work.
  But next time, do not forget the password that you type ;-)
