• Question about patch #8947667

  Hi all
  
  EBS 12.1.1
  RDBMS 11.1.0.7.0
  o/s: oracle enterprise linux
  
  I apply the #8947667 patch to fix a problem.
  I have a few questions about reading me this patch:
  
  1. it says to use admsi.pl if im not using adpatch to install this patch?
  2. in the post-installation, it says check MoS #145837.1 and apply pre - req.
  In the table below, I do not see r12.1.1, so I guess I have not all the patches to be applied?
  
  Clarification, I do the follow-up in that order?
  Apply patch #8947667
  Run DataInstall
  Run hrglobal.drv
  
  
  Thank you

  1. it says to use admsi.pl if im not using adpatch to install this patch?

  Run 'admsi.pl' to generate your specific instance installation instruction. You should always use adpatch to apply this hotfix.

  2. in the post-installation, it says check MoS #145837.1 and apply pre - req.
  In the table below, I do not see r12.1.1, so I guess I have not all the patches to be applied?

  Fix.

  Clarification, I do the follow-up in that order?
  Apply patch #8947667
  Run DataInstall
  Run hrglobal.drv

  Fix.

  Thank you

• R12.1.3 - General question about patching of intermediate level

  R12.1.3 running on RH Linux 5.8.  Just applied PSU to the 11.2.0.3 database and now by looking at the Jan 2014 CPU refers to

  Oracle Fusion Middleware 10.1.3.5 and patch 16802091 .

  Now, in my last attempt to clogging, I made the correction to the database but I only did the correction of Middleware.

  If I look at it is seems to be a process quite simple patch but I'm not sure what about my setup $ORACLE_HOME.

  The Guide says to make sure that the $ORACLE_HOME of environment variable is defined but that normally gets together at TOOLS 10.1.2.

  Do I need to put it to 10.1.3?

  If I do that then opatch is set incorrectly.

  Also can I assume by default my 10.1.3 Oracle_Home is 10.1.3.5 or how to check that?

  If the patch is for 10.1.3 ORACLE_HOME, then you must set sourcing $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/.env file.

  Once you source this file env, question "echo $ORACLE_HOME" and he must return the ORACLE_HOME 10.1.3.

  For opatch, if you issue "what opatch" then it should point to $10.1.3 ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch

  Thank you

• Question about orders in single-user mode

  Hi all, I am a super novice of mac system.

  I searched the web and the apple community, and I have not found much information on how to use the single user mode.

  All suggested link to read and learn about the single-user mode and terminal?

  What you trying to accomplish?

  Single user mode is a shell capable of functioning when things on the hardware have problems.

  It is not a fully functional shell, it is intended for solving problems.

  Terminal on the other hand maybe you want to explore. There are many ex http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/introduction-to-the-mac-os-x-command-line resources

• Questions about connecting to a host ESX 3.5 to vCenter 4.1

  I need to migrate 7 hosts 3.5.x ESX ESX 4.1. I did not have a test environment and will work with live on committed production systems (not clustered). vCenter 4.1 and two new 4.1 ESX hosts have been configured to handle live Vmotion (cluster will come later). I activated the license point server towards the old VirtualCenter 2.5 in the hope of being able to disconnect a host ESX 3.5 live the old virtualcenter and reconnect to the new vCenter 4.1 without rebooting the host ESX 3.5. VUM is not an option at the present time, so I intend to do a full install base upgrade.

  (1) I know that I can disconnect the ESX 3.5 server the old virtualcenter without problem. My first question is, if I try to join the new vCenter (config pointing to the old license server) box of 3.5 will be vCenter 4.1 need to install the new management agent in the box of 3.5 and therefore require the host restarts?

  (2) if the agent of 4.1 management is not installed on the host ESX 3.5, its virtual machines can be migrated (cold) to one of the new servers?

  I should add that the licenses are not a problem, we are migrating to the latest keys but have sufficient old licenses to manage the transition. The VMs are on SAN LUNs that are visible to guests old and new.

  Especially, I want to know what to expect through are exactly what will to restart is required and have not been able to locate that particular point.

  Thanks in advance.

  When we went from 3.5 to vSphere, is that big of a deal.  Just disconnected the vCenter server host and updated the vCenter keeping the existing license server, and then re-attached to the new Victoria Cross.  It will establish links with the new 4.1 software, but it shouldn't require a reboot at all.  I did mine with all virtual machines out of it, but I think you can do all this live... Since a little while I did this upgrade

• Question about disabling a single button in a group of radio buttons

  I'm working with Acrobat version 9.5.5.  I am trying to create a PDF form to fill live rather than on a web form.  Most of it's over, but I have a problem that I can't solve.

  At the beginning of the form, I have a group of radio buttons.  The three options in the group are 'Premium Member', 'Réguiler' and "Membership in decline at the moment."

  If someone checks the "composition of decline" there is a second group of radio buttons later in the form which has a number of options.  One of these options is for members to ask only to send the registration form for the annual banquet.  Only members may attend the annual banquet, if I don't want non-members to have the opportunity to select this radio button.  On the other hand, I don't want non-members have the opportunity to select other options in the radio button group.  In short, if someone chooses 'Decline membership at that time' I don't turn off only one option in a group of radio buttons later.

  A web form is not an option at this time, and of course, I am brand new to javascript, so I don't know where to start for this script.

  You can add a script to the mouse event to the top of the box in question in the second group that checks to see if it is selected, and it checks the value of the first group. If it is a third party, so don't let the choice.

  For example, you can use the following script the mouse to the top of the option button in the second group, and it will prevent it from being selected:

  Get the value of the first group of radio button

  var v1 = getField("Membership").value;

  Get the value of this option button

  var v2 = event.target.value;

  Do not let this option button to select if the membership has been denied

  If (v1 = 'Decline' & v2! == 'Off') {}

  Event.Target.Value = 'Off ';

  App.Alert ("message of error goes here.", 1);

  }

  Here, the value of exports (aka Button value, or what they call it now) is set to "Deny" for the corresponding button in the first group ("membership"), then you need to replace those with whatever you use.

• Question about support of Ubuntu host platforms

  According to the user's guide, the latest version of vmware server-supported Ubuntu is 8.04, which becomes a bit long in the tooth.

  -Are there a plan in the near future to support a newer version of ubuntu?

  -people run vmware server 2 on the latest versions of ubuntu without any significant problems?

  Hello

  You must run vmware server 2 on Ubuntu 8.04 without problems. It works very well because it is fully supported.

  Anyway people running vmware server 2 on Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10. It is not supported and sometimes some questions (weird), but it should work.

  If you want to install vmware server on ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10, I recommend you visit the "VMWare server 2 install problems" section in this post.

  Hope this helps

• Three questions about patching using opatch

  Version: 10 gr 2, 11g
  OPERATING SYSTEM: AIX 6.1
  
  1. in a Non-RAC environment, when you use the utility opatch, should I stop the instance connecting the ORACLE_HOME which is be patched?
  
  2. we have an instance of oracle 11 g running for a test OLTP environment. Datawarehousing guys wanted an instance 11g in this machine. So I used DBCA to create another data base of the ORACLE_HOME of the OLTP database. Inti.ora for DSS and OLTP settings are different, that's why I had to create a separate instance. Then, when I use the opatch to apply a patch, the changes will be reflected on OLTP databases both our SSD. Right?

  On Re: game patch upgradation Opatch vs
  
  Rober says geir
  
  Running sums opatch is used (for example 10.2.0.4.0 to 10.2.0.4.1)
  For upgrades (e.g. 10.1 to 10.2) so YES is used (not opatch)
  
  What does the term rollup ?

  1. Yes, you should stop running on this House instances. The Readme.txt should confirm this, and when you run opatch it will ask you if you stop.

  2 opatch patches only the ORACLE_HOME, which is used by the two databases. See the patch Readme.txt if there is no action database (which must be run on two databases)

  3. the little bugs are corrected by small Tufts. To avoid having to apply many small plots Oracle groups in large plots that include several small plots. Often, you can use the parameter "napply" to opatch when you apply these hotfixes.

  Always read the documentation for patch before applying it to be sure you understand what it does.
  Always run the patch on a test environment before running it on PROD.

• A question about patching in windows 2003

  Hi all
  
  I am trying to upgrade OEM Grid Control, 10.2.0.2 to 10.2.0.5 on Windows 2003 server.
  In one of the reading me documenations says...
  
  «For Microsoft Windows target machines, patch via this method requires wget.exe in the PATH environment variable and to be present in the base directory of Oracle Management Agent (ORACLE_HOME/bin).» If wget.exe is not in the PATH of the target machine, add the path and make sure that it is present in the home directory of the Oracle Management Agent (ORACLE_HOME/bin). "Bounce the Management Agent for the execution of the following:
  
  What I do here.
  Let me how to set the PATH environment, (the exact way to do it, aware of the fact that, don't want to ruin the last part of the implementation, so need your help), also let me know what else ask me these lines above.
  
  Your help is greatly appreciated.
  Kind regards

  I don't know where you have wget.exe but we will assume that you have it on c:\software\wget.exe, in your PATH variable, you must add c:\software

  So the new value of your PATH variable must be: C:\Oracle\agent10g\jlib; C:\Oracle\agent10g\bin; C:\Oracle\oms10g\bin; C:\Oracle\oms10g\jlib; C:\Program Files\HP\NCU;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;c:\software

• Question about hosting a SERVER BUKKIT

  Original title:

  I heard recently that MICROSOFT bought MOJANG so I have a question about minecraft

  I am an a BUKKIT SERVER hosting and I can not get money on the server I can not make/ender_man_killer 9999999 cause he said I have enough, BUT I'm the owner of pay

  No idea. All that I know is, I read there were some concerns of servers BUKKIT peacekeeping under the

  It is only a community forum. It is doubtful that anyone with responsibilities to the monopoly$ oft running Minecraft servers will see your message, so unless a member of the forum, which has been involved in Minecraft, and BUKKIT servers comes, you'd probably better on a forum dedicated to Minecraft.

• Question about installing standalone Agent in patched environment

  Hi all

  I have a question about the installation of an autonomous Agent of ODI, some information on the situation: I have Studio ODI 11.1.1.7.0 installed and configured. Everything worked fine until we have improved our environment from planning to 11.1.2.3.500 patch.  We had to apply the patch 18687916 for ODI solve some problems, but everything worked well again after that.  Now I need to install an autonomous agent to run scenarios in a batch, the agent will be on the same server as the ODI studio.  My question is can I run the installer and only select the autonomous agent then reapply the patch 18687916 or do I need to get out the patch 18687916 first, or something totally different? 

  Hello

  I think you should restore the 18687916 patch and then install the standalone agent, then patch 18687916 it.

  But wait answer of the guru.

  In my case, I did the thing above, and it works very well if it was my test environment.

  Thank you

• Question about multiple accounts on a single Machine

  Hello

  I have a question about the ability of the creative cloud to be used with multiple users. If we have computers in a lab that are shared machines and each student must buy their own creative cloud for its use. How to set the connection and activation of the account of each student?

  I'm new to creative cloud as well as it has been my understanding as long as its operation...

  Although it is branded as cloud base, the software is downloaded and installed locally

  Students between their Code to activate the application they wish to use...

  This model works if the student is using the software on their own machines, but how does it work if several students with multiple accounts share the same computer?

  If we install the software on the machines for them, is it possible for students to simply enable and disable the software as they go or is this a model that simply does not work.

  Thanks for any help you can provide,

• install vCSA single host and manage this host of "inside".

  Hello

  This is probably a stupid question, but I have found no reference or information about it:

  is it possible to install vCSA on a single host, which will be then handled by the same vCSA?

  background: there is only a single physical server available.

  are there disadvantages with such a configuration, and if there is, which could be problematic? same starting the server cannot, because it does not find the vCSA server to validate its license?

  I know that an update manager will not be usable, as the upgrade of the host, all virtual machines must be turned off and the host is in maintenance mode. This isn't a problem, as a manual upgrade of a single server is really easy.

  Best regards

  Mayr Oskar

  I agree with Gortee about the DVS, because that would be a factor limiting.  Since it is a single host it is useless to DVS anyway (unless you need the ability to scrutinize traffic in native mode).  I use the full vCenters blown on my main data centers, but I have a bunch runs exactly as you mentioned (about 60 sites with single host + VCSA + vStandard Switch).  No problems.  Good thing is that you can define the order of auto start since you do not HA.

• Questions about the upgrade from 4.1 to 5.1

  I posted the following to the thread in the forum of Vsphere upgrade, and in five days I got ZERO responses. Perhaps more here and even here is the wrong place to post things, or maybe I'm not questions easily answer. I'll post it here too, since it mainly Virtual Center, I think. Maybe someone can help me or tell me what is the problem with my announcement that allows to go unanswered. Here we go:

  I'm about to upgrade my little (1 4 host ESX and Virtual Center) environment vSphere 4.1 and 5.1.  My database to the virtual Center lives on a separate SQL server 2008R2 server. My virtual Center Server is virtual, if that matters. I have upgraded my licenses and read the documentation, to try to formulate a plan that escapes enough causing any downtime for my virtual machines.

  I am designing a series of steps that are all pretty low, and such that each step does not harm anything, whereas if I have problems, I can take my time to solve. Then, when this step is stable, I can continue to the next step. I want to tell you what I have in mind, ask a question here and there and hope you can report errors that I make and answer my questions. The big picture is:

  1 Virtual Center update and give him a few days to show me any problem before doing anything else.

  2. upgrade to a host ESX 4.1 5.1 ESXi. Convince me things are okay, before you do more.

  3. put to level the other three 4.1 ESX hosts. Make sure that everything is fine.

  4 create new LUNS, formatted with the new VMFS, move my VM to them and remove the old one.

  If there is nothing wrong with this basic plan, please let me know.

  More details and questions:

  Question: The docs say my Virtual Center Server, under the SSO, the inventory service and the virtual Center Server, will need TEN GIGABYTES of RAM.  Is this true? It seems insane to me.

  Question: Can I install on my Virtual Server 4.1 single signon Center without DANGER?  In other words, its installation will prevent Server 4.1 virtual work center? I hope I can, because it is a new feature that I have trouble with. I don't want to get into a situation where my old virtual server Center does not work, and I can't get the new work.

  Question: The VI 4.1 client can talk to Virtual Center 5.1? The VI Client 5.1 can talk to Virtual Center 4.1? I hope that the answer to one of the people is 'yes '.

  Step 1: Create a backup of my virtual Center VM (with vRanger connection, if this is important) and a backup of my SQL database.

  Step 2: Install single Signon. Here is where I hope that this does not stop 4.1 virtual work center.

  Step 3: Upgrade the inventory Service and Virtual Center to 5.1

  Step 4: Install VI Client 5.1 on the VM virtual Center and on my desk from which I usually manage my environment.

  Step 5: Wait I'm comfortable that everything is fine. It is perhaps a day or two (or more).

  Question: How can I spend my hosts for maximum security? I'd rather put a DVD in the drive and do it from the console, unless this is not a good way.

  Question: Before I update a host, should I remove the fiber channel cables, so he can't see my VMFS LUNS? I think I read that somewhere, and it sounds like a good thing to do, even if I do not have.

  Step 6: Upgrade a host ESX 4.1 5.1 ESXi. Move a couple of virtual machines essential to it and he give a day or two to settle.

  Step 7: Upgrade the other three ESX host.

  Step 8: Wait until I'm really, really comfortable with things.

  Step 9: Create a new LUN VMFS5, migrate my VMs to them over time and remove the old one.

  I would greatly appreciate all advice and attention that you may have.

  Question: The docs say my Virtual Center Server, under the SSO, the inventory service and the virtual Center Server, will need TEN GIGABYTES of RAM.  Is this true? It seems insane to me.

  If your environment is small you can run all these in one and ofcouse if you execute all these in a server you need more RAM... There is no limit.

  Question: Can I install on my Virtual Server 4.1 single signon Center without DANGER?  In other words, its installation will prevent Server 4.1 virtual work center? I hope I can, because it is a new feature that I have trouble with. I don't want to get into a situation where my old virtual server Center does not work, and I can't get the new work.

  normally if you think only in terms of scalability, it is good to have separate these things... He is sure no questions evey thing won't work if you install it on the same server also.

  Question: The VI 4.1 client can talk to Virtual Center 5.1? The VI Client 5.1 can talk to Virtual Center 4.1? I hope that the answer to one of the people is 'yes '.

  The VI 4.1 client can talk to Virtual Center 5.1? No, but talk about Client 5.1 Virtual Center 4.1

  Step 1: Create a backup of my virtual Center VM (with vRanger connection, if this is important) and a backup of my SQL database.

  Step 2: Install single Signon. Here is where I hope that this does not stop 4.1 virtual work center.

  Step 3: Upgrade the inventory Service and Virtual Center to 5.1

  Step 4: Install VI Client 5.1 on the VM virtual Center and on my desk from which I usually manage my environment.

  Step 5: Wait I'm comfortable that everything is fine. It is perhaps a day or two (or more).

  these steps are ok

  Question: How can I spend my hosts for maximum security? I'd rather put a DVD in the drive and do it from the console, unless this is not a good way.

  BLI, or DRAC suites method what ever you... very well.

  Question: Before I update a host, should I remove the fiber channel cables, so he can't see my VMFS LUNS? I think I read that somewhere, and it sounds like a good thing to do, even if I do not have.

  Installing esxi will not hurt of thing... to the old VMFS... It will ask to keep or to format the old vMFS... BUT I prefer to remove the cables... BECAUSE we are humans...

  Step 6: Upgrade a host ESX 4.1 5.1 ESXi. Move a couple of virtual machines essential to it and he give a day or two to settle.

  no need... . If the hardware is on the HCL, I mean the firmware/driver etc... for the esx is on the HCL, then no problem...

  Step 7: Upgrade the other three ESX host.

  Step 8: Wait until I'm really, really comfortable with things.

  Step 9: Create a new LUN VMFS5, migrate my VMs to them over time and remove the old one.

  assign the new LUN and create VMFS and migrate... It'S her!
