• Silverlight will not uninstall because said windows package installer patch can not be opened. Someone knows what to do? Thank you.

  Hi, I deleted wrongly silverlight all programs trying to uninstall it to get a better version of netflix.  Now when I try to uninstall it the right way, I get a message from the windows installer saying "this patch package could not be opened.  "Check that the patch exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows setup hotfix package.

  Hello

  It seems that you need to manually restore the "1705401" patch and then install the Patch "20423535'. "

  You must install (patch (be sure to download the patch for the version 11.1.1.7.7 and not 11.1.1.7.0) '1705401' on top of the Patch 20423535 (SOA Bundle Patch 11.1.1.7.7).)

• 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

• Problem example application v207 Image 11.1.1.6.5 turnkey editing game patches

  I use the sample application v207 pre-built image provided as a demo/bin to sand Oracle Linux. I was hoping the patch to 11.1.1.6.5 to crush a few bugs, even though I'm relatively new to the patching process OBIEE. I'm running into errors when you try to apply the 1st patch of the game (14696072). It seems he is trying to auto-restaurer one or more previous patches, as expected, but these rollback backup directories no longer exist. Maybe they have been removed from before the image in order to save storage space?
  
  I searched the entire disk for traces of patch 14223977 , because there are references to this patch with errors in the log opatch. There is no such thing as the directory, he's trying to copy the files. I found two directories below that had references to this patch, but does not include any subdirectories that OPatch is looking for:
  
  / Home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1/cfgtools/opatch/14223977_Jul_02_2012_16_48_19 /.
  / Home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1/inventory/oneoffs/14223977 /.
  
  So I was wondering if someone else tried to do these updates on this particular image and that he has found a solution. Maybe, it won't be possible if the files backup or restore to previous patches are missing actually. I'm kinda new to use opatch, so it is very possible, that is not the image, but I admittedely that is missing something. Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you Rick.  The trick was to read the whole readme.  Once I have completed the following, Essbase started as expected.

  Copy the files located in your bin directory:

  Copy all the files from DRIVE\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\localized\\bin for DRIVE\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\bin.

• States of the buttons on a master slide

  I want to put the navigation of the full course on more than one slide master.  I have read that you can only use active forms in the form of buttons on a model of slides, I could work with, but how do you declare for these buttons?  Ideally, I would like to text buttons since this is what I'll do, but that doesn't seem possible...

  Is there a solution for this?

  Buttons of form could have States on master slides in 8 but this feature has been

  lost in the CP9 and is not always restored after two patches. I am very sad

  on it, he connected immediately when 9 is released more than 1 year ago

  but it seems not important enough. You face two old States

• Using the SYS account

  Dear all,

  My database is Oracle 10 g on Windows platform.

  Due to certain requirements (DBAs) checks must use our accounts indivisual instead of SYS.

  I want to confirm if I assign SYSDBA, s/n, RESOURCES, CONNECT to a user it will get all the privileges that the SYS user have? I think I will be fine.

  The second condition is now, if I get all the privileges in my own account who is saying "IMRAN" than will be using the SYS account. It can be disabled?

  Thank you and best regards.

  SYS cannot be disabled.  Cannot delete SYSDBA privilege.  Any person who is granted the SYSDBA privilege and made a connection with "AS SYSDBA" actually connects under the SYS, not his named account account.

  Therefore,.

  a: I would not grant SYSDBA to named users

  b. I would lock in a safe accessible only by a manager the "oracle" account (and any other account in the OSDBA group)

  c. ask the DBA using the DBA role (or a custom, more restrictive role)

  d. to request the account 'oracle' only for STARTUP, SHUTDOWN, RESTORE/RECOVERY and patch.  (assuming backups are automated scripted jobs)

• R12.1.3 - question on db level cloning and oraInventory

  R12.1.3 on Linux RH 5.8 64-bit.

  I cloned an instance of Prod to go through the application Jan 2014 PSU etc.  It comes to take the DB of 11.2.0.3.5 to 11.2.0.3.9.

  Which seemed to work ok once I understood what I had to do (previous post that revealed that I had to restore a few patches).

  Now, I want to run through this process again and after cloning this instance once more I found that my order "opatch lsinventory" tells me that I'm already patched to the level of the power supply.

  I tried to rebuild my oraInventory via $ORACLE_HOME/oui/bin/attachHome.sh, then ouicli.pl, but in both cases, he tells me that I'm already at 11.2.0.3.9.

  So is this a case of my $ORACLE_HOME is not being rebuilt as part of the update?

  My cloning process is scripted and I use RMAN with a double active command I am running «adcfgclone.pl dbTechStack»  I think these are the relevant entries while I also update fnd_profile_option_values etc. and fnd_concurrent_requests.  Finally, it then executes adautocfg.sh.

  I have to do something more to get an own ORACLE_HOME?  What is my problem?

  Why do you still have files in the former $ORACLE_HOME on the target node?

  Please change inventory_loc "inventory_loc = / app/oracle ', remove all files that belong to this instance (including oraInventory), runs to go ahead with the cloning process (preclone, copy all files, postclone).

  Thank you

  Can you offer me to apply all updates or it is usually to give priority to the security updates? I use Vmware image of HP because my hosts are server blades Proliant.

  How can I start? You have to suggest the quick start guide?

  Update Manager downloads the list of patches available from vmware.com. To configure the frequency of the update of the repository, click on House. Click the Update Manager icon. On the Configuration tab, click Patch download calendar.

  To view the scheduled task Patch download, click Homepage > scheduled tasks > VMware vCenter Update Manager Update to download.

  
  Notes:

  • To manually run this task, right-click the task, click run.

  • When you run the task, see task Download Patch definitions in the these last tasks.

  • If the download Patch definitions task fails, make sure that Update Manager can reach vmware.com. For more information

  To set baselines to the ESX host:

  1. Click home > hosts and Clusters.

  2. Highlight the ESX host, you want to update, and then click the Update Manager .

  3. Click on Attach. Select host patches critical and not critical host patches of baselines, and then click attach.

     Note: to create basic custom lines click home > Update Manager > planning and groups > Create.

  To analyze the ESX host for missing patches on the repository, right-click on the ESX host and click find updates > patches and Extensions > Scan.

  Notes:

  • Scan progress is displayed by The entity of Scan task in the recent tasks.

  • The analysis of the host does not affect running virtual machines.

  • If parsing fails, make sure that the ports between Update Manager and the ESX host is open. For more information, seerequirements of ports network VMware Update Manager (1004543).

  • When the analysis is complete, you will see the number of missing patches on the ESX host. If some patches are missing, you see Compliant.

  To restore the missing patches to the ESX host:

  1. Turn off all the virtual machines or vMotion them to another ESX host.
  2. Place the ESX host in maintenance mode. Right click on the ESX host, choose to enter the Maintenance Modeand click on Yes.
  3. Right-click on the ESX host and choose clean > host patches critical and not critical host patches of baselines, and then click Next.
  4. Choose which updates or patches to install, click Next > Next > Finish.

  Notes:

  • Progress of sanitation are illustrated by the task of the principal remedy in the recent tasks.

  • This task could take some time as Update Manager starts to download the patches to the vmware.com website.

  • If the restore fails, ensure that Update Manager, ESX host, and vmware.com ports are open. For more information, see requirements of ports network VMware Update Manager (1004543).

• The ESX host could restart after complete rehabilitation.

• Cannot start Windows 7 after the conversion of the physical machine

  Hello

  I converted my windows 7 64 bit running physical machine to the virtual machine using converter 5.0. I am running VMWare Workstation 8.0. My physical machine hid the 100 MB boot partition and 90 GB main partition. During the conversion, I don't have an option to select a hidden partition, nor did I want in my virtual machine. Conversion failed with the following message (planned):

  Unable to find the system volume, reconfiguration is not possible.

  Then, I started the virtual machine using the Windows DVD and selected the option "repair". Once I arrived, I used diskpart to make my active primary partition and then followed the steps in this KB http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1037507 to fix everything including BCD. Once this was done, I used converted to reconfigure the virtual computer, and this time he succeeded. Everything was good and as expected up to that point. Now, when I start the VM, I get by BIOS init and then I get a black screen - no messages at all and he vm it is here without doing anything. I tried to fix it again and everything seems good (checked all the information using diskpart, bootrec and bcdedit so that automated repair) - everything seems to be in order, but the black screen is all I see when I try to start.

  Any help to guide me to this point is very popular figure.

  Thank you

  Andrey

  Disk2vhd create a vhd file
  Starwinds V2V converter converts the virtual hard disk into a vmdk
  This vmdk is assigned to a new virtual machine

• Question of OPatch with OBIEE

  Hi, I am applying the 11.1.1.6.4 recent patches, but I am running with no easy way to get more space. I know that when OPatch is used, it creates backup copies that can be used to restore. I patched this server several times (11.1.1.6.0 to 6.1 to 6.2 6.2 BP1, now at 11.1.1.6.4).
  
  Is there an easy way to delete all the old files (assuming that I don't roll back)? If so, where are they stored?
  
  Thank you!
  Scott

  Hello

  Please see note: how to avoid disk full questions because OPatch backups take large amount of disk space. [550522.1 ID]

  Also be sure to save disk space, you can remove the patch files $ORACLE_HOME/Oracle_BI1 /.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you
  SVS.

• 10.11.3 patch totally destroyed my M Pro how can I restore.

  10.11.3 patch totally destroyed my MacBook Pro! Apps say they are corrupt and don't start, dock 4 (out of 30) shows only apps with generic icons, all other icons are missing, finder blocks just try to list files and folders, how can I restore.

  I cannot start the utilities (dosent exist as most of the applications), unable to access App Store - totally a crew unless I can get rid of this update.

• Anyone know how to restore a patch implementation stage (or patches) in the Update Manager?

  Anyone know if you can draw a patch of staged once it is in the queue to be installed?  I.e. organize you a fix on a host computer, but then you decide that you prefer not to install it.  The documentation does not address this, but it sounds like it could be useful to have.

  Thank you

  Mark

  You do not have to install a patch, simply because it is staged... it will just sit there until this used during a reorganization or the cache is cleared.  If you want to clear the cache, delete files/directories under/var/cache/esxupdate patch (if I remember correctly the path).
