Replication - snaphot/asynchronous

2002-11-15 Thread Eric Richmond
I read that any given object can be in only one replication group.  We already
have SNAPSHOT replication running from Server A to Server B.  Now we want to
set up ASYNCHRONOUS replication to run from Server A to Server C.  How can
that be set up so there isn't a conflict if the objects can only be in one
replication group?

catrepad - how tell if run

2002-11-15 Thread Eric Richmond
How can you tell if catrepad.sql has already been run on a database?  I am
sure that catrep has already been run, but not catrepad.

Invalid Objects but no errors

2002-11-15 Thread Eric Richmond
I checked for invalid objects and two of them came up.  When I tried to
recompile them it says there was compilation errors.  Yet "show errors"
doesn't show anything.  Does anyone have familiarity with this particular
package or have an idea on how to fix this so it is valid?

SYSDBMS_REPCAT_RGTPACKAGE BODY
SVRMGR> alter package dbms_repcat_rgt compile body;
MGR-00072: Warning: PACKAGE DBMS_REPCAT_RGT created with compilation errors.
SVRMGR> show errors
No errors for PACKAGE DBMS_REPCAT_RGT

Character Sets - 2 different kinds, same server

2002-11-11 Thread Eric Richmond
Is it possible to have two different databases on the same server using two
different kinds of character sets (one would be UTF8 NCHAR and the other would
be US7ASCII)?   How do you create the databases with two different character
sets (is it an init parameter)?  If that is not possible and Oracle binaries
were installed with US7ASCII, how can you convert it to UTF8 without having to
reinstall everything?  This is Oracle 8.1.7.3 on Solaris.

OS authentication

2002-10-15 Thread Eric Richmond

I want to use OS authentication.  On the server side (Windows2000), does the
user need to be created as OPS$USERNAME or just USERNAME?   For
authentication, do they need to be added to any other group besides User?  Is
there anything else that needs to be done for authentication to work?

In the init, I have os_authent_prefix = OPS$.
I created the user as Create OPS$USERNAME identified externally;

dbbackup_begin Velpuri script

2002-09-04 Thread Eric Richmond

If anyone has the dbbackup_begin script from the Velpuri book/website that
they are currently using and it is working properly, can you please send me a
copy?  I would really appreciate seeing an example that is definitely working.

I realize that RMAN is available, but the person that I am trying to help
doesn't want to use RMAN.

Velpuri bkup script-syntax error

2002-09-02 Thread Eric Richmond

Did anyone else run into the error "dbbackup_begin: syntax error at line 521
'end of file' unexpected" after trying to use the Velpuri backup scripts for
Unix?  Where was the problem at and how did you resolve it?  I downloaded the
scripts from the Osborne website and this is the error that keeps occuring. 
Before trying to set up some other scripts, I wanted to give the Velpuri
scripts one more shot.

Thanks.

Hot Backup scripts UNIX

2002-08-29 Thread Eric Richmond

I am looking for a hot backup script that has been successfully used on
UNIX(Solaris).  Wouldn't mind using the Velpuri scripts, but they seem a bit
complicated and we have had some issues trying to actually implement them. 
Would really appreciate seeing what other people are using.  Also would be
nice to see how they are called using cron.

Thanks.

Does anyone have a script (or some method) that works on NT to send an email

Getting view definitions

2002-08-27 Thread Eric Richmond

I did an import into a database and have one view that is invalid.  How can I
get the definition for the view out of database so that I can drop it and
recreate it?  

Might there be any issues with just dropping and recreating it?  How do other
people handle this when then import goes well except for one view being
invalid?
