merant drivers on citrix
Found this note on Citrix web site: DataDirect does support the use of Connect for ODBC on Citrix Metaframe and Windows Terminal Server environments. Note that due to known problems with the Microsoft MSI Engine, the installation of Connect for ODBC is currently not supported through the Citrix Metaframe or Windows Terminal Server environments. Therefore, if can use the driver on citrix but can't install it, how do you use it???

By each office location havingits own oracle client installation on a local fileserver, the .dll traffic would be minimized. You might still decide to keep the Oracle Clientconfiguration files centralized at the main office(via the use of the TNS_ADMIN environment variable).We took the route of providing all the developerdesktops with a full fat client, but used a responsefile (for OUI) to specify only the minimum filesrequired for our environment. I'd be happy to passalong the response file.We do use centralized [tnsnames,sqlnet].ora files, butalso use ONAMES as a backup names resolution method.Haven't tackled that OID thingy yet.hth.Paul__Do you Yahoo!?Yahoo!

Short of installing Oracle on every >client PC, what are our options?There is a reason that Oracle doesn't support configurations like this. There is a fair amount of "chatter" between an application and the Oracle client DLL's. When this chatter starts flying over the network rather than merely going to a local DLL, you start to get performance problems.How are your application(s) designed? It's probably possible to tweak an OCI application to make fewer OCI calls. If you're using ODBC, and have the budget, you could purchase one of the wire-protocol ODBC drivers.Justin CaveDistributed Database Consulting-- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net-- Author: Justin Cave INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.comSan Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services-To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail messageto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and inthe message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L(or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

oracle client on PC's
Rather than installing the Oracle client on every client PC, we have been:- installing client on 1 PC - copying directory to a network server - extract the registry for "oracle" key - fix registry that was extracted to reference the network drive - load registry on client PCs - add the network pc as a search drive to the client pc. We are now experiencing problems over the WAN and looking at ways to eliminate the Oracle dll overhead. Short of installing Oracle on every client PC, what are our options?

RE: pga_aggregate_target
Will look at what you suggest. The Oracle docs suggest you using a formula based on amount of system memory. However, this is not the only database on the server. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/26/03 3:29:26 PM >>> Jeffrey, If you are simply looking at a conversion from 8i to 9iR2, and you're not going to be implementing a bunch of new 9i features (that could affect PGA usage), then it's probably reasonably straightforward. You can look at 'session pga memory' and 'session pga memory max' statistics in V$SESSTAT to get an idea of current PGA memory consumption in 8i. The 'max' statistic is probably more interesting in terms of total aggregate memory consumption

"extra" thread with SQL*Net DCD turned on
For the past 1.5 years, starting at Oracle 8.1.7.3.2 and now 8.1.7.4.10 on windows; we have encountered a problem wherein we encounter a runaway thread during patching of Oracle Applications 11i. This thread is not know to v$session and orakill will not terminate it. The only solution has been stop the database and service. Recently, following implementation of HRMS F and its prerequisites (including FND G), the runaway thread problem mutated to a major thread leakage. In our dev/test instances, with the above patches installed, we would hit 1000 threads assigned to oracle.exe per task manager After a long ODC session with support and continuously monitoring of the threads, it appeared that the "extra" thread created for each connection was not always being terminated. You get two threads per connect of which one appears to be for DCD. Friday, we turned off ODC in test and appear stable. We are now trying in dev to confirm this may be a solution. If so, we will turn it off in production and implement the patches. Does anyone have similar problems with DCD. We had seen some bugs on this but they were with 8.1.7.2.x. During our ODC session, we asked about known bugs and there were none.

set correct "next" time after fixing broken job
If I mark a job as broken to prevent its being run and later mark it as being unbroken, it appears that by default the "next run date" is set as the current date. If I want to have the job rescheduled back to its original date/time, is there a way to do that. Let's say the job runs daily at 10:00 p.m. If I mark the job as broken and later as unbroken without specifying a date, it runs immediately. However, I know that I can code a date when I unbreak the job, but how can I do this in sql without hardcoding a date. We have several jobs we would sometimes like halted during maintenance and would like to avoid having to hardcode a date when unbreak them.

Here's what I've tried:Followed note on metalink stating to add local security policies: Act as part of operating system, increase quotas, log on as batch job, replace a process level token, and rebooted. All logons are part of the administrator and the ORA_DBA group. I am able to log in as each of these local accounts, the accounts are not locked or messed up. I have double-checked the password in the properties tab. Local system account also fails with same error. Here's the error I receive when I try to manually start the listener service: Could not start the OracleOraHome81TNSListener service on Local Computer.

Oracle Portal w/Single-signon

Re: [Q] how to check ORACLE thread and kill it on NT????
wonderfull:)) For me at least. I have been waiting ages for somebody to hit our problem. Oracle has been looking at it for months. In our case, it only happens during patching of the Oracle Apps 11i software. does this match: CPU goes to 100% (in some cases may not be that high - usually is but had a case of only at 20 %). no users logged into the database - check v$session if use pslist utility from sysinternals.com to list threads in the oracle process, you find the thread consuming cpu does not exist in the v$session view. Using orakill on the thread consuming CPU has no impact. Shutting down the database does not resolve. must stop the service to get the cpu back to normal. restart database and resume patching and all is fine. If this matches your problem would really be interested since Oracle says we are the only one with the problem.

RE: runaway oracle.exe thread on NT / W2K
Problem is that can not reproduce on demand. Yesterday, we were doing the wrap up for PO G patches, i.e. generate messagess, flexfields, etc. Experienced the problem, tried redoing the same tasks and worked. Then after bringin up concurrent manager, lots of compile flexfield requests started (we had upped number of standard managers from 6 to 30). Since CPU at 100%, kept lowering number of standard managers from 30 to 20 and eventually back to 6. When requests done noticed cpu at 50%. Stopped everything and still at 50% due to a thread. Have been running 8.1.7.3.2 on another dev database for about a month with no problems, but there also had the problem but don't recall when since at the time thought it was a fluke. Did not get concerned until happened again (couple times) on another server and that's when openned the TAR. Therefore, don't know how to reproduce but getting leary of moving it to production.

There are also a few other threads that will not show up related to process management. One approach: Once you have a database instance with this problem that you are willing to crash you can attach to it with a debugger to get a look at what is up. The simple way to do this with little expertise is to use: drwtsn32 -p This will generate a dump file (given that you haven't reconfigured dr watson) that support can review (well, the BDE group can) for content.

Runaway threads in 8.1.7.3.2 on NT/W2K
We are running Oracle 8.1.7.3.2 on W2K/NT. We have experienced a problem while applying Oracle Apps patches that CPU shot to 100% for 4 threads. The weird part is that the patch had aborted so nothing was running in the database. Bouncing database cleared the problem. Continued with more patches and noticed CPU running at 25% with nothing running. Again bounced database and back to normal. Latest item we noticed today is that CPU is normal (less than 5%) with no users but we have 40 threads showing in task manager. Did shutdown immediate and count only went down to 30. Bounced database and now have 12 threads. If connect / disconnect, I see the count go up and then down again. Looks like Oracle is missing some threads - possibly why during our patching of the Oracle Apps we see CPU out of control. We have a TAR on this but so far Oracle is lost regarding the high CPU. Especially given that don't have it right now. Hoping the extra threads will point to something.

recovery keeps wanting logs
Recently installed a W2k server on a SAN. Using backupexec for W2K. Initial test worked great. This week one final test before moving a production database to it. Backed up the database. Restored the database. Launched recovery, it requested the log from during the backup and then wanted more! - there is no more. Today did a test to see if it is Veritas. - put back saved disk copy of the database- started the database- manually set system, psrbs and pstemp to backup mode- ran ocopy to do the backup- set tablespaces to end backup mode- switched logfile- shutdown database- renamed directory to save- renamed the directory containing the 3 copied tablespaces to "f:\htst"- started the service- recreated the controlfile containing only these 3 tablespaces- did recover until cancel- did the log switched to and then cancelled recovery- alter database open says system needs more logs!!!

The following is from note 148903.1 talking about upgrading to the latest version of 8.1.7 with the oracle apps. While not applicable to my case, it even states when upgrading from 8.1.6 to 8.1.7, install 8.1.7 and patch to current release and then upgrade the database: You will be upgrading directly to the current 8.1.7 patch set level.

move database to new server and higher version of same 8.1.7

Run the 8.1.7.3.2 patch scripts. I don't think this should be a problem since both databases are 8.1.7 just different versions.

accessing reports processed by the reports server
We are a two node install of Oracle Apps 11i all on NT. The question though is really with the reports server and the web server being on separate nodes. We are an apps 11i two node install. From the apps, we are able to submit a business intelligence report to the report server. However, the browser never returns. Continually tries to open a page forever. Oracle's current thought is that since the web server and report server are on different nodes, the browser could not access it. Therefore, changed the mapping for the apps "cache" to point to the database server and run apache as a user. If enter the URL directly of where the report is in the database server's file system cache, can now view it. However, the apps still hangs. If try to access the report from the "showjobs" screen, it hangs as well. Almost like web server asking the report server for the report but never gets a response?? This has been going on for a few weeks now and getting no where. Any help greatly appreciated.

analyze of fnd_lobs hangs
In oracle financials 11.5.3, have table called fnd_lobs. analyze table estimate statistics/compute statistics hangs. validate structure hangs - drives cpu to 60-80 percent but never finishes. dbms_stats.table_gather - works!!!

11.5.3 on nt lost old oracle home
We had been running 7.3.4 server partitioned to 8.1.6 on NT. Installed Financials 11.5.3 from staging area and tried to bring 10.7 backup. Will upgrade once complete category 2 steps for the apps. Eventually got it up. The problem is that now can not get access to a 7.3.4 database we were using for other apps on the same development NT system. Apparently, installer created a new home putting only 8.0.6 in it. My old home of 7.3.4/8.0.6 exists on disk but not to the old installer (not the universal one). I tried switching oracle homes but all that did was alter the path. Right now I have products installed in the old default_home which can not uninstall or do anything with since the installer is not looking at them. I deleted the sid and tried using oradim73 to recreate it but it gets a illegal read or some such error. Probably because the registry says to use the home layed down by 11.5.3 for 8.0 databases and not my old oracle home. Any ideas on how to get 7.3 back??

Therefore, for database sizing, performance tuning, backup & recovery, etc... Your on your own. To PeopleSoft a "database" is equal to a schema, although they don't really like, but do accept, having more than one schema inside one database instance. I do recommend the following PeopleSoft classes though, PeopleTools I & II (this is the basic stuff), Configuration & Administration (configuration pertains to the Application server from BEA & the process scheduler), Upgrade & Data Management workshop (really gets into the upgrade process which is very involved).
