Does anyone know which patch level of 8i includes the dbmssupp.sql and .plb
files? 

I have databases here that are at 8.1.7.4, but the files are not there. 

9i has them, but none of the 8i databases. 

Thanks, 

Jared 

PS.  Metalink was no help for this.  Neither was google.

Oracle Financials 10SC on HP-UX rev 11

2003-06-18 Thread Trevor . Williams
Hi
Has anyone converted Oracle Financials from HP_UX rev 10.20 (DB v7.3.4.4) to
run on HP-UX rev 11?
The only rev 10.20 host we have left is running our Oracle Financials 10SC. 
We are looking at converting to HP-UX rev 11 purely for disaster recovery
reasons.
It will be most useful to communicate with someone who has already been
through the pain in order to get some idea about whether the move is
justifiable.
Upgrading to Financials 11i is not an option.
Issues include:
Should we go for 7.3.4.4 or 8.1.7.4 DB?
Do we/can we match financials patch levels between the binary-incompatible
rev10.20  11 versions of Financials?
How are customizations best identified, duplicated and re-installed?
Thanks

Is it a way to compare two tables to see the differences?  We have problem

we want to find and remove those entries from that table.

 Hmm...good point.  You know, I use this technique in various 
 places.  I
 never noticed that bug before, cause it will only appear if 
 the database
 has been up less than 1 day.  Guess it's time to do a bit of script
 auditing.
 
 Ok, try this instead:
 ps -ef|grep pmon|grep -v grep|cut -c49- |awk -F_ '{ 'print $3 }'
 
 I replaced the first awk w/ cut.  the -c option says to cut 
 that output
 from position 49 to the end of the line.  You may have to adjust the
 value from 49 to something else.
 
 That ought to work for you.

  Yes that helps, in a way. I could use good ol' awk to parse the last

  However, a slight problem in the ps -ef output.  If I do 
 what you have

 RMAN as it is the

  figure out how to cut the last field then pipe it to your

  Ok I'm getting somewhere!

   As is often the case, there are a million ways to do 
 this.  Given the
   output listed, I'd do something like:
  
   ps -ef|grep pmon|grep -v grep|awk '{ print $8 }'|awk -F_ '{
   print $3 }'
  
   ps -ef  -- get the programs that are running
   grep pmon -- get only those lines that have 'pmon' in them
   grep -v grep -- drop out the line that has 'grep pmon'
   awk '{ print $8 }' -- get the eighth column, the program name
   awk -F_ '{ print $3 }' -- parse the program name on the 
 '_' and return
   the third field, the database name.
  
   Hope that helps,

Hi All,
   
I want to feed my shell script with the names of

following:
  oracle 20113 1  0   Oct 25 ?0:01 ora_pmon_TLDEV
  oracle   898 1  0   Jul 22 ?0:06 ora_pmon_TLQA

  oracle 13026 1  0   Oct 26 ?0:00 ora_pmon_TLDVVAR
   
What I wanted is get only the db name part eg. TLDEV, RMAN,
   DBMON,etc.  I
don't want to rely on oratab file.
I was thinking of using 'cut' to cut out the last field and
   do some ${X##}
(variable pattern substitution) to get to the dbname bit.
   The trouble is
the number of fields in a ps -ef output is not consistent.
   As you can see
I've just restarted RMAN and now it only has 8 fields as
   compared to 9 for
the others.
   
Any suggestions?  Or another way of doing it?
Using KSH on Solaris 8.
   
Thanks.

RE: admin_restrictions_listener

2002-10-17 Thread Trevor . Williams
I understood that

admin_restrictions_listener=on

meant that you had to be physically logged on to the machine containing the 
listener.ora file to be able to stop/start/change. Is this not correct?

If correct, then 600 permissions would mean that you also had to be logged
on as the oracle owner: and if you are the oracle owner logged on to the
same machine as the listener then you'd not need to use lsnrctl to create
havoc. 

What am i missing here?

Not true.

I'm talking about accessing the TNS Listener process from a lsnrctl
executable on another machine entirely (i.e. my laptop, for example).
Changing the file permissions on the tnslsnr executable on the server
won't prevent commands (like STOP) received over the network...

Passwording the TNS Listener is the only protection for that...

 Although if you set the lsnrctl to 700 that problem goes away (that's what
 we did).  I'm still amazed that it's world executable.
