Re: I need to change the instance name (to Dennis)
Yechiel : I will take a look at options. Well, for use replication i need to set some parameters, right? So, I didn't do it. It means that i don't use replication. but i will check others otpions. Thanks Regards Eriovaldo - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2002 8:48 AM I looked at 9i options and I see that replication is not available with SE, only with EE. So, if you use replication you can not downgrade to SE from EE. ( replication is just an example). So you need to take a good look on the options difference between SE and EE to make sure you CAN downgrade. 9i option link: http://www.oracle.com/ip/deploy/database/oracle9i/index.html?packagingandopt ions.html Yechiel Adar Mehish - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 08, 2002 11:28 PM Yeachiel : We have 8.1.7 EE.

Re: I need to change the instance name (to Dennis)
Dennis : Thanks for your answer. Well, I need to downgrade my database, changing EE for SE, so ... The most problem is that the v$instance is used in the aplication. I saw in the metalink a document that helps to change the db_name and not the instance_name, understand.. so ... I thought to create the new one, with the new name and migrate to it and after it to change the name to the old one... Like that, i shouldn't change the application . But i hope that the best way is : Deinstall and install the new version. And to migrate it fully. Right ?

Here, you must ask yourself - what is the value of retaining the same instance name, and what are the risks to my production environment? If you perceive the value to be high and the risks low, then go for it. But often (especially after you've been stung a few times) it seems that the value wasn't so great after all. How long can you have your production site down? What happens if something goes wrong and you have them down quite a bit longer than you estimated? You can lower the risk to your production site by creating the new instance (different name), and getting it all prepared before you take the production site down for the export. If most of your users access the instance via SQL*Net (Net8), you can put an alias there, so they don't have to change a thing. Of course, if your boss says do it or else, then the value/risk equation changes dramatically. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

Export all the database 3.) Deinstanll the old software 4.) Install the new version 5.) Create the instance with the old name 6.) Import the database but it will take a while.

However, I don't want to miss a step so you best running off to Metalink. They actually have a note out there on how to do it. Not quite up to date for 9i but close. You need to shutdown your database, change your oracle sid, rename your init, if using an i version change the instance name and if desired the service name. Hum, me thinks that's it. I may be missing something though. I feel like I am missing something. However, the moral of the story is that its quite easy and I have done it a couple of times. You need to make a decision on what to do with your directories structures if you are using the $ORACLE_BASE/admin/sid structure. There is no technical reason to change it except for your own sanity. -Original Message- Andrietta Sent: Saturday, May 04, 2002 12:23 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Friends : I need to change the instance name.

Re: I need to change the instance name (to Dennis)
Right BUT: make sure you do not use any option that does not exist in the standard edition but existed in the enterprise edition.
