Hello experts,

in a very regular installation of ERP 6.0 - EHP7 with Oracle on Linux there is a obstinately resist of the SWPM to go reach the finish successfully...

SUSE 11 SP4
Oracle 12.1 (51047708 - Oracle12.1 RDBMS Linux x86 64 2von2)

I tried various and deinstalled every time with ../oracle/<SID>/121/deinstall.

But the error stays: In step 12 "Create database" it says

"errno=CJS-00030 Assertion failed: Component OraDbBuild: Context parameter tDataFileInfo, row[7] does not describe valid data file parameters."

I tried:

     - next to the actual SWPM10SP09_8-20009701.SAR also the older SWPM10SP09_7-20009701.SAR

     - $ORACLE_HOME with "/oracle/<SID>/121" and "/oracle/<SID>/12102"

Regarding to note 937174 I found the parameter tDataFileInfo in keydb.xml. The row[7] may define there the PSAPUNDO tablespace.
I have edit the keydb.xml and reduced the size of PSAPUNDO from 10000 to 1000MB (see screenshot) with no result (just to have edited the file somehow).

But as there are no more really options for troubleshooting I would like to ask here, if anybody has an idea, what can be done.
If no one has a solution, I would quote, 12.1 is not installable and we have to install EHP7 it with Oracle 11.2.0.4 instead.

Anybody got an inspirating idea?
Please find screenshots and extracts of logfiles below.

Thanks alot in advance

Dear all,

Apologies for the lengthy message

I am preparing to create a new experimental PI 7.3  system called PIX as a copy of the already existing PI Development system PID. The database of the source system is Oracle 11.2.0.3 on Oracle RAC and ASM. I plan to be using the database specific method for the system copy.

Because of Oracle RAC and ASM, the backup in the source system is taken with brbackup calling RMAN and the restore in the target system has to happen with RMAN. I will be restoring from an full offline RMAN backup.

I am trying to put together a plan as the documentation from SAP when it comes to restoring on ASM with RMAN is scattered in many different places and not detailed enough.

The ASM disk groups in the target system differ to the ones in the source system. For example, the source system diskgroup contains the <SID> as well, so +PID_DATA while the target system diskgroup for data is called +DATA

I read that I should run brrecover in order to restore with RMAN on ASM. For that, the target database should bein mount state when brrecover runs against it.

So I understand that I have to run brrestore -d rman_util -b last -m 0,00 to restore the source controlfile in thetarget system together with the source online redo logs.

My first question is how the controlfile and online redo logs will be stored. brrestore will look to restore them in an ASM diskgroup in the target system that does not exist. They have been backed up as (example)

+PID_MLOG/pid/onlinelog/group_1.256.783443785
+PID_OLOG/pid/onlinelog/group_1.256.783443785
+PID_DATA/PID/cntrlPID.dbf
+PID_ARCH/PID/cntrlPID.dbf
+PID_RECO/PID/cntrlPID.dbf

but the target system only has disk groups +DATA, +ARCH,+RECO

The three controlfiles will need to go to one of +DATA, +ARCH,+RECO each and the PID_OLOG to +DATA and the PID_MLOG to +RECO.

Then, I will have to start the database in mount state. As there is nothing with the target system name PIX in the restored controlfile, I assume that I will have to set the environment of Unix user oracle to point to the source system PID (ORACLE_HOME,ORACLE_SID, SAPDATA_HOME) and start the database mount as if it was a PID database. Is that correct?

Then set the ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID etc point to target system name PIX values and finally, following the
instructions from note 1003028

brrecover -t reset -b last -f PIX -RDG

The -RDG option will activate special parameter _remap_disk_groups which will need to be set to something like this: _remap_disk_groups=(+PID_DATA,+DATA,+PID_OLOG,+DATA,+PID_MLOG,+RECO,+PID_ARCH,+ARCH,+PID_RECO,+RECO)

Note 1003028 does not say where this parameter is set. Is it an Oracle parameter to be set in the spfile ora parameter of brrecover set in the menus? Or somewhere else?

Many thanks for your help

Andreas

Hi experts,

After I upgraded my system Oracle 11g to Oracle 12c I have the error ORA-04031 every week,

Errors in file I:\ORACLE\PRO\SAPTRACE\diag\rdbms\pro\pro\trace\pro_arc2_8028.trc  (incident=530484):

ORA-04031: unable to allocate 352 bytes of shared memory ("shared pool","unknown object","sga heap(3,0)","krsdicle")

Errors in file I:\ORACLE\PRO\SAPTRACE\diag\rdbms\pro\pro\trace\pro_arc0_14736.trc  (incident=514716):

ORA-04031: unable to allocate  bytes of shared memory ("","","","")

I have to stop the database and started again... I increase the parameter shared_pool_size but only work one-two days more...

What could be the problem? I have a server with 64GB and the parameters are:

_enable_shared_pool_durations        boolean     FALSE

shared_pool_reserved_size            big integer 405600K

shared_pool_size                     big integer 5G

sga_max_size                         big integer 32G

memory_target                        big integer 0

pga_aggregate_limit                  big integer 12G

pga_aggregate_target                 big integer 6G

Any idea?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Experts,

I upgraded my NW 7.3 system from ORACLE 11.2.0.4 to 12.1.0.2. After the

ORACLEupgrade, we are facing the following situation:

The J2EE system starts with ORACLE client 11.2.0.4 correctly. After

changing the ORACLE client to 12.1.0.2 we are getting the following

error in the bootstrap phase:

-----Start of quote of Note 1914631 -----

At the moment, for SAP products based on SAP NetWeaver 7.2x, 7.3x for

AS-JAVA and AS-ABAP+JAVA (Java Stack and Double Stack) the following

restrictions apply:

  Oracle Instant Client version 11.2.0.4 is required for SAP

installations (SWPM) of such a product, for SAP upgrades to such a

product and also for SAP system copies/system migrations of such

products.

  In order to run the SAP system with Oracle Instant Client version

12.1.0.2 you have to apply the SAP support packages from SAP note

1777021. These support packages enable the SAP system to use the Oracle

Instant Client 12.1.0.2.

-----End of quote of Note 1914631 -----

Note 1777021 – “J2EE: Introducing Support for Oracle 12” recommends the

following version of SERVERCORE in order to be able to handle ORACLE

J2EE ENGINE SERVERCORE 7.30 SP009 patch 000000

Version of component SERVERCORE of my system is:

1000.7.30.10.0.20130822221300

We are using Kernel 7.22 EXT

I installed the instantclient as recommended in note 819829 – “Oracle

Instant Client Installation and Configuration on Unix” (OCL12164.SAR)

The directory structure for client is (with links):

  /oracle/client/

  11x_64 -> /oracle/client/12x

  12x/

  instantclient -> instantclient_12102

  instantclient_12102

The environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH of user xxxadm contains

/oracle/client/12x/instantclient.

After installation I executed the steps of note 867976 –“Changing JDBC

driver on WEB AS Java 6.40/NW 7.0x/7.1x” (by the way, this note is not

valid to NW 7.3 and above, support has to update this note):

- In secure store of the configtool the data under tab “Connection

Pool” is:

- Changed the config.properties file under

/usr/sap/XXX/J52/j2ee/configtool/

  rdbms.driverLocation=/oracle/client/12x/instantclient/ojdbc6.jar

Additionally, I changed the parameter j2ee/dbdriver in the instance

profile to /oracle/client/12x/instantclient/ojdbc6.jar.

In order to force the system to make a synchronization in bootstrap

phase

I set parameter element.resynch = FORCE in file

Hi Experts,

I'm trying to check the detailed log of backup logs in DB12 from my Clone (CLU) system it is showing an error , where as when i try to open in SMP System I'm able to get the logs.

Here the problem is in my SMP system DB and Application Instances are on same servers.

But in CLone (CLU) DB and Application are in different servers.

How can i check this logs now, do i need to do any parameter settings .

How to know what is the reason why i'm not able to check that logs.

Please provide me the solution why wee are not able to check this.

Hi All,

I've just been reading the SAP Upgrade to Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2): UNIX guides and under section 2.1 Checking the Original Version of Your Database it states the following :-

If the source database runs Oracle 10.2 with patch set lower than 10.2.0.5, you need to first upgrade the source database to at least patch set 10.2.0.5.

But look at this

ORACLE PATCHES 10.2.0.5 (SUPPORT PACKAGES AND PATCHES)

IMPORTANT NOTE!

ORACLE 10.2.0.5.0 EXTENDED SUPPORT

If you want to download Oracle 10.2.0.5.0 patches, please see SAP Hot News Note 1654734 first. That note provides important information about the download policy valid during Oracle Extended Support.

So according to that note 1654734 - Ext Support contract required for 10.2.0.5 PSU, SBP & Client

Only customers with an extended contract may download and use the Oracle Bundle Patches for Oracle Version 10.2.0.5 provided by SAP.

At the very bottom of that note it states The alternative to the Oracle 10.2 Extended Support is the upgrade to Oracle Version 11.2. For further details, see Note 1398634.

So what gives, can I upgrade or not?  I'm confused as this contradicts the Upgrade Guide!

HELP!

Cheers

Craig

Sorry should have said we are running 10.2.0.4.0

Hi,

I have taken full online backup on Sunday followed by incremental backup on Monday,Tuesday and Wednesday.

Today morning one of our Test system DB crashed.

Please let us know how to restore the database till thursday morning.

OS - AIX

DB -ORacle 11.2.0.4.6

TSM - Tivoli

RMAN will be added to perform incremental backup

My query is

1) Whether we need to restore the full DB backup, all the incremental backup till wednesday and apply the redologs

2) Restore full online backup on sunday and wednesday incremental backup only and apply the redologs

3) whether we need to user only the latest incremenatl backup taken on wednesday , (will it automatically takes from previous full and incremental till tueday)

Please let us know which control file i have to use if the first query is correct (full db backup or Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday)

Hi experts,

We are in the process of installing Oracle 12c software in order to perform an upgrade from 11.2.0.4 to 12.1.0.2 before upgrading our system from SAP NTW 7.4 to SAP NTW 7.5.

The installation process stops with the following error in the link binaries phase: Error invoking target 'rat_on part_on dm_on olap_on sdo_on rac_off dnfs_off' of makefile '/oracle/<SID>/12102/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms´'.

In addition to the above described issue, while performing troubleshooting, the installation session was unexpectedly ended because to a power problem in our building. According to note 1915301, under common errors section, if the installation directory is no empty the software has to be uninstalled before re-run a new installation.

However the desinstall option fails: “ERROR: oracle/net/common/NetGetEnv.get(Ljava/lang/String;)”. No software is deleted from oracle home /oracle/<SID>/12102 and off course the re installation process failed with message “The selected Oracle Home contains directories or files”.

We’ve tried to desintall software following these three different approaches:

According to note 1915301: ./RUNINSTALLER –deinstall –home /oracle/<SID>/12102
According to note 1915314: ./runInstaller –deinstall –home /oracle/<SID>/12102
Also tried with the desintall utiliy outside the OUI: /oracle/<SID>/12102/desinstall/

Could you please help me in resuming the software installation? It is possible to simply remove current oracle home (/oracle/<SID>/12102) and reinstall software installation from scratch? I was considering rename current oracle home (/oracle/<SID>/12102 as (/oracle/<SID>/12102_BCKP), take a backup of the oraInventory and restart the software installation. Do you see any constraint in doing that?

Sorry for reporting two different incidents in the same discussion, but they are linked. I cannot move forward with troubleshooting of the first reported error without solving re installation problem.

• Current oracle release: 11.2.0.4
• OS Version: AIX 7100-03-04-1441
• Runinstaller version: 12.1.0.2.0 (059)
• Oracle Software Owner: ora<sid>

Please let us know if some extra data is required.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

When I compress one infocube its showing ora-14080 error.

Please help.

Hi All,

According to sap note 1778431 - SAP Installations using Shared Oracle Homes we can make use of Oracle Shared Home.

However it talks about fresh installations of SAP.

Can I during the upgrade of 10.2 to 11.2 switch to use Oracle Shared Home?

What would I need to do to accomplish this?

I'm trying to kill 2 birds here so to make it easier when we upgrade to 12c and to make patching/maintenance easier plus regain some disk space as a result.

Thanks

Craig

Current environment

SAP ERP 6.0 (ECC 6.0) / EHP: 4

ABAP Only.

Oracle: 11.2.0.2

Oracle instant client: 10.2.0.4 V5

SAP Kernel: 721 patch level 526

Type of upgrade: Out-of-place upgarde (Install binaries in new ORACLE_HOME), then upgrade using DBUA + SBP Patch, post-installation.

We have read through 1914631 - Central Technical Note for Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (12.1)

Questions:

Preparation work

1) Do we need to upgrade our oracle instant client at least to 11.2.0.4 latest version first?

2) Do we need to upgrade our SAP Kernel to version 7.22_EXT first ? Can it support non EXT?

What is the recommended kernel version we should go for?

3) For BR*Tools 7.40, we only apply after we upgrade the kernel to eg. 7.22_EXT?

4) Do we need to setup SSF first before the upgrade?

5) We don't use ACO feature in our current oracle, I guess we can skip (SAP note 2157904), right?

6) Do we need use create the new user oracle to perform the out-of-place upgrade or use <sid>adm?

What was understand 1915317 - Migrating Software Owner to 'oracle' the same source and target oracle must use the same software owner for upgrade. We want to reduce any downtime during day to day operation.

Thanks.

Dear Experts,

One of our client wants to setup Oracle DR for production system.

Please suggest step by step process of above method.

Hi All,

I am doing patch upgrade from 11.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.4.
But the DBUA got stuck on 85% from last 1.30 hours. Also, DBUA is not generating log after 15% completion of upgrade.

Please suggest.

Shyam
