1 Patch Set OverviewPatch sets are a mechanism for delivering fully tested and integrated product fixes. Patch sets provide bug fixes only; they do not include new functionality and they do not require certification on the target system.

Patch sets include all of the libraries that have been rebuilt to implement the bug fixes in the set. All of the fixes in the patch set have been tested and are certified to work with each other. Because the patch set includes only low impact patches, it does not require you to certify applications or tools against the server.

You can apply the Oracle Database release 10.2.0.4 patch set to the following Oracle Database 10g release 2 installations:

• Oracle Database

• Oracle Real Application Clusters

• Oracle Database Client

• Oracle Database Companion CD

• Oracle Clusterware

• Oracle Database Vault

For a list of products included in this patch set, see the "Patch Set Components" section.

2 Components of This Patch SetThe following are the updated components of this patch set:

• Up to January 2008 CPU is included in this patch set.

• Platform-specific bug fixes as listed in the "Fixed Platform-Specific Bugs" section

• Generic bug fixes as listed in the List of Bugs fixed document

7.1.1 Upgrading Oracle E-Business Suite Databases

If you are an Oracle E-Business Suite customer and you want to upgrade the Oracle E-Business Suite release 11i database server to this patch set, then you must check the latest certification status and Interoperability Notes available on the OracleMetaLink Web site:


7.1.2 Upgrading Installations that use Physical or Logical Standby Databases

Before applying this patch set to an Oracle Database 10.2.0.x installation that uses one or more physical or logical standby databases, review the following OracleMetaLink documents:

• For information about physical standby databases, review document 278641.1.

• For information about logical standby databases, review document 278643.1.

These documents are available on the OracleMetaLink Web site:


7.1.3 Upgrading Installations that use Java Virtual Machine or Oracle interMedia

If any of the databases use Java Virtual Machine or Oracle interMedia, then install the Oracle Database 10g Products installation type from the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD before installing the 10.2.0.4 patch set. For information about installing the Oracle Database 10g Products installation type from the Companion CD, see the Oracle Database Companion CD Installation Guide for the platform. This installation type includes the Natively Compiled Java Library files to improve Java performance. If you do not install the Natively Compiled Java Library files, the ORA-29558: JAccelerator (NCOMP) not installed error occurs when a database that uses Java Virtual Machine is upgraded to the patch release.

See Also:

OracleMetaLink document 293658.1 for more information about the ORA-29558: JAccelerator (NCOMP) not installed error

7.1.4 Upgrading Oracle Clusterware

The Oracle Clusterware software must be at the same or newer level as the Oracle software in the Oracle RAC Oracle home. Therefore, you should always upgrade Oracle Clusterware before you upgrade Oracle RAC. This patch does not allow you to upgrade Oracle RAC before you upgrade Oracle Clusterware.

7.1.5 Notes to Oracle OLAP Users

To apply this patch set, Oracle OLAP users should ensure that the base release is the Enterprise Edition of 10.2.0.x with the Oracle OLAP option installed. Oracle highly recommends the Data Warehouse configuration type to optimize the database for Oracle OLAP.

If you are moving the Oracle Database from a 32-bit operating system to a 64-bit operating system,



either prior to applying the patch set or after applying the patch set, review document 352306.1 on the OracleMetaLink Web site:






7.1.6 Disabling Oracle Database Vault

Complete the steps in this section before upgrading Oracle Database Vault from 10.2.0.x to 10.2.0.4 or downgrading Oracle Database Vault from 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.x:

1. Re-create and replace the password file, in order to log in to an Oracle Database Vault instance as a SYS user with SYSDBA privilege:

$ orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwsid password=syspasswd force=y nosysdba=n

Note:

The SYS connection as SYSDBA is disabled in a default Oracle Database Vault installation. Without enabling SYSDBA, you cannot unlock DVSYS in Step 5 that follows.

2. Shut down the database:

For Oracle RAC:

$ srvctl stop database -d db_name -c "SYS/SYS_password as SYSDBA"

For Single Instance:

SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSOPEREnter password: SYS_passwordSQL> SHUTDOWN

3. Re-link the Oracle database software with dv_off:

Note:

For Oracle RAC, you must run the following commands on all the nodes.

$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib$ make -f ins_rdbms.mk dv_off$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin$ relink oracle

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#BGBGHACH


4. Start the database:

For Oracle RAC:

$ srvctl start database -d db_name -c "SYS/SYS_password as SYSDBA"


$ sqlplus /nolog SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_passwordSQL> STARTUP

5. Unlock the DVSYS account and set the password:

SQL> ALTER USER DVSYS ACCOUNT UNLOCK;SQL> ALTER USER DVSYS IDENTIFIED BY DVSYS;

6. Disable the Oracle Database Vault triggers:

Run Oracle Database Vault Configuration Assistant (DVCA) by using the dvca -action disable option. This disables the Database Vault triggers. Use the following syntax:

dvca -action disable-service service_name-owner_account DV_owner_account_name[-logfile ./dvca.log][-nodecrypt]

Enter SYS password: sys_passwordEnter owner password: owner_password

7.2 Identify the Oracle Database Installation

This is not a complete software distribution. You must install it in an existing Oracle Database 10g Oracle home. To identify Oracle home directories, view the/etc/oratab file.

If you are installing this patch set on an existing Oracle Real Application Cluster 10g release 10.2.0.x installation, you must run Oracle Universal Installer from the same node from which the Oracle Database software was installed.

7.3 Check Postrelease Updates

Before installing this patch set in a production environment, review document 316900.1, ALERT: Oracle 10g release 2 (10.2) Support Status and Alerts, available on the OracleMetaLink Web site:


To locate this document:




This document is created by Oracle Support Services and provides information about the status of


issues discovered after this patch set was released. If you are unable to access this site, then contact Oracle Support Services before installing this patch set in a production environment.

7.4 Download and Extract the Installation Software

To download and extract the patch set installation software:

1. Download the p6810189_10204_Linux-x86.zip patch set installation archive to a directory that is not the Oracle home directory or under the Oracle home directory.

2. Enter the following command to unzip and extract the installation files:

$ unzip p6810189_10204_Linux-x86.zip

7.5 Update Oracle Time Zone Definitions

The 10.2.0.4 patch set includes an update to the Oracle time zone definitions to Version 4. This version of the time zone definitions includes the changes to daylight saving time in the USA in 2007 and other updates.

In the Oracle database the TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE (TSLTZ) and TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE (TSTZ) data types and the TZ_OFFSET function select the time zone information from the time zone files.

It may be necessary to take action on existing TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE (TSLTZ) and TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE (TSTZ) data or to re-apply DST patches afterwards.

For full overview please see OracleMetaLink document 553812.1 "Actions for the DSTv4 update in the 10.2.0.4 patchset".

1. When patching from a lower 10.2 release or upgrading from 10.1.0.X directly to 10.2.0.4, check the current version of the Oracle time zone definitions with the following command:

SELECT version FROM v$timezone_file;

• If this query reports version 4, no action is required; in this case, continue with steps described in section 7.6.

• If this reports a version lower or higher then 4, see OracleMetalink document 553812.1 "Actions for the DSTv4 update in the Release 10.2.0.4 patchset".

2. On upgrading from Release 9i directly to Release 10.2.0.4, see OracleMetaLink document 553812.1 "Actions for the DSTv4 update in the 10.2.0.4 patchset."

3. On upgrading from Release 8.1.7 directly to Release 10.2.0.4, no action is required because Release 8.1.7 has no timezone data stored; in this case continue with steps described in section 7.6

7.6 Set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID Environment Variables

Enter the following commands to set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID environment variables:

• Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:

$ ORACLE_HOME=Oracle_home$ ORACLE_SID=sid

$ export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID

• C shell:

% setenv ORACLE_HOME Oracle_home% setenv ORACLE_SID sid

In these examples, Oracle_home is the Oracle home directory where the Oracle Database 10g installation that you want to upgrade is installed, and sid is the system identifier of the database that you want to upgrade. For Oracle RAC installations, sid is generally the sid prefix and the instance number. For example, ORCL1.

7.7 Stop All Processes

Go to the following sections based on the Oracle Database installation type:

• Stopping All Processes for a Single Instance Installation

• Stopping All Processes for an Oracle Clusterware Installation

• Stopping All Processes for an Oracle RAC Installation

See also:

Appendix F, "How to Stop Processes in an Existing Oracle Real Application Clusters Database, and How to Perform Oracle Clusterware Rolling Upgrades" of Oracle Database Oracle Real Application Clusters Installation Guide.

7.7.1 Stopping All Processes for a Single Instance Installation

Shut down the following Oracle Database 10g processes in the order specified before installing the patch set:

1. Shut down all processes in the Oracle home that might be accessing a database, for example Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control or iSQL*Plus:

$ emctl stop dbconsole$ isqlplusctl stop$ lsnrctl stop

Note:

Before you shut down all processes that are monitored by Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control, set a blackout in Grid Control for the processes that you intend to shut down. This is necessary so that the availability records for these processes indicate that the shutdown was planned downtime rather than an unplanned system outage.

2. Shut down all database instances running in the Oracle home directory, where you need to install the patch set.

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#CJGGIJCI

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#CJGIGAHF

3. Shut down all listeners running in the Oracle home directory, where you need to install the patch set.

4. If there is an Automatic Storage Management instance present, then enter the following command to set the values for the environment variables $ORACLE_HOME and $ORACLE_SID:


$ export ORACLE_SID=+ASM$ export ORACLE_HOME=ASM_HOME

• C shell:

% setenv ORACLE_SID +ASM% setenv ORACLE_HOME ASM_HOME

Enter the following command to Shut down the Automatic Storage Management instance:

$ sqlplus /NOLOGSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_passwordSQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE

5. For Automatic Storage Management, to shut down the Oracle Cluster Synchronization Services daemon enter the following command as the root user:

# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/crsctl stop crs

7.7.2 Stopping All Processes for an Oracle Clusterware Installation

This section contains the following information:

• Rolling Upgrade

• Non Rolling Upgrade

7.7.2.1 Rolling Upgrade

By default, Oracle supports rolling upgrade for Oracle Clusterware. Complete the following steps only on one node:

1. Shut down all processes in the Oracle home on the node that might be accessing a database, for example Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control or iSQL*Plus:

$ emctl stop dbconsole$ isqlplusctl stop

Note:

Before you shut down all processes that are monitored by Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control, set a blackout in Grid Control for the processes that you intend to shut down. This is necessary so that the availability records for these processes indicate that the shutdown was planned downtime rather than an

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#BGBICFHJ

unplanned system outage.

2. Shut down all services in the Oracle home on the node that might be accessing a database:

$ srvctl stop service -d db_name [-s service_name_list [-i inst_name]]

3. Shut down all Oracle RAC instances on the node on which you intend to perform the rolling upgrade. To shut down Oracle RAC instances on individual nodes in the database, enter the following command where db_name is the name of the database:

$ srvctl stop instance -d db_name -i inst_name

4. If an Automatic Storage Management instance is present, then shut down the Automatic Storage Management instance on the node on which you intend to perform the rolling upgrade. To shut down an Automatic Storage Management instance, enter the following command where node is the name of the node where the Automatic Storage Management instance is running:

$ srvctl stop asm -n node

5. Stop all node applications on the node on which you intend to perform the rolling upgrade. To stop node applications running on a node, log in as the root user and enter the following command, where node is the name of the node where the applications are running:

# srvctl stop nodeapps -n node

6. Perform the steps mentioned in Section 8.

Note:

The following instructions are displayed on the Oracle Universal Installer screen:

To complete the installation of this patch set, perform the following tasks on each node:

1. Log in as the root user and enter the following command to shut down the Oracle Clusterware:

# CRS_home/bin/crsctl stop crs

2. Run the root102.sh script to automatically start the Oracle Clusterware on the patched node:

# CRS_home/install/root102.sh

7. To upgrade the rest of the nodes, go to the next node and perform Steps 1 to 5 and then log in as the root user and perform the following steps:

1. Enter the following command to shut down the Oracle Clusterware:


https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#BGBJFJDA

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#BGBDCCFF




Note:

Rolling upgrade is not supported on Shared Oracle home.

7.7.2.2 Non Rolling Upgrade

For non rolling upgrade, Oracle Clusterware needs to be shut down completely.

Complete the following steps:

Note:

You must perform these steps in the order listed.

1. Shut down all processes in the Oracle home on each node that might be accessing a database, for example Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control or iSQL*Plus:


Note:


2. Shut down all services in the Oracle home on each node that might be accessing a database:


3. Shut down all Oracle RAC instances on all cluster nodes by entering the following command where db_name is the name of the database:

$ srvctl stop database -d db_name

4. If Automatic Storage Management instance is present, then shut down Automatic Storage Management instances on all cluster nodes by entering the following command where node is the name of the node where the Automatic Storage Management instance is running:


5. Stop all node applications on all cluster nodes by entering the following command as the root user, where node is the name of the node where the applications are running:


6. Shut down the Oracle Clusterware processes by entering the following command on all nodes as the root user:


7. Complete the steps mentioned in Section 8.

Note:







7.7.3 Stopping All Processes for an Oracle RAC Installation

Shut down the following Oracle Database 10g processes before installing the patch set:



Note:





3. Shut down all Oracle RAC instances on the nodes, which run from the Oracle home on which you are going to apply the patch set. To shut down all Oracle RAC instances for a database, enter the following command where db_name is the name of the database:


4. If Automatic Storage Management instance is present, then shut down all Automatic Storage Management instances on all nodes. To shut down an Automatic Storage Management instance, enter the following command where node is the name of the node where the Automatic Storage Management instance is running:


This needs to be done only when patching the home from where ASM runs. It is recommended that ASM run from a different ORACLE_HOME than the database.

5. Stop any listeners that are running from the Oracle home that you are patching on all nodes. To stop the listener running on a node, enter the following command, where node is the name of the node where the listener is running:

$ srvctl stop listener -n node [-l listenername]

Note:

Using a logical standby database, you can upgrade Oracle Database software and patch sets with almost no downtime. Using Data Guard SQL Apply, you can perform a rolling upgrade of the Oracle Database software from release 10.2.0.1 to the current patch set release. During a rolling upgrade, you can run different releases of Oracle Database on the primary and logical standby databases, while you upgrade them, one at a time, incurring minimal downtime on the primary database.

See also:

Chapter 11, "Using SQL Apply to Upgrade the Oracle Database" of Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration.

7.8 Back Up the System

Oracle recommends that you create a backup of the Oracle Inventory, Oracle 10g home and Oracle 10g Database before you install the patch set. If you are planning to apply this patch to Oracle RAC, ensure that you create a backup of these components on all nodes before applying the patch.

See also:

Oracle Database Backup and Recovery User's Guide for more information.

8 Installation TasksYou can install the patch set either interactively or noninteractively. See one of the following sections for information about how to complete the installation:

Note:

If you also plan to apply this patch to Oracle Clusterware, ensure that you apply the patch to Oracle Clusterware before applying it to Oracle Database. This is because Oracle Clusterware should always be at the same or later version as the database.

• Installing the Oracle Database 10g Patch Set Interactively

• Installing the Oracle Database 10g Patch Set Noninteractively

8.1 Installing the Oracle Database 10g Patch Set Interactively

To install the Oracle Database 10g patch set interactively:

If you attempt to install this patch set in an Oracle home directory that does not contain an Oracle Database 10g release 10.2.0.1 or higher installation, Oracle Universal Installer displays a warning dialog with the following error:

OUI-10091: There are no patches that need to be applied from the patch set Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Patch Set 310.2.0.4

The Oracle Universal Installer does not allow the installation to proceed. Click OK, then click Cancel to end the installation.

1. Log in as the oracle user.

2. If you are not installing the software on the local computer, then run the following command on remote machine:


$ export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0

• C shell:

% setenv DISPLAY local_host:0.0

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#CJGFGEFC

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#CJAGAIAF

In this example, local_host is the host name or IP address of the computer that you want to use to display Oracle Universal Installer.

Now to enable X applications, run the following command on the machine that you want to use to display Oracle Universal Installer:

$ xhost + [fully_qualified_remote_host_name]

3. Enter the following commands to start Oracle Universal Installer, where patchset_directory is the directory where you unpacked the patch set software:

% cd patchset_directory/Disk1% ./runInstaller

4. On the Welcome screen, click Next.

5. On the Specify Home Details screen, select the name of the Oracle home that you want to update, or select the Path that you want to update from the list, then click Next.

6. If you are installing the patch set on an Oracle RAC cluster, click Next when the Selected Nodes screen appears.

7. On the Product-specific Prerequisite Checks screen, correct any reported errors, and click Next.

8. Enter details regarding the CSI Number, OracleMetaLink Account user name and Country code on the Oracle Configuration Manager Registration screen and click Next.

Note:

The registration and configuration can also be done manually after patchset installation.

The OCM registration page appears only while applying 10.2.0.4 patch over existing DB instances alone.

9. On the Summary screen, click Install.

This screen lists all of the patches available for installation.

10.When prompted, run the $ORACLE_HOME/root.sh script as the root user. If you are applying the patch set to an Oracle RAC installation, then run the root.sh script on each node of the cluster.

Note:

If you are applying this patch set to an Oracle Clusterware installation, then complete all of the steps displayed on the Oracle Universal Installer screen.

The Oracle Clusterware installation instructions displayed on the Oracle Universal Installer screen are also available in the

CRS_home/install/readme.txt file.

• When applying this patch set on an Oracle Clusterware home, Oracle Universal Installer prompts you to run the root102.sh script from $ORACLE_HOME/install. You must run this script as the root user on all nodes.

• Before you add a new node, ensure that you run rootpre.sh script as the root user on the new node.

11.On the End of Installation screen, click Exit, then click Yes to exit from Oracle Universal Installer.

8.2 Installing the Oracle Database 10g Patch Set Noninteractively

To install the Oracle Database 10g patch set noninteractively:

1. Copy the response file template provided in the response directory where you unpacked the patch set archive file.

2. Edit the values for all fields labeled as <Value Required> as described by the comments and examples in the template.

Note:

For Oracle RAC installations, make sure the CLUSTER_NODES variable specifies all of the nodes used in the original Oracle RAC installation.

3. To run Oracle Universal Installer, enter a command similar to the following, where response_file is the full path to the response file that you edited:

$ ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile response_file

4. After the installation, run the $ORACLE_HOME/root.sh script as the root user. If you are applying the patch set to an Oracle RAC installation, then run the root.sh script on each node of the cluster.

Note:

If you are applying this patch set to an Oracle Clusterware installation, then complete all the steps in the CRS_home/install/readme.txt file. You must run this script as the root user on all nodes.

9 Postinstallation TasksReview the information in this section before using the upgraded software. This section lists required

and optional postinstallation tasks, depending on the installation type and the products that you want to use.

• Upgrading Earlier Oracle Database to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4)

• Upgrading Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.x to Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.4

• Enabling Oracle Database Vault

• Running changePerm.sh Script on an Oracle Database Server Home

• Check the inventory at the end of the installAction log file for the base version installation (9.2). If Oracle Label Security is installed, Label Security is listed in the inventory section of the log file.

2. Use the following commands to check if Oracle Label Security is installed with the 9.2 database:

$ sqlplusSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:passwordSELECT * FROM V$OPTION WHERE PARAMETER = "ORACLE LABEL SECURITY";

If the command does not display any results, Oracle Label Security is not applied to the database and you can ignore this section. However, if the command returns some results, you must complete this section.

If you want to upgrade an Oracle9i release 9.2 preconfigured database, and you are not using Oracle Label Security, complete the following steps to avoid errors during the upgrade:

1. Use Oracle Universal Installer release 9.2 to install Oracle Label Security using the Custom installation type.

2. Run the $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catnools.sql script with the SYSDBA privilege to remove Oracle Label Security components from the database.

The following sections describe the output of the Pre-Upgrade Information Tool.

Database

This section displays global database information about the current database, such as the database name and release number before the database is upgraded.

Tablespaces

This section displays a list of tablespaces in the current database. For each tablespace, the tablespace name and minimum required size is displayed. In addition, a message is displayed if the tablespace is adequate for the upgrade. If the tablespace does not have enough free space, then space must be added to the tablespace in the current database. Tablespace adjustments must be made before the database is upgraded.

Update/Obsolete/Deprecated Parameters

These sections display a list of initialization parameters in the parameter file of the current database that should be adjusted before the database is upgraded. The adjustments must be made to the Oracle Database 10.2 init.ora or spfile.

Components

This section displays a list of database components that are upgraded or installed when the current database is upgraded.

9.3.2.2 Upgrading a Release 10.2 Database


Note:

If you do not run the catupgrd.sql script as described in this section and you start up a database for normal operation, then ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced errors will occur and the error ORA-39700: database must be opened with UPGRADE option will be in the alert log.


2. For Oracle RAC installations, start listener on each node of the cluster as follows:

$ srvctl start listener -n node

3. If you are using Automatic Storage Management, start the Automatic Storage Management instance.

4. For single-instance installations, start the listener as follows:

$ lsnrctl start

5. For single-instance installations, use SQL*Plus to log in to the database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges:

$ sqlplus /nolog SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_password

6. For Oracle RAC installations:

1. Use SQL*Plus to log in to the database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges:

$ sqlplus /nolog

SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password: SYS_passwordSQL> STARTUP NOMOUNT

2. Set the CLUSTER_DATABASE initialization parameter to FALSE:

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET CLUSTER_DATABASE=FALSE SCOPE=spfile;


SQL> SHUTDOWN

7. Enter the following SQL*Plus commands:

SQL> STARTUP UPGRADESQL> SPOOL patch.logSQL> @?/rdbms/admin/catupgrd.sqlSQL> SPOOL OFF

8. Review the patch.log file for errors and inspect the list of components that is displayed at the end of catupgrd.sql script.

This list provides the version and status of each SERVER component in the database.

9. If necessary, rerun the catupgrd.sql script after correcting any problems.

10.Restart the database:

SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATESQL> STARTUP

11.Run the utlrp.sql script to recompile all invalid PL/SQL packages now instead of when the packages are accessed for the first time. This step is optional but recommended.

SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql

Note:

When the 10.2.0.4 patch set is applied to an Oracle Database 10g Standard Edition database, there may be 54 invalid objects after the utlrp.sql script runs. These objects belong to the unsupported components and do not affect the database operation.

Ignore any messages indicating that the database contains invalid recycle bin objects similar to the following:

BIN$4lzljWIt9gfgMFeM2hVSoA==$0

12.Run the following command to check the status of all the components after the upgrade:

SQL> select comp_name, version, status from sys.dba_registry;

In the output of the preceding command, the status of all the components should be VALID for

a successful upgrade.

13.If you are using the Oracle Recovery Manager catalog, enter the following command:

$ rman catalog username/password@alias

14.For Oracle RAC installations:

1. Set the CLUSTER_DATABASE initialization parameter to TRUE:

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET CLUSTER_DATABASE=TRUE SCOPE=spfile;

2. Restart the database:

SQL> SHUTDOWNSQL> STARTUP

3. Start any database services that you want to use:


15.To configure and secure Enterprise Manager follow these steps:

Ensure the database and Listener are operational.

1. In the case of a single instance, execute

emca -upgrade db

2. In the case of Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC), execute

emca -upgrade db -cluster

Note:


9.3.2.3 Missing Components when Upgrading

When you upgrade Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.5) to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4), the diagnostics of the preupgrade utility script utlu102.sql may indicate that some database components on the 10g Companion CD should be installed. You should install these components from the Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.5) Companion CD before applying this patch set. If the catupgrd.sql script cannot upgrade a SERVER component because it was not installed from the Companion CD, then the status of the SERVER component in the patch.log file is reported as NO SCRIPT.

Note:

If the preupgrade script indicates the Server JAVA Virtual Machine's JAccelerator (NCOMP) or Oracle interMedia Image Accelerator should be

installed, but they are not installed before applying the patch set, then the patch.log file contains the status of their parent components as successfully upgraded to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) even though these components are still missing.

If you find any component, which was identified as missing by the preupgrade utility script, was not installed before running the catupgrd.sql script, then install the missing component from the Companion CD and run the catupgrd.sql script again.

9.4 Running changePerm.sh Script on an Oracle Database Server Home

Important:

Oracle recommends using the most restrictive file permissions possible for the given implementation. Perform these optional steps only after considering all security ramifications and only if you need to share this installation.

During patch set installation, all new files and directories are created with restricted access, by default. Users or third party applications with a different group identifier from that of the database, which try to access client-side utilities or libraries in the database home, will see permission errors when trying to access these files or directories. Perform the following steps to change the permissions:

1. Change to the install directory by using the following command:

$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/install

2. Run changePerm.sh and specify the patched server Oracle home location, before accessing client-side utilities or libraries in the database home.

Note:

If you are applying patch to Oracle RAC home, then you will need to run this script on all the nodes.

9.5 Enabling Oracle Database Vault

For installations with Oracle Database Vault, complete the following steps:


For a single-instance database, use the following commands:

sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> shutdown immediateSQL> STARTUP

For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) database, use the following commands:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl stop database -d db_name$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl start database -d db_name

2. Connect AS SYSDBA and run the following SQL statements:

SQL> DROP FUNCTION DVSYS.REALM_SDML_AUTHORIZED ;SQL> DROP PROCEDURE DVSYS.SYNCHRONIZE_POLICY_FOR_OBJECT;SQL> DECLARE CURSOR stmt IS SELECT u.name, o.name, r.pname FROM user$ u, obj$ o, rls$ r WHERE u.user# = o.owner# AND r.obj# = o.obj# AND bitand(r.stmt_type,65536) > 0; object_schema VARCHAR2(32) := NULL; object_name VARCHAR2(32) := NULL; policy_name VARCHAR2(32) := NULL; BEGIN OPEN stmt; LOOP FETCH stmt INTO object_schema, object_name, policy_name; EXIT WHEN stmt%NOTFOUND; DBMS_RLS.DROP_POLICY( '"'||object_schema||'"', '"'||object_name||'"', '"'||policy_name||'"'); END LOOP; CLOSE stmt; END; /

3. Run DVCA to reconfigure Database Vault. Use the following syntax:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dvca -action option -oh oracle_home -jdbc_str jdbc_connection_string -owner_account DV_owner_account_name [-acctmgr_account DV_account_manager_account_name] [-logfile ./dvca.log] [-nodecrypt]

Where:

- action: The action to perform. option creates the Database Vault schema objects, creates the DV_OWNER account and the optional DV_ACCTMGR account, and deploys the Database Vault Administrator application.

- oh: The Oracle home for the database

- jdbc_str: The JDBC connection string used to connect to the database. For example, jdbc:oracle:oci:@orcl1, where orcl1 is the net service name in the tnsnames.ora file ($ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora).

- owner_account: Oracle Database Vault Owner account name

- acctmgr_account: (Optional) Oracle Database Vault Account Manager user

- logfile: Optionally, specify a log file name and location. You can enter an absolute path or a path that is relative to the location of the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory

- nodecrypt: Reads plaintext passwords as passed on the command line. You must use this option if you are passing plaintext passwords to the command.

Note:

You are prompted to enter the SYS, Database Vault Owner, and Database Vault Account Manager passwords.

See Also:

Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide, 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Linux x86, Appendix C "Running DVCA After Creating a Database Vault Database" for more options available with the dvca -action option command

4. Run Oracle Database Vault Configuration Assistant (DVCA) by using the dvca -action enable option. This enables the Database Vault triggers. Use the following syntax:

dvca -action enable -service service_name -owner_account DV_owner_account_name [-logfile ./dvca.log] [-nodecrypt] Enter SYS password: sys_password Enter owner password: owner_password

See Step 6 for details of the options used in the command.

5. Lock the DVSYS account. Use the following SQL statements:

SQL> CONNECT SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> ALTER USER DVSYS ACCOUNT LOCK;

6. Shut down the database.

To stop a single-instance database, use the following commands:

sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> shutdown immediate

For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) database, use the following command:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl stop database -d db_name

7. Relink the Oracle executable to turn on the Oracle Database Vault option. Use the following commands:

cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib make -f ins_rdbms.mk dv_on cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin relink oracle

Note:

For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) database, you must repeat the preceding commands on all nodes.

8. Start the database.


sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> startup


$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl start database -d db_name

9. If you wish to disable connections with SYSDBA privileges, then re-create the password file with the nosysdba=y and force=y flags. Use the following syntax:

orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwSID password=password force=y nosysdba=y

Here SID is the Oracle system identifier (SID) of the database, and password is the password for the SYS account.

9.6 Configuring Oracle Configuration Manager in a Cloned Oracle Home

If you have installed and configured Oracle Configuration Manager in the original Oracle home directory, then complete the following procedure:

1. In the cloned Oracle home, remove all the subdirectories of the $ORACLE_HOME/ccr/hosts directory to remove the previously configured hosts.

2. In the cloned Oracle home, run the following command:

$ configCCR -a

If you have installed Oracle Configuration Manager in the original Oracle home but have not configured it, then run the following command to configure it in the cloned Oracle home:

$ setupCCR

10 Downgrading Oracle Database VaultDowngrading Oracle Database Vault from 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.x requires the following steps:

1. Follow the steps in section "Disabling Oracle Database Vault"


2. Follow the steps in section "Removing the Patch Set Software"

3. Follow the steps in section "Enabling Oracle Database Vault"

11 Removing the Patch Set SoftwareThe catdwgrd.sql script enables the user to restore the Oracle Database installation of the database back to the original 10.2 release that the user backed up before applying the patch set. The catdwgrd.sql script is run in the 10.2.0.4 Oracle home to perform necessary downgrade actions. After the 10.2.0.x release is restored, the catrelod.sql script is run from 10.2.0.x Oracle home to reload the 10.2.0.x release packages and views.

See one of the following sections for information about how to remove the patch set software based on the Oracle Database installation type:

• Removing the Patch Set Software for Single Instance Installation

• Removing the Patch Set Software for Oracle RAC Installation

Note:

• Oracle Clusterware downgrade is not supported.

• You can run a higher version of Oracle Clusterware software with a lower version of Oracle Database.

11.1 Removing the Patch Set Software for Single Instance Installation

Perform the following steps for removing the patch set from the 10.2.0.4 patch release:


$ sqlplus /NOLOG SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBA Enter password:SYS_password SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE SQL> EXIT

2. Take a backup of the following file in 10.2.0.4 Oracle home directory:

$ ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catrelod.sql$ ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora


$ cd $ORACLE_HOME$ sqlplus /NOLOGSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_passwordSQL> STARTUP DOWNGRADESQL> SPOOL downgrade.outSQL> @?/rdbms/admin/catdwgrd.sqlSQL> SPOOL OFFSQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATESQL> EXIT

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=555577.1#CJGIJHBH

4. Review the downgrade.out file for errors.

5. Restore the Oracle10g installation and Central Inventory (see /etc/oraInst.loc) that you backed up before applying the patch set.

6. After restoring the original Oracle home, copy the saved version of catrelod.sql script into the restored Oracle home rdbms/admin directory. Also copy the saved version of 10.2.0.4/network/admin/tnsnames.ora directory into the restored Oracle home /network/admin/tnsnames.ora directory, and then perform the following steps:

$ sqlplus /NOLOGSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_passwordSQL> STARTUP DOWNGRADESQL> SPOOL catrelod.outSQL> @?/rdbms/admin/catrelod.sqlSQL> SPOOL OFFSQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE

7. Review the catrelod.out file for errors.

8. Start the database and recompile the remaining invalid objects:

SQL> STARTUPSQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql

11.2 Removing the Patch Set Software for Oracle RAC Installation



$ sqlplus /NOLOG SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_password


Note:

If the system uses an initialization parameter file, change the value of the CLUSTER_DATABASE initialization parameters to TRUE in the initialization parameter file (initsid.ora).


3. Exit SQL*Plus and shut down the database:


4. Take a backup of the following files in 10.2.0.4 Oracle home directory:



$ sqlplus /NOLOGSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_passwordSQL> STARTUP DOWNGRADESQL> SPOOL catdwgrd.outSQL> @?/rdbms/admin/catdwgrd.sqlSQL> SPOOL OFFSQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATESQL> EXIT

6. Restore the Oracle10g installation and Central Inventory (see /etc/oraInst.loc) that you backed up before applying the patch set on both the nodes.




Note:

Ignore the ORA-29844 and ORA-31085 errors found in the catrelod.out file. These errors are tracked with Oracle bugs 4758112 and 4425495 respectively.

After reloading the 10.2.0.2 release, the version numbers for Oracle Data Mining and Oracle OLAP Analytic Workspace remain at 10.2.0.4. These issues are tracked with Oracle bugs 4758695 and 4751917.



10.Set the CLUSTER_DATABASE initialization parameter to TRUE:

Note:

If the system uses an initialization parameter file, change the value of the

CLUSTER_DATABASE initialization parameters to TRUE in the initialization parameter file (initsid.ora).

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET CLUSTER_DATABASE=TRUE SCOPE=spfile;SQL> SHUTDOWNSQL> EXIT

11.Start the database:

$ srvctl start database -d db_name

Note:

Option for removing Oracle Clusterware patch set is not available in 10.2.0.4. This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 5598010.

12 Removing Configuration and Deleting CCR for OCM Configured Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4)If you have installed CCR, then you should remove it manually. Complete the following steps to remove CCR, if it was configured manually after installing Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4):

1. Create a response file with following entries:

oracle.sysman.ccr|b_localInstall=trueoracle.sysman.ccr|b_acceptLicense=true

2. Change to the $ORACLE_HOME/oui/bin directory.

3. Run the following command to remove the ccr directory from the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) Oracle home:

runConfig.sh ORACLE_HOME=OH ACTION=deconfigure MODE=perform RERUN=trueCOMPONENT_XML={ccr_xml} RESPONSE_FILE=rsp_file_location

In the preceding command, ccr_xml is available in the $ORACLE_HOME/inventory/ContentsXML/ConfigXML directory and rsp_file_location is the directory where the response file was created. To display the ccr_xml file, run the ls oracle*ccr.10*_0.xml command in the $ORACLE_HOME/inventory/ContentsXML/ConfigXML directory.

14.1 Oracle Scheduler External Jobs

If you use Oracle Scheduler, that is, (DBMS_SCHEDULER) external jobs on Linux, and have modified the owner or group of the extjob executable, then this patch set will reset these changes.

Beginning with Oracle Database release 10.2.0.4, the supported way to change the user or group that external jobs run as is to modify the externaljob.ora file in the rdbms/admin directory. This file is owned by the root user and only the root user can modify this file. Changes to this file take effect immediately and do not require restarting the database.

14.2 Upgrading Preconfigured Standard Edition Databases

If you are using an Oracle Database release 10.2.0.2 preconfigured Standard Edition database, then the database contains the following components that are not supported by the Standard Edition:

• Oracle Data Mining

• Oracle OLAP Catalog

• Oracle OLAP Analytic Workspace

• Oracle OLAP API

• Oracle Spatial

The catupgrd.sql script does not run the patch scripts for these components. It sets the component

STATUS to OPTION OFF in the DBA_REGISTRY view. The original versions of the dictionary objects for the components remain in the database but the catupgrd.sql script does not apply the patch to them.

14.3 The Welcome Page of Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant Displays Incorrect Version

The Welcome page of Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant displays incorrect version of Oracle 9i. Oracle 9i Release 9.1.0 should read as Oracle 9i Release 9.0.1.

This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 6695802.

14.4 Non-ASCII Characters on Help Navigation Are Not Displayed Properly with UTF-8 encoding

Non-ASCII characters on Help Navigation are not displayed properly and appear to be distorted for most Java GUI conventional components when the operating system locale is UTF-8 enabled, such as Oracle Database Configuration Assistant, Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant, NetCA, NetMgr, Oracle Directory Manager, Oracle WM, and Locale Builder. The issue slightly impacts five translated European languages and three Asian languages, except Japanese. This issue only affects the help navigation tree and has no effects on the help topic window.

Workaround:

UTF-8 is the default encoding of the operating system locale on Linux 4.0 and for the European languages on Linux 3.0. You should change the default locale to the one with native encoding to see the correct characters on the Help Navigation tree. The following is the list of the Oracle recommended locales:

• de_DE.iso88591 for German

• fr_FR.iso88591 for French

• it_IT.iso88591 for Italian

• es_ES.iso88591 for Spanish

• pt_BR.iso88591 for Brazilian Portuguese

• zh_CN.gb18030 for Simplified Chinese

• zh_TW.big5 for Traditional Chinese

• ko_KR.euckr for Korean

Complete one of the following tasks to change the locale:

• Run the following commands to alter the locale on a terminal session temporally:

$ LANG=locale$ export LANG

Use this terminal to start the components to see only the help topics. You should start components for other tasks in other terminals that have the default locale.

• To alter the system default locale as the operating system administrator, edit the UTF-8 entry to a native encoding in the /etc/sysconfig/i18n file. Then reboot the computer.

• To alter the locale in the user login environment file, such as .bash_profile. Add the following lines to the login profile file:

$ LANG=locale$ export LANG

With the modified operating system locale encoding, the operating system file system related operations that use non-ASCII characters are affected. For example, creating or renaming a file with non-ASCII file name on operating system is affected by this modification. If you want to keep consistency with the default operating system locale encoding in the file system operations, you should avoid using non-ASCII characters when the workaround second or third is applied, or apply the first workaround to see the help only on the changed locale.

This issue is addressed in Oracle Database 11g (11.1.0.6). Therefore, Oracle recommends you to alter the system default locale or the locale in the user login environment file back to the default encoding (UTF-8) after Oracle Server is upgraded to Oracle Database 11g.

This is tracked with Oracle bug 6503286.

14.5 Running Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant on a Single Node Oracle RAC Installation

Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant fails during postinstallation upgrade on a single node and displays the following error message:

ORA-32001: write SPFILE requested but no SPFILE specified at startup

Workaround:

1. Start the database with the NOMOUNT option:

$ sqlplus /NOLOGSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_passwordSQL> STARTUP NOMOUNT

2. Create SPFILE from PFILE by entering the following command where pfile_location is usually $ORACLE_BASE/admin/db_name/pfile for Optimal Flexible Architecture compliant database:

SQL> CREATE SPFILE=SHARED_LOCATION/SPFILE.ORA FROM PFILE=pfile_location/init.ora


SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATESQL> EXIT

4. Clear the contents of PFILE located at ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\dbs\initsid.ora and set the value of SPFILE as SHARED_LOCATION\SPFILE.ORA.

5. Run Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant:

$ $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbua

Note:

This workaround will resolve the issue faced during add node operation from single node. This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 5585075.


14.6 Refresh From OracleMetaLink Job Fails in Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control

If you attempt the Refresh from OracleMetaLink job in Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control, then it displays the following error:

Exception trying to access the repository. java.sql.SQLException:ORA-12899: value too large for column"SYSMAN"."MGMT_ARU_PRODUCTS"."PRODUCT_NAME" (actual: 54, maximum: 50)

Workaround:

None. Oracle will release a one-off patch to address this issue.


14.7 The sysman Related Errors Are Listed in the oraInstall.err File

When you use Oracle Universal Installer to remove Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4), some sysman related errors are listed in the oraInstall.err file.

Workaround:

These are benign errors and can be ignored.


14.8 Errors Displayed When Upgrading from Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4)

When upgrading Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) to Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6), the following errors are displayed:

ORA-06550: line 5, column 35:ORA-06550: line 5, column 1:ORA-00001: unique constraint(SYSMAN.PARAMETERS_PRIMARY_KEY) violatedORA-06512: at "SYSMAN.MGMT_TIME_SYNC", line 108Oracle_Server.log:ORA-06512: at "SYSMAN.MGMT_TIME_SYNC", line 166Oracle_Server.log:ORA-06512: at line 2

Workaround:

These errors do not result in any data loss. Therefore, you can ignore these errors.


14.9 Incorrect Database Version is Displayed on the Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control Page After Downgrading

If you downgrade the database from Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) to an earlier version, Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control may not restart after the downgrade. However, the emctl start dbconsole command may appear to have started the database console, but you cannot access the database console pages. The emctl status dbconsole command displays that the database console in fact has not started.

Workaround:

This issue is most likely a result Oracle bug 4505434, which has been fixed in this release but exists in earlier releases. To address this issue, apply the patch for bug 4505434 for the database console version you downgraded to and restart the database console.

This issues is tracked with Oracle bug 6649954.

14.10 Benign Entry in the Silent Log File After Cloning the Database

An entry similar to the following is logged in the silent log file immediately after you clone the database:

File not found: $ Cloned_Oracle_home/ccr/new_ccr/ccr/bin/setupCCR

Workaround:

This entry in the log file is not a error and can be ignored.This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 6721838.

14.11 Incorrect Nodes Displayed in Cloned Oracle Clusterware

On a cloned Oracle Clusterware, the new node does not display the correct node from which you should run a command.

Workaround:

Run the following command to address this issue:

$ ./runInstaller -clone -silent ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_HOME_NAME \ =Oracle_home_name n_storageTypeVDSK=2 n_storageTypeOCR=2 \"sl_tableList={first_node:first_node_priv:first_node-vip, \second_node:second_node_priv:second_node-vip}" \s_ocrpartitionlocation=location_of_ocr s_votingdisklocation=location_of_voting_disk \"ret_PrivIntrList={private_interconect_list}" INVENTORY_LOCATION=central_inventory_location -noConfig

Note:

Change the clone command parameter sl_tableList to have the local node as the first entry.


14.12 Native Full Outer Join Implementation

To enable a new native full outer join implementation in the database, a user has to set the following underscore parameter:

_optimizer_native_full_outer_join =force

You can set this parameter for the system or for a specific session.

Besides dramatically improving the performance of a full outer join, the new implementation fixes a variety of issues, for examples a variety of ORA-942 (table or view doesn't exists) and ORA-4331 (unable to allocate string bytes of shared memory) errors.


14.13 Incorrect Oracle Workspace Manager Displayed After Upgrading to Oracle Database 11g

After upgrading Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) to Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6), the Oracle Workspace Manager version is displayed as 10.2.0.4.3.


14.14 ASM Error is Displayed When Creating 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1) Database on Oracle Clusterware (10.2.0.4)

If you are installing and creating an Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1) database, which uses ASM storage, after upgrading Oracle Clusterware to version 10.2.0.4, then the following error may be displayed:

An error occurred while executing ASM queries.

Workaround:

This error is benign. Click Continue to proceed with the installation. There is no loss of functionality due to this error.


14.15 SETUPCCR Fails if Preset JAVA_HOME Points to an Invalid JDK Home

When CCR is manually configured using setupCCR from a terminal on which JAVA_HOME is pre-defined and if it points to an invalid location or JRE_HOME instead of a valid JDK_HOME, the command fails.

Workaround:

Unset JAVA_HOME and re-invoke setupCCR.

14.16 In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Default Makefile Version does not Support Default DBNAME

The default Makefile version present in the RHEL5 machine is make 3.81. With this version, the default dbname is not recognized by those Oracle clients which are directly called from the Makefile.

Workaround:

You can use either of the following approaches:

• Use Makefile version 3.79

• Use @dbname whenever username/password is used in the Makefile

14.17 Oracle Clusterware Patching May Encounter Write Errors

When applying the 10.2.0.4 Oracle Clusterware patch set on Linux 32 platforms, under certain circumstances, the following error may occur:

Error in writing to file 'Oracle_Home/jdk/jre/bin/java'

This may happen more frequently if you are running Oracle Clusterware version 10.2 in conjunction with Oracle9i Oracle Real Application (RAC) databases. If you encounter this error, you need to shutdown the GSD on each node of the cluster and then proceed with the installation. Shutting down the GSD will have no impact on any running database instances on the cluster. To do this, perform the following steps (all steps can be performed from a single node):

1. Set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to the Oracle Clusterware home.

2. Issue the following command to get the list of nodes in the cluster:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/olsnodes

3. Issue the following command, once for each node in the cluster:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/crs_stop ora.nodename.gsd

This procedure will shut down the GSD on each node of the cluster without shutting down the rest of the Oracle Clusterware stack, or affecting any of the running database instances on the cluster. Once this is done, proceed with the Oracle Clusterware patchset installation as usual.

Example:

Suppose you are patching a 2 node cluster with node names host1 and host2. The procedure you need to follow is the following:

1. Log in to host1.

2. Set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to your CRS Oracle Home.

3. Run $ORACLE_HOME/bin/olsnodes. This command will return:

host1

host2

4. For each node returned by olsnodes, run the command to stop the GSD. In this example one would need to run 2 different commands (all from host1):

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/crs_stop ora.host1.gsd$ORACLE_HOME/bin/crs_stop ora.host2.gsd

• Documentation Accessibility

1 Patch Set OverviewPatch sets are a mechanism for delivering fully tested and integrated product fixes. Patch sets provide bug fixes only; they do not include new functionality and they do not require certification on the target system.

Patch sets include all of the libraries that have been rebuilt to implement the bug fixes in the set. All of the fixes in the patch set have been tested and are certified to work with each other. Because the patch set includes only low impact patches, it does not require you to certify applications or tools against the server.

You can apply the Oracle Database release 10.2.0.4 patch set to the following Oracle Database 10g release 2 installations:

• Oracle Database

• Oracle Real Application Clusters

• Oracle Database Client

• Oracle Database Companion CD

• Oracle Clusterware

• Oracle Database Vault

For a list of products included in this patch set, see the "Patch Set Components" section.

2 Components of This Patch SetThe following are the updated components of this patch set:

• Up to January 2008 CPU is included in this patch set.

• Platform-specific bug fixes as listed in the "Fixed Platform-Specific Bugs" section

• Generic bug fixes as listed in the List of Bugs fixed document

7.1.1 Upgrading Oracle E-Business Suite Databases

If you are an Oracle E-Business Suite customer and you want to upgrade the Oracle E-Business Suite release 11i database server to this patch set, then you must check the latest certification status and Interoperability Notes available on the OracleMetaLink Web site:


7.1.2 Upgrading Installations that use Physical or Logical Standby Databases

Before applying this patch set to an Oracle Database 10.2.0.x installation that uses one or more physical or logical standby databases, review the following OracleMetaLink documents:

• For information about physical standby databases, review document 278641.1.

• For information about logical standby databases, review document 278643.1.

These documents are available on the OracleMetaLink Web site:


7.1.3 Upgrading Installations that use Java Virtual Machine or Oracle interMedia

If any of the databases use Java Virtual Machine or Oracle interMedia, then install the Oracle Database 10g Products installation type from the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD before installing the 10.2.0.4 patch set. For information about installing the Oracle Database 10g Products installation type from the Companion CD, see the Oracle Database Companion CD Installation Guide for the platform. This installation type includes the Natively Compiled Java Library files to improve Java performance. If you do not install the Natively Compiled Java Library files, the ORA-29558: JAccelerator (NCOMP) not installed error occurs when a database that uses Java Virtual Machine is upgraded to the patch release.

See Also:

OracleMetaLink document 293658.1 for more information about the ORA-29558: JAccelerator (NCOMP) not installed error

7.1.4 Upgrading Oracle Clusterware

The Oracle Clusterware software must be at the same or newer level as the Oracle software in the Oracle RAC Oracle home. Therefore, you should always upgrade Oracle Clusterware before you upgrade Oracle RAC. This patch does not allow you to upgrade Oracle RAC before you upgrade Oracle Clusterware.

7.1.5 Notes to Oracle OLAP Users

To apply this patch set, Oracle OLAP users should ensure that the base release is the Enterprise Edition of 10.2.0.x with the Oracle OLAP option installed. Oracle highly recommends the Data Warehouse configuration type to optimize the database for Oracle OLAP.



7.1.6 Disabling Oracle Database Vault

Complete the steps in this section before upgrading Oracle Database Vault from 10.2.0.x to 10.2.0.4 or downgrading Oracle Database Vault from 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.x:

1. Re-create and replace the password file, in order to log in to an Oracle Database Vault instance as a SYS user with SYSDBA privilege:

$ orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwsid password=syspasswd force=y nosysdba=norapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME\dbs\orapwsid password=syspasswd force=y nosysdba=n

Note:

The SYS connection as SYSDBA is disabled in a default Oracle Database Vault installation. Without enabling SYSDBA, you cannot unlock DVSYS in Step 6 that follows.


For Oracle RAC:

$ srvctl stop database -d db_name -c "SYS/SYS_password as SYSDBA"


SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSOPEREnter password: SYS_passwordSQL> SHUTDOWN

3. Turn off Oracle Database Vault.

4. Re-link the Oracle database software with dv_off:

Note:

For Oracle RAC, you must run the following commands on all the nodes.

$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib$ make -f ins_rdbms.mk dv_off$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin$ relink oracle

5. Start the database:

For Oracle RAC:

$ srvctl start database -d db_name "SYS/SYS_password as SYSDBA"



https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=559255.1#BGBGHACH

SQL> STARTUP

6. Unlock the DVSYS account and set the password:

SQL> ALTER USER DVSYS ACCOUNT UNLOCK;SQL> ALTER USER DVSYS IDENTIFIED BY DVSYS;

7. Disable the Oracle Database Vault triggers:

Run Oracle Database Vault Configuration Assistant (DVCA) by using the dvca -action disable option. This disables the Database Vault triggers. Use the following syntax:

dvca -action disable-service service_name-owner_account DV_owner_account_name[-logfile ./dvca.log][-nodecrypt]

Enter SYS password: sys_passwordEnter owner password: owner_password

7.2 Identify the Oracle Database Installation

This is not a complete software distribution. You must install it in an existing Oracle Database 10g Oracle home. To identify Oracle home directories, view the/etc/oratab file. You should then cross-check this by executing

opatch lsinventory -all

If you are installing this patch set on an existing Oracle Real Application Cluster 10g release 10.2.0.x installation, you must run Oracle Universal Installer from the same node from which the Oracle Database software was installed.

7.3 Check Postrelease Updates

Before installing this patch set in a production environment, review document 316900.1, ALERT: Oracle 10g release 2 (10.2) Support Status and Alerts, available on the OracleMetaLink Web site:


To locate this document:




This document is created by Oracle Support Services and provides information about the status of issues discovered after this patch set was released. If you are unable to access this site, then contact Oracle Support Services before installing this patch set in a production environment.

7.4 Download and Extract the Installation Software

To download and extract the patch set installation software:


1. Download the p6810189_10204_LINUX-x86-64.zip patch set installation archive to a directory that is not the Oracle home directory or under the Oracle home directory.

2. Enter the following command to unzip and extract the installation files:

$ unzip p6810189_10204_LINUX-x86-64.zip

7.5 Update Oracle Time Zone Definitions

The 10.2.0.4 patch set includes an update to the Oracle time zone definitions to Version 4. This version of the time zone definitions includes the changes to daylight saving time in the USA in 2007 and other updates.

In the Oracle database the TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE (TSLTZ) and TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE (TSTZ) data types and the TZ_OFFSET function select the time zone information from the time zone files.

It may be necessary to take action on existing TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE (TSLTZ) and TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE (TSTZ) data or to re-apply DST patches afterwards.

For full overview please see OracleMetaLink document 553812.1 Actions for the DSTv4 update in the 10.2.0.4 patchset.

1. When patching from a lower 10.2 release or upgrading from 10.1.0.X directly to 10.2.0.4, check the current version of the Oracle time zone definitions with the following command:

SELECT version FROM v$timezone_file;

• If this query reports version 4, no action is required; in this case, continue with steps described in section 7.6.

• If this reports a version lower or higher then 4, see OracleMetalink document 553812.1 Actions for the DSTv4 update in the Release 10.2.0.4 patchset.

2. On upgrading from Release 9i directly to Release 10.2.0.4, see OracleMetaLink document 553812.1 Actions for the DSTv4 update in the 10.2.0.4 patchset.

3. On upgrading from Release 8.1.7 directly to Release 10.2.0.4, no action is required because Release 8.1.7 has no timezone data stored; in this case continue with steps described in section 7.6.

7.6 Set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID Environment Variables

Enter the following commands to set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID environment variables:


$ export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin/OPatch:$PATH:$ ORACLE_HOME=Oracle_home$ ORACLE_SID=sid$ export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID

• C shell:

$ export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin/OPatch:$PATH:% setenv ORACLE_HOME Oracle_home% setenv ORACLE_SID sid

In these examples, Oracle_home is the Oracle home directory where the Oracle Database 10g installation that you want to upgrade is installed, and sid is the system identifier of the database that you want to upgrade. For Oracle RAC installations, sid is generally the sid prefix and the instance number. For example, ORCL1.

7.7 Stop All Processes

Go to the following sections based on the Oracle Database installation type:

• Stopping All Processes for a Single Instance Installation

• Stopping All Processes for an Oracle Clusterware Installation

• Stopping All Processes for an Oracle RAC Installation

See also:

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=559255.1#BGBICFHJ

3. Shut down all Oracle RAC instances on the node on which you intend to perform the rolling upgrade. To shut down Oracle RAC instances on individual nodes in the database, enter the following command where db_name is the name of the database:

$ srvctl stop instance -d db_name -i inst_name

4. If an Automatic Storage Management instance is present, then shut down the Automatic Storage Management instance on the node on which you intend to perform the rolling upgrade. To shut down an Automatic Storage Management instance, enter the following command where node is the name of the node where the Automatic Storage Management instance is running:


5. Stop all node applications on the node on which you intend to perform the rolling upgrade. To stop node applications running on a node, log in as the root user and enter the following command, where node is the name of the node where the applications are running:


6. Perform the steps mentioned in Section 8.

Note:







7. To upgrade the rest of the nodes, go to the next node and perform Steps 1 to 5 and then log in as the root user and perform the following steps:

1. Enter the following command to shut down the Oracle Clusterware:




https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=559255.1#BGBJFJDA

Note:

Rolling upgrade is not supported on Shared Oracle home.

7.7.2.2 Non Rolling Upgrade

For non rolling upgrade, Oracle Clusterware needs to be shut down completely.

Complete the following steps:

Note:

You must perform these steps in the order listed.



Note:




3. Shut down all Oracle RAC instances on all cluster nodes by entering the following command where db_name is the name of the database:


4. If Automatic Storage Management instance is present, then shut down Automatic Storage Management instances on all cluster nodes by entering the following command where node is the name of the node where the Automatic Storage Management instance is running:


5. Stop all node applications on all cluster nodes by entering the following command as the root user, where node is the name of the node where the applications are running:


6. Shut down the Oracle Clusterware processes by entering the following command on all nodes as the root user:


7. Complete the steps mentioned in Section 8.

Note:







7.7.3 Stopping All Processes for an Oracle RAC Installation

Shut down the following Oracle Database 10g processes before installing the patch set:



Note:




3. Shut down all Oracle RAC instances on the nodes, which run from the Oracle home on which


you are going to apply the patch set. To shut down all Oracle RAC instances for a database, enter the following command where db_name is the name of the database:


4. If Automatic Storage Management instance is present, then shut down all Automatic Storage Management instances on all nodes. To shut down an Automatic Storage Management instance, enter the following command where node is the name of the node where the Automatic Storage Management instance is running:


This needs to be done only when patching the home from where ASM runs. It is recommended that ASM run from a different ORACLE_HOME than the database.

5. Stop any listeners that are running from the Oracle home that you are patching on all nodes. To stop the listener running on a node, enter the following command, where node is the name of the node where the listener is running:

$ srvctl stop listener -n node [-l listenername]

Note:

Using a logical standby database, you can upgrade Oracle Database software and patch sets with almost no downtime. Using Data Guard SQL Apply, you can perform a rolling upgrade of the Oracle Database software from release 10.2.0.1 to the current patch set release. During a rolling upgrade, you can run different releases of Oracle Database on the primary and logical standby databases, while you upgrade them, one at a time, incurring minimal downtime on the primary database.

See also:

Chapter 11, "Using SQL Apply to Upgrade the Oracle Database" of Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration.

7.8 Back Up the System

Oracle recommends that you create a backup of the Oracle Inventory, Oracle 10g home and Oracle 10g Database before you install the patch set. If you are planning to apply this patch to Oracle RAC, ensure that you create a backup of these components on all nodes before applying the patch.

See also:

Oracle Database Backup and Recovery User's Guide for more information.

8 Installation TasksYou can install the patch set either interactively or noninteractively. See one of the following sections for information about how to complete the installation:

Note:

If you also plan to apply this patch to Oracle Clusterware, ensure that you apply the patch to Oracle Clusterware before applying it to Oracle Database. This is because Oracle Clusterware should always be at the same or later version as the database.

• If the DST version in 7.5 was 4, no action is required.

• If f the DST version in 7.5 was higher than 4, reapply the version of DST patches as described in OracleMetaLink document 553812.1 Actions for the DSTv4 update in the 10.2.0.4 patchset.

• If the DST version in 7.5 was lower then 4, restore TSTZ data from backup (if any). For more information, see OracleMetaLink document 553812.1 Actions for the DSTv4 update in the 10.2.0.4 patchset.

• If you are upgrading from Release 8.1.7 directly to Release 10.2.0.4, no action is required.

9.2 Upgrading Earlier Oracle Database to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4)

Review the following sections before upgrading an earlier Database to Oracle Database 10g release 2 (10.2.0.4):

• Upgrading Earlier Oracle Database Releases to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4)

• Upgrading a Release 9.2 Database Not Using Oracle Label Security

9.2.1 Upgrading Earlier Oracle Database Releases to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4)

For information about upgrading Oracle Databases from an earlier Oracle Database (Oracle8i, Oracle9i, or Oracle Database 10g), see Oracle Database Upgrade Guide.

If you are upgrading an Oracle RAC database, refer to Oracle Real Application Clusters Administration Guide as well.

9.2.2 Upgrading a Release 9.2 Database Not Using Oracle Label Security

To find if Oracle Label Security is in the installation, complete the following steps:

1. You can use one of the following methods check if Oracle Label Security is installed:

• If the following script exists on the computer, Oracle Label Security is installed:

$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catnools.sql

• Check the inventory at the end of the installAction log file for the base version installation (9.2). If Oracle Label Security is installed, Label Security is listed in the inventory section of the log file.

2. Use the following commands to check if Oracle Label Security is installed with the 9.2 database:

$ sqlplusSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBA

If you are upgrading database manually, then you should analyze it by running the Pre-Upgrade Information Tool.

The Pre-Upgrade Information Tool is a SQL script that ships with Oracle Database 10.2. Complete the following procedure to run the Pre-Upgrade Information Tool:

1. Start the database in the UPGRADE mode:

SQL> STARTUP UPGRADE

2. Set the system to spool results to a log file for later analysis:

SQL> SPOOL upgrade_info.log

3. Run the Pre-Upgrade Information Tool:

SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlu102i.sql

4. Turn off the spooling of script results to the log file:

SQL> SPOOL OFF

Check the output of the Pre-Upgrade Information Tool in the upgrade_info.log file. The following is an example of the output generated by the Pre-Upgrade Information Tool:

The following sections describe the output of the Pre-Upgrade Information Tool.

Database

This section displays global database information about the current database, such as the database name and release number before the database is upgraded.

Tablespaces

This section displays a list of tablespaces in the current database. For each tablespace, the tablespace name and minimum required size is displayed. In addition, a message is displayed if the tablespace is adequate for the upgrade. If the tablespace does not have enough free space, then space must be added to the tablespace in the current database. Tablespace adjustments must be made before the database is upgraded.

Update/Obsolete/Deprecated Parameters

These sections display a list of initialization parameters in the parameter file of the current database that should be adjusted before the database is upgraded. The adjustments must be made to the Oracle Database 10.2 init.ora or spfile.

Components

This section displays a list of database components that are upgraded or installed when the current database is upgraded.

9.3.2.2 Upgrading a Release 10.2 Database


Note:

If you do not run the catupgrd.sql script as described in this section and you start up a database for normal operation, then ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced errors will occur and the error ORA-39700: database must be opened with UPGRADE option will be in the alert log.


2. For Oracle RAC installations, start listener on each node of the cluster as follows:

$ srvctl start listener -n node

3. If you are using Automatic Storage Management, start the Automatic Storage Management instance.

4. For single-instance installations, start the listener as follows:

$ lsnrctl start

5. For single-instance installations, use SQL*Plus to log in to the database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges:


Users of single-instance installations now proceed to step 7.

6. For Oracle RAC installations:


$ sqlplus /nolog SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password: SYS_passwordSQL> STARTUP NOMOUNT




SQL> SHUTDOWN


SQL> STARTUP UPGRADESQL> SPOOL patch.logSQL> @?/rdbms/admin/catupgrd.sqlSQL> SPOOL OFF

8. Review the patch.log file for errors and inspect the list of components that is displayed at the end of catupgrd.sql script.

This list provides the version and status of each SERVER component in the database.

9. If necessary, rerun the catupgrd.sql script after correcting any problems.

10.Restart the database:


11.Run the utlrp.sql script to recompile all invalid PL/SQL packages now instead of when the packages are accessed for the first time. This step is optional but recommended.

SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql

Note:

When the 10.2.0.4 patch set is applied to an Oracle Database 10g Standard Edition database, there may be 54 invalid objects after the utlrp.sql script runs. These objects belong to the unsupported components and do not affect the database operation.

Ignore any messages indicating that the database contains invalid recycle bin objects similar to the following:

BIN$4lzljWIt9gfgMFeM2hVSoA==$0

12.Run the following command to check the status of all the components after the upgrade:

SQL> SELECT COMP_NAME, VERSION, STATUS FROM SYS.DBA_REGISTRY;

In the output of the preceding command, the status of all the components should be VALID for a successful upgrade.

13.If you are using the Oracle Recovery Manager catalog, enter the following command:

$ rman catalog username/password@alias

14.For Oracle RAC installations:


SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET CLUSTER_DATABASE=TRUE SCOPE=spfile;



3. Start any database services that you want to use:


15.To configure and secure Enterprise Manager follow these steps:

Ensure the database and Listener are operational.

1. In the case of a single instance, execute

emca -upgrade db

2. In the case of Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC), execute

emca -upgrade db -cluster

Note:


9.3.2.3 Missing Components When Upgrading

When you upgrade Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.5) to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4), the diagnostics of the preupgrade utility script utlu102.sql may indicate that some database components on the 10g Companion CD should be installed. You should install these components from the Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.5) Companion CD before applying this patch set. If the catupgrd.sql script cannot upgrade a SERVER component because it was not installed from the Companion CD, then the status of the SERVER component in the patch.log file is reported as NO SCRIPT.

Note:

If the preupgrade script indicates the Server JAVA Virtual Machine's JAccelerator (NCOMP) or Oracle interMedia Image Accelerator should be installed, but they are not installed before applying the patch set, then the patch.log file contains the status of their parent components as successfully upgraded to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) even though these components are still missing.

If you find any component, which was identified as missing by the preupgrade utility script, was not installed before running the catupgrd.sql script, then install the missing component from the

Companion CD and run the catupgrd.sql script again.

9.4 Running changePerm.sh Script on an Oracle Database Server Home

Important:

Oracle recommends using the most restrictive file permissions possible for the given implementation. Perform these optional steps only after considering all security ramifications and only if you need to share this installation.

During patch set installation, all new files and directories are created with restricted access, by default. Users or third party applications with a different group identifier from that of the database, which try to access client-side utilities or libraries in the database home, will see permission errors when trying to access these files or directories. Perform the following steps to change the permissions:

1. Change to the install directory by using the following command:

$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/install

2. Run changePerm.sh and specify the patched server Oracle home location, before accessing client-side utilities or libraries in the database home.

Note:

If you are applying patch to Oracle RAC home, then you will need to run this script on all the nodes.

9.5 Enabling Oracle Database Vault

For installations with Oracle Database Vault, complete the following steps:



sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATESQL> STARTUP

For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) database, use the following commands:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl stop database -d db_name$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl start database -d db_name

2. Connect AS SYSDBA and run the following SQL statements:

SQL> DROP FUNCTION DVSYS.REALM_SDML_AUTHORIZED ;SQL> DROP PROCEDURE DVSYS.SYNCHRONIZE_POLICY_FOR_OBJECT;SQL> DECLARE

CURSOR stmt IS SELECT u.name, o.name, r.pname FROM user$ u, obj$ o, rls$ r WHERE u.user# = o.owner# AND r.obj# = o.obj# AND bitand(r.stmt_type,65536) > 0; object_schema VARCHAR2(32) := NULL; object_name VARCHAR2(32) := NULL; policy_name VARCHAR2(32) := NULL; BEGIN OPEN stmt; LOOP FETCH stmt INTO object_schema, object_name, policy_name; EXIT WHEN stmt%NOTFOUND; DBMS_RLS.DROP_POLICY( '"'||object_schema||'"', '"'||object_name||'"', '"'||policy_name||'"'); END LOOP; CLOSE stmt; END; /

3. Run DVCA to reconfigure Database Vault. Use the following syntax:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dvca -action option -oh oracle_home -jdbc_str jdbc_connection_string -owner_account DV_owner_account_name [-acctmgr_account DV_account_manager_account_name] [-logfile ./dvca.log] [-nodecrypt]

Where:

- action: The action to perform. option creates the Database Vault schema objects, creates the DV_OWNER account and the optional DV_ACCTMGR account, and deploys the Database Vault Administrator application.

- oh: The Oracle home for the database

- jdbc_str: The JDBC connection string used to connect to the database. For example, jdbc:oracle:oci:@orcl1, where orcl1 is the net service name in the tnsnames.ora file ($ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora).

- owner_account: Oracle Database Vault Owner account name

- acctmgr_account: (Optional) Oracle Database Vault Account Manager user

- logfile: Optionally, specify a log file name and location. You can enter an absolute path or a path that is relative to the location of the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory

- nodecrypt: Reads plaintext passwords as passed on the command line. You must use this option if you are passing plaintext passwords to the command.

Note:

You are prompted to enter the SYS, Database Vault Owner, and Database Vault Account Manager passwords.

See Also:

Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide, 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Linux x86, Appendix C "Running DVCA After Creating a Database Vault Database" for more options available with the dvca -action option command

4. Run Oracle Database Vault Configuration Assistant (DVCA) by using the dvca -action enable option. This enables the Database Vault triggers. Use the following syntax:

dvca -action enable -service service_name -owner_account DV_owner_account_name [-logfile ./dvca.log] [-nodecrypt]

Enter SYS password: sys_password Enter owner password: owner_password

See Step 6 for details of the options used in the command.

5. Lock the DVSYS account. Use the following SQL statements:

SQL> CONNECT SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> ALTER USER DVSYS ACCOUNT LOCK;

6. Shut down the database.

To stop a single-instance database, use the following commands:

sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE


$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl stop database -d db_name

7. Relink the Oracle executable to turn on the Oracle Database Vault option. Use the following commands:

cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib make -f ins_rdbms.mk dv_on cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin relink oracle

Note:

For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) database, you must repeat the preceding commands on all nodes.

8. Start the database.


sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA"Enter password:SQL> startup


$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl start database -d db_name

9. If you wish to disable connections with SYSDBA privileges, then re-create the password file with the nosysdba=y and force=y flags. Use the following syntax:

orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwSID password=password force=y nosysdba=y

Here SID is the Oracle system identifier (SID) of the database, and password is the password for the SYS account.

9.6 Configuring Oracle Configuration Manager in a Cloned Oracle Home

If you have installed and configured Oracle Configuration Manager in the original Oracle home directory, then complete the following procedure:

1. In the cloned Oracle home, remove all the subdirectories of the $ORACLE_HOME/ccr/hosts directory to remove the previously configured hosts.

2. In the cloned Oracle home, run the following command:

$ configCCR -a

If you have installed Oracle Configuration Manager in the original Oracle home but have not configured it, then run the following command to configure it in the cloned Oracle home:

$ setupCCR

10 Downgrading Oracle Database VaultDowngrading Oracle Database Vault from 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.x requires the following steps:

1. Follow the steps in section "Disabling Oracle Database Vault"

11 Removing the Patch Set SoftwareThe catdwgrd.sql script enables the user to restore the Oracle Database installation of the database back to the original 10.2 release that the user backed up before applying the patch set. The catdwgrd.sql script is run in the 10.2.0.4 Oracle home to perform necessary downgrade actions. After the 10.2.0.x release is restored, the catrelod.sql script is run from 10.2.0.x Oracle home to reload the 10.2.0.x release packages and views.

See one of the following sections for information about how to remove the patch set software based on the Oracle Database installation type:

• Removing the Patch Set Software for Single Instance Installation

• Removing the Patch Set Software for Oracle RAC Installation

Note:

• Oracle Clusterware downgrade is not supported.

• You can run a higher version of Oracle Clusterware software with a lower version of Oracle Database.

11.1 Removing the Patch Set Software for Single Instance Installation

14.2 The Welcome Page of Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant Displays Incorrect Version

The Welcome page of Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant displays incorrect version of Oracle 9i. Oracle 9i Release 9.1.0 should read as Oracle 9i Release 9.0.1.


14.3 Running Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant on a Single Node Oracle RAC Installation

Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant fails during postinstallation upgrade on a single node and displays the following error message:

ORA-32001: write SPFILE requested but no SPFILE specified at startup

Workaround:

1. Start the database with the NOMOUNT option:

$ sqlplus /NOLOGSQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBAEnter password:SYS_password

https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=README&id=559255.1#BGBGEBCI

SQL> STARTUP NOMOUNT

2. Create SPFILE from PFILE by entering the following command where pfile_location is usually $ORACLE_BASE/admin/db_name/pfile for Optimal Flexible Architecture compliant database:

SQL> CREATE SPFILE=SHARED_LOCATION/SPFILE.ORA FROM PFILE=pfile_location/init.ora


SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATESQL> EXIT

4. Clear the contents of PFILE located at ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\dbs\initsid.ora and set the value of SPFILE as SHARED_LOCATION\SPFILE.ORA.

5. Run Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant:

$ $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbua

Note:

This workaround will resolve the issue faced during add node operation from single node. This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 5585075.


14.4 Refresh From OracleMetaLink Job Fails in Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control

If you attempt the Refresh from OracleMetaLink job in Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control, then it displays the following error:

Exception trying to access the repository. java.sql.SQLException:ORA-12899: value too large for column"SYSMAN"."MGMT_ARU_PRODUCTS"."PRODUCT_NAME" (actual: 54, maximum: 50)

Workaround:

None. Oracle will release a one-off patch to address this issue.


14.5 The sysman Related Errors Are Listed in the oraInstall.err File

When you use Oracle Universal Installer to remove Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4), some sysman related errors are listed in the oraInstall.err file.

Workaround:

These are benign errors and can be ignored.


14.6 Errors Displayed When Upgrading from Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4)

When upgrading Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) to Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6), the following errors are displayed:

ORA-06550: line 5, column 35:ORA-06550: line 5, column 1:ORA-00001: unique constraint(SYSMAN.PARAMETERS_PRIMARY_KEY) violatedORA-06512: at "SYSMAN.MGMT_TIME_SYNC", line 108Oracle_Server.log:ORA-06512: at "SYSMAN.MGMT_TIME_SYNC", line 166Oracle_Server.log:ORA-06512: at line 2

Workaround:

These errors do not result in any data loss. Therefore, you can ignore these errors.


14.7 Incorrect Database Version is Displayed on the Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control Page After Downgrading

If you downgrade the database from Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) to an earlier version, Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control may not restart after the downgrade. However, the emctl start dbconsole command may appear to have started the database console, but you cannot access the database console pages. The emctl status dbconsole command displays that the database console in fact has not started.

Workaround:

This issue is most likely a result Oracle bug 4505434, which has been fixed in this release but exists in earlier releases. To address this issue, apply the patch for bug 4505434 for the database console version you downgraded to and restart the database console.

This issues is tracked with Oracle bug 6649954.

14.8 Benign Entry in the Silent Log File After Cloning the Database

An entry similar to the following is logged in the silent log file immediately after you clone the database:

File not found: $ Cloned_Oracle_home/ccr/new_ccr/ccr/bin/setupCCR

Workaround:

This entry in the log file is not a error and can be ignored.This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 6721838.

14.9 Incorrect Nodes Displayed in Cloned Oracle Clusterware

On a cloned Oracle Clusterware, the new node does not display the correct node from which you

should run a command.

Workaround:

Run the following command to address this issue:

$ ./runInstaller -clone -silent ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_HOME_NAME \ =Oracle_home_name n_storageTypeVDSK=2 n_storageTypeOCR=2 \"sl_tableList={first_node:first_node_priv:first_node-vip, \second_node:second_node_priv:second_node-vip}" \s_ocrpartitionlocation=location_of_ocr s_votingdisklocation=location_of_voting_disk \"ret_PrivIntrList={private_interconect_list}" INVENTORY_LOCATION=central_inventory_location -noConfig

Note:

Change the clone command parameter sl_tableList to have the local node as the first entry.


14.10 Native Full Outer Join Implementation

To enable a new native full outer join implementation in the database, a user has to set the following underscore parameter:

_optimizer_native_full_outer_join =force

You can set this parameter for the system or for a specific session.

Besides dramatically improving the performance of a full outer join, the new implementation fixes a variety of issues, for examples a variety of ORA-942 (table or view doesn't exists) and ORA-4331 (unable to allocate string bytes of shared memory) errors.


14.11 Incorrect Oracle Workspace Manager Displayed After Upgrading to Oracle Database 11g

After upgrading Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) to Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6), the Oracle Workspace Manager version is displayed as 10.2.0.4.3.


14.12 ASM Error is Displayed When Creating 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1) Database on Oracle Clusterware (10.2.0.4)

If you are installing and creating an Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1) database, which uses ASM storage, after upgrading Oracle Clusterware to version 10.2.0.4, then the following error may be displayed:

An error occurred while executing ASM queries.

Workaround:

This error is benign. Click Continue to proceed with the installation. There is no loss of functionality due to this error.


14.13 SETUPCCR Fails if Preset JAVA_HOME Points to an Invalid JDK Home

When CCR is manually configured using setupCCR from a terminal on which JAVA_HOME is pre-defined and if it points to an invalid location or JRE_HOME instead of a valid JDK_HOME, the command fails.

Workaround:

Unset JAVA_HOME and re-invoke setupCCR.

14.14 In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Default Makefile Version does not Support Default DBNAME

The default Makefile version present in the RHEL5 machine is make 3.81. With this version, the default dbname is not recognized by those Oracle clients which are directly called from the Makefile.

Workaround:

You can use either of the following approaches:

• Use Makefile version 3.79

• Use @dbname whenever username/password is used in the Makefile

14.15 Enterprise Manager Throws 500 Internal Server Error When Scheduler Job Is Created

When creating scheduler jobs, clicking on the OK button while in the Options tab triggers an Internal Server Error.

Workaround: Switch to a different tab before clicking on the OK button. The job will be created properly in line with what has been entered in the Options tab.

This issue is tracked in bug 6863977.

14.16 NFS Client Causes Machine To Reboot During Database Stress Testing
