Through this blog, I would like to show, with a real customer case, how I have been migrating databases in High Availability environment on an ODA. High Availability using Data Guard for Oracle Enterprise Edition or dbvisit for Oracle Standard Edition 2. One of the advantage here would be to use the Standby Database as fallback in case there would be some application issue with new database version. Although, I would expect that for any…
Databases administration on a Bare Metal ODA will be done as root user by running odacli commands : odacli create-database to create a database odacli upgrade-database to upgrade a database between major releases odacli move-database to move databases from one Oracle home to another of the same database version odacli update-dbhome to update a specific RDBMS home to the latest patch bundle version etc… The odacli commands will do the needful and at the end…

First of all, I would like to mention the great introduction done by the staff team and the great organization.

I have been recently deploying dbvisit version 9.0.10 on Standard Edition SE2 18.7. Graceful switchover failed with error : ORA-00600: Interner Fehlercode, Argumente: [17090], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [],[], [] (DBD ERROR: OCIStmtExecute)
During one last ODA project, I was deploying dbvisit software version 9.0.10 on Oracle database SE Edition version 18.7. From time to time I was getting lost write of a data block with type KTU UNDO on the standby. Through this blog, I would like to share my investigation and experience on this subject.
During ODA deployment I could see that starting 18.7, immediately after reimaging or patching the ODA, I was getting some regular errors in the root mail box. The error message came every hour at 13 minutes and 43 minutes.
Recently I had to add some storage on an ODA X8-2M that I deployed early February. At that time the last available release was ODA 18.7. In this post I would like to share my experience and the challenge I could face.
I have recently faced an issue deleting database on an ODA. I was getting following error whatever database I wanted to delete : DCS-10001:Internal error encountered: null. Through this blog, I would like to share with you my experience on this case hoping it will help you if you are facing same problem. On this project I was using ODA Release 18.5 and 18.8 and faced the same problem on both versions. On 18.3 and…
During a past project, we were using ODA X8-2M with one additional network card. As per my knowledge, on an appliance, additional cards are used to extend connectivity to additional network. Customer was really enforcing to have network redundancy between the 2 cards. I then took opportunity for some tests. In this post, I would like to share my experience on these tests and how to properly configure network card extension on an ODA.
