Changing the DBID and DBNAME of a Database

Changing the DBID and DBNAME of a Database

DBNEWID is a database utility that can change the internal database identifier (DBID) and the database name (DBNAME) for an operational database. I have used the utility to change the DBID and DBNAME separately here.

Change DBID.

Remember your sys password for proceeding with this activity.

Shut the DB and mount it.

invoke the utility.

nid TARGET=SYS

and pass the value Y to change the DBID

Once the utility completes its task of changing the DBID, open the database with RESETLOGS option as mentioned.

Now, here we will change the DBNAME using the utility.

invoke the utility:

nid TARGET=SYS DBNAME=myvs_uat SETNAME=YES

Now, the utility has done its task, we need to edit the pfile and change the DB_NAME, startup with the modified pfile, create spfile from the modified pfile, start the DB with the new spfile. If you don't modify the pfile, you will get the error as below:

Now, go ahead and change the pwd file, by recreating a new one.

Now, you can release the DB to the user.

RMAN restore status

Hello friends,

Below is the script for estimated time of Backup / Restore via RMAN:

col OPNAME for a28
select OPNAME,SOFAR/TOTALWORK*100 PCT, trunc(TIME_REMAINING/60) MIN_REMAINING,
trunc(ELAPSED_SECONDS/60) MIN_ELAPSED
from v$session_longops where TOTALWORK>0 and OPNAME like '%RMAN%' order by 2;

Output as below:

Few more scripts below:

select sid, start_time, totalwork sofar, (sofar/totalwork) * 100 pct_done from
v$session_longops where totalwork > sofar AND opname NOT LIKE '%aggregate%' AND opname like 'RMAN%';

Output as below:

set lines 300
set pages 50
col client_info for a23
col event for a28
col spid for a5
select sid, spid, client_info, event, p1, p2, p3 from
v$process p, v$session s where p.addr = s.paddr and client_info like 'rman channel=%';

Output as below:

Oracle® Linux - Pictorial Installation Guide for Release 6

Oracle® Linux - Pictorial Installation Guide for Release 6

Hello friends,

I just did a college project for one of my disciple, so presenting this post about pictorial guide for performing a default installation of Oracle Linux 6.

I installed this OS on a virtual machine.
Softwares used:

• Oracle Virtual box version 4.3.12, downloaded long time before from (https://www.virtualbox.org/), you can get the latest version now.
• OEL 6.0, downloaded from (https://edelivery.oracle.com), create a SSO with www.oracle.com

Guide here for:

• Basic Installation
• Firewall
• SELinux

For new VM creation, check the link below:

http://dineshnadar.blogspot.com/2015/11/create-new-oracle-vm-virtualbox.html

Now start the VM, it boots from the DVD iso we assigned as in storage.
Select Install or Upgrade an existing system, or it will boot automatically from the first option, if nothing is selected in 60 secs.

Skip media test, press enter.

Welcome screen, click next.

Select Language and click next.

Select the keyboard. click next

select the storage type, click next

click reinitialize all.

enter domain name and click Configure Network

Click on edit button, connect automatically and click apply, click close.

Click on next to select the time zone, after selecting the time zone, click next.

Enter root password and click next.

click on use all space, and tick mark review and modify partitioning layout, click next.

check the partitions, if any changes required, change and click next.

click format, click write changes to disk.

accept, click next.

select database server, customise now, click next.

select basic requirements, click next.

once installation is complete, click reboot

click forward, accept licence agreement, setup software update NO, forward, create user, forward,

date and time, forward, click finish.

disable firewall.

SELinux

Set SELinux to "permissive" by editing the "/etc/selinux/config" file, making sure the SELINUX flag is set as follows.

SELINUX=permissive

Once the change is complete, either restart the server or run the following command as "root".
setenforce Permissive
