Big Problem, too

Hi,

My application (Forms 6i with latest patch) run's very well on Oracle 9i
and Oracle 10g Release 1. But, When I migrated it to 10g Release 2, some
oracle forms blocks. =0D The situation is the following (it's a
sample):=0D
1- I run the product form for the first time. This form execute a query
to show all records (all products). I update a single field (name, for
example) of product id 1.=0D
2- I run the product form for the second time (the first one still
open). I change the name of another product (product id 2, for example).
3- When I save the first openned form, table product is blocked, waiting
for the second form conclusion. My application blocks and oracle process
in oracle database server increase cpu to 99%.

I appreciate your replay.

Best Regards,

António Sá

Amy,

:) I remember those days too.. Pre Oracle 8, RMAN was unstable and
flaky. Oracle 8 RMAN was finally a decent, usable, stable(ish) product.
Since Oracle 8, it has improved by orders of magnitude and become the de
facto standard for Oracle backups.

Starting from scratch now, RMAN would be the way to go. This is almost a
no-brainer.

If you are running something else and everyone who needs to know in your
organisation knows how it works and understands it, and it does the job
(100% success backup AND restore) then stick with it. Don't change
without a very good reason. If it aint broke don't fix it!!

Don't reject RMAN just because it was rubbish ten years ago. It's a very
good product now.

John.

I'm nervous about RMAN. I've been doing this for 16 years and remember
the days when oracle let us and our production db's find their bugs. We
just bought Legato and all of the plug-ins for Oracle, SQLServer and
DB2. Needless to say, I'm getting some pressure.

I work in an environment that patches ... A LOT. They patch the OS all
of the time.

How stable is RMAN? Do you patch a lot? Any other issues with RMAN?

Use RMAN for hot backups. I have a 1.7tb db, I can do a level 0 RMAN
in about 4 hours, it takes 7 to restore. (This is an oracle 11i erp
installation, with about 20 active modules, I'm using Tivoli as my
access to tape, and using about 6 tape drives - no disk pool). I
restore this completely at least once a month to a test or
development server using the duplicate database feature of
RMAN. There is Zero production downtime for this.

Learn RMAN, it is your friend.
