This section describes the conventions used in the text and code examples of this
documentation set. It describes:
■ Conventions in Text
■ Conventions in Code Examples
■ Conventions for Microsoft Windows Operating Systems
Conventions in Text
We use various conventions in text to help you more quickly identify special terms.
The following table describes those conventions and provides examples of their use.
Note: This installation guide and other platform-specific
documentation are not available for purchase in printed format.

xi
Conventions in Code Examples
Code examples illustrate SQL, PL/SQL, SQL*Plus, or other command-line statements.
They are displayed in a monospace (fixed-width) font and separated from normal text
as shown in this example:
SELECT username FROM dba_users WHERE username = 'MIGRATE';
The following table describes typographic conventions used in code examples and
provides examples of their use.
Convention Meaning Example
Bold Bold typeface indicates terms that
are defined in the text or terms
that appear in a glossary, or both.
When you specify this clause, you
create an index-organized table.
Italics Italic typeface indicates book titles
or emphasis.
Oracle9i Database Concepts
Ensure that the recovery catalog
and target database do not reside
on the same disk.
UPPERCASE
monospace
(fixed-width
font)
Uppercase monospace typeface
indicates elements supplied by the
system. Such elements include
parameters, privileges, datatypes,
RMAN keywords, SQL keywords,
SQL*Plus or utility commands,
packages and methods, as well as
system-supplied column names,
database objects and structures,
usernames, and roles.
You can specify this clause only for
a NUMBER column.
You can back up the database by
using the BACKUP command.
Query the TABLE_NAME column in
the USER_TABLES data dictionary
view.
Use the DBMS_STATS.GENERATE_
STATS procedure.
lowercase
monospace
(fixed-width
font)
Lowercase monospace typeface
indicates executables, filenames,
directory names, and sample
user-supplied elements. Such
elements include computer and
database names, net service
names, and connect identifiers, as
well as user-supplied database
objects and structures, column
names, packages and classes,
usernames and roles, program
units, and parameter values.
Note: Some programmatic
elements use a mixture of
UPPERCASE and lowercase. Enter
these elements as shown.
Enter sqlplus to open SQL*Plus.
The password is specified in the
orapwd file.
Back up the datafiles and control
files in the /disk1/oracle/dbs
directory.
The department_id,
department_name, and
location_id columns are in the
hr.departments table.
Set the QUERY_REWRITE_
ENABLED initialization parameter
to true.
Connect as oe user.
The JRepUtil class implements
these methods.
lowercase
monospace
(fixed-width
font) italic
Lowercase monospace italic font
represents placeholders or
variables.
You can specify the parallel_
clause.
Run Uold_release.SQL where
old_release refers to the release
you installed prior to upgrading.

xii
Conventions for Microsoft Windows Operating Systems
The following table describes conventions for Microsoft Windows operating systems
and provides examples of their use.
[ ] Brackets enclose one or more
optional items. Do not enter the
brackets.
DECIMAL (digits[
,precision])
{ } Braces enclose two or more items,
one of which is required. Do not
enter the braces.
{ENABLE | DISABLE}
| A vertical bar represents a choice
of two or more options within
brackets or braces. Enter one of the
options. Do not enter the vertical
bar.
{ENABLE | DISABLE}
[COMPRESS | NOCOMPRESS]
... Horizontal ellipsis points indicate
either:
■ That we have omitted parts of
the code that are not directly
related to the example
■ That you can repeat a portion
of the code
CREATE TABLE ...
ASsubquery;
SELECTcol1,col2, ...
,colnFROM employees;
.
.
.
Vertical ellipsis points indicate
that we have omitted several lines
of code not directly related to the
example.
Other notation You must enter symbols other
than brackets, braces, vertical bars,
and ellipsis points as shown.
acctbal NUMBER(11,2);
acct CONSTANT NUMBER(4) :=
3;
Italics Italicized text indicates
placeholders or variables for
which you must supply particular
values.
CONNECT SYSTEM/system_
password
DB_NAME =database_name
UPPERCASE Uppercase typeface indicates
elements supplied by the system.
We show these terms in uppercase
in order to distinguish them from
terms you define. Unless terms
appear in brackets, enter them in
the order and with the spelling
shown. However, because these
terms are not case sensitive, you
can enter them in lowercase.
SELECT last_name,
employee_id FROM
employees;
SELECT * FROM USER_TABLES;
DROP TABLE hr.employees;
lowercase Lowercase typeface indicates
programmatic elements that you
supply. For example, lowercase
indicates names of tables,
columns, or files.
Note: Some programmatic
elements use a mixture of
UPPERCASE and lowercase. Enter
these elements as shown.
SELECT last_name,
employee_id FROM
employees;
sqlplus hr/hr
CREATE USER mjones
IDENTIFIED BY ty3MU9;

xiii
Bold Bold typeface indicates terms that
are defined in the text or terms
that appear in a glossary, or both.
When you specify this clause, you
create an index-organized table.
Choose Start > How to start a program. To start the Oracle Database
Configuration Assistant, choose
Start > Programs > Oracle -
HOME_NAME > Configuration
and Migration Tools > Database
Configuration Assistant.
File and directory
names
File and directory names are not
case sensitive. The following
special characters are not allowed:
left angle bracket (<), right angle
bracket (>), colon (:), double
quotation marks ("), slash (/), pipe
(|), and dash (-). The special
character backslash () is treated
as an element separator, even
when it appears in quotes. If the
file name begins with , then
Windows assumes it uses the
Universal Naming Convention.
c:winnt""system32 is the
same as C:WINNTSYSTEM32
C:> Represents the Windows
command prompt of the current
hard disk drive. The escape
character in a command prompt is
the caret (^). Your prompt reflects
the subdirectory in which you are
working. Referred to as the
command prompt in this manual.
C:oracleoradata>
The backslash ()
special character is
sometimes required
as an escape
character for the
double quotation
mark (") special
character at the
Windows command
prompt. Parentheses
and the single
quotation mark (') do
not require an escape
character. Refer to
your Windows
operating system
documentation for
more information on
escape and special
characters.
C:>exp scott/tiger
TABLES=emp QUERY="WHERE
job='SALESMAN' and
sal<1600"
C:>imp
SYSTEM/passwordFROMUSER=s
cott TABLES=(emp, dept)
HOME_NAME Represents the Oracle home name.
The home name can be up to 16
alphanumeric characters. The only
special character allowed in the
home name is the underscore.
C:> net start OracleHOME_
NAMETNSListener

Documentation Accessibility
Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation
accessible to all users, including users that are disabled. To that end, our
documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive
technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to
facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to
evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading
technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be
accessible to all of our customers. For more information, visit the Oracle Accessibility
Program Web site at http://www.oracle.com/accessibility/.
Accessibility of Code Examples in Documentation
Screen readers may not always correctly read the code examples in this document. The
conventions for writing code require that closing braces should appear on an
otherwise empty line; however, some screen readers may not always read a line of text
that consists solely of a bracket or brace.
ORACLE_HOME and
ORACLE_BASE
In releases prior to Oracle8i release
8.1.3, when you installed Oracle
components, all subdirectories
were located under a top level
ORACLE_HOME directory that by
default used one of the following
names:
■ C:orant for Windows NT
■ C:orawin95 for Windows
95
■ C:orawin98 for Windows
98
This release complies with
Optimal Flexible Architecture
(OFA) guidelines. All
subdirectories are not under a top
level ORACLE_HOME directory.
There is a top level directory
called ORACLE_BASE that by
default is C:oracle. If you
install Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) on
a computer with no other Oracle
software installed, then the default
setting for the first Oracle home
directory is C:oracleora90.
The Oracle home directory is
located directly under ORACLE_
BASE.
All directory path examples in this
guide follow OFA conventions.
Refer to Oracle9i Database Getting
Starting for Windows for additional
information about OFA
compliances and for information
about installing Oracle products in
non-OFA compliant directories.
Go to the ORACLE_
BASEORACLE_
HOMErdbmsadmin directory.

This section describes new features of Oracle9i for Windows release 1 (9.0.1) and
provides pointers to additional information.
The following sections describe the new features in Oracle9i:
■ Oracle9i Release 1 (9.0.1) New Features in Oracle9i for Windows
Oracle9i Release 1 (9.0.1) New Features in Oracle9i for Windows
■ Integration With Windows NT and Windows 2000
■ Oracle9i supports several versions of Microsoft Windows, including Windows
2000 and Windows NT.
■ Oracle9i supports enhanced integration with Microsoft Transaction Services
and Internet Information Services. The public key infrastructure (PKI) and
Single Sign-On capabilities in Oracle9i have also been well integrated with
Windows 2000, Active Directory, and Microsoft Certificate Store.
■ Oracle9i also provides an enhanced solution to allow the Oracle database to
participate as a Resource Manager in Microsoft Transaction Server and COM+
Transactions environment, providing enhanced performance and scalability.
■ Windows security supports Oracle Wallets in the registry and Active Directory
and allows Oracle products to use Microsoft Certificate Store.
■ Customers who implement Oracle Internet Directory as their central Directory
while using Active Directory to support their desktop environments can use
Microsoft Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI) to access Oracle Internet
Directory from the Windows desktop environment.
■ Meta-directory synchronization between Active Directory and Oracle Internet
Directory facilitates centralized scheduling and configuration of Oracle and
third party meta-directory components. Synchronization between Active
Directory and Oracle Internet Directory can be achieved by deploying Oracle

Directory Integration Platform and an Active Directory Synchronization agent
from Siemens.
■ Oracle Fail Safe, shipping in a subsequent CD pack, provides high availability
for Oracle databases and applications deployed on all Microsoft Cluster Server
clusters configured with Windows NT and Windows 2000.
■ For Windows developers, Oracle9i offers an enhanced native OLE DB
provider. XML, database events, and Oracle9i extensions are supported
through Oracle Objects for OLE. The COM Automation Feature now supports
Java stored procedures.
■ iSQL*Plus
iSQL*Plus is a browser-based implementation of SQL*Plus. You can use iSQL*Plus
over the Internet to connect to an Oracle database and perform the same actions as
you would through the SQL*Plus command line. The iSQL*Plus implementation
uses a Web browser, an Oracle HTTP Server with the iSQL*Plus Server, and an
Oracle Database Server.
■ Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS)
The following table describes some of the new features in Microsoft Transaction
Server for Oracle9i.
■ Oracle COM Automation
Oracle COM Automation Feature is now available for Java as well as PL/SQL.
While the general functionality is parallel, the developer's guide indicates those
areas where functionality, setup, and architecture differ.
For this release, Oracle has renamed the com81.dll to orawpcom.dll. Users
migrating from Oracle8i must rerun comwrap.sql to continue using Oracle COM
Automation feature for PL/SQL.
■ Oracle DBA Studio Integration into the Enterprise Manager Console
Oracle DBA Studio is no longer available as a separate application. The
functionality of this component has been integrated with Oracle Enterprise
Manager Console.
New Features Description
High availability The Oracle database is no longer dependent on the Oracle Service for
MTS. Previously, if the Oracle Service for MTS was stopped, the Oracle
database was unable to participate in Microsoft Transaction Server
transactions.
Improved scalability The code that allows an Oracle database to participate in Microsoft
Transaction Server transactions is now embedded in each Microsoft
Transaction Server application process.
Easier configuration Previous versions required a Windows NT service named Oracle
Service for MTS to be created for each Oracle database, enabling the
database to participate in Microsoft Transaction Server transactions.
Moreover, only one Oracle Service for MTS was supported for each
Oracle database. This release no longer requires this service.
See Also: Oracle Developer's Guide for Microsoft Transaction Server
See Also: Oracle COM Automation Feature Developer's Guide

xxi
■ Oracle Objects for OLE
Oracle Objects for OLE supports the creation of temporary binary large objects
(BLOBs) or character large objects (CLOBs) that can be manipulated and then
bound into SQL statements or PL/SQL blocks, or copied into permanent LOBs.
Oracle Objects for OLE supports database events. This asynchronous notification
is modeled along the same lines as the failover handler, thus a client can subscribe
to one or more database events and can continue with other processing. Each
database event that the client is interested in is stored as a subscription by Oracle
Objects for OLE.
■ Oracle OLAP Services
Oracle OLAP Services provides a Java OLAP API and an analytical engine. Using
OLAP Services, developers can build analytical applications that support complex
statistical, mathematical, and financial calculations along with predictive
analytical functions such as forecasting, modeling, consolidations, allocations, and
scenario management. Because the OLAP API is all Java, OLAP Services supports
deployment of analytical applications to large, geographically distributed user
communities on the Internet. Oracle OLAP Services is installed with Oracle9i
Enterprise Edition.
■ Oracle Real Application Clusters
Oracle Real Application Clusters is a new, breakthrough software architecture with
scalability and high availability features that exceed the capabilities of previous
Oracle cluster-enabled software releases.
The following table describes some of the features in Oracle Real Application
Clusters for Oracle9i.

Cache Fusion A breakthrough technology that guarantees cache coherency among
multiple cluster nodes without incurring disk I/O costs.
Cluster
Configuration
The Oracle9i release of Oracle Real Application Clusters on Windows
provides for easier cluster configuration:
■ Oracle Operating System Dependent clusterware (Oracle OSDs)
are provided in this release. The OSDs serve as communication
links between the operating system and Oracle Real Application
Clusters software.
■ The Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard creates a cluster or adds a node
to an existing cluster.
Centralized Node
Information
Easier configuration through centralized node information:
■ Use Oracle Enterprise Manager or the srvctl utility to manage
instances, including adding or removing them. There is no need to
update distributed files on the nodes.
■ Add an instance dynamically using Oracle Database Configuration
Assistant.

xxii
■ Oracle Ultra Search
Oracle Ultra Search, a new feature of Oracle9i, provides an "Out-of-the-Box"
solution that can find your information wherever it lives. Ultra Search provides
the following features:
■ Searches content regardless of location--in Oracle and non-Oracle databases,
on Web servers, in files on disk, or on corporate mail servers.
■ Uses a "crawler" to crawl, index, and make searchable your corporate Intranet;
the documents stay in their own repositories and the crawled information
builds an index that stays within your firewall in a designated Oracle9i
database.
■ Provides a Web-style search with intuitive search menus and self-service
access. There is no need to code against hard-to-use low level APIs. For
advanced users, however, APIs are also exposed.
■ Organizes and categorizes your content by extracting valuable metadata that
can be used in portal applications.
■ Oracle Workflow
Oracle Workflow now provides the Business Event System, a new application
service that leverages the Oracle Advanced Queuing infrastructure to
communicate business events among systems within an enterprise and between
enterprises. The Business Event System includes the Event Manager, for
registering subscriptions to significant events, and event activities, for modeling
business events within workflow processes. This support allows Oracle Workflow
users to deal with business objects, and E-business integration flows powerfully
and flexibly, with minimal intrusion into core applications.
■ Oracle9i on Windows 2000
There are some differences between using Oracle9i on Windows 2000 and
Windows NT 4.0.
■ Workspace Manager
Workspace Manager provides a long-transaction framework built on a workspace
management system. It uses a series of short transactions and multiple data
versions to implement a complete long-transaction event that maintains atomicity

Introducing Oracle9i for Windows NT 1-1
1Introducing Oracle9i for Windows NT
This chapter introduces you to Oracle9i for Windows NT and helps you plan your
installation.
This chapter contains these topics:
■ Section 1.1, "Oracle9i for Windows NT Overview"
■ Section 1.2, "Planning Your Installation"
■ Section 1.3, "Documentation Library Overview"
■ Section 1.4, "What Documentation Do I Read First?"
■ Section 1.5, "Getting Started with Installation"
1.1 Oracle9i for Windows NT Overview
Oracle9i for Windows NT is a development and deployment platform for the Internet.
Oracle9i for Windows NT features include the following:
■ A built-in Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that lets you store and run Java code within
an Oracle9i database
■ Support for the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), the
Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP), and Enterprise JavaBeans

Planning Your Installation
1-2 Oracle9i Database Installation Guide
■ Section 1.2.1, "Using Optimal Flexible Architecture"
■ Section 1.2.2, "Oracle Universal Installer Overview"
■ Section 1.2.3, "Oracle9i Products for Installation"
■ Section 1.2.4, "Licensing Information"
■ Section 1.2.5, "Oracle9i Database Options"
1.2.1 Using Optimal Flexible Architecture
Oracle Corporation recommends using the Optimal Flexible Architecture (OFA)
standard when installing and configuring Oracle9i databases. The OFA standard is a
set of configuration guidelines for creating fast, highly available, reliable Oracle
databases that require little maintenance. The following advantages are the most
important:
■ Structured organization of directories and files and the consistent naming used for
database files simplify database administration.
■ Distribution of I/O across multiple disks prevents performance bottlenecks caused
by multiple read or write commands issued simultaneously to a single drive.
■ Distribution of applications across multiple disks safeguards against database
failures.
■ Login home directories are not at risk when database administrators add, move, or
delete Oracle home directories.
■ Multiple versions of application software can execute concurrently.
■ Software upgrades can be tested in an Oracle home in a separate directory from
the Oracle home where your production database is located.
1.2.1.1 Benefits of Using Multiple Oracle Homes
The main benefit of using multiple Oracle homes is that you can run multiple releases
of the same products concurrently. For example, you can test an Oracle9i release 1
(9.0.1) database patch before you run your production database Oracle9i release 1
(9.0.1) against it.
1.2.1.2 Multiple Oracle Home Functionality in Different Releases
Modifications to multiple Oracle home functionality have occurred since it was
introduced in Oracle8 release 8.0.4. This section helps you determine the capabilities of
your Oracle home depending on the release you are using.
1.2.1.3 Oracle8 Releases Before 8.0.4
Releases of Oracle for Windows NT and Windows 95 prior to Oracle8 release 8.0.4
support only single Oracle homes, allowing you to install and run Oracle products in a
single Oracle home. Different releases of Oracle products can be installed in the same
Oracle home provided they have different first or second-digit release numbers. For
example, you can install Oracle7 release 7.2 products and Oracle7 release 7.3 products
or Oracle7 release 7.x and Oracle8 release 8.x products in the same Oracle home.
However, you cannot install multiple third-digit releases of the same products. For
Note: The Oracle Universal Installer supports OFA, but does not
require OFA.

example, you cannot install Oracle7 release 7.3.2 and Oracle7 release 7.3.3 products on
the same computer; one installation overwrites the other.
1.2.1.4 Oracle8 Releases 8.0.4 to 8.0.6
You can install one or more releases of Oracle products in multiple Oracle homes. For
example, with multiple Oracle homes, you can install Oracle8 release 8.0.x and
Oracle8i release 8.1.3 products or Oracle7 release 7.x and Oracle8 release 8.0.x products
in different Oracle homes on the same computer.
You can also install different releases of Oracle products in the same Oracle home
provided they have different first or second-digit release numbers. For example, you
can install Oracle7 release 7.2 products and Oracle8 release 8.0.x products in the same
Oracle home.
1.2.1.5 Oracle8i Release 8.1.3 to Oracle9i Release 1 (9.0.1)
These releases have the same multiple Oracle home functionality as Oracle8 releases
8.0.4 to 8.0.6, but the following restrictions apply:
■ You cannot install any release from Oracle8i release 8.1.3 to Oracle9i release 1
(9.0.1) into an Oracle home that was created using the old installer. (The old
installer was called Oracle Installer and was used for installations before Oracle8i
release 8.1.3; the new Java-based installer is called Oracle Universal Installer.)
■ You cannot install releases prior to Oracle8i release 8.1.3 into an Oracle home that
was created by any release from Oracle8i release 8.1.3 to Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1).
■ Releases from Oracle8i release 8.1.3 to Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) must be installed in
separate Oracle homes. You cannot have more than one release installed in each
Oracle home.
1.2.2 Oracle Universal Installer Overview
Oracle Universal Installer is a Java-based graphical user interface (GUI) tool that
enables you to install Oracle components from your CD-ROM. Oracle Universal
Installer provides the following capabilities:
■ Component and suite installations
■ Web-based installations
■ National language and globalization support
■ Distributed installation support
■ Unattended "silent" installations using response files
■ Deinstallation of installed components
■ Multiple Oracle homes support
See Also: "Multiple Oracle Homes and Optimal Flexible
Architecture" of Oracle9i Database Getting Starting for Windows
See Also: Appendix D, "Advanced Installation Topics" for more
information about Web-based and silent installations

1.2.2.1 Oracle Universal Installer Restrictions
■ Using the old Oracle Installer installer shipped with releases 7.x and 8.0.x) to
install components into an Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) Oracle home directory is not
supported. Likewise, you cannot install release 1 (9.0.1) components into a release
7.x, 8.0.x, 8.1.3, or 8.1.4 Oracle home.
■ Oracle Universal Installer automatically installs Oracle's version of the Java
Runtime Environment (JRE) i call. This version is required to run Oracle Universal
Installer and several Oracle assistants. Do not modify the JRE, unless doing so with
a patch provided by OracleMetaLink. Visit:
https://metalink.oracle.com/support/
■ Oracle Universal Installer is capable of running a noninteractive installation of
Oracle products and can optionally be configured for "silent" mode. Silent mode is
a background process and does not display windows.
■ Oracle Universal Installer is capable of Web-based installations. Refer to Oracle
Universal Installer Concepts Guide for more information about this Installer feature.
■ Installation of Oracle9i database components from a remote Terminal Services
Client onto a Windows 2000 server that is running a Terminal Server Service or a
Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server is not supported. If you attempt to install
Oracle9i in this manner, many database configuration tools, such as Oracle Data
Migration Assistant, Oracle Database Configuration Assistant, Oracle Internet
Directory Configuration Assistant, Oracle Net Configuration Assistant, and Oracle
Workflow Configuration Assistant, hang. Start all the configuration tools from the
Terminal Server console and not from the Terminal Services Client.
1.2.2.2 Using the Keyboard to Navigate Oracle Universal Installer
This guide describes how to navigate Oracle Universal Installer windows with a
mouse. You can also navigate with keyboard commands. Windows operating systems
include a series of keyboard commands that can be used with Oracle Universal
Installer. For example, the tab key enables you to navigate from item to item in a
window. Oracle Universal Installer includes several windows that require navigation
through components in a hierarchical tree. These windows include:
■ Available Product Components window (lists the components available for
installation)
■ Summary window (lists the components about to be installed)
■ Inventory window (lists the installed components)
Table 1–1 describes how to navigate these windows with keyboard commands:

■ Section 2.2, "Top-Level Component System Requirements"
■ Section 2.3, "Mandatory Individual Component Requirements"
■ Section 2.4, "Oracle Enterprise Manager Requirements"
■ Section 2.6, "Networking Protocol Vendor Requirements"
2.1 Single Oracle Home Components
Most Oracle components can be installed multiple times on the same computer.
However, the following components can only be installed once for each computer:
■ Oracle Performance Monitor for Windows NT
■ Oracle Objects for OLE
■ Oracle Provider for OLE DB
If you attempt to install these components a second time, Oracle Universal Installer
detects that these products are already installed in another Oracle home and
automatically removes them from the installation process without prompting you. The
following information is logged to the installActions.log file in the
c:ProgramFilesOracleInventorylogs directory.
#product_name is a single oracle home product. It is already
installed in currently_installed_location.
If you are performing an installation and notice that one or more single Oracle home
components are not available for installation during the current session, check to see if
any of these components or any previous versions of these components are installed in
another Oracle home. If you want to install these in the currently selected Oracle
home, then first deinstall the conflicting versions.
Note: All Oracle7 components and all Oracle8 release 8.0.3
components are non-multiple Oracle home products.
See Also: Section 1.2.1, "Using Optimal Flexible Architecture"

Top-Level Component System Requirements
2.2 Top-Level Component System Requirements
The following sections list the system requirements for each top-level component.
Each top-level component contains several installation types, each of which contain a
series of individual components. Some individual components also have requirements
that must be satisfied before installation. Those requirements are described in
Section 2.3 and Section 2.4.
■ Section 2.2.1, "System Requirements for FAT and NTFS File Systems"
■ Section 2.2.2, "Oracle9i Database System Requirements"

■ Section 2.2.4, "Oracle9i Management and Integration System Requirements"
■ Section 2.2.5, "Unsupported Components and Features on Windows Terminal
Servers"
■ Section 2.2.6, "Component Certification"
2.2.1 System Requirements for FAT and NTFS File Systems
This chapter lists system requirements for both the File Allocation Table (FAT) and NT
File System (NTFS) file systems. Because of the difference in space allocation on both
file systems, the hard disk requirements vary.
Oracle Corporation recommends installing on NTFS for Windows NT and Windows
2000, or FAT32 for Windows 98.
Installation" for the installation types under which these components
are installed
Note: The hard disk requirements for each Oracle9i top-level
component include 25 MB required to install Java Runtime
Environment (JRE) and Oracle Universal Installer on the partition
where the operating system is installed. If sufficient space is not
detected, installation fails and an error message appears.
See Also: Section 6.1, "About NTFS File System and Windows NT
Registry Permissions"
Note: You must review the FAT and NTFS system requirements
listed in this section to determine if you have enough hard disk space
for installation. These values are more accurate than the hard disk
values reported by the Oracle Universal Installer Installation Types
window and Summary window. These windows do not include:
■ Accurate FAT disk space values
■ The space required to create a database
■ The size of compressed files that are expanded on the hard drive

■ Migrating
If you are migrating Oracle8i Database
release 8.1.7 and Oracle Internet Directory
release 2.1.1 to Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1)
and 3.0.1, respectively, ensure that you:
■ Stop the Oracle listener service,
Oracle database service, and Oracle
Internet Directory service.
■ Know the system identifier (SID),
Oracle directory server (ODS) user
password, and Oracle Internet
Directory administrator password of
the Oracle8i Database to migrate.
■ Perform a complete backup prior to
migration.
There is no network downtime during
Oracle Internet Directory migration in a
multinode replication environment. The
other nodes are available while the
migration of one node is in progress. In a
replicated environment, Oracle Internet
Directory release 3.0.1 running on one
node can coexist with other nodes
running Oracle Internet Directory releases
2.1.1 and 2.0.6. Review all guidelines for
migrating a multinode replication
network before migrating.
Note: LDAP Data Interchange Format
(LDIF)-based manual migration is
available as an alternative to
automatically migrating Oracle Internet
Directory through Oracle Universal
Installer.
■ Oracle Internet
Directory
■ Currently
installed Oracle9i
Database
If you have Oracle9i Database release 1
(9.0.1) installed on a computer and you
now want to install Oracle Internet
Directory release 3.0.1 in the same Oracle
home, ensure that both the database and
listener are running.
■ Chapter 4, "Installing
Oracle Components"
■ No Oracle9i

Oracle Enterprise Manager Requirements
2.4 Oracle Enterprise Manager Requirements
Review the following requirements before beginning installation of Oracle Enterprise
Manager components:
■ Oracle Management Server Requirements
■ Oracle Enterprise Manager Web Site Requirements
■ Oracle Enterprise Manager Paging Server Requirements
2.4.1 Oracle Management Server Requirements
Oracle Management Server, the middle tier of the Oracle Enterprise Manager
framework, is responsible for:
■ Authenticating Oracle Enterprise Manager administrators
■ Processing management functions
■ Providing a centralized data store of administrative information
Prior to installing Oracle Management Server, determine whether you will use an
existing Oracle Enterprise Manager repository or create a new Oracle Enterprise
Manager repository.
2.4.1.1 Use an Existing Repository
If the existing repository is release 1 (9.0.1), then no further preinstallation steps are
required.
If the existing repository is release 2.x, then upgrade the older repository to the current
release by running Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant after
installation.
2.4.1.2 Create a New Repository
If you decide to create a new release 1 (9.0.1) repository, then you must install and start
a database (or select an existing, running database to which you have access) in which
to create a new repository. Optionally, if the database software is detected in the Oracle
home where Oracle Management Server is installed, then when the Oracle Enterprise
Manager Configuration Assistant starts, you can choose to have the assistant create a
new database instance and automatically create the repository in that new instance.
The following database versions have been certified for the release 1 (9.0.1) repository:
9.0.1, 8.1.7, 8.1.6, and 8.0.6.
Installation" for the installation types under which Oracle Enterprise
Manager components are installed
Note: All Oracle Enterprise Manager products must be of the same
release. Do not upgrade Oracle Management Server and the
repository until all Oracle Enterprise Manager users have upgraded
their software to Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1). Older versions of Enterprise
Manager are not supported with the new release.

Oracle Enterprise Manager Requirements
2.4.2 Oracle Enterprise Manager Web Site Requirements
If you want to run the Oracle Enterprise Manager Console and supported
management applications from within a Web browser, then you must install Oracle
Enterprise Manager Web Site. By default, Oracle Enterprise Manager Web Site bundles
a preconfigured Oracle HTTP Server to act as its Web listener. However, Web-enabled
Oracle Enterprise Manager also supports the following additional Web servers
(although any Web server using a standard common gateway interface [CGI] can
support Oracle Enterprise Manager release 1 [9.0.1]):
■ Oracle Internet Application Server release 1.0 or higher for Windows NT and
Windows 2000
■ Microsoft Internet Information Server release 4.0 or higher for Windows NT and
Windows 2000
■ Apache release 1.3.9 or higher for Windows NT and Windows 2000
2.4.3 Oracle Enterprise Manager Paging Server Requirements
To send Oracle Enterprise Manager administrators page notifications of event and job
status changes, optionally install the Oracle Enterprise Manager Paging Server on a
Windows NT or Windows 2000 computer that contains a modem configured to dial an
outside line.
Note: Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant is
automatically started during the configuration phase in the Oracle9i
Database Custom installation type, the Oracle Management Server
installation type, and the Oracle9i Management and Integration
Custom installation type. However, if you want to configure the
Oracle Management Server, then this assistant must be manually
started after all other installation types. After an installation, Oracle
Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant is available from Start >
Oracle - HOME_NAME > Configuration and Migration Tools >
Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant.
See Also: "General Repository Guidelines" of Oracle Enterprise
Manager Configuration Guide for details on repository creation, initial
size of a release 1 (9.0.1) repository, and guidelines on how much it
can grow
Note: There are no system requirements specific to Oracle Enterprise
Manager Web Site (other than requiring 820 MB of available hard disk
space); only system requirements for the chosen Web server. See the
appropriate Web server documentation for system requirements.
See Also: Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Guide for more
information about Oracle Enterprise Manager Web Site

Migration and Upgrade Requirements
2.5 Migration and Upgrade Requirements
Oracle Corporation recommends installing Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) into a new Oracle
home directory. If you must install Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) into an Oracle home
directory that contains previously installed Oracle8i components, then use Oracle
Universal Installer to remove these components before beginning a new installation.
Refer to Oracle9i Database Migration before deciding to migrate or upgrade an existing
database. Migration and upgrade procedures on Windows NT are covered in Oracle9i
Database Migration. However, this section describes several Windows NT-specific
issues to understand before following the instructions in Oracle9i Database Migration.
The following sections describe specific migration requirements:
■ Section 2.5.1, "Policies for Linking and Relinking Applications"
■ Section 2.5.2, "Migrating and Upgrading Releases 7.x and 8.x"
■ Section 2.5.3, "Oracle Real Application Clusters Migration and Upgrade
Requirements"
2.5.1 Policies for Linking and Relinking Applications
Oracle Corporation recommends that you upgrade your client software to match the
current server software. For example, if you upgrade your Oracle server to release 1
(9.0.1), then Oracle corporation recommends upgrading the client software to release 1
(9.0.1) as well. Keeping the server and client software at the same release number
ensures the maximum stability for your applications. In addition, the latest Oracle
client software may provide added functionality and performance enhancements that
were not available with previous releases.
2.5.2 Migrating and Upgrading Releases 7.x and 8.x
Before using the Migration utility or Oracle Data Migration Assistant to migrate to the
latest release, an Oracle7 database must be at least release 7.3.4 and an Oracle8
database must be at least release 8.0.6. See the documentation that accompanied your
previous database release for information on how to migrate to release 7.3.4 or 8.0.6.
2.5.2.1 Oracle Command Line Tools with the Migration Utility
If you use the Migration utility to migrate or upgrade your Oracle database, the
instructions in Oracle9i Database Migration prompt you to enter information at the
command prompt of an Oracle tool. The command tool to use (SQL*DBA, Server
Manager, or SQL*Plus) depends upon the database release from which you are
migrating or upgrading.
Note: This guide does not describe Oracle9i Personal Edition
installation and migration procedures on Windows 98. See the
documentation included with your Oracle9i Personal Edition for
Windows 98 software documentation for installation and migration
instructions.
See Also: Oracle9i Database Migration for rules regarding linking and
relinking applications when you perform a feature release upgrade of
the client software

Migration and Upgrade Requirements
Table 2–5 describes the tools to use and the method for starting these tools:
If you use the Migration utility to migrate or upgrade your Oracle database, the
instructions in Oracle9i Database Migration also prompt you to use the ORADIM utility
at the MS-DOS command prompt. The ORADIM utility creates, starts, stops, and
modifies database instances on Windows NT. Table 2–6 describes the method for
starting the ORADIM utility depending upon the database release from which you are
migrating or upgrading:
2.5.2.2 Required Oracle7 Server SQL*Net Patch Releases
When migrating from Oracle7 Server release 7.3.4 to the latest release, install the
appropriate patch of SQL*Net in the 7.3.4 Oracle home before migrating with either
Oracle Data Migration Assistant or the Migration utility. Migration fails if you do not
install the appropriate patch of SQL*Net. This table describes the required SQL*Net
patch releases.
When migrating from release 7.3.4, use the terminal patchset 7.3.4.5.
Obtain this patch and installation instructions from OracleMetaLink:
https://metalink.oracle.com/support/
2.5.3 Oracle Real Application Clusters Migration and Upgrade Requirements
Before following the migration procedures listed in the Oracle9i Database Migration,
stop any operating system dependent clusterware layer services.

3Selecting Database Creation and Oracle Net
Services Configuration Methods
This chapter describes the Oracle9i database creation and Oracle Net Services
client/server configuration methods available during installation. At a minimum, you
must understand the creation and networking methods before performing an
installation.
■ Section 3.1, "About Database Creation and Network Configuration Methods"
■ Section 3.2, "Types of Database Environments"
■ Section 3.3, "Selecting a Database Creation Method"
■ Section 3.4, "Configuring Your Network"
3.1 About Database Creation and Network Configuration Methods
Oracle Universal Installer provides several methods for creating an Oracle9i database
and configuring your Oracle Net client/server networking environment during
installation.
The method to select during installation depends upon:
■ Your own expertise with database creation and network configuration
■ The requirements of your database and network environment
You must understand these methods before you begin installation. By reviewing the
information in this chapter, you can ensure that you create and configure a database
and network environment that best matches your needs from the beginning.
Oracle9i Database and Oracle Net components are installed through several
installation types. Review the installation types in Table 3–1 to identify how much user
input is required for database creation and network configuration during installation.
See the remaining sections of this chapter for specific details on what information is
automatically created, and what information you must provide.

Types of Database Environments
3.2 Types of Database Environments
Oracle Universal Installer enables you to create an Oracle9i Database that operates in
one of the environments shown in Table 3–2. Identify the environment appropriate for
your Oracle9i Database:
Note:
■ If you select the Oracle Internet Directory installation type
described in Table 3–1, then an Oracle9i Database will be
automatically installed if one is not currently installed in the same
Oracle home. Use this database for storing only Oracle Internet
Directory information.
■ If you select the Oracle Integration Server installation type and no
Oracle9i Database is currently installed in the current Oracle
home, then the same database that you receive with the Enterprise
Edition installation type is automatically installed.
Table 3–2 Database Configuration Types
Environment Description
General Purpose Users perform a variety of database tasks, ranging from simple
transactions to complex queries. Select this database
environment for general purpose usage.
Transaction Processing Users perform large numbers of concurrent transactions, where
each transaction is a relatively simple operation processing a
small amount of data. Transactions consist of reading, writing,
and deleting data in database tables.
Billing databases, such as those commonly found on internet
commerce sites, are the most common example of this database
configuration. These are also known as online transaction
processing (OLTP) databases.
Data Warehouse Users perform numerous complex queries that process large
volumes of data. Response time, accuracy, and availability are
key issues.
These queries (typically read-only) range from a simple fetch of
a few records to complex queries that sort thousands of records
from many different tables. Data warehousing environments are
also known as Decision Support System (DSS) environments.
Customized Allows you to create a customized database configuration or a
custom installation of Oracle components that meets specialized
requirements.
Select this configuration method only if you are prepared to
provide detailed component and database environment
information. Choosing this option requires a longer installation
session than choosing a preconfigured database.
Software Only Allows you to install Oracle components without creating a
database.
Select this method only if you are prepared to provide extensive
database configuration information when you create a database.
Oracle Corporation recommends that you install at least one
seed database to serve as a template for database configuration.

Selecting a Database Creation Method
3.3 Selecting a Database Creation Method
Oracle Database Configuration Assistant is a tool that enables you to create an
Oracle9i Database for Transaction Processing, Data Warehouse, or General Purpose
environments. Oracle Database Configuration Assistant is automatically started by

Deinstalling Oracle Components and Services
4.4.4 Reviewing the Installation Session Log
The first time the Installer runs it creates the SYSTEM_DRIVE:Program
FilesOracleInventorylogs directory. An inventory of installed components
and installation actions performed are kept in this directory.
installActions.log is the most recent log file. Log file names of previous
installation sessions are also in this directory and take the form
installActionsdate_time.log (for example, installActions2001-07-14_
09-00-56-am.log).
You can also view a list of installed components by choosing Installed Products on any
window of Oracle Universal Installer. A window of installed programs appears.
4.5 Deinstalling Oracle Components and Services
This section describes how to deinstall Oracle components, utilities, and services.
■ Section 4.5.1, "Stopping Oracle Services for Windows"
■ Section 4.5.2, "Deinstalling Components with Oracle Universal Installer"
■ Section 4.5.3, "Removing Oracle Keys From the Registry on Windows NT and
Windows 2000"
■ Section 4.5.4, "Removing Oracle Keys from the Registry on Windows 98"
Note: Do not delete or manually alter the Inventory directory or
its contents. Doing so can prevent the Installer from locating
products that you install on your system.
Notes:
■ Silent deinstallations are not supported at this time.
■ Deinstalling Oracle9i JVM causes Oracle Universal Installer to
remove the database and other products dependent on Oracle9i
JVM from your system.

4.5.1 Stopping Oracle Services for Windows
You must first stop the Oracle Windows NT services before deinstalling Oracle
components or removing any registry entries.
To stop Windows NT services:
1. Choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > Services.
2. If any Oracle services (names begin with Oracle or Ora) exist and have the status
Started, select the service, and choose Stop.
3. Choose Close to exit the Services window.
4. Exit the Control Panel.
4.5.1.1 Stopping and Removing Oracle Internet Directory Services
1. Stop the Oracle Internet Directory Server at the MS-DOS command prompt:
C:> oidctl CONNECT=NET_SERVICE_NAME SERVER=OIDLDAPD
INSTANCE=SERVER INSTANCE_NUMBER STOP
where NET_SERVICE_NAME is the network connection to the Oracle Internet
Directory Server and SERVER_INSTANCE_NUMBER is the instance number (this
number appears in the Server List tab of Oracle Directory Manager).
2. Stop the Oracle Internet Directory Monitor at the MS-DOS command prompt:
C:> oidmon STOP
3. Remove the Oracle Internet Directory service OracleDirectoryService from
the registry:
C:> oidmon REMOVE
4. Follow the procedures in Section 4.5.2 to remove the Oracle9i Database configured
with Oracle Internet Directory.
4.5.1.2 Stopping and Removing Oracle Management Server Service Registry Entry
1. Stop the Oracle Management Server (OracleHOME_NAMEManagementServer)
from the Control Panel:
On Windows NT, choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > Services. On
Windows 2000, choose Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.
Note: Manual removal of components is permitted only if you exit
Oracle Universal Installer during an installation. For example:
■ Choosing Cancel
■ Turning off the computer
■ If the installation does not complete (that is, all required
configuration tools do not run at the end)
■ In these cases, Oracle Universal Installer does not register the
installation in its inventory. However, files may have been
copied to your Oracle home. Remove these files manually and
restart the installation.

2. Remove the Oracle Management Server service OracleHOME_
NAMEManagementServer from the registry:
C:> omsntsrv -u Home_Name
where Home_Name is the Oracle home name.
4.5.2 Deinstalling Components with Oracle Universal Installer
This section describes how to use Oracle Universal Installer to deinstall Oracle
components (which deinstalls them from the installer inventory) instead of removing
them manually.
Do not delete an Oracle home manually (for example, by deleting the directory
structure with Windows NT Explorer or MS-DOS command prompt) because the
components in that Oracle home remain registered in the Oracle Universal Installer
inventory. If you then attempt an installation in the same Oracle home, some or all of
the components selected may not be installed because the installer determines they are
already installed.
Oracle Universal Installer creates Windows NT services for Oracle components during
installation. However, the installer does not delete services created by Oracle Net
Configuration Assistant, OiD Configuration Assistant, and Oracle Database
To deinstall components with Oracle Universal Installer:
1. Ensure that you first follow the instructions in Section 4.5.1.
2. Choose Start > Programs > Oracle Installation Products > Universal Installer.
The Welcome window for Oracle Universal Installer appears.
3. Choose the Deinstall Products button.
The Inventory window appears.
4. Expand the tree of installed components until you find the components to
deinstall.
5. Check the boxes of components to deinstall.
6. Choose Remove.
The Confirmation window appears.
7. Choose Yes to deinstall the selected components.
The components are deinstalled from your computer. The Inventory window
appears without the deinstalled components.
8. Choose Close to close the Inventory window.
9. Choose Exit to exit Oracle Universal Installer.
4.5.3 Removing Oracle Keys From the Registry on Windows NT and Windows 2000
In rare situations, you may want to correct serious system problems by completely
removing Oracle components from the computer.
Note: A message may appear indicating that removing some
components may cause other components to not function properly.

Remove all Oracle components from your computer only as a last resort, and only if
you want to remove all Oracle components from your system.
Oracle Universal Installer does not delete services created by Oracle Net Configuration
Assistant, OiD Configuration Assistant, and Oracle Database Configuration Assistant.
In addition, several other registry keys are not deleted.
To remove the Oracle Net Service Registry Entry:
1. Log in as a member of the Administrators group.
3. Start the registry at the MS-DOS command prompt:
C:> regedt32
4. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServices and
delete the OracleHOME_NAMETNSListener registry entry. Oracle Universal
Installer automatically deletes all other Oracle Net Services.
5. Exit the registry.
To remove all Oracle components from a computer on Windows NT:
1. Log in as a member of the Administrators group.

This chapter describes the contents of the default starter database created through
Oracle Database Configuration Assistant for the Enterprise Edition, Standard Edition,
Personal Edition, Oracle Internet Directory, or Oracle Integration Server installation
types. Where possible, references to information applicable to the custom database
creation method are provided.

■ Section 5.6, "Redo Log Files Overview"
■ Section 5.7, "Control Files Overview"
■ Section 5.8, "Rollback Segments Overview"
■ Section 5.9, "Data Dictionary Overview"
5.1 Usernames and Passwords Overview
Oracle9i installs with a number of default database accounts. Oracle Database
Configuration Assistant locks and expires all default database accounts upon
successful installation with the following exceptions:
■ SYS
■ SYSTEM
■ SCOTT
■ DBSNMP
■ OUTLN
■ AURORA$ORB$UNAUTHENTICATED
■ AURORA$JIS$UTILITY$
■ OSE$HTTP$ADMIN

Usernames and Passwords Overview
You must unlock all other accounts before using them. Oracle Corporation
recommends changing all user passwords immediately after installation.
At a minimum, Oracle Database Configuration Assistant creates the SYS, SYSTEM, and
DBSNMP accounts in all databases. Additional accounts are created depending on the
components installed. Unlock accounts and change passwords before using these
accounts. Table 5–2 describes the accounts and passwords.
5.1.1 Unlocking and Changing Passwords
At the end of installation, several configuration assistants automatically start to create
and configure your database and network environments. One such assistant is the
Oracle Database Configuration Assistant. When Oracle Database Configuration
Assistant finishes your database configuration, it displays a screen with your database
information and the Password Management button. Use the Password Management
button to change this information immediately after installation.
To change a password during the database installation and configuration process:
1. From the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant window, choose the Password
Management button.
2. Select the username and clear the check mark.
3. Enter a new password and confirm the new password for each username.
Alternatively, use SQL*Plus to unlock accounts and change passwords any time after
the installation process.
To change a password after installation:
1. Start SQL*Plus:
C:> sqlplus /NOLOG
2. Connect as SYSDBA:
SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
WARNING: If installing Oracle Internet Directory, then change the
passwords for SYS and SYSTEM only after the Oracle Internet
Directory installation is complete.
Tip:
■ Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for information on Oracle
security procedures and security best practices
■ Oracle Enterprise Manager Administrator's Guide for information on
security management
Note: The Password Management button is not available when
using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant as a standalone tool.
Note: If you unlock a password, but do not specify a new
password, then the password is expired until the next time you
access that account.

3. Change the password according to the SQL commands indicated in Table 5–1:
5.1.2 Granting Limited SYS Database Role Privileges
Any database user can be granted limited SYS database role privileges to use the
Oracle Enterprise Manager Diagnostic Pack. Grant users access to these necessary SYS
privileges by granting the OEM_MONITOR role. This role is created when the database
is installed and is defined in the following SQL script:
ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMErdbmsadmincatsnmp.sql

Database Identification Overview
5.2 Database Identification Overview
The Oracle9i Database is identified by its global database name, which consists of the
database name and network domain in which the database is located. The global
database name uniquely distinguishes a database from any other database. You create
a global database name when prompted in the Oracle Universal Installer Database
Identification window during Oracle9i Database installation. The global database
name takes the form:
database_name.database_domain
For example:
sales.us.acme.com
The DB_NAME parameter (value sales) and DB_DOMAIN name parameter (value
us.acme.com) combine to create the global database name value assigned to the
SERVICE_NAMES parameter (valuesales.us.acme.com).

Table 5–2 (Cont.) Administrative User Names and Passwords

Oracle9i Services on Windows Overview
The system identifier (SID) identifies a specific Oracle9i instance that references the
database. The SID uniquely distinguishes a database instance from any other database
instance on the same computer. Multiple Oracle homes enable you to have multiple,
active Oracle databases on a single computer. Each database requires a unique global
database name, and each database instance on the same computer requires a unique
SID.
The SID name is taken from the value you entered for the database name in the
Database Identification window, although you had the opportunity to change it. The
SID can be up to 64 alphanumeric characters in length.
For example, if the SID and database name for an Oracle database are ORCL, each
database file is located in the ORACLE_BASEoradataorcl directory and the
initialization parameter file is located in the ORACLE_BASEadminorclpfile
directory. The directory orcl is named after the DB_NAME parameter value.
5.3 Oracle9i Services on Windows Overview
Two main Oracle services are automatically started after installation:
■ OracleServiceSID (the Oracle9i Database service)
■ OracleHOME_NAMETNSListener (the Oracle9i Database listener service)
If you installed Oracle Enterprise Manager components, additional services
automatically start:
■ OracleHOME_NAMEAgent
■ OracleHOME_NAMEManagementServer
■ OracleHOME_NAMEHTTPServer
However, other services for networking or other individual components may not
automatically start.
5.4 Tablespaces and Datafiles Overview
An Oracle9i Database is divided into smaller logical areas of space known as
tablespaces. Each tablespace corresponds to one or more physical datafiles. Datafiles
contain the contents of logical database structures such as tables and indexes. A
datafile can be associated with only one tablespace and database.
Table 5–3 list the tablespaces and datafiles in the Oracle9i Database. Datafiles are
located in the ORACLE_BASEoradataDB_NAME directory.
See Also:
■ Section 6.3, "Individual Component Postinstallation
Configuration Tasks"
■ "Oracle9i Services on Windows" of Oracle9i Database Getting
Starting for Windows for a complete list of services and
instructions on starting Oracle services in the Windows NT
Control Panel.
Note: Unless you specified different names with Oracle Database
Configuration Assistant, the tablespaces and datafiles described in
the following table are also automatically included in the Custom
database.

Tablespaces and Datafiles Overview
Table 5–3 Tablespaces and Datafiles

CWMLITE CWMLITE.DBF OLAP tablespace
DRSYS drsys01.dbf Oracle Text-related Schema objects.
EXAMPLE EXAMPLE01.DBF Sample Schema
INDX indx01.dbf Indexes associated with the data in the USERS tablespace.
TEMP temp01.dbf Temporary tables and/or indexes created during the
processing of your SQL statement. You may need to
expand this tablespace if you are executing a SQL
statement that involves a lot of sorting, such as the
constructs GROUP BY, ORDER BY, or DISTINCT.
TOOLS tools01.dbf Nothing. This datafile is created for use if the user wants
to install any third-party or Oracle tools/components.
SYSTEM system01.dbf The data dictionary, including definitions of tables, views,
and stored procedures needed by the Oracle9i Database.
Information in this area is maintained automatically. The
SYSTEM tablespace is present in all Oracle databases.
UNDOTBS UNDOTBS01.DBF A dedicated tablespaces that stores only undo
information when the database is run in automatic undo
management mode. An undo tablespace contains one or
more undo segments. Undo segments maintain
transaction history that is used to roll back, or undo,
changes to the database.
All starter databases are configured to run in automatic
undo management mode.
USERS users01.dbf Your application data. As you create and enter data into
tables, you fill this space with your data.
Note: If you choose to create a new repository and accept the
default settings when running Oracle Enterprise Manager
Configuration Assistant, a tablespace named OEM_REPOSITORY
and a datafile named oem_repository.ora are also created.

Initialization Parameter File Overview
5.5 Initialization Parameter File Overview
The starter database contains one database initialization parameter file located in the
ORACLE_BASEadminDB_NAMEpfile directory:
5.6 Redo Log Files Overview
The starter database contains three redo log files located in the ORACLE_
BASEoradataDB_NAME directory:
Initialization Parameter File Description
init.ora The parameter file init.ora must exist for an
instance to start. A parameter file is a text file that
contains a list of instance configuration parameters.
The starter database init.ora file has preconfigured
parameters. No edits are required to this file in order
to use the starter database.

A redo log can be either an online redo log
or an archived redo log. The online redo log
is a set of two or more redo log groups that
records all changes made to Oracle datafiles
and control files. An archived redo log is a
copy of an online redo log that has been
copied to an offline destination. If the
database is in ARCHIVELOG mode and
automatic archiving is enabled, then the
archive process or processes copy each
online redo log to one or more archive log
destinations after it is filled.

Data Dictionary Overview
5.7 Control Files Overview
The starter database contains three control files located in the ORACLE_BASE
oradataDB_NAME directory:
5.8 Rollback Segments Overview
Oracle9i databases are capable of managing their own undo (rollback) segments.
Administrators no longer need to carefully plan and tune the number and sizes of
rollback segments or decide how to strategically assign transactions to a particular
rollback segment. Oracle9i also allows administrators to allocate their undo space in a
single undo tablespace with the database taking care of issues such as undo block
contention, consistent read retention, and space utilization.
5.9 Data Dictionary Overview
The data dictionary is a protected collection of tables and views containing reference
information about the database, its structures, and its users. The data stored in the
dictionary includes the following:

Control Files Description
control01.ctl
control02.ctl
control03.ctl
A control file is an administrative file required to start and
run the database. The control file records the physical
structure of the database. For example, a control file
contains the database name, and the names and locations
of the database's datafiles and redo log files.
Note:
■ The files control01.ctl, control02.ctl, and
control03.ctl are also automatically included in the
Custom database.
■ Oracle Corporation recommends that you keep at least three
control files (on separate physical drives) for each database and
set the CONTROL_FILES initialization parameter to list each
control file.

Postinstallation Configuration Tasks 6-1
6Postinstallation Configuration Tasks
This chapter identifies postinstallation configuration tasks. Where appropriate, this
chapter references other guides for procedures on performing these configuration
tasks.
■ Section 6.1, "About NTFS File System and Windows NT Registry Permissions"
■ Section 6.2, "Validating Invalid PL/SQL Modules With the utlrp.sql Script"
■ Section 6.3, "Individual Component Postinstallation Configuration Tasks"
6.1 About NTFS File System and Windows NT Registry Permissions
Oracle Corporation recommends that you configure Oracle9i database files,
directories, and registry settings to allow only authorized database administrators
(DBAs) to have full control. These topics describe how to perform these tasks:
■ Section 6.1.1, "Setting NTFS File System Security"
■ Section 6.1.2, "Setting Windows NT Registry Security"
6.1.1 Setting NTFS File System Security
The Oracle9i database uses files to store database data, backup data, log information,
and so on. To do this, the Oracle9i database process runs under a security account.
This security account (the Windows NT LocalSystem account called SYSTEM) includes
the ability to create and access these files. The security account is assigned to the
service that the Oracle9i database uses (in the Control Panel). This account requires full
file system permissions to create, read, write, delete, and execute files.
To ensure that only authorized users have full file system permissions:
1. Go into Windows NT Explorer.
2. Right-click Oracle9i database files (in the ORACLE_BASEoradataDB_NAME
directory), executables and dynamic link libraries (in the ORACLE_BASEORACLE_
HOMEbin directory), and directories.
3. Select Properties from the menu that appears.
4. Adjust the file and directory permissions to ensure that:
■ Only the security account that the Oracle9i Database is configured to use has
full control permissions to these files
See Also: Your Windows NT documentation for more information
about modifying NTFS file system and Windows NT registry settings

Validating Invalid PL/SQL Modules With the utlrp.sql Script
■ User accounts that must run Oracle applications (for example, SQL*Plus and
Pro*C) have read privileges on their executables (for example, sqlplus.exe
for SQL*Plus)
6.1.2 Setting Windows NT Registry Security
Oracle Corporation recommends that you remove write permissions from users who
are not Oracle9i DBAs or system administrators in HKEY_LOCAL_
MACHINESOFTWAREORACLE of the Windows NT registry.
To remove write permissions:
1. Open the registry.
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREORACLE.
3. Select Permissions from the Security main menu.
The Registry Key Permissions dialog box appears.
4. Remove write permissions from any users who are not Oracle9i DBAs or system
administrators. Note that the SYSTEM account must have Full Control, since this is
the account with which the Oracle9i Database runs.
5. Ensure that user accounts that must run Oracle applications have read privileges.
6. Choose OK.
7. Exit the registry.
6.2 Validating Invalid PL/SQL Modules With the utlrp.sql Script
When the Oracle9i Database is created through the Enterprise Edition, Standard
Edition, or Personal Edition installation type, the utlrp.sql script is automatically
run. However, when an Oracle9i Database is created through the Custom installation
type, this script is not automatically run. Oracle Corporation recommends running the
utlrp.sql script after creating, upgrading, or migrating a database. This script
recompiles all PL/SQL modules that may be in an INVALID state, including packages,
procedures, types, and so on. This step is optional, but recommended so that the cost
of recompilation is incurred during the installation rather than in the future.
1. Start SQL*Plus:
C:>sqlplus
2. Connect to the database with the SYS account:
SQL>CONNECTSYS/PASSWORD AS SYSDBA
Note: The Oracle9i Database uses the Windows NT LocalSystem
built-in security account. Therefore, file permissions must be granted
to the SYSTEM account of the local computer running the Oracle9i
Database.
Note: There should be no other data definition language (DDL)
statements running on the database while it is running, and packages
STANDARD and DBMS_STANDARD must already be valid.

Individual Component Postinstallation Configuration Tasks
where PASSWORD is CHANGE_ON_INSTALL by default, unless you changed it after
installation.
3. Start the database (if necessary):
SQL>STARTUP
4. Run the utlrp.sql script:
SQL>@ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMErdbmsadminutlrp.sql
6.3 Individual Component Postinstallation Configuration Tasks
Some individual components require postinstallation configuration tasks. Table 6–1
lists configuration requirements and the sections or documents referenced for specific
configuration procedures. This table does not include postinstallation configuration
tasks for Oracle OLAP Services and Oracle Workflow.

Shared server support Configuration is dependent on
how support was installed. If
you installed the Oracle9i
database through the Enterprise
Edition, Standard Edition, or
Personal Edition installation
types, shared support was not
configured. If you created your
Oracle9i database through
Oracle Database Configuration
Assistant, you were offered a
choice of shared or dedicated

6.3.1 Oracle OLAP Services
■ Section 6.3.1.1, "OLAP Services Postinstallation Tasks"
■ Section 6.3.1.2, "CORBA Naming Service"
■ Section 6.3.1.3, "Unlocking OLAP Accounts and Changing OLAP Passwords"
■ Section 6.3.1.4, "Memory Requirements for MOLAP"
■ Section 6.3.1.5, "Changes to the Oracle OLAP API"
6.3.1.1 OLAP Services Postinstallation Tasks
After installing OLAP Services, perform the following additional steps.
1. Two scripts must be executed for the OLAP metadata to set up materialized views
correctly for the OLAP API.
To execute these scripts:
a. Unlock the OLAPSYS identity and reset the password.
b. Open SQL*Plus or SQL*Plus Worksheet from the Windows Program menu.
c. Log in using the OLAPSYS identity.
d. Execute these scripts:
@oracle_home/cwmlite/admin/onemrv.sql
@oracle_home/cwmlite/admin/onemrsyn.sql
2. The OLAP API client batch file must be edited so that the OLAP service name
appears in upper-case letters. To edit this file:
a. Use any text editor to open the batch file:
ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMEolapolapibinolapi.bat
b. Change the service name from lower- to upper-case letters in three places in
the last line of the file, in the -ServerName, -DORBagentAddr, and
-SessionIIOPService settings.
c. Save the file.
Pro*COBOL Pro*COBOL supports specific
compilers.
"Introducing Pro*COBOL" of
Pro*COBOL Precompiler Getting
Started for Windows
SQL*Plus help file If you want to use online help
with SQL*Plus, you must
populate the SQL*Plus tables
with help files.
"Installing SQL*Plus Help and
Demonstration Tables" of
SQL*Plus Getting Started for
Windows
Note: ORACLE_HOME is the pathname of your Oracle home directory,
such as c:OraHome90.

3. The SID must be appended to the SessionIIOPService configuration settings.
To edit the Windows registry where this value is stored:
a. Open the Windows Run dialog box and start regedit.
b. On the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE page, expand the folders for
SOFTWARE/ORACLE/OLAP/ExpressServer/OLAPServer.
c. Select OLAPI.
d. The registry settings appear in the right pane.
e. Double-click SessionIIOPService.
f. The Edit string dialog box is displayed.
g. In the Value data box, add the SID for your OLAP-enabled database to the end
of the value.
h. Choose OK.
6.3.1.2 CORBA Naming Service
An OLAP service automatically registers with the Oracle CORBA naming service,
which is provided with the Oracle database. Java clients that are connecting through
the OLAP API should use this naming service to locate the OLAP service.
6.3.1.3 Unlocking OLAP Accounts and Changing OLAP Passwords
Oracle9i OLAP Services uses the system-provided Oracle usernames OLAPSRV and
OLAPDBA to connect to the Oracle database. OLAP Services stores these passwords in
the Windows registry. If the password for an OLAP system username is changed in the
Oracle database before it is changed in the Windows registry, neither the Oracle9i
OLAP service nor Oracle9i OLAP Services Instance Manager can connect to the Oracle
database.
Because OLAP Services Instance Manager is used to save the OLAP system passwords
to the Windows registry in an encrypted form, you cannot update the system
passwords in the Windows registry if you cannot access OLAP Services Instance
Manager.
During installation of Oracle9i, you are prompted to unlock system-provided database
identities (usernames) and reset their passwords. If you reset the password using a
password other than the default password, the password in the database and the
password in the Windows registry do not match and you cannot access OLAP Services
Instance Manager. If you do not reset the password, Oracle expires the password and
you cannot access OLAP Services Instance Manager.
To prevent this situation, during installation you should do the following:
1. Unlock the username.
2. Reset the password to the default password as shown in the following table.
See Also:
■ "Connecting to a Data Store" of Oracle9i OLAP Services Developer's
Guide to the Oracle OLAP API
■ Technical Note Number A92121-01, "Getting the CORBA Stub for
an OLAP API Connection" available from
http://www.oracle.com/support/metalink/

After installation is complete, you can change the passwords for the OLAP Services
system usernames by first resetting the passwords in OLAP Services Instance Manager
and then resetting the password in the database.
6.3.1.4 Memory Requirements for MOLAP
The PageBufferCount configuration parameter has a default setting of 4096, which
is appropriate for ROLAP applications. Instances of OLAP Services that support
MOLAP applications require additional memory resources. To support MOLAP, set
PageBufferCount to NA to give OLAP Services access to half of the physical
memory. Note that you may need to fine tune this setting to allow sufficient memory
for the database to run on the same computer.
6.3.1.5 Changes to the Oracle OLAP API
The CURSOR_MANAGER_DATA_UPDATED event in the
CursorManagerUpdateEvent class is not supported in this release.
6.3.2 Oracle Workflow
■ Section 6.3.2.1, "Oracle Workflow Postinstallation Tasks"
■ Section 6.3.2.2, "workflow.log File"
■ Section 6.3.2.3, "Installing and Configuring Your Web Server for Oracle Workflow"
6.3.2.1 Oracle Workflow Postinstallation Tasks
You must perform a number of configuration procedures, including:
■ Editing the init.ora parameter file
■ Installing and configuring a Web server
■ Verifying your base URL
■ Setting up the Oracle Workflow Monitor and HTML help
6.3.2.2 workflow.log File
The workflow.log file produced during installation of Oracle Workflow can contain
sensitive information. To protect this sensitive information, either delete
workflow.log or change the permissions for the file so that only authorized
administrators can access it.

B Oracle Real Application Clusters
This appendix describes the required preinstallation tasks for cluster software and
Oracle Real Application Clusters on Windows. Windows-specific information is
described in this section and in the Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard online Help.
This appendix contains these topics:
■ Section B.1, "About Oracle Real Application Clusters"
■ Section B.2, "Preinstallation Tasks"
■ Section B.3, "Deleting Previous Versions of Oracle Operating System Dependent
Clusterware"
■ Section B.4, "Troubleshooting the Oracle Real Application Clusters Installation"
B.1 About Oracle Real Application Clusters
This appendix is intended for network administrators and database administrators
who install, configure, and use Oracle Real Application Clusters on Windows NT or
Windows 2000 clusters. This appendix assumes you are familiar with Oracle Real
Application Clusters concepts and Windows NT or Windows 2000 operating systems.
You must install and test your operating system for the cluster and network hardware
before installing Oracle Real Application Clusters.
■ Section B.1.1, "Real Application Clusters System Requirements"

■ Section B.1.2, "Node Preparation for a Real Application Clusters Installation"
■ Section B.1.3, "Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard Overview"
■ Section B.1.4, "Raw Devices Management Utilities Overview"
B.1.1 Real Application Clusters System Requirements
In addition to the system requirements listed in Chapter 2, you must meet these
requirements:
Hardware
Each node in a cluster requires the following hardware:
■ External shared hard disks
■ Certified hardware configurations
Software
Each node in a cluster requires the following software:
■ Certified vendor-supplied operating system dependent clusterware layer
■ Oracle operating system dependent clusterware layer
RAM
256 MB for each instance
B.1.1.1 About Hardware and Network Configuration
Before running the Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard, have the following information
available about your hardware and network configuration:
■ The public network names (known as host or TCP/IP names) of each node
■ Whether you have a high-speed private interconnect and, if so, what are the
private network names of each node
■ Whether you are using Virtual Interface Architecture (VIA) hardware and, if so,
what are the available Network Interface Card (NIC) names
B.1.2 Node Preparation for a Real Application Clusters Installation
You must create a specific number of logical drives on Windows computers prior to
running Oracle Universal Installer. Oracle Real Application Clusters uses logical
drives to store the control, data, and redo log files. You must properly configure logical
drives on shared disks in order to create an Oracle Real Application Clusters database
using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant.
B.1.2.1 About Extended Partitions and Logical Drives
An extended partition identifies raw space on the disk. Oracle9i database files can only
be stored on logical drives within an extended partition.
See Also: Section 2.2.2, "Oracle9i Database System Requirements"
Note: Creating a large number of logical partitions may cause a
significant increase in the time needed to reboot and start the disk
administration tools.

Only one extended partition can be created for each disk. Oracle Corporation
recommends creating the extended partition on an unpartitioned disk and using the
entire disk for the extended partition.
Windows 2000 offers two disk storage types: basic and dynamic. Create primary
partitions, an extended partition, and logical drives only on basic disks. A basic disk
uses the same partitions as earlier versions of Windows and contains up to four
primary partitions, or three primary partitions and one extended partition.
Within the extended partition, assign a symbolic name to each of the logical drives. For
example, for a database named db, use the following format for a symbolic link to the
logical drives created for the two redo log files, required for an instance of a cluster
database:
db_redo1_1
db_redo1_2
A symbolic link serves as a name for a logical drive which the Oracle database uses as
a datafile, such as db_system1 for the SYSTEM tablespace. It is also used when Oracle
Database Configuration Assistant copies the seed datafiles from the component
CD-ROMs. A copy of the datafile is made to db_system1 that links to a specific
logical drive.
The hard disk numbers may be different from node to node, but the number of logical
drives and the drive sizes must be identical. When the nodes are rebooted, the hard
disk and partition names can change, and symbolic link names can map to a different
partition. However, the physical disk remains the same. The Oracle Object
Service tracks and updates the symbolic links, so that the links are mapped correctly
after rebooting.
To use Oracle Database Configuration Assistant, you must configure logical drives as
described in this section. Create these devices before running Oracle Universal
Installer to install the Oracle9i Enterprise Edition software. Oracle Database
Configuration Assistant cannot create an Oracle Real Application Clusters database
unless you have properly configured these logical drives:
■ Seven for datafiles
■ Two for control files
■ One logical drive for each instance for the automatic undo tablespace (or one
rollback segment tablespace for the database if you do not use automatic undo
management)
■ At least two for redo log files for each instance
■ One for context
■ Recommended: One for the server parameter file
■ One for Oracle9i interMedia
■ One for Oracle OLAP Services
■ One for the Voting disk. This logical drive stores configuration data for Server
Management (SRVM) and for the Oracle Operating System Dependent clusterware
(Oracle operating system dependent clusterware). Vendor operating system
dependent clusterware requires the voting disk for Oracle Real Application
Clusters configuration information.
If you do not create the database with Oracle Database Configuration Assistant, then
the number of logical drives you create depends on the number of datafiles, redo log

files, and control files you plan to create. However, you must still create a logical drive
of 100 MB for the Voting disk.
B.1.2.2 Planning Your Logical Drives Configuration
Consider the following when planning your logical drives configuration:
■ Ensure that there are a few spare logical drives of the same size. You may need
these for emergency file relocations or additions if a tablespace unexpectedly
becomes full. If a logical drive is unused, you can drop it and recreate it as two
drives, as needed.
■ You cannot extend a logical drive after it has been created with Windows disk
management tools. Therefore, it is not possible to add more space to the logical
drive. As a consequence, the size of the datafile created in the logical drive
becomes a fixed size and cannot be extended.
To add more space to a database tablespace, create an extended partition with the
required size. Then execute the ALTER TABLESPACE tablespace_name ADD
DATAFILE SQL statement.
■ For best results, select a limited set of standard partition sizes for your entire
database. Partition sizes of 50 MB, 100 MB, 500 MB, and 1 GB are suitable for most
databases. Also create a few very small and very large spare partitions that are, for
example, 1 MB and perhaps 5 GB or greater in size.
■ Based on your plans for using each logical drive, determine the placement of the
spare logical drives. You can mix different sizes on one disk, or segment each disk
into same-sized drives.
When Oracle Database Configuration Assistant creates the database, it verifies that
you created the symbolic link names and the logical drives are sized to meet the
minimum size requirements. Use the tablespace size requirements in Table B–1 for the
General Purpose, Transaction Processing, and Data Warehouse database configuration
types. The preconfigured database options automatically create tablespaces and files
with the capacities shown in Table B–1. If you use the Customized database
configuration, use these recommended sizes as guidelines.
Note: Each instance of an Oracle Real Application Clusters
database has its own log files, but control files and datafiles are
shared by instances in a cluster. Each instance's log files must be
readable by all other instances to facilitate database recovery.
See Also: Oracle9i SQL Reference for additional ALTER
TABLESPACE syntax

Note: Windows disk management tools write a signature to the
first 1 MB of space on each physical disk. The first extended
partition created on each disk starts after this initial signature of
1 MB size. Therefore, when considering size requirements of your
disks for Oracle Real Application Clusters database usage,
remember to account for an initial 1 MB of space on each disk that
cannot be used for extended partitions.
Oracle Database Configuration Assistant's Customized database
creation type requires the extended partitions names and sizes
listed in Table B–1. These extended partitions contains database
control files, datafiles, and redo log files after an Oracle Real
Application Clusters database is created on them by Oracle
Table B–1 Logical Drive File Sizes for Oracle Database Configuration Assistant

SYSTEM tablespace 400 MB
Server parameter file 5 MB
USERS tablespace 120 MB
TEMP tablespace 100 MB

By default, Oracle Database Configuration Assistant uses automatic undo management. You should
have one undo tablespace for each instance. If you use manual undo management, make the RBS
tablespace raw device datafile at least 625 MB in size.

B.1.3 Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard Overview
The Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard performs the following tasks on all nodes:
■ Installs and starts Oracle9i operating system dependent clusterware
■ Installs Object Link Manager and starts the Oracle Object Service on all
nodes. This tool creates persistent symbolic links to the logical drives required for
an Oracle Real Application Clusters database. The service updates all nodes when
symbolic links are modified, and is set to Automatic, so that it starts whenever you
reboot.
■ Preserves existing symbolic link information created by previous invocations of
Oracle Object Link Manager
■ Installs other disk management tools on all nodes
■ Adds a node to an existing cluster
B.1.4 Raw Devices Management Utilities Overview
Additional disk management tools are installed by the Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard on
all nodes. These tools are not installed if you do not run Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard.
Table B–2 describes the disk management tools.
Note: Undo tablespace raw device datafiles for the preconfigured
Transaction Processing and General Purpose database templates
should be at least 200 MB each.
If you use the preconfigured Data Warehousing database, then
create a raw device datafile for an undo tablespace for the first
instance that is at least 625 MB in size. For subsequent instances,
create undo tablespace raw device datafiles that are at least 200 MB
in size.
If you use the New Database template with automatic undo
management, then divide the 625 MB among the instances. If you
have more than two instances, make sure that the undo tablespace
raw device datafiles are at least 50 MB in size.
If you use manual undo management, make the RBS tablespace
raw device datafile at least 625 MB in size.
Note: Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard installs Oracle9i operating
system dependent clusterware and raw device management
utilities. If you do not use Cluster Setup Wizard, then Oracle Object
Link Manager and the raw device management utilities do not get
installed until Oracle Universal Installer is run. The raw device
management utilities are required to configure a raw device before
Oracle Universal Installer is invoked. If you intend to use vendor
operating system dependent clusterware instead of Oracle9i
operating system dependent clusterware, then you can temporarily
install the raw device management utilities.

■ Mappings Do Not Appear
■ Unable to Start a Dedicated Server Process
■ Windows NT Disk Administrator Cannot Create Logical Drives
■ Compatibility Issues for Physical Partitions and Logical Drives
Performing Cluster Diagnostics
If Oracle Universal Installer does not display the Node Selection page, perform
clusterware diagnostics by executing the lsnodes -v command and analyzing its
output.
From the preinstall_rac directory, execute the following:
lsnodes -v
Refer to your clusterware documentation if the detailed output indicates that your
clusterware is not running.
Terminal Services Client on Windows 2000
Do not use Terminal Services Client with any of the disk management tools. Changes
may not apply.
Note:: For Oracle Parallel Server releases 8.0 and 7.3, stop the
OraclePGMSService.

Stopping Preexisting Oracle Services
You may get the following warning message while using the Cluster Setup Wizard if
you have OracleGSDService or OracleServiceSID running on any of the nodes
in the cluster you are creating:
The nodes that we are trying to install the software on could not be
cleaned completely
Please stop these services on all the nodes and then start Oracle Cluster Setup Wizard
again.
Mappings Do Not Appear
If mappings do not appear in the Object Link Manager, make sure the Oracle
Object Service is started on all nodes in the cluster.
Unable to Start a Dedicated Server Process
Make sure OracleServiceSID and OracleHOME_NAMETNSListener run under
the same Windows NT account with the same user ID.
Windows NT Disk Administrator Cannot Create Logical Drives
Most likely, an extended partition was not created. Create the extended partition and
the multiple logical drives within the extended partition.
Compatibility Issues for Physical Partitions and Logical Drives
Question:
What is the impact if I have created logical drives, but defined physical disk
convention names for them. For example:
PhysicalDrivesys1=DeviceHarddisk2Partition1
PhysicalDriveusr1=DeviceHarddisk3Partition1
Answer:
An Oracle database handles the datafile using the physical disk convention, even
though it really is a logical drive. This will not cause any data corruption or loss, as
long as you continue using the physical disk naming conventions. Oracle Corporation
recommends that you convert to the logical drive at your earliest convenience.
Question:
What is the impact if I have created logical names representing Partition0. For
example:
db_system1=DeviceHarddisk1Partition0
Answer:
This poses severe problems because the Disk Administrator typically writes a
signature into the first block of every disk, and consequently the Oracle database may
overwrite a portion of the signature with a datafile header.
Note: This may also cause data loss. Never use Partition0 with
the logical partition convention.

Question:
How do I transfer the contents of any raw partition to a standard file system for
backup purposes?
Answer:
Use the Oracle utility OCOPY to copy data to or from a raw partition for both physical
partitions and logical drives.
The physical partition and logical drive conventions are not compatible with one
another due to the extra block that is skipped for physical raw conventions. This also
means you cannot simply do an OCOPY command from a physical disk to a logical
drive, as the contents of these partitions are incompatible.
If your database installation uses physical disk conventions with logical drives, Oracle
Corporation recommends converting to the logical drive conventions using these
steps.
To convert from a physical convention to a logical convention:
1. Perform a full database export to a (local) file system.
2. Create logical drives and define logical names for these partitions.
3. Re-create the database using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant on the new
logical drives.
4. Perform the full database import to the newly-created database.

■ Section D.3, "About Web-based Installations"
D.1 About Oracle Components in Noninteractive Mode
Typically, Oracle Universal Installer runs in interactive mode, which means you are
prompted to provide information in windows. However, experienced users can also
run Oracle Universal Installer in noninteractive (also called silent) mode by using
response files. These are text files containing variables and values used by Oracle
Universal Installer during the installation process.
Silent installations are recommended in cases when no interaction with the user is
intended or when a nongraphical terminal is used. The user needs to first edit a
response file to specify the components to install. With Oracle Universal Installer
(OUI) release 1.7.x or earlier, the target installation system still requires login to a
desktop system on Windows NT.
Using silent installation enables you to bypass the graphical user interface (GUI) of
Oracle Universal Installer interactive mode. Table D–1 lists the available response files
in the Response directory on the first component CD-ROM:

D.1.2 Creating a Single Installation Stage From Multiple CD-ROMs
Release 1 (9.0.1) is included on three component CD-ROMs. This means that you may
not be able to answer all installation questions, walk away, and expect the installation
to be finished upon return. It is possible to copy the contents of the three CD-ROMs to
a hard disk staging area so that Oracle Universal Installer finds the second and third
CD-ROMs without prompting.
To create a single installation stage from multiple CD-ROMs:
1. Ensure that you have enough disk space on your hard drive to hold the contents of
three CD-ROMs.
2. Create three directories at the same level on your hard drive with the names
Disk1, Disk2, and Disk3. You must use these names.
3. Copy the contents of component CD-ROM 1 of 3 to the directory named Disk1.
6. Run setup.exe from the directory named Disk1.
Installation proceeds without prompting you to insert additional component
CD-ROMs.

D.1.3 Running Oracle Universal Installer and Specifying a Response File
To run Oracle Universal Installer and specify the response file:
1. Go to the MS-DOS command prompt.
2. Go to the directory where Oracle Universal Installer is installed.
3. Run the appropriate response file. For example,
C:programfilesoracleouiinstall>setup.exe-RESPONSEFILEfilena
me-SILENT-NOWELCOME
D.1.4 Running Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant in Silent Mode
You can silently run Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant as a
standalone component or as part of a silent installation session to create a repository.
Advanced features, such as repository upgrade, deletion, and modification from silent
mode are not supported. These advanced features of Oracle Enterprise Manager
Configuration Assistant must be performed in interactive mode.
Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant in silent mode only supports
repository creation.
D.1.4.1 Silently Running Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant as a
Standalone Component
1. Ensure that Oracle Management Server is installed on the computer on which to
silently run Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant.
2. Verify that ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMEbin is set in the Windows NT or 2000
environment path.
3. Copy the emca.rsp response file from the Response file directory of the first
component CD-ROM to a local directory.
4. Edit emca.rsp by following the instructions in the file.
Where... Description
filename Identifies the full path of the specific response file
-SILENT Runs Oracle Universal Installer in complete silent
mode. The Welcome window is suppressed
automatically. This parameter is optional. If you use
-SILENT, -NOWELCOME is not necessary.
-NOWELCOME Suppresses the Welcome window that appears
during installation. This parameter is optional.
See Also: Oracle Universal Installer Concepts Guide
Important: If you create more than one Oracle Enterprise Manager
repository in a network, then each Oracle Enterprise Manager
repository username must be unique. Ensure that the value specified
for the repository USERNAME variable in the emca.rsp file is unique
across your network.
It is extremely important to ensure that the name of each repository
user created is unique across your entire network. If you use the same
response file more than once to create a repository, the repositories
created must be on separate networks.

5. Navigate to ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMEbin.
6. Run emca.rsp from the command prompt:
C:ORACLE_BASEORACLE_
HOMEbin>emca-RESPONSEFILEpathemca.rsp-SILENT
where path is the path to emca.rsp. For example, C:temp.
D.1.4.2 Running Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant in a Silent
Installation Session
Oracle Management Server is automatically installed with the enterprise.rsp,
standard.rsp, and personal.rsp response files. If you use these response files to
install Oracle Management Server and you want to create a new repository, you must
run Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant after the silent installation.
You can either run Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant interactively to
create the repository, or you can edit and run the emca.rsp response file to silently
create the repository. Automatically running Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration
Assistant silently after:
■ An enterprise.rsp, standard.rsp or personal.rsp response file
installation is not supported
■ A custom.rsp response file installation is supported. Refer to the steps in this
section for instructions
To automatically start Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant during a
Custom Oracle9i Database, an Oracle Management Server, or a Custom Oracle9i
Management and Integration response file installation, perform the following steps:
1. Copy the parent installation response file to a local directory. Oracle Management
Server, which must be installed with the parent silent installation, is only available
for installation in the following parent response files:
■ custom.rsp
■ oms.rsp
■ omicustom.rsp
2. Edit the file by following the instructions in that file.
3. Ensure that Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant starts in silent
mode by editing the following variables in the [oracle.sysman.oms_
9.0.1.0.0] section of the parent response file:
OPTIONAL_CONFIG_TOOLS
launchEMCA
s_responseFileEMCA
Important: Ensure that the value specified for the repository
USERNAME variable in the emca.rsp file is unique across your
network.
Note: -RESPONSEFILE and -SILENT parameters are required when
running emca.rsp.

4. Copy the emca.rsp response file to a local directory.
5. Edit emca.rsp by following the instructions in the file.
6. Go to the directory where Oracle Universal Installer is installed.
7. Run the parent response file. This automatically starts the Oracle Enterprise
Manager Configuration Assistant response file (emca.rsp) when silent
installation is complete. For example,
C:>setup.exe-RESPONSEFILEfilename-SILENT
where filename is the full path of the parent response file.
An example of an updated [oracle.sysman.oms_9.0.1.0.0] section of a
parent response file for Windows NT and Windows 2000 is partially shown below:

■ Section E.1, "About NLS_LANG Parameters"
■ Section E.2, "Commonly Used Values for NLS_LANG"
■ Section E.3, "NLS_LANG Settings in MS-DOS Mode and Batch Mode"
E.1 About NLS_LANG Parameters
Oracle provides Globalization Support that enables users to interact with a database in
their own language, as defined by the NLS_LANG parameter. When you install Oracle9i
components, the NLS_LANG parameter is set in the registry.
The default value of the NLS_LANG parameter at installation is automatically chosen
based on the locale setting of the operating system. The operating system locale and
NLS_LANG value mappings are listed in Section E.2.
The NLS_LANG parameter is stored in the registry under the HKEY_LOCAL_
MACHINESOFTWAREORACLEHOMEIDNLS_LANG subkey, where ID is the unique
number identifying the Oracle home.
The NLS_LANG parameter uses the following format:
NLS_LANG=LANGUAGE_TERRITORY.CHARACTER_SET
where:
■ LANGUAGE
Specifies the language and conventions for displaying messages, day name, and
month name.
■ TERRITORY
Specifies the territory and conventions for calculating week and day numbers.
■ CHARACTER_SET
Controls the character set used for displaying messages.

Globalization Support E-3
E.3 NLS_LANG Settings in MS-DOS Mode and Batch Mode
When using the Oracle Internet Directory command line tools and Oracle utilities such
as SQL*Plus, SQL Loader, Import, and Export in MS-DOS mode, the character set field
of the NLS_LANG parameter for the session must first be set to the correct value.
This is required because MS-DOS mode uses, with a few exceptions, a different
character set (or code-page) from Windows (ANSI code-page), and the default Oracle
home NLS_LANG parameter in the registry is always set to the appropriate Windows
code-page. If the NLS_LANG parameter for the MS-DOS mode session is not set
appropriately, error messages and data can be corrupted due to incorrect character set
conversion.
For Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese, the MS-DOS
code-page is identical to the ANSI code-page. In this case, there is no need to set the
NLS_LANG parameter in MS-DOS mode.
Similarly, in batch mode, set the correct character set value of the NLS_LANG by
inserting a SETNLS_LANG command at the start of the batch procedure, according to
the character set of the files to be processed in the procedure.

Components
This appendix describes how to install and remove Legato Storage Manager (LSM)
components.
■ Section F.1, "About LSM Server"
■ Section F.2, "About LSM Administrator GUI"
F.1 About LSM Server
LSM server is a media management layer (MML). An MML, such as LSM, is required
for backing up and restoring from tape storage if you are using Recovery Manager
(RMAN) for Oracle database backups and restores. LSM is a scaled-down version of
Legato NetWorker.
This section describes how to perform the following steps:
■ Section F.1.1, "Updating LSM Server"
■ Section F.1.2, "Installing LSM Server"
■ Section F.1.3, "Removing LSM Server"
F.1.1 Updating LSM Server
To update to a newer version of LSM server:
1. Perform a partial removal of LSM server by following the steps in Section F.1.3
and selecting Partial Removal.
Note: You do not need to separately install these two Legato
components on the same computer. The LSM server software includes
LSM Administrator GUI. If you install LSM server, do not separately
install LSM Administrator GUI on the same computer. To administer
LSM server from a separate Windows NT or Windows 2000 computer,
install LSM Administrator GUI on that Windows NT or Windows
2000 computer using the instructions in Section F.2.2.
Note: If you install LSM server software according to the instructions
in this section, you do not need to separately install LSM
Administrator GUI on the same computer.

Glossary
automatic undo management mode
A mode of the database in which undo data is stored in a dedicated undo tablespace.
Unlike in manual undo management mode, the only undo management that you
must perform is the creation of the undo tablespace. All other undo management is
performed automatically.
cluster
A cluster generally comprises two or more computers, or "nodes." Oracle Real
Application Clusters software and a collection of hardware, known as a "cluster," unite
the processing power of each component to become a single, robust computing
environment. Oracle Real Application Clusters is a robust computing environment
that harnesses the processing power of multiple, interconnected computers.
connect descriptor
A specially formatted description of the destination for a network connection. A
connect descriptor contains destination service and network route information.
The destination service is indicated by using its service name for the Oracle9i Database
or its Oracle system identifier (SID) for Oracle release 8.0, or version 7 databases. The
network route provides, at a minimum, the location of the listener through use of a
network address.
connect identifier
A name, net service name, or service name that resolves to a connect descriptor. Users
initiate a connect request by passing a username and password along with a connect
identifier in a connect string for the service to which they want to connect, for
example:
SQL> CONNECT username/password@connect_identifier
default domain
The network domain within which most client requests take place. It can be the
domain where the client resides, or a domain from which the client often requests
network services. The default domain is also the client configuration parameter that
determines what domain to append to unqualified network name requests. A name
request is unqualified if it does not have a "." character within it.

A subtree that is of significance within a directory server. It is usually the top of some
organizational subtree. Some directories only allow one such context that is fixed;
others allow none to many to be configured by the directory administrator.
directory naming
A naming method that specifies a directory server to resolve a net service name into a
connect descriptor. The net service name is stored centrally in a directory server.
directory server
An Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)-compliant directory server. A
directory can provide centralized storage and retrieval of database network
components, user and corporate policies preferences, user authentication, and security
information, replacing client-side and server-side localized files.
external procedures
A PL/SQL routine executing on an Oracle server can call an external procedure or
function that is written in the C programming language and stored in a shared library.
In order for the Oracle9i Database to connect to external procedures, the server must
be configured with a net service name and the listener must be configured with
protocol address and service information.
global database name
The full database name that uniquely distinguishes it from any other database in your
network domain. For example:
sales.us.acme.com
where sales is the name you want to call your database and us.acme.com is the
network domain in which the database is located.
Interprocess Communication (IPC)
A protocol used by client applications that resides on the same node as the listener to
communicate with the database. IPC can provide a faster local connection than
TCP/IP.
installation type
An installation type is a predefined component set that automatically selects which
components to install. See Section 1.2.3, "Oracle9i Products for Installation" for a list of
installation types available with each top-level component.
ldap.ora file
A file created by the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant that contains the following
directory access information:
■ Type of directory
■ Location of directory
■ Default administrative context the client or server uses to look up or configure
connect identifiers for connections to database services
The ldap.ora file resides in ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMEnetworkadmin.
listener
A process that resides on the server whose responsibility is to listen for incoming client
connection requests and manage the traffic to the server.

net service name
Glossary-3
When a client requests a network session with a database server, a listener receives the
actual request. If the client information matches the listener information, then the
listener grants a connection to the database server.
listener.ora file
A configuration file for the listener that identifies the:
■ Listener name
■ Protocol addresses on which it is accepting connection requests
■ Services for which it is listening
The listener.ora file resides in ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMEnetworkadmin.
An Oracle9i Database does not require identification of the database service because of
service registration. However, static service configuration is required for an Oracle9i
Database if you plan to use Oracle Enterprise Manager.
local naming
A naming method that resolves a net service name into a connect descriptor. This
name is configured and stored in the tnsnames.ora file on each individual client.
manual undo management mode
A mode of the database in which undo blocks are stored in user-managed rollback
segments. In automatic undo management mode, undo blocks are stored in
system-managed, dedicated undo tablespaces.
naming method
A resolution method used by a client application to resolve a connect identifier to a
network address when attempting to connect to a database service. Oracle Net
Services supports the following naming methods:
■ Local naming
■ Directory naming
■ Oracle Names
■ Host naming
■ External naming
net service name
A simple name for a service that resolves to a connect descriptor. Users initiate a
connect request by passing a username and password along with a net service name in
a connect string for the service to which they want to connect:
SQL> CONNECT username/password@net_service_name
Depending on your needs, net service names can be stored in a variety of places,
including:
■ Local configuration file, tnsnames.ora, on each client
■ Directory server
■ Oracle Names server
■ External naming service, such as Network Information Service (NIS) or Cell
Directory Service (CDS)

operating system authenticated connections
Glossary-4
Windows NT login credentials can be used to authenticate users connecting to an
Oracle9i database. The benefits of Windows NT native authentication include:
■ Enabling users to connect to multiple Oracle9i databases without supplying a
username or password
■ Centralizing Oracle9i database user authorization information in Windows NT,
which frees Oracle9i from storing or managing user passwords
OPS$
The initialization file parameter OS_AUTHENT_PREFIX enables users to specify a
prefix that Oracle uses to authenticate users attempting to connect to the database.
Oracle concatenates the value of this parameter to the beginning of the user's
operating system account name and password. When a connection request is
attempted, Oracle compares the prefixed username with Oracle user names in the
database.
The default value of this parameter is "" (a null string), thereby eliminating the
addition of any prefix to operating system account names. In earlier releases, OPS$
(short for operating system specific) was the default setting.
Oracle Context
The root of a directory subtree with a relative distinguished name of
cn=OracleContext, under which all Oracle software information is kept. There may
be one (or more than one) Oracle Context in a directory. An Oracle Context can be
associated with a directory naming context.
The Oracle Context can contain the following Oracle entries:
■ Connect identifiers for use with Oracle Net Services directory naming to make
database connections
■ Enterprise user security for use with Oracle Advanced Security
Oracle home name
The name of the current Oracle home. Each Oracle home has a home name that
distinguishes it from all other Oracle homes on your computer. During installation,
you are prompted to enter an Oracle home name in the Name field of the Oracle
Universal Installer's File Locations window.
Oracle home
The directory path in which to install Oracle components (for example,
D:oracleora90). You are prompted to enter an Oracle home in the Path field of
the Oracle Universal Installer's File Locations window.
Oracle Management Server
The middle tier of Oracle Enterprise Manager, which provides centralized intelligence
and distribution control between console clients and managed nodes.
Oracle schema
A set of rules that determine what can be stored in an LDAP-compliant directory
server. Oracle has its own schema that is applied to many types of Oracle entries,
including Oracle Net Services entries. The Oracle schema for Oracle Net Services
entries includes the attributes the entries may contain.

service registration
Glossary-5
Oracle9i Database Online Documentation CD-ROM
The CD-ROMs in your kit that include the Oracle9i Database Online Documentation.
The Oracle9i Database Online Documentation CD-ROMs are separate from the
component CD-ROMs.
The Oracle9i Database Online Documentation CD-ROMs do not include this
installation guide or Oracle9i release notes for Windows. These documents are only
included on the first component CD-ROM.
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition
The complete database type.
Oracle9i Personal Edition
One of the available Oracle9i database types. Oracle9i Personal Edition for Windows
NT and Windows 2000 does not include Oracle Real Application Clusters.
Oracle9i Standard Edition
One of the available Oracle9i Database types. Oracle9i Standard Edition does not
include Oracle Advanced Security, Oracle COM Automation Feature, Oracle OLAP
Services, Oracle Partitioning, Oracle Real Application Clusters, and Oracle Spatial.
protocol address
An address that identifies the network address of a network object.
When a connection is made, the client and the receiver of the request, such as the
listener, Oracle Names Server, or Oracle Connection Manager, are configured with
identical protocol addresses. The client uses this address to send the connection
request to a particular network object location, and the recipient "listens" for requests
on this address. It is important to install the same protocols for the client and the
connection recipient, as well as configure the same addresses.
repository
A set of tables in an Oracle database that store information regarding the state of
services managed and monitored by Oracle Enterprise Manager, as well as
information about the separately licensable management packs. It is used as a
back-end store by the Oracle Management Servers.
sqlnet.ora file
A configuration file for the client or server that specifies the:
■ Client domain to append to unqualified service names or net service names
■ Order of naming methods for the client to use when resolving a name
■ Logging and tracing features to use
■ Route of connections
■ Preferred Oracle Names servers
■ External naming parameters
■ Oracle Advanced Security parameters
The sqlnet.ora file resides in ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMEnetworkadmin.
service registration
A feature by which the PMON process (an instance background process) automatically
registers information with a listener. Because this information is registered with the

SID
Glossary-6
listener, the listener.ora file does not need to be configured with this static
information.
Service registration provides the listener with the following information:
■ Service name(s) for each running instance of the database
■ Instance name(s) of the database
■ Service handlers (dispatchers and dedicated servers) available for each instance
This allows the listener to direct a client's request appropriately.
■ Dispatcher, instance, and node load information
This allows the listener to determine which dispatcher can best handle a client
connection's request. If all dispatchers are blocked, the listener can spawn a
dedicated server for the connection.
This information allows the listener to determine how best to service a client
connection request.
SID
The Oracle system identifier that uniquely distinguishes the database from any other
database on your computer. The SID automatically defaults to the database name
portion of the global database name (sales in the example sales.us.acme.com)
until you reach eight characters or enter a period. You can accept or change the default
value.
Note: For Oracle Real Application Clusters, the SID you enter is automatically
appended with an identifier. For example, if DB is entered, the first instance in the
cluster is given a SID of DB1, and the second instance is given a SID of DB2.
system identifier
See SID.
Terminal Server
Microsoft Windows Terminal Server is a Windows thin-client terminal server, a
product that adds support for multiple, simultaneous client sessions on the Windows
NT Server. Windows Terminal Server provides an operating system graphical user
interface (GUI) to users of Oracle9i databases.
tnsnames.ora file
A configuration file that contains net service names mapped to connect descriptors.
This file is used for the local naming method. The tnsnames.ora file resides in
ORACLE_BASEORACLE_HOMEnetworkadmin.
top-level components
When you run Oracle Universal Installer from the component CD-ROM, you are
prompted in the Available Products window to install a top-level component. Each
top-level component contains several installation types from which to choose. Each
installation type contains a predefined set of individual components. See Section 1.2.3,
"Oracle9i Products for Installation" for a list of installation types available with each
top-level component.
UNC
See Universal Naming Convention (UNC)

Virtual Interface Architecture (VIA)
Glossary-7
undo tablespace
A dedicated tablespace that stores only undo information when the database is run in
automatic undo management mode. An undo tablespace contains one or more undo
segments. The creation of any other types of segment (for example, tables, indexes) in
undo tablespaces is not allowed.
In the automatic mode, each Oracle instance is assigned one and only one undo
tablespace. Each undo tablespace is composed of a set of undo files. Undo blocks are
grouped in extents. At any point in time, an extent is either allocated to (and used by)
a transaction table, or is free.
Blocks in undo tablespaces are grouped into the following categories:
■ File control blocks, bitmap blocks, and so forth used for space management
■ Undo segments containing transaction table blocks, undo blocks, and extent-map
blocks used for transaction management
■ Free blocks that are unallocated to file control or undo segments
unqualified name
A net service name that does not contain a network domain.
Universal Naming Convention (UNC)
The Universal Naming Convention provides a means to access files on a network
without mapping the network drive to a drive letter. UNC names are constructed in
the following manner:
computer nameshare namefilename
Virtual Interface Architecture is an industry-standard architecture for intercluster
communications. VIA's rapid server-to-server communication enhances an
application's scalability and performance. VIA does this by allowing a single
application to run efficiently across dozens of clustered nodes and by accelerating the
data exchange among distributed application modules running on different
application servers.
