to R1 or to R2
In the past, most of my customers skipped R1 releases. That is, 8.1.7 -> 9.2 -> 10.2 -> 11.2. SAP does the same. For the very first time SAP plans to go to 12.1.0.2 + some PSU in spring 2015. But only to avoid running out of support and without any fancy feature like Multitenant […]

The new metalink interface
I just started using the New My Oracle Support User Interface It is a zero-flash interface with more capabilities than the “html” interface we used the previous years. It still provides about the same browser experience as the flash one. Have a try… according to Oracle : “it will eventually replace the Flash version” To […]

Oracle 11.2.0.3
my first ADR package
You got an internal error and want to create a zip of all relevant files. First, let’s generate an internal error. I found a quick way to generate an ora-600 or an ora-700 (which is a harmless ora-600 in 11g, read 737878.1) on oradeblog SQL> oradebug unit_test dbke_test dde_flow_kge_soft foo bar baz Statement processed. Now […]

11.2.0.2
I have read on Surachart Opun’s blog that 11.2.0.2 is available, but also that the patchset is now a full installation. In the past, if you wanted to have 9.2.0.8 or 10.2.0.5, you needed to install both the base version, 9.2.0.1 or 10.2.0.1 and the patchset, 9.2.0.8 or 10.2.0.5. Very often the patchset itself was […]
what’s up last weeks?

Happy New Year 2010
It is quite a while I have not posted anything of interest, I pretty apologize to my faithful readers… the reason for being offline are multiple, one of them, I cannot access my blog from my workplace yet. Ok, the last hint from my dba regarding Oracle Support : If flash really drives you nuts, […]
dealing with support
It is quite a long time I did shot the pianist in my blog… probably patience and perseverance are better than aggressive behavior, but today I have been transfixed by an answer from metalink. Sometimes the issues I submit are a bit exotic but there it was a join with one view using one function […]

Oracle on Mac
I just read a post from Barry Mc Gillin about apex on MacOsX. After having being using Vista for one year, I would really welcome a Mac as my next notebook. But what about Oracle Database on Mac OS X? According to otn, the latest release as of today is a deprecated 10gR1 for the […]

DITO
I never used Oracle Web Conference OWC, for security reason. Today I created one SR and read first time about Demo It To Oracle (DITO). This is basically a link CamStudio.org, which is a tool that records AVI file and converts AVI to flash SWF file. This is nice to have because you do need […]
