The above issue caused due to the incorrect version or missing of openmotif21 package.

Oracle EBS Cloning with File System Cold Backup

Applies to:
Oracle EBS R12.1.3
Database 11.1.0.7.0
Operating System Oracle Enterprise Linux Server 5.8

Description:
Production hostname is EBSPROD
Test hostname is EBSTEST

Solution:
I am going to clone my Production server using file system cold backup.

Execute adpreclone.pl on DB Tier of EBSPROD:
$ cd /d01/oracle/PROD/db/tech_st/11.1.0/appsutil/scripts/PROD_ebsprod
$ perl adpreclone.pl dbTier pwd=apps

After completion of above script, then go to APPS Tier of EBSPROD:
$ cd /d01/oracle/PROD/inst/apps/PROD_ebsprod/admin/scripts
$ perl adpreclone.pl appsTier pwd=apps

After complete the above script, shutdown all services of APPS and DB and make tar files:

$ tar -czf PROD_DB_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz /d01/oracle/PROD/db
$ tar -czf PROD_APPS_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz /d01/oracle/PROD/apps
$ tar -czf PROD_INST_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz /d01/oracle/PROD/inst
$ tar -czf PROD_ARC_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz /archivelogs

After installation of OS and all necessary RPM’s and configuration, copy the above files on EBSTEST.

Now untar the above files one by one:

$ tar –xzvf /backup/PROD_DB_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz
$ tar –xzvf /backup/PROD_APPS_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz
$ tar –xzvf /backup/PROD_INST_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz
$ tar –xzvf /backup/PROD_ARC_15Mar17_0030.tar.gz

 

Now start the cloning process on DB Tier first:

Database Tier has been successfully cloned. All services of Database Tier are up and running.

Now we are going to start the cloning process at APPS Tier:

 We have cloned successfully.

ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system

MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system

Applies to:

            Oracle Enterprise Linux – Version: 5

            Oracle Database 11gR2

Description:

            I am going to create a new TEST instance from Production database. Hardware resources on TEST server less than from Production server. After restore the backup when I am going to start the database I got the following error message:

SQL> connect / as sysdba
Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> startup;
ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system

Solution:

After some research work I have found the following solution:

·         Check out /dev/shm is properly mounted by using following commands:
#df -h or #df -k command

·         Size of /dev/shm should be greater than MEMORY_TARGET or MEMMORY_MAX_TARGET parameter value

·         We see that /dev/shm have assigned 2G memory, and MEMORY_TARGET more than 2G then above ORA-845 will arise.

·         If you have MEMORY_TARGET or MEMORY_MAX_TARGET set to 4G then you should mount shared memory to greater than 4G.

·         Now login to root user and execute the following commands to fix the error:

# umount tmpfs
# mount -t tmpfs shmfs -o size=5G /dev/shm

·         In order to make the settings persistence you should add an entry in /etc/fstab similar to the following:
shmfs /dev/shm tmpfs size=5G 0
