Version related commands/scripts on appln side

To check the oracle application framework version
http://hostname.domain.com:8000/OA_HTML/OAInfo.jsp

Execute the following command to determine the version of OA.jsp:
ident $FND_TOP/html/OA.jsp and
ident $OA_HTML/OA.jsp

Attention: The version of OA.jsp in $FND_TOP/html should be the same as the one in $OA_HTML if the version of OA.jsp does not match do the following :

Run adadmin.
Choose the option called Maintain Application Files.
Choose the option called Copy files to destination.

If the ident command return any version information for OA.jsp then you have not installed the Oracle Applications Self Service Framework.
Note: ident is not available on SUN & AIX. In this instance please use:

adident Header $FND_TOP/html/OA.jsp and
adident Header $OA_HTML/OA.jsp

How to check whether GSM is enabled or not thru the back end

DEFAULT_TEMP_TABLESPACE
TEMP

Because this is the default temporary tablespace Oracle won't let you drop it. Here are the steps needed to drop your default temporary tablespace.

1) Create a New Temporary Tablespace
First, you will need to create a new temporary tablespace...in this example I've called the tablespace "TEMPX". Note that I purposefully made the tablespace small in size (10mb). This is because we will drop this tablespace at the end of this process.

SQL> CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMPX
2 TEMPFILE '/data/tempx.dbf' SIZE 10M AUTOEXTEND OFF
3 EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 1024K
4 SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT MANUAL
/

Tablespace created.


2) Make Your New Temporary Tablespace the Default Temporary Tablespace
SQL> ALTER DATABASE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE tempx;

Database altered.


3) Drop Your Original Temporary Tablespace
SQL> DROP TABLESPACE temp INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES;

Tablespace dropped.


4) Recreate Your 'TEMP' Tablespace
SQL> CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
2 TEMPFILE '/data/temp.dbf' SIZE 1000M AUTOEXTEND OFF
3 EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 1024K
4 SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT MANUAL
/
or
"SQL> CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP TEMPFILE '/d23/oraptch/ptchdata/temp01.dbf' SIZE 50M
2 AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 50M MAXSIZE 2048M,
3 '/d23/oravis/visdata/temp02.dbf' SIZE 50M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 50M MAXSIZE 2048M,
4 '/d23/oravis/visdata/temp03.dbf' SIZE 50M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 50M MAXSIZE 2048M,
5 '/d23/oravis/visdata/temp04.dbf' SIZE 50M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 50M MAXSIZE 2048M
6 EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 1M BLOCKSIZE 8K;


5) Make Your 'TEMP' Tablespace the Default Temporary Tablespace Again
SQL> ALTER DATABASE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp;

Database altered.


6) Drop Your 'TEMPX' Tablespace Now That It Is Not Needed
SQL> DROP TABLESPACE tempx INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES;

Tablespace dropped.

RUN SQL Statements


ALTER SYSTEM SET user_dump_dest=;


ALTER SYSTEM SET timed_statistics=FALSE;


ALTER SESSION SET sql_trace =FALSE;


N.B : ORADBA ACCESS/ALTER SYSTEM Privelege Required for ALTER SYSTEM

trace will have spid in file name, from sid of session can get spid from v$process

tkprof filename.trc filename.txt sys=no explain=username/password

or

tkprof filename.trc output_filename.out sys=no explain=apps/password
sort='(prsela,exeela,fchela)'

The above mentioned command sorts the SQL by placing the worst performing
SQL statement at the top of the output file


USING AUTOTRACE
SET AUTOT ON -- Runs the SQL and gives the execution plan and statistics

SET AUTOT TRACE -- Runs the SQL but does not show the result and gives the execution plan and statistics

SET AUTOT TRACE EXP -- Only gives the execution plan without running the Query

SET AUTOT OFF -- Switching off Autotrace facility


To get trace file from a concurrent request id :
select oracle_process_id from fnd_concurrent_requests where request_id=38156196;

ORACLE_PROCESS_ID
------------------------------


trace file name will have oracle process id in its name


Create a TraceAnalyzer File
A trace file is a raw set of data produced by the Oracle Database.
TraceAnalyzer reformats the raw data so that it is easier to review. It is
a more powerful tool than TKPROF. It translates things like bind
variables and make them easy to find.
a. Download TraceAnalyzer from Note.224270.1
b. Install trace analyzer in SQL: @TRCACREA.sql;
c. Retrieve the trace file.
d. In SQL*Plus, issue a command like the following to create a TraceAnalyzer
version of the trace file: @TRCANLZR.sql UDUMP vis015_ora_22854.trc

Form

Form Trace:
To turn
trace on at the form level, go to the toolbar and navigate to
HELP -> TOOLS -> TRACE. By clicking on the word trace, a checkmark will appear
next to it, indicating that trace has been turned on. Reproduce the problem.
Navigate to HELP -> TOOLS -> TRACE, and click on the word trace to uncheck
trace and turn it off.


How will you take the forms trace?
http://hostname:port/dev60cgi/f60cgi?play=&record=collect&log=filename

Loging into forms directly
You should able to start application services without any error. If you are able to start application services without any error but still you are not able to login then you should check direct forms login.

For Release 11i : http://:/dev60cgi/f60cgi
For Release 12: http://:/forms/frmservlet
For direct forms logging, below parameter in CONTEXT file should be set to OFF. If it is not set to OFF then make below changes and run autoconfig.

OFF

Once you are able to login in forms mentioned in step 4 but still personal home page login is not working then you can confirm that issue is now with personel home page login only and no issue with APPS password.

Run AOL/J Test. Use below URL to run AOL/J Test:
http://:/OA_HTML/jsp/fnd/aoljtest.jsp


To set up forms loadbalancing:
What settings are required in each node's xml files?

s_methost
s_leastloadedhost

Are there any other variables that need to be set?

RESEARCH
=========
(Note: This is INTERNAL ONLY research. No action should be taken by the customer on this information.
This is research only, and may NOT be applicable to your specific situation.)

Note 217368.1 Advanced Configurations and Topologies for Enterprise Deployments of E-Business Suite 11i
----> Option 2.4. Forms Server / Metrics Layer Load Balancing
------>Option 2.4.2. When using Forms Metric Server


ANSWER
=======

Please note that you need to run autoconfig after each step as given in the Note.

I. On each Web server node, run the AutoConfig Context Editor and set the following.

1. update the .xml file value
Forms Server FND_TOP context value (s_formsfndtop in $APPL_TOP/admin/.xml) to the location of FND_TOP on the Forms Server nodes.

If you have multiple Forms Server nodes, they must all have the same directory structure.

2.set the Metrics Server Load Balancing Host context value (s_leastloadedhost in $
APPL_TOP/admin/.xml) to %LeastLoadedHost%

3.Metrics Server Error URL context value (s_meterrorurl in $APPL_TOP/admin/.xml) to your default Metrics Se
rver error page, if any


II. On all Forms Metrics Client Nodes, run the AutoConfig Context Editor and set the following.

set the Metrics Server Host context value (s_methost in $APPL_TOP/admin/.xml) to the hostname that runs the Pri
mary Forms Metrics Server Process.

For example, if the Primary Forms Metrics Server Process is running on host "formsmetrics.oracle.com", then Metrics Server
Host = formsmetrics.oracle.com


TO DISABLE:
===========
Option 2.4.3. Disabling Forms Metric ServerIf you have multiple Forms Server nodes in your configuration and you use the Primary Forms Metrics Server Process and Forms Metrics

Clients to do Forms Load Balancing, and wish to disable this functionality perform the following steps.

On all Forms Metrics Client Nodes, run the AutoConfig Context Editor .
In the Context Detail screen, set the Metrics Server Load Balancing Host context value (s_leastloadedhost in $APPL_TOP/admin/.xml) to the value of "%s_hostname%" context

variable:

Metrics Server Load Balancing Host = myserver
[ where "myserver" is the name of this host and value of %s_hostname%. ]

Save your changes.
Generate new configuration files by running AutoConfig as described in MetaLink Note 165195.

Tablespace, datafiles, tables, index related scripts

The following is the query to find the total space, used space and free space for TEMP tablespace.
SELECT TABLESPACE_NAME "Tablespace", (TOTAL_BLOCKS * 8192) "Total Size", (USED_BLOCKS * 8192 ) "Used" ,(FREE_BLOCKS * 8192) "Free" , (MAX_USED_BLOCKS * 8192 ) "Max Used" FROM V$SORT_SEGMENT;



To find temporary tablespace usage query
"SELECT s.sid ""SID"",s.username ""User"",s.program ""Program"", u.tablespace ""Tablespace"",
u.contents ""Contents"", u.extents ""Extents"", u.blocks*8/1024 ""Used Space in MB"", q.sql_text ""SQL TEXT"",

WHERE s.saddr=u.session_addr
and s.sql_address=q.address
and s.sid=a.sid
and u.tablespace=k.tablespace_name;

To find free space,alloated space in TEMP tablespace
select TABLESPACE_NAME, BYTES_USED/1024/1024,BYTES_FREE/1024/1024 from v$temp_space_header;

or
alter database tempfile '/ge2vis/oradata/data01/temp01.dbf' resize 2000m ;

How can one see who is using a temporary segment?
For every user using temporary space, there is an entry in SYS.V$_LOCK with type 'TS'.
All temporary segments are named 'ffff.bbbb' where 'ffff' is the file it is in and 'bbbb' is first block of the segment.

If your temporary tablespace is set to TEMPORARY, all sorts are done in one large temporary segment. For usage stats, see SYS.V_$SORT_SEGMENT

From Oracle 8.0, one can just query SYS.v$sort_usage. Look at these examples:
select s.username, u."USER", u.tablespace, u.contents, u.extents, u.blocks
from sys.v_$session s, sys.v_$sort_usage u
where s.saddr = u.session_addr
/

select s.osuser, s.process, s.username, s.serial#,
sum(u.blocks)*vp.value/1024 sort_size
from sys.v_$session s, sys.v_$sort_usage u, sys.v_$parameter vp
where s.saddr = u.session_addr
and vp.name = 'db_block_size'
and s.osuser like '&1'
group by s.osuser, s.process, s.username, s.serial#, vp.value
/

How would you check if the tablespace is in backup mode ?- Check in v$backup

To find free space , available space and % of used space in a tablespace use
SELECT tba, free_spc, avail_spc, free_spc/avail_spc "free %"
FROM
( SELECT tablespace_name TBA,
SUM ( bytes ) free_spc

WHERE TBB=TBA(+) AND free_spc/avail_spc <.2 ;

To check which all tablespaces are less than 15 % free etc
select d1.tablespaces_name , sum(d2.bytes)/sum(d1.bytes) “free”
from dba_data_files d1, dba_free_space d2
where d1.tablespace_name=d2.tablespace_name

Statspack

To implement statspack:

alter session set tracefile_identifier=
Note ids 149124.1, 149121.1 , 149113.1
Steps for installing statspack:
1) Bring down application services
2) Check for invalid objects
3) Log on as sysdba (sqlplus "/ as sysdba")
4) Run the following script:
@ $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/sprecreate.sql
Provide the perfstat user password (keep it same as username) and the default tablespace (PERFSTAT - already created) and temporary tablespace (TEMP) when prompted.
5) Check the spcreate.lis file to if there are any errors
6) Check to see if there any more invalids than there were before installing. If there are then recompille the invlaid objects.
7) Log on as the perfstat user
8) Execute the following package:
SQL> exec statspack.snap();
9) Make sure the package completes without errors.
10) Bring the application services back up

How to install statspack
Shut down Applications
Create the PERFSTAT tablespace ( Ensure perfstat user’s default tablespace is set to this tablespace during install)
Install the statspack utility
Verify Install
bring up the Application Services
The detailed level steps for statspack install is below:
SQL> CREATE TABLESPACE perfstat
DATAFILE '/d05/oracle/visdata/perfstat02.dbf' SIZE 500M
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 512K max size 4096m
SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
PERMANENT
ONLINE;
Install Statspack. At the prompt specify PERFSTAT password. Keep it same as username. Also give
default tablespace as perfstat tablespace and temporary tablespace as TEMP.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/spcreate.sql
Verfiy its been installed properly
SQL> connect perfstat/perfstat
SQL> exec statspack.snap(i_snap_level=>10);


steps for dropping perfstat user and tablespace:

DROP the PERFSTAT USER by running the following sql from the DATABASE ORACLE HOME
sqlplus '/as sysdba';
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/spdrop.sql

2.drop package body SYS.STATSPACK_EXT_NEW;

3.drop trigger SYS.LOG_ERRORS_TRIG;

4.DROP TABLESPACE PERF_EXT including contents and datafiles;

–WHERE column_name LIKE ‘%’


SELECT table_name, column_name
FROM all_tab_columns
WHERE column_name LIKE ‘APPLICATION%SYSTEM%NAME%’;

and output was

TABLE_NAME                     COLUMN_NAME
—————————— ——————————
AD_APPL_TOPS                   APPLICATIONS_SYSTEM_NAME
FND_PRODUCT_GROUPS             APPLICATIONS_SYSTEM_NAME
BIN$TQikJhLucVHgRAADuqIcxA==%content APPLICATIONS_SYSTEM_NAME

APPLICATIONS_SYSTEM_NAME in FND_PRODUCT_GROUPS was pointing to source instance where as it should be same as SID.

Fix was simply to update table FND_PRODUCT_GROUPS like

Backup existing table as
SQL>create table FND_PRODUCT_GROUPS_BAK as select * from FND_PRODUCT_GROUPS;

Update table with target name
SQL> update FND_PRODUCT_GROUPS
set APPLICATIONS_SYSTEM_NAME = ‘’ ;
commit;


Legal statement on login page is not apprearing correctly.

1) Login to VIS Apps servers and navigate to the $OA_HTML directory
2) Make a copy of the AppsLocalLogin.jsp file
3) Open the AppsLocalLogin.jsp in vi
4) search for the keyword "legal". You should see the following line

StyledTextBean legalMessage = new StyledTextBean();

5) Replace the word "StyledTextBean" with "RawTextBean"
6) Please note that the replace needs to made to 2 places on the same line
7) Stop the Apache

Steps for dropping and creating undo tablespace:

Comment out the undo setting in the init.ora. Shutdown the database normal and startup. Drop the UNDO tablespace, remove the UNDO datafiles and recreate with five datafilies with initial size of 2048M for a total of 10GB. Uncomment the undo parameters and restart the instance.

su - opreprod
sqlplus '/as sysdba';

set lines 1000
column file_name format a50
set pages 100

1.select FILE_NAME,TABLESPACE_NAME from dba_data_files where tablespace_name like 'APPS_UNDOTS1';

2. Create a new undo tablespace:

create undo tablespace second_undo datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/s_undo01.dbf' size 100M autoextend on maxsize 2000M;

3. Make this tablespace default undo tablespace:

alter system set undo_tablespace= second_undo;

4. Drop the old undo tablespace which came from production:

drop tablespace APPS_UNDOTS1 including contents and datafiles;

(check whether all the datafiles that are returned by select statement in step 1 are deleted from their respective locations, if not delete them manually)

5.Recreate the tablespace APPS_UNDOTS1 with required space.

create undo tablespace APPS_UNDOTS1 datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/undo01.dbf' size 500M autoextend on maxsize 8000M;

ALTER TABLESPACE APPS_UNDOTS1 ADD datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/undo02.dbf' size 500M autoextend on maxsize 8000M;

ALTER TABLESPACE APPS_UNDOTS1 ADD datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/undo03.dbf' size 500M autoextend on maxsize 8000M;

ALTER TABLESPACE APPS_UNDOTS1 ADD datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/undo04.dbf' size 500M autoextend on maxsize 8000M;

ALTER TABLESPACE APPS_UNDOTS1 ADD datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/undo05.dbf' size 500M autoextend on maxsize 8000M;

ALTER TABLESPACE APPS_UNDOTS1 ADD datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/undo06.dbf' size 500M autoextend on maxsize 8000M;

ALTER TABLESPACE APPS_UNDOTS1 ADD datafile '/d03/opreprod/preproddata/undo07.dbf' size 500M autoextend on maxsize 8000M;

6. make APPS_UNDOTS1 undo tablespace a default one:

alter system set undo_tablespace= APPS_UNDOTS1;

7. drop ‘second_undo’ undo tablespace:

drop tablespace second_undo including contents and datafiles;

Procedure to drop and recreate log files

Perform following DDL/DCL commands after loging to database with OS command sqlplus "/ as sysdba".

ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 6 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo06a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 7 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo07a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 8 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo08a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 9 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo09a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 10 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo10a.dbf') SIZE 150m;

reapeat "alter system switch logfile;" command till CURRENT log switch reaches group 6 or 7 or 8
or 9 or 10 and old redo log group members 1-5 reaches in INACTIVE status (not in CURRENT or ACTIVE status)

alter system switch logfile;

set lines 200
select * from v$log;

The status should be something like this

GROUP# THREAD# SEQUENCE# BYTES MEMBERS ARC STATUS FIRST_CHANGE# FIRST_TIM
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --- ---------------- ------------- ---------
1 1 ..... 15728640 1 YES INACTIVE 1.9618E+12 04-AUG-08

10 1 ..... 157286400 1 YES CURRENT 1.9618E+12 04-AUG-08


if redo log group 1 to 5 are INACTIVE drop them, make surw ecorresponding OS file is removed from relevant
directory too and then recreate dropped groups back (A GROUP HAS TO BE DROPPED WHEN IT INACTIVE)

...check group 1 is INACTIVE the drop it
ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE GROUP 1;

...check group 2 is INACTIVE the drop it
ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE GROUP 2;

...check group 3 is INACTIVE the drop it
ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE GROUP 3;

...check group 4 is INACTIVE the drop it
ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE GROUP 4;

...check group 5 is INACTIVE the drop it
ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE GROUP 5;

After dropping an online redo log group, make sure that the drop completed successfully, and then use
the appropriate operating system command to delete the dropped online redo log files.

rm -f /orafiles/vis/redo/redo01a.dbf
rm -f /orafiles/vis/redo/redo02a.dbf
rm -f /orafiles/vis/redo/redo03a.dbf
rm -f /orafiles/vis/redo/redo04a.dbf
rm -f /orafiles/vis/redo/redo05a.dbf

The add them again with redo log memeber size 150M

ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 1 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo01a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 2 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo02a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 3 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo03a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 4 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo04a.dbf') SIZE 150m;
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE GROUP 5 ('/orafiles/vis/redo/redo05a.dbf') SIZE 150m;

The final status should be somthing like this...
set lines 200
select * from v$log;

The status should be something like this

RAC

For Oracle RAC installations:
a. Start the database as follows, where db_name is the database name:

$ srvctl start database -d db_name


To stop and start 10g rac database (10g crs )
Database:
server1: login as oraprod
srvctl stop database -d PROD
lsnrctl stop LISTENER_server1

server2: login as oraprod
lsnrctl stop LISTENER_server2

server3: login as oraprod
lsnrctl stop LISTENER_server3

CRS:

server1, server2, server3: login as root
/d02/oracrs/prodcrs/10.2.0/bin/crsctl stop crs

-Repeat above steps on all servers indicated above

start procedure
CRS:

server1, server2, server3: login as root
/d02/oracrs/prodcrs/10.2.0/bin/crsctl start crs

-Repeat above steps on all servers indicated above


Database:

server1: login as oraprod
---> DO NOT START MANUALLY, CRS SHOULD START IT UP AUTOMATICALLY.
---> IF CRS FAILS TO STARTUP THE DB, EXECUTE: srvctl start database -d PROD
lsnrctl start LISTENER_server1

server2: login as oraprod
lsnrctl start LISTENER_server2

server3: login as oraprod
lsnrctl start LISTENER_server3

crs commands
crs_stat -t :Show HA resource status (hard to read)
crsstat :Ouptut of crs_stat –t formatted better
ps -ef|grep d.bin :crsd.bin evmd.bin ocssd.bin
crsctl check crs :css, crs, evm appear healthy
crsctl stop crs :Stop crs and all other services
crsctl disable crs :Prevent crs from starting on reboot
crsctl enable crs :Enable crs start on reboot
crs_stop -all :Stop everything
crs_start -all :Start everything

Go to following location and check the current CRS version.
cd /CRS/app/10.2.0/bin
./crsctl query crs softwareversion
./crsctl query crs activeversion



To configure AutoConfig to generate the failover aliases
To generate the failover aliases use the database tier context variable s_alt_service_instances.
Specify a comma separated list of "servicename:instance" to use connect time failover management.

For example 'SERVICE_NAME:INSTANCE_NAME1,SERVICE_NAME:INSTANCE_NAME2' will generate a TNS Alias in the tnsnames.ora file that fails over to INSTANCE_NAME1 when the current instance is not available. If INSTANCE_NAME1 is not available it fails over to INSTANCE_NAME2.

So Update the context variable s_alt_service_instances in the database tier context file applying the failover rules as described above.
Run AutoConfig on all database tiers.
Run AutoConfig on all application tiers.
These steps will generate tns aliases _FO with description lists as configured in s_alt_service_instances. These aliases will still not be used anywhere. Have to set the two task variables like s_tool_twotask to actually use these aliases.

Note: On database versions that are 8.1.7.4 or higher the generated alias _FO can only be used for failover. On 8.0.6 the generated alias can't be used for failover. However, it can be used for load balancing.

Check out current configuration information:
srvctl config database
Displays the configuration information of the cluster database.

srvctl config service
Displays the configuration information for the services.

srvctl config nodeapps
Displays the configuration information for the node applications.

srvctl config asm
Displays the configuration for the ASM instances on the node.

To look for all the registered services for a database:
srvctl config service -d DBATOOLS

To get VIP information:
srvctl config nodeapps -n xxxx708 -a

VIP exists.: /xxxx708-vip/xx.xxx.xx.xx/xxx.xxx.xxx.0/eth4

or

ifconfig -a

Look for interface with two IPs
When node 1 comes back up, it will start it’s CRS stack. It will take back
it’s VIP. In order to fail the service back, you would need to run
srvctl relocate
The following example is relocating the service from node 2 back to node 1:

srvctl relocate service -d V10SN -s SRV_AVAIL -i V10SN2 -t V10SN1

To Forcefully remove a database from the OCR

srvctl remove database with -f (force option):
Then use belwo to add again
srvctl add database -d DB -o $­ORACLE_HOME

Gather statistics for SYS schema and dictionary tables
Use SQL*Plus to connect to the database as sysdba and gather the statistics for the SYS schema using the following commands:

SQL> execute dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats
('SYS',cascade=>TRUE,degree=>20);

"As of Oracle Database 10g Release 10.1, Oracle recommends that you use the
$ sqlplus '/as sysdba'
SQL> EXEC DBMS_STATS.GATHER_DICTIONARY_STATS;



For Oracle8i and Oracle9i, use the DBMS_STATS.GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS procedure to gather statistics.
Backup the existing statistics as follows:

$ sqlplus '/as sysdba'
SQL>spool sdict

SQL>grant analyze any to sys;

SQL>exec dbms_stats.create_stat_table('SYS','dictstattab');

SQL>spool off
This data is useful if you want to revert back the statistics

For example, the following PL/SQL subprograms import the statistics for the SYS schema after deleting the existing statistics:

exec dbms_stats.delete_schema_stats('SYS');
exec dbms_stats.import_schema_stats('SYS','dictstattab');

To gather statistics run this script, connect to the database AS SYSDBA using SQL*Plus.
$ sqlplus '/as sysdba'

RMAN

Change the database ID
If RMAN is going to be used to back-up the database, the database ID must be changed. If RMAN isn't going to be used, there is no harm in changing the ID anyway - and it's a good practice to do so.

From sqlplus:

shutdown immediate
startup mount
exit
From unix:

nid target=/
NID will ask if you want to change the ID. Respond with 'Y'. Once it has finished, start the database up again in sqlplus:

shutdown immediate
startup mount
alter database open resetlogs
/

Purge WF_NOTIFICATION_OUT queue
cd $FND_TOP/patch/115/sql
sqlplus apps/ @wfntfqup.sql APPS (appspwd) APPLSYS
e.g sqlplus apps/apps @wfntfqup.sql APPS apps APPLSYS

This purges the WF_NOTIFICATION_OUT queue and rebuilds it with data currently in the WF_NOTIFICATIONS table. This is what purges all notifications
waiting in the queue to be sent. It will then populate the queue with the current data in the WF_NOTIFICATIONS table.
Only notifications with mail_status = 'MAIL' and status = 'OPEN' will be re-enqueued in the WF_NOTIFICATION_OUT queue and sent by the mailer.

Here are steps/events for Oracle Workflow Notification Outbound Processing(eMail from Oracle Applications Workflow to Users)

1.When workflow Engine determines that a notification message must be sent, it raises an event in BES (Business Event System) oracle.apps.wf.notifications.send
Event is raised with Notification ID (NID) as event key
2. There is seeded subscription to this Event
3. Event is placed on WF_DEFERRED agent
4.Event is dequeued from WF_DEFERRED and subscription is processed
5. Subscription places event message to WF_NOTIFICATION_OUT agent.
6.Notification Mailer dequeues message from WF_NOTIFICATION_OUT agent and
6.1convert XML representation of notification into MIME encoded message (Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions) and
6.2 Send message by SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) to intended user (If Test Address/Override Address is set then email is sent to Test Address

E-Mail Notification is sent if all below conditions are true
a) Notification status is OPEN or CANCELED and
b) Notification mail_status is MAIL or INVALID and
c) Recipient Role has a valid e-mail address and Notification Preference is in the format MAIL%
d) Workflow Deferred Agent Listener is running
e) Workflow Notification Mailer is running

To check a) & b) run below query
SELECT status, mail_status FROM wf_notifications WHERE notification_id = ‘&NID’;

mail_status >> SENT means mail has gone out of mailer to user

To check c) run below query
SELECT email_address, nvl(WF_PREF.get_pref(name, ‘MAILTYPE’),notification_preference)
FROM wf_roles
WHERE name = upper(’&recipient_role’);

To check d) & e) Use OAM (Oracle Application Manager)


Workflow version embedded in 11i
************************
Run following SQL from apps user ;
SQL>select TEXT from WF_RESOURCES where NAME='WF_VERSION';

You should see output like
TEXT
-----------------------
2.6.0
Which means you are on Workflow Version 2.6.0

You can also use script wfver.sql in FND_TOP/sql to find version of workflow in Apps.

To Configure Workflow Notification Mailer need below information

PARAMETER_NAME VALUE
------------------------------ ------------------------------
Inbound Server Name wfmailer.abc.com
Username wftst
Password oracle
Outbound Server Name wfmailer.abc.com
Reply-to Address wftst@abc.com


Taking a backup of the workflow configuration
cd $HOME/
sqlplus “/ as sysdba”
spool wf_mailer.log
set lines 130
set pages 200
col value format a30
select p.parameter_id,p.parameter_name,v.parameter_value value
from apps.fnd_svc_comp_param_vals_v v,
apps.fnd_svc_comp_params_b p,
apps.fnd_svc_components c
where c.component_type = 'WF_MAILER'
and v.component_id = c.component_id
and v.parameter_id = p.parameter_id
and p.parameter_name in
('OUTBOUND_SERVER', 'INBOUND_SERVER',
'ACCOUNT', 'FROM', 'NODENAME', 'REPLYTO','DISCARD' ,'PROCESS','INBOX')
order by p.parameter_name;


To schdule Gather schema stats and purge workflow runtime data

Login into application as sysadmin and schedule below Requests.
Gather Schema Statistics (ALL , 20% , degree 6 ) to run every SUN and WED
Workflow Background Process to run every 10 mts and Apply the interval as :From the completion of the prior run
Purge Obsolete Workflow Runtime data - Every week
Workflow Control Queue Cleanup - Every 12 hours


To update WF notification status
IMPORTANT STEP ! Connect to SQL*PLUS as APPS user and do the following steps
update applsys.wf_notifications
set status ='CLOSED', mail_status ='SENT', end_date ='01-JAN-01'
where mail_status='MAIL';
update wf_notifications set status=’CLOSED’;
commit;"
Select distinct status from wf_notification" this should return only one value CLOSED.
or simple do
update wf_notifications set status = 'CLOSED', mail_status = 'SENT';
commit;


Update workflow a/c pwd from backend
set define off
update APPLSYS.FND_SVC_COMP_PARAM_VALS set PARAMETER_VALUE= '_@#0@##^90@#!4^86#!$^68$#9$4#@@$6!!!9#0@`$B9+}*0&9&@0&8#|'
where
PARAMETER_ID=
( select parameter_id from APPLSYS.FND_SVC_COMP_PARAMS_B where parameter_name = 'INBOUND_PASSWORD');

To check WF mail status
select count(*), mail_status
from wf_notifications
where begin_date > sysdate - 1
group by mail_status;

There are 141 messages with status `MAIL¿, this status should remain very short and then progress to status `SENT¿.
: OAM Login > Site Map > Workflow > Service Components.
These same detail are also given in the output from script $FND_TOP/sql/wfver.sql


To check the WF status from backend

check the status of Agent Listeners:

set pagesize 400
set linesize 120
set pagesize 50
column COMPONENT_NAME format a45
column STARTUP_MODE format a15
column COMPONENT_STATUS format a15
select fsc.COMPONENT_NAME,fsc.STARTUP_MODE,fsc.COMPONENT_STATUS
from APPS.FND_CONCURRENT_QUEUES_VL fcq, fnd_svc_components fsc
where fsc.concurrent_queue_id = fcq.concurrent_queue_id(+)
order by COMPONENT_STATUS , STARTUP_MODE , COMPONENT_NAME;


Typical output from this

Steps to start/stop notification mailer

1.a Check workflow mailer service current status
sqlplus apps/

select running_processes
from fnd_concurrent_queues
where concurrent_queue_name = 'WFMLRSVC';

Number of running processes should be greater than 0

1.b Find current mailer status
sqlplus apps/

select component_status
from fnd_svc_components
where component_id =
(select component_id
from fnd_svc_components
where component_name = 'Workflow Notification Mailer');

Possible values:
RUNNING
STARTING
STOPPED_ERROR
DEACTIVATED_USER
DEACTIVATED_SYSTEM

2. Stop notification mailer
sqlplus apps/

declare
p_retcode number;
p_errbuf varchar2(100);
m_mailerid fnd_svc_components.component_id%TYPE;
begin
-- Find mailer Id
-----------------
select component_id
into m_mailerid
from fnd_svc_components
where component_name = 'Workflow Notification Mailer';
--------------
-- Stop Mailer
--------------
fnd_svc_component.stop_component(m_mailerid, p_retcode, p_errbuf);
commit;
end;
/

3. Start notification mailer
sqlplus apps/

declare
p_retcode number;
p_errbuf varchar2(100);
m_mailerid fnd_svc_components.component_id%TYPE;

Run the following command to locate the properties file that you want to customize to preserve your settings:
R11i10

sh $AD_TOP/bin/adtmplreport.sh contextfile=$CONTEXT_FILE target=$IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/etc/xmlsvcs.properties

R12

sh $AD_TOP/bin/adtmplreport.sh contextfile=$CONTEXT_FILE target=$INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/oafm/config/oc4j.properties


Navigate to the location of the template directory and create a custom subdirectory to store to store your customization:

cd $FND_TOP/admin/template

mkdir custom

Copy the template file to the custom directory. and edit to add custom entries and run autoconfig"

What is staging area ?
Staging Area is special directory structure where you can dump 11i installation software so that you don’t have to insert CD’s during install and these disks will automatically be picked by Installer.
Q. How you set up staging area ?
Use adautostg.pl to create staging area orcreate required directory manually for staging like (following directories under Stage11i - startCD, oraApps, oraDB, oraiAS, oraAppsDB, oraNLS and inside these directories Disk1, Disk2…).

How to compile JSP in Oracle Apps ?
You can use ojspCompile.pl perl script shipped with Oracle apps to compile JSP files. This script is under $JTF_TOP/admin/scripts. Sample compilation method is
perl ojspCompile.pl --compile --quiet

compiling few jsp's
Clear the following files from $OA_HTML/../_pages/_oa__html
rm _qot*.*
rm _xx*.*
ojspCompile.pl --compile -s '%qot%.jsp' -log $HOME/err.log --flush
ojspCompile.pl --compile -s '%xxdhr%.jsp' -log $HOME/err.log –flush
Confirm _qot*.* and _xx*.* files exist (after running the above Perl script)

How to find JDBC thin driver that your iAS 1.0.2.2.2 is using ?
A simple java program & procedure to compile it that will give your jdbc thin driver version.
Create a file with name JDBCVersion.java in your middle tier (Application Tier)
---------
import java.sql.*;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
class JDBCVersion
{
public static void main (String args[])
throws SQLException
{
// Load the Oracle JDBC driver
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
// Get a connection to a database
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection
("jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=YES)(FAILOVER=YES) (ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST= ) (PORT= )))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=)))" ,"apps","");
// Create Oracle DatabaseMetaData object
DatabaseMetaData meta = conn.getMetaData();
// gets driver info:
System.out.println("JDBC driver version is " + meta.getDriverVersion());
}
}
-----------
Replace following parameters
1. with your database hostname or IP address
2. with your database port no.
3. with SID for your database
4. with your apps password
After changing save it with name JDBCVersion.java in your middle tier & execute command
javac JDBCVersion.java
This will create class file in your workign directory. Include your current directory into your classpath like
export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/
then execute
java JDBCVersion
you should see output like
JDBC driver version is 9.2.0.6.0
Which means you are using jdbc thin driver version 9.2.0.6.0.


How to check if Apps 11i System is Autoconfig enabled ?
Under $AD_TOP/bin check for file adcfginfo.sh & if this exists use

# AutoConfig automatically generates this file. It will be read and .......


Context Editor
Application /util/editcontext/
Database /appsutil/editcontext/
"To run the Context Editor:
On UNIX
editcontext
If the [COMMON_TOP]/util/editcontext (for Unix) or [COMMON_TOP]\util\editcontext (for Windows) directory does not
exist, please refer to MetaLink Note 165195.1 titled ""Using AutoConfig to Manage System Configurations with Oracle
Applications 11i"".
Copy the Context Editor meta data file adctxinf.tmp to the common top directory under util/editcontext/etc and rename
it as adctxinf.xml:
on UNIX:
cp $AD_TOP/admin/template/adctxinf.tmp [COMMON_TOP]/util/editcontext/etc/adctxinf.xml

EDITING CONTEXT FILE
Editing Context file(xml file) in Oracle apps R12 using Context editor.
It is a mandatory thing that you should not edit the context file or xml file manually .
Context editor should be used for this(This can be used for updating ports or to change any configuration)
of application Tier or database tier.
follow these steps to install context editor in your existing oracle apps R12 system.
Apply patch 2873456 from metalink
after applying you will not be able to invoke the editcontext executable and you will get a error. this is because jre 1.1.8 which is
supplied along with this patch is no longer supported.
So download jre1.5.0_10 from sun.java.com and unpack it inside the path editcontext/jre/Linux/
and rename the old 1.1.8 jre inside that
then go to the bin directory inside the editcontext directory
open the file runWizard.sh
and accordingly replace the jre directory and also replace the jre executable with java in the same file ..
and invoke it from
$RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME/appsutil for editing database context(xml) file.
$COMMON_TOP/util for editing Application context(xml) file.
Syntax is
./editcontext
Before editing shutdown the application tier and after editing run autoconfig.sh to update the configuration files to reflect the new value.

The URL for ext web node is
JTF Login Page for customers using CRM (Check for each MT using real host names).
http://:port/OA_HTML/jtflogin.jsp

start Apache in SSL mode as root (on web025) using following cmd:

. //APPSORA.env

$IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin/httpdsctl startssl.

URL to access OAM
access http://.:/servlets/weboam/oam/oamlogin


How will you identify if you are using Forms in Socket or Servlet mode in Oracle Applications 11i or R12 ?

You can find out the form are in Socket or Servlet mode in form configuration file it is in $COMMON_TOP/html/bin and the file name is “appsweb_SID_hostname.cfg”.

s_forms_servlet_serverurl If value is blank that means this is not servlet else if value is “/forms/formservlet” this indicates forms servlet.

In the context file, unde OA variable, ‘frmConnectMode’

Edit the AutoConfig context file.
If you are currently using E-Business Suite level 11.5.9 or above, or have applied FND.G patchset (or above), you will use Oracle Applications Manager to edit your context file. For all previous versions, you will use the AutoConfig Context Editor tool.
To edit the context file using Oracle Applications Manager, login to Oracle Applications Manager and navigate to Site Map > AutoConfig > Edit Parameters.
To edit the context file using the AutoConfig Context Editor tool, enter the following commands:

% cd [COMMON_TOP]/util/editcontext/
% ./editcontext"

Procedure to Shutdown Dispatcher

mwactl.sh -login sysadmin/xxx stop_force 10240

nohup mwactl.sh stop_dispatcher &

1. Autoconfig. In autoconfig-enbled environment configuration file mwa.cfg is written by autoconfig. So it would be good to modify any configuration setting that you want to be permanent via AutoConfig editor in OAM. For all MWA server configuration variables OA_VAR begins from s_mwa. There is also a description for each parameter.
2. R12. While in 11i mwa.cfg is located in $MWA_TOP/secure, in R12 it’s in $INST_TOP/admin/install. Startup script mwactl.sh in R12 is located in $INST_TOP/admin/scripts
3. Dispatcher. If we are going to run multiple servers (specified by mwa.TelnetPortNumber / s_mwaTelnetPortNo) then we most likely will also use dispatcher to load balance client requests between MCSA telnet servers. We use mwa.Dispatcher=host:port to set MCSA dispatcher (in AutoConfig there is s_mwaDispatcherPort for the port setting). To start|stop dispatcher we can use:
mwactl.sh start_dispatcher | stop dispatcher.
Dispatcher is MWADIS binary within $MWA_TOP/bin directory. We can check whether it’s running using:
ps -ef | grep MWADIS
4. OAM. There are Generic Services (MWA MSCA Telnet Server & MWA MSCA Telnet Dispatchers) in OAM that corresponds to MSCA telnet server & dispatcher respectively and can be used to start/stop them automatically.
5. Server shutdown. When we use
mwactl.sh -login / stop [port]
- it’s so called graceful shutdown. MCSA Telnet Server won’t stop unless there are no clients currently using it. If you need to force shutdown, use stop_force instead of stop
6. Tracing. Setting mwa.LogLevel could be very useful for trobleshooting issues with MWA In 11.5.10/R12 this will usually produce serveral files within MWA log directory:
.system.log
.INV.log
.WMS.log (optionally)
But for performance tuning we can also use SQL tracing. It can be enabled by setting mwa.LogLevel (s_mwaLogLevel) to performance. SQL trace file will be put into usual user_dump_dest directory on database server.

The steps that needs to be done to disable MWA are as follows:
1. Modify the $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/etc/mobile.properties file by commenting out the following line:

The AutoConfig check utility

   The AutoConfig check utility is located at Target Database Tier /appsutil/bin
i) Check the AutoConfig configuration files by executing the following command
adchkcfg.sh contextfile=.xml  appspass= – This report provides information about All the profile options that get changed during the next normal execution of AutoConfig.
– For every profile option there is information about the current value in the database, the changed value and the AutoConfig script that changes the profile option.
– The script will also create a zip file report “ADXcfgcheck.zip” that contains all the files and reports mentioned above, so that you can copy the ADXcfgcheck.zip to a local desktop PC and view the html report from there without breaking the hyper-links in the report.

How to change all Applications user passwords
In apps, there are times when we want to force all the application users to change their passwords. In apps 11i, we have a concurrent request under System Administrator->

CP SQL*Plus Expire FND_USER Passwords

This concurrent request basically sets the fnd_user.password_date to null for all apps users. The users are thus prompted to change their passwords on next login


Responsibility attached to a users
SELECT UNIQUE u.user_id, SUBSTR (u.user_name, 1, 30) user_name,
SUBSTR (r.responsibility_name, 1, 60) responsiblity,
SUBSTR (a.application_name, 1, 50) application
FROM fnd_user u,
fnd_user_resp_groups g,
fnd_application_tl a,
fnd_responsibility_tl r
WHERE g.user_id(+) = u.user_id
AND g.responsibility_application_id = a.application_id
AND a.application_id = r.application_id
AND g.responsibility_id = r.responsibility_id
ORDER BY SUBSTR (user_name, 1, 30),
SUBSTR (a.application_name, 1, 50),
SUBSTR (r.responsibility_name, 1, 60);

Query useful when user wants to get application wise responsibility list
SELECT (SELECT application_short_name
FROM fnd_application fa
WHERE fa.application_id = frt.application_id) application,
frt.responsibility_id, frt.responsibility_name
FROM apps.fnd_responsibility_tl frt;

####### Script to create LENOVO User ###################


Using following tables we can get the end-user access details:
APPLSYS.FND_LOGINS
APPLSYS.FND_LOGIN_RESPONSIBILITY
APPLSYS.FND_LOGIN_RESP_FORMS
APPLSYS.FND_UNSUCCESSFUL_LOGINS
FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS
ICX.ICX_FAILURES

Clients requires to restrict duplicate user sessions usually, so in previous project we setted ICX_SESSIONS of DISABLED_FALG=Y to restrict the duplicate session of E-buss suite user. { This can obtain by patch 21228669 }

Requirement:

Client want to secure login policy to more robust for users of 11i.
> The password contains at least one letter and at least one number
> The password does not contain the username
> If user tried more than 3 attempts , password should lock
> If user unable to login more than 2 attempted, need weekly report of those users.

After doing a bit R & D, recommanded for the client the following:

1. Change the profile option " Signon Password Failure limit" to 3, defalt is None.
2. Change the profile option " Signon Password Hard to guess" to YES, defalt is NO.
3. We are sheduling a con.program weekly using the tables FND_UNSUCCESSFUL_LOGINS and ICX.ICX_FAILURES to reports on login attempts.
