The Oracle ORACLE-DBCS-CLI utility is a command-line interface tool to manage the lifecycle of your Database as as Service instances in cloud.oracle.com. You can create and delete instances, verify and apply patches, scale your instances up and down and many more. The advantage is that you can work with configuration files. And I like to work with such files, if I need 10 instances with the same shape, I have only to search and replace the instance name – fire! The ORACLE-DBCS-CLI utility is available for Unix platforms at the moment. I have installed ORACLE-DBCS-CLI on a Oracle Linux 6.5, JDK version 1.7 or higher is required.

Oracle Enterprise Manager 13c – Tail your Logfiles
This are my favorite aliases for Enterprise Manager 13c troubleshooting. Just replace $ORACLE_BASE with your own installation directory and add these aliases in your .profile/.bash_profile. Here is the URL to the Oracle documentation: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E63000_01/EMADM/logging.htm#EMADM11796 – and feel free to create your own aliases e.g. for the *.OUT logfiles.

Read MoreDo you need a Mailserver for Testing Purposes? Communigate Pro!
When I am testing Oracle and other software, I want to verify functions like sending alert mails. On Linux systems it’s easy. The most distributions have packages like sendmail already preconfigured and ready to use. But for example on Windows systems, there is no built-in solution. The goal was to have a small virtual machine running as mailserver which can be used for all my test cases. CommuniGate Pro CommuniGate Pro is a groupware which supports a lot of solutions like SMTP, POP3, Webmail and many more. In this post I describe how you can easy install the software and configure the SMTP component in Oracle Enterprise Linux 6. The goal is to use CommuniGate Pro for the Enterprise Manager…
