From the Command Line into the to the Oracle Cloud – the ORACLE-DBCS-CLI Utility
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. Download and Documents The software can be downloaded here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-cloud/public/downloads/index.html The ORACLE-DBCS-CLI documentation starts here: https://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/dbcs_dbaas/CSDBI/GUID-E9F2219D-EBDC-44B3-BE22-BEED6C2BAB74.htm#CSDBI-GUID-E9F2219D-EBDC-44B3-BE22-BEED6C2BAB74 Installation After download…
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…
Read MoreHostname in Oracle Enterprise Linux 7 anpassen – hostnamectl
In Oracle Enterprise Linux 6 konnte man den Hostname beispielsweise mit Tools wie system-config-network oder durch editieren vom /etc/sysconfig/network File anpassen. In der Version 7 kann der Hostname mit dem Tool hostnamectl geändert werden. Ein Editieren vom Network-File funktioniert nicht mehr, der Hostname wird aus dem File /etc/hostname abgeleitet. Auszug aus den Oracle Enterprise Linux 7 Release Notes – https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E53499/html/section-bbw-bzj-4n.html: Nebst hostnamectl gibt es mit Tools für den NetworkManager wie nmtui und nmcli weitere Möglichkeiten, den Hostname anzupassen. Anzeigen vom Hostname mit hostnamectl Neben dem eigentlichen Hostname werden noch Zusatzinformationen der Plattform angezeigt. Das gute alte hostname Kommando funktioniert natürlich weiterhin. [root@bern ~]# hostnamectl Static hostname: bern.martinberger.com Icon name: computer-vm Chassis: vm Machine ID: ce02b4d58dda49e8be5cce2650782d5b Boot ID: c25fd1d532b64fe58296c50e61bd7fa3 Virtualization: vmware Operating System:…
Read MoreOracle 12.1.0.2 und Oracle Linux 7 – keine XFS Unterstützung
Update 03.09.2015 Danke vielmals an Hansjörg welcher den Blogeintrag gelesen und mich darauf hingewiesen hat, dass sich da betreffend XFS was geändert hat. Die My Oracle Support Note Certification Information for Oracle Database on Linux x86-64 (Doc ID 1304727.1) mit dem Aktualisierungsdatum 2. Juli hat neu folgenden Eintrag: XFS – XFS is supported when using OL7 or RHEL 7. Oracle has not tested XFS with earlier versions of OL or RHEL. Ebenfalls wird auch in der My Oracle Support Note Supported and Recommended File Systems on Linux (Doc ID 236826.1) neu XFS als unterstütztes oder sogar empfohlenes Filesystem angegeben: XFS is designed for high scalability and provides near native I/O performance even when the file system spans…
