Today we encountered some performance problems at our customer site. After checking with the customer it seemed that especially the CIFS shares were having problems. At first CIFS was getting slower until the shares were not even accessible anymore. Restarting the CIFS on the filer did solve the problem for a few minutes, but within half an hour the the problems were back again.  Checking

We noticed the MGMT_TABLESPACE in our 12c Grid Control instance was very big. Almost 380gb of data was stored in this tablespace. Because of all the targets registered in this Grid Control instance and the frequent usage of this Grid Control, I did not think anything was wrong. Untill someone looked into this and found out it was a bug in 12c... Note 1502370.1 describes this bug and also the

I was checking Oracle 12c again, because of a beta exam end of october, and noticed something strange. This time I decided to install 12c Grid software first to use the 12c ASM for the 12c database. After installing ASM, I tried to check the disks available in ASM... [oracle@localhost ~]$ . oraenvORACLE_SID = [oracle] ? +ASMThe Oracle base has been set to /opt/oracle[oracle@localhost ~]$

After creating the second pluggable database, next step is to connect to the pluggable databases and cretae a tablespace in one of them. Before connecting, be sure the pluggable databases are listed in the listener.ora.. LISTENER =  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =    (DESCRIPTION =      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))    &nbsp

Last week I downloaded the new Oracle 12c database to check this new feature called 'Plugable database'. Using the runnstaller I fist created the 12c database with the 'Create as container database' option enabled. After installing the database, I dicided to use the dbca to create another plugable database. So, there should be 2 plugable databases and one container database right

From time to time one of out 10g databases (10.2.0.5) seems to 'hang' Our monitoring shows a 'time out' on different checks and when trying to connect using sql, the sql session is hanging. No connection is possible. A few days ago, something like this happened again. Instead of bouncing the database, I decided to look for clues to find out why the database was 'hanging'. The server itself did

Last week I was reading a Oracle eBS R12 Financials Cookbook. This book is written for Oracle functional eBS specialists. The book describes the most important processes in financials, and how to execute those processes. For example, voiding a payment. The book is showing screen prints of how to do this in R12. Not only is the book using screen pints from R12, but also a step by step explanation

I have installe Oracle webcache 10.1.2.3.0 to act as a reverse proxy server for our Oracle eBS environments.

So, I solved my last problem. Deleting the registry entry of NLS_LANG solved the problem. After this, the open database also showed me the NLS error again.
