Bug 17718899 - EXPDP ON STANDARD EDITION ONE SHOWS MESSAGES "OLAP NOT ENABLED"
closed with status 'Not a Bug' with below comment:

OLAP is not available in Standard Edition One (SE1) or Standard Edition (SE) as per the Database Licensing Information document,
it is only available in Enterprise Edition (EE).

This message is intentionally output for DATAPUMP and coded as such in 11.2.0.4 and higher Standard Edition One (SE1) or Standard Edition (SE).

From the Datapump perspective these are warnings and it is safe to ignore them.



NOTE:
The same symptoms can be encountered with the Oracle Enterprise Edition when OLAP is not installed.


SOLUTION
The OLAP related warnings can be safely ignored for DataPump usage.

apps-fnd-01564 oracle error 1653 in summit others

CAUSE:

Typically occurs when writing a new record to oracle database, but there is not enough space to write it. The data file in oracle tablespace called APPS_TS_TX_DATA should be set to AUTOEXTEND. If it is not, Oracle will not auto-increase the size of the datafile, and will raise the above error.

SOLUTION:

If all the reports end in COMPLETE – NORMAL, means its work.

If not than follow below steps.

 Run a Concurrent Manager Recovery

1. Please stop Concurrent managers by adcmctl.sh.

2. If not stopped, please abort managers by adcmctl.sh.

adcmctl.sh abort apps/****

3. Please kill if a process remains.

4. relink all (ADADMIN)

5. Please retry Concurrent Manager Recovery.

Navigate:
Oracle Applications Manager > Concurrent Managers OR Concurrent Requests > Site Map > Diagnostics and Repair > Concurrent Manager Recovery.


OR



SOLUTION:

WARNING: This procedure should be performed by your ORACLE Database Administrator. 
The SYSTEM user should have required privileges to perform this task. 

Enable Autoextend on the APPS_TS_TX_DATA tablespace by executing the following Oracle PL/SQL command:

SQL > ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE '/u01/ORACLE/ORADATA/APPS_TS_TX_DATA.ORA' AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 3072K

ORA-19588: archived log RECID 1003 STAMP 2001986 is no longer valid

Error in RMAN backup log

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03009: failure of backup command on d1 channel at 03/04/2018 23:16:26
ORA-19588: archived log RECID 1003 STAMP 2001986 is no longer valid

Recovery Manager complete.



SOLUTION:

This is not an error but a warning. The reason for this is archive logfile which this process is trying to take backup,
is already been backed up by another process and file is deleted

This error is mostly because of 2 reasons.

1. Either 2 backups like one full backup and one archive log backup are running in parallel.
And if the archivelog backup job tried to take backup of the archives, which were backed up and deleted by the full back
job running at the same time, then this warning will come.

So never schedule two backups at the same time

2. Another reason might be because of few invalid or deleted records in control file.

To clean up invalid records, crosscheck the archive log:



RMAN> CROSSCHECK ARCHIVELOG ALL;

RMAN> DELETE EXPIRED ARCHIVELOG ALL;


It is recommended to use delete input option while backing up archivelog.


RMAN> backup archivelog until time 'sysdate -1' delete input;


If we want to take backup of all archivelogs, then:
——————————————————————

RMAN> backup archivelog all delete input ;

Autoconfig Fails While Running Scripts "afdbprf.sh" and "adcrobj.sh" with 12.1 database

Upgraded database 11.1.0 for 12.1 database having AutoConfig Error

While implement and run AutoConfig form my newly upgraded database 11.1.0, getting the following errors

AutoConfig is exiting with status 2

After checking privileges on $ORACLE_HOME/oracore/zoneinfo, timezone.dat and timezlrg.dat are not present ...

Cause
The multiple timezlrg.* and timezone.* are present so a choice of timezone versions are available.

Solution
To resolve the problem, create links to one of the timezone_nn.dat files. Unless you have a requirement for a specific version, choose the latest ...

[dba@sonu bin]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/oracore/zoneinfo

[dba@sonu zoneinfo]$ ln -s timezone_18.dat timezone.dat
[dba@sonu zoneinfo]$ ln -s timezone_18.dat timezlrg.dat

After the above steps, again initiated the script, and completed successfully.

[dba@sonu bin]$ perl adconfig.pl

Enter the full file path to the Context file: /u01/db/tech_st/12.1.0.2/appsutil/sonu.xml
