From Lisa.Koivu@Fairfieldresorts.com Thu, 05 Jun 2003 00:32:20 -0700 From: "Koivu, Lisa" Date: Thu, 05 Jun 2003 00:32:20 -0700 Subject: FW: Shite of the day Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Oh-My-Gosh. Worry free? I just upgraded another 8.1.7.4 database to 9.2. When I set the COMPATIBLE parm to 9.0.2 (or 9.2, which would make sense) I get really messy errors: ORA-00402: database changes by release 9.0.1.3.0 cannot be used by release 135294976 ORA-01571: redo version 9.0.2.0.0 incompatible with ORACLE version 8.1.7.0.0 So then I tried to set it back to 8.1.7, or comment out COMPATIBLE altogether, and I get the same type of error. It won't open at all. I tried initiating recovery. This database is in noarc mode. It starts looking for arclogs that *do not* exist. I also tried to drop the redo log groups and recreate them. Still, no dice. Again, unbreakable my FUNDAMENT. So has anyone seen this before? I opened a tar yesterday and promptly confused support.

Tired of applying patches? Frustrated with managing mulitple database servers? In the time it takes you to apply all Microsoft's patches to your servers, you can successfully migrate your database to Oracle9i Database and be worry-free. " >From http://www.oracle.com/start/linuxsqlserver/intro.html?src=1764462&Act=16 I don't understand PR of Oracle. The RDBMS has so much properties which are much more better implemented in Oracle than in MS SQL and they choose 'patching' which *** on both servers.
