The "That might come as a surprise to some people, but there's basically

something else or don't patch/upgrade at all."
doesn't cut ice [I think I might have mixed metaphors here] with damagement.
My 8iOPS to 9iRAC upgrade had been in the planning stages for more than a year, never getting the 4 hours downtime requested. Finally, the upgrade was scheduled for 10am to 2pm on a Wednesday. Guess what ? Tuesday night, 9pm I get a call "the Promis system is down, manufacturing is down". Can you come in and quickly upgrade the Oracle database to 9iRAC tonight, like, NOW ? I did do it in 3.5 hours !

Goodday all
We have cutomer who is having a database which should be available
24x7.
Now we can't get even a maintenance time to do the database. We tried
on several occasion but nothing happens.
Now they want us to provide them with a solution to be able to work on
"another database" if we need to do maintenance. Could you guys
come
up with some ideas what we can offer them. Is there any other
alternatives besides replication and standby database.
Currently the system is running as a package in a cluster environment,
HP-UX, so when we go replication route possibilities are that we might
have to forget about high-availabilty cluster environment due to
things like disk space and memory for switching over during failure.
Neither do the standby database a good option in a situation where
you'll needing a longer downtime.
Please help.
Thanx,
Junior DBA

Hi there,
I got a question on log. If my program crashes, can I check some log
to see what
recent transaction is? It will give me a big help on trouble
shooting.
