Hello all and I apologize not being an ORACLE guy or big UNIX guy.
Scenario
- Solaris 2.7 machine
- ORACLE 7.3.4
- Solaris has 3 External drives
- The database files are located on the external Drives.
The 2.7 Soalris machine is close to death and have another 2.7 machine where
I would like to put the database.
I simply attached the External drives to the new Solaris 2.7 machine and got
the system and typed "sqlplus".
I got a login, and attempted to login in.
The error says:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not Available
ORA-07429: smsmsg: shmget() Failed to get segment
SVR Error: 2: No Such File or Directory
MY Assumption
Since I never literally installed ORACLE on the new machine the config files
are all wrong.
Question:
can the config files be manipulated manually or is it better to reinstall
all of oracle and then grab the Database???
