Find the Alert Log Files

By Unknown
Need to find the location of the alert log file. It's by default in the background dump destination. You can find it in the parameters of the instance.

SQL> show parameter background_dump_dest

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
background_dump_dest                 string      /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/dev/dev/trace

SQL>  !ls -ltr /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/dev/dev/trace/al*

Cancel or abort adop session

By Unknown
ADOP is in my opinion still pretty half baked. This is a critical tool that just isn't as intuitive as the old adpatch was. However we move with the times and get the hang of the new way of doing things. Along the way you might want to abort or cancel a patching cycling. With the two file systems and db editioning this can be a bit more to manage. I have learnt the hard way so you need to use the full cleanup after aborting a session. adop phase=abort adop phase=cleanup cleanup_mode=full

Error during rapid clone on pasteBinary.sh, exit code 255

By Unknown
I needed to run a clone and was running into a really head scratcher. As is Oracle\'s way they sometimes enjoy giving us DBA's a bit of detective work to do. As usual I kept knocking my head into various brick walls instead of tracking back through the logs. Eventually I came up with the problem Start to configure the run filesystem. You can do a dualfs from AD-TXK Delta 7 but for now I just needed to get this up and running: perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier START: Creating FMW Home.
