Upgrading 10gR2 to 11gR2

i)

Pre-requisites

a) Complete Checklist for Manual Upgrades to 11gR2 [ID 837570.1]

b) Ensure that all database components / objects provided by Oracle are
VALID in the source database prior to starting the upgrade

SQL> set pagesize500

SQL>
set linesize 100
SQL>
select substr(comp_name,1,40) comp_name, status,
substr(version,1,10) version from dba_registry order by comp_name;
SQL> select substr(object_name,1,40) object_name,substr(owner,1,15)
owner,object_type from dba_objects where status='INVALID' order by
owner,object_type;
SQL> select owner,object_type,count(*) from dba_objects where
status='INVALID' group by owner,object_type order by
owner,object_type ;

iii)

Install database software only

Single instance database
Enterprise Edition
Check for kernel parameters
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.msgmnb = 65535
kernel.msgmni = 2878
kernel.sem = 256 32000 100 142
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
net.core.rmem_default = 262144
net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 1048576
fs.file-max = 6915744
fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
Check for Packages ( elfutils and unixODBC-devel were missing in my
instance. I ignored and moved further)
Proceed with installation
Execute root.sh and complete the installation
Copy utlu112i.sql from 11i ORACLE_HOME to any temporary directory
Execute utlu112i.sql from 10g ORACLE_HOME
Source ORACLE_HOME,PATH,SID
export ORACLE_HOME= /oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export ORACLE_SID=test
sqlplus /as sysdba
SQL>@ utlu112i.sql
Check the spool file for any Errors and clear them before proceeding
with the upgrade.

Check for the integrity of the source database prior to

starting the upgrade by downloading and running
dbupgdiag.sql script from below Metalink article
Note 556610.1 Script to Collect DB Upgrade/Migrate Diagnostic Information
(dbupgdiag.sql)
Check the logfile for any erros.

iv)

Check for TIMESTAMP WITH TIMEZONE Datatype

SQL> select * from v$timezone_file;

v)

FILENAME
-----------timezlrg.dat

VERSION
---------4

Check no files need media recovery

SELECT * FROM v$recover_file;

vi)

Check no files are in backup mode

SELECT * FROM v$backup WHERE status != 'NOT ACTIVE';

vii)

To check if a standby database exists, issue the following

query:
SELECT SUBSTR(value,INSTR(value,'=',INSTR(UPPER(value),'SERVICE'))+1)
FROM v$parameter
WHERE name LIKE 'log_archive_dest%' AND UPPER(value) LIKE 'SERVICE%';

viii)

Ensure the users sys and system have 'system' as their

default tablespace.
You must have sufficient space in the tablespace or be set to extents unlimited.
SQL> SELECT username, default_tablespace
FROM dba_users
WHERE username in ('SYS','SYSTEM');

USERNAME
DEFAULT_TABLESPACE
------------------------------ -----------------------------SYSTEM
SYSTEM
SYS
SYSTEM

ix)

Note down the location of datafiles, redo logs, control files.

Also take a backup of all configuration files like
listener.ora,tnsnames.ora,etc., from $ORACLE_HOME
SQL> SELECT name FROM v$controlfile;
NAME
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/control01.ctl
/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/control02.ctl
/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/control03.ctl
SQL> SELECT file_name FROM dba_data_files;
FILE_NAME
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/users01.dbf
/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/sysaux01.dbf
/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/undotbs01.dbf
/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/system01.dbf
/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/example01.dbf
SQL> SELECT group#, member FROM v$logfile;
GROUP#
---------MEMBER
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------3

/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/test/redo01.log
SQL>

x)

Stop the listener

xi)

Stop other executable such as dbconsole, isqlplus

Lsnrctl stop

emctl stop dbconsole

isqlplusctl stop

xii)

Copy the parameter file from 10g ORACLE_HOME to 11g

ORACLE_HOME

cp -r initTEST.ora /oraProdBin/app/oradev/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/

xiii) Open and edit the pfile as follows

Commend the below lines
# Diagnostics and Statistics

#background_dump_dest=/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/ad
min/test/bdump
#core_dump_dest=/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/admin/test
/cdump
#user_dump_dest=/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/admin/test
/udump
Add
_disable_fast_validate = true
Replace old ORACLE_HOME with new ORACLE_HOME.

xiv) Set the environment variables to point to the new 11g

ORACLE_HOME

xv)

export ORACLE_HOME=/oraProdBin/app/oradev/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export ORACLE_SID=test

Update the oratab entry, to set the new ORACLE_HOME

pointing towards TEST database
#test:/oraProdBin/10g/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:N
test:/oraProdBin/app/oradev/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1:N

xvi) Start the database in upgrade mode

directory, to perform upgrade actions that do not require the database
to be in UPGRADE mode:
c) Run dbdiag.sql
