    1. Additional Information
    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 21
    • Relevant for Installation Type: Dedicated-Direct; Direct; Local; Total Care

    Problem Symptoms:
    [NOTE: If the problem occurs on an import, such as the UE Install Customer Data, see #3 in Additional Information below.]

    1. Though the Upgrade Express ./logs/log/main.log shows:

    Start Create customer data at ...
    yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss Step create_customer_data - OK

    the ./create_customer_data.log has, for each library, only:

    Step begin create_customer_data
    Archiving Oracle and Unix data : xxxmm, xxxnn, etc.
    creating tar file
    <end>

    that is, the

    Starting util/oracle_exp_aleph_libs_a. conf_or_data: both
    . . exported "XXX01"."Znn" ...
    . . exported "XXX01"."Znnn" ...
    <etc.>

    lines which *should* appear between the "Archiving" and "creating tar file" steps are not present.

    2. The Upgrade Express ./data/a20_1/xxxnn/files/dpdir/ directories lack the correct files.

    3. The Upgrade Express ./create_customer_data.log *may* have:

    start : Oracle export using DP . Libraries: xxxnn, yyynn, etc.
    ERROR:
    ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE

    CREATE OR REPLACE AND RESOLVE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "Host" AS
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
    <etc.>

    4. The ./data/a20_1.tar.gz file is too small, for example, at a site with 260G of Oracle data it might be just 1G.

    5. A test $aleph_proc/oracle_expdp_table run gets the following errors:

    ORA-39002: invalid operation
    ORA-39070: Unable to open the log file.
    ORA-29283: invalid file operation
    ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 536
    ORA-29283: invalid file operation

    Cause:
    Oracle Data Pump not working properly

    1. because of pre-existing dpdir directories/files with permissions problems. (See "Resolution" below.)

    2. the "CREATE OR REPLACE AND RESOLVE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "Host" AS" indicates that the JVM (Oracle Java Virtual Machine component) java_jit_enabled = 'true' is invalid. Aleph currently uses JVM only in the upgrade kit.

    Resolution:
    1. If the "CREATE OR REPLACE AND RESOLVE JAVA SOURCE NAMED 'Host' AS" message appears, set java_jit_enabled to 'false'

    2. su to oracle and drop each library's XXXNN_DIR_UE directory:

    a. sqlplus
    b. connect /as sysdba
    c. select * from all_directories;
    d. drop directory XXXNN_DIR_UE; <where "XXXNN" is the library (xxx01, xxx50, etc.) >

    3. in the Aleph u-tree, delete the dpdir directories in each library's $data_files:

    a. > dlib xxxnn
    b. > df1
    c. > rm -rf dpdir

    4. Re-run the upgrade_util create_customer_data process ( -> 2. Export customer data)

    Additional Information

    1. Ex Libris recommends setting java_jit_enabled to 'false' *only* if the "CREATE OR REPLACE ..." error is occurring.

    2. See also KB 16384-64769 ( Procedure to automatically delete each library's ./files/dpdir directory) 

    3. If the problem occurs on an oracle_impdp_aleph_libs proc IMPORT and the dpdir directories have already been populated, they should *not* be deleted.** See Article 000036726 oracle_impdp_aleph_libs: invalid file operation ... at "SYS.UTL_FILE  in that case.

    4.. The export/import *could* be run without the Data Pump, but that takes five times as long and involves omitting the Keyword tables -- necessitating the running of the manage-01 Service (in v21).

    5. See also Article 000034268  Size of .tar.gz file produced by Upgrade Express "Create Customer Data" step .
