ORACLE DATABASE “GENISYS” NOT CONNECTED FROM CLIENT MACHINE

It is also a possibility of not connecting oracle database "Genisys" from the Client machine that:   The Host address is not matching with the Server IP address / Name in "Listner.ora" file available in "Oracle\Ora92\network\admin"   LISTENER   The Oracle Database Listener is the database server software component that manages the network traffic between the Oracle Database and the client. The Oracle Database Listener listens on a specific network port (default 1521) and forwards network connections to the Database. The Listener is comprised of two binaries: (1) tnslsnr which is the Listener itself and (2) the Listener Control Utility (lsnrctl) which is used to administer the Listener on the server or remotely   The Listener can also be remotely managed by creating one or more alias entries in a listener.ora file. The Listener uses the TNS_ADMIN environmental variable to locate the listener.ora file, so multiple configuration files can be setup by setting TNS_ADMIN prior to executing lsnrctl. To set up a computer to remotely administer a Listener:   1. Install Oracle software that contains SQL*Net or Net8, which is usually the Oracle client. You may have to copy the lsnrctl (or lsnrctl.exe) executable from a server installation as it is not installed as part of the basic Oracle client software.   2. Configure the local listener.ora to resolve to the remote Listener.   The syntax is similar to a tnsnames.ora entry.    If the listener.ora does not exist, create and insert the entry.    Otherwise, add the entry to the listener.ora file.   A listener.ora file can contain multiple entries.    <alias> = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (Host = <host>) (Port = <port>)))    3. Start from the command line lsnrctl    4.  Restart the Server and then try to connect the Oracle Genisys Database.   Nageswaran AG

How to Resize the Recycle Bin size in Windows XP?

Ten percent space on the hard drive is reserved for the Recycle bin in Windows XP according to default settings. You can resize the Recycle bin in Windows XP so that you are able to save space of about 3GB by setting it to take only one percent space on a hard drive of 40GB. It is up to you whether you want to resize the Recycle bin in Windows XP by resizing all of the drives combined or one drive at a time.

You can resize the Recycle bin in Windows XP by this method:

1. Empty the Recycle bin. (Make sure that you don't delete something you might need later.)
2. It is also recommended that you create a Restore Point before resizing the Recycle bin or applying any other system change.
3. Right-click on the icon for the Recycle Bin.
4.  Choose and click Properties from the menu.
5. The Recycle Bin Properties window will appear. It is your choice whether you would like to configure the drives independently or all at once by selecting only one size for every drive. Drag the slider under the Global tab to alter the percentage of space taken by all the drives.

 

 

 

 

 6. You will also have the option to remove all the deleted files right away without putting them in the Recycle bin. You can do this by checking the box.

 

This option is not recommended as you might need the deleted files later or if you delete a file by mistake.

As I have several drives of different sizes in my computer, I would prefer to configure the drives one by one instead of configuring all of them globally. Select the option "Configure Drives Independently".

 

   

 

 

     Click on the tab for every drive and drag the slider to change the percentage of space you want it to utilize.

1. After you have changed the settings, click the Apply button.
2. Click the OK button.

You can resize the Recycle bin in Windows XP according to your own choice. You can turn it off entirely or even increase it to suit your requirements. Obviously, the good thing about not turning it off  is that you can restore a deleted file if it is still in the Recycle bin.
