Known Issues

The following is a list of issues known to exist at the time of this release.

Feature Known Issue and Workaround (if applicable) Defect ID

N/A
General When running the Space Manager client (64-bit) in a 64-bit environment, some users might encounter the following error when attempting to submit a standard or live reorg script: “Error creating script group: Could not load file or assembly ManagedQP5.dll or one of its dependencies. is not a valid Win32 application.” SPC-409
Domain Indexes

Reorganizing tables with Domain indexes. Space Manager provides limited support for Domain indexes when performing reorganizations and warns that you might encounter a problem because of the Domain index. Space Manager scripts the reorganization of the domain index correctly. However, the underlying implementation of the index type may be very complex, and some unforeseen dependencies may cause runtime errors.

Important: It is recommended that you test the reorganization of a table with a Domain index on a non-production version of the table to make sure Space Manager reorganizes both the table and index correctly before you reorganize your production table. 

N/A

Installation

Error when installing QSA on Windows for Oracle Database 12cR2. Some users might encounter an "Error running setup" error after attempting to install the QSA Server Agent on Windows for Oracle Database 12c R2.

Workaround: If you encounter this issue, contact Quest Support for assistance.

SPC-491
Live Reorg

Workaround: If you encounter this issue, contact Quest Support for assistance.

SPC-493

Additional Requirements for Oracle 12c Release 2 and Oracle 19c

Before installing the server components (and QSA), specify a password version for the database by performing the following procedure.

  1. First, to verify that this procedure is necessary for the target database, run the following query:

    select username, password_versions

    from dba_users

    where username = 'SPACER'

    Note: Username is the installation DBA.

  2. If results returned include "10G, 11G, 12c" in the PASSWORD VERSIONS column, then this procedure is not necessary for this database.
  3. If results do not include 10G, you must perform this procedure for the target database.
  4. Open the SQLNET.ORA file for the target database.
  5. Enter the following:

    SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION_SERVER=8

    SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION_CLIENT=8

    BEQUEATH_DETACH=YES

  6. Save the SQLNET.ORA file.
  7. Add the below command in the listener.ora file.

    USE_SID_AS_SERVICE_<oracle-sid>=on

  8. Stop and restart the listener. Use the following commands:

    lsnrctl stop

    lsnrctl start

    The listener may take a few minutes to fully restart.

  9. Alter the password for the installation DBA to a temporary password and then back again to reset it, for example:

    alter user spacer identified by X;

    alter user spacer identified by spacer;

  10. Reset the sys password using alter, for example:

    alter user sys identified by syspassword;

  11. Now run the query again to verify the change.

    select username, password_versions

    from dba_users

    where username = 'SPACER'

    Note: Username is the installation DBA.

  12. You can also verify the change for the sys user.

    select username, password_versions

    from dba_users

    where username = 'SYS'

  13. If results returned from the queries include "10G, 11G, 12c" in the PASSWORD VERSIONS column, the password version was successfully set.

For additional information, see the Oracle documentation: https://docs.oracle.com/database/121/NETRF/sqlnet.htm#NETRF2010.

Requirements for the Capacity Manager Repository

Note: Capacity Manager is not available in a 64-bit version at this time and is not included in the 64-bit installer.

The database used for the Capacity Manager repository must meet the following requirements:

Item Requirement

The installer is identified as the Space Manager with LiveReorg 9.0 Installer. The executable for the installer is available at our Support Portal at https://support.quest.com/ and on the installation CD for Space Manager with LiveReorg.

After installing the Space Manager client, you install server components and the QSA Server Agent. Each database you plan to manage with Space Manager must have server components and an agent. Job scheduling and LiveReorg require an agent. After installing the Capacity Manager client, you install the repository and assign monitored databases to the repository. Each database you plan to manage with Capacity Manager must be assigned to the repository.

QSA Server Agent version 8.5 is included in this release of Space Manager with LiveReorg 9.0.
