    Questions about using DBCA to crate a new 10.2..0.3 db.

    I have one question about the procedure to use DBCA to create a new database 10.2.0.3

    1. install the 10.2.0.1
    2. 2. Patch to 10.2.0.3
    3. 3. Use DBCA to generate the scripts to create a new database
    4. run the generated script to create a new db

    Do I still need to run the catupgrd.sql as manually upgrading one existing database to 10.2.0.3?

    Thanks,

    Lily

    I didn’t do the catupgrd.sql

    From the dba_registry

    All the components including
    Oracle Database Catalog Views and Oracle Database Packages and Types are 10.2..0.3.

    Why did I ask this question?
    Because one of our co-worked was told by one Oracle Support that using DBCA to create a new database, the Oracle uses the rmanrestore to restore a seed db to create the database.
    If without running the caqtupgrd.sql, the system vies will be still in 10.2.0.1.

    But from the dba_registr, they show all is on 10.2.0.3 .

    So I am asking this question.

    only need to upgrade if you use the templates - create a new one from scratch and you are fine

    Thanks for the reply. This is what I thought.

    But the Oracle Support insisted that DBCA is using a seed database to
    create a new database so that need to run the catupgrd.sql to
    put all the system views to 10.2.0.3. Otherwise they are still 10.2.0.1

    From my dba_registry, all the componts are on 10.2.0.3.

    not if you are only creating scripts from it, only if you use the templates
