“SEVERE: OUI-10029...” Message

The installation wizard lets you specify an installation location for Oracle 10g. If you specify a location that is being used by another program or if you specify the Oracle DVD drive, Oracle displays the following message:

SEVERE: OUI-10029: You have specified a non-empty directory to install this product. It is recommended to specify either an empty or a non-existent directory. You may, however, choose to ignore this message if the directory contains Operating System generated files or subdirectories like lost+found

If you see this message, contact customer support. Engineering has found this message to indicate the installation of your Oracle database may have failed.

Brocade API Switches Displaying Stale Data

All Brocade API switches are placed in quarantine after you upgrade to Build 6.0. This means previous data is preserved but you can no longer update the data using Discovery Data Collection. Therefore, data such as topology, zoning information will be stale until you migrate to Brocade SMI-A. See ”Discovering Brocade Switches” on page 30

SIM Connector Fails to Install for Single–Server Configurations

The installation for the SIM Connector fails when the password for SIM_MANAGER is not set to quake. When Oracle is upgraded from 9i to 10g as part of the upgrade, the password for the SIM_MANAGER database account is reset to the default value which is quake. You must use the mxpassword command in HP SIM to reset the SIM_MANAGER password:

• Microsoft Windows: Enter the following at the command prompt:

C:\> mxpassword -m -x MxDBUserPassword=mynewPass where mynewPass is your new password for the Oracle database.

• Linux: Enter the following at the command prompt:

[/opt/mx/bin]# ./mxpassword -m -x MxDBUserPassword=mynewPass

where mynewPass is your new password for the Oracle database.
