Enable XA Oracle 11g

708336Jun 23 2009 — edited Jun 24 2009
Hi,

We recently moved to Oracle 11g from MSSQL and am completely new to this. Can someone tell me how to enable XA transactions on Oracle? From what I gathered, I think I need to run initjvm.sql and initxa.sql but I am not entirely sure. Is there someway of doing this through the Enterprise manager? Also, what is the XA driver class called? Is that oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADatasource?

also. You have to execute $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/xaview.sql to have XA releated views created.

Perhaps, Metalink note : Required Grants For Retail Integration Bus Distributed XA Transaction-467466.1 Would help.

Starting with JDBC driver 10g you don't have to execute initxa.sql. Basically, before 10g JDBC driver [used a PL/SQL package|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/java.102/b14355/xadistra.htm#BGBIDIGD] named JAVA_XA to manage distributed transactions, but with 10g it doesn't require additional database configuration, since it uses native protocol (claimed to be faster) without issuing PL/SQL.

Yes.

Hi,

Thanks for the response.
Does this mean I still need to run initjvm.sql and grant select,insert,update,delete on DBA_PENDING_TRANSACTIONS to user?
