Dbvisit version Dbvisit 5.2.30 has been released. This is a minor release which includes an improved Dbvisit man or help page and fixes a small number of issues.

New features:

  1. Allow the use of other external non sendmail clients on Linux/Unix. Use MAILCFG_SENDMAIL_CLIENT to set the full path of the client.
  2. Update Dbvisit man pages.

Fixes:

  1. Correct default Oracle password file for Windows.
  2. In some cases, Oracle SID information was not obtained from registry in Windows 64bit.
  3. Improve error message when Oracle Windows service cannot be stopped or started.
  4. Improve locking mechnism on Windows. In some cases the pid lock file does not get removed after successfully running Dbvisit.
  5. Activation of standby database may not update the Dbvisit repository correctly. Initiating a Graceful Switchover after failover may result in error: ORA-00001: unique constraint (DBVISIT.DBV_TRANSFER_LOG_PK) violated. This has been fixed.
  6. Change creation of tempfile from bytes to Mb. If the file is too big then error “ORA-02237: invalid file size” may result. This has been fixed.
  7. If SOURCE or DESTINATION host names are set to long names, then Dbvisit does not use the correct starting sequence after graceful switchover. This has been fixed.
