Upgrade Database to 12C using TDE Tablespace Encryption

The TDE tablespace encryption functionality can be used to encrypt the tablespace where all the data is stored from an EBS application. As TDE is transparent to application, rewriting the code is not required. Any authorized user can access the encrypted data without any issue.

Introduction

Any authorized user can access the encrypted data without any issue. The TDE applies to the data-at-rest like datafiles and backup files.

Objective

The TDE tablespace encryption option enables you to secure all the sensitive data stored in the EBS database. Only authorized users can access the encrypted data.

Limitation

The SYSTEM and SYSAUX cannot be encrypted as these are created at the time of creating a DB and not during the time of tablespace creation. Encryption option is appended during the tablespace creation. Undo and TEMP tablespace also can not be encrypted but data stored from encrypted tablespace in TEMP/UNDO is encrypted.

Implementation Steps

1. Verify software versions

• Patch 16207672 - 12.2.2

• Patch 20745242 - R12.AD.C.Delta.7

• Patch 20784380 - R12.TXK.C.Delta.7

• Patch 19597008

• Patch 20251314 (included in 12.2.5)

• Patch 8796558

• Patch 19343134

2. Prepare 12.1.0 DB Home

• Install the 12.1.0 software

• Install Oracle Database 12c Products from the 12c Examples CD (mandatory)

• Apply additional 12.1.0.2 RDBMS patches

3. Apply all the latest required DB ETCC/PSU patches

4. 4. Create nls/data/9idata directory

perl $ORACLE_HOME/nls/data/old/cr9idata.pl

5 5. Apply Patch 16541956 on the Applications consolidated using the export/import utility patch on source administration server node.

Create a working directory

mkdir /u01/expimp << /u01/oracle/patches/12c_db/backup/expimp/3rditeration

7. Generate target database instance creation script aucrdb.sql

The export/import patch provides the auclondb.sql script which generates the aucrdb.sql script. Copy $AU_TOP/patch/115/sql/auclondb.sql script from app node to DB node source and execute as below.

$ sqlplus system/[system password] \ @$AU_TOP/patch/115/sql/auclondb.sql 12

8. Record advanced queue settings

Copy the auque1.sql script from the $AU_TOP/patch/115/sql from the app node to DB node and execute. The following command generates auque2.sql.

$ sqlplus /nolog

SQL> connect / as sysdba;

SQL> @auque1.sql

9. Remove rebuild index parameter in spatial indexes

select * from dba_indexes where index_type=‘DOMAIN’ and upper(parameters) like ‘%REBUILD%';

10. Synchronize Text indexes

$ sqlplus '/ as sysdba' SQL> select pnd_index_owner,pnd_index_name,count(*) from ctxsys.ctx_pending group by pnd_index_owner,pnd_index_name;

Use below command if any row returned from above query

exec ctx_ddl.sync_index('[index owner].[index name]');

11. Create the export parameter file

Copy $AU_TOP/patch/115/import/auexpdp.dat from the App node and edit as per the requirement.

diff auexpdp.dat auexpdp.dat.orig « /u01/oracle/patches/12c_db/backup/expimp 8c8 < filesize=5368709120

filesize=1048576000 12,13d11 < PARALLEL=5 < EXCLUDE=STATISTICS

Create directory as required.

SQL> create or replace directory dmpdir as '/u01/oracle/patches/12c_db/backup/expimp/2nditeration';

Directory created.

12. Ensure no patching cycle is active.

18. Export the applications database instance

$ expdp "'/ as sysdba'" parfile=[export parameter file name]

19. Revoke privilege from source system schema

SQL> revoke EXEMPT ACCESS POLICY from system;

20. Enable Oracle Advanced Security TDE Tablespace Encryption (Using Oracle wallet method)

Add this entry to the sqlnet_ifile.ora in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/_:

Keep it in single line to avoid format issue

ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION=(SOURCE=(METHOD = FILE)(METHOD_DATA=(DIRECTORY= /u01/oracle/dbhome1/12.1.0.2/wallet)))

21. Create the target initialization parameter file / working directory

22. Modify the aucrdb.sql script as per actual location of target database datafiles

Append the following to each ‘CREATE TABLESPACE’ command in aucrdb.sql:

ENCRYPTION [USING '<enc. algorithm>;'] DEFAULT STORAGE (ENCRYPT) possible choices are: 3DES168, AES128 (default if none specified), AES192, and AES256).

23. Finally split the edited copy of aucrdb.sql into two separate .sql files, the first will contain the CREATE DATABASE statement and the second will contain the CREATE TABLESPACE statements.

24. Create the target database instance

$ sqlplus /nolog SQL> connect / as sysdba; SQL> spool aucrdb1.log; For UNIX or Linux: SQL> startup nomount; SQL> @aucrdb1.sql SQL> spool off

25. After DB is created, you first need to create the encryption key before creating the tablespace.

For encrypted tablespaces and encryption key management based on Oracle Wallet:

SQL alter system set encryption key identified by "<Strong_Password > >";

26. Create encrypted tablespace using the following script

SQL> spool aucrdb2.log SQL> @aucrdb2.sql << Make sure this include encryption syntex SQL> exit;

27. When the target database instance has been created, restart the database instance

Shutdown immediate cp -pR wallet wallet.orig.date orapki wallet create -wallet /u01/oracle/dbhome1/12.1.0.2/wallet -auto_login

Make wallet autologin

startup mount If an Oracle Wallet is used:

Below is required in case of manual wallet SQL> alter system set encryption wallet open identified by “<strong_password>"; alter database open;

select * from v$encryption_wallet;

28. Copy all the database preparation scripts to target Oracle home to setup sys/system schemas.

29. Set up the SYS schema

$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba" @audb1210.sql

30. Set up the SYSTEM schema

$ sqlplus system/[system password] @ausy1210.sql

31. Install Java Virtual Machine

$ sqlplus system/[system password] @aujv1210.sql

32. Install other required components

sqlplus system/**** @aumsc1210.sql SYSAUX TEMP

33. Perform patch post-install instructions

SQL> conn /as sysdba Connected to an idle instance. SQL> startup upgrade cd $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch [oracle@dbnode OPatch]$ ./datapatch –verbose SQL> shut immediate SQL> startup SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql

34. Set CTXSYS parameter (conditional)

$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba" SQL> exec ctxsys.ctx_adm.set_parameter('file_access_role', 'public');

35. Disable automatic gathering of statistics

$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba" SQL> alter system enable restricted session; SQL> @adstats.sql $ sqlplus "/ as sysdba" SQL> alter system disable restricted session; SQL> exit;

36. Back up the target database instance (Optional)

37. Create the import parameter files

SQL> show user USER is "SYSTEM" SQL> create or replace directory dmpdir as '/u01/oracle/patches/12c_db/backup/expimp';

Directory created.

Copy dump files from source to target server if servers are different

38. Import the Applications database instance

$ impdp "'/ as sysdba'" parfile=auimpdp.dat

39. Import OLAP analytical workspaces (conditional)

Steps related to target (12c) needs to be performed here

40. Revoke privilege from target system schema

SQL> revoke EXEMPT ACCESS POLICY from system;

41. Reset Advanced Queues

$ sqlplus /nolog SQL> connect / as sysdba; SQL> @auque2.sql

42. Run adgrants.sql

$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba" @adgrants.sql APPS

43. Grant create procedure privilege on CTXSYS

$ sqlplus apps/[APPS password] @adctxprv.sql \ [SYSTEM password] CTXSYS

44. Start the new database listener (conditional)

45. Deregister the current database server

$ sqlplus apps/[APPS password] SQL> exec fnd_conc_clone.setup_clean;

46. Implement and run AutoConfig

perl $AD_TOP/bin/admkappsutil.pl

Copy appsutil.zip to $ORACLE_HOME/ on DB node.

unzip -o appsutil.zip

Build $CONTEXT_FILE

perl adbldxml.pl

./adconfig.sh

Restart DB/Listener - Source new env file

Run autoconfig on App node run fs

./adconfig.sh

Run autoconfig on App node patch fs

./adconfig.pl contextfile=$CONTEXT_FILE run=INSTE8

47. Gather statistics for SYS schema

$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba" SQL> alter system enable restricted session; SQL> @adstats.sql $ sqlplus "/ as sysdba" SQL> alter system disable restricted session; SQL> exit;

49. Create ConText objects

You need to call the scripts by using the driver file to create these objects. Run the following command:

$ perl $AU_TOP/patch/115/bin/dpost_imp.pl [driver file] [source database version] adop phase=apply hotpatch=yes

50. Populate CTXSYS.DR$SQE Table

$ sqlplus apps/[apps password] SQL> exec icx_cat_sqe_pvt.sync_sqes_for_all_zones;

51. Compile Invalid Objects

52. Recreate XLA packages (conditional)

If you dropped the XLA packages in the source environment, copy $XLA_TOP/patch/115/sql/xla6128278.sql from source to target and run as below.

$ sqlplus apps/[APPS password] SQL> @xla6128278.sql [spool log file]

53. Run AutoConfig on the Run APPL_TOP

==>echo $FILE_EDITION run ==>./adconfig.sh

54. Apply post-upgrade WMS patches (conditional)

If you upgraded from an RDBMS version prior to 12c, apply Patch 19007053 adop phase=apply patches=19007053 patchtop=/home/applmgr/exp_patch apply_mode=downtime workers=12

55. Maintain application database objects

a. Compile flexfield data in AOL tables b. Recreate grants and synonyms for APPS schema
