Description Pre-requisites for Upgrade.
Comments - NLS_SORT parameter must be BINARY (NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS)
- Pctincrease on the tablespaces should be high to avoid too many extents
- Pctfree must be 30 or higher on the large tables.like S_ORG_EXT,S_CONTACT etc
- DB_CACHE_SIZE. Set parameter to a minimum of 394264576, higher would be
better.
- SORT_AREA_SIZE. Set this parameter to a minimum of 1524288. Higher would be
better - AUTOMATIC
- UNDO_MANAGEMENT should be set to auto - CONFIRMED
- Rollback Segments. Verify that you have only one large rollback segment on line
that is appropriately sized so that the largest of transactions can be accommodated.
Take all other rollback segments off line

Solution :
- NLS_SORT :
ALTER SYSTEM SET NLS_SORT=BINARY SCOPE=SPFILE;
Shutdown immediate;
Startup
Show parameter nls_sort
- Pctincrease: Since tablespaces are locally managed so we unable to set this parameter.
- Pctfree : table sizes > 10GB, use alter table siebel.S_WFA_STPRP_LOG pctfree 30;
- DB_CACHE_SIZE: This parameter is automatically set and it depends upon sga_max_size.
- SORT_AREA_SIZE. Obsolete parameter – below mentioned parameter to be set instead.
- UNDO_MANAGEMENT: AUTO
- Rollback Segments. Obsolete rollback segments are to be handled automatically using above parameter.
- For multiple processors (CPUs), then verify that the following parameters are set correctly parallel_max_servers.
- DB is in no archive mode or FRA to be monitored by PTCL, there wont be space related issue in FRA so it is better to turn
