Chris,
Thank you for pointing that out, but the path is correct except it is path
for PRODDB and not DEVDB. There is timezone.dat in correct location of
DEVDB which is $ORACLE_HOME/oracore/zoneinfo/timezone.dat, but sybase
repagent is looking for the file in $ORACLE_HOME/oracore/zoneinfo of
PRODDB. I would like to point out again that DEVDB was cloned from PRODDB,
so that is why I am thinking if timezone.dat info is store somewhere
inside the database.
Thanks
Mayen

No the info does not get stored in the database.
However, this path looks suspect:
/opt/PRODDB/oracle/product/10.2.0.4/oracore/zoneinfo/timezone.dat
Is there anything else between the “10.2.0.4” and the “oracore” in the
path? Typically there’s like a db_1 or something as part of the path.
If you don’t have a timezone.dat file in that location, you should. If it
is not there I would think there might be something missing from the
install besides this file.

Subject: Timezone file
Hi List Members,
I have rather strange issue.
Using RMAN I created a clone of PRODDB to DEVDB 10.2.0.4 on Solaris 10. No
issue here.
Trying to set Sybase replication going from oracle DEVDB to one of the
sybase servers.
During repagent setup I am getting following error:
Command <pdb_xlog> failed - Could not initialize the primary database
because:
ORACLE_HOME could not be found to help locate timezone file because Could
not find Oracle timezone file
</opt/PRODDB/oracle/product/10.2.0.4/oracore/zoneinfo/timezone.dat>..
Please set ORACLE_HOME or update config property pdb_timezone_file.
It seems that sybase agent setup is trying to locate timezone.dat but
getting path for timezone.dat file from PRODDB. As a work around I set
pdb_timezone_file pointing to DEVDB timezone file and error disappeared.
I am running this on DEVDB and yes I checked ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID etc
settings few hundred times and they all are pointing to DEVDB.
It is possible that timezone.dat file name and path may be stored
somewhere inside the database, which did not get changed during database
cloning, and sybase rep agent is looking at the information?
My question is that is there anywhere inside the database, timezone file
name gets stored?
Thanks
Mayen
