Peak Load

Question

I am looking for a way to repopulate some simple state information (list of
proxies) to a backup copy of one of my SO's once the primary SO fails over.
I had sent a request to the news group awhile back and received some great
suggestions about writing to a file or to the DB. However, since the state
information is data that CAN be recovered by the client app (i.e. node name,
client id, pointer or proxy through the passing of an anchored object) we
decided not to write this data to persistent storage but rather have the
client re-register themselves with the SO by sending the appropriate info
over to the SO (including the proxy back to the client). My question is
this: If the SO goes down while a large number of users are logged on (lets
say 500) and they all re-register themselves on the backup SO at the same
time (passing 3 TextData objects and a proxy to the client) how much load
will this cause and will it be enough of a load to hang the application?
Another Question is: How does one go about forcing an SO to failover for
testing purposes?
Thanks you for your assistance!!

Answer 1

You can also use audit features of the database to audit user connections/disconnections and write the query to get what you need.
Or you can also use with 9i/10g a LOGON/LOGOFF trigger to audit session connection and disconnection in a audit table and then write the query on this audit table to analyze the maximum number of connections.
Got from somewhere in the forum.
