Access 2 clustered instances on oracle 10g AS's - Webcache as loadbalancer

Hi,
Sorry i dont have a solution to your problem.
But I have a query for you, kindly help me out.
1. I have 2 oracle application servers(10g)-without webcache installed on 2 different linux machines.
2. I have a default OC4J-instance 'home' on both machines.
3. Now I deploy a war application on both machines with same name 'CS_APP' and context as 'CS' on both the application servers.
4. I am able to successfully access the application from individual servers as follows:
http://bslchnlas01:7777/CS/Index.do
and
http://bslchnlas02:7777/CS/Index.do
5. I also have performed the steps to make these 2 applications cluster aware.
6. My problem is I am not able to connect to these 2 applications in a cluster by using a urlfor example
http://bslchntest:80/CS/Index.do from a webcache installed on a third machine(windows). Also let me know how will the failover mechanism occur in this application.
7. I have made the required changes for failover mechanism in the mod_oc4j.conf file in both the servers.
A solution to my problems would be appreciatable.
Thanks,
Siddhartha ([email protected])

Siddhartha:
There are two tasks to complete for your question.
Task 1: Configure Site Definition (bslchntest:80) and Site to Server Mapping to load balance traffic to the two origin servers http://bslchnlas01:7777/CS/Index.do and http://bslchnlas02:7777/CS/Index.do.
Task 2: Configure the two Origin Servers to properly comminicate with the Web Cache installed on the third machine. For instructions read Section 3: "Dedicated Topology Option" of This Paper.
Web Cache will load balance incoming traffic to the two origin servers you specified. If one fails, all traffic will go to the remaing origin server.

  • How to Access Table Space Map in Oracle 10g OEM

    How and from where to Access Table Space Map in Oracle 10g OEM ??
    Thanks

    Hi,
    first of all, the online help system of grid control is outstanding. Just click on Help in the upper right corner and enter "Tablespace Extent Map" in the search form.
    Result:
    Show Tablespace Contents Page
    Each Oracle database is divided into one or more logical units called tablespaces. You can use Oracle Enterprise Manager to manage these tablespaces and create or modify the parameters for the tablespaces. Use the Tablespace property sheet to set general and storage information for the specified tablespace.
    Use the Show Tablespace Contents page to display the list of tablespace segments that comprise the existing tablespace. You can display Tablespace Extents by choosing Show Tablespace Extent Map at the bottom of the page. An extent is a logical unit of database storage space allocation made up of a number of contiguous data blocks. One or more extents in turn make up a segment. When the existing space in a segment is completely used, Oracle allocates a new extent for the segment.
    You can view segment extents by clicking on the link in the Extents column to display the Extents in Segments page.
    You can display the Show Tablespace Contents page by choosing Show Tablespace Contents from the command drop down list on the Tablespace property page, the Tablespace View page, or the Tablespace search results page.
    Note: Developers could only display the tablespace map to a maximum hard coded number of 30,000 extents. Tablespaces are often larger than that. If a tablespace is larger than 30,000 extents, the portion over that is displayed as Unmapped. To avoid exceeding the memory capacity of the tablespace map and to display the map without unmapped extents, use a search criteria displaying results of less than 30K extents.
    For an overview of tablespaces, see the "Overview of Tablespaces " chapter of the Oracle Database Concepts Guide.
    For more information about managing tablespaces, see the " Managing Tablespaces" chapter of the Oracle Database Administrators Guide.
    For more information about managing datafiles, see the " Managing Datafiles and Tempfiles" chapter of the Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.

  • How to access Data Guard option in Oracle 10g OEM

    Hi All,
    I have Oracle 10g ENTERPRISE EDITION on Unix envoirement. I want to setup logical standby Database through Data Guard technology. But when I brows through OEM I do not find Link for DATA GUARD????
    1) How to access Data Guard option from oracle 10g OEM.
    2) Does It come with Enterprise Edition OR I have to install it separately.
    Regards,
    Darshan

    I am managing almost everything through EM Grid Control. It is easy to setup and configure.
    Anyways, if you have read the documentation on
    Oracle® Data Guard Concepts and Administration and setup your environment accordingly then you should not have any problems. Atleast I can assure you that your production database will not be affected by it.
    Just make sure that you follow each step and read thoroughly. If you have spare machines then you can test and record your configuration before performing it on your production db. This link will provide you with the information on DataGuard.
    http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/concepts.htm
    If you think that way then you will never be able to do any new stuff since you will always fear that something might go wrong. Go ahead pal, try it on test machines and you will know that it is not that difficult.
    There are real experts who help people like us in this forum and I know that they are doing a pretty good job.
    All the best.

  • How to run the same instance of oracle 10g on another computer

    hello everyone sorry for my ignorance. I have downloaded oracle 10g express edition on 2 computers however when i login using sql developer i get two different instances of oracle databases. What file do i need to change on one of the computers so that when i log in through sql developer im always on the same database. Is there are tns.ora file that i need to make the same on my other machine? Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm not sure does I understand your requirement good?
    But if so:
    You have 2 computers and from both you want to access one single Oracle database.
    If this correct then you need only on one machine to install XE Server and on another machine ONLY XE Client.
    After that you need to copy tnsnames.ora file from computer where XE server resides to according directory where XE client resides.

  • Problem with two OC4J instances in Oracle 10g AS

    hi all,
    i am using windows XP(OS), Oracle 10g Application Server.
    when i create two instances of OC4j other than home instance, say instance1 and instance2 and deploy two different applications in two instances then i get "page not found" error.
    both the applications gets deployed successfully and different ports get selected for both applications internally.
    the thing is when i stop one of the above instance, say instance1 the instance2 works fine and doesnt throw an error. the moment i start instance 1 both the instance gives the above stated error.
    Can anyone help??
    thanks in advance!!

    Also, I am opening the sub-page from the parent page (through a hyperlink). Then in this case, Would session will be changed from parent to subpage? (I am not aware exactly and have the impression that, as the second page is a child, I guess it would take the same session).I'm not sure what "sub-page" or "parent page" means to you. If you're just linking from one page to another, "parent" and "child" don't really make sense since page A links to page B and B links to A quite frequently.
    Assuming that you have to log in to access the site, it is likely that the two pages share the same middle tier application session. It is unlikely that the middle tier would hold the database session from the first request open waiting to see if the user eventually requested the second page. It is theoretically possible that you could code your middle tier this way but it is extremely unlikely that you would want to do so for a variety of reasons. So, when you say "would [the] session ... be changed", it is likely that the application session would be the same for both calls but that the database session would be different.

  • Access 2007 ODBC connect to Oracle 10g

    I have configured MSAccess 2007 on my laptop with a ODBC data source to my Oracle Database and I can link to tables in the Oracle database and everything works.
    I have placed the Access Database on a 64 bit server running Window 2003 r2 Enterprise x64 edition.
    I have both the 32 bit Oracle 10g client and the 64 bit client installed on the machine.
    I have configured a 32bit ODBC data source using the 32 bit Oracle ODBC driver.
    When I click on the test connection button while setting up the data source it reports "Connection Successful"
    I have configured the registry entires (for 32 bit and 64bit) with TNS_ADMIN =the location where we have our sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files.
    These files were configured to support the applications which run on this same server and they all function properly.
    When I attempt to create a link table in Access, I select the datasource and I enter the password I receive an ORA-12154 error.
    Any suggestions ?

    yaa i'm sure about that .
    i want one more instance of database.Can you perhaps explain why? I have a fair share of production and development servers - and not a single one of them needs to run more than one database instance.
    So I'm interested in what requirement you are trying to satisfy by using two database instances on a single platform.
    Oh yeah - if you want to create a custom XE instance (different SID, different tablespace sizes, more/less PL/SQL stuff installed, hack standard), make a copy of your XE db creation script (in your XE's +$ORACLE_HOME/bin+ and called createdb.sh ) and modify that for your needs.
    PS. even with a different SID, only a single XE instance can be run at a time - you can however have 2 different ones defined and then use one at a time (e.g. testing international settings, init param differences, etc.)

  • Using ORADIM to create instance on Oracle 10g R2, windows platform

    Please I used the below command to create database instance to startup at the same time as of the OS is starting up.
    ORADIM -new -sid ORCL -SRVC OracleServiceORCL -STARTMODE auto -SRVCSTART system -PFILE C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\DB_1\DATABASE\INITORCL.ORA
    But When I shutdown the all system at OS level, and restart it, the OracleServiceORCL shows up as Started Automatic in the services tool, but when trying to connect ot the database, the following message appears Connected to an Idle instance So I have to startup manually the database.
    It's any thing wrong with my ORADIM command?
    Thanks for your cooperation

    Thanks,
    Maybe I didn't explain exactly what I was expecting with the standby database, these steps are what I did, to resolve the issue
    ENABLE THE STANDBY DATABASE TO STARTUP FROM SPFILE
    Step 1: create a newly spfile from the current pfile
    SQL> CREATE SPFILE='C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\DB_1\DATABASE\SPFILEORCL.ORA' FROM PFILE='C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\DB_1\DATABASE\INITORCL.ORA';
    Step 2: Rename the INITORCL.ORA TO SAVE_DATE_INITORCL.ORA
    Example: the C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\DB_1\DATABASE\INITORCL.ORA became
    C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\DB_1\DATABASE\SAVE_24072007_INITORCL.ORA
    Step 3: delete the former sid created
    C:\ORADIM -delete -sid orcl
    Instance deleted.
    Step 3: Change the Oracle service to start when the OS start
    C:\ ORADIM -new -sid ORCL -SRVC OracleServiceORCL -STARTMODE auto -SRVCSTART system -SPFILE
    Instance created.
    Now When I shutdown the whole system and start it up, the standby database startup. the only thing is that the standby database startup a read-only mode, defautl with oracle 10g this is fine for me, because the MRP is stopped but the log shipping is not stopped.
    So eventhough the system admin shutdown the database server at OS level without letting me know, tha standby should continue receiving archived log files.
    I'll just need to monitore the lop apply process and start it to apply archived log files received
    Thanks

  • BW Sizing with multiple app. instances on Oracle 10g

    Hello folks,
    I have a few confusions to clarify as i am engaged in BW sizing exercise. Customer has a huge environment with multitera bytes of data and its expected to grow in size and also # of users too and they have multiple BW app instances (NW 7.0) running on Oracle 10g. Its a RESIZING exercise for post go-live in Production solutions and also maybe Delta Sizing for new expected growth.
    I went thru all the docs on SMPsizing but wanted to clarify some stuff from folks who have worked on this kind of environment. I did not find per say  "BW Sizing" document for NW 7.0, all i found was something about BW 3.0 (http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10e7e662-dc1c-2a10-d78c-a187d1a25f80) and also another document ASAP for BW sizing ver 3.1 / 2004. h hints to calculate Disk space, memory and Cpu. Will these assumptions or parameters .
    Questions:
    Do the parameters and assumptions in the above lets say about # of bytes to SAPs would be applicable to the environment i am working on i-e NW7.0?
    For Space sizing to calculate size of InfoCube there is something called 2X disk space requirement of the largest fact table or at least 10GB (PSAPTEMP)....DO I have to add that to every cube for which i am calculating space size?
    In CPU Data Staging part there are assumptions based on BW Benchmark like rec/hour/job= 750000, SAPS/batchjob= 350saps and then Maintenace Window = customer input...is this customer input is the window in HOURS when data load happens?
    Also for same CPU Sizing Data staging #jobs={sum(delta upload)/maintenance window} / 75000....what is this  delta upload consists of?
    SAPS that come out from CPU query and from CPU staging , do i sum them up together and then find out Partner BenchMark# or deal with them seperately?
    I only see SAPS BenchMark available for hardware partners to compare for ONLY 2-tier systems although environemnt i am working on is 3-tier, would it be still valid?
    You help will be appreciated, anyone.
    thanks.
    Manish

    Hi, Venkat, I hope you posted the same question in other Data Warehousing also.
    BW sizing
    We have a tool called Quick Sizer in service.sap.com and if you provide the information to that tool it will give the BW Hardware sizing, you add 20% buffer to the final figure.
    You need to give the following information...
    1. No. of users i.e 3 kinds of users.
    2. No. of Records Per day with Line Items.
    3. Loading Frequency.
    4. No. of InfoCubes/DSO's, Master Data Objects.
    5. Future enhancemts like that.
    It is better you ask Basis people about Quick Sizer and ask the above points to your Business and Functional People.
    Thanks

  • Unable to Access the home page of oracle  10g express edition.

    I have installed enterprise manager 10g and also express edition 10g .But after installing the enterprise manager 10g and trying to access the url http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex .The xdb username and password is prompted.I deleted the entry in init.ora for the xdb parameter to avoid the userid prompt but still the xdb login credentials are prompted.How can I avoid this message in order to access the 10g express edition home page.
    Regards
    Pandu

    It appears you've got two things listening on port 8080, or more accurately two things that want to listen on port 8080. The winner is probably the Enterprise Manager. The easiest way to check this would be to connect as SYSDBA and run the following to reset the 10gXE XDB listener port:
    EXEC dbms_xdb.sethttpport(8181);
    Then, attempt to reconnect to the 10gXE on the new port. I suspect a new attempt to connect at the old port 8080 will return the same message. If it doesn't fix it, you should probably inspect the configuration file for XDB. You can do that by running the following:
    SET LONG 10000
    SET PAGESIZE 9999
    SELECT dbms_xdb.cfg_get() FROM dual;
    You'll find the template for configuration in the $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/xml directory. Hope this helps.

  • How do I view Migrate Data errors - Access 2003 - Oracle 10g

    I'm trying to use the SQL Developer to migrate data from an Access 2003 database to an Oracle 10g database. I followed the instructions found here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/files/omwb_getstarted.html
    I was able to complete every step except the actual data move. I exported the xml for the Access database, I captured the export and then ran the generation scripts on my target Oracle database (I'm using the same schema for the migration repository and the actual data). It created the tables with only one or two errors which I resolved.
    Now, when I select Migration->Migrate Data, I get the dialog that appears to start 4 or 5 threads and attempts to migrate each table. They all error and do not transfer any rows. I can see that there's one error per table, but I can't see the error text. I just know that an error occurred. Is there a log somewhere or is the error displayed somewhere else? How do I know what's gone wrong?
    Thanks.

    I too receive unexplained error counts using the Migrate Data menu selection and unexplained failures using the Generate Data Move Scripts menu selection. Permissions granted by role or direct grants should not be a problem, but a Migrate Data error appears in the Migration Log panel at the bottom of the SQL Developer window, "Failed to disable constraints: ORA-00942 ... ". No further details available on what constraints or why the error. No other errors were detected while following the instructions found in the Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench Getting Started guide. SQL Developer never migrates the data from the existing Access 2000 mdb file to the newly created schema objects in Oracle 10g using either method. The following roles and privileges have been granted to both the repository owner and the target schema owner:

    Operating system for both Access 2000 and Oracle 10g is Windows XP PRO SP2.
    Oracle SQL Developer is version 1.1.2.25 build MAIN-25.79 on Windows XP PRO SP2. All three are on the same PC.
    Since only the last step failed, I created a User DSN with the ODBC administrator. Then, linked the newly created Oracle table to Access via ODBC using the DSN created. Next, I created an append query with the source being the Access table and the target being the Oracle table. I moved the data by pressing the red exclamation mark.
