ACFS confusion...

Guys-
I am a little bit in a fix here… We have the same version of oracle software running on 2 systems (say box1 and cluster1). When I run the following command; I get 2 different responses… the only difference is box1 is a single node system (non cluster) and cluster1 is a RAC cluster. Both are 11gR2 (11.2.0.3).
[oracle@box1 ~]$ srvctl status filesystem
Usage: srvctl <command> <object> [<options>]
commands: enable|disable|start|stop|status|add|remove|modify|getenv|setenv|unsetenv|config|upgrade
objects: database|service|asm|diskgroup|listener|home|ons
For detailed help on each command and object and its options use:
srvctl <command> -h or
srvctl <command> <object> -h
PRKO-2012 : filesystem object is not supported in Oracle Restart
[oracle@cluster1 ~]$ srvctl status filesystem -d /dev/asm/dbhome-2
ACFS file system is running on cluster1a,cluster1b,cluster1c,cluster1d
I am confused... can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

The confusion over your two different responses stems from the difference between Oracle Restart and RAC. The srvctl command supports different objects in each variant.
You can use ACFS in Oracle Restart, but the high availability features of the ACFS resources are missing - thus, the srvctl command does not support the 'filesystem' object.
Please check your documentation for the version you are using - iirc, the RAC Admin Guide has an appendix that lists the srvctl command reference, with notes as to whether or not its applicable in Restart or RAC.
Note that in Oracle Restart, you can always use system commands such as 'mount' and 'acfsutil info fs' to get the status of the file systems.

Question: OEL 5.7 support ADVM/ACFS ? Yes or NO?

From what I can gather, yes or no will not be the right answer, but "it depends".
If you read further you will see that Oracle recommends that you create Oracle data files in Oracle ASM disk groups. Creating Oracle data files on an Oracle ACFS file system is not supported. Oracle ACFS resources are not supported for Oracle Restart, etc.
So I guess whether or not you have a problem because of lack of ACFS and ADVM depends on what you are trying to accomplish. For ASM, you don't need it.
For what it's worth:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/relnotes.112/e23558/toc.htm
Starting with Oracle Database 11.2.0.2, Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel is supported. Oracle ACFS and Oracle ADVM are not supported with the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel in 11.2.0.2 and earlier releases.
Apparently there are some work-arounds required when using the RHEL kernel. Google will give you some clues.

User for ADVM and ACFS Volume management

Hi I am getting confused which user to use for ADVM and ACFS management.
I want to create a new volume and ACFS.
My normal grid and db admin user is "oracle" in the group 'oinstall". For the ACFS setup, I have granted the oracle user with root privileges.
No I want to create a new volume in ADVM using "ASMCMD". No matter whether I create the volume with the root user, or the oracle user., the volume is assigned to the following user:
[root@grid1 asm]# ll /dev/asm/
total 0
brwxrwx---. 1 root oinstall 251, 194561 Mar 24 10:15 volume1-380
Is this correct?
Because when I do (as the oracle user):
sudo /sbin/acfsutil registry -a /dev/asm/volume1-380 /srv/u01/app/acfsmounts/myacfs
The privileges are:
[oracle@grid1 app]$ ll
total 16
d---------. 3 root root 4096 Mar 24 10:51 acfsmounts
[root@grid1 acfsmounts]# ll
total 4
drwxr-xr-x. 4 root root 4096 Mar 24 10:32 myacfs
Now the condition is as follow:
As oracle user:
no access at all on both nodes:
[oracle@grid1 acfsmounts]$ ls
ls: cannot open directory .: Permission denied
[oracle@grid2 acfsmounts]$ ls
ls: cannot open directory .: Permission denied
As root user:
On node1, I can do everything:
[root@grid1 myacfs]# echo "dadwad" > dawdawd.txt
--> SUCCESS
But on node2, I cant create a file:
[root@grid2 myacfs]# cat dawdawd.txt
--> SUCCESS
[root@grid2 myacfs]# echo "dawd" > newfile
-bash: newfile: Permission denied

I believe you can succeed by following the steps described in the documentation, so if you get any issue just post here.

ASM snapshots and ACFS

I've been playing with 11gr2, asm and ACFS.. I saw the new snapshot technology and I thought wahooo.... I've worked with netapp in my previous job, and I loved the snapshot technology. I was thinking this would be the same..
You would put your files on a "cooked" file system, put your database in backup, snap, then take out of backup.. backup your snap.. Run into an issue , and you "snap back".. even better for dataguard.. You shutdown your Physicaly standby, snap the volume.. make your standby read write.. do you testing, then snap back and put back in recover.. easy as pie.
I have a number of questions after looking at ACFS.
1) There is no snapback ?? do I have this right ? you can create and delete, but you can't snap back?
2) Oracle ACFS does not support any file that can be directly stored in Oracle ASM. This is right out of the manual.. If you look up "any file that can be stored in oracle ASM" you find datafiles, controlfiles. archive logs, datapump files. This means that oracle will not the support using ACFS for your database files that you would most likely want to snap?
3) What do people see as the use of snapshots if you can't use them for database files, or are people going to put database files onto ACFS volumes regardless of the above statement ?
Personally I would love to put my archive logs, and datapump files on a "cooked" filesystem.. Database files are fine on ASM. This statement worries me too
"Create Oracle Database data files directly on Oracle ASM storage for best performance because Oracle ACFS does not support directIO for file read and write operations in 11g Release 2 (11.2)."

I'm not experienced with ASM snapshots, but I'll implement it on my VBOX TEST RAC within minutes, so I'll be able to give you a more specific answer, but...
¿What's the point in having incremental point-in-time recovery for archivelog (incremental backup) and/or datapumps (full logical backups)? Don't you find it a bit too-much redundant?
In fact, I'm interested into testing it specially for saving backup time and space in databases with high DML transactions per second, so I could put them in NOARCHIVELOG or even in NOLOG mode (As ASM Snapshots claims to be a consistent point-in-time-recovery backup).
Anyway. I'll provide you more feed back as soon as I test empirically your questions, but as far as I'm concerned, direct I/O is not recommended (or even available) on Linux 64bits, which is the more common and extended (and preferred by my own as well) combination. But Metalink is not available at the moment so anyway I'll have to wait to ensure you the answer as I might be confused with the ext3 filesystem recommendation.

ACFS and ASM Vol

when should w to use ACFS and ASM Vol on 11G Rel 2 11.2.0.3.0
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16338_01/server.112/e10500/asmfilesystem.htm
•Oracle ASM is the preferred storage manager for all database files. It has been specifically designed and optimized to provide the best performance for database file types.
•Oracle ACFS is the preferred file manager for non-database files. It is optimized for general purpose files.
•Oracle ACFS does not support any file that can be directly stored in Oracle ASM.
is ACFS optional and does it incur any additional licensing costs

Oracle has thrown in all sorts of nonsensical verbiage to completely confuse everyone as to how you can us e ACFS. You can use it for "database-related" stuff but you can't use it for data files, archivelog files, backup files. You can store exports because if you do a parallel expdp the export file(s) must be visible to the entire cluster. Which **I think** is to be interpreted that you cannot store "application" files that are required to be accessible by your applications. I surmise that the reason for this is that Oracle decided they could make more $$$ by releasing a "product" called CloudFS. CloudFS **is** ASM/ACFS - and nothing more. So, on your Weblogic clustered middle-tier you can use Cloudfs to store your application data files.
Example for mid-tier:
some process transfers 100's of files to be processed
The middle-tier - running on multiple servers (nodes)
take the files and process them in parallel (mechanisms in place to ensure only one node processes a given file )
writes output files to another shared directory.
In the past, you would provide a "share" by using NFS. Well, as it turns out - really bad things can happen when when one of the nodes processing and not receiving the files dies, you can have files get "lost" if that NFS share dies.
ACFS works great for this - and Oracle realized that since "ASM/GI" was sort-f "free" they needed to close that loophole. In RAC, the only thing that "cost extra" was the RAC license which only applied to the RDBMS code that made the database cluster-aware. <this from a conversation from an ex-Oracle Salesman>.

ACFS Mounts change permission when Oracle Installer is run

I'm sorry for the confusion. I mistated the permissions and since corrected. We have the FS's set to 775 and when Oracle Installer is run they change to 770.
We are using ACFS filesystems for a viariety of things, one being user home directories between a two node 11G RAC cluster.
The problem that we are having is whenever we run the Oracle Installer, the permissions on certain directories change from 775 to 770. Our current ACFS mounts are located under the /oraclegrid/products directory, like this...
[Server1:root /oraclegrid/product ] # ls -l
total 35451
drwxrwx--- 3 oracle oinstall 3 Jun 29 2011 11.2.0.2_old
drwxrwxr-x 13 oracle oinstall 19 Jun 21 2011 acfsmounts
lrwxrwxrwx 1 oracle oinstall 13 Apr 27 2011 admin -> /oracle/admin
[Server1:root /oraclegrid/product/acfsmounts ] # ls -l
total 198

drwxrwx--- 13 oracle oinstall 4096 May 3 2011 ORADIAG
drwxrwx--- 30 oracle oinstall 8192 Feb 8 16:16 ORADUMP
The directories that change permission sometimes varies, for some reason. Most of the times the following change to 770 and we have to change then to 775 after Oracle Installer is run...
/oraclegrid/product
/oraclegrid/product/acfsmounts
/oraclegrid/product/acfsmounts/EXPHOME
/oraclegrid/product/acfsmounts/OPT*
This may have something to do with the location of the ACFS mountpoint, but really unsure.
Thanks for suggestions.

Yeah - I wasn't sure if I should have changed my original post... I hope that did not confuse the issue.
I appreciate your response, but I have not noticed the permissions changing on reboot. They seem to change only when we run the Oracle Installer. I'm think we may want to either change the owners to something other than root:oinstall or possibly move them out from under the /oraclegrid/product directory. We are on a change freeze now and I can't test this for a couple of weeks, but if you know of any reason why Oracle Installer would change these perms, please let me know.
Thanks again.

Apple ID appearing on another iPhone device (Sync confusion)

Issue
iTunes is sporadically requesting access to my partner's Apple ID account when downloading applications and trying to install the other iTunes account applications also when syncing takes place within iTunes. System software/accounts seems confused.
How can I ensure that both devices remain separate and do not access each other's iTunes accounts or sync over Mac logins? How can I delete mixed applications from separate Apple ID's ensuring it won't replicate the deletion on the primary Apple ID?
Background
1 x Macbook Pro OS 10.8.2
iTunes 11.0.1
App Store 1.2.1
1 x iPhone 4S OS 6.0.1 (Device A)
1 x iPhone 4 OS 6.0.1 (Device B)
Separate Apple ID's
Separate iCloud accounts
iTunes accounts
Both people have our own iTunes accounts linked to their own device. All details are currently correct when checking Apple ID profiles.
MacbookPro
Both people have separate MacBook Pro logins and software is all up to date.
History
In the past, over a year ago, both iPhone devices were sync'd via the same iTunes and Macbook log in. (Not a good start I know) Both iPhones always had their own iTunes account for downloading apps and music etc. When I realised I was syncing application data from one iPhone to the other on my Macbook, I created two Macbook log ins. I deleted all applications on Device B that were transferred from Device A and also deleted the applications in Device B's iTunes account. It seemed that both devices finally had seperated, retained their own Apple ID logins, applications and Macbook user logins.
Device B recently tried to install an application that Device A also had.
The application installed onto Device B without an issue and there was no confusion with Device A having the same application. The application can be upgraded to provide additional functionality. When Device B requested this within the application to upgrade, the Apple ID of Device A suddenly appeared.
I checked that Device B was asked to INSTALL the primary basic version of the application rather than OPEN it, just incase the confusion started at this point. It definitely said INSTALL.
I thought the divorce was done and dusted in the past.
Why would Device B suddenly point Device A's Apple ID?
To troubleshoot, I connected Device B to iTunes on the MacBook with Device B's Macbook log in. When iTunes opened within the Apple ID of Device B ALL DEVICE A applications appeared and started to sync these applications to Device B! I am back to mixed accounts.
How can ITunes suddenly connect the Apple ID's of both accounts and then tell Device B it needs to install Device A's applications? They are separate Apple ID accounts, separate copyright, separate costs.
I know with iMatch that you can share the library with another device and when this occurs it locks the Apple ID of the primary iTunes account for 90 days on secondary device. We have never done this.
I'm 'Syncing' trying to work this one out, please help!

HT1414 i am in the process of getting my iphone4 unlocked from att to use it on straighttalk. why do i need to "back up" the iphone and all of this? i dont have an apple computer sooo, im a little confused on why i need to do this. can someone please help

Can someone please explain and help me? I am unlocking an iphone4 from at&t to use it on the straight talk network. They've confirmed my request to do this and I am now a little confused as to what to do next. They want me to back up the phone using itunes on either a MAC or PC. I do not have an aplle computer but I do have an acer. Sooo, can I use it to do this? Or do I even have to do this to unlock and switch the iphone4 over to a new network? If I do have to what can I do to do this because like I said I do not have a computer by apple? Can anybody walk me through what I need to do next please? I've been waiting to do this for a very long time and I now have the option to have an iphone and use it. Thanks to my awesome boyfriend who Gave me his old iphone when he swapped back to an android. Hahahaha! Please anybody!? Because I sooo don't know what I'm doing and really do not want to mess the phone Or the process up. Thanks to any and all who read this and help me! It is greatly appreciate it!

Install iTunes on your Acer and you can back up the iPhone. Or back it up to iCloud. If you do not back it up you can get it unlocked, but you will lose all of your content.
You can get iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes.
Even after unlocking I'm not sure it will work on Straight Talk, because last time I checked ST used Verizon as its carrier, and an AT&T iPhone 4 is not compatible with Verizon's network. You can probably use it on Net 10 or T-Mobile once it is unlocked.

Computers on small office network - names getting confused on iChat

We are using bonjour and iChat on the computers on a small airport network in our office as an instant messaging solution in our office - however, 2 of the computers (which are named differently) keep getting confused and both being called the same name.
I have done the fix where you go to System Prefs, Users & Groups and then set the address book card to that particular computer owner, restart the computer and then open iChat (using bonjour) - it saves the name but then my colleague becomes the same name as me on iChat - so we do the same thing to her computer (set address book card etc) and it changes her iChat name, but then also seems to override what I had set for mine previously.
Help!! What can I do to stop these 2 computers seemingly overriding each other? It doesn't happen with the other 4 computers sharing our network...

Hi,
In System Preferences > Sharing is the Name the Computer has.
This does play a part in any Bonjour Connection.
It is this name that appears in Shares in the Finders's Side bar.
Separate for that iChat and Messages that have the Bonjour Account Enabled broadcast the details from the My Card in the Address Book.
Issues can arise with some Server based Logins that create a Global Address book that changes the My Card.
You get similar difficulties on some DiskImage roll outs of updates and the like if the details of the Address Book are copied as well.
I am not sure what you mean by the "fix" in System Preferences > Users and Groups to change the My Card or the Computer's Name.
Yes you can click the Contact Card for that account and it will show you it in the Address Book and it should be th My Card.
Changing the My Card then does not alter which Card is associated with the Mac User Account.
There is no access to the Computer's Name

Sometimes deleting the account and then re-creating it can solve this issue
Write down all the information in accounts before doing this
Highlight the account on the left and click the minus button
Then click the plus button to add the new account and follow the prompts

I thinked the runned result should be below:
MyButton : 1
x = 5
y = 5
width = 200
height = 30
MyButton : 2
x = 5
y = 40
width = 200
height = 30But in fact, its result is here:
MyButton : 1
x = 5
y = 5
width = 200
height = 30
MyButton : 2
x = 0
y = 0
width = 292
height = 173I don't know why the result would like this? I have used add(...) method to add two component MyButton to the container MyContainer, But the bounds of the second component is not I want.
So this problem made me go into confuse.

Confused about Open Cursors :(

Hi all,
i need some clarification on this issue, i've read throught the documentation and i'm a bit confused.
I'm using 10.1.0.2
select sum(value)
from v$statname sn,
v$sesstat st,
v$session s
where sn.statistic# = st.statistic#
and st.sid = s.sid
and sn.name = 'session cursor cache count'
The result of the above query is 4926, meaning i have 4926 CLOSED cursors in the session cursor cache.
select count(1)
from v$open_cursor
The result of the above query is 16968, meaning i have 16968 cached cursors
So there are two distinct cursor Caches ?
now lets look at other statistic
select sum(value)
from v$statname sn,
v$sesstat st,
v$session s
where sn.statistic# = st.statistic#
and st.sid = s.sid
and sn.name = 'opened cursors current'
this one gives me 12212 , so i have 12212 opened cursors (NOT CACHED , REALLY OPENED CURSORS ...is this correct???)
I suspect that my applications are not closing resultsets (java build application, deployed in oracle application server, database connections in pooled connection) ... so i'm trying to help my developers to find the potencial bug in application.
How can i get the SQL from OPEN cursors ???
V$open_cursor gives me SQL from CLOSED cached cursors ...
Best Regards
Rui Madaleno

Hi,
>>this one gives me 12212 , so i have 12212 opened cursors (NOT CACHED , REALLY OPENED CURSORS ...is this correct???)
For your instance, yes because you use the sum(value) aggregate function. But I think that the best is get this value per session.
select count(1) from v$open_cursor
v$open_cursor shows cached cursors, not currently open cursors, by session. If you're wondering how many cursors a session has open, don't look in v$open_cursor. It shows the cursors in the session cursor cache for each session, not cursors that are actually open. To monitor open cursors, query v$sesstat where name='opened cursors current'. This will give the number of currently opened cursors, by session:
select a.value, s.username, s.sid, s.serial#
from v$sesstat a, v$statname b, v$session s
where a.statistic# = b.statistic# and s.sid=a.sid
and b.name = 'opened cursors current';
>>I suspect that my applications are not closing resultsets (java build application, deployed in oracle application server, database connections in pooled connection)
In this case, you need to monitor you application. If want, you can use the OEM Database Console and go to [Top Sessions | Session Details] link, or to use this SQL above.
By the way, do you are getting ORA-1000 errors ?
If so, set the OPEN_CURSORS parameter high enough that you never get an ORA-1000 during normal operations.

Table numbering confusion and how to link to tables in a book/document?

More questions :-(
Table numbering confusion...
I'm porting over (from MS Word) a document that has a bunch of tables in it.
The document currently looks something like this:
1 Major heading
1.1 Sub heading
text for that sub heading that refers to a table that follows (or may preceed) such as see Table 1-1 that follows
Table 1-1
Row 1/Column 1 content   Column 2 content   Column 3 content
Row 2/Column 1 content   etc....            etc.
Row 3                    etc.               etc.
1.2 Next sub heading
Text to follow that sub head that references Table 1-2 below...
Table 1-2

3 Major heading
3.1 Next sub heading
etc.
Hopefully that makes sense.
Currently it seems that the tables are numbered based on the chapter number with the chapter apparently being set at 2.
I need the tables to instead use numbering based on the heading (Titles) numbers, but can't seem to figure out how to get the numbers set for the tables as I would want them to be.
What do I need to do to make the table numbers reset based on the paragraph numbers (subchapters if you would refer to them that way...)
Thanks again!

What is the paragraph format of "Table 2-1" lines?
Table numbering is commonly controlled by two things:
1. Format > Paragraph > Paragraph Designer
[table title para name]
[ Numbering]
and
2. Format > Document > Numbering
The default in Frame is that tables have titles of para fmt "TableTitle", but tables can switch that off, and also be anchored to paragraphs (often Headings) of any arbitrary format name and numbering scheme.

Form processing using getParameter Names() and Values() Seriously confused

Hi all,
I have an HTML table containing multiple <INPUT name='Flows[]' ...> to create arrays. However, when I try to process the code in my servlet it gets ignored and no excpetions are thrown. I know I must be doing something wrong but for the life of me I cannot see what or where it is.
Enumeration <String> paramNames = request.getParameterNames() ;
double dFlows[] = null ;
while (paramNames.hasMoreElements())
     try
          String pName = paramNames.nextElement() ;
          System.out.println(String.format("Parameter Name : %s Length %d", pName, pName.length())) ;
          if (pName == "Flows[]")
               String pValues[] = request.getParameterValues(pName) ;
               nParams = pValues.length ;
               System.out.println(String.format("Found %s Flow Readings", nParams)) ;
               dFlows = new double[nParams] ;
               for (p = 0; p < nParams; p++)
                    dFlows[p] = Double.parseDouble(pValues[p]) ;
          else
               System.out.println(String.format("%s != Flows[]", pName)) ;
     catch (Exception e)
          e.printStackTrace(System.out) ;
}The output I get in the log file is :
Parameter Name : Flows[] : Length 7
Flows[] != Flows[]
If the log is to believed then the error is in the if (pName == "Flows[]") but the log proves this to be wrong!
Can anyone help me out with this, I really am seriously confused.

          if (pName == "Flows[]")
          if (pName.equals("Flows[]"))But why on earth are you looping through all the parameters when you already know the name? Use request.getParameter("Flows[]");

ACFS confusion...
