Anyone actually implement 10g AWR and ASM?

in 9i and before, we use statspack to monitor performance. in 10g, it provides automatic workload repository. Does anyone use it and get rid of statspack?
Moreover, anyone implement automatic storage management? such as create diskgroup dg1 normal redunduncy. Does it lower the performance?
thanks

hi
i used both feature of 10g just for testing purpose on test database..
yes these feature gives little bit effect on performance.
asm instance also use 120m memory from ram.
This is the not right time to use these feature in production database.
and i don't think that 10g rel 1 is suitable for prod database.
and in AWR it also provide information at OS level. like

  • Solaris 10 and Hitachi LUN mapping with Oracle 10g RAC and ASM?

    Hi all,
    I am working on an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM installation with Sun E6900 servers attached to a Hitachi SAN for shared storage with Sun Solaris 10 as the server OS. We are using Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) RAC clusterware
    for the clustering software and raw devices for shared storage and Veritas VxFs 4.1 filesystem.
    My question is this:
    How do I map the raw devices and LUNs on the Hitachi SAN to Solaris 10 OS and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
    I am aware that with an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM instance, one needs to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter file to set the asm_diskstring setting to recognize the LUNs that are presented to the host.
    I know that Sun Solaris 10 uses /dev/rdsk/CwTxDySz naming convention at the OS level for disks. However, how would I map this to Oracle 10g ASM settings?
    I cannot find this critical piece of information ANYWHERE!!!!
    Thanks for your help!

    You don't seem to state categorically that you are using Solaris Cluster, so I'll assume it since this is mainly a forum about Solaris Cluster (and IMHO, Solaris Cluster with Clusterware is better than Clusterware on its own).
    Clusterware has to see the same device names from all cluster nodes. This is why Solaris Cluster (SC) is a positive benefit over Clusterware because SC provides an automatically managed, consistent name space. Clusterware on its own forces you to manage either the symbolic links (or worse mknods) to create a consistent namespace!
    So, given the SC consistent namespace you simple add the raw devices into the ASM configuration, i.e. /dev/did/rdsk/dXsY. If you are using Solaris Volume Manager, you would use /dev/md/<setname>/rdsk/dXXX and if you were using CVM/VxVM you would use /dev/vx/rdsk/<dg_name>/<dev_name>.
    Of course, if you genuinely are using Clusterware on its own, then you have somewhat of a management issue! ... time to think about installing SC?

    Hello,
    there's no extra RAC software package, but the option is only offered, if one of the supported cluster layers for the respective OS has been installed before.
    10.1.0.3 looks like a complete redesign, but anyway it is a patch, you have to install 10.1.0.2 first.

    Are there specific roles and privileges are required for one to run AWR and ASH reports for users who don't have DBA roles? If so, I would like to know about them.

    I think sysdba privilege need to run AWR report.
    Also check, how privilege is granted to PERFSTAT user in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/spcuser.sql, you might get some clue!!!

  • Implementing Forms look and feel into oracle 10g

    hello, im using oracle 10.1.2.0.2
    i've been trying to implement this look and feel project hours ago here are the steps that i followed:
    # Copy the corresponding JAR file to your /forms/java directory. [copied it to C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\java\ and renamed it to laf.jar like mentioned in http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=693024 but copied also laf_1012.jar  ]
    # Update your /forms/server/formsweb.cfg file.
    As it needs the Sun Java Plug-in instead of the Oracle JInitiator, you have to create a special section that uses the Sun Plug-in.
    You also need to add the corresponding JAR file to the archive tag (not the archive_jini). [modified it to archive=frmall.jar,laf.jar, laf_1012.jar, i didnt know what to do with the Sun Java Plug-in but when i debug and run the oracle there is an icon that shows the java icon launched]
    # Copy the forms.css file somewhere on your disk (by default, it is searched in the C:/ root directory). [done and i've put it in c:\]
    # Compile the laf.pll PL/SQL library, then copy the pll.plx to one of the directories pointed by the FORMS_PATH variable.
    *i've put the laf.pll in my C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms as shown in the FORMS_PATH of the default.env
    *tried to open the laf.pll from the oracle froms and reports, choosed Program -> Compile PL/SQL -> All, but errors like PKG_DB_LAF_LOV.PREPARE must be declared ...
    *tried to compile it using f60gen module=laf.pll userid=Administrator/pass module_type=LIBRARY output_file=laf.plx batch=yes compile_all=SPECIAL but the f60gen is no where to be found
    *i tried to replace f60gen by envshell.cmd from the $APPL_TOP but i cant find any environment variable called $APPL_TOP, i even searched the whole hard disk for envshell.cmd and couldnt find anything
    Please help as this is the final step of implementation, waiting any response asap!

  • RAID 10 and ASM

    HI
    Can someone give the difference between RAID 10 and ASM
    From my understanding both is doing stripping of data.
    If we are implementing RAID 10 ,then do we need to implement ASM (if yes what is the advantage)
    Thanks

    user10394804 wrote:
    Can someone give the difference between RAID 10 and ASMWhat is the difference between a car and the road? ASM=vehicle. RAID=road.
    In other words, ASM is a Storage (or Volume) Manager System that runs on different RAID implementations. The RAID implementation can be at the actual storage layer (hardware RAID).. in which case RAID is external to ASM. Or ASM can itself be used to implement RAID to run on (software RAID).
    From my understanding both is doing stripping of data.ASM automatically stripes data across disks (e.g. RAID10 disks) in a diskgroup. RAID10 is a combination of striping and mirroring. So yes, both use striping - but ASM != RAID10. These are 2 very different layers in the storage tier.
    If we are implementing RAID 10 ,then do we need to implement ASM (if yes what is the advantage)Yes. ASM manages the storage layer for you. It can perform dynamic load balancing. With ASM 11r2, there are even more features that are introduced that makes ASM a very important part in tying the storage layer effectively and efficiently with the o/s layer and the database layer.
    Oracle specifically recommends using ASM for RAC.

  • Patching Strategy for CRS and ASM homes

    I'm fairly new to RAC/ASM and haven't performed any patch set upgrades yet. Back in the simple days when I wanted to apply a patch set to a database, say from 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.5, I would create a brand new Oracle home ahead of time and apply the patch set to it. I'd name my homes like this:
    /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0.4/db1
    /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0.5/db1
    During the maintenance window I would change /etc/oratab to point the database to the new 10.2.0.5 and complete the database upgrade scripts. The advantages of this strategy:
    1 - Less risk installing software as nothing uses the new home yet. If something goes wrong in the install, no big deal. Research the problem and try again without being under the stress of a defined maintenance window.
    2 - No need to backup old home for back-out purposes.
    3 - Less time required for database to be down during actual patch window since Oracle Installer does not need to run.
    Now with CRS and ASM, is there a way to pre-stage a new home for those, but not have them "active" to the node until later during the maintenance window?
    For ASM, it seems like it would be possible to treat the same way as database and simply update ASM SID in /etc/oratab
    +ASM1:/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0.5/asm1
    but I'm not totally confident in that as I'm afraid the CRS home may already have references to the ASM home in the cluster registry.
    For CRS, it seems like the home is pretty well hard-wired into the node startup scripts and installing a brand new CRS home will probably disrupt the running CRS home.
    Any thoughts about this?

    Starting with 11.2 for Grid Infrastructure only "out-of-place" patchset upgrades are supported.

    Any thoughts about this?As of 11gR2 the ASM is part of the Grid Infrastructure, therefore it is running from the same home and not recommended to separate them. (although you can do that)
    By the way, what is your upgrade path? It could be easier to answer your questions if we knew that as there has been a quite a few enhancements and changes in the upgrade/patching process from 10g to 11g. (even between 11gR1 and 11gR2)

  • Does managing Oracle 10g RAC with ASM require full root access?

    We currently have three entirely separate support areas, Unix, Storage and DBA. We're now considering using Oracle 10g RAC with ASM and as part of the assessment trying to work out if we can still draw similar support boundaries. I know that installing RAC and configuring ASM requires root access but will DBA continue to need root access to manage & support RAC? If so, does anyone know if the commands they need can be RBAC'd or if we just need to share root access going forwards. I've had a look at a number of docs including http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/rac.102/b14197/toc.htm. which is fairly informative but none of them seem to mention the requirement for root access on Solaris. I'm guessing they just assume that it's available, but that's not generally the case in our environment.
    All advice / info welcome!

    I would have thought that the only reason you would need root access once RAC and ASM had been set up would be to add more disks to the ASM configuration. This would be needed to change the ownership on the raw LUNs or to make additions to metasets (SVM/Oban) or diskgroups (VxVM/CVM). Beyond that, I can't imagine needing root access.
    I'm sure others will chime in if they can think of other reasons!

  • Guidelines for SGA and PGA tuning for 10gR2 RAC and ASM ?

    I am looking for tuning information on SGA and PGA tuning for Oracle 10g (10.2) RAC and ASM for a 4TB OLTP and DSS mixed environment on Solaris 10 platform.

    We are running Solaris 10 SPARC 64 bit with Oracle 10gR2 RAC Enterprise Edition and ASM on Sun servers with 32GB of RAM for memory for a 4TB OLTP database.
    It is in design phase so I do not have an existing AWR or Statspack report yet. Is there a best practices guideline on how to size parameters for the SGA (ie: shared_pool_size, etc) and PGA for this environment from Oracle?

  • User-managed backups of a 10g DB using ASM

    Is it possible to do user-managed backups of a 10g database which is using ASM?
    When I run the following SQL command
    SELECT NAME FROM v$datafile;
    It returns
    +DBDATA/db_test/datafile/system.256.617633575
    +DBDATA/db_test/datafile/users.259.617633757
    The ASM is setup in 'normal redundency' across 2 partitions, both of which are not formatted.
    If there is anyone who has done user-mangaged backups on a 10g DB using ASM who could provide an insight I would be greatful.
    Basically what I would like to know is how do I access the datafiles, so I can back them up to a location of my choosing?

    I think it's a good product, we use it for many years now. A big advantage is Backtrack automates not only backups (that do all products), it also provides automatic restore/recovery in many cases (not in all!). That means the product detects what is wrong with the database and automatically performs all necessary steps to bring back the database to working. In case of trouble that's good for operators by night and also good for the DBA, who does not need to come.
    Disadvantage (may be true for all 3rd party products) Backtrack is always behind Oracle's newest technology, so it took some time to support ASM and it's still not a full support.
    There's no problem with online backups, Backtrack uses the traditional way (ALTER TABLESPACE BEGIN BACKUP .... END BACKUP), they don't use RMAN technology in the background.
    We use both in our company, Backtrack and RMAN. Besides the technical point of view, there's also a license issue. Backtrack's license fee is due to amount of data, the larger your databases the larger the fee.

  • Has anyone actually got the Green Screen feature to work?

    Has anyone actually got the Green Screen feature to work? I've been trying for about 8 hours, absolutely no success. I have followed the iMovie Help instructions and the examples on the internet, over and over again. I've tried every imaginable variation on the instructions. Nothing from my green movie shows up. The green in my video is pure green - 100% green, 0% red and 0% blue. Yet the non-green images in the video aren't getting displayed at all. Several other people have mentioned a similar problem on these forums and they are all "unanswered". Is that because this is an unsolvable problem? Is it an iMovie bug? Sigh. I'm a big fan of Apple but stuff like this gives them a bad name.

    After several more hours of diagnosis I have identified some conditions which can make Green Screen slightly work (but not much). The condition is as follows. The green screen clip must be carefully dropped at the beginning of a video clip, such that at least the first two seconds of the green screen clip (no less, but no more or the clip will become attached to the previous clip and then it's broken again) are displayed over the PREVIOUS video clip. But the green screen will not work on the previous clip, only on the second clip. So you will always lose the first two seconds of the green screen video. It took me a lot of experimenting to discover this anomaly.
    Clearly this is a bug, but since not all users on the internet experience this bug, (some online videos shows that Green Screen actually works as advertised) it's most likely related to the video card driver. My video card is an ATI 4870. If you have such a card, there's probably no hope that you can get this feature to work unless Apple fixes the driver or possibly the iMovie application, or you use my tricky workaround.

Maybe you are looking for
