ASM support on Win2008-32bit OS

Hi,
Can anyone let me know whether ASM is supported on Win2008-32bit systems ? I am a getting the following error while trying to install an ASM database on Win2008-32bit OS.
>
Oracle Database 11gRelease 2 and later supports Oracle ASM only on 64bit Windows operating systems
>
I checked the certification page and was not able to find details regarding ASM support.

Hi Amith,
32-bit processors have address registers that are 32-bits wide (can address up to 4GB physical RAM).
The 4GB addressable space per process is divided into system and user space. By default, the system space is 2GB and the private user space is 2GB. Each user process shares the same 2GB System address space.
I do not recommend to use (AWE/PAE) to increase memory (more than 4GB) address since already exists Oracle and Windows 64bit.
The Oracle Restart must be configured to use ASM.
Memory Requirements for Grid Infrastructure Standalone
Oracle Grid Infrastructure requires at least 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM for installation.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e16773/oraclerestart.htm#CHDCEBFD
Memory Requirements for Database
Physical memory (RAM) 1 GB minimum
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e16773/reqs.htm#BCFDACBF
Configuring ASM with two Diskgroup you will use least 500M.
Creating a database with 1GB of memory (using memory target) you already will have memory problems.
Using this setup your database with 50 connections already be with out of memory problem.
Remember the private user space is 2G on Windows.
To avoid these types of problems that were already happening in version 11.1 on Windows 32bit, Oracle no longer supports ASM on Windows 32bit because the amount of services increased and there is a big limitation of memory on Windows 32bit.
This issue is very common on Windows 32bit. I have seen many database admins suffering with this problem on Windows 32bit.
*ORA-27102, OSD-00031 Unable To Extend Memory_max_target And Memory_target Past 2GB [ID 842881.1]*
To use all the features of Oracle 11.2 with Oracle Grid Infrastructure you will need more than 2Gbytes of RAM available to User address space.
On a Linux 32bit Kernel works in another way not limiting to 2GB RAM address space, for that Linux 32bit still supported Oracle Database + Grid Standalone.
I'm not suggesting you use Linux just showing the reason of Windows not being supported.

Is OBI 11g is supported on Vista 32bit?

I am sorry I should have addressed this in a new thread, so here it is
I am having problems configuring OBI-11g on Vista Enterprise - SP1 - 32bit. The installation, however is successful.
The link provided is for: Release 10.1.3.2.1 for Microsoft Windows (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10352_01/doc/bi.1013/e10270/toc.htm#CEGGGCEG
) and it seems Vista is not supported in 10.1.x
Can anybody advise if OBI 11g is supported on Vista 32bit and if they have it running successfuly?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have the following confirmation from Oracle:
'From the certification Matrix, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/bi-11gr1certmatrix-166168.xls#'Current System Certification'!A1
Only having OBIEE client is supported on Vista but not the server and that can be the reason that you are having issue. You need to choose from one of the supported Operating Systems for having the server installed.
As I am configuring OBIEE for server <-- it is currently recommended that vista will not support it.
Thanks.

ASM support BLOCK raw device?

Does ASM support for BLOCK raw device? or only there is support for CHARACTER raw device?
Or it is specific to UNIX platforms?
Thanks.

790066 wrote:
Does ASM support for BLOCK raw device? or only there is support for CHARACTER raw device?As I understand, ASM needs to be able to open a device using the direct I/O call kernel interface. Old style block devices do not have that, thus the need for raw char devices (on top of a block device) to provide the required direct I/O interface.
But raw devices have been depreciated by the Linux kernel and Oracle also has support notes stating the same. The kernel now supports opening a block device with the O_DIRECT flag set.
Offhand though, I do not see a problem using a device in ASM as long as ASM has access to it (permissions okay, discovery string set) and the device can be successfully opened via the I/O calls made by ASM.
You need to select the most appropriate device interface (if a device has multiple) for ASM to use. I'll expect that ASM notes/installation details from Oracle for that specific o/s will have the details needed to make that decision.
Or it is specific to UNIX platforms?Do not use anything else but Linux for many years now, so cannot comment on how this works/looks like on Unix flavours like Solaris and HP-UX and others.

Core2 instructions and asm support for C++ in Xcode

Hi,
I'm new to Xcode and have been attempting to compile some of my C++ code. I have some inline assembler which uses the lock instruction for atomic operations. I would like to compile for Core2. 1. to optimize the C++ and 2. because the compiler is failing when it hits the lock instruction as it's not a i386 instruction. I have tried adding this to "other c++ flags" -march=core2 -mtune=core2
but it complains about dodgy values... so i assume its the wrong place to do that.
thanks guys

I've been writing C++ for 15 years. What I dont understand is how Xcode hides the compiler options. From the GCC documentation I know what the options are, I just can't find the place to set it.
There is an "Intruction Scheduling" option but it only lists G5 modes and its a drop down, not editable.
The Instruction Scheduling option isn't used for 386.
To get to the compiler options, select the top-level project and Edit -> Get Info. In the Configurations drop down, select the appropriate build setting. If this code were only in release, for example, you would select "Deployment". You will probably want "All Configurations".
In the Collection drop down, select "GNU C/C++ Compiler 4.0". The options you want are in "Code Generation". If you can't find what you are looking for, you can always just type things into "Other C flags" or "Other C++ Flags". Sorry, they aren't in alphabetical order.
Now for the strange part. I put your function into the project I'm working on and it compiled fine. I had to make a few minor changes, here is my version:
void lockFunction(long threadId) {
long owner = 1;
long count = 1;
__asm {
mov eax, threadId
mov edx, eax // edx and eax identicle for compare
lock cmpxchg owner, edx // ATOMIC compare the thread id to the lock owner
jz incrementLock // if they are not equal, lock execution until the lock owner is reset
waitLock:
xor eax, eax // zero out EAX to use for comparison to the lock owner
lock cmpxchg owner, edx // ATOMIC replace the lock owner with the thread id when the lock owner is zero
jnz waitLock // if the previous value of the lock owner is non-zero, keep waiting
incrementLock:
inc count // increment the lock counter
I'm no expert on 386 assembly, so I can't help with that. However, I think your problem is on a different level. In Collections, check the Architectures setting. Make sure it is only i386. That is the only thing I can think of.

Oracle Linux 6.1 asm packages - oracleasm and oracleasmlib for OEL 6.1 ???

Hello everyone
I am not ULN subscriber, I am trying to learn Oracle ASM/RAC at work.
I am running OEL 6.1 (uname -rm output is: 2.6.32-100.34.1.el6uek.x86_64)
I am looking for two ASM support libraries which are compatible with above Oracle Linux 6.1 X64
Specifically this article refers to 2 packages I need for ASM support:
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/OracleDB11gR2RACInstallationOnOEL5UsingVirtualBox.php
•oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm -- I need this one
•oracleasm-support-2.1.3-1.el5.x86_64.rpm -- this package is now already installed on OEL 6.1 so I dont need this one for OEL 6.1
•oracleasm-2.6.18-164.el5-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm -- I need this one
Can anyone direct me to a download link for the above two packages? Even if its from RHEL6.1 as long as it works?
Or does it mean that I must pay Oracle in order to be able to get these packages in order to learn ASM at home ??
Why would Oracle allow us to use their RDBMS/RAC/ASM/Linux software at home learning for free and not supply the above two packages??
thanks

Keep in mind that Database is NOT certified on Oracle Linux 6 anyway, so it is challenging to install. The very article you link to uses Oracle Linux 5. It also links to these very same RPMs. If you follow the article more carefully, you won't have any issues.

Identify files in ASM not known to DB

I have inherited DBA responsibilities for an old Production system that has two physical stand-by systems. All three DBs use ASM (10.1.0.4) and each each ASM supports only one DB. While gathering space usage numbers to estimate when the underlying SAN storage systems would be maxed out, I discovered that one physical stand-by DB (aka Standby D) showed ASM using more storage space than either the other stand-by database or production.
In short, there are more files on the Standby D ASM than the other stand-by ASM.
If I go into the database and query v$datafile_header (the DB is applying archive logs so I did not stop the managed recovery process just to open the DB for dba_data_files access) I see entries such as
+GROUP15K/scrtvprd/datafile/outln.341.727897397
+GROUP15K/scrtvprd/datafile/system.330.727882901
When I look in ASM as shown by this standard query
select concat('+'||gname, sys_connect_by_path(aname, '/')) full_alias_path,
       system_created, alias_directory, file_type
from ( select b.name gname, a.parent_index pindex, a.name aname,
              a.reference_index rindex , a.system_created, a.alias_directory,
              c.type file_type
       from v$asm_alias a, v$asm_diskgroup b, v$asm_file c
       where a.group_number = b.group_number
             and a.group_number = c.group_number(+)
             and a.file_number = c.file_number(+)
             and a.file_incarnation = c.incarnation(+)
where alias_directory = 'N'
start with (mod(pindex, power(2, 24))) = 0
            and rindex in
                ( select a.reference_index
                  from v$asm_alias a, v$asm_diskgroup b
                  where a.group_number = b.group_number
                        and (mod(a.parent_index, power(2, 24))) = 0
                        and a.name = '&DATABASENAME'
connect by prior rindex = pindex;It shows full_alias_paths as
=+GROUP15K/scrtvprd/DATAFILE/OUTLN.285.727841595 -- not shown above
=+GROUP15K/scrtvprd/DATAFILE/outln.341.727897397
=+GROUP15K/scrtvprd/DATAFILE/SYSTEM.318.727827977 -- not shown above
=+GROUP15K/scrtvprd/DATAFILE/system.330.727882901
ASM shows 112 files in the system, but the DB only shows 70 via the above two methods.
My thought is the RMAN rebuild of the Standby D system several years ago failed and the previous DBA missed all the data file clean-up following that failure.
Question:
Besides using my eyeballs to match up the names to see what is in use and not, is there another way to get Oracle to tell me this? It seems the control file is the only object that translates between what the ASM v$asm views show and the database v$ views show, but I wanted a second opinion to see what others know.
My goal is to delete the extra ASM files that the DB does not know about to free up 500+ GB of disk space.

My recommendation is that you create a set of files showing what you see and upload them to MyOracleSupport as part of an SR.
Critically important to understanding what you can and can not touch is knowing last accessed/changed dates. Dynamic performance views such as:
gv$asm_disk
gv$asm_disk_stat
gv$asm_file
desc gv$asm_filesystem
Should be part of your analysis.
Keep in mind there may be other databases, even old ones that have been shut down, that have ASM storage.

Sapinst under RAC 11.2 using ACFS and ASM

Hi all,
we are actually doing some installationtests (BankingService-Netweaver 7.02) ) on a 2Node-RAC-Cluster with the actual sapinst based on OEL 5.5, Oragrid 11.2.0.2 and OracleBin 11.2.0.2.
We doing a HA-Installation and we put all "DB-related" files in ASM.
We put all failovercritical Filesystems on ACFS.
We are no ASM-mirroring (but SAN-based)
Of course we know that this combination is not (yet) SAP-certified - but it works fine.
We are using different Oracle-Users" as grid-ower (oragrid) and "DB-owner" (standard: ora<sid>).
We faced some privilege-problems regarding the cluster-ressources for ora<sid> -> apart from that the installations run without any issues.
As sapinst asked for the sapdata-directories, we answered with the ASM-structure.
So sapinst creates the +ASM-dierectories (if he what to...) and puts the coresponding create_sql-commands towards the DB, which where corectly interpreted against ASM.
So here some questions:
does anybody know, when there will be a sapinst with complete ASM-support?
should we use just one oracle-user?
is there a naming-standard for the RAC-instances?
are there brtools availbale with complete ASM-support?
Thanks and Regards
Thomas

Hi Sebastian,
I knew this presentation and I'm waiting for 7.03...
This is the newest sapinst, I can find under NW7.0:
SAPinst build information:
abi version : 722
make variant: 720_REL
build : 1201786
compile time: Nov 5 2010 02:07:45
Do you think, this is already the right one?
Thanks

Doubt with raw partition ASM

Hi Gurus,
Have a doubt regarding the raw partitions being used in ASM.
1.Is raw partition being used only applicable to linux platform , or can it be done on other plaform as well
2.Is it correct if I say if a diskgroup is created with single raw disk with external redundancy , we are saying the oracle need not do the redundancy and we have set up redundancy for the raw partition at lus/os level.
3.what in general is better asmlib/raw partition for management of ASM.
Thanks
Atul

Hi,
1.Is raw partition being used only applicable to linux platform , or can it be done on other plaform as well.
==>> Raw partition is not supported 11G onwards .
     On linux ASM support both types of devices ,block and character.
For other unix version,ASM supports character devices.
2.Is it correct if I say if a diskgroup is created with single raw disk with external redundancy ,
we are saying the oracle need not do the redundancy and we have set up redundancy for the raw partition at lus/os level.
==>> Yes,in case of external redundancy ASM does not do mirroring .So,it depends upon OS level redundancy.
     if you use normal redundancy ,ASM will do mirroring alongwith stripping at ASM level.
3.what in general is better asmlib/raw partition for management of ASM.
===>> ASMlib devices are created upon partitioned device .
      And ASM will use ASMlib API to access those devices and do IOs.
   For Raw partition ASM will use system calls directly to access those devices.
Advantages of ASMlib,
+ ASMlib will keep device persistency across reboot
+ Use ASMlib API for processing IOs in batches
-- This give slightly better performance .
If you use UDEV rules ,then it will give device persistency across reboot ,but use
system calls for IOs directly.
For raw partitions ,you need to maintain rawservices also.
and it limits you to have 256 devices .
But ASM can use upto first 10000 disks and maximum size can be of 2Tb in non-exadata.
With these limitation and advantages,it is better to use ,
Udev rules and ASMlib compared to raw ...
    while comparing ASMlib with Udev ,they are almost same,with ASMlib have slight advantage.

Shakil,
I had a similar issue on Centos 5. You need the asm-support package, asmlib package and oracleasm-<your kernel version>.i686.rpm. These are what I have for my boc (x86 Centos 5):
Important! : You need to install the support package 1st to resolve your dependencies for the other packages.

Satellite L550-32bit vs 64 bit...

hi folks,
I just purchased a Satellite-L550 on labor day. Received it today. In playing around with it, I noticed that it has vista home premium x64 on it...I didnt notice this when I purchased it (I chose the ST5702 option instead of the ST5701 option).
Turns out, I need this computer to be able to work from home when necessary...this requires use of a Cisco Systems VPN Client...My understanding is that none of these are supported in x64 (vista, xp, etc) yet, and my company only has support for 32 bit windows...
So I would like to reformat my computer and install Vista Ultimate (32 bit) on my machine so that I can run the vpn client...I have Vista Ultimate already, and I have generated the applications and drivers dvd. I am concerned (since I dont know much about 32 vs 64) that some of the hardware in this st5702 (L550) will not be compatible and I will have problems getting everything working again...
Does anyone know if this will be possible or not? Or have any other ideas about what I should do? Is contacting Toshiba even remotely worth my time?
thanks for any assistance you can provide...

Any hardware that supports Vista 64bit will be fully supported under Vista 32bit so you are good to go there. The opposite is not true though. Not all hardware that is supported by 32bit is supported by 64bit. You should have no problems performing this with the understanding that you will need to wipe the hard drive first then do a clean install of Vista 32 (you can't do an in place upgrade). The only hardware change that you will notice is that you will only see and be able to use between 3.0 and 3.5gb of the 4 gig of ram that is installed under Vista 32 (it's a limitation of a 32bit Operating System).
From what I can tell from looking at the two systems specs the main difference between the two hardware wise is the 5702 has 4gig of ram vs 3gig on the 5701 and the 5702 has a Higher End ATI Graphics Chipset vs the 5701's middle of the road at best Intel Graphics Chipset so you actually have a better laptop hardware wise.
If you wanted to do so and have enough hard disk space to spare you could install Vista Ultimate 32 to a different partition and have both your existing Vista 64 and the new Vista Ult 32 available to use. See this guide but substitute Vista 64 for Vista already installed and Vista 32 for Windows 7.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

Upgrade RHEL kernel requires what new ASM pieces?

I'm running RAC 10.2.0.4 on RHEL 5.3 (2.6.18-53.el5), and looking to update the OS to 5.6 (2.6.18-238.9.1.el5). I'm using ASM for data, and raw for voting and OCR.
....# rpm -qa|grep oracl
....oracleasmlib-2.0.3-1.el5
....oracleasm-2.6.18-53.el5-2.0.4-1.el5
....oracleasm-support-2.1.0-1.el5
I have these ready to go:

....oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
....oracleasm-support-2.1.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
Here's my plan. Please advise:
a) Stop all oracle procs on node1: DBMS, CRS
b) yum update (I don't expect it to touch the oracle stuff, as I don't have oracle repos)
c) yum (or rpm) the packages listed above (do I need to uninstall old asmlib or asm-support?)
d) 'relink all' for CRS home, ASM home, DBMS home
e) Stop all oracle on node2.
f) Start all oracle on node1.
g) Repeat on node2
Does this look viable?

Hi,
your installation looks like a 32-bit O/S (2.6.18-53.el), so upgrading to 5.6. is o.k., but your prepared asmlib won't work.
This: oracleasm-2.6.18-238.9.1.el5-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm is 64bit. Please make sure that you get oracleasm-2.6.18-238.9.1.el5-2.0.5-1.el5.i686.rpm.
Also these
oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
oracleasm-support-2.1.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
are 64-bit. So look for the 32-bit ones.
No regarding the upgrade: Oracle supports rolling O/S upgrade, so you can do one node after the other, so if you want less downtime, you can flip e) and f). So start first node first, wait till everything is online, then stop node 1.
But your suggested way will work as well.
Furthermore if looking for less downtime, "move" the services of the RAC database to the second node first, in that case you will have less connections on the first node (less interruptions for users).
But that is optional....

Sebastian

DB+ASM with linux clustering

Dear All,
We are going to install Oracle single instance 11.2.0.3 with ASM, on linux clustering. Can anyone through some light on that. I searched in google and could not able to find good doc.
Can oracle binaries can be shared (with shared disk) between two servers and creating two listener will help ? (if node1 fails, db can be accessed by node2 listener).
Regards,
Anand.

AnandKumar wrote:
Is it possible to share the oracle binaries (i.e installing oracle in one server only) so that after failover we access the both the binaries and ASM data..Yes. Install the ORACLE_HOME on a clustered file system that can be mounted and used by another server. ASM supports ACFS. There are also OCFS and GFS. Never done this myself, but the Oracle installation docs cover this as far as I know.
Keep in mind though that the o/s hooks (such as an +/etc/inittab+ setting for the OHASD daemon) will not be included on a server that mounts and uses the cluster file system, on which an actual Oracle install/setup was not done. So it is not a mere matter of installing onto a clustered file system on one server and expect that to work when mounted by another server.

Upgrading clusterware and RAC database including ASM

Hi All,
I have a 3 node RAC database with ASM running on RHEL4(32bit). current version is 10.2.0.1. I want to upgrade clusterware, database and ASM to 10.2.0.4.
Please let me know the patch number for this upgradation.
At the time of googling i found that 1st we have to upgrade 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3 then we can upgrade it to 10.2.0.4. Is it true?
Thanks

You are absolutely correct. Database should be upgraded at last. I may be wrong regarding upgrading of ASM. but what my thought is saying it should be upgraded or it may upgrade when we will upgrade our database. So please think little bit on it. ASM has its own instance. we are upgrading clusterware and database. why we are not upgrading our ASM. Then what should be the method to upgrade ASM.
Please correct me in i am wrong.

2003 32bit - 2012 64bit path

Hi - I have a windows server 2003 32 physical server that houses an in-house application and is on our corporate domain, and I'd like to attempt doing an upgrade to the current windows server 2012 64bit R2
The physical box most likely has a CPU that won't support 64bit OS, so I'm thinking to virtualize it in vmware and perform the upgrade that way, leaving the physical box safe from upgrade destruction.
I guess I had 2 questions,
1) when something becomes virtualized can you change the bit-ness of the OS? I mean, I suppose it would still be 2003 32bit that exists on the VM, but the fact that the VM is housed on an esx server that clearly can handle 64bit architecture am I safe to
assume I can install 64bit OS on the VM? Is this even a viable option?
2) Can you even do a straight upgrade from 2003 32 bit to 2012 R2 64 bit? This probably should have been the first question.
Thanks in advance - my first post please let me know if this is the wrong place to ask.

Hi - I have a windows server 2003 32 physical server that houses an in-house application and is
on our corporate domain, and I'd like to attempt doing an upgrade to the current windows server 2012 64bit R2
In-place upgrade is not supported from a 32bit OS to a 64bit one.
You will need to install a new server running Windows Server 2012 R2 and then proceed with a migration. Once done, you can decommission your old server.

Hello
Unfortunately your notebook model is not supported for Win7 32bit but I have checked notebook specification and your Satellite has Mobile Intel HM55 Express Chipset.
The same chipset has Tecra A11 and is supported for Win7 32bit so you can install THIS driver.

ASM support on Win2008-32bit OS
