[Blog] Monitoring WebLogic J2EE on VMware with VMware vCenter Operations (vCOps)

Monitoring WebLogic J2EE on VMware with VMware vCenter Operations
The Blue Medora vC Ops Management Pack for Oracle OEM was updated in early May (2014) to include enhanced support for Oracle WebLogic J2EE integration. All of the Oracle EM target types for WebLogic related components including WebLogic Server, J2EE Application Deployments, Oracle HTTP Server, as well as WebLogic Cluster are now available to be ingested into VMware vC Ops Enterprise Edition.
With the data available within these new vC Ops 'Resource Kinds', you have the ability to create WebLogic on VMware relationship views, WebLogic on VMware mashup dashboards, as well as leverage vC Ops anomaly detection and predictive analytics on your WebLogic J2EE landscape. Below are a number of example dashboards that were easily created using the WebLogic data available within the Management Pack.
The first dashboard, the WebLogic on VMware Relationship View -- helps you visualize your WebLogic environment running on VMware all the way down to the VMware VM, ESX, and even Datastore level. This can useful for diagnosing critical J2EE applications running within the vSphere environment -- allowing you to quickly discern whether a problem exists in the Oracle WebLogic layer or one of the VMware virtualization layers.

Can you point me to recommendations on installing Hyperic on VMware virtual appliances?
Is it as simple as treating the appliance as a Linux VM during installation? Can vSphere be used to deploy Hyperic to a VMware appliance like vRA (non-IAAS)?
Thanks,

PHP with the OCI8 extension using "DRCP" connection pooling will handle many, many users. We bench-marked 20,000 concurrent users on a commodity machine: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/php/whatsnew/php-scalability-ha-twp-128842.pdf
Instead of WAMP you might want something like Zend Server, which has comes in unsupported (aka free) & supported flavors (disclaimer: Zend is a partner of Oracle): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/php/zend-server-096314.html
You can install PHP on iAS: e.g https://blogs.oracle.com/opal/entry/building_php_53_with_oracle_ht
If you need extreme scalability you could use Oracle Tuxedo, which has support for PHP (and Python & Ruby): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/tuxedo/tuxedo-dynamic-langs-twp-401471.pdf
There are too many factors to declare outright that one language is faster than another. It would depend on factors like whether you use an application framework, how efficiently you tune caches etc.
Overall, your choice should be based on the in-house skill set you have.
Whatever you choose, I'd recommend putting most business logic (especially numeric and date calculations) in PL/SQL procedures. This will give you flexibility to call that logic from any language or service in the future. You can also then keep any web or mobile UI lightweight and fast.

Weblogic on a VMware

Does Oracle support Weblogic on a VMware virtualized platform. And also, how the licensing will be. Will it be for the hardware configured for the Virtual Machine, or do we need to give the license according to the host hardware.
Thanks

Will it be for the hardware configured for the Virtual Machine, or do we need to give the license according to the host hardware.Oracle's support position for products running on VMware is outlined in My Oracle Support Article 249212.1:
Oracle has not certified any of its products on VMware virtualized environments. Oracle Support will assist customers running Oracle products on VMware in the following manner: Oracle will only provide support for issues that either are known to occur on the native OS, or can be demonstrated not to be as a result of running on VMware. If a problem is a known Oracle issue, Oracle support will recommend the appropriate solution on the native OS. If that solution does not work in the VMware virtualized environment, the customer will be referred to VMware for support. When the customer can demonstrate that the Oracle solution does not work when running on the native OS, Oracle will resume support, including logging a bug with Oracle Development for investigation if required.
If the problem is determined not to be a known Oracle issue, we will refer the customer to VMware for support. When the customer can demonstrate that the issue occurs when running on the native OS, Oracle will resume support, including logging a bug with Oracle Development for investigation if required.
NOTE: Oracle has not certified any of its products on VMware. For Oracle RAC, Oracle will only accept Service Requests as described in this note on Oracle RAC 11.2.0.2 and later releases.Also, VMware is not regarded as a hard partition, so you would have to license the entire physical hardware running the VM. Oracle's position on licensing and virtualization can be found here:

VMWare vCenter Server SQL Licensing

I understand fully the difference between SQL user and core licensing. Though I'm not sure how to apply SQL licensing to VMWare vCenter server.
vCenter server is a management utility for VMWare that requires SQL. I have 20 users log into vCenter to make VM changes.
The application logs server events to SQL. The VM settings/files themself that end users log into are stored on disk.
Servers or their settings do not use SQL. The server that monitors the environment is what writes to SQL.
Can I get away with just buying 20 user licenses for the 20 that log into the vCenter server or do I need to license every user that access servers that are on VMWare?

Hello,
This is a community forum for technical questions & issues.
For question regarding pricing / licensing please contact a Microsoft sales partner or licensing expert.
Call (1-800-426-9400), Monday through Friday, 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM PST to speak directly to Microsoft licensing specialist.

Cannot quit Visual FoxPro (Windows Terminal Server 2008 + Citrix XenApp 5 + VMWare vCenter 5.1)

Hi everybody:
This is not the typical question about this error, because the problem here is not about how to quit (CLEAR EVENTS then QUIT). The really and weird problem is that our application do no execute the error trapping routines (Try/Catch and ON ERROR) and tries
to directly Quit.
I have never seen something like this before, error trapping routines not executed.
I try to explain the problem better:
- The user click on the Citrix icon of our App
- Citrix shows the executed processes (establishing connection, applying user config, loading profile, etc)
- The Application (VFP 9 SP2) is started and in any moment, while loading, occurs an error that is not handled by error handlers, and it executes a "kind" of a Quit command, that we detect because have a ON SHUTDOWN to catch it, then the App shut
down and the user must click the Citrix icon and start all over again, up to 7 times, when the App really load and work.
- I think that it is useful to make clear that no QUIT command is really causing this, just the behaviour of the QUIT when an error occurs, but just while loading. If the App get completely loeaded, then everything works as expected
Infraestructure:
- Windows Terminal Server 2008 + Citrix XenApp 5 + VMWare vCenter 5.1
- There are up to 50 concurrent users max in every virtualized server
- More than 10 GB of free disk space / Up to 4 GB ram
- RAM Memory is never used to the max
- CPU (Intel Xeon) is never used to the max (up to 90% in some cases)
- Data (DBFs for temporal work) ar on local drive, not over network (to avoid network known problems with smb2-3)
- There are connection to a Oracle 11 database for permanently storing the data
About the errors:
- They are not always the same or in the same place. In example, in one execution could fail the query of SET("Printer",2), in other execution could fail a SET PROCEDURE TO xxx ADDITIVE (sometimes already loaded), in other could fail a "DO
WHILE .T." in a init event.... completely crazy, and in all cases the errors are not thrown, not a single error code, the App just try to quit, as if ALT+F4 where pressed.
- All this does not happen allways to everyone, but happens many times in the day to many many users as to be worried
- The same user can have this error many times a day, but not allways
- Some of the problems started when migrating to Windows Terminal Server 2008, but didn't notice nothing special in the beginning, but a year later (last 2014) problems tend to go worse
Tried solutions:
- For the "SET PROCEDURE TO xxx ADDITIVE" error, a "IF xxx $ SET('PROCEDURE')" check was added
- The "SET('Printer',2)" check was moved out of initialization code, so it executes when user want to print the first time. In this case was neccesary to talk with IT guys to map a default printer after the App runs, and not in background, as it
was.
- Other checks and modifications was made to minimize posibility of errors
- Adding a timeout of 5 secs in the start of the program, to force a wait
- Restart of virtual servers (not the phisical) every 3 weeks
What I suspect:
- Some Microsoft optimization (memory?, process execution?) in WTS-2008 may interfere?
- Some VMWare memory management may interfere with WTS-2008?
- Some Citrix management may interfere with both?
- Server degradation because of day to day use
Results until now:
- Apparently, adding the timeout to force 5 secs delay and the restart of the server have made a notable enhancement in App start and running
with far fewer
errors
Has
this happened to anyone?
Thanks! o_O

I never had this type of problems, but somewhat similar start up problems. I'd say it indicates resource problems. Low RAM can cause many unpredictable things. In my case loading much data at the begin of an application caused out of memory errors, which
were reported and logged normally, though.
I made a small tool using Windows API functions GetPerformanceInfo and GetProcessMemoryInfo, you'll find declaration and usage like usual at the News2News site. It's a bit lengthy and cluttered, but pretty much what you find there anyway, so I'll not post
my utility code.
I could quite clearly see how many users degraded available memory per session and at some time no further instance of the application was possible on the server. In my case RDP was used to start the app, Citrix will be quite the same, in the end the application
runs on some server and users see the remote running application.

Is the web logic server on the same dns domain as
Identity Server ?
Does the agent log or web logic server logs show any

There is no error in agent log and weblogic log by default. But when I set debug level to higher value, Exception thrown out, as shown. Is it a problem?

Monitoring Weblogic from HP Open View...

Has anyone successfully configured Weblogic SNMP Agent to
forward traps to HP Open View NNM?
I am trying to setup Weblogic to do just that, and haven't had
much luck so far.
I successfully loaded BEA-WEBLOGIC-MIB.asn1 MIB into OV, and
configured Weblogic SNMP Agent to have port 161 and Community
"public". I tried to configure 'SNMP Trap Destination' from WL console to point
to the Open View's ip address. But the information I miss is Open View's port
number.
Does anyone know what the port number is OV is using?
Both OV and Weblogic are running on the same machine. I read
OV manual, and this wouldn't be a problem. Anybody has the same
setup and successfully sends traps to OV from WL?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info about HP VPO. Wonder why is it a better solution than OpenView.
We just bought OV (for another project),
so we want to find out if it can also be used to monitor WL as well.
I had no problem sending SNMP messages to WL but HP OpenView
couldn't receive traps from WL (eventhough the log indicates that
WL does send the traps to HP OpenView).
Does Anybody have any success in having WL sending traps to
any manager stations at all?
Thanks in advance,
a.

A better solution is to use the HP VPO plug in for Weblogic - this integrates
HP with WLS and has pre configured alerts for detecting healthy / unhealthy
weblogic,
starting/stopping WLS etc.
BEA should watch this group more closley and have made this suggestion
- HP are
one of the partners....

Has anyone successfully configured Weblogic SNMP Agent to

I am trying to setup Weblogic to do just that, and haven't had
much luck so far.
I successfully loaded BEA-WEBLOGIC-MIB.asn1 MIB into OV, and
configured Weblogic SNMP Agent to have port 161 and Community
"public". I tried to configure 'SNMP Trap Destination' from WL console
to point
to the Open View's ip address. But the information I miss is Open View's
port
number.

EM: Issue Monitoring WebLogic Domains

Hello there,
We have installed some WebLogic domains across 5 hosts, in addition, on these hosts there is some OMA agents for monitoring that domains. We have achived successfully adding these domains to EM, they are visibles from EM Administration Console, their applications and other statistics.
However, on emagentfetchlet.log files we are getting:

Java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: weblogic.j2ee.descriptor.wl.serverBean,

Hi,
I tried to follow the procedure to use WLST to change the port number of one of my Servers...
started wslt.sh with no problems reports...
but when issued the commands
wsl:/offline>readDomain('path to my base_domain') <-- was successful
wls:/offline/base_domain>cd('servers/AdminServer')
Error: cd() failed. Do dumpStack() to see details.
wls:/offline/base_domain>dumpStack()

at com.oracle.cie.domain.script.jython.CommandExceptionHandler.handleException(CommandExceptionHandler.java:51)
... 29 more
So I guess that one of the two, either I am missing one of the jars in my classpath (in this case I don't know which one?) because weblogic.jar does not have this class in it.
or ?
please help if you can you are the only help o-bey 1 !
Cheers!

UCSM / VMware vCenter Server dependencies for vDS

I am still trying to wrap my head around the differences between the vDS created via UCSM / VMware vCenter integration and the traditional N1K.
If understand correctly, the UCSM (1.4) vDS does not require the VSM appliance that is needed with the N1K. And if that is correct, is there any dependency on vCenter? If vCenter goes down will the vDS continue to operate normally as the FIs are acting as the VSM?

Hi Peter,
Just to add to the nice post from Eric, 5+ Eric
as you might aware that with the Cisco M81KR VIC adapter
- VN-Link in hardware, all traffic to and from a virtual machine passes through the DVS and the hypervisor.
and then returns to the virtual machine on the server. Switching occurs in the fabric interconnect (hardware).
As a result, network policies can be applied to traffic between virtual machines. This capability provides
consistency between physical and virtual servers
For Cisco UCS instances that use Cisco M81KR VIC adapters to implement VN-Link in hardware, you must
create and install an extension file to establish the relationship and communications between Cisco UCS
Manager and the VMware vCenter. This extension file is an XML file that contains vital information
The distributed virtual switch (DVS) framework delivers VN-Link in hardware features and capabilities for virtual machines on Cisco UCS servers with VIC adapters
With VN-link in hardware, Layer 2 traffic between two VMs on the same host is not locally switched on the DVS but it sent upstream to the UCs-6100 for the policy application and switching. Switching occurs in the fabric interconnect (hardware). As a result, network policies can be applied to traffic between virtual machines. This capability provides consistency between physical and virtual servers.
In VMware vCenter, a port profile is represented as a port group. Cisco UCS Manager pushes the port profile names to vCenter, which displays the names as port groups. None of the specific networking properties or settings in the port profile are visible in VMware vCenter.

Cisco Nexus v1000 not connecting to VMWare vCenter

I am trying to deploy Nexus 1000v, but there is a problem - no connection with vCenter. Pings are ok, all ip addresses and port numbers are valid. Console displays following error:
switch(config)#svs connection vc
remote ip address 10.10.10.200 port 5480
protocol vmware-vim
vmware dvs datacenter-name CORE
connect
ERROR: [VMWARE-VIM] Operation could not be completed due to connection failure. End of file or no input: Operation interrupted or timed out after 160s send or 160s receive delay
Thank you.

You should use port 80 instead of 5480 in your svs connection string. Port 5480 is the default port for the management of the vCSA.

End of Availability for VMware vCenter CapacityIQ

Argh.
I recieved the end availability notice for CapacityIQ today. For one brief, shining moment I thought that I was going to come out ahead on one of these product/licensing switcheroos with the switch vCenter Operations. Then I saw that this change would double our support costs per VM for very little additional functionality that we really need. I'll try it out and compare it to the third party alternatives but I think it's going to be tough making a case to my management that we need to spend twice the money annually on capacity management.

Walter,
For what I know, there are discussions to change the wording and make it less confusing... all this means is that VMware Technical Assistance center will not provide support to resolve issues with N1Kv, if the issue is with N1kv, Cisco TAC will support it.
Cisco also offers ISV1 contracts that cover software support, meaning we (TAC) are Level 1 of support and if we cant figure it out, we contact the OS vendor for additional (level 2 and higher) support; in the same way, VMware used to sell support contracts to their customers, where if the issue was with N1kv, the end user would call VMware first and if they cant figure it out, they would call Cisco TAC.
Bottom line, customers that have N1Kv support contracts, through VMware, are encouraged (by Cisco) to reach to their Cisco Rep and get a support contract for TAC to help them in case it is needed.
I hope that clarifies your questions :)

Weblogic J2EE agent 2.2 performance issue

Hi All,
Are these known performance issues with J2EE Agent 2.2 for Weblogic 8sp5?
Is there a document that tells about performance tuning of J2EE Agent 2.2 for Weblogic server?
We are doing the load testing with AM 7.0 and Weblogic J2EE Agent. We found that AM7.0 with Apache Policy agent works fine in our load test. Our Application's performance without the J2EE agent is good. The moment we add J2EE Agent for weblogic to the equation, it goes south...
Any help will be appreciated,
Thanks,
Vivek
