Configuring Loadbalanced RDBMS (RAC) in Planning Datasources (11.1.1.2)

Hi everyone, during the configurarion of every RDB in System 11.1.1.2, I'm able to use "loadbalanced" JDBC URL (by using "advanced options" in the Oracle Hyperion EPM Configurator) --- Thanks for that DataDirect Connect® for JDBC Drivers v3.7!!
But when creating Planning datasources I have no option to enter custom JDBC URL in order to connect to the RAC (load balanced JDBC URL).
Should I manually change the JDBC URL in the Planning System schema? (HSP_DATASOURCES table).
It is a supported configuration???
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
JavierV

Hi everyone,
I have successfully configured my Planning Datasource with RAC capabilities, I have achieved that by changing the JDBC URL from the backend (by modifying the HSPSYS_DATASOURCE table in Planning System Catalog).
FYI:
Planning 11.1.1.2 comes by default with 2 JDBC libraries:*
*$HYPERION_HOME/deployments/WebLogic9/servers/HyperionPlanning/webapps/HyperionPlanning/WEB-INF/lib/hyjdbc.jar*
That ships the following classes:
hyperion.jdbc.base.BaseDriver
hyperion.jdbc.db2.DB2Driver
hyperion.jdbc.informix.InformixDriver
hyperion.jdbc.mysql.MySQLDriver
hyperion.jdbc.oracle.OracleDriver
hyperion.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
hyperion.jdbc.sybase.SybaseDriver
hyperion.jdbcspy.SpyDriver
+$HYPERION_HOME/deployments/WebLogic9/servers/HyperionPlanning/webapps/HyperionPlanning/WEB-INF/lib/jdbc12.jar+
That ships the following classes:
oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
Both Oracle Drivers (Hyperion or Oracle) supports RAC configuration, but you have be careful about each driver’s JDBC connection syntax:
JDBC sample URL for connecting to a RAC (Hyperion JDBC Driver):
jdbc:hyperion:oracle://<servername>:1521;ServiceName=<sid>;LoadBalancing=true;AlternateServers=(<servername>:1521;ServiceName=<sid>)
JDBC sample URL for connecting to a RAC (Oracle JDBC Driver):
jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=on)(FAILOVER=on)(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(protocol=tcp)(host=<servername>)(port=1521))(ADDRESS=(protocol=tcp)(<servername>)(port=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=<sid>)))
As an additional note, RDB_SERVER_URL field is VARCHAR2(255 Byte) so the JDBC URL must not exceed this limitation.
Best regards everyone.

How Do I Configure SSL for RAC Installation.

Experts,
Requesting your inputs on configuring SSL for my RAC environment.
- Oracle DB version is 11.2.0.2
- RAC is with two nodes.
- Two nodes are : rac1.oracle.com and rac2.oracle.com
- RAC setup has SCAN feature configured. SCAN FQDN : racscan.oracle.com
- All clients talk to RAC DB using SCAN feature as shown below.
client applications -> racscan.oracle.com ---> rac1.oracle.com
---> rac2.oracle.com
- tnsnames.ora file on both RAC instances has hostname as "racscan.oracle.com" instead of their individual phyiscal host names.
How do I configure SSL for RAC:
1. Do I need to generate certificate request for individual hostnames or only for SCAN hostname ?.
2. If I generate a certificate based on SCAN hostname, how does SSL work since SCAN hostname is not a phyiscal host name ?
3. What is recommended strategy for configuring SSL for RAC environment ?
Thanks

The documentation on the creation of Oracle Wallets is not specific to RAC, and the RAC SCAN instructions for TCPS are very vague on the specific requirements for the certificates required in the wallets for proper operation. I too am struggling to get it to work. Does anyone have a more technical guide to the specific configuration of the certificates needed and what specific configuration file changes need to be made?
Also, the self signed documentation is getting REALLY old. Oracle, please stop giving instructions that demonstrate irresponsibility and show the proper method of certificate requesting and importing to wallets.

HI,
For your home testing you might need a latest technology to get a smooth and fast installation. i7 processor might be the ideal with memory at least 8GB. if you're planning to have more than 3 VMs running at the same time than you need 12-16GB memory at least.
From my experience installing on vm and allocated memory 2.5GB each VM the installation could take 15-30minutes

Urgent help needed in configuring X1151A for RAC cluster

for RAC requirements I have to configure this card to use the interface name of ce1 but I have tried changing slots and puting /etc/hostname.ce1 file out there but it fails .. it always comes up as ce0.
my question is : How can I cofigure this card to come up as ce1 ? in the other box I had to do nothing .. i just placed the /etc/hostname.ce1 file with hostname and it works perfect.
can you please email me a copy of your response at [email protected] ?
thanks
Sami

Look for "ce" instances in the /etc/path_to_inst file. You'll need to change the lines so that the hardware path you want is "1".
Keep a backup and write down the pathname. You can give that path to a 'boot -a' prompt if anything bad happens.

SPNego configuration with Active Directory as UME datasource

Here are some additional informations:
According to SAP note 718383 changing an existing datasource configuration "dataSourceConfiguration_abap.xml" is not possible.
But my aim is to connect an ADS server as datasource
(dataSourceConfiguration_ads_readonly_db_with_krb5.xml).
Can I use my existing J2EE Engine at all?
The system has evolved like this:
BW 3.5 installation, upgrade to NW2004s, then Java Add In-Installation.
Or is it necessary to install an additional java instance?
I have just experiemented a bit:
In the Offline-Configtool the UME Property "Global server configuration ->
services -> com.sap.security.core.ume.service ->
ume.persistence.data_source_configuration" changed like this:
OLD: dataSourceConfiguration_abap.xml
NEW: dataSourceConfiguration_ads_readonly_db_with_krb5.xml
Then I restarted the J2EE cluster.
Result: the server0 process does not start anymore.
But at least now I could enter same values for the LDAP server (in the Offline-Configtool),
choose values from the drilldown list for the several configuration files and so on...
-> but is this the correct way at all?
Kind regards

Hi Rüdiger,
It all depends on what you want to do. You installed the AS Java as an Add-in to take adavantage of the existing user base in your AS ABAP and to access the resource from the AS ABAP from a portal.
OK, but now you want to do something about SSO and enable kerberos logon. For this you need the kerberos principal name from your ADS. OK, authentication is not my strong suit, but here are some ideas you can try. By the way in SAP NetWeaver 7.1 there is a configuration to log on to the AS Java using logon data from an LDAP, but still use the backend AS ABAP. See Configuring the UME for Directory Service Sync with AS ABAP for details. However, since you are still using 7.0, let's stick with that for now.
1. Use the LDAP Sync of the AS ABAP function to synchronize the user data of the AS ABAP and your ADS. You must populate the AS ABAP user records with the kerberos principal name. Which ABAP field you populate with this value I am not sure. You would then have to adapt the following procedure to get this data into your AS Java: Configuring the UME when Using Non-ADS Data Sources.
2. Set up a second AS Java and portal with the ADS as the datasource. Then migrate your users from the old one to the new one. Unfortunately, the users have different user IDs on the AS Java and the AS ABAP, so you would have to maintain user mapping between the two systems.
3. Use SAP NetWeaver Identity Management Identity Center to distribute the user data between the systems.
Unfortunately this kind of configuration is not well documented. I will see if I can find someone who can comment on this kind of setup.

Configurated sales orders and block planning

Hello
We plan to implement ECC configurated sales orders and APo DP and block planning.
We is the preferable process :
- create the production orders in ECC at time of sales orders creation and run heuristics in apo to cover forecast with planned orders
- send sales orders in Apo run heuristic and convert planned orders to production orders to cover sales orders?
thanks in advance for your help
Patrice

Hi Patrice,
The second process that you have mentioned,
send sales orders in Apo run heuristic and convert planned orders to production orders to cover sales orders?
is the effective and business advantageous process in which you can get optimised plan output planned through APO.

10g grid agent installation and configuration on oracle RAC

Hi All,
I have one two node RAC setup on HP-UX itanium platform and I want to install oracle 10g grid agent on both the RAC nodes to monitor the RAC instances and databases and OMS repository server is ready and running. Only I have installed agents on both the nodes, but tns entry and hosts files on OMS server and both the nodes modified.
But, nodes are not getting automatically discovered by OMS server. And what is the command to configure the grid agent on RAC instances.
I have to install grid agent on both the nodes individually or it can be installed on single node and can be integrated with other node.
Please help me out in this regard.......
Thanks in Advance,
Sukanta Paul.
Edited by: sukanta paul on Aug 18, 2009 10:16 PM

Similar problem and installation does not detect the rac nodes and installation is done locally which does not help the situation..By the way we all consult documentation and the whole point of having a forum is so we have a potential fix or work around and not link from here to documentation. Just to mention :)

Arivelog mode configuration proble in RAC database

Hi,
I'm trying to configure RAC database in archivelog mode but when try to do so get the following error, during the database startup in mount state
LRM-00109: could not open parameter file '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/dbs/initorcl.ora'
This error shows that the system could not find the initorcl.ora and really it does not exist. But the system at this stage is single
instance as I chenged the value of cluster_database=false before shutdown and then start.
when I enter the command startup mount it give me this error. What should I do to avoid it. Should I make a pfile of this from spfile in cluster mode
and then put this pfile in the desired path to start the single instance or any other thing should I tried.
Regards,
Abbasi

Perform the following steps to relocate the SPFILE from the local file system to an ASM disk group.
    * Create a text-based initialization parameter file from the current binary SPFILE located on the local file system:
      SQL> CREATE PFILE='$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initTESTDB.ora'
        2 FROM SPFILE='$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/spfileTESTDB.ora';
      File created.
    * Create new SPFILE in an ASM disk group:
      SQL> CREATE SPFILE='+TESTDB_DATA1/TESTDB/spfileTESTDB.ora'
        2 FROM PFILE='$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initTESTDB.ora';
      File created.
    * Shutdown the Oracle database:
      SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
      Database closed.
      Database dismounted.
      ORACLE instance shut down.
    * Update the text-based init<SID>.ora file with the new location of the SPFILE in ASM:
      $ echo "SPFILE='+TESTDB_DATA1/TESTDB/spfileTESTDB.ora'" > $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initTESTDB.ora
    * Remove (actually rename) the old SPFILE on the local file system so that the new text-based init<SID>.ora will be used:
      $ mv $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/spfileTESTDB.ora $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/BACKUP_ASM.spfileTESTDB.ora
    * Open the Oracle database using the new SPFILE:

Regarding Hangcheck timer configuration in Oracle RAC 10g r2 installation

Hi,
Is it necessary to configure hangcheck timer in Oracle RAC 10g R2 installation .
Can somebody guide when we should install the hangcheck timer in Linux oracle 10g R2.
Best Regards
Gupteswar Prasad Mishra
Edited by: Gupteswar on Jan 25, 2010 8:42 PM

yes, its recommended to configure hangcheck timer in RAC configuration
Configure the Hangcheck Timer
The hang-check timer is loaded into the Linux kernel and checks if the system hangs. It will set a timer and check the timer after a certain amount of time. There is a configurable threshold to hang-check that, if exceeded will reboot the machine. Although the hangcheck-timer module is not required for Oracle Clusterware (Cluster Manager) operation, it is highly recommended by Oracle.
cat /etc/rc.local
modprobe hangcheck-timer hangcheck_tick=1 hangcheck_margin=10 hangcheck_reboot=1

PCP Configuration on 11i RAC

Hi All,
We've 2 Concurrent Manager nodes & 2 node for forms in a 2 node RAC environment. I've gone through few docs on PCP config and configuration what we've did in our environment is confusing me a lot .
Summary of our CM's(concurrent Mgr) configuration in our environment to make my questions help better for you people to answer :)
1. PCP instance check profile option is set to OFF.
2. s_cp_twotask => xxxx is configured to connect to only one instance but failover is allowed to Node 2.
3. As per point 2 all our CM's are being connected to Node 1 only.
4. For all the Managers we've edited both primary & seconday except for service managers. Is that right ?
Here are my questions to answer ?
1. At the moment we'll start all the concurent managers in Node 1 but we only start the apps listener in Node 2. Is this right ? by considering above config if not please correct me.
2. As per my understanding if all the concurrent mgr are starting in Node 1. But still FNDIMON & FNDSM should be up and running in Node 2 ? incase of any failover in Node 1 FNDIMON should be able to start Internal manager in Node 2 ?
3. Will FNDSM executable is spawned after starting Apps listener script in Node 2 ?
4. Some of the below errors are seen continiously in Concurrent mgr logfile . But our mgr's are running fine with out any issues why do i still see below errors in the log files if so ?
Adding Node:(XXXXXX), Instance:(Inst1) to unavailable list

Hi,
I'll try to find out for you if the 11.2 gateways can take advantage of any of the new RAC features.

RDBMS event generator & JNDI datasources

Hi everyone,
My WLI 8.1 SP5 is going nuts ! I'm under a cluster architecture, WL 8.1 SP6 with Red Hat Linux, JRockit 1.4.2_10. Deploying an application i need to create some RDBMS event generator, but when i do this, i get an NameNotFoundException looking for my jndi datasource ( see below ). The datasource is created and i can work with it, since it's a must for my application. How is it possible that a datasource exists for a web application and does not for an integration event ? Does anyone have any experience about this ? Any help will be very appreciated !!
