Dedicated server question

If database was crated in DEDICATED SERVER mode and still is, why then I have SHARED_SERVERS parameter set to 1 and shared server process running on my server? This is only database on this server.
# ps ax | grep s0

Oracle 10g, Linux x86

On a stand-alone laptop with dedicated connection running 11.1.0.7.

What is in your TNSNAMES.ORA?
Here's mine:

  • Question regarding Listener and Server Processes in dedicated server mode

    Good morning,
    The Oracle documentation states that when a client connection request is received on the server, the Listener creates a Server Process which will work with the database instance to carry out the tasks requested by the user/client process. So far, everything good.
    Now, when the user is at the Oracle server itself, the Listener does not need to be running to establish a connection to the database. It is therefore possible to stop the Listener and still connect using sqlplus and a valid username and password.
    In the above case, the question is: if the Listener is not running, what/who created the Server Process that communicates with the database instance on behalf of the user ? Stated a different way, in the normal case, the Listener would get the request and create the server process. When the Listener is not running what part of Oracle gets the requests and creates the server process ?
    Clarification on how this case is handled is much appreciated, thank you,
    John.

    When using bequeath protocol the server process is created by the client process: it's the client process that is using ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME to compute shared memory key (under UNIX) to know which SGA to attach (i.e. which instance to connect to):
    Example with SQL*Plus :
    $ ps -fu oracle | grep DB112
    oracle    5675     1  0 18:13 ?        00:00:00 ora_pmon_DB112

    >
    If the client and database exist on the same computer, then a client connection can be passed directly to a dedicated server process without going through the listener. This is known as a bequeath protocol. The application initiating the session spawns a dedicated server process for the connection request. This happens automatically if the application used to start the database is on the same computer as the database.

  • Forcing shared/dedicated server

    Hey, I have two questions about dedicated and shared server.
    1. If the applications use directory naming and shared server, but for one host we want to use dedicated in we can create another service for the same instance but using dedicated server, right?
    Is it possible to set, in sqlnet.ora for that one "dedicated" application
    NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH=(TNSNAMES,LDAP)
    then create tnsnames.ora with THE SAME service name as in ldap, but using dedicated server? Since there's TNSNAMES before LDAP in sqlnet.ora will the tnsnames service name be used first? Or will we get error?
    2. If I have sqlplus on remote machine with tnsnames.ora indicating the connections to orcl use shared server, but I connect to sys as sysdba (or just an administrator) will the use of dedicated server be forced?
    Thx.
    A.

    1) That should work. If the SQL*Net layer is told to look in the tnsnames.ora file first and the alias is found in the tnsnames file, it shouldn't look in OID. On the other hand, you'd eliminate a lot of the utility of having OID set up since you'd have to modify a bunch of tnsnames files when other connection information changed.
    I would tend to think that you want the applications rather than the hosts themselves to determine whether to use a shared server connection or a dedicated server connection and that you want to have TNS aliases for SomeDatabase_Shared and SomeDatabase_Dedicated in OID.
    2) Yes, SYSDBA connections are forced to use dedicated server connections.

  • How fast a query can run on dedicated server?

    I have a server on which we have installed several clients database isntances. Recently there were several performance issue for one of the client while running few reports at which time I heard that was becasue of their instance is an shared server and if we make it dedicated the performance will improve. How do you find out whether an instance running on a particular box is a dedicated server connection or shared server connection. What is the definition of those in simple lay mans terms. How do you change a shared connection to dedicated connection and vice versa? Does it depend on the memory/cpu size etc. Changing it to dedicated server helps the performance? if so by how much Any help is higly appreciated.

I start to reach for the old lead pipe when I hear stuff like that, that is seemingly based on hearsay and rumour and not a single shred of evidence is provided.
    I will tell "+those people+" that claims your performance problems are due to shared server to put up or shut up.
    There is very little performance difference (in the vast majority of cases) between shared and dedicated server. The biggest difference is that with a shared server you talk to the process servicing your SQL via a dispatcher process and then via a virtual circuit. With a dedicated server, you talk directly to the process servicing you.
    Both shared and dedicated server runs the SAME CBO code , the SAME SQL engine.. so how can a query be faster in one and not the other? And if that was the case. If there was a performance difference.. Surely Oracle will recommend not using the "bad" one? Or even better, Oracle would discontinue and deprecated the "bad" one?
    There is no difference in whether a query is executed by shared or dedicated server. The same CBO does the same execution plan and creates the same cursor. What is different is how the communication and interaction works with the client session/process. What is different is where UGA (User Global Area) memory resides. In other words, very technical execution environment differences - not differences to HOW the query is parsed and HOW the query is executed. Which then begs the question how can the query be faster in one and not the other?
    But shared server and dedicated server aside. What is the "+First and Fundamental Rule Of Software Engineering?+"
    It is.. "{color:blue}*UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM*{color}"
    If you do not know WHAT the problem is, WHY the problem is, how on earth can you hope to address the problem and resolve it?
    Thus my "unhappiness" of those that make performance resolution claims by sucking their thumbs, repeating what they may have read somewhere, and not back it up with evidence and fact - like those who told you that your problem is using shared server.
    What can be a problem is that you may not have enough dispatchers. Or insufficient shared servers in the shared server pool. Or being to tight with the SGA that now also needs to cater to the shared server sessions' UGA memory. Or shared servers being used (incorrectly and explicitly by client software) for running long and slow queries (thus tying up that shared server with servicing a single session and making it non-sharable and unable to service others too). Etc. Etc.
    There's a whole wackload of potential issues... and many of them are solved in different ways. Simply changing shared server for dedicated servers and expecting a performance improvement as those hearsayers you deal with are claiming...? That is not just ignorance, but borders dangerously on stupidity. (dedicated servers can also kill performance when incorrectly used)

  • How to convert dedicated server-mode to shared server-mode ?

    Hi
    I am having 3 oracle client machines(each with sql*plus or Toad tool),all these 3 client are to be connected through Jboss-4.0.5(application server) to Oracle 10g database server.
    [ all 3 clients + 1 application server + 1 database server are with different ip address]
    Question-1
    Is it possible to convert a running Oracle-10.1.0.2.0 database server in[b] Windows server-2003 os from dedicated server-mode to shared server-mode ?
    Question-2
    What all are the init parameters I have to change ?
    So far I have changed (a) alter system set shared_servers=5;
    (b) alter system set dispatchers=(pro=tcp)(dis=3);
    (c) alter system set max_dispatchers=10;
    (d) alter system set shared_server_sessions=5;
    (e) alter system set circuits=300;
    Question-3
    How to configure Listener in the Client system ?
    Question-4
    What all are the changes to be made in Jboss server ?
    Regards
    Sbmk_design

    ad 1) Yes this is possible
    Ad 2) From the top of my head, these seem like the settings to change
    Ad 3) You do not have to change the listener (ow.. and clients have no listener) just make sure that you do not have '"server=dedicated" in your local tnsnames.ora file
    Ad 4) in jboss, just check your datasource. If it is using a thin connection you are ok, if you are using a oci connection check the tnsnames.ora file.

  • Reg : Shared server process or dedicated server process

    Hi,
    Apologies if i have asked a silly question.How do we know whether our DB is running in dedicated server process or shared server process.

    Hi,
    How do we know whether our DB is running in dedicated server process or shared server process.
    I assume that, you are asking about the view of Oracle Processes in different OS Platform.
    In a UNIX environment, Oracle processes (also other DB Processes) can be viewed as individual system processes.
    On Windows platform Oracle Processes  (also other DB Processes) are implemented as threads that run within one common Oracle operating system process, oracle.exe (e.g. in DB2, db2syscs.exe process). These processes are not visible when you list processes at operating system level.

  • A Few Newbie 10.8 Server Questions...

    Hi All,
    A few quick newbie 10.8 Server questions:
    1) Airport Extreme - I currently have an Airport Extreme attached to one of my workstations which is serving as my main router with a dedicated IP. I'm just in testing mode with my new server and wondering if I need to do anything to the Airport's configuration to make it work with the Server? Does the Server need to administer the functions of the AirportExtreme? Or is it ok to leave it attached to the workstation? Or does it not make any difference?
    2) Automount Shared Folder/Drive - I would like my users (who are mostly using MacBookPros with they take home and bring back to work) to be able to Automount our shared data drive when they come in to work. I read the help section regarding AutoMount, but it a) referred to using ServerAdmin, which I understand has been eliminated from 10.8 (dont know why they are still referring to it in the help!) and b) it talks about AutoMounting Home Folders, but not shared Drives/Folders.
    3) Firewall - I have a static IP and want my users to be able to connect using VPN. I am buying a SSL for the domain. Wondering if the combination of the built in firewall, plus the SSL, plus the built in VPN is secure enough, or should I be investing in a solution such as the SonicWall TZ100.
    Thank you !!!!!

    The Server app is not required to manage your airport.
    The server app can automatically open ports for you, so it makes life easier for a home-server-administrator.
    Continue managing your Airport or whatever NAT router you prefer any way you choose.
    2) Automount Shared Folder/Drive - I would like my users (who are mostly using MacBookPros with they take home and bring back to work) to be able to Automount our shared data drive when they come in to work. I read the help section regarding AutoMount, but it a) referred to using ServerAdmin, which I understand has been eliminated from 10.8 (dont know why they are still referring to it in the help!) and b) it talks about AutoMounting Home Folders, but not shared Drives/Folders.
    You can drag a mounted sharepoint to the right-side of a user's dock.
    It will then remember the sharepoint, and its 1-click to open it when needed,
    This is my preference with laptops.
    You can also add the sharepoint to your user's login items (on their workstations, System Prefs, UsersGroups/, User, Login Items - I don't like to do this with laptops because it causes a login delay when they aren't in the locaiton of the sharepoint.
    Either method is simple.
    I even use Safari bookmarks to get people to a server. Go to the addressbar and type:   afp://[email protected]   (with your real IP) then bookmark it. You can also drag that that URL to the desktop to have a location file which will ALSO take you to the server.
    So Lots of ways...  Depends on users/environment.
    3) Firewall - I have a static IP and want my users to be able to connect using VPN. I am buying a SSL for the domain. Wondering if the combination of the built in firewall, plus the SSL, plus the built in VPN is secure enough, or should I be investing in a solution such as the SonicWall TZ100.
    If you aren't going to have anything except for VPN open to the public, then you won't need SSL.
    VPN, but nature, is already encrypted and does not use SSL.
    If you will run Mail, Web, Calendar, Contacts, etc and don't want to requires users to VPN, then you should use SSL.
    TIP: Fromt the start, use a fqdn for your server. Don't use a .private or something fictitious.
    If you own mydomain.com, then setup myserver.mydomain.com and make it your server's hostoname from the get-go.
    Later, you'll be glad you used a proper FQDN

  • Is dedicated server process part of Instance or not?

    Hi friends,
    I am new to Oracle Database. I have been reading famous book "Expert Oracle Database Architecture" by Thomas kyte. At page no. 62 he has said that "This dedicated server process is not (by definition) part of the instance."
    But in the [email protected] documentations at almost most of the places they have mentioned that dedicated server is part of an instance. Interestingly Tom Kyte has coauthored book. I got confused because Dedicated server process would also have PGA so it will be part of Memory so it should be part of instance. So has Tom Kyte said for that particular dedicated process and why? He must have said that with some reason? What is that?
    I have also asked my trainer. But I didn't get satisfactory answer.
    Thanks.

    Can you cite a specific instance of the documentation stating that dedicated server is part of the instance?  Your embedded link is a 'mailto' link, not a url to a document.
    I can offer specific links stating otherwise.
    If I start at Oracle Database Online Documentation 11g Release 2 (11.2)  I am at the portal for all database 11.2 documentation.
    From there, do a search for 'dedicated server' and get the results of that search at Oracle Database Search Results: dedicated server
    The first result returned is the definition, at Glossary
    The definition states:
    dedicated server
    A database configuration in which a server process handles requests for a single client process.
    If I follow the embedded link for 'server process', I get the definition of a "server process" at Glossary
    Note that this definition is for all "server processes", not just dedicated server.  It says
    server process
    An Oracle process that communicates with a client process and Oracle Database to fulfill user requests. The server processes are associated with a database instance, but are not part of the instance.

  • Shared and Dedicated server modes

    Aswin,
    I didnt see the other posts but the error is fairly simple,
    >
    ORA-12514:
    TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
    Cause:     The listener received a request to establish a connection to a database or other service. The connect descriptor received by the listener specified a service name for a service (usually a database service) that either has not yet dynamically registered with the listener or has not been statically configured for the listener. This may be a temporary condition such as after the listener has started, but before the database instance has registered with the listener.
    Action:     
    - Wait a moment and try to connect a second time.
    - Check which services are currently known by the listener by executing: lsnrctl services <listener name>
    - Check that the SERVICE_NAME parameter in the connect descriptor of the net service name used specifies a service known by the listener.
    - If an easy connect naming connect identifier was used, check that the service name specified is a service known by the listener.
    - Check for an event in the listener.log file.

    So check what you are passing in the connection string.

  • Shared and Dedicated Server...

    Dear All,
    Can anybody tell what's the difference between shared and dedicated server? Our database is Oracle 9.0.1 in Windows 2003. Our total session is around 200. Our server is dedicated server. What will be the benefit if we change our database to shared server for specific users???
    Shared pool size = 728MB
    Buffer Cache = 592MB
    Java pool = 104MB
    Large pool = 60MB
    There is no pga_aggregate_target in our database. Is the configuration ok for more than 200 users??? Most of the times we get 'out of process memory error'. What should we do in this situation??? Plz suggest.

    Can anybody tell what's the difference between shared and dedicated server?Dedicated server is the default. It means that each and every user session is serviced by a dedicated Oracle server process. 200 user connections? 200 dedicated server processes.
    On Windows these are however threads inside the physical oracle.exe process (and not actual separate process images like on Unix/Linux for example). A standard thread on Windows needs around 2MB of kernel space. So 200 threads, for 200 dedicated server connections, need 200 x 2MB RAM.
    Shared server works differently. A pool of dispatchers and shared servers are created. The dispatcher processes deals with the communication between the Oracle client and the Oracle instance. A dispatcher places client requests on a virtual circuit. These requests are picked up by idle shared server processes and processed. The results are send back to the client via a dispatcher process.
    So instead of having 200 dedicated server processes to service 200 users, you can for example use 5 dispatcher processes and 30 shared server processes to service the 200 sessions of those 200 users. In this case 35 processes are used that translates into 35 threads at a basic 2MB RAM cost per thread. (also note that the UGA now moves from the Oracle PGA to the Oracle SGA and the SGA needs to be sized accordingly).
    However, should such a user session send a long and complex request, that will tie up that shared server for a long time.. and this is bad. When the shared server process is busy, it cannot service any new requests. When all the shared servers in the pool are busy, no new request can be serviced. So you want the requests from the clients to be short and sweet - with a shared server not spending more than a few seconds per request.
    So typically OLTP requests are fine for shared servers.. OLAP requests not.
    Our database is Oracle 9.0.1 in Windows 2003. You should have been on 9.2.0.7 (last 9i patch set). You should currently being in the process of upgrading to 11gR2. 9i is basically an unsupported product. It is not a good idea to use an unsupported product in production. Even worse when you are not using the latest patchset for that product.
    As for using Windows.. why? 32bit is old hat. 64bit CPUs are standard even in today's desktop PCs. Consider using Linux instead. It is Open Source, is free ito purchasing (you only pay for support and maintenance) and it has had de-facto 64bit support for many years now. There's no need to hack the operating system, like Windows with its AWE extensions to address more than 4GB RAM.

  • How to create a dedicated-server session (to a oracle database)

    Hello!
    I've installed Oracle SQL Developer (Rel.: 2.1.1.64.45) and Oracle Instant Client (Rel.: 11.1.0.7), my Client is configured to enable connections using tnsnames.ora or host-/easy-naming (sqlnet.ora-entry: NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, HOSTNAME)).
    Regardless how I configure a database-connection in SQL Developer, I allways "only" get a shared-server connection (even when using a tnsnames.ora-entry with "...(SERVER = DEDICATED)...").
    SQL Developer (any release) in combination with ("fat") client 9.2.0.7 (using tnsnames.ora) creates dedicated-server sessions as wanted.
    Is there any setting in SQL Developer which dis- and/or enables dedicated-server sessions or is this a feature/problem of Instant Client 11.1.0.7?
    Any ideas and/or suggestions?
    (Additional Info: There is no difference in this behavior according to the connected database, I work with databases 9.2.0.7, 10.2.0.3, 10.2.0.4, 11.1.0.6 and 11.2.0.1)
    With kind regards
    Klaus

    Hi,
    Take a look at the main [ SQL Developer page on OTN|http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/index.html]. There is a link you should find useful, it's the Getting Started link under the Migration section. This explains how to download and setup the drivers you need to correct to non-Oracle databases. There are also links to online demonstrations on how to create connections to these databases. See how you go with that material.
    It should help.

  • Can i backup dedicated server using rman?

    when i try to issure 'register database' under rmank, it report and error:
    RMAN-10035: exception raised in RPC: ORA-19550: cannot use backup/restore functi
    ons while using dispatcher
    RMAN-10031: ORA-19550 occurred during call to DBMS_BACKUP_RESTORE.CFILEUSECURREN
    i configure my oracle using MTS(multi-thread server) mode. When i change it to Dedicated Server mode, it works without error.
    does that rman can only work with dedicated server? How about MTS?
    thanks.

    Here is a section in the RMAN docs that explain MTS and RMAN.

  • Installing Adobe LCCS on a dedicated server

    Hi,
    Recently, I was trying out Adobe LCCS for screen sharing and file publishing features, and indeed found it as great collaboration service for all the flex application build around the world.
    We have a application built on Flex and .net for virtual events domain. I want to use Adobe LCCS to leverage features like web conferencing, screen sharing etc. By going through the site and other blogs, I could understand that this service is provided as S-a-a-S but I want to install this service on a single dedicated server at our end and avoid any dependency on the external server. Does Adobe provides LCCS as a offering of this? Even a pre-installed server could be an option?Also, we are using FMS for our application, can this FMS instance (instead of fms.acrobat.com) be utilised for file sharing, video confering and whiteboard.
    Thanks,
    Anubhav Bisaria

    Sorry Anubhav,
    We have had such requests in the past, but currently we dont offer that option.
    Thanks
