DFS locks

RAC processes (10.1.0.3) spinning forever on a DFS lock handle. Any SELECT on a specific table runs into this wait state and waits forever (until killed).
Potentially bug 3520103, but the causes described in Metalink Note 3520103.8 is not applicable in our case.
Metalink provides very little usable data about this bug. It would seem that we have now run into this problem twice in so many months on 10.1.0.3. Upgrade to 10.2 is planned but a few month away still.
The suggest workaround in Note 3520103.8 says "Restart one instance". This fails to work and does not make much sense to me either. Surely the ASM instance owning the unreleased DFS lock should be restarted and not just simply any (random) instance in the cluster?
Is it perhaps possible to identify these locks using SQL against an ASM instance?
Current workarounds I have are
- restarting the entire cluster (a very large hammer approach I don't like)
- dropping and re-creating the table in question (not always feasible and does it cause the dfs lock to be released, or does it instead merely hides the problem?)
If anyone has any details to share about this DFS lock handle problem, potential causes (other than what Metalink thinks), alternative workarounds, etc, I will appreciate it.
Thanks.

Hi Bkboudreau,
If I am not misunderstand your question, you are finding the method for iSCSI target servers synchronize iSCSI data.
Replication of data between sites is very important in a multi-site cluster, and is accomplished in different ways by different hardware vendors. You can choose the hardware
storage vendor solution when you want to synchronize data between two shared storage.
You cannot use the feature in Windows Server 2008 called Distributed File System Replication (DFS-R) as your data replication method in a multi-site cluster. DFS-R only performs
its data replication after a file is closed. This works well for files such as documents, presentations, or spreadsheets, but it will not work for files that are held open, such as databases or virtual machines. You must choose a replication option other than
DFS-R.

  • Understanding DFS lock handle

    Hi all,
    does anyone can help understanding the DFS lock handle Event ?.
    The reference does not consult clear information why this can happen

    Actually it does. It discusses the lock is a global lock, so cluster-wide.
    It also discusses communication with the DLM, an acronym which you can look up and which means Distributed Lock Manager.
    So no doubt DFS means Distrihbuted File System.

  • (V7.X ~ V8.X) OPS 환경의 WAIT EVENT DFS ENQUEUE LOCK ACQUISITION에 대하여

    제품 : ORACLE SERVER
    작성날짜 : 2004-08-13
    (V7.X ~ V8.X) OPS 환경의 WAIT EVENT DFS ENQUEUE LOCK ACQUISITION에 대하여
    =========================================================================
    PURPOSE
    이 자료는 OPS 환경에서 V$SESSION_WAIT 뷰에 나타나는 'DFS lock
    acquisition'과 'DFS enqueue lock acquisition'에 의하여
    performance가 저하될 경우 해결책에 대하여 알아보기로 한다.
    SCOPE
    Oracle Parallel Server(OPS) Option은 7~9i Standard Edition에서는
    지원하지 않는다.
    Problem Description
    OPS 환경에서 많은 user들이 동시에 접속하려 할 때 connection이
    매우 늦어지면서 V$SESSION_WAIT 뷰에는 'DFS lock acquisition'과
    'DFS enqueue lock acquisition' 이라는 event가 나타나며 slow
    performance를 보이는 문제가 발생한다.
    Workaround
    none
    Solution Description
    데이타베이스에 동시에 로그인하는 user의 수를 근거로 sequence sys.audses$
    의 cache_size를 더 큰 값으로 증가시켜야 한다.
    예를 들어, 200 으로 증가시켜 본다. (default value is only 20).
    sequence sys.audses$의 cache_size를 변경하기 위해서는 다음과 같이 수행한다.
    SQL> alter sequence sys.audses$ nocache;
    SQL> alter sequence sys.audses$ cache 200;
    변경된 값을 확인하기 위해서는 다음과 같이 수행한다.
    SQL> select * from dba_sequences where sequence_name='AUDSES$';
    Explanation
    로그인을 하는 동안 모든 데이타베이스 user들은 audit session id를 retrieve
    하기 위하여 sequence sys.audses$를 액세스할 필요가 있다. Default로 20개의
    sequence만이 cache되기 때문에 DFS enqueue lock에 높은 concurrency가 일어난다.
    이것은 OPS 환경에서만 발생하는 문제인데, 이 event 하에 발생하는 lock들은
    Parallel Server mode 에서만 발생하기 때문이다. 그래서, 이 때에는 반드시
    DLM에 의해서 lock convert operation이 일어나야 한다.

  • (V8.1.7) OPS : PCM LOCK과 NON-PCM LOCK에 대한 정리

    제품 : ORACLE SERVER
    작성날짜 : 2004-08-13
    (V7.3 ~ V8.1.7) OPS : PCM LOCK과 NON-PCM LOCK에 대한 정리
    =========================================================
    PURPOSE
    OPS 환경에서는 single instance와는 구별되어 PCM lock이라는 것이 존재한다.
    이것이 Non-PCM Lock과 어떻게 다르며, 어떤 방식으로 할당되는지에 대하여
    Oracle 8i(8.1.7) 버젼을 기준으로, 관련된 GC_* 파라미터에 대한 설명과 함
    께 소개하고자 한다.
    오라클 OPS 환경에서는 PCM lock 관련 파라미터를 어떻게 설정하느냐에 따라
    system 전체의 성능에 많은 영향을 미친다.
    SCOPE
    Oracle Parallel Server(OPS) Option은 8~9i Standard Edition에서는
    지원하지 않는다.
    Explanation
    1. Instance Lock
    Instance Lock에는 PCM Lock과 Non-PCM Lock 두가지가 존재한다.
    PCM(Parallel Cache Management) Lock은 Buffer cache 내의 block의 lock
    에 관련된 부분이고, Non-PCM Lock은 그 이외의 Lock이다.
    Non-PCM Lock에는 DFS enqueue lock과 DFS Lock 두가지가 있다.
    Instance Lock은 동기화에 필요한 cost가 굉장히 높으며, OPS 환경에서는
    PCM Lock의 갯수가 Non-PCM Lock의 갯수보다 훨씬 많다.
    이 PCM Lock의 갯수를 적절하게 잘 설정해야만 DLM을 적절하게 잘 구성했
    다 라고 말할 수 있다.
    2. PCM Lock
    1) PCM Lock은 X$LE 또는 GV$LOCK_ELEMENT 내에 기술된 lock element
    block class에 internal하게 mapping된다.
    2) lock element라고 불리우는 data structure 내에 state 정보를 저장한다.
    3) 다음과 같이 두 가지 방법으로 구현된다.
    1:1 or 1:n releasable locks
    1:1 or 1:n fixed locks
    3. Fixed Locking
    1) Oracle7에서는 default로 fixed locking 방법을 사용한다.
    2) DBA(data block address)에 hashing 알고리즘을 적용하여 data file
    block에 instance lock을 할당한다.
    3) Fixed locking 기법은 instance startup 시에 block에 hash 알고리즘
    을 이용하여 정적으로 할당이 된다.
    4) Fixed locking 기법은 보통 여러개의 data block을 cover한다.
    각 data file마다 고정된 수의 PCM lock이 할당되고, 한 datafile 당
    block 수가 몇 개인가에 따라 한 PCM lock이 관할하는 data block의 수
    가 결정이 된다.
    4. GC_FILES_TO_LOCKS
    각 datafile 당 PCM Lock의 갯수를 정하기 위하여 위 파라미터를
    initSID.ora 화일에 셋팅한다. 만약, 이 파라미터가 지정되어 있지 않으
    면, Oracle 7에서는 hashing 알고리즘에 근거하여 fixed하게 lock이
    assign되지만, Oracle 8부터는 releasable lock이 사용된다.
    해당 instance의 총 lock의 갯수를 지정하는 GC_DB_LOCKS 파라미터는
    Oracle 8부터 없어졌다.
    GC_FILES_TO_LOCKS = "{file_list=lock_count[!blocks][R][each]}:..."
    syntax는 위와 같다. 아래에 각각에 대한 설명을 추가한다.
    file_list : datafile 하나 또는 여러개를 set으로 지정 가능
    lock_count : file_list에 나타난 datafile에 대한 PCM lock의 갯수
    !blocks : cover할 연속된 block의 갯수
    R : 지정한 lock에 대해서는 releasable하다는 의미
    each : file_list에 지정한 각 datafile에 대해 할당된 lock의 갯수
    Example
    1=1000!25R
    1-3=500EACH
    1=300:2=100
    5. Instance Lock : FILE_LOCK view
    Oracle 7.3부터 제공되는 view로서 각 datafile에 대하여 PCM Lock이 얼마
    나 많이 할당되었는지 확인하는 view이다.
    select file_id, file_name, ts_name, start_lk, nlocks, blocking
    from file_lock;
    file_id : datafile number
    file_name : datafile name
    ts_name : tablespace name the file belongs to
    start_lk : first lock corresponding to the datafile
    nlocks : number of PCM locks allocated to the datafile
    blocking : number of blocks protected by a PCM lock on the file
    6. 1:1 Releasable Locking
    1) 1:1 releasable locking이 Oracle 8부터는 default이다.
    2) Releasable locking은 dynamic하게 PCM lock을 block에 assign한다.
    3) Lock은 필요할 때 assign되고 release된다.
    4) Block이 release되고 나면 PCM lock 또한 release된다.
    5) Lock element name은 Lock element가 reuse될 때마다 변한다.
    6) Instance startup하는 데 걸리는 시간이 더 빠르다. 그러나, request
    시에 DLM resource를 allocate하는 데 요구되는 시간이 더 많이 든다.
    7. Non-PCM Locks
    1) Non-PCM Lock은 dynamic하게 할당되고, PCM lock에 비해서 그 갯수는
    훨씬 적다. (시스템 전체 Lock의 5 ~ 10% 에 불과)
    2) Non-PCM Lock의 갯수를 직접 조절할 수 있는 초기화 파라미터는 없다.
    (except DML_LOCKS)
    3) Non-PCM Lock은 data block을 protect하지는 않는다. 그것은 PCM Lock
    의 job이다.
    4) 다음과 같은 역할을 하는 많은 type의 Non-PCM Lock이 있다.
    - Control access to data and control files
    - Control library and dictionary caches
    - Provide communication between instances
    5) Non-PCM Lock의 space를 조절하는 parameter들.
    DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS, DB_FILES, DML_LOCKS, PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS,
    PROCESSES, SESSIONS, TRANSACTIONS
    6) DML_LOCKS = 0 으로 설정하고 운영하는 것이 OPS에서는 일반적이다.
    OPS에서는 block level lock이 우선이므로, table lock이 자주 걸리는
    것이 바람직하지 않다. CREATE 또는 ALTER와 같은 작업을 할 경우에만
    이 파라미터 값을 0이 아닌 다른 값으로 설정하고, 그렇지 않은 경우에
    는 두 instance 모두 0으로 설정한다. 두 instance 모두 같은 값이어
    야 할 필요는 없으나, 0으로 설정할 경우에는 양쪽 모두 0으로 설정해
    야 한다.
    8. PCM Lock을 할당하기 위한 몇 가지 tips
    1) Always set GC_FILES_TO_LOCKS
    2) The value for GC_FILES_TO_LOCKS must be the same on all instances
    3) Do not assign locks to undo segment files
    4) No locks needed for temporary/sort blocks
    5) Group read-only objects together and allocate 1 hashed lock to
    the file
    6) Make tablespaces read-only, (no PCM locks used)
    7) Never assign DBA locking to read-only or mostly read only data
    8) If excessive pinging on undo blocks (down converts: X->SSX),
    increase GC_ROLLBACK_LOCKS

  • ROW CACHE ENQUEUE LOCK/ibrary cache load lock leads to database hung

    (lowercase, curly brackets, no spaces)
    We faced database hung on 3 node 11i erp 9i rac database.
    We saw the library cache load lock timed out events reported in alert log.
    Then few ora-600 and later ROW CACHE ENQUEUE LOCK timed out event. Eventually database was hung and we had to bounce the services .
    we created support sr 7845542.992 for RCA.
    The support says to increase shared pool size to avoid shared pool fragmentation and avoid reload ,additionaly to upgrade to 10g database.
    I am not covinced adding additional pool size would solve this or upgrade to 10 .furthermore even 10g has such issues reported.
    I saw couple of bugs mentioned such issue can happen due deadlock of session holding latches .
    kindly let me know your view on issue
    If required i can attach statspack for more information. (lowercase, curly brackets, no spaces)

    Many Thanks, i was keen to have your update .
    There are 8 cpus on each node . Reloads very high during time period ,but normally there are not high reloads.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
              Findings and Recommendations
    Finding 1: CPU Usage
    Impact is 1.44 active sessions, 27.08% of total activity.
    Host CPU was a bottleneck and the instance was consuming 99% of the host CPU.
    All wait times will be inflated by wait for CPU.
    Host CPU consumption was 99%.
       Recommendation 1: Host Configuration
       Estimated benefit is 1.44 active sessions, 27.08% of total activity.
       Action
          Consider adding more CPUs to the host or adding instances serving the
          database on other hosts.
       Action
          Session CPU consumption was throttled by the Oracle Resource Manager.
          Consider revising the resource plan that was active during the analysis
          period.
    Finding 2: Interconnect Latency
    Impact is .07 active sessions, 1.33% of total activity.
    Higher than expected latency of the cluster interconnect was responsible for
    significant database time on this instance.
    The instance was consuming 110 kilo bits per second of interconnect bandwidth.
    20% of this interconnect bandwidth was used for global cache messaging, 21%
    for parallel query messaging and 7% for database lock management.
    The average latency for 8K interconnect messages was 42153 microseconds.
    The instance is using the private interconnect device "lan2" with IP address
    172.16.200.71 and source "Oracle Cluster Repository".
    The device "lan2" was used for 100% of interconnect traffic and experienced 0
    send or receive errors during the analysis period.
       Recommendation 1: Host Configuration
       Estimated benefit is .07 active sessions, 1.33% of total activity.
       Action
          Investigate cause of high network interconnect latency between database
          instances. Oracle's recommended solution is to use a high speed
          dedicated network.
       Action
          Check the configuration of the cluster interconnect. Check OS setup like
          adapter setting, firmware and driver release. Check that the OS's socket
          receive buffers are large enough to store an entire multiblock read. The
          value of parameter "db_file_multiblock_read_count" may be decreased as a
          workaround.

    The SQL statement is forcing the use of a specific index, is this the best index?:
    SELECT /*+ INDEX (OM_COURSE_FEE OCF_CFC_CODE) */DISTINCT CF_COURSE_CODE FROM OM_COURSE_FEE,OT_STUDENT_FEE_COL_HEAD,OT_STUDENT_FEE_COL_DETL WHERE SFCH_SYS_ID = SFCD_SFCH_SYS_ID AND

    AND SFCH_APPR_DT IS NOT NULL AND SFCH_NO = :b2 AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 'X' FROM OM_STUDENT_HEAD WHERE STUD_SRN = SFCH_STUD_SRN_TEMP_NO AND NVL(STUD_CLO_STATUS,0) != 1 AND
    NVL(STUD_REG_STATUS,0) != 23 AND STUD_COURSE_CODE != 'CCT' AND CF_COURSE_CODE= STUD_COURSE_CODE ) ORDER BY 1 DESC
    Unfortunately, explain plans, even with dbms_xplan.display, may not show the actual execution plan - this is more of a problem when the SQL statement includes bind variables (capturing a 10046 trace at level 8 or 12 will help). With the information provided, it looks like the problem is with the number of logical reads performed: 17,503,305 in 84 executions = 208,373 logical reads per execution. Something is causing the SQL statement to execute inefficiently, possibly a join problem between tables, possibly the forced use of an index.

There is the possibility of additional predicates being generated by Oracle which will make this possible without introducing a Cartesian join, but those predicates are not displayed with an explain plan (they will appear with a DBMS_XPLAN). I may not be remembering correctly, but if the optimizer goal is set to first rows, a Cartesian join might appear in a plan as a nested loops join - Jonathan will know for certain if that is the case.
    Have you investigated the above as a possible cause? If you know that there is a problem with this one SQL statement, a 10046 trace at level 8 or 12 is much more helpful than a Statspack report.

  • Automatic Parallelism causes Merge statement to take longer.

    We have a problem in a new project as part of the ETL load into the Oracle datawarehouse we perform a merge statement to update rows in a global temporary table then load
    the results into a permanant table, when testing with automatic parallel execution enabled the plan changes and the merge never finishes and consumes vast amounts of resources.
    The database version is:-
    Database version :11.2.0.3
    OS: redhat 64bit
    three node rac 20 cores per node
    when executing serially the query response is typically similar to the following:

    I understand that the query is considered for parallel execution due to the estimated length of time it will run for and although the degree of parallleism seems excessive
    it is the default maximum for the server configuration, what we are tryig to understand is which statistics could be inacurate or missing and could cause this kind of problem.
    In this case we can add the no_parallel hint in the etl package as a workaround but would really liek to identify the root cause to avoid similar problems elsewhere.

    Based on the discrepancy between the estimated number of rows and the actual, and the below posted bind value of 2012-04-25 i'd first be checking if the statistics on T_CACHARGES are up to date.
    As a reference
    http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:4399338600346902127
    So that would be my first avenue of exploration.
    Cheers,

  • How unhealthy is this RAC?

    Text can be formatted by tagging the beginning and end of the block of text with the code ta
    \Formatted text goes here.
    \Example:
    This is formatted.When cutting and pasting text such as execution plans, excerpts from AWR reports, etc, it will maintain spacing and formatting, and make for much easier reading.
    As to the content, well, dumping the contents of v$system_event is pretty close to useless.
    As to the first three events you listed, 'enq: TX - index contention', 'enq: TX - row lock contention', 'enq: SQ - contention', well, all of those are easily tunable.
    First, for 'enq: SQ - contention', check your sequences. Do you have any NOCACHE sequences? Or sequences with small caches?
    As for 'enq: TX - row lock contention', well that's fairly self-explanatory. You have multiple sessions trying to lock the same row in the same table at the same time.
    Last, 'enq: TX - index contention', that's non-row level contention on an index. For example, if you have a unique index, insert a row w/ column value 1, but don't commit, then try to insert that same value from another session.
    But, before you do any of that, I think you need to clearly understand where the bottlenecks are. Try taking some AWR snapshots, about 5 minutes apart, when you're having performance problems. Look at the AWR report for that 5 minute period. In particular, look at your Top 5 timed events.
    Hope that helps,

  • Implementing SQL Plan Management on Oracle Database 11.2.0.2

    Environment:
    Oracle Linux 5 update 10 (UEK)
    Oracle GI 11.2.0.2.0 (Oracle ASM 11.2.0.2)
    Oracle Database 11.2.0.2.0 Enterprise Edition with RAC option (3 nodes)
    No PSU applied/CPU July 2013 applied to RDBMS
    Database servicing Siebel CRM 8.1.1.1 Application that uses bind peeking.
    Siebel CRM soon to be version 8.1.1.11
    There are a few bugs for SQL Plan Management (SPM) on 11.2.0.2 (see below).  The slowness and non-peeked binds issues seem very problematic.  I've seen a few bloggers recommend to not use SPM unless your at Oracle Database 12c.  Several of the bugs seemed to be fixed in 11.2.0.3 but we don't have any plans to move to 11.2.0.3 since we'll most likely be at 12.1.0.x in 7 months.  Any recommendation from the community on whether I should capture and use SQL Plan Management with 11.2.0.2?  Why, why not?  If there's other relevant information needed, let me know.

  • How to set the correct shared pool size and db_buffer_cache using awr

    Hi All,
    I want to how to set the correct size for shared_pool_size and db_cache_size using shared pool advisory and buffer pool advisory of awr report. I have paste the shared and buffer pool advisory of awr report.
    Shared Pool Advisory
    * SP: Shared Pool Est LC: Estimated Library Cache Factr: Factor
    * Note there is often a 1:Many correlation between a single logical object in the Library Cache, and the physical number of memory objects associated with it. Therefore comparing the number of Lib Cache objects (e.g. in v$librarycache), with the number of Lib Cache Memory Objects is invalid.

  • Oracle Best Practices for generating Transactions IDs in high OLTP systems

    We are in the process of designing a high OLTP system using Oracle 11g Database with the following NFRs:
    1) 1 million transactions per day
    2) 100,000 concurrent users
    There are close to about 160-180 entities in the database and we want to know the best approach/practice in deriving the transaction IDs for the OLTP system. Our preferences are given below:
    1) Use Oracle Sequence starting with 1,000,000,000 (1 billion) - This is to make the TXN ID look meaningful when it starts with 1 billion instead of starting it with 1.
    2) Use timestamp and cast it to number instead of using Oracle sequence.
    Note: Transaction IDs must appear in sequence as they are inserted - be it sequence/timestamp
    I would like to know pros/cons of the above methods and their impacts on performance. Also, appreciate if you could share any any best practices/methods that Oracle supports.
    Thanks in advance.

    I did a quick PoC using both Oracle Sequence & Timestamp for 1 million inserts in a Non-RAC environment. Code used is given below:
    create sequence testseq start with 1 cache 10000 order;
    create table test1 (txnid number, txndate timestamp(9));
    create table test2 (txnid number, txndate timestamp(9));
    begin
    for i in 1..1000000
    loop
    insert into test1 values(testseq.nextval,systimestamp(9));
    end loop;
    commit;
    end;
    begin
    for i in 1..1000000
    loop
    insert into test2 values(to_number(to_char(systimestamp(9),'yyyymmddhh24missff9')), systimestamp(9));
    end loop;
    commit;
    end;
    Here are the results:
    select max(txndate)-min(txndate) from test1;
    Result >> 0 0:3:3.514891000
    select max(txndate)-min(txndate) from test2;
    Result >> 0 0:1:32.386923000
    It appears that Timestamp is faster than sequence... Any thought is highly appreciated...Interesting that your sequence timing is so slow. You say this was a non-RAC environment, but I wonder if you had Oracle linked in RAC mode even though you were running single instance - this would result in the ORDERed sequence running through RAC's "DFS Lock Handle" mechanism which might account for the timing anomaly.
    Unfortunately your test is not particularly relevant. As DomBrooks points out there are lots of problems with sequence-based or time-based columns, especially in RAC, and most particularly if you think you want a "no-gap" sequence. On top of this, of course, your test doesn't include an index on the relevant column, and it's single user and doesn't test for any concurrency effects.
    Typical performance problems are: your RAC instances spend all their time negotiating who gets to use the next value; the index you use to enforce uniqueness suffers from massive contention on the "high-value" block unless you create a reverse-key index - at which point you have to be able to cache the entire index to minimise I/O overheads; you can hash partition the index to avoid using the reverse-key option - but that costs a lot of money if you don't already license the partitioning option.

  • Log file sequential read  and RFS ping/write - among Top 5 event

    I have situation here to discuss. In a 3-node RAC setup which is Logical standby DB; one node is showing high CPU utilization around 40~50%. The CPU utilization was less than 20% 10 days back but from 9th oldest day it jumped and consistently shows the double figure. I ran AWR reports on all three nodes and found one node with high CPU utilization and shows below tops events-
    EVENT WAITS TIME(S) AVG WAIT(MS) %TOTAL CALL TIME WAIT CLASS
    CPU time 5,802 34.9
    RFS ping 15 5,118 33,671 30.8 Other
    Log file sequential read 234,831 5,036 21 30.3 System I/O
    Sql*Net more data from
    client 24,171 1,087 45 6.5 Network
    Db file sequential read 130,939 453 3 2.7 User I/O
    Findings:-
    On AWR report(file attached) for node= sipd207; we can see that "RFS PING" wait event takes 30% of the waits and "log file sequential read" wait event takes 30% of the waits that occurs in database.
    Environment :- (Oracle- 10.2.0.4.0, O/S - AIX .3)
    1)other node awr shows "log file sync" - is it due to oversized log buffer?
    2)Network wait events can be reduced by tweaking SDU & TDU values based on MDU.
    3) Why ARCH processes taking much to archives filled redo logs; is it issue with slow disk I/O?
