Distributed ttransaction with Oracle and MQseries

Hi,
I am leveraging a Tuxedo architecture on HP-UX IA64 that utilizes two XA resource managers, MQSeries and Oracle. The use of the resource managers is based on a coordinated 2 phase commit method (TPBEGIN - TPCOMMIT).
The application running on tuxedo has beem migrated from Mainframe environment (z/OS + CICS + DB2 + MQ)
The systems functionally works, , but we continue to experience major performance issues, caused by the fact that in the original application migrated from the CICS environment executes an high number of syncpoint(s).
What is observable is that increasing the number of parallel processes (tuxedo servers), the cost of the single syncpoint is much greater than the cost of an atomic elaboration (atomicity) of that same transaction.
Ex., if the cost of an elaborated transaction is 2 ms, the cost of syncpoint is 30 ms.
Because we were not able to solve the proble just changing configuration parameters, in this specific case, we have simply reduced the number of syncpoints executed by the application so to lower the cost of syncpoint to the same rate as a transaction.
Is it possible to have a reference or information on similar use cases of mission-critical Tuxedo/UNIX environments with high volumes? (Millions of transactions)?
Is it possible to understand if there are parameters that can be set/established at a configuration level in Tuxedo (ubbconfig or others) to deal with the above-stated issue?
Thanks in advance for any helpful feedback
Regards
Roberto

There are a couple of major and minor mistakes in your listener.ora like specifying 2 times the listener name LISTENER. Using 2 different hostnames on the same machine or specifying the ENVS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH for a Windows Gateway as well as the executable you defined.
I tried to summarize it in your original thread bust recommend you to log a service request.

  • How do I set miminum # of connections for pool with Oracle and Tomcat?

    Hi,
    I can't seem to find any attribute to initialize the number of connections for my connection pool. Here is my current context.xml file under my /App1 directory:
    <Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
    debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
    <Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
    type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
    driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
    factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
    url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
    user="app1" password="app1" />
    </Context>
    I've been googling and reading forums, but haven't found a way to establish the minimum number of connections. I've tried all sorts of parameters like InitialLimit, MinLimit, MinActive, etc, with no success.
    Here is some sample code that I am testing:
    package web;
    import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
    import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
    import javax.naming.*;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    import java.sql.ResultSet;
    import java.sql.Statement;
    import java.util.Properties;
    public class ConnectionPool {
    String message = "Not Connected";
    public void init() {
    OracleConnection conn = null;
    ResultSet rst = null;
    Statement stmt = null;
    try {
    Context initContext = new InitialContext();
    Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
    OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
    message = "Here.";
         String user = ds.getUser();
    if (envContext == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
    if (ds == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
    if (ds != null) {
    message = "Trying to connect...";
    conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
    Properties prop = new Properties();
    prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xxx");
    if (conn != null) {
    message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
              conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
    stmt = conn.createStatement();
    rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT username, server from v$session where username is not null");
    while (rst.next()) {
    message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; Server: " + rst.getString(2);
    rst.close();
    rst = null;
    stmt.close();
    stmt = null;
    conn.close(); // Return to connection pool
    conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
    // Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
    // and the connection is returned to the pool
    if (rst != null) {
    try {
    rst.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    rst = null;
    if (stmt != null) {
    try {
    stmt.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    stmt = null;
    if (conn != null) {
    try {

    public String getMessage() {
    return message;
    I'm using a utility to repeatedly call a JSP page that uses this class and displays the message variable. This utility allows me to specify the number of concurrent web requests and an overall number of requests to try. While that is running, I look at V$SESSION in Oracle and occassionaly, I will see a brief entry for app1 or adavey depending on the timing of my query and how far along the code has processed in this example. So it seems that I am only using one connection at a time and not a true connection pool.
    Is it possible that I need to use the oci driver instead of the thin driver? I've looked at the javadoc for oci and the OCIConnectionPool has a setPoolConfig method to set initial, min and max connections. However, it appears that this can only be set via Java code and not as a parameter in my context.xml resource file. If I have to set it each time I get a database connection, it seems like it sort of defeats the purpose of having Tomcat maintain the connection pool for me and that I need to implement my own connection pool. I'm a newbie to this technology so I really don't want to go this route.
    Any advice on setting up a proper connection pool that works with Tomcat and Oracle proxy sessions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Alan

    Well I did some more experiments and I am able to at least create a connection pool within my example code:
    package web;
    import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
    import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
    import javax.naming.*;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    import java.sql.ResultSet;
    import java.sql.Statement;
    import java.util.Properties;
    public class ConnectionPool {
    String message = "Not Connected";
    public void init() {
    OracleConnection conn = null;
    ResultSet rst = null;
    Statement stmt = null;
    try {
    Context initContext = new InitialContext();
    Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
    OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
    message = "Here.";
         String user = ds.getUser();
    if (envContext == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
    if (ds == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
    if (ds != null) {
    message = "Trying to connect...";
    boolean cache_enabled = ds.getConnectionCachingEnabled();
    if (!cache_enabled){
    ds.setConnectionCachingEnabled(true);
    Properties cacheProps = new Properties();
    cacheProps.put("InitialLimit","5");
         cacheProps.put("MinLimit","5");
    cacheProps.put("MaxLimit","10");
    ds.setConnectionCacheProperties(cacheProps);
              conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
    Properties prop = new Properties();
    prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xyz");
    if (conn != null) {
    message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
              conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
    stmt = conn.createStatement();
    //rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT 'Success obtaining connection' FROM DUAL");
    rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT user, SYS_CONTEXT ('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER') from dual");
    while (rst.next()) {
    message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; sys_context: " + rst.getString(2);
    message += "; Was cache enabled?: " + cache_enabled;
    rst.close();
    rst = null;
    stmt.close();
    stmt = null;
    conn.close(OracleConnection.PROXY_SESSION); // Return to connection pool
    conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
    // Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
    // and the connection is returned to the pool
    if (rst != null) {
    try {
    rst.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    rst = null;
    if (stmt != null) {
    try {
    stmt.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    stmt = null;
    if (conn != null) {
    try {
    conn.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    conn = null;
    public String getMessage() {
    return message;
    In my context.xml file, I tried to specify the same Connection Cache Properties as attributes, but no luck:
    <Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
    debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
    <Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
    type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
    driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
    factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
    url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
    user="app1" password="app1"
    ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" MinLimit="5" MaxLimit="20"/>
    </Context>
    These attributes seemed to have no effect:
    ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" ; also tried "true"
    MinLimit="5"
    MaxLimit="20"
    So basically if I could find some way to get these attributes set within the context.xml file instead of my code, I would be a happy developer :-)
    Oh well, it's almost Miller time here on the east coast. Maybe a few beers will help me find the solution I'm looking for.

  • Installation of CRM 2007 in Windows with oracle and cluster environment

    Dear Experts,
    We are about to start the installation of CRM 2007 (ABAP+JAVA) with
    Oracle 10g on Windows x64 in cluster environment. In the SAPINST dialog
    box under High availability option, I could see installation options like ASCS
    Instance, SCS Instance, First MSCS node, Database Instance, Additional
    MSCS Node, Enqueue Replication Server, Central Instance and Dialog
    Instance.
    I have gone through the installation guide. I have below queries
    regarding the same. Can you please clarify the same
    1) Our requirement is we want to have an ACTIVE-ACTIVE cluster setup
    with sap service running in Node A and Database running in Node B. Can
    we have this setup in ABAP+JAVA setup
    2) Also,in the SAPINST dialog box as said above except last two
    (Central and Dialoge instance) as per standard installation guide are
    to be installed in shared drives as per the requirement. But, central
    and dialog are said to be installed locally on any one node in MSCS or
    in separate server. As per my understanding Dialog instance will be
    used for load balancing which we do not require now. Hence I feel this
    is optional in our case. Where as Central Instance I am not able to
    understand why this option is for? Is it mandatory to be installed or optional. If
    so, when I installed it in one of the MSCS node the incase of failover
    how does it effect the system. As per my understanding ASCS and SCS
    comprise central instance.
    Please clarify and thanks in advance.

    I have read about this issue in the newsgroup and I know it seems to be a bug
    in Oracle Driver.
    So, as a workaround, I'm trying to use the Oracle's prepared statement cache features
    in order to avoid creations of new statements for each query. I noticed that the
    WebLogic prepared statement cache does not work properly, because I put a value
    of 10 but when inspecting with WLShell it haven't any hit in the statement cache.
    In order to use Oracle's prepared statement cache I have to enable it in the physical
    connection, but I don't found in weblogic.jar the class weblogic.jdbc.extensions.WLConnection
    which have the method getVendorConnection. In the documentation available at http://edocs.beasys.com/wls/docs61/javadocs/index.html
    there is a reference to that class and it haven't any notice since which service
    pack it becomes available.
    So, is there any way to obtain the physical connection?
    Can anybody help me about any of these problems??
    Thanks in advance.
    Jesús.

    The line of code that brings up this exception is:
    multiReq = new

    Depends on what you want to achieve?
    Usually when you want Enterprise Users (users that are managed by a directory instead of a schema) you will perform other steps than in a scenario where you need some attributes from the AD.

    ID is a NUMBER and id.toString() is not a number, for
    example it ca be a null reference.
    well we tryed also this version :
    ps.setLong(1, id.longValue());
    moreover the exception wasn't thrown for the value of id :56 but was thrown for the value of id : 88. Hence I think it is a case of something other than my code.

  • Connection Problem with Oracle and Tomcat.

    I was able to enter Oracle using scott/tiger when I did not connect Tomcat.But when I connect tomcat I am unable to log onto Oracle.
    When I logged to the database then I tried to start the Tomcat but it gave an exception.So I went to the task manager and ended the running processes like isqlplus.exe, oracle.exe, tomcat.exe, apache.exe.When I ended all the processes except oracle.exe, tomcat gave an exception. But when I ended oracle.exe Tomcat started working but Oracle stopped working. I don't know what the problem is.
    Can anyone help me out?
    Thanks,

    Yeah sure. Is there a SQL or PL/SQL related question in there.. somewhere.. hiding away?
    After all, you do realise that the name of this forum is SQL and PL/SQL and that it deals with the SQL and PL/SQL languages in the Oracle server.. right?

  • A lot of problems with Oracle and ASP

    Hi, i need to develop a system using ASP and Oracle. I should have started this about 3 weeks ago and I can't in any way connect these 2 technologies.
    First, I tried through ODBC and it could not be done.
    Next, I tried through OLEDB and when I thought that the problem was found...
    set objSessao = Server.CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")
    set objConexao = OraSession.DbOpenDatabase("mozart", "jacto_revendas/bolinha",cint(0))
    These 2 lines seems to be correct, then I had the error "access to object denied", and I read in some forum that it was because some DLLs of %oracle_home%\bin were without permission. I scanned all of them, and gave full access. OK. Then, an error ASP 0177 (error accessing DLL library) appeared and I could not find solution over the Internet.
    And the incredible part is that the error only happens as soon as I start the OS... the second time I try, the script stops and does not show any errors or results... the page keeps processing without an end.
    Please, I can't find anyone that can help me... you are my last hope...
    thanks
    Mozart

    I agree with your suggestion about needing more documentation for APS.NET & Oracle connections. And so the next question is who knows where to find such docs? I've scoured the Oracle & MSDN sites, and have found nothing addressing these permission problems -- at least nothing that fixes the problem. See my recent postings about "access denied exceptions". I've been trying for several weeks to get it fixed, w/o success although I think I'm getting closer & just about to give the ASPNET user total control over EVERYTHING in the oracle home directory tree.

  • High User IO with Oracle and IBM XIV Storage

    Hi
    We are using oracle 10.2.0.4 with IBM XIV storage and we have very high user IO in the database. We faced this issue after migrating our storage from SCV to XIV. Almost all our DB backgroud jobs are running for long hours after this migration.
    Is there any oracle parameters require to modify to reduce this user IO? Any parameter modification required in XIV? Please advice

    There is no such parameter, sy is yanking your chain. This is the typical response when people ask for a solution akin to a magic switch they can flip to have the database run faster.
    The long version is that without supplying technical information the best you can hope for is WAG (Wild Ass Guesses) as to where your problem may be found. Did you raise a support request with IBM? Did you run any statistics? What have you checked so far?
    You will need to help provide information for people to help you in a free volunteer forum.
    If you want a magic switch solution without doing any work yourself there are plenty of consultancy firms who will happily solve your problem for money.

    "The Old oracle.jdbc.driver Package Will Go Away Soon
    If you still have existing applications that use the
    old oracle.jdbc.driver
    package, now is the time to convert your code."
    And who is so foolish as to use concrete types
    instead of java.sql and javax.sql interfaces or embed
    driver class names in their code? Well, anybody who's more interested in optimal performance than being generic, and willing to put up with the headaches of that, such as providers of high-performance OR mapping tools or someone tuning a very heavily used bit. Or anybody working in a committed Oracle-only shop. It's not a one-size-fits-all world...
    Again, Oracle is evolving the standard. No, the standard is Sun's java.sql interface.Yea, Sun evolved Java, and Oracle is recommending the use of Datasources to keep step with that evolution...

    using <service name> instead. The alternate syntax
    for the URL is:

    This has been true for as long as Oracle has had a

    changed.
    Yes it has and Oracle says it has, here:
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/java.101/b10979/urls.htm#BEIJFHHB
    Wherein it is written, in Section 3.2.1 of the Oracle� Database JDBC Developer's Guide and Reference, the sesction on the several supported URL formats for Oracle 10.1
    Notes:
    * Oracle Service IDs are no longer supported at 10g Release 1 (10.1).
    They go on to list three URL styles supported:
    Oracle Net connection descriptor - like an entry in tnsnames.ora (ick!)
    Thin-style service name - the most common, what was quoted above.
    LDAP syntax - for having an LDAP service resolve the database for you
    However, in the old 8.1.7 JDBC documentation, here:
    http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/A87860_01/doc/java.817/a83724/basic1.htm#1006213
    Oracle lists support for:
    Net8 connection descriptor - Net8 is the old name for Oracle Net
    Thin-style sid name - what was quoted in the post to which I first responded.
    Thin-style sid name syntax has a colon between the port and the sid; thin-style service name syntax has a forward slash between the port and the service name. SIDs and service names are not the same thing, although they serve the same purpose in a URL (connecting you to the right instance) and often have the same value. However, a SID for a database is set at DB creation time, is unique to the DB, and cannot be changed easily. Multiple service names can be configured for a database, and they can easily be changed (if you're the DBA). Oracle is providing an additional leval of abstraction by moving to service names, to support additional features and choices. While many installations don't need all that and have in essence ignored the distinction bewteen SID and service name, some multi-database projects can benefit from it.

    StuDerby, I think you should look into this a bit
    more. Your advice is far from optimal, IMO.
    Yeah, I could've taken the time to write a more generic, newbie friendly repsonse; instead, I lifted directly from the Oracle documentation that was cited earlier since newbies seem to have an aversion to reading documentation.

  • Installation with Oracle and Solaris 9

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm trying to install EP 6.0 sp8 with WAS 6.40 (java) on a Oracle 9.2.0.4 DB and Solaris 9 OS.
    I have installed this EP version with SQL/Win without problems, but now I have several errors.
    Somebody has installed this successfully ?   Any clue would be helpful.
    I have 2 errors by the moment:
    1) ERROR at line 1:
       ORA-00988: missing or invalid password(s)
       ORA-06512: at line 17
    2) Some problem related with network adapters (My server has 4 network adapters)
    thanks a lot for your help !
    Regards from Mexico,
    Diego Hernández

    Hi Diego,
    you should edit the /etc/hosts file.
    Change the frontend ip adress to the servername and delete other entries for this ip adress(eg XXX-b,XXXX-c).
    Start a new installation(even Database)->then you won't get different profile Startup Scripts.
    Regards,
    Toni
