How presents LUNs to OVM server 2.2.2

Hello Everybody
I have a doubt of how present my LUNs in OVM Server 2.2.2
The configuration is the next:

Alex,
Please review "Oracle VM 2.2 Fibre Channel & iSCSI SAN and NFS Back-end Storage Configurations" located at: http://itnewscast.com/chapter-6-oracle-vm-22-san-iscsi-and-nfs-backend-storage-configurations
This chapter of the The Underground Oracle VM Manual will walk you through your SAN configurations/setup.

How to configure local disk on OVM Server as storage space to create VMs

Hello,
We have installed OVM Server 3.1.1 on a machine that has 250 GB of Hard disk space [Single disk].
While installing used an option - Remove all partitions and create a new default partition layout.
Around 4GB has been used and remaining 246 GB is left as free space.
From OVM Manager - the server is discovered but didn't discovered the physical disk [i.e. remaining 246 GB raw disk space].
Can someone help me to understand how to use local disk as storage space for creating and running VM's.
Thanks
Srinivas

You can? You've used every conceivable BIOS out there? You must really be full of yourself. There is absolutely no BIOS that I know of that gives this basic function. BIOSs do not "hard partition" anything. A "BIOS" is not made for such things. Do you even know what "BIOS" stands for?
I wonder why there is some many wanting to do this and are having problems.... I mean if it is such a straight forward thing to do..... It must be down right "intuitive".
You maybe speaking of a RAID "BIOS" but you obviously think you're not. Some motherboards have integrated RAID abilities. Intel RST comes to mind... BUT this isn't a feature of a MOTHERBOARD BIOS.
I've got some $50,000 servers that will not break a single hard drive up into multiple logical drives..... Now, I haven't worked on a "Stinkpad" for many years. Don't want to. However, I have never seen one that would do what you're saying you're doing.
You maybe trying to help.... but you're leading people down a wrong path.
Its just as easy to run virtual box and use the virtual box templates for Oracle VM. In fact, its more practical if you want to run Oracle VM on a laptop for testing purposes than blowing everything away and attempting to setup different LUNS on a single hard drive.
For your review...
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-admin/configure-vm-templates-1656261.html
Although it's more reliable to use a separate location (such as an NFS share) for a storage repository, you can use a local disk of your Oracle VM Server instead, thus taking advantage of the local storage option. Beware, though: Oracle VM Server 3.0 doesn't allow you to utilize the unused space on the physical disk it's installed on. For local storage, you'll need at least one more physical disk. In other words, you'll need a total of two disks at minimum on your Oracle VM Server host if you want to use local storage. In practice, though, local storage is not a primary use case. The major downside to this approach is that local storage, by definition, cannot be shared between different servers.

Install OVM server 3.2.1 on iSCSI LUN

Hello friends,
I have a Cisco Blade and would like to boot OVM server from an iSCSI lun. I create a LUN from a SAN and presented the lun to the blade. When the server boots up, it sees the iSCSI lun just fine but when I tried to install OVM server 3.2.1, it did not detect that LUN. I tried to install Oracle Linux 6.3 and it sees the LUN ok. Is there a way to make OVM server to see that LUN.
thanks,
TD

I have done to many oel and ovs install lately such that they are blurring together...
On the OVM 3.2.1 install watch closely for a place to add support for non local storage. I remember seeing a small prompt in some of the installs but it may have been from some of the OEL installs (I have also been doing OEL 4, 5, & 6) & not OVM.
Sorry I can't remember right now. If I get a moment and try to run the install process I will and report back if no one else does.

How to delete the record in the file present in the application server?

Hi,
I have two questions.
i) How can I delete a record based on some condition in the recordx in the file that is present in the application server?
ii) How can I lock the users whiel one user is accessing the file on the application server?
Thanks in advance.
Suvan

Hi,
If u want a frequent deletion this approach to delete a record from a file will havee unnecesary copy of records from one file to another and deletion of one file and renaming activities.
Instead what u can do is Add and field del_flag to ur record structure.
If u want to delete the record from a file just mark this del_flag as 'X'.
While processing u can have a loop like
loop at it_XXX where del_flag <> 'X'.
endloop.
This will logically delete the record.
When u r to finish the application at that time only perform this copying / deleting / and renaing activity
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Nitin

OVM Server 3.2.8 - LUN Larger Than Allowed By The Host Adapter

Heya,
We have 2 blades that where recently updated to OVM Server 3.2.8. We had 2x100GB LUN's assigned to those servers ... however, when trying to to discover them we get the following :
Oct 27 14:34:43 XXXXXXXXXX kernel: scsi: host 0 channel 3 id 0 lun4194304 has a LUN larger than allowed by the host adapter
Oct 27 14:34:43 XXXXXXXXXX kernel: scsi: host 0 channel 3 id 0 lun4194560 has a LUN larger than allowed by the host adapter
These blades where previously on 3.1.1 and where updated along with the OVM Manager. Everything is working fine on the blades and VM's there. We have had storage assigned previously from the SAN but when on 3.1.1.
Any idea what needs to be changed ?
Regards

What make of HBA is this? This LUN numbers are actually unusually high. And what storage HW provides these LUNs?

How many time to install/configure OVM Manager and OVM Server ?

Hello,
I wish to have your experience feedback on the mean time needed to install both OVM Server and OVM Manager in a production environement, with e.g : 2 CPUs, 4 G of RAM, or for 4 CPUs and 8 G of RAM.
Regards,
Lionel

Not enough information. XE is not supported in a production environment so you will need to install a SE or EE version of Oracle Database. I would personally use EE because the Virtual Manager comes with a single use license that covers running the VM Manager on either edition. No extra cost to run EE over SE.
You can use kicstart to rapidly deploy any VM Server. If you get your scripting right... it takes less than 10 minutes.

Disaster recovery of remaining OVM server

Hi,
I hope some of you can help me with some disaster recovery tests I have to do shortly.
The environment has 2 OVM servers: servre1 and server2 in a server pool.
Server1 has the cluster filesystem shared to it via multiipathing, and in turn, server1 shares the repository and cluster fs with server2 via NFS.
In the meantime, there are other LUNS shared with just server2, which are being replicated with the repository and cluster fs that is currently being used.
If server1 "dies" and this is easy to simulate as just shutting it down, it will stop sharing the repository and fs with server2, the server pool will have errors, and so will server 1 (it cannot be contacted), and so will server2 (it has lost access to repository and cluster fs).
Oracle documentation explains very clearly how to add and remove server pools and servers neatly, but it makes no mention of how to clean up a server in order to reuse in on a new server pool, with a new repository, in this case, the replicated LUNs that were only in server2.
Has any of you done something similar to this? Do I have to go into the OVM Manager database at row level to delete every mention of the old repository? Is there a way of cleaning up the server2 for reuse (other than reinstalling)? In OVM 2.2 there was a cleanup.py script, but I didn´t find such script in 3.0.3...
Any suggestions on how to test this will be welcome. If I have overlooked some useful documentation on this, please point me to it...
Regards,
T.

Using "nested" Mount Points within Mount Points to add additional LUNs to a server

I realize that this might or might not be common and I haven't read or seen anything about this. So here goes...
No clustering. Just a strightup adding LUNs to a server mount point.
I have no issues adding a lun to a mount point (folder on the C-Drive) called MountPoint1. I can build a folder within MountPoint1 and add another LUN to a mountpoint within the first called NestedMountPoint1. I can build another folder within NestedMountPoint1
and add another LUN to a mountpoint within the second called NestedMountPoint2.
c:\MountPoiint1 (500GB)
|-NestedMountPoint1 (300GB)
|-NestedMountPoint2 (300GB)
First, do people do this? (Is it a normal practice?) (Recommended?)
Second, If it is a normal practice, Is there a limit on how many you can nest?
I can see doing this to add storage to a drive. BUT...

Hi,
A mount point is just a logical way to present drives to a system without using drive letters. You can nest mount points, but it is recommended to use the root (host) volume exclusively for mount points. The root volume is the volume that is hosting
the mount points. This greatly reduces the time that it takes to restore access to the mounted volumes if you have to run a chkdsk. This also reduces the time that it takes to restore from backup on the host volume.
For more detailed information, please refer to the articles below:

Adding an OVM server back into OVM Manager after a reload

We have created a sandbox environment to test Oracle virtualization and had 2 physical servers setup. One running Oracle OVM and the other Oracle Linux. The Oracle Linux box had OVM Manager installed and was using local storage for the repository.
After about a month of running the Oracle Linux box was reloaded without saving any of the OVM Manager configuration information. After reloading the Oracle Linux box and installing OVM Manager my first issue was adding the OVM server back into a pool. We were getting the error that it was already being managed by another host. After a quick search of the Oracle forum I found a post suggesting that we stop the ovs-agent on the OVM box and remove a file.
These were the commands:
# service ovs-agent stop
# rm /etc/ovs-agent/db/server
# service ovs-agent start
After doing this I was able to discover and add the server into a pool. The next issue was when I went to look at the virtual machines hosted on the OVM machine. All 6 of the virtual machines that were created now show as "orphan_004fb0000060000...". In digging around I noticed that the repository for the local storage was not setup so when I go to try add the local disk back as a repository and I select "create a data repository: select physical disk" it comes back as blank.
If I click the storage tab and look under local file systems I see the disk and it has location repository specified and server listed under presented servers.
I am thinking the mapping is somehow messed up after adding the host back to a new OVM Manager and I need to relink the storage to the repository but am a little lost as to how to accomplish this.
I am trying to avoid reloading the entire OVM server so I don't lose the work already done with the existing virtual machines.

To answer your second question first, It is an unclustered server pool.
When I run the refresh I get an error. Below are the details:

How to change your Administration Server password when you're locked out

How to change your Administration Server password when you're locked out
The Netscape server products are all managed by a single administration
server, which gives you a web forms-based interface you can use to
configure them, start/stop them, check their logs, and so forth.

There are three levels of protection that keep the general public from
being able to get into your administration server and mess up the
configuration of any Netscape servers you have installed:

<OL>
<LI> Obscurity: Your administration server can run on any port you'd
like (usually something between 81 and 30,000), so if an attacker
doesn't know what port to find your admin server on, he can't get
into it.
<LI> Host restrictions: You can tell your admin server to only allow
connections from specific hosts, and to reject all other hosts.

<LI> Password protection: Even if a user connects to your admin server
from a valid host, he won't be allowed to get into even the first
page unless he presents a valid username and password.
</OL>

If you, the legitimate administrator of your web server, are unable to
access the administration server (if you forgot your password or the
admin port number or if you accidentally locked your own site out),
then here is how to get past each of these levels of protection:

<OL>
<LI> If you don't remember what port your administration server is
running on, just look in your "ns-admin.conf" file, which is in
the "admserv" directory under your Netscape server directory.
(For 1.x web servers on Windows NT, run "regedt32" and go to the
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Netscape\Administration" section).
You will see a "Port" entry there that specifies what port your
admin server is on. You can change this value if you want your
admin server to run on a different port, but make sure you restart
the admin server after you change the value.

<LI> If your admin server is complaining "Unauthorized host" when you
try to connect to it, then you can open it up to all sites by
going into the "ns-admin.conf" file or the "Administration"
section of your NT registry, as described above, and deleting the
lines for "Hosts" and "Addresses" (either one of those might not
be present) then restarting your admin server (on Unix run
"stop-admin" then "start-admin"; on NT go into the Services
control panel and stop/start the "Netscape Administration" or
"Netscape Admin Server" service). You will then be able to get
back into the admin server, where you can then try new settings
for your host and address restrictions if you wish.

<LI> If you have forgotten the password to your admin server and now
you can't log into your admin pages, all is not lost! Go into
your "ns-home" directory, and into the "admserv" directory under
that. You should find an "admpw" text file containing a simgle
line of text, something like this:
admin:lnOVeixulqkmU
The first part of that line is the name of your admin account
(usually just "admin"), and the second part is your admin
password, encrypted. Edit this file to remove the encrypted
password so that your file looks like this:
admin:
Then shut down your admin server, bring it back up again, and log
into your admin server but don't give any password. It should let
you in, at which point you can then go to the appropriate
configuration page to set a new admin password, and then you're
back in business.
</OL>
Note that because it is so easy to change the admin password this
way, it's good to periodically make certain that your admin
password file and your web server's configuration files are not
left world-writable, and that only trusted people have access to
them. (By default they're not world-writable, but it's good to
make sure of this from time to time.)

If you mean that yu forgo the password for yur encrypted backup then you can only:
Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.

How to give the application server file path in the module pool programming

Hi,
     Could somebody help me how to provide the application server file path in module pool programming once the logo is uploaded to sap system.
For eg I have imported a logo name owens into sap system by using transaction se78; now I need to call the path in the below url,
if container2 is initial.
CREATE OBJECT CONTAINER2
EXPORTING
    CONTAINER_NAME              = 'PICTURE_CONTAINER2'.
CREATE OBJECT PICTURE2
EXPORTING
    PARENT = CONTAINER2.
CALL METHOD PICTURE2->SET_DISPLAY_MODE
EXPORTING
    DISPLAY_MODE = CL_GUI_PICTURE=>display_mode_fit_center
EXCEPTIONS
    ERROR        = 1.
CALL METHOD PICTURE2->LOAD_PICTURE_FROM_URL
EXPORTING
    URL    = " ? "
EXCEPTIONS
    ERROR = 1
    Others = 2.
endif.
Thanks in advance

hi Deepu,
Use FM '/SAPDMC/LSM_F4_FRONTEND_FILE' for fetching the data from the application server path/presentation server path

Cluster Not Available error when booting OVM server DOM0 from USB

Hi all,
I have been wanting to run OVM 2.2 from a USB stick for a while now. I ran through the install CD today and saw there was a 'minimal USB install' option on the installation screen. So I plugged in a 4GB USB stick, rebooted, and ran the USB install.
After a while, the install completed, OVM booted up perfectly it seemed, and I was happy.
The server had no local storage apart from this USB stick as we are going to be hooking it up to an iSCSI target for guest VM storage.
This was a new lab setup, so I got the VM Manager running on another system, connected to the USB booted OVM server, and went to create a pool.
Running the 'test connection' that worked fine.
Trying to add the pool - failed. I got the error 'Cluster Not Available'
On the OVM server I did a repos.py -l and nothing gets listed.
I understand that for HA you need a repository with shared storage. However, before I have used these same install CDs with a singe local hard disk, to get OVM server running, and it did so fine.
So what's different with the USB disk install that means you don't get a repository?
Do I have to create a special repository LUN, manually connect the OVM server to this, and then use repos.py to create it?
Cheers,
Jeff

Ok I have read, re-read related parts of the underground manual and have hit a brick wall with the 'simple' task of setting up a NIC for dedicated iSCSI traffic. The manual does not cover this task in the iSCSI SAN section.
So I'm in a catch 22.
My OVM server boots up, with it's single management NIC configured, but once booted - I don't want to connect to the iSCSI target via this network - I need it completely closed off.
I want to use another NIC (or bond of two) for dedicated iSCSI traffic to and from the OVM Server.
However, the underground manual strangely only seems to cover a single NIC configuration! It looks like he assumes you are going to be running iSCSI on your management NIC, which I can only think is incredibly bad practice.
I have installed OVM with the linux asknetwork - this did not give me the option to configure additional interfaces.
I then manually edited /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 on the OVMServer, restarted network, restarted the entire box - I can ping my new NIC / IP locally from within the OVM server, but I can not connect to the iSCSI target, nor can I ping the iSCSI NIC on the OVM server from the target.
This is such a simple thing to try to achieve - super frustrating...

H/W of Win7-- VirtBox-- OVM Serv -- EBS/lin64bit

What is the best practice to follow if I have to install Virtualbox, OVM Serv, Linux, EBS, Weblogic,SOA, GRCC, GRCM etc. Should I create a separate partition for each and of what sizes ?
I got a desktop 8GB/1TB and laptop 4GB/500 GB + external 500GB. What should I install where for better performance. How much RAM should I allocate to Virtbox, OVM serv etc.

What is the best practice to follow if I have to install Virtualbox, OVM Serv, Linux, EBS, Weblogic,SOA, GRCC, GRCM etc. Should I create a separate partition for each and of what sizes ?It is better if you have separate partition for each VM.
For the size, it depends on what you are installing -- See the hardware requirements in the installation manual for each product for details.
I got a desktop 8GB/1TB and laptop 4GB/500 GB + external 500GB. What should I install where for better performance.

Can EBS in OVM server interface with second OVM Server or VMware ?

Pl. let me know which ones possible:
1. Win7 laptop --> Install VMware/VirtualBox ---> Install one OVM Server with EBS & GRCC and other OVM Server with GRCM & GRCI. Can they work in sych with each other (send/receive/communicate etc like various modules do within a ebs suite)?
2. Win7 laptop --> Install VMware/VirtualBox ---> Install one OVM Server with EBS & GRCC 64 bit and other OVM Server with GRCM & GRCI (all 32 bit). Can they work in sych with each other (send/receive/communicate etc like various modules do within a ebs suite .. 64 and 32 bit)?

And no I will always be using just one physical machine. And if i'm running GRCC and it needs any data from GRCM or ebs it should be available (like it would be if I had two physical machines/servers for EGRCC/EBS & EGRCM networked together).You should be able to connect between the VMs.
1) So pl. recheck the the sequence and let me know how to go about it without loosing win7.As long as you do not use Oracle VM you should be fine.
2) Can 2 Oracle VM Servers run within the same VMware or Virtual box?
(say one with EGRCC/EBS & other with EGRCM)You are not clear about this, if you use 2 different VMWare or VirtualBox machines then you should be fine.
3) In case (2) above is not possible can I have 2 VirtualBoxes on/in same physical machine running win7 ?
(Two VirtualBox/VMwares - VirtualBox/VMware No 1 running Oracle VM Server with EBS/EGRCC & VirtualBox No 2 running EGRCM).Yes.
Thanks,
Hussein
