Jumbo Frames support for Oracle VM 3.0

Hi all
Is Jumbo frames supported for Oracle VM 3.0?
I would like to configure for 2 ways of usage :
1.For NFS usage (against NetApp server). The repository will be located on NFS.
2. For Management Network,i.e dedicated network between the OV Manager and OV Servers.
Thanks,
Rudi

  • Adding jumbo frame support into an existing Ethernet network

    I have a remote site with 40 users that connect back to our main site via two point to point T-1’s. These users connect to an Exchange server (DMZ), Sybase databases on Sun servers (Internal network), and access the Internet via the main site.
    I have installed a new WS-2970G-24TS-E switch into the network at this remote site. I have connected all of the designers (total of 10) Apple G5 workstations and two Apple Xserve’s to this switch. I have also configured the “system jumbo MTU” to 9000 bytes on the 2970. I have not yet enabled jumbo frames on the Xserve’s or the G5’s since I am unsure of what the effect on the network might be. I imagine it could range from dropped packets to crashing the router.
    I would like to enable jumbo frame support on these devices since they transfer hundreds of gigabytes of data on their local network. But if I do this, what will be the affect when they attempt to visit web sites or connect to the Exchange server?
    How have you guys worked with this type of scenario?
    The address space for this site is a /25 of one of our class C’s.
    Please see the attached Visio diagram that outlines the connection points throughout the network.
    Thank you

    Best practice here is to segment your Jumbo Frame servers on their own VLANs for Jumbo supported systems only.
    As a post here has already mentioned, Path MTU discovery will tell the systems on the Jumbo VLANs to keep the frames under 1500 when talking to a non-Jumbo VLAN.

  • Airport Extreme with Gigabit Ethernet - Does it have jumbo frame support?

    Please, can I get definite answer to this question? I do not need speculations as I read some reviews already. Can we have Apple finally put complete specification of the product rather than "popular one" with attachement of protocol numbers?
    I just need simple answer possibly from Apple engineering team to the following questions:
    1. Does current Airport Extreme have support for jumbo frames (everything above 1500bytes per frame)? (if one does not know what that is them perhaps understanding acronym "MTU" can help a bit)
    2. If there is support then what is the maximum supported size of jumbo frame? (Some products do not go above 6k and I read some statistics that traffic somwhere is usually 66% at about 4k jumbo frames and above that there is not much...)
    3. If there is no support then does Apple plan on update for this (firmware or hardware) in the future?
    Please, do not tell me that someoene ran something with jumbo frame and it worked as I tried yesterday LaCie Ethernet drive with supposedly setup (I set it myself) of jumbo frame 4k and on soft reboot of the drive it worked when connected to Airp[ort Extreme, but after hard reboot the disk is not visible anymore. I will recover the disk, but I need to understand if I have chance of using jumbo frames that tremendously improve performance with large files (e.g. try movies stored for AppleTV on network drive) when using Airport Extreme with its gigabit Ethernet... or that is just Gigabit Ethernet for product marketing purposes only.
    I just need reliable answer by product specification that should be on paper at Apple, but it is not so I hope that one of guys here has access to some engineering team.

  • Jumbo frame support with BGP MSS size

    Hi All,
    I am working at small SP. we are going to enable Jumbo Frame support from end to end. Our core segment have MPLS cloud and packet size could be able support  up over 9000 already. Since our Core segment router  are running pure BGP with our edge/access segment router , when I enable jumbo frame support on their  interface level, I still can see BGP MSS size is 1260 right now. so my question, do I need  increase BGP MSS size between our core router  and edge router for transiting our SP cloud  traffic packet ?
    many thanks!
    Eric

    hi Harold,
    I have other question about MSS size for IPv4 and IPv6 BGP session, if the physical link MTU size is 1500 ( same as 1514 on ASR 9K platform), why IPv6 BGP MSS is 1240 and IPv6 BGP MSS is 1220? As I only understand IPv4 headr 20, tcp header 20, but didn't match these MSS size number, I am sure I mis-understand some value in between, could you please let me know how we get 1240 and 1220?
    many thanks!

  • Enable Jumbo Frame Support On UCS

    Could someone direct me to the documentation for the proper way to enable jumbo frame support on UCS?  I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem and have configured MTU of 9000 from ESX running on a blade to an NFS server off a Nexus 5k.  I have good documentation for configuring jumbo frame support on the Nexus 5k and on ESX but nothing really specific for UCS.
    For Nexus 5k:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus5000/sw/configuration/nxos/Cisco_Nexus_5000_Series_NX-OS_Software_Configuration_Guide_chapter33.html#con_1150612

    policy-map type network-qos jumbo
      class type network-qos class-default
        mtu 9216
    system qos
      service-policy type network-qos jumbo
    For ESXi:
    esxcfg-vswitch -m 9000 vSwitch0
    esxcfg-vswitch -A IP_Storage vSwitch0
    esxcfg-vswitch -v 31 -p IP_Storage vSwitch0
    esxcfg-vmknic -a -i 10.254.31.2 -n 255.255.255.192 -m 9000 "IP_Storage"
    Testing:
    I have been able to ping (with large payload) the NFS host interface from a temporary vlan interface on the N5k.  I cannot do the same to the ESX hosts or between hosts.
    Thanks,
    -R

    What network adapter are you using? M81KR or the M71KR's or any other?
    The MTU is set on a per CoS basis in UCS. If you do not have any QoS policy defined for the vNIC that is going to the vSwitch, then the traffic is going to Best-Effort Class. All you need to do to enable jumbo frames is to enter the MTU to be 9000 in the MTU pulldown for whatever class the traffic is going to.
    Its also given in the user guide -
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_computing/ucs/sw/gui/config/guide/1.3.1/UCSM_GUI_Configuration_Guide_1_3_1_chapter18.html
    MTU drop-down list
    The maximum transmission unit for the channel. This can be:
    An integer between 1500 and 9216. This value corresponds to the maximum packet size.
    fc—A predefined packet size of 2240.
    normal—A predefined packet size of 1500.
    Note
    This field is always set to fc for Fibre Channel.

  • KT6 FISR (5188) - Jumbo frames support

    Hi,
    I have the KT6 FISR motherboard up and running with a gigabit network (after a dodgy network cable dropped my speed to 100Mbps ) and was wondering if anyone knew whether it supports jumbo frames. Have searched the spec sheets and also broadcom's website without any joy. There are no settings in the 'configure' section of the hardware.
    Anyone?
    Mike

    Taken from the netgear site - http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101539.asp:
    What is the Jumbo Frame Supported by Switches and Adapters?
    Ethernet traffic moves in units called frames. The maximum size of frames is called the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU). When a network device gets a frame larger than its MTU, the data is fragmented (broken into smaller frames) or dropped. Historically, Ethernet has a maximum frame size of 1500 bytes, so most devices use 1500 as their default MTU. An Ethernet packet larger than 1500 bytes is called a Jumbo Frame.
    An Ethernet frame uses a fixed-size header. Since the header contains no user data, it's overhead. It is more efficient to transmit a larger frame — the overhead-to-data ratio is better.
    The performance problem arises when the MTU of one device is different than another. Indeed, casual changes to MTU to "optimize performance" are likely to have the opposite effect. See MTU, Partial Loss of Internet Connection, and Performance for an explanation of MTU problems — before considering the effects of Jumbo Frames. Also note that Jumbo Frames only help LAN performance, traffic leaving your network to the Internet is limited to packets of 1500 bytes.
    With Jumbo Frames, much larger frames than the Ethernet standard of 1500 bytes are supported. If most of your local network devices and applications can be configured for the same Jumbo Frame size, your network may benefit from large packets, little fragmentation, and little overhead. However, if there are many applications and devices on your network that already limit frames to less than 1500 bytes, Jumbo Frames might decrease your performance slightly.
    So with a switch and NAS both supporting jumbo frames it would have been good to have used them (or is that being too greedy? )

  • Quark Support for Oracle???

    I am uploading quark files in the database as BLOBs. Is there any way I can retrieve part or all components of quark file into html format and store in the database? I am using Oracle 9i with intermedia. Please also let me know the scope of Quark support for Oracle (i.e. what Oracle can do and cannot do with Quark files).
    Thanks in Advance.
    Arun Srivastav

    This question is probably best asked in the Oracle Text forum. I beleive that Quark can have a text index placed on it, and the text might be able to be filtered to HTML (not images, if supported), but the real experts on this are in the Oracle Text forum.

  • Rep. does not have support for Oracle Designer

    We're new to SCM and just useing SCM with JDeveloper.
    Sorry for newbie stupidness. Searches of this forum didn't
    turn up any hits on 21247 or other strings.
    Given: brand new install of SCM. Created a private workarea
    with RON. Attempting to use RAU to enable branching and
    versioning.
    I'm having some chicken-vs-the-egg problems. I can't
    enable branching in my shared workarea with RAU because it
    seems to want to pop up the Migration Dialogue and then
    this error occurs:
    CDR-21247: Error Cannot proceed!
    The target repository does not have support for Oracle Designer
    objects
    Any help or tip would be greatly appreciated.

    Curt,
    If you managed to create a private workarea from the RON then versioning is enabled. You would have enabled this from the RAU.
    Oracle 9i JDeveloper release candidate provides a wizard to create the workarea and private branch.
    There are now two flavours of the repository, one with Designer + file and folder support and one with just files and folder support.
    If you have no structured Designer components you do not require the Designer support to use JDeveloper with Oracle SCM.
    I suggest you try the JDeveloper wizards. The RAU also offers a menu to examine repository object state. Check that you have no invalid
    objects, they can be recompiled using the RAU.

  • Jumbo Frame support

    Hi all
    I have a vendor that wants to run an application called mirrorview to do a bandwidth test for a new application; the only requirement is that I support jumbo frames on my uplinks. I do not currently have my ports configured to support jumbo frames, are there any benefits or drawbacks to supporting jumbo frames? If so please post so I can weigh those options before I reconfigure my uplinks.
    TIA Rodney.
    FYI I am running 6500 hybrid in the core , and 3550-xx at the edge.

    If jumbo frames are enabled only on uplinks but not all the way between two systems, then the end systems won't take any advantage of jumbo frames. There is no drawbacks of jumbo frames as such as far as I know, but some pitfalls.
    Jumbo frames are any frames bigger than standard Ethernet frames (1518 bytes of user-visible part). And some platforms implement jambo frames as big as 9216 bytes (Cat 6500), while others (e.g. Cat 2950) are limited to baby-jumbo of 1530 bytes. So when you enable jumbo frames you must be sure that the size of jumbo frame is consistent across all your systems including servers and client PC's connected to your network.
    Another pitfall is that if you enable jumbo frame on any IP-layer interface this will automatically change IP MTU. If you're running OSPF and jumbo frames are enabled only on some systems connected to a subnet but not on other systems from the same subnet OSPF adjacencies will not form until you specify 'ip mtu 1500' on jumbo-enabled systems. As soon as you do this, effect of jumbo frames for IP traffic will be void (but it might still be necessary for things like MPLS). So be sure that systems on common subnet have same MTU.
    Routing problem is easy to detect, more general problem is that travelling across L2-only path there is no way for switches to send 'ICMP Fragmentation required' if packet is large then next interface MTU. This will break PMTU Discovery and since most applications usually sent packets at max MTU and DF-bit set, there will be timeouts. So again, consistent MTU across whole L2 path is important.
    By the way, if your servers and PC's are not connected via jumbo-enabled links then you unlikely see any difference by enabling jumbo frames on the uplinks because both 6500 and 3550 catalysts are capable of wirespeed performance. The only time when it makes sense to enable jumbo frames only on the core links is when you need some non-IP headers to encapsulate your max-sized IP packets (MPLS is one such example).
    As for benefits - servers running (very) heavy traffic applications (think full-feed USENET server with multiple fast peerings) may benefit from sending large portion of data in each packet, so for the same amount of data they need less number of packets. Destination system will have to handle less interrupts and overall performance may increase.
    Hope this helps.

  • Jumbo Frames support on G4 Powerbook 1.67Ghz??

    Hi - I have purchased a Thecus Nas and a gigabit switch, both support Jumbo frames. I want to use the NAS to stream video and hoped I could enable Jumbo Frames on all network devices. On my Powerbook internal NIC the Jumbo frames option is greyed out. Should I be able to configure Jumbo frames on my internal NIC? If so what am I doing wrong?
    Many Thanks in advance,
    Alan

    See the following article:
    Mac OS X 10.3 and later: "Jumbo" packet size is dimmed
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107962
    It seems that this important Gigabit Ethernet feature is not included with most Mac NICs.

  • Entity Frame work for Oracle 11g -how to build a database from Model

    Hi ,
    I m trying to build a data access layer for using both Sql Server and Oracle(not at the same time). I used Model-first approach for creating the entities and then generate Databse from it.
    I came to know from different blogs that oracle and Sql Server generation workflow and DDL generation template are different. Right now my application is supporting for Sql Server, I need to support it for Oracle too.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/issue-archive/2011/11-sep/o51odt-453447.html i m unable to get the Oracle DDl generation template and workflow.
    please Let me know,if i missed some thing and what are the changes I need to follow and exact procedure that is reuqired to support Oracle.
    Thanks,

    Try the Model-First walkthrough in the Oracle EF OBE:
    http://download.oracle.com/oll/obe/EntityFrameworkOBE/EntityFrameworkOBE.htm#t4
    It provides a more detailed step by step tutorial in generating Oracle DDL from EF.
    If you're still having problems, provide a detailed description on what errors you see and what steps you executed. Right now, it's hard to diagnose what the problem could be with so little detail.
