COMMONLY ASSERTED MYTHS ABOUT THE ORACLE MULTIPROTOCOL INTERCHANGE
Recent questions have indicated that there are some common misconceptions about
the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange. In order to clarify precisely what
is and isn't possible with the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange,
Oracle's Network Products Division hereby presents their first "Commonly
Asserted Myths about the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange".
This Q&A session is also available from Inventory, part number A16618.
Q. What is the name of the Product?
A. It is called the "Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange". We are
currently seeking this name as a trademark. The product has
inevitably been referred
to as the "MPI", but we would prefer you to use the full name.
Q. What is the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. It is an Oracle product that allows SQL*Net V2 clients running on a
specific protocol to connect to SQL*Net V2-based servers which are
running on other protocols.
The Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange enables connections
between clients and servers over unlike protocols transparently.
Q. Will the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange work with SQL*Net V1?
A. No. The Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange is designed for use with
SQL*Net V2 only and will not work with SQL*Net V1.
Q. But I heard that the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange will enable me
to connect SQL*Net V1 clients to SQL*Net V2-only servers and
vice-versa. Is this true?
A. No. The Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange does not work with SQL*Net
V1 at all. You can use both SQL*Net V1 and SQL*Net V2 in your
network at the same time, but only SQL*Net V2-based products will
be able to use the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange.
Q. My customer already has routers in their network that handle multiple
protocols. Why do they need the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. A router can route multiple protocols between two or more networks,
but the endpoints of each connection going through a router must use
the same protocol. A router is therefore different from the Oracle
MultiProtocol Interchange in that the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange can route data
between endpoints that use different protocols.
Q. My customer already has a protocol gateway in their network. Doesn't this
do the same job as an Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. Protocol gateways generally only join two protocols together in one
direction only. In contrast, the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange
supports
as many protocols as will run on a single platform and is bidirectional.
Protocol gateways also transmit data using encapsulation, which makes
them incompatible with SQL*Net in many cases.
Q. My customer has a protocol converter in their network. Will this do the
job that the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange is intended to do?
A. No. Protocol converters are also generally specific to two protocols and
are highly application specific, converting the functions performed by
one protocol into similar functions performed by another protocol. They
are generally used for terminal emulation, as they operate at low levels
within the communications stack. In contrast, the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange does not perform protocol conversion, but merely forwards the
data stream, so protocol incompatibilities are overcome. A protocol
converter will not perform the tasks that the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange can perform.
Q. My customer mentions network bridges. What have they got to do with the
Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. A bridge is a piece of hardware which connects two different types of
physical network media together. This enables protocols to run over
multiple different physical network media. The Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange works at a higher level than a bridge, and does not concern
itself with the physical network media.
Q. Does the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange work with RDBMS V6?
A. As SQL*Net V2 is not available with Oracle RDBMS V6, you need Oracle7
databases and Oracle7-based tools running SQL*Net V2 in order to take
advantage of the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange.
Q. Then how do I handle migration from SQL*Net V1 to SQL*Net V2?
A. Migration is handled by installing SQL*Net V1 and V2 simultaneously on
the server. This allows both V1 and V2 clients to connect to the server.
You can then migrate your clients when it is convenient. Clients can
also
support SQL*Net V1 and V2 simultaneously, with the version to be used
being chosen on a per-connection basis. This enables clients to continue
to access V1-only servers as well as the V2-enabled servers. Clients
using SQL*Net V2 will also be able to use the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange to connect to servers running on different protocols.
Q. Are the Oracle Protocol Adapters that I use on my client and server the
same as those used in the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. Yes, they are, but each Oracle Protocol Adapter is certified separately
for use in client/server software and the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange.
This is because the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange uses the Oracle
Protocol Adapters in a slightly different way than that of client/server
Protocol Adapters.
Q. Can I use all the Oracle Protocol Adapters available on a platform in the
Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. No. As the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange is a critical piece of
network software, each Protocol Adapter on a given platform will be
released with or without support for the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange.
Do not use Protocol Adapters in the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange
unless
they have been certified as supported. Protocols Adapters are only
supported in the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange when they have passed a
series of stringent integration tests - these tests are performed because
the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange exerts greater demands on a
protocol than
normal client and server software. Oracle Network Products Division
provides a regular matrix of supported protocols and further information
is available from the INFO mail accounts such as INFONCR and INFOPC.
Q. How many Oracle Protocol Adapters can the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange support?
A. Provided that the Oracle Protocol Adapters are certified for use with the
Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange, it can support as many as you like.
The
major benefit of the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange is that it is not
constrained to specific protocol-protocol connectivity. Every protocol
supported can be used in any combination.
Q. What can I expect in terms of performance when I use the Oracle
MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. This varies depending on platform, protocol and application. You should
expect that connection establishment times will be longer when going
through two or more protocols although the choice of protocol will
determine how much longer. Once the connection is established,
performance degradation over a single protocol connection is roughly
about 5-10%. This figure shows that the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange provides an economical alternative to multiple protocol
support on clients
and servers without major performance issues. Oracle Network Products
Division has provided a set of Performance Notes on the
Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange with the SQL*Net V2.0 Sales Kit, and this
information is also available in quickinfo.
Q. Does the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange give me fault tolerance and
enable me to bypass network failures?
A. It can provide some capabilities in this area. If you have an existing
connection and the section of the network over which the connection is
routed fails, your connection will be lost. If you then attempt to
reestablish the connection, the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange
may be able to set up your connection between the client and server using
a different route. The ability for it to do this is dependent on
where in the network the failure occurs in relation to the client and the
server.
Q. How does the routing mechanism of SQL*Net V2 work with the Oracle
MultiProtocol Interchange?
A. SQL*Net V2 and the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange implement a routing
mechanism that is used during connection establishment to determine the
optimum route between client and server. This route is based on the
current SQL*Net configuration files. When a client attempts to initiate a
connection, the routing software in SQL*Net V2 attempts to use the
optimum route, but will fallback to secondary routes if the primary route
is unavailable. In this way, SQL*Net V2 and the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange will attempt all possible routes between the client and the
server in order to establish a connection. Failure to establish a
connection will be reported to the client only if all possible routes
have
been attempted.
Q. When I am connected through the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange, will my
connection get rerouted if the machine with the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange crashes?
A. No. The routing mechanism described above is only used during
connection establishment. Once you are connected, all data between the
client and the server follow the same route. If the connection between
the
client and server is broken either because of network, hardware or
software
failure, SQL*Net V2 on the client side will report that the connection
has
been disconnected. If the client side then tries to re-connect, the
routing
software in SQL*Net V2 and the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange will
attempt to use all possible routes between client and server in order to
establish the connection. This may mean that the connection goes a
different route from the previous connection in order to bypass
failures.
Q. How does my client software know that it is using the Oracle
MultiProtocol
Interchange?
A. The client and server are unaware of the use of Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchanges in a connection, and the actual route taken between the
client
and server is transparent.
Q. How complex is the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange to configure?
A. SQL*Net Version 2 is provided with a configuration tool which creates the
Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange configuration files. This tool is
simple to use and creates error free configurations. You should not
attempt to create the configuration files for SQL*Net or the Oracle
MultiProtocol Interchange by hand as this method is not supported by
Oracle. Future releases of SQL*Net will provide configuration migration
tools which only work on configurations created with the configuration
tools.
Q. Does the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange need to be on a standalone
machine?
A. No. The Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange is a piece of software that
can run on the same machine that you also run servers and/or clients. It
is very flexible and does not use all your machine resources. The
choice as to where you install it merely determined by finding a machine
that supports the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange and has the
appropriate
hardware and software to handle the required protocols. You should
consider a couple of points, however:
. Don't install it on a machine that will be constantly rebooted, or on
a machine where you do software development that may crash the
machine. If the machine crashes or is rebooted, all your connections
through the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange will be lost!
. Consider the number of concurrent connections you intend to run through
the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange. If you will have a lot of
concurrent connections, don't install the Oracle MultiProtocol
Interchange
on a machine that also has to support a lot of client or server
connections as well, because the underlying protocol resources may be
exhausted.
Q. Will the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange solve all my heterogeneous
network connectivity issues for Oracle clients and servers?
A. The Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange is a way of solving certain network
connectivity issues between Oracle clients and servers, but it is not
the only option. You could also consider installing more protocol
support on the client and/or server side in order to overcome the
protocol barriers, although this may be prohibitive if you have a large
client population in your network. Another solution may be to use
database
links in an intermediate server which supports multiple protocols,
although
this may have an affect on performance. Overall, the Oracle
MultiProtocol
Interchange can be considered an economical solution to some
heterogeneous network connectivity issues.
Q. How many connections can an Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange support
concurrently at an adequate level of performance?
A. It depends on the platform and protocols used as well as the types of
application using it. Some platforms or protocols can only support
a limited number of open connections simultaneously. Also, some types
of application generate a lot of network traffic which will effectively
limit the number of supportable concurrent connections that can run with
adequate response time. In other words, there is no single answer.
Oracle
Network Products Division is working on Sizing and Performance metrics
for the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange at the present time - watch this
space for more information soon.
Q. When should I sell the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange as a connectivity
solution?
A. Ask the following questions:
- Are there client applications in the customer's network that cannot get
access to the server due to protocol barriers?
- Have all other potential solutions and their cost/benefits been
considered? For example, has it been determined that installing
further
Protocol Adapters on the server side is uneconomical or will not solve
the problem? Also, is it necessary to use a different protocol on the
client side from the the server side in the first place? You should
also check availability of the necessary Protocol Adapters for each
platform you wish to connect together.
- Is there an Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange available that will
resolve
the specific protocol-to-protocol connectivity that the customer
requires?
- Does the customer have a machine in their network that will support the
ls about logistics for each site.

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
Eric Steven Raymond
Rick Moen
Write in clear, grammatical, correctly-spelled language
We've found by experience that people who are careless and sloppy writers are usually also careless and sloppy at thinking and coding (often enough to bet on, anyway). Answering questions for careless and sloppy thinkers is not rewarding; we'd rather spend our time elsewhere.
So expressing your question clearly and well is important. If you can't be bothered to do that, we can't be bothered to pay attention. Spend the extra effort to polish your language. It doesn't have to be stiff or formal - in fact, hacker culture values informal, slangy and humorous language used with precision. But it has to be precise; there has to be some indication that you're thinking and paying attention.
Spell, punctuate, and capitalize correctly. Don't confuse "its" with "it's", "loose" with "lose", or "discrete" with "discreet". Don't TYPE IN ALL CAPS; this is read as shouting and considered rude. (All-smalls is only slightly less annoying, as it's difficult to read. Alan Cox can get away with it, but you can't.)
More generally, if you write like a semi-literate b o o b you will very likely be ignored. So don't use instant-messaging shortcuts. Spelling "you" as "u" makes you look like a semi-literate b o o b to save two entire keystrokes.

    CMGW, CMADMIN, CMCTL(desktop Oracle8i에서)
    CMGW/CMGW80
    이 것은 Connection Manager의 hub와 같은 역할을 하는
    gateway process입니다.
    CMGW의 기능은 다음과 같습니다.
    - CMADMIN를 등록합니다.
    - SQL*Net 2.x와 NET 8.x에서 오는 접속 요청에 대해 대기합니다.
    기본적으로 1610 port를 사용합니다.
    - NET 8.x listeners에 접속 요청을 발생 시킵니다.
    - client와 server사이의 data를 전달합니다.
    - CMCTL/CMCTL80에 의해 발생되는 요청에 응답합니다.
    CMADMIN/CMADM80
    Connection Manager의 모든 관리적인 문제들을 처리하는 multi-threaded
    process입니다.
    SQL*Net 2.x 와 NET 8.x clients들을 위해
    Oracle Names Server에 있는 주소정보를 유지하는 기능을 합니다.
    - CMGW/CMGW80 등록 작업을 합니다.
    - local Oracle Names Server를 찾습니다.
    - 하나이상의 db instance를 서비스하는 모든 listener들을 관리합니다.
    - CMGW/CMGW80 와 listener에 대한 주소 정보를 등록합니다.
    - 네트워크와 Names Server의 수정된 정보를 감시합니다.
    - CMCTL/CMCTL80의 요청에 응답합니다.
    CMGW, CMADMIN/CMGW80, 와 CMADM80 의 서로간의 정보전달은 IPC를 통해
    이루어 집니다.
    CMAN은 주기적으로 Names Server의 바뀐 정보를 cache에 반영합니다.
    CMCTL/CMCTL80
    CMADM/CMADM80 와 CMGW/CMGW80 를 관리하는 일을 합니다.
    현재 제공되는 명령은 start, stop, status, 그리고 version 입니다.
    CMCTL START [CMAN | CM | ADM]
    이 명령은 Connection Manager 또는 그 구성요소를 시작 시킵니다.
    - 인자가 없는 경우 또는 CMAN을 준 경우는 gateway 와
    administration process를 시작시킵니다.
    - CM 을 주면 gateway process 만 시작됩니다.
    - ADM 을 주면 administration process 만 시작됩니다.
    CMCTL STOP [CM]
    Connection Manager process들을 중지 시킵니다.
    - 인자가 없는 경우 또는 CM 을 준 경우 gateway 와
    administration process 모두를 중지시킵니다.
    gateway process가 중단될 경우 administration process는 자동으로
    중단됩니다.
    현재 진행중인 접속이 있는 경우 CMAN 는 중지될 수 없습니다.
    CMCTL STATUS [CMAN | CM | ADM]
    이 명령은 Connection Manager의 요소들의 상태를 보여줍니다.
    - 인자가 없거나 CMAN이나 CM일 경우 gateway process의 상태를 보여 줍니다.
    - ADM은 administration process의 상태를 보여 줍니다.
    CMCTL VERSION
    이 명령은 control utility의 버젼을 보여 줍니다.
    CMGW/CMGW80 와 CMADM/CMADM80의 버젼은 status명령으로 볼 수 있습니다.
    2. 설정 방법
    client들은 tnsnames.ora 이나 Oracle Names Server 가 필요합니다.
    Connection Manager는 cman.ora 가 필요하며 server는 init.ora에 MTS설정이
    필요합니다.
    client설정
    tnsnames.ora파일의 예 입니다.
    EXAMPLE=
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=SERVER.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
    (SID=ORCL)
    하나의 protocol로 Connection Manager를 사용하는 tnsnames.ora파일 예입니다.
    EXAMPLE_CMAN=
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS_LIST=
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=CMAN.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1610)
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=SERVER.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
    (SID=ORCL)
    (SOURCE_ROUTE=YES)
    ADDRESS_LIST가 path입니다.
    첫번째 주소가 CMAN에 접속하는 정보이고, 두번째 주소가 서버에
    접속할때 CMAN에 의해 사용되는 주소입니다.
    필요하다면 ADDRESS_LIST 안에 여러개의 CMAN 의 주소를 설정할
    수 있습니다. CMAN은 기본적으로 라우터처럼 동작합니다.
    접속 요청을 다음 hop으로 지정합니다.
    여러개의 protocol로 Connection Manager를 사용하는
    tnsnames.ora파일 예입니다.
    EXAMPLE_CMAN=
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS_LIST=
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=SPX)
    (SERVICE=CMAN)
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=SERVER.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
    (SID=ORCL)
    (SOURCE_ROUTE=YES)
    위의 예에서 CMAN에 접속하기 위해서 client는 SPX를 사용하고
    server에 접속하기 위해서 CMAN은 TCP/IP를 사용하게 됩니다.
    Oracle7에서 소개된 Oracle Multi-Protocol Interchange (MPI)과
    같은 기능을 합니다.
    만일 서버까지 가는데 한개 이상의 router가 있는 경우
    SQL*Net 2.3에서 소개된 DESCRIPTION_LIST를 사용할 수 있습니다.
    다음은 DESCRIPTION_LIST를 사용한 tnsnames.ora 파일의 예 입니다.
    EXAMPLE_ROUTES=
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST=
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS_LIST=
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=CMAN1.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1610)
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=SERVER.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
    (SID=ORCL)
    (SOURCE_ROUTE=YES)
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS_LIST=
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=CMAN2.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1610)
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=SERVER.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
    (SID=ORCL)
    (SOURCE_ROUTE=YES)
    만일 Oracle Names Server를 사용하면 Connection Manager는 자동으로
    CMAN을 위한 주소를 Names Server에 있는 기존의 주소에 추가하게 됩니다.
    SQLNET.ORA파일에 다음과 같은 parater를 설정할 수 있습니다.
    USE_CMAN = [TRUE | FALSE]
    - TRUE 라고 설정하면 CMAN이 무작위로 뽑은 간접적인 경로를 이용해
    client를 접속시킵니다. ( 적어도 하나의 CMAN address가 있는
    address list)
    - TRUE 그리고 description에 간접 경로가 없는 경우에는 무작위로 뽑은
    경로가 사용됩니다.
    - FALSE 이거나 설정이 안된 경우 무작위로 뽑힌 경로가 사용됩니다.
    Connection Manager 설정
    CMAN 은 한개의 파일(CMAN.ORA)로 설정된다.
    CMAN.ORA 파일은 다음 세개의 부분으로 구성된다.
    1) CMAN - Connection Manager를 위한 listening주소를 포함한다.
    2) CMAN_PROFILE - CMAN 설정 parameter들을 포함한다.
    3) CMAN_RULES - 접속 요청에 대한 필터링에 관련된 규칙을 포함한다.
    CMAN=
    (ADDRESS_LIST=
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=SPX)
    (SERVICE=CMAN)
    (ADDRESS=
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=CMAN.US.ORACLE.COM)
    (PORT=1610)
    이 CMAN의 예에서는 SPX 와 TCP/IP 두개의 주소에서 listening하고 있습니다.
    CMAN 은 CMAN이 실행되는 장비에서 oracle이 지원하는 모든 protocol에 대해
    listen할 수 있습니다.
    CMAN_PROFILE=
    (PARAMETER_LIST=
    (MAXIMUM_RELAYS=64)
    (LOG_LEVEL=0)
    (TRACING=YES)
    (RELAY_STATISTICS=YES)
    (SHOW_TNS_INFO=NO)
    (USE_ASYNC_CALL=YES)
    (AUTHENTICATION_LEVEL=0)
    각 parameter들에 대한 정의 :
    MAXIMUM_RELAYS = n
    - 허용되는 최대 동시 접속수
    - 기본값 8
    - 최대값 1024
    LOG_LEVEL = n
    - CMAN에 의해 수행되는 logging의 level설정
    - 기본값 0 ( logging이 안됨 )
    - 0에서부터 4까지의 값을 설정할 수 있음
    TRACING = [YES | NO]
    - YES로 설정하면 CMAN은 파일에 tracing을 한다.
    - 기본값 NO
    주의: trace파일을 읽기위새허는 Oracle Trace를 사용하면 됩니다.
    RELAY_STATISTICS = [YES | NO]
    - YES는 I/O활동에 대한 통계정보를 저장하게 합니다.
    예를 들어 :
         - IN bytes 수
         - OUT bytes 수
         - IN packets 수
         - OUT packets 수
    - 기본값 NO
    SHOW_TNS_INFO = [YES | NO]
    - Yes로 설정하면 log 파일에 TNS events를 포함하게 합니다.
    - 기본값 NO
    USE_ASYNC_CALL = [YES | NO]
    - YES로 설정하면 CMAN 접속을 실행하고 받아들이고 대답하는 과정에서
    모든 비동기적인 기능을 사용할 수 있게 합니다.
    - 기본값 NO
    주의: CMAN은 out-of-band breaks를 지원합니다.
    CMAN은 그것을 서버로 전달합니다.
    AUTHENTICATION_LEVEL = [0 | 1]
    - 1로 설정하게 되면 CMAN은 Secure Network Services를 사용하지 않은
    접속 요청은 거절하게 됩니다
    Secure Network Services은 Advanced Networking Option의 일부입니다.
    - 기본값은 0 입니다.
    즉 Secure Network Services가 필요없다는 뜻입니다.
    CMAN_RULES=
    (RULE_LIST=
    (RULE=
    (SRC = shost)
    (DST = dhost)
    (SRV = services)
    (ACT = accept | reject)
    CMAN_RULES에 정의된 parameter들:
    - shost 는 client에서 session을 요청한 source hostname 이거나
    IP address입니다.
    - dhost 는 서버쪽의 hostname 이거나 IP address 입니다.
    - services 는 SID 이름입니다.
    - ACT: 위 세개의 parameter들의 값을 근거로한 들어오는 접속요청에
    대한 승인이나 거절입니다.
    주의: wild-card는 'x'입니다. IP address (d.d.d.d)인 경우에
    각 'd'는 wild-card character인 'x'로 교체될 수 있습니다.
    RULE_LIST내에 여러 RULE들이 정의될 수 있습니다.
    여러 rule들 중에 처음에 맞는 rule이 그 요청에 적용됩니다.
    CMAN_RULES이 존재하는 경우 Connection Manager는 규칙에 허용되지 않은
    것들은 모두 허락되지 않게 합니다.
    만일 CMAN_RULES이 정의되지 않았다면 모든것이 허용됩니다.
    Connection Manager의 제한
    만일 connection path에 사용된 Connection Manager가 한개 이상이라면 (1개
    이상의 hop이라면), tnsnames.ora를 직접 설정해야 하며 Oracle Names Server
    를 사용할 수 없습니다.
    TCP/IP network에서만 Connection Manager는 접근 통제(CMAN_RULES)를 할 수
    있습니다.
    Oracle Multi-Protocol Interchange (MPI) 과의 호환성
    client와 server사이에 단 하나의 MPI만 있다면, MPI를
    Connection Manager로 교체하십시요.
    client와 server사이에 여러개의 MPI가 있다면,
    tnsnames.ora를 수정해서 MPI들을 Connection Manager들로
    교체하십시요.
    SQL*Net V2.x client와의 호환성
    Connection Manager를 SQL*Net 2.x clients과 Oracle 8사이의
    중심이나 접속 필터로 사용하기 위해서는 다음과 같은 일을
    해야 합니다.
    1) Connection Manager를 설치하고 설정합니다..
    2) SQL*Net v2.x client들을 Connection Manager를 MPI처럼 사용
    하도록 설정 합니다.
    Server 설정
    ===========
    NET8의 새로운 기능을 이용하기 위해서는 Connection Manager를 설정
    해야 하며 서버를 Multi-Threaded Server (MTS)로 설정해야 합니다.
    MTS parameter들은 각 instance의 INIT.ORA파일에 설정합니다.
    NET8 MTS를 위한 parameter들은 SQL*Net 2과 다르지 않습니다.
    다음 Connection Pooling 과 Multiplexing 기능을 사용할때
    MTS_DISPATCHERS parameter의 경우만 제외하면 말입니다.
    MTS_DISPATCHERS parameter:
         MTS_DISPATCHERS ="(PROTOCOL=TCP)(POOL=NO)(MULT=ON)"
    이 예에서 TCP/IP를 위해 dispatcher들을 설정하고 Connection Pooling
    기능을 사용하지 못하게 하고, Multiplexing를 가능하게 합니다.

    Hi
    You must install the Connection Manager, available on the Oracle8 distribution media, onto the Web server host. You can find the installation instructions in the Net8 Administrator's Guide.
    On the Web server host, create a CMAN.ORA file in the [ORACLE_HOME]/NET8/ADMIN directory. The options you can declare in a CMAN.ORA file include firewall and connection pooling support
    Here is an example of a very simple CMAN.ORA file. Replace <web-server-host> with the name of your Web server host. The fourth line in the file indicates that the connection manager is listening on port 1610. You must use this port number in your connect string for JDBC.
    cman = (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL=TCP)
    (HOST=<web-server-host>)
    (PORT=1610)))
    cman_profile = (parameter_list =
    (MAXIMUM_RELAYS=512)

  • Can a raid be moved between protocols (eSata/Firewire/USB)?

    If I get two multi-protocol drive enclosures (like the OWC Quad interface enclosures) and set them up as a RAID 0 under, say, eSata, does anyone know if I can move them to another computer, plug them in as, say, FireWire, and then continue to use the RAID?
    This is mostly to assure myself that if my (contemplated) Mac Pro goes back for repairs for a week or two, I can continue to work on my Mac Mini.
    TIA
    Dual G5 + 15" MBP 2GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Yes. The type of connection is not relevant. You can move the enclosure connection to Firewire, USB, or SATA (if you have an external SATA port.)

  • Controlling interchange id in UNB

    We have a situation where we send EDIFACT D96A INVOIC messages from BPEL to B2B for transport with SFTP to different external parties. The problem is that both the host and some of the external partners represent multiple companies and use multiple identification schemes (always EDI Interchange ID but different values). We have defined the trading partners in B2B with more than one EDI Interchange Id. That is fine and incoming messages are recognized correctly. However, when we send outgoing invoices the UNB segment is incorrect.
    Looking at the wire message for an outgoing invoice the headers are fine:
    TO=correct_to_value
    FROM_PARTY=correct_from_value
    But the payload is not:
    UNA:+,?*'UNB+UNOC:3+wrong_value:ZZ+wrong_value:ZZ+080904:1124+1025+ '
    Real values removed for privacy reasons.
    Basically the override value from document protocol "Interchange Sender Identification" always seems to be used for the host and if that field is undefined the value in the UNB becomes blank!
    How should this be done? Is it possible to set the override to a macro of some kind (i.e. #FROM_PARTY# or #TO#), or what is the proper procedure? Is it a bug - it feels odd that the id is set to space if there is no override?

    Hello Erik,
    There are two ways used to overide the Interchange Sender ID in the Document Protocol Parameters for CONTRL. The first way is to use the remote tp delivery channel in the agreement where the Exchange Protocol Parameters for EDI Interchange Sender ID has been set. This way also applies to other documents.
    The second way is to set oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.edi.FAInternalProperties=true in tip.properties. When this is set, there will in Internal-Properties in the xml instance which overides the Interchange Sender ID in the Document Protocol Parameters.

  • New macbook Pro setback for Audio Production.

    the new macbook pro don't come with a Firewire 400 port anymore.
    everybody knows that usb is too slow for audio transfer and Firewire 800 is usual.
    audio interfaces that use firewire 400 can't be used and with only one firewire 800 port there's no room left 'cause we need that to connect the external drives with audio files.
    most interfaces need to be connected directly to the computer.
    Any Ideas????

    I, too, have an issue with the port configuration on MBPs -- too many USB2.0 ports, not enough FW800 ports. Nevertheless, please note that:
    1. Bilingual FW800 FW400 cables (really good ones) are available for less than $20.
    2. You can daisy chain external FW HDDs (even heterogeneously, i.e. you can cable your computer to a FW800 device using a FW800 cable and then use a FW400 cable to connect the first drive to a FW400 HDD, etc.). This capability is dependent on having redundant or multi-protocol drive enclosures (that is, you will need drives that have at least two FW ports, such as two FW800 ports or a FW800 port plus a FW400 port, not just a single USB2.0 port).
    3. You can go hog wild and purchase a full-on FW800 hub/repeater like the NitroAV Professional Firewire/1394b 8-Port device (google it). I use this device to connect five external HDDs to my MBP (four FW800 drives and one FW400 drive). This hub will set you back $150 -- not trivial, but an elegant solution if you use multiple drives, and it comes with the AC power adapter (believe it or not, some hub manufacturers require you to purchase the AC adapter separately). In my configuration, six ports are used -- five for the drives and the sixth to connect the MBP via a FW800 cable. The hub has the additional advantage of eliminating several of the cables that would otherwise connect directly to my computer, which is, after all, a laptop; the fewer things I have to connect/disconnect when I move my MBP around, the better. You can think of this as a do-it yourself version of the docking station that Apple forgot to give us, at least as far as drive connectivity is concerned!
    As an aside, my MBP (see model notes below) does in fact have both a FW800 and a FW400 port. I wish Apple configured unibody MBPs to include two USB2.0 ports and two FW800 ports -- but the above tips make the world right.
    Finally, I just don't get the gripe about cabling costs. The unibody MBPs are high end laptops -- most purchasers will have invested well over $3K in their machines. There are a thousand usage patterns; I would much rather buy what I need for my applications without incurring the expense of purchasing bundled stuff that I don't need and which winds up in a (bursting at the seams) cable/doodad drawer.

  • Is there a decent and newbie-friendly group chat solution available?

    The problem: we want to move away from Skype for our group chats, but can't find a satisfying alternative.
    What we do right now: we use group chats a lot, for various purposes, but mainly a) discussing certain topics, or b) planning activities/inviting people over, etc. People use all kinds of different operating systems.
    Currently we use Skype for that. The advantage of Skype is its ease of use: users can create group chats by simply clicking on a few names. Chats are persistent: if you go online and come back the next day, you'll still be in the chat, and you will be able to read what was discussed in the meantime. If you add somebody to a chat, they are in it immediately, without having to enter a room address, or a password, or something like that. The participants of a chat control who gets added to it, and you cannot join a chat without being invited.
    The disadvantage is its closedness, which makes us depend on a single vendor's client software and their monetary interests. Plus it has been bought by Microsoft, so the future of the already lagging development of the Linux version is unclear - and users of other OSes have been generally unhappy with the recent versions. Also users can not integrate Skype into already existing multi-protocol-messengers like Pidgin, they have to run the official Skype version at all times they want to chat at.
    Quite a while ago a couple of us made an attempt to move our group chats to Jabber, but the acceptance was really low - opening a chat room was a hassle, they had to be password protected to be private, invitations weren't automatic, or the invitation features of clients were buggy, and by going offline you left a chat room, meaning people had to rejoin the next time they were online, and didn't automatically get to read the conversation that was held while they had been away. IRC is out of the question too, because it lags nearly all the features mentioned above.
    Now I am wondering if anybody here knows about a free, open Chat software, that makes group chat (nearly) as easy as they are in Skype.

    Well, IRC does not meet quite a few of our criteria. A typical chat lifecycle might look like this:
    User A decides he wants to play football the next week. He starts a chat, adds 10 contacts that he knows might be interested, and makes a suggestion for a date and time. People come online, instantly see the chat and everything that has been written, answer, etc. Others join the chat later, see what has been said, and leave. Somebody might invite a couple of others to the chat, which will be immediately added. People play football, have a bit of postgame discussion, and then either plan the next session, or the chat dies.
    I just do not see how this is a workflow that we can easily achieve with IRC - at least not in a way that people will be happy with.
    - you can not automatically add people to a chat afaik
    - chat history is not persistent afaik
    - you do not necessarily want everybody to be able to just join a chat, but you also do not want to do a lot of configuration to restrict access to a chat/channel, when it might be about tonights event.
    - people do not want to type /join #birthday_present_for_xyz, they just want to be added
    I don't know why, but the openmeetings demo just doesn't really work for me - I get a lot of connection errors, it's painfully slow and hangs itself.

  • Connecting an older computer to my wireless router.

    My wireless router is connected to my work computer which is in the same room as my own personal computer. I can hard wire the two together since they are only a few feet apart, but my older computer only has a phone line connection. Are there cables with a ethernet plug on one end and a phone line size plug on the other, or what do I have to do to hard wire these together. My older computer, which still works just fine for my personal needs does not have wireless capability so I was hoping somehow I could hard wire this to the router. Any help is much appreciated.

    Also, does the older computer support USB?  (Don't laugh; there's a method to the suggestion!)  Even if, for some reason, there's no room to mount a wired or wireless network adapter inside the computer, there's nothing stopping you from using a USB network adapter (wired or wireless) to connect to the same computer.  Since there are USB wireless network adapters available (wireless-b, wireless-G, and wireless-N, as well as multi-protocol), do give serious consideration to having one or more around (if for no other reason than as spares); I'm looking to pick up one or two such USB adapters for my two-computer all-wired network (the router is a WRT54GS V.2, but may shortly be replaced with a WRT-310N for additional range and wired gigabit support).  I've had my GS since 2005, and I'm very happy with it.

  • I need to upgrade my macbook's RAM-how do i upgrade?

    i have a macbook that i need to upgrade to 4 or 8GB of RAM. what i need to know is if this is a good quality of RAM.
    heres the link (i will try and post the info for you but i dont know if i will get everything you need to know so i will post the link as well)
    this one is the 4GB
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/8566DDR3S4GP/ 
    this one is the 8GB
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/8566DDR3S8GP/ 
    the reason i need to upgrade is because i use my macbook for all of my video and picture editing. i use imovie and iphoto. what i need to know is should i upgrade to the 4 or the 8? i want to get lion but i need more ram before i upgrade because i have heard that if you dont have 4GB of ram or more lion runs slow. also i need to know if this is good ram. i know that there are different kinds of ram so i want to know how good this ram is and if it will hold up to my standards.
    also what is your opion about buying lion? does anyone like lion? should i wait for mountain lion? and does anyone know what the mountain lion specs are?

  • JMQ cluster and unstable connections

    Hello all.
    I have a few architectural questions about building an OpenMQ message-passing infrastructure between multiple offices which do not always have on-line internet connections. We also need to distribute the MQ mesh configuration info.
    From the scale of my questions it seems, that I or our developers don't fully understand MQ, because I think that many of our problems and/or solution ideas (below) should already be implemented within the MQ middleware, and not by us from outside it.
    The potential client currently has a (relatively ugly) working solution which they wanted to revise for simplification, if possible, but this matter is not urgent and answers are welcome at any timeframe :)
    I'd welcome any insights, ideas and pointers as to why our described approach may be plain wrong :)
    To sum this post up, here's my short questionnaire:
    1) What is a good/best way to distribute MQ mesh config when not all nodes are available simultaneously?
    2) What are the limitations on number of brokers and queues in one logical mesh?
    3) Should we aim for separate "internal" and "external" MQ networks, or can they be combined into one large net?
    4) Should we aim for partial solution external to OpenMQ (such as integration with SMTP for messaging, or SVN for config distribution), or can this quest be solved within OpenMQ functionality?
    5) Can a clustered broker be forced to fully start without available master broker connection?
    6) Are broker clusters inherently local-network, or is there some standard solution (pattern) for geographically disperse MQ clusters?
    7) How to enforce pushing of the messages from one broker to another? Are any priority assignments available for certain brokers and "their" queues?
    Detailed rumblings follow below...
    We are thinking about implementing JMQ in a geographically disperse project, where it will be used for asynchronous communications to connect application servers in different branch offices with a central office. The problematic part is, that the central and especially branch offices are not expected to be always on-line, hence the MQ - whenever a connection is available, queued messages (requests, responses, etc.) are to be pushed to the other side's MQ broker. And if all goes well with the project, there may eventually be hundreds of such branch offices and more than one central office for failover, and a mesh of interconnection MQ agreements.
    The basic idea is simple: an end-user of the app server in a branch generates a request, this request is passed via message queue to another branch or to a central office, then another app server processes it to generate a response and the answer is queued back to the requesting app server. At some time after the initial request, the end-user would see in his web-page that the request's status has been updated with a response value. A branch office's app server and MQ broker may be an appliance-server distributed as a relatively unmaintained "black box".
    During the POC we configured several JMQ broker instances in this manner and it worked. From what I gather from our developers, each branch office's request and response queues are separate destinations in the system, and requests (from a certain branch) may be subscribed by any node, and responces (to a certain branch) may be submitted by any node. This may be restricted by passwords and/or certificate-based SSL tunnel channels, for example (suggestions welcome, though).
    However, we also wanted to simplify spreading the configuration of the MQ nodes' network by designating "master brokers" (as per JMQ docs) which keep track of the config and each other broker downloads the cluster config from its master. Perhaps it was wrong on our side, and a better idea is available to avoid manual reconfiguration of each MQ broker whenever another broker or a queue destination is added?
    Problem here is: it seems an "MQ cluster" is a local-network oriented concept. When we have a master broker in a central office, and the inter-connection is not up, branch offices loop indefinitely waiting for connection to a master, and reject client connections (published JMS port remains 0, and appropriate comments in the log files). In this case the branch office can not function until its JMQ broker connects to a central office, updates the MQ config, and permits client connections to itself.
    Also we are not certain (and it seems to be a popular question on Google, too) how to enforce a queued message to be pushed to another side - to a broker "nearest" to the target app server? Can this be done within OpenMQ config, or does this require an MQ client application to read and manipulate such messages somehow? For example, when a branch office's "request" queue has a message, and a connection to central office comes online, this request data should end up in the central office's broker. Apparently, a message which physically remains in the branch office broker when the interconnection goes offline, is of little use to the central appserver...
    I was thinking along the lines of different-priority brokers for a certain destinations, so that messages would automatically flow from further brokers to neares ones - like water flows from higher ground to lower ground in an aqueduct. It would then be possible to easily implement transparent routing between branch offices (available at non-intersecting times) via central office (always up).
    How many brokers and destination can be interconnected at all (practically or theoretically/hardcoded)?
    Possibly, there are other means to do some or all of this?
    Ideas we've discussed internally include:
    * Multiple networks of MQ brokers:
    Have an "internal" broker (cluster) in each branch office which talks to the app server, and a separate "external" broker which is clustered with the central office's "master broker". Some branch office application transfers messages between two brokers local to its branch. Thus the local appserver works okay, and remote queuing works whenever network is available.
    Possibly, the central office should also have separate internal and external broker setups?
    * Multi-tiered net of MQ brokers:
    Perhaps there can be "clusters of clusters" - with "external" tier-1 brokers being directly master brokers for local "internal" tier-2 clusters? Otherwise the idea of "miltiple networks of MQ brokers" above, without an extra app to relay messages between MQ brokers local to this app.
    * Multi-protocol implementation of MQ+SMTP(+POP3/IMAP)
    Many of our questions are solvable by SMTP. That is, we can send messages to a mailbox residing on a specific server (local in each office), and local appserver clients retrieve them by POP3 from the local mailbox server, and then submit responses over SMTP. This is approximately how the client currently solves this task now.
    We don't really want to invent a bicycle, but maybe this approach can also be applied to JMQ (asynch traffic not over MQ protocol, but over SMTP like in SOAP-SMTP vs. SOAP-HTTP webservices)?
    * HTTP/RCS-based config file:
    The OpenMQ config allows for the detailed configuration file to be available in local filesystem or on a web server. It is possible to fetch the config file from a central office whenever the connection is up (wget, svn/cvs/etc.) and restart the branch broker.
    Why is this approach good or bad? Advocates welcome :)
    Thanks for reading up to the end,
    and thanks in advance for any replies,

    Below you can see my {color:#0000ff}*/var/sadm*{color} folder
    # pwd
    /var/sadm/patch

    When i cd to {color:#0000ff}*/export/home/var/sadm/pkg*{color} it lists 1057 packages.
    In the Update Manager, the spool directory is{color:#0000ff} */export/home/patches*{color}, there are no patches in here. I cleaned them out.
    When i attempt to install an already installed patch, it fails (which is good) but doesn't remove the patch from the list.
    Has anyone any ideas how i can get Update Manager back to normal?
    Thanks
    Michael

    Try moving the files in /export/home/var/sadm/patch and /export/home/var/sadm/patch back to their correct locations.
    You might then find that updatemanager works as expected again. Did you ever stop to think what those directories were used for?

  • VERY strange lag on a Dell Optiplex 760

    I thought it would be a good idea to keep a 16GB flash drive on my keychain that booted Arch so I could work on HW for college in a consistent OS!  Everything is working great so far, but I ran into a very strange problem with a Dell Optiplex 760.  During the normal Arch init process, everything loads great, except for when it gets to the udev stage where everything hangs.  But here's the strange part of this scenario: the problems go away when I start typing random keys or move the mouse!  If I don't do this, the system hangs completely from what I can tell.  This happens at the console and with X. 
    The service tag for this machine is FDCQQJ1, and the dell.com driver area brings up this list of hardware and (windows) drivers for it.
    Here's the #lspci -vv of the system:

  • Error in scenario "FILE to HTTP(with SSL)" - HTTP client code 110 reason.

    Hi friends,
    Our scenario is as follows:
    We are trying to send XML file from our SAP-XI to external tool "COMMunix XC" (a multi-protocol EDI platform tool).
    We have configured " FILE TO HTTP(with SSL)" scenario (trying to connect HTTPS/port)
    1. We have created RFC destination of type G and refered the same RFC in Communication channel (Adapter type: HTTP)
    2. We have send the SSL Server certificate to other party and ensure that they have imported at thier end.
    3. We have included the certificates from other party in our SAP XI STRUST under SSL Client (Standard) node.
    4. We have tried " CONNECTION TEST " in the RFC destination created in type G (in STEP 1) and it shows the GREEN TICK at bottom, no other message nor any error message
    When we trigger the communication we recieve the error: HTTP client code 110 reason in SXMB_MONI.
    Please let us know if we have missed out some step.
    What does error message indicate,
    Regards,
    Rehan

    Hi Rehan,
    I see that the PROCTIMEOUT was already at a very high value.
    Does this occur for messages of a particularly large size?  If yes, you could increase the parameter
       icm/HTTP/max_request_size_KB = 2097152
    This would need to be done in the sender/receiver system as well as XI.
    Otherwise you could try reproducing the issue and checking the dev_icm log in the work directory, or go to SMICM -> Goto -> Display trace file
    check for errors like NIECONN_REFUSED or "no service for protocol HTTPS" which can often be related to this type of issue.
    Kind regards,

  • Why doesn't smpatch analyze match patchdiag output?

    Can someone explain this and if it will change in the future. If so, when ca we expect it?
    First, I understand that the patchdiag.xref file is commonly more current than patchdb.zip (by a day) but that's not what I am talking about.
    I see across most hosts and OS versions patches that aren't flagged for update by smpatch analyze but are by patchdiag. Many are obviously important files (not obscure), a good example I have seen on other boxes are the SUNWsan patches, sd patches, etc.
    Below is an example from a Solaris 10 box.
    # smpatch analyze
    No patches required.

    Obviously a difference in reference file dates, but not sure if these patchdiag patches are since the patchdb dates. I'll leave that to you all to research.
    Hope this ouput helps. JB
