ODI on RAC- Server usage

For my data migration project, the target is an Oracle database setup with RAC. The ODI agent is installed in the target in one of the servers in the RAC. The target database has been setup in the ODI Topology with the Oracle "scan" name in the JDBC URL (Eg: jdbc:oracle:thin:@xxxxx-scan:1521/yyyyy). Few questions based on this setup-
1) Will all ODI sessions running on the target database share memory across the 2 servers in the RAC (or) will the server on which the ODI agent is installed will only be used by the ODI sessions?
2) If they would be shared, is it possible to restrict ODI sessions to run on just one of the servers. Can this be achieved by modifying the JDBC URL of the target database to include the hostname (instead of scan name) of one of the servers.
3) If there is some documentation clarifying ODI on RAC setup along with answers for above questions, can you please point me to the same?
Version:
ODI: 10g
Oracle: 11g

We have accomplished #2 by configuring the service name being used to be locked to a single node.
Not sure about the others though.

  • Clone a RAC database to a new RAC server

    Hi,
    How can clone a RAC database to a new RAC environment ?
    I installed Cluster and RDBMS 10g R1 in a new RAC server and I need to copy my database "dbrest" to the new server, my new database must have the same name ("dbrest"). My actual dbrest database is in ASM and I need to use ASM for the new database too.
    I don't have any database in the new RAC environment.
    At the end I need to have this configuration:
    Source configuration:
    SERVER:
    Node 1: srvprod1
    Node 2: srvprod2
    CLUSTER DB: dbrest using ASM
    Node 1: dbrest1
    Node 2: dbrest2
    Clone configuration:
    SERVER:
    Node 1: dupenv1
    Node 2: dupenv2
    CLUSTER DB: dbrest using ASM
    Node 1: dbrest1
    Node 2: dbrest2
    How can I do this?
    How can I copy my dbrest database to

    use rman Duplicate Database on srvprod* to dupenv*
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmdupdb.htm#BRADV165
    When duplicate database can run on both dupenv1 and dupenv2.
    use "srvctl" to add database, instance and services (if you have)
    Usage: srvctl add database -d <name> -o <oracle_home> [-m <domain_name>] [-p <spfile>] [-A <name|ip>/netmask] [-r {PRIMARY | PHYSICAL_STANDBY | LOGICAL_STANDBY}] [-s <start_options>] [-n <db_name>] [-y {AUTOMATIC | MANUAL}]
    Usage: srvctl add instance -d <name> -i <inst_name> -n <node_name>
    Usage: srvctl add service -d <name> -s <service_name> -r "<preferred_list>" [-a "<available_list>"] [-P <TAF_policy>]
    Usage: srvctl add service -d <name> -s <service_name> -u {-r "<new_pref_inst>" | -a "<new_avail_inst>"}

  • Database startup after reboot of RAC server

    Hello,
    My config : 2 nodes w2k3 with 15 dbs . Oracle 10.2.0.3
    I started to scheduled my rac server reboot so i follow the oracle doc to shutdown properly all db,asm,service,listener,etc...
    Today one the server reboot, but some instance doesn't start (only five , and the last five in alphabetic order)
    In the log :
    db log : nothing just the shutdown
    crs_log : the start of the 10 db but nothing for the last five !!
    just a trace on one listener service :

    IMO : (i am not a great oracle dba, because i have not enough time to spend with, and my collegue need really simple think to do, like startup/shutdown a database, no more investigation)Why startup/shutdown a database? I have databases that work 24x7 and uptimes of over a year. The record so far, has been over 24 months uptime (1st downtime were caused by a powerfailure to the rack cabinet). And for a database instance that runs a number of processes and deals with 100's to 1000's of inserts per second.
    it's easier to view that an oracle process take more cpu and so investigate in that database what's appens. Rather than search in my v$sql table to find witch schema doing wrong thinksNot sure what you are trying to say here. Single or multiple database instances do not change how a session looks like, or how SQLs are executed.. and thus not how you troubleshoot problems. Nor does it change resource requirements, or how you address these. But multiple instances do impact resource availability and requires one to split resources amongst instances - the end result of this is less flexibility.
    It's easier to affect cpu ressource to a process, rather than configuring it in oraclePlease explain.
    It's easier to stop a database rather than "put offline a schema"This is a "silly" statement to make IMO. Why do you want to offline a schema? Availability of applications and data are a critical feature in today's information system landscape. So why argue the complete opposite and say it is now more complex to make something less available?
    By the same token, why do you want to offline a database? A down database is even less useful than a downed server - at least you can use the downed server as a doorstop.. ;-)
    And if a database crash it only affect one application.Yeah.. and these happens when? Every few minutes? Every hour? Once a day?
    This is not a valid argument. Oracle instances very seldom crashes just for the heck of it. Most often it is due to incorrect o/s configuration, problematic hardware, uncertified components, old drivers, etc. Or plain old application abuse of Oracle.
    There is the theorical approach and practical one : I'm not alone is that case :
    http://oracledoug.com/serendipity/index.php?/archives/1339-The-Reality-Gap-3-A-Single-Instance-per-Server.html
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/art_dbazine_server_consolidation.htm
    I have never done RDBMS as a theoretical thing. The most dynamic table (ito SQLs against it) I have, grows by more than 450 million rows per day. This is as real world as real world gets. And that is what shapes my experience and opinion. And Burleson and I have never seen eye to eye on a number of subjects - so quoting his views on consolidation does little to persuade me to change my opinion.
    have you any ideas where can i found an error message that explain why my database doesn't start ? (like not enough ressource ;-) )Troubleshooting a problem starts with a very basic principle - isolation. Isolate the layer or moving part where the problem occurs. As the other instances are running, it means that the CRS software layer is up and running, that the storage layer is up and running and so on. So the problem should be with the instance that for some reason refuses to start? Confirm this by using sqlplus to start a down instance and looking at what its alert log file says. It should have some kind of pointer to what dependency that has not been met.

  • Restore from cold backup (rac server)

    Hi All,
    Oracle version : 10g
    OS : SunOS dixie1 5.10 Generic_118855-36 i86pc i386 i86pc
    I am having cold backup of RAC server (2 nodes), I want to restore from cold backup.
    The problem is that : when i performed the cold backup using rman at that time Oracle was having 3 ASM diskgroups.But unforunately that disk is no more in use due to some fault.
    Now my question is how can i restore from the cold backup as when i'll restore from the cold backup this will ask for the same ASM diskgroups.Even more if i creates the same diskgroup with the same name and same configuration then my doubt is that rman will allow me to restore the same from the cold backup as ASM disk header changed now ?
    Thanks,
    Vipin

    Yes.You can do these and restore/recover your database.First you need startup your ASM instance then create your ASM disk groups and do following:
    1.Edit pfile and change controlfile location to diskgroup(Consder that +dgr1)
    2.Restore controlfile to this disk group using backup of controlfiles(you say that is cold backup)
    rman target /
    /*Instance  need starting up from pfile*/
    startup nomount ;
    /*then restore controlfile,give full path of controlfile from coldbackup*/
    restore controlfile from 'coldbackup_location\coltrolfile';
    alter database mount;
    catalog start with 'coldbackup_location';
    backup as copy database format  '+dgr1';
    switch database to copy;
    alter database open;

    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
    The problem is, the connection creation is not consistent. It is throwing the following error randomly.
    ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
    I'm able connect to another server (not RAC) without any issues. Even TOAD is giving the same error. After few tries, it works.
    Anyone facing the same problem, got any solution???

    I've done all the checklists suggested but I'm still getting the error. The problem is not with the network and the servers cos I'm working in a Company and when I had Windows XP SP 3 and Oracle Client 10gR2 all was working fine. I'm with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit now. I'm almost sure the problem is with Windows 7 x Oracle Client but it's hard to figure out what's going on. Does anyone have idea what could it be ??I would generate a client side sqlnet trace, then go on a fishing expedition. There's a lot of dense stuff in a full trace, but if you don't panic and just try to make sense of what you can, you'll probably flush it out.
    To enable the trace, go to your sqlnet.ora file and add these lines:

    HI all,
    My question is how to represent file folder name of that server
    my file folder in AIX server and i want to access that file in window s machine.
    * is this the right way to represent the data folder in physical schema declaration
    file:///<aix server IP>/usr/oracledi/oracldi/data

    HI Julien,
    It's really working ..........
    Thanx a lot
    For other people it will be helpfull info
    Only change that I have made for that task are
    1. I have created an new agent for that AIX machine
    2. I have updated the ODIPARAM.bat
    3. I have changed record separator as UNIX while creating data store for that file
    4. While executing particular interface ,I have used the agent which is local to AIX machine ..................
    Steps for execution:
    At the time of designing you must have local copy of that file so that you can perform your mapping once it's executing well wid your local or no agent .
    then come to the Topology manager change the location for that folder in physical schema declaration of that file server of AIX machine.
    Now execute the same wid ur AIX agent u have created earlier..............
    while U have changed the data store location from local directory to other AIX directory don't try to reverse the same otherwise u'll get "Execution query failed "or file not found kinda error as because odi system system searching local systems file.................

  • Database independant ETL in ODI for SQL Server and Oracle

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to create ETL which can be run for both SQL Server and Oracle.
    We have some tables to be filled from operational database to data warehouse using business requirement.Our goal is to create code which should be database independant.
    We will provide all DB details at the start of execution and it will code for as per provided details.
    The same can be achieved by Talend.
    I wanted to know if same can be achieved in ODI.
    Any pointers regarding this would be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Mahesh

    A quick trick: Provide one more value at the start of execution. It is something like a flag. For example db_flag. It can be either 'O' or 'S'.
    Open both  oracle and sql server KM. Copy one of the KM code to other KM and put an if condition to check the flag.
    if (#DB_FLAG.equalsTo("O")){
    Oracle code goes here...........
    }else{
    SQL Server code goes here...........
    Its a pure KM customization.

  • Installation of ODI with SQL Server 2005

    Hi
    I am trying to install ODI with MS Sql Server 2005.
    I created a database in Sql Server & created a user with db_owner rights for logging into the database.
    While trying to install Master Repository, i selected Sql Server with following details
    Driver: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
    URL: jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://<myhostname>:1433;SelectMethod=cursor
    The repository does not get created giving error:
    *com.sunopsis.core.q: java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC][SQLServer]The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 1 (""): Data type 0x38 is unknown*
    Now if i change the URL to jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://<myhostname>:1433, the repository gets created successfully. But at the time of login into the topology manager using the same Master repository, it again prompts me the same error.
    Has anyone faced the same issue?

    Hi,
    You are using SQL server 2005 but trying to connect using the SQL server 2000 connection details you should be using
    com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    jdbc:sqlserver://ServerName:1433;databaseName=DBNAME;SelectMethod=cursor
    You will also need to make sure you are using the correct SQL server 2005 driver, if you are using a version of Java before 1.5 for ODI then you will need the SQL Server 2005 1.2 JDBC driver.
    Cheers

    11g Release 2 (11.2)...it states in simple terms:
    (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e16795/rman.htm#i474611)
    "In order for redo log files to be archived, the Oracle RAC database must be in ARCHIVELOG mode. You can run the ALTER DATABASE SQL statement to change the archiving mode in Oracle RAC, because the database is mounted by the local instance but not open in any instances. You do not need to modify parameter settings to run this statement."
    and thats about it.
    I've been researching and found a couple of other non-oracle official guides to this, where they describe a much more involved process, that seems to follow this path:
    1. sqlplus into one instance and change the cluster_database=false scope=spfile sid='specific_node_name';
    2. Shut down all instances, srvctl stop database -d <instance_name>
    3. Startup the instance you changed cluster_database on with sqlplus and startup mount;
    4 On this instance you do ALTER DATABASE NOARCHIVELOG;
    5. On same instance change the cluster parameter back: alter system set cluster_database=true scope=spfile sid='specific_node_name';
    6. Shut down this single instance
    7. Start all instances with srvctl start database -d <instance>
    I've found references to this at:
    http://oracle-dba-yi.blogspot.com/2010/12/enabledisable-archive-log-mode-in-11gr2.html
    and
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/bk_disable_archive_log_mode.htm
    Among other sites. I'm curious why the Oracle documentation on this doesn't mention all these steps?
    I'm guessing the longer version is the path I should take, but I wanted to ask here first if this is correct?
    I'm on Oracle 11Gr2....hasn't been patched with latest patchset, running on RHEL5, and is a 5 node cluster.
    Thank you in advance,

    There are couple things you need to consider
    - export daily is not a backup strategy
    - you're risking your enterprise company by disabling archivelog
    your company have 5 RAC nodes I assume this is mid-to-large company, question you might ask to yourself Is your company really desperately don't have any available disk space for you to backup to temporary location / server?
    However if you still insist and persistent with your strategy then follow the links you have, that is how to disable archivelog in RAC
    CheersThank you everyone for the comments.
    This is a DEV environment...and they are planning to move this all to a new facility where we won't have the powerouttages and old defunct equipment.
    Right now...I do not have drive space to put all of this. I've informed them of the risks of not having point in time recovery. I really don't see any other choice on this....I don't want to run noarchive either...but I've been without tape to move the logs off for days now..and even with low traffic, I'm afraid they will fill and I'll have databases halting.
    I think at this point, and again, this is not production data....I'm going to have to go with daily exports and that will have to do me till I can get these servers 'moved' to a new facility soon.
    Again, thank you for the comments!!!

  • Remove CPU  from a RAC Server

    Hi,
    Can any one please confirm, Does any impact on when we remove a CPU from a rac database server.
    Does it affect Database ?
    - Balaji

    No hardware platform
    No operating system
    No version number
    No indication of the number of servers or their configuration
    My temptation is to say I won't answer until you provide even the most modest amount of real information
    So, in this specific case, I will say that I have done it without consequence but strongly advise you to post sufficient relevant information that you can get a more specific answer.
    As to whether it has an impact on the database the answer is clearly no. As to whether it will have an impact on the instance, and your users, depends upon your current CPU utilization something else you didn't think important enough to mention.

  • Oracle 11gR2 RAC crsd usage Memory

    Hi All~
    CRSD usage memroy on RAC is exactly? Because I use to ps -ef |grep crsd ,find out the crsd usage 6GB of memory. So, I don't know this situation whether normal or abnormal?
    Please, Thanx

    Hi,
    What's S.O?
    If Linux I recommend you use CHM to diagnose/collect data and open the SR on Oracle Support.

  • ODI Demo Data Server Error

    Hi.
    I'm running the ODI Demo Environment. I'm trying to create a Data Server using settings:
    JDBC driver: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
    JDBC URL: jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE
    but I got the error:
    java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
         at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:125)
         at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:162)
         at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:274)
    Any help? I'm new to ODI.
    Regards.

    No, I haven't tried yet. I can't locate the database since I don't have installed Oracle DB on my server because I'm using only the demo environment provided with ODI install.
    According with the guide, I have to create a new Data Server ORACLE_XE_LOCAL on an instance XE with USR:ODI and PWD:ODI, and the JDBC driver and URL I've mentioned before, but I get this error.
    Am I missing something?
    Regards.

  • Installing ODI on UBUNTU server

    All,
    Hope everyone had a blast on christmas and new years eve.
    Happy New year 2012 to all of you!
    I am setting up a VM on a 64 bit machine, I plan on installing a free server OS on it, and I have chosen UBUNTU 64 bit server.
    I am trying to understand if there are any compatibility issues that ODI has with UBUNTU.
    Thanks in advance.
