Oracle 10g ASM and RAC configuration

Hi all,
I want to ask to everybody something about Oracle 10g RAC and ASm configuration. We plan to migrate to Oracle 10g from 9i, and we will begin configuring oracle but we have to decide which configuration are the best.
Our materials are bellow:
Hardware: RP 3440 (HP)
OS : HPUX 11i Ver 1
Storage: EVA 4000 (eva disk group)
The problem is:
Our supplier recommand us to use HP serviguard + HP serviceguard extension for RAC+ RAc and Raw device as configuration.
But we want to use Oracekl Clusterware + RAC + ASM
My question is if anybody know what is the best configuration, we want to use ASm.
Can HP serviguard use ASM.
Some documentations or link explain oracle RAC and ASM configuration will be appreciate.
Thanks for your help.
Regards.

Hi,
I want to use RAC for clustering. My shared disk is a NetApp Filer FS250 that can only be mounted throught NFS. RAW devices have to be excluded, alsi OCFS i think works similar to raw devices and need to see phisical disk to create partition. ASM instead can work on an NFS mount?

How do I map Hitachi SAN LUNs to Solaris 10 and Oracle 10g ASM?

Hi all,
I am working on an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM installation with Sun E6900 servers attached to a Hitachi SAN for shared storage with Sun Solaris 10 as the server OS. We are using Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) RAC clusterware
for the clustering software and raw devices for shared storage and Veritas VxFs 4.1 filesystem.
My question is this:
How do I map the raw devices and LUNs on the Hitachi SAN to Solaris 10 OS and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
I am aware that with an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM instance, one needs to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter file to set the asm_diskstring setting to recognize the LUNs that are presented to the host.
I know that Sun Solaris 10 uses /dev/rdsk/CwTxDySz naming convention at the OS level for disks. However, how would I map this to Oracle 10g ASM settings?
I cannot find this critical piece of information ANYWHERE!!!!
Thanks for your help!

Yes that is correct however due to use of Solaris 10 MPxIO multipathing software that we are using with the Hitachi SAN it does present an extra layer of complexity and issues with ASM configuration. Which means that ASM may get confused when it attempts to find the new LUNs from the Hitachi SAN at the Solaris OS level. Oracle Metalink note 396015.1 states this issue.
So my question is this: how to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter asm_diskstring to recognize the new Hitachi LUNs presented to the Solaris 10 host?
Lets say that I have the following new LUNs:
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d1s6
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d2s6
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d3s6
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d4s6
Would I set the ASM initialization parameter for asm_diskstring to /dev/rdsk/c7t1d*s6
as correct setting so that the ASM instance recognizes my new Hitachi LUNs? Solaris needs to map these LUNs using pseudo devices in the Solaris OS for ASM to recognize the new disks.
How would I set this up in Solaris 10 with Sun multipathing (MPxIO) and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
I want to get this right to avoid the dreaded ORA-15072 errors when creating a diskgroup with external redundancy for the Oracle 10g RAC ASM installation process.

Error to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0

hello,
I try to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0.
I created an ODBC connection to function in the administration tools of data sources but I can not connect once in designer.
I tried using the driver directly oracle designer 10 but I have the same error that is this:
DBD: ORA-12154: TNS: connection identifier specified could not be resolved
someone there had the same concerns?
cordially

Hi,
so it looks like that your TNSNAMES.ORA file isn`t properly configured. Thats why you can connect with the IDT to your Oracle Database.
Your DBA`s should sent you the correct TNSNAMES.ORA file or the entry for your DB prior. After the tnsping works, you will be able to use the IDT properly.

Problem to connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 at Vista sp2

Introduction
Hi guys, good day... NEED RESCUE!! SOS!! Hmm.. i have trouble been 1 weeks trying connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 on window vista sp2. Actaully im very new at Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 but i got a project is going to build up system database and i figure out Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 can use free so i just chows these appication to be my project. I been search around internet and there is several things i was found about the connection but i has try and tried still it wont work out.
Things i found and learned
Oracle
1. I have download Oracle 10g XE and installed in my windows vista sp2.
2. I notice the Oracle Developer Tools is needed for VB2010 (To add reference 'Oracle.DataAccess'). So i was downloaded ODT11beta and installed
3. I also edit TNSNAMES to following below:
OraDb =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = shin-PC)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
4. My sqlnet like following below:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)
5.I have try tnsping OraDB and its works.
6. I monitoring task manager and OracleServicesXE is running.
7. ora_dba is added in Group.
Problem in SQLPLUS
When i try connect SQLPLUS in cmd i get ERROR: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.
i . In cmd i type sqlplus and enter then i been ask for username and password.
ii. After i insert my username and password and enter then i get the error of ORA-12560.
Visual Basic 2010
1. First i created my project, drawing label and button for test connection.
2. Then, i add reference Oracle.DataAccess into my project.
3. I type following script into my vb form:
Imports System.Data
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Client
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Types
Public Class Logon
Private Sub cmdLogon_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdLogon.Click
Dim oradb As String = "Data Source = OraDb; User Id = system; Password = shin;"
Dim conn As New OracleConnection(oradb)
conn.Open()
Dim cmd As New OracleCommand
cmd.Connection = conn
cmd.CommandText = "select SName from Staff where SName = shin"
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
Dim dr As OracleDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
dr.Read()
lblOra.Text = dr.Item("SName")
conn.Dispose()
End Sub
End Class
Problem in VB2010
When i run my project and press the button i get error message ORA-12514: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified at conn.Open()
Extra Question*
1. Im notice in my netbook xp home sp2, before i install ODT11beta my sqlplus look fine thought cmd but after i installed ODT11beta its same problem with my Vista sp2 now. Get error ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error :( I tried uninstall ODT11beta again and restart its work fine again. Which i really dun understand. Izzit the version ODT11 is not suitable for 10g xe? And i dunno this problem is related with my connection between oracle 10g xe and vb2010 or not. So confuse@@
2. I wish to know more about connect between Oracle and VB, is there still a things i miss?(I mean steps or configuration that should i done)
3. Or i just lower my VB version could make more easy? If yes, what version VB should i use that could work out with oracle 10g xe?
4. Sorry for too bad my english but i really wish somebody could help me. Please try to understand my written or you could ask me mean if dont understand. Im stuck!! Stuck feel not really that good.....

Huhu..
Yo, henry
I thought the OraDb is just a name for entry but im not sure it is a service. I was refer http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/cook-vs08.html at topic Connection Strings and Objects.

Izzit ok? I notice there is no listed OraDb. but tnsping OraDb seem fine.
Actually there is somethings as a newbie i wondering long time alreadly ><
1. The origin of tnsname.ora is no OraDb or ORCL but i just simple add it by open tnsname.ora with notepad. Im just not sure it is function or not.
Also please check at my TNSNAME.ORA:
XE =

Installing Oracle 10g Forms and Reports in Cluster Mode

Dear All,
My OS version is RHEL 4
In our current setup we have oracle 10g database two node cluster and Application Server 10g to node cluster.
Currently our report server has been configured to run in standalone mode
I have been asked to configure oracle 10g forms and report server in cluster mode.
Please provide me with the documentation link to configure oracle 10g reports server in cluster mode.
Thanks and Regards
Monoj Das

my main goal is load balancing only
Then what I've done in 2007 might be what you need. In that thread there is a link to Web Cache Administrator's Guide : there you'll find everything you need to configure the web cache as a load balancer, particularly chapter 8 Setup and Configuration.
Anyway, here briefly some configurations : we have two machines, say MachineA and MachineB. The DNS resolves MachineA to a virtual address, which is normally assigned to MachineA; if MachineA crashes, it gets assigned to MachineB.
Users URL looks like this : http://MachineA:<port>/forms/frmservlet?config=<some config>
MachineA's web cache distributes connection requests between MachineA and MachineB.
Of course we're now using 11g as well, but that's another thing.

Slow first connection using Oracle 10g xe and Visual Studio 2008

{noformat}
Good day,
I'm slightly unaccustomed to using forums, so bear with me.
My initial connection to the Oracle database takes approximately 30 seconds. It seems to be waiting for a connection before timing out and trying another connection which works, as all subsequent connections work immediately. I'm unsure how other people's responses in forums can help me due to the plethora of configurations, so here's mine. My comprehension of the oracle world is still growing, you'll have to explain the terms you're using for me, Hoping you can help.
I'm using Visual Studio 2008, set to use 32 bit debug mode, on a Windows 7 Pro platform. Also using Oracle 10g Xe, and have installed the 32 bit version of ODAC 11.2 (11.2.0.1) to aid making a connection from Visual Studio to Oracle.
I have a database set up and a user with system admin rights. This is all local for a programming project and will never see the light of day outside of my personal machine.
I am using code to connect, not the GUI. I wish to code this project completely without the aid of the GUI. so my connection string within Visual Studio C# is (pw/id hidden)...
string xe = "Data Source=xe;User Id=xxxxx;Password=xxxxx;";
OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(xe);
My c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora file is this:
# sqlnet.ora Network Configuration File: C:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP, TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT, ONAMES, HOSTNAME)
And my c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\TNSNames.ora file is this:
tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: C:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = xe)
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <machine name)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = PLSExtProc)
Just for good measure, my tnsping xe shows:
"Used paramter files:<br/>
c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora<br/><br/>
Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias<br/>
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = xe)))
OK (0 msec)"
So, how can I make that initial connection faster so I don't spend 15 years testing my application due to slow start-ups? :)
Thank you.
Kevin.

I have formatted my hard drive since my first post. I was running window 64 bit with a higher version of the ODAC and that proved to crash my machine with faulty error messages about memory. I have reverted to a previous version of the ODAC tools and everything works very smooth now. Still the connection time is consistently 20 seconds or longer on the first attempt.
Just a little more information.. I am currently taking a college course with 15 other students, as you can tell by the impersonal machine name, where programming using visual studio 2008, and Oracle 10g xe is expected. All of us are using a 64 bit environment and we all have difficulties cutting down the load time of making the first connection to Oracle. Some people are longer making the connection, but none are shorter.
One other note. After the first connection is made, taking 20 or more seconds, and is closed, all subsequent openings of the connection are instantaneous, for all of us.
If there is ANYTHING more I can get for you, please let me know. With my environment stable as it is, I will not need to format or change any information for the foreseeable future.
Here is the information you requested
1 The connection method I am using, I have chosen the manual connection for you, however the delay exists if the connection is made through the GUI as well.
Historically, I am getting slow connection speeds through adding the connection through the GUI or by a manual connection. Here is how I am doing it manually. I have the connection being created in 20 seconds, which is the best I can get.

I fought for weeks about the ODAC version 11.2.0.1 that you see in the previous post, and that would be a whole new thread. Suffice it to say I have a reliable environment to program in with this 10.2.0.1.0 version that I am running now, and the connection time has not changed, it is still minimum 20 seconds load time, sometimes up to 25.

Singl/Multiple Server Oracle 10g DB and AS- Advantages and DisAdvantages

Hi Friends,
I am using Application1 using Oracle 10g Application Server and Oracle 10g database.
Now i planned to use Application2 using Oracle 10g AS and Oracle 10g DB
I need to know what will be the Advantages and Disadvantages if i have the schema for Application2 in the existing Oracle 10g DB / having it in another Oracle 10g DB Server
sameway what will be the advantages and disadvantages if i have the Application2 regsiterd in existing Oracle 10g AS(Multiple OC4J Instance) / having it in another Oracle 10g AS Server.
Regards

To start the list, for me some of the advantages are:
Same DB:
- less overhead and wasted CPU Cycles (therefore potentially lower license fees)
- easier maintenance (backup, recovery)
- easier tuning (fewer conflicting external environments asking for same resources)
- Oracle is designed for this, allows use of Resource Manager
- technically RAC is a clustered 'same DB'
Same AS:
- less overhead and wasted CPU Cycles (therefore potentially lower license fees)
- easier maintenance (backup, recovery)
- easier tuning (fewer conflicting external environments asking for same resources)
- Oracle is designed for this, use AS clustering
Different DB:
- separate maintenance (patch, upgrade) cycles for different SLA
- easier tuning (isolate tuning to one app)
- easier security (most developers have no idea about Oracle security and make merge impossible)
Different AS:
- separate maintenance (patch, upgrade) cycles for different SLA
- easier tuning (isolate tuning to one app)
- easier security (most developers have no idea about security)

Create a new user for oracle 10G ASM instance with sysdba system privilege

Hi,
In our Golden Gate Project, we require the SYS user credential to connect to the Oracle 10g ASM instance to read the database transaction logs.But our client is not providing the SYS user credential to connnect to ASM instance.
I'm getting the error message "ORA-01109: database not open",When I tried to create a new user using the below the steps in oracle 10g ASM instance
1. Login using "sqlplus / as sysdba"
2. Create user <username> identified by <password>;
But in oracle 11g ASM instance, I'm able to create new user by connecting the ASM instance with SYSASM role without issues.
Is there is any workaround to create a new user with sysdba system privilege in oracle 10g ASM instance?.
Thanks in advance .

Hi,
Recreate the password file for the ASM instance as follows:
Unix:
orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/dbs/PWD<SID> password=<sys_password>
Windows:
orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/database/PWD<SID>.ora password=<sys_password>
Now sys password is reset, we are ready to use sys for ASM management. I decided to create another user ASMDBA as I tried above.
SQL> create user ASMDBA identified by test01;
User created.
SQL> grant SYSASM, SYSOPER to ASMDBA;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> select * from v$pwfile_users;
USERNAME SYSDBA SYSOPE SYSASM
SYS TRUE TRUE TRUE
ASMDBA FALSE TRUE TRUE
Please see this link : http://orachat.com/how-to-change-asm-sys-password-creating-sysasm-user-11g/
Thank you

Oracle 10g XE and Oracle 8.1

HI,
I am new in oracle and I installed both Oracle 10g XE and after Oracle 8.17 Standard with Apache server. Does anybody know why Oracle 10g XE doesn't start (doesn't find APEX) when Oracle 8.17 is running on the same computer?
Tks,
Laurentiu

You can not use XE parallel with another Oracle instance. Only one instance per network.
Cheers!

Other than that, there are about 2 years of software changes between the .1 of each release. According to http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/whatsnew.htm#sthref37 there was some work done in forall in R1, so they probably got it right by R2.
Can I assume you have an unpatched R1?

To me it looks like your undotbs on node3 is filled and not marking old undo as expired. Use this query to find out if it is labeling old undo as expired.
SELECT tablespace_name, status, COUNT(*) AS HOW_MANY
FROM dba_undo_extents
GROUP BY tablespace_name, status;
Another thing I noticed from your alertlog is it is only doing that on undotbs3, which I assumes is on node3.
1) try recreate undotbs on node3
2) take node3 out of service (stop nodeapps, ASM, instance and finally CRS on node3) and see if you can do DML on your database.
