Oracle 11g Performance (DW or OLTP)

Hi
I have a what I consider a large oracle database, that I'm having performance problems with. It is designed as a star schema with a very large fact table (15 billion records) and one of the dimensions has 1 Billion records. The data is being inserted is split 10/90 between batch and single inserts and that table space is defined as 8k. Currently there are 100Million inserts a day into the fact table and we would like to tripple that load. Select response takes hours, the raw space being used is 6TB including all the index overhead.
Does anyone have any advise? It this database considered OLTP or DW? The fact table (PARAMETER_VALUE) average row size is 46 bytes.
This is my fact table

TABLESPACE HPS_STG_DATA,
Would reference partition help? Would 32K tablespace help? I'm experiencing a lot or ITL waits on the Fact table.

A good starting point would be to read Tim Gorman's paper about scaling to infinity. It seems likely that you will want to figure out a way that new data finds its way into your DW through some variety of partition exchange. Even if that is not the case, Tim's excellent paper should help you to frame your thinking on the subject in a useful way.
Good luck,

Newbie question about Oracle 11G performance

I have a situation where a newer better faster server running Oracle 11gR1 is running considerably slower than an older slower server running Oracle 10gR2.
Both of these servers have the same web applications and same dumpfiles loaded into them.
I personally installed the Oracle 11g on the new server, however, I didn't install the 10gR2 on the older server, some one else did...
I have checked what I think are the basics: the tables are not missing constraints, the automatic memory management is enabled.
I know this is a really broad question.
Newer server:
Quad-Core AMD Opteron Processor 2352 2.10 GHz (2 processors)
16 GB memory
Windows Server 2008, 64 bit
Raid 5
Older Server:
Intel Xeon 1.8 GHz (2 processors)
4 GB memory
Windows Server 2003, 32 bit
Raid 5

Hi Derik,
I know this is a really broad question. No, it happens all the time! Here is a similar issue:
http://blog.tuningknife.com/2008/09/26/oracle-11g-performance-issue/
+"In the end, nothing I tried could dissuade 11g from emitting the “PARSING IN CURSOR #d+” message for each insert statement. I filed a service request with Oracle Support on this issue and they ultimately referred the issue to development as a bug. Note that Support couldn’t reproduce the slowness I was seeing, but their trace files did reflect the parsing messages I observed."+
I would:
1 - Start by examining historical SQL execution plans (stats$sql_plan or dba_hist_sql_plan). Try to isolate the exact nature of the decreased performance.
Are different indexes being used? Are you geting more full-table scans?
2 - Migrate-in your old 10g CBO statistics
3 - Confirm that all init.ora parms are identical
4 - Drill into each SQL with a different execution plan . . .
Raid 5 Don't believe that crap that all RAID-5 is evil. . . .
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_raid5_acceptable_oracle.htm
But at the same time, consider using the Oracle standard, RAID-10 . . .
Hope this helps . . .

Oracle 11g Performance tuning approach ?

Hello Experts,
Is it the right forum to follow oracle performance tuning discussions ? If not, let me know what will be the forum to pick up some thread on this subject.
I am looking for performance tuning approach for oracle 11g. I learned there are some new items in 11g in this regard. For persons, who did tuning in earlier versions of Oracle,
what will be the best way adopt to 11 g?
I reviewed the 11g performance tuning guide, but I am looking for some white papers/blogs with case studies and practical approaches. I hope that you have used them.
What are the other sources to pick up some discussions?
Do you mind, share your thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

in both explain plan only difference is
9 BITMAP CONVERSION TO ROWIDS
8 BITMAP AND
5 BITMAP CONVERSION FROM ROWIDS
but is bitmap degrading performance lot?
or suggest me what other parameter i can see so 2nd instance gives me better performace.

I see more differences.
In plan 1:
* 16 INDEX RANGE SCAN idx_bf_creation_date 76 1 (0) 00:00:01
in Plan 2:
1 INDEX FULL SCAN (MIN/MAX) INDEX REPORTSDB.idx_bf_creation_date Cost: 3 Bytes: 8 Cardinality: 1
So this is not about "bitmap" good/bad, it about the access strategy which changed due to differences in data statistics etc. To analyze more, I'd help a LOT if those plans would be formated in a good and same way, use around it to do so.

Oracle 11g Performance Issue

We have Oracle 11g (11.1.0.6) on HP-UX environment with CC&B application. It was working fine and after we upgrade the database to 11.1.0.7 last week, since then the database performance is really slow. After we upgrade the database we notice that xdb component became invalid.
We are not sure how to investigate this issue, any help would be appreciated.

Which tool is used for Oracle 11g performance tuning?

Hi all
I used statspack for 9i's performance tuning.
But with 11g R2 now I want to know which way are you using to do performance tuning?
Statspack? OSW? RDA? ADDM? Or other ways?
Thank you.

SriniThanks for your answer.
To read the MOS documents I need a Oracle Customer ID , is that right ?
(Where to get that ID ? Our company bought Oracle 10g without any Customer IDs in it )

Oracle 11g Performance tunning

Hi Guru's
I am new to Performance tunning, can u please guide me from where to start performance tuning so that i study and do the practical as well.
I know how to run AWR and ADDM but i want to konw what are the sequence i follow to learn and do performance tunning.
Thanks in advance

best would be to start with http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16638/toc.htm

Studying for Oracle 11g Performance and Tuning exam - 1Z0-054

Hello all,
I want to attend to this exam and I'm looking for interesting and usefull studying path. Sure manuals on tahiti are needed.
Neither sefltestsoftware not Testking has released a proficiency test for this exam. I was only able to find a test from Braindumps here (http://www.exam4test.net/1Z1-054) but not sure this is a serious material.
Any hints about this material and / or any other suggestions?
Thanks
Stefano

Hi Stefano
Seems that our friends from Certguard aren't sure that this a legal provider, but the look and feel would say to avoid that site.
Try the http://www.certguard.com/braindump-quiz.asp it matches very well to the site or?
Besides that while looking on the domain i found that
Domains being linked from exam4test.com
* Traffic rank 252963. test-inside.com
* Traffic rank 940584. exam4test.net
and those sites aren't clean.

[1Z0-054] Oracle 11g Performance and Tuning

Hi all,
does anyone has already taken this exam? I just want to know which study materials you've used and also if there's any online testing software.
I've downloaded ucertify test for this exam but I'm not sure that is a great and affordable testing tools...
Thanks
Steve

Some people have given more positive opinion on some more recent Ucertify practice tests than this on this forum.
I would not completely write off Ucertify practice tests .... but if you buy them:
They may not have same quality as SelfTestSoftware
They may not represent value for money.
They probably give full topic coverage.
They could even have incorrect answers for all I know.
However they may help you identify some weak areas.
If you buy expecting a 5*Hotel you may be disappointed, if you buy expecting a room with a hammock and cockroaches you may be happy about it.
(Please note I have not bought the tests .... it is only from feedback to this forum).

Oracle 11g advantages for performance

Hello,
I am doing test of Client side result set cache on oracle 11 g rel2 ,O/S- RHEL
i am doing test as below on 2 Oracle 11g rel2 test servers on RHEL
one oracle 11g rel2 instance is used as server1,from other oracle 11g rel2 server2, i am running queries connecting to server1 through sqlplus,listener(tnsnames )
i run query few times without any client cache settings then
i have set init.ora paras for oracle 11g rel2 for client result cache,cache size/cache lag
i run the same query few times
in both the cases after each run i am noting statistics
select * from V$RESULT_CACHE_OBJECTS;
select * from V$CLIENT_RESULT_CACHE_STATS;
select * from gv$cpool_conn_info;
also autotrace,plan etc
but after using cache this views are getting poplulated ,autiotrace plan shows cache is used
but i cant see any improvement in performance after using client cache like speed,reduce network trip, etc
in fact without using cache/with no hint ,query executes faster
let me know if i am missing something,i believe sqlplus internally using OCI
thanks

I tested with custom code using java/jdbc thin driver ,connecting same as between 2 oracle 11g2 instance 1 as client other server,running code calling queries from client connecting to server

Unless you plan to provide the information ask for about what it is you are doing there really isn't any point in providing status updates that: you test this, you tested that. You made several statements about what you were doing

You say you are doing a bunch of things
But you don't post any of those results so we can see what it is you are looking at.
No one can comment on things they can't see.
>
You have to be using OCI for client side caching so if you use the Java thin driver but don't use OCI there won't be any cacheing. There also won't be any if it is not enabled or if the query has certain constraints as listed in the doc
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28395/oci10new.htm#CHDGGFEF
>
Queries that are not Cached
There are queries that are not cached on the OCI client even if the result cache hint is specified. Such queries may be cached on the database if the server result cache feature is enabled (see Oracle Database Concepts, "SQL Query Result Cache" for more information). If a SQL query includes any of the following, then the result set of that query is not cached in the OCI client result cache:
•Views
•Remote objects
•Complex types in the select list
•Snapshot-based or flashback queries
•Queries executed in a serializable, read-only transaction, or inside a flashback session
•Queries that have PL/SQL functions in them
•Queries that have VPD policies enabled on the tables

This Oracle-Developer.net article author doesn't seem to have any trouble caching results.

Oracle 11g Migration performance issue

Hello,
There a performance issue with Migration from Oracle 10g(10.2.0.5) to Oracle 11g(11.2.0.2).
Its very simple statement hanging for more than a day and later found that query plan is very very bad. Example of the query is given below:
INSERT INTO TABLE_XYZ
SELECT F1,F2,F3
FROM TABLE_AB, TABLE_BC
WHERE F1=F4;
While looking at cost in Explain plan :
on 10g --> 62567
0n 11g --> 9879652356776
Strange thing is that
Scenario 1: if I issue just query as shown below, will display rows immediately :
SELECT F1,F2,F3
FROM TABLE_AB, TABLE_BC
WHERE F1=F4;
Scenario 2: If I create a table as shown below, will work correctly.
CREATE TABLE TABLE_XYZ AS
SELECT F1,F2,F3
FROM TABLE_AB, TABLE_BC
WHERE F1=F4;
What could be the issue here with INSERT INTO <TAB> SELECT <COL> FROM <TAB1>?

Oracle 10g vs Oracle 11g query performance

Hi everyone,
We are moving from Oracle 10g to Oracle 11g database.
I have a query which in Oracle 1g takes 85 seconds to run, but when I run the same query in Oracle 11g database, it takes 635 seconds.
I have confirmed that all indexes on tables involved are enabled.
Does anyone have any pointers, what should I look into. I have compared explain plans and clearly they are different. Oracle 11g is taking a different approach than Oracle 1g.
Thanks

Pl post details of OS versions, exact database versions (to 4 digits) and init.ora parameters of the 10g and 11g databases. Have statistics been gathered after the upgrade ?
For posting tuning requests, pl see these threads

Can i use "Oracle Database 12c: Performance Management and Tuning " training for getting certification on "Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning 1Z0-054"

i have taken "Oracle Database 12c: Performance Management and Tuning new" training from oracle university. Now i would like to get certified on "Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning 1Z0-054" exam. Is it possible ?

I essentially endorse and refer you to Matthews' and John's post above.
I would differ with slightly with Matthew because my guess is you would often be able to use like for like 12c training for an 11g certification ( I believe there are precedents). BEFORE ANYONE ASKS THE OTHER WAY DOESN'T HAPPEN.
.... but totally concur with Matthew you would ill advised to procede on that basis without one of:
- This being advertised as possible on the website : e.g. https://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=654&get_params=p_id:169 ... option 2 show courses.
- Confirmation from Brandye
- Confirmation from an Oracle Certification Support Web Ticket ( http://education.oracle.com/pls/eval-eddap-dcd/OU_SUPPORT_OCP.home?p_source=OCP )
... The more common (and in my opinion usually better) way would be get your 11g DBA OCP ( or higher first) and then take the 1z0-054. I am almost certain they will accept your 12c course for the 11g DBA OCP.
If you are choosing the route of not being a 11g (or 12c ) DBA OCP first but are on option 2 and relying on the course for certification then the issue is more in the balance and you are even more strongly advised to get confirmation before proceding (remember if the rules need to be changed for you only then any profit out of the exam is lost).
In general my understanding is Oracle would prefer to encourage people to train on the latest version of product that is available for training and will prefer to avoid restrictions which would cause you to train at a lower version. ( This is simply my guess at Oracle University Policy ... personal opinion only).
Having said all I have said I'd encourage you to go with the advice of the earlier two posts.

Oracle 11g Database Performance

We have Oracle 11g (11.1.0.6) database on HP-UX (IA). It’s around 200G database, and we have lot of batch job and reports running against this database. This database is performing really bad, whenever we restart the application and the database its performing good batch jobs are running for 2 hrs, the time will increase gradually and after few days same job taking more that 20 hrs some times its not even complete we manually kill it.
So I am guessing this is related to memory (SGA) issue, we have configured automatic memory management. But I don’t know where/what to look to find the root cause. Can some one help me to find a problem?
