ORACLE performance monitor

Hi All,
Please advice me for the ORACLE system performance Monitor.
Client asl us that they are facing speedy issues every morning over the past fortnight with our SEER reports in business objects where the pages are taking a long time to access or refresh.
He ask us to monitor the oracle system performnace between 4 AM to 8 AM every morning, Please advice me how to monitor the performnace and what are all steps I have to take.
What are all quries I have to use.
We are using oracle 11.1.0.7 database.
Thanks in advance

Hi Sam,
Please advice me for the ORACLE system performance Monitor.There are lots of options - from within Oracle itself to 3rd
party software, both free and commercial.
Client asl us that they are facing speedy issues every morning over the past
fortnight with our SEER reports in business objects where the pages are
taking a long time to access or refresh.How do they know? Do they have actual figures to show that the
system has slowed down.
He ask us to monitor the oracle system performnace between 4 AM to 8 AM
every morning, Please advice me how to monitor the performnace and what
are all steps I have to take.Do you have any results from any monitoring done prior to now? If not,
you're in trouble since you won't be able to detect any changes from a
baseline.
As was suggested, use AWR (if you're licenced), if not, use Statspack,
every 30 mins or so and check to see if there are any bottlenecks.
HTH,
Paul...

Oracle Performance monitoring GUI tools

hi,
We have Oracle 10g / 11g database on which SAP instances are running. Whenever, any bottleneck issue, I used to logon as ora<sid> and look for processes / space/ file system space etc.
Wondering, if any Oracle GUI tool available to monitor. I am not very familiar with oracle tools.
Thanks,
Raj S

Hi,
Also you can use the Oracle tool - Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control. The Oracle Universal Installer installs Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control when you install the Oracle software. Enterprise Manager Database Control provides a Web-based interface that you can use to manage your Oracle instance and database.

Error installing Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor

Hello,
I have installed Oracle EE 11g 11.2.0.1.0 on a Windows 2008 R2 server. Now, I am using the Oracle Universal Installer to install the Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor 11.2.0.1.0
Source path is D:\Share\11gR2_win32_11gR2_database_install\database\stage\products.xml
Installation Type is Custom
Install Location is C:\app\dmadmin
Path is C:\app\dmadmin\OraHome_1
I de-select all product components and select the following two:
Oracle Windows Interfaces 11.2.0.1.0
Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor 11.2.0.1.0
I get the following error:
OUI-10150:Error: A runtime exception occurred while setting s_digCfgNamingLabelSIDnull in component Database 11g 11.2.0.1.0 . Installation cannot continue for this component.
I am given the choice of Stop installation of all products and Stop installation of this component only which both result in non-installation of selected component.
Does anyone have any advice or solutions for this error? I have tried re-booting the server, but get the same error.
Thanks for your assistance,
Stumped

OUI from ORACLE_HOME (OH\oui\bin\setup.exe) cannot be used to install components from 11.2.0.1 installation media (products.xml)
This is documented, but I am not able to locate it now.
Have you checked if the Performance Monitor files are already installed or not?
Thanks

How to improve my performance activities on Oracle server.
Please guide me regarding this issue.
If anyone wants more info, please let me know.
Best regards,

Are you sure that it is not an application constraint ? i.e. the application can't handle so much data per second ? (application locks, threads )
Have you tried to write a simple test program, which inserts predefined data (which your application inserts) the same data, only changing keys ?
Then comparing the values from the 1st and the 2nd configuration ?
Did you check the way your application is communicating with oracle ? If it is TCP/ip (even on the local machine) then this is your main problem.
And one more thing, do you know if your application is able to run the load (inserts) of data on different threads (i.e. in parallel), because if is not, you won't be able to push the speed higher because your constraint is the speed of a single CPU. Consider running several process, which loads the data.
We had the same problem ot AIX machines with 4 cpus. Monitoring the machine, we found that only 25% (1 cpu) where in use. We had to run 4 processes to push the speed up. Check your system's overal load while running the 'load' (inserts).
log_checkpoint_interval = 10000
Check if this value is appropriate. Maybe you should set it to 0 (infinite). This will disable checkpoints on a 'number of undo record' basis. Checpoints will occure only on log switch.
How much redo files per redo groups do you have ? What is their size ? Are they on different disks ? How much redo data is generated by a single 'record' inserted ?
Hope i helped at least a little.

OEM-Performance monitoring

Hi we are running oracle 8.1.6 and I am seeking some your advice and expertise on OEM.
We like to use OEM for a lot of our Database performance monitoring and tuning and I like to know how reliable this Management tool is. I have heard some negative comments about OEM like: "it is very buggy", "can't rely on it", " it is not quite there yet".
We do have some issues with its installation and configuration on Solaris, and I am beginning to feel that other rumors might be true too.
Is there any one out there who has a good, positive experience with OEM that can convince me we can choose it as a reliable tool to monitor the performance of our database???
Please share.

The document link Eric sent pretty much covered the installation and configuration part.
also crosscheck EM admin guide,
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/em.920/a96670/toc.htm
It's part of EM installation.

Oracle Performance tunning genral question

Hi,
Below is the list of Areas of Oracle db for which tunning activities are done. You are invited to comment to it weather this is complete list or need some addition or deletion. As I'm learning PT for Oracle now a days, therefore I want to expand my knowledge by sharing what I'm learning and what I need to learn.
So comment with Open hearts on it. Espically from experts and Gurus.
Here is the List
1-Planning for Performance, include Storage consideration( Weather it is SAN, NAS, DAS), Network planning and host OS planning with proper configuration for running Oracle.
2-Database desining (Not under-Normalized and not Over-Normalized with proper usage of Indexes, views and Stored Procedures)
3- Instance tunning (Memory structure + B.g Processes)
4- Session tunning.
5- Segment Space tunning.
6- SQL tunning.
This is what uptill what I've learned. If it needs addition kindly tell me what are these. Please also provide me links(good and precise one) for PT tutorials on web.Also note that I'm discussing this w.r.t Single instance non-rac db.
Looking for Good sugessions
Regards,
Abbasi

OBIEE 11g Application Performance Monitoring

Are there any best practices or recommendations for Application Performance Monitoring for OBIEE 11g?
I see that from Fusion MiddleWare Control, we can navigate to Business Intelligence -> CoreApplication (right click) -> Monitoring -> Performance
And from here we have a huge amount of performance metrics to choose from.
What I'm interested in finding out is:
1). Out of these hundreds of metrics, are there a subset of "core" performance metrics that Oracle recommends monitoring that gives a good baseline for performance of the application?
2) What are the options for capturing/gathering/saving these metrics for historical and trend analysis?

Excellent post. Thanks. Is there some sort of trial of the tool you guys built that's described in the post you linked?
"In addition to the out-of-the-box options above, here at RittmanMead we have developed our own OBIEE monitoring tool.
DMS metrics are stored directly on disk or through a database, enabling both immediate and retrospective analysis. Custom dashboards enable the display of both OBIEE and OS data side-by-side for ease of analysis. Integration with third-party tools is also an option."

Performance monitor CF9 Windows 2008 R2 x64

When I enable the performance counters for coldfusion 9, I'm not able to add any counters in the performance monitor.
I can add counters in the 32 bit version of perfmon (mmc /32 perfmon.msc) but that is only because the CF9 performance counters seem to be incompatible with the 32 bit performance monitor.
The really weird thing is that when I tried to enable 1 single counter at a time they all worked, including the Coldfusion 9 counters.
The CF9 counters only work in combination with a few other counters;
.NET CLR Data
.NET CLR Networking
.NET Data Provider for Oracle
.NET Data Provider for SqlServer
.NET Framework
BITS
WmiApRpl
There is a bug tracked for what seems to be the same problem on Windows 7, this was closed but I dont know of any fix for this.
http://cfbugs.adobe.com/cfbugreport/flexbugui/cfbugtracker/main.html#bugId=83344
I would appreciate any help in the right direction.
Thanks for reading,
Jay

Hello,
Perhaps enable CFSTAT, CFadminUI > Debugging & Logging > Debug Output Settings > Enable CFSTAT .Do you get values for the same counters when using cfstat (eg C:\ColdFusion\bin>cfstat 5)?
CFSTAT uses similar counters as CF Performance Monitor.
HTH, Carl.

NT 의 PERFORMANCE MONITOR 를 CHECK 하기
=======================================
PURPOSE
NT의 performance MONITOR에서 ORACLE PERFORMANCE를 CHECK 하는
방법을 알아보자.
Explanation
NT 의 performance 에서 oracle 의 performance 도 check 가 가능하다.
이의 설정은 다음과 같다.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM >currentControlSet > Services >
Oracle7 >performance
Hostname ='2:ORCL'
username='SYSTEM’
password='MANAGER’
만일 이를 setting 하였는데도 performance monitor 의 check 가
불가능한 경우 다음의 실행 file 을 실행하여야 한다.
lodctr %ORACLE_HOME%\dbs\opctrnm.ini - for Oracle7
lodctr %ORACLE_HOME%\dbs\opctrn80.ini - for Oracle8
이의 check 로 다음을 check 할 수 있다.
CPU time /memory bottleneck
Memory pages input/sec
Memory pages output/sec
Memory pages faults/sec
Memory pages pages/sec
Percentage Processor time
Percentage Privileged Time
Percentage user time

Which Performance Monitoring Tool is good for Weblogic?

Please advise me on good performance monitoring software. Budget is no issue.
A typical performance monitoring tool has:
Server monitoring
Application server monitoring
Database monitoring
Web services monitoring
Virtualization monitoring
An example is ManageEngine's Applications Manager
currenty, I want to monitor:
1 - BEA Weblogic server 8.1
2 - Oracle 9i Rel 2
Once I can identify the bottlenecks, recommendation for hardware / software upgrade can be made easily.
Thanks.

Thanks Faisal, I will evaluate this product if full functional trial version is available.
so far I have come to know about these tools:
Applications Manager
up.time
Still not sure which one brings more value to the business.
Regards,
Yasar

No or Low Overhead Performance Monitoring

Reading V$ or X$ tables for performance monitoring generates very high overhead on Database. These tables are nothing but dymamic views over SGA. Is there any way or any API available to read directly from SGA.
Thanks & Regards
Rajesh

Really I have never heard anything alike before but
perhaps with this document you can find something
about it.
