Oracle RAC FAN API - oracle.simplefan.*

Dear all,
has anyone got the FanListeners to submit event information by implementing the example in appendix b of the JDBC Developers guide? Except that the example has syntax errors and method names are wrong I couldn't get it to emit anything after fixing all the errors and running it. The API documentation draft is here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e13993/oracle/simplefan/package-summary.html. I am registering the Listeners with the subscription, yet regardless of what I do nothing gets written out on the console...
I am thankful for any pointers!
Martin

Hi,
1) check for any network-related issues, such as firewalls - they might be configured to block TCP connections between client and server
2) enable ALL logging for "oracle.simplefan"
And please post here your code and configuration file.

Using Oracle RAC VM tmeplates - Oracle Virtual Box

Greetings - can any one guide me to use Oracle RAC vm templates using Oracle Virtual Box?
Appreciated!

There is no need to burn a DVD because Virtualbox can directly mount and boot from the .iso image you downloaded. It is usually a good idea to check the md5 checksum of your download with the number provided by the download page to verify your download is not corrupted. There are no problems installing any version of Oracle Linux under Virtualbox provided you have the right hardware. I suggest to check the Virtualbox documentation.
Note: This is not a Virtualbox forum.

Hi Andreas,
Thanks you for your help. I am trying to implement third party external LDAP authentication for APEX and Forms.
So I started with OID and SSO setup to create external Partner Applications. Some reason my oid and sso web login links are not working. I didn't find any errors. I need some help in finding the problem and direction, I already read docs on web but no proper direction. I appreciate your help.

Oracle RAC Interconnect, PowerVM VLANs, and the Limit of 20

Hello,
Our company has a requirement to build a multitude of Oracle RAC clusters on AIX using Power VM on 770s and 795 hardware.
We presently have 802.1q trunking configured on our Virtual I/O Servers, and have currently consumed 12 of 20 allowed VLANs for a virtual ethernet adapter. We have read the Oracle RAC FAQ on Oracle Metalink and it seems to otherwise discourage the use of sharing these interconnect VLANs between different clusters. This puts us in a scalability bind; IBM limits VLANs to 20 and Oracle says there is a one-to-one relationship between VLANs and subnets and RAC clusters. We must assume we have a fixed number of network interfaces available and that we absolutely have to leverage virtualized network hardware in order to build these environments. "add more network adapters to VIO" isn't an acceptable solution for us.
Does anyone know if Oracle can afford any flexibility which would allow us to host multiple Oracle RAC interconnects on the same 802.1q trunk VLAN? We will independently guarantee the bandwidth, latency, and redundancy requirements are met for proper Oracle RAC performance, however we don't want a design "flaw" to cause us supportability issues in the future.
We'd like it very much if we could have a bunch of two-node clusters all sharing the same private interconnect. For example:
Cluster 1, node 1: 192.168.16.2 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 1, node 2: 192.168.16.3 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 2, node 1: 192.168.16.4 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 2, node 2: 192.168.16.5 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 3, node 1: 192.168.16.6 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 3, node 2: 192.168.16.7 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 4, node 1: 192.168.16.8 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 4, node 2: 192.168.16.9 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
etc.
Whereas the concern is that Oracle Corp will only support us if we do this:
Cluster 1, node 1: 192.168.16.2 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 1, node 2: 192.168.16.3 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 16
Cluster 2, node 1: 192.168.17.2 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 17
Cluster 2, node 2: 192.168.17.3 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 17
Cluster 3, node 1: 192.168.18.2 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 18
Cluster 3, node 2: 192.168.18.3 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 18
Cluster 4, node 1: 192.168.19.2 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 19
Cluster 4, node 2: 192.168.19.3 / 255.255.255.0 / VLAN 19
Which eats one VLAN per RAC cluster.

Thank you for your answer!!
I think I roughly understand the argument behind a 2-node RAC and a 3-node or greater RAC. We, unfortunately, were provided with two physical pieces of hardware to virtualize to support production (and two more to support non-production) and as a result we really have no place to host a third RAC node without placing it within the same "failure domain" (I hate that term) as one of the other nodes.
My role is primarily as a system engineer, and, generally speaking, our main goals are eliminating single points of failure. We may be misusing 2-node RACs to eliminate single points of failure since it seems to violate the real intentions behind RAC, which is used more appropriately to scale wide to many nodes. Unfortunately, we've scaled out to only two nodes, and opted to scale these two nodes up, making them huge with many CPUs and lots of memory.
Other options, notably the active-passive failover cluster we have in HACMP or PowerHA on the AIX / IBM Power platform is unattractive as the standby node drives no resources yet must consume CPU and memory resources so that it is prepared for a failover of the primary node. We use HACMP / PowerHA with Oracle and it works nice, however Oracle RAC, even in a two-node configuration, drives load on both nodes unlike with an active-passive clustering technology.
All that aside, I am posing the question to both IBM, our Oracle DBAs (whom will ask Oracle Support). Typically the answers we get vary widely depending on the experience and skill level of the support personnel we get on both the Oracle and IBM sides... so on a suggestion from a colleague (Hi Kevin!) I posted here. I'm concerned that the answer from Oracle Support will unthinkingly be "you can't do that, my script says to tell you the absolute most rigid interpretation of the support document" while all the time the same document talks of the use of NFS and/or iSCSI storage eye roll
We have a massive deployment of Oracle EBS and honestly the interconnect doesn't even touch 100mbit speeds even though the configuration has been checked multiple times by Oracle and IBM and with the knowledge that Oracle EBS is supposed to heavily leverage RAC. I haven't met a single person who doesn't look at our environment and suggest jumbo frames. It's a joke at this point... comments like "OMG YOU DON'T HAVE JUMBO FRAMES" and/or "OMG YOU'RE NOT USING INFINIBAND WHATTA NOOB" are commonplace when new DBAs are hired. I maintain that the utilization numbers don't support this.
I can tell you that we have 8Gb fiber channel storage and 10Gb network connectivity. I would probably assume that there were a bottleneck in the storage infrastructure first. But alas, I digress.
Mainly I'm looking for a real-world answer to this question. Aside from violating every last recommendation and making oracle support folk gently weep at the suggestion, are there any issues with sharing interconnects between RAC environments that will prevent it's functionality and/or reduce it's stability?
We have rapid spanning tree configured, as far as I know, and our network folks have tuned the timers razor thin. We have Nexus 5k and Nexus 7k network infrastructure. The typical issues you'd fine with standard spanning tree really don't affect us because our network people are just that damn good.

Oracle rac 11g installation

Hi
Am planning to install oracle RAC 11g on linux server. Have doubt on installation of clusterware or grid infrastructure first .?
I think grid infrastructure covers clusterware and ASM both and then oracle 11g software to be installed.
But how to download grid insfrastructure software. Will it come with oracle 11g software..? or need to download it seperately.?
Because when i try to download oracle RAC 11g which gives link to download the 11g software not grid.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
Its called "oracle one node rac" you will find plenty of documents on metalink, extract is below, hope this helps you to understand the differences.
Oracle RAC Database : Oracle RAC database is a clustered database. It can have more than one instance running on one or more hosts. To make is database RAC , there is another software needs to be installed called Oracle Grid infrastructure which takes care of multinode sync, ASM, Oracle restart etc. Oracle GI is necessary as a base of Oracle RAC. In Oracle RAC, the load is balanced across multiple instance of databases running on different nodes. This is best for Production database. Failure of any instance is abstracted from user and forwarded to another instance from the database server pool. No of instances can be controlled using Policy Managed or Admin Managed.
Oracle RAC One Node : Some time we need to have RAC databases but donot need many instances, why? Simple answers to it is leverage the high availability of RAC. The Oracle RAC One node is a RAC DB runs on one host. The advantage is it saves your resource, can to converted to full RAC any time, Cluster fail over i.e. the Database instance is moved to new instance in case of any failure on host known as Instance Relocation,easy to upgrade etc. This type of database is well suited for small production and dev/test environments.

Oracle RAC requires ODP?

I am starting a new project with the following scenario: .Net 2.0 web application accessing Oracle RAC (64 bits) using Data Access Application Block. I would like to know if it is required to use ODP to access Oracle RAC or Microsoft Oracle Data Provider could be used. Another questions: Do ODP supports .Net 2.0? Is it possible to configure ODP in Data Access Application Block?
Any help is appreciated.
Luciana

Hi,
ODP.NET does not currently support ADO2.0. There should be a beta coming up sometime soon for it, and there are other threads you can check to get info to get in on the beta if you want to do that.
A lot of the RAC functionality is handled by the underlying client, so both ODP's should be able to take advantage of it, at least in some sense. However, as of 10.2, Oracle's ODP has additional functionality to be able to get notification when RAC events occur.
I dont know much about DAAP, but believe there are other threads where folks have converted it to Oracle code.
Hope that helps,
Greg

Oracle RAC Concept - load balancing

Hello All,
I have a question about Oracle RAC and how it balance loading.
What I know about Oracle RAC that it balancing load between its node, so if a new session is connected to the Database it will execute on the node which have less load.
If I am having an application that connects to the database with few number of sessions and some sessions have huge (huge load) processes to execute while the other sessions are executing small process (in terms of load).
So below is an example scenario that i am asking for an answer of it:
if am having a two node RAC database.
My application that is connected to this RAC database wants to execute three processes P1, P2 and P3 each will have a session correspondingly S1, S2 and S3
Let is say that P1 will take 60% of the database resources (memory ....) and P2 will take 1% and P3 1%.
So my question is it a sessions load balancing or Processes load balancing ? So in case and randomly (Managed by ORACLE RAC) S1 is connected to node 1 and it is using node 1 resources so the load on node 1 will be 60%, so when S2 and S3 needs to connect it will go to node 2 since node 1 is loaded. in that case i will have Node 1 using 60% of it is resources (becuase of S1 that is executing P1) while node 2 only uses 2 % (because of S2 and S3 that is executing P2 and P3).
Is that how Oracle RAC works ? or it balance the load of S1 (60%) between node 1 and node 2 ?
I am asking this question since my application is not users application, so it will connect to the database with few number of sessions, and 1 session of them may execute a huge process while the other are executing small processes.
So in that case, how RAC is doing the balance loading?
Regards,

i hope , this links may help you.

How an aplications sever will communicate with Oracle RAC?

Hi, I wonder how the applacations server will communicate with the two nodes Oracle RAC. Do I have to install an Oracle client to the application server and configure tnsname.ora file to connect with the nodes?
Have any one any experience to share and help me?

That depends on the driver being used. Here are some examples for the JDBC connections
url="jdbc:oracle:oci:@TNS_ALIAS"
url="jdbc:oracle:oci:@(DESCRIPTION=

(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=clusnode-1vip)(PORT=1521))
