Oracle Real Application Testing

I'm capturing a 10.2.0.5 RAC workload and attempting to replay it on a 11.2.0.3 RAC. All the Docs describe going from a standalone node to RAC and all the steps for doing so. However, I can't find anything outlining the process from RAC to RAC.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

ThanksIt's in there, you just need to look around for it (and probably do a bit of reading).
Things like
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16540/dbr_capture.htm#CACICAAC
Only one workload capture can be performed at any given time. If you have a Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) configuration, workload capture is performed for the entire database. To enable a clean state before starting to capture the workload, all the instances need to be restarted.
and
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16540/dbr_replay.htm#CHDBCADJ
For Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) databases, you can map all connection strings to a load balancing connection string. This is especially useful if the number of nodes on the replay system is different from the capture system. Alternatively, if you want to direct workload to specific instances, you can use services or explicitly specify the instance identifier in the remapped connection strings.
Cheers,

  • How to use "Oracle Real Application Testing"

    I am analyzing if/how my employer can make best use of "Oracle Real Application Testing". I therefore read various documentation and articles as well as the relevant sections in the "Oracle® Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference". However, there is one conceptual question which I could not yet answer from this documentation.
    From what I understood there are (at least) two possible approaches to capture and replay SQL workload:
    1) Capture the workload into a STS (SQL Tuning Set) using DBMS_SQLTUNE. Replay the workload before/after changes made to the system using DBMS_SQLPA. DBMS_SQLPA can be further used to compare the before/after execution and to generate comparison reports thereof.
    2) Capture the workload into OS files (and optionally into a SQL Tuning Set in addition to that) using DBMS_WORKLOAD_CAPTURE. Replay the workload using DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPLAY. DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPLAY can be further used to compare different replay runs and generate reports thereof.
    Now my questions are:
    {noformat}(i){noformat} Is the overview I sketched above correct or did I misunderstand/miss important points?
    (ii) What is the conceptual difference between the two approaches depicted in (1) and (2) above / what is the intended use for each of them?
    (iii) What is the difference between the information that DBMS_WORKLOAD_CAPTURE writes in the corresponding OS files and the information that is stored in a STS? From what I understand, both store information related to SQL execution during a certain period, including the impact of each SQL on the entire workload. Are the two just different formats to store the data (within and outside of the database) or is there any different information stored in them?

  • Real application testing

    Hi,
    Os:Windows 2003 and Red hat 5 ( two Environments)
    Db:Oracle 11.1.6
    How to check the Load Balancing in Oracle Real Application Testing.
    For Ex:
    Lets assume that we have 5 users 10
    tranactions/SQl statement executions. How will be the system
    perform, if we have 20% increase in the current workload or 10 users 20
    transactions...
    Currently we are having 2 node oracle 10gR2 cluster on windows 2003.
    Regards,
    Vinodh.N

    Hi,
    Thanks for reply.
    Can i check the workload gradually(5users and 10 users and so on...) in Real Application Testing in oracle11g or oracle 10.2.0.4. ?
    If n't,how can i check the workload in oracle 11g or oracle 10g?
    Real Application Testing means only captured workload in production db and replay in test db.Is it correct?

  • Oracle real application cluster test case

    Hello everyone! I have just finished implemented oracle real application for customer. Now I need to do UAT for them with cases. Some of the cases I am not sure whether it can make the cluster fail, or need to repair, or unrecoverable. I need to tell them what is happening if sth go wrong as the following cases:
    case 1. connection from database server to storage is down in one node, or all node in the cluster.
    case 2. private connection down
    case 3. public network down in node node or all nodes in the cluster.
    Please, help address the status and behavior of oracle rac, or suggest me some useful document regarding this cases.
    I'll appreciate your help.

  • Real Application Testing , hardware changes.

    hi ,
    Have always wondered How Real application test would over come one of the cost Common issues in Testing. Here is the scenario .
    Lets say , Customer is running oracle 10.2.0.5 on a Server with 16 proc's and 24 cores and 150 GB RAM on his production box ,
    Now he wants to test 11.2 on this test box, with lesser hardware specs. say 8 proc's and 12 cores and 60 GB RAM ,
    My doubt is , how will the replay process in RAT overcome this change and compare the test with production ???

    You must understand that RAT is actually a term. The underlying ways would depend on what you want to test and to what extent? Since you have mentioned a hardware change, the suggested way would be to use DB Replay using which you would capture the workload from the prod box, move it to the test box and replay that workload under the changed hardware. Using DB Replay would allow you to have a delta between the two runs and you can measure the performance gains(or loss) .
    Have a read,

  • How to learn Real Application Testing

    How to Learn and Test the Real Application Testing and SQL performance analyzer.
    We only have oracle 10g. Does this require 11g.
    Can I learn/test on 10g.

    Hi,
    RAT is the feature of 11g. You can capture the load from 10g though, but for playing it you will need 11g databse.

  • Real Application Testing/Sql Performance Analyzer Docs in 10g....

    I believed that both the tools mentioned in the subject are a part of 11g and so are in the 11g docs.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/e12253/toc.htm
    But I was just looking at 10g book listing and I saw the same book in 10g documentation as well.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/e12024/toc.htm
    Now my best guess is that this is due to the backporting of 11g tools for the previous releases. Means that we can do RAT or use SPA in pre 11g databases as well so this doc book is added. Is it correct or there is some other reason?
    Cheers
    Aman....

    Real Application Testing was introduced as a new feature in Oracle Database 11g. The documentation for Real Application Testing was released in 4 phases.
    In the initial phase, the usage of Real Application Testing was documented in the Performance Tuning Guide for release 11.1.
    In the second phase, the Real Application Testing User's Guide was released for release 10.2 to document certain backported functionalities. For Database Replay, the capability to capture a database workload was backported. For SQL Performance Analyzer, the capability to capture a SQL workload into a SQL tuning set was backported. These functionalities were backported to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (version 10.2.0.4 or higher) to support customers who want to use Real Application Testing to test database upgrades from a previous version of Oracle Database to Oracle Database 11g.
    In the third phase, the Real Application Testing Addendum was released for release 11.1 to document the added functionality to read SQL trace files from Oracle Database 9i to construct a SQL tuning set that can be used as an input source for SQL Performance Analyzer in release 11.1.0.7.
    In the final phase, all available documentation for Real Application Testing contained in the above documents were consolidated into the Real Application Testing User's Guide for release 11.1. Going forward, this guide will contain all documentation of Real Application Testing and be updated for each release.

  • Required hardware for a oracle real application cluster

    hello i´m a newbie and have a question:

    thank a lot for help!

    Hi,
    HW sizing depends on lot of information like the Size of the Database, Average load on the Database, Number of DB users, what application is using the database... could you please let us know all these information and oracle license depends on the number of CPU you on the server. Kindly let us know the OS on which you want to run the oracle RAC.

  • Converting to Oracle Real Application Clusters from Single-Instance Oracle

    Is there any notes at metalink for
    Converting to Oracle Real Application Clusters from Single-Instance Oracle Databases
    We should have 10g DB on ASM to make it RAC?

    With Oracle Database 10g Release 2, $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rconfig tool can be used to convert Single instance database to RAC. This tool takes in a xml input file and convert the Single Instance database whose information is provided in the xml. You can run this tool in "verify only" mode prior to performing actual conversion. This is documented in the RAC admin book and a sample xml can be found $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/rconfig/sampleXMLs/ConvertToRAC.xml. Grid Control 10g Release 2 provides a easy to use wizard to perform this function.
