Passive RAC instance LMON is running out of page file quota

I have quota watching tool that's showing lmon is running out of page file quota. What should I do to prevent database crash? ORACLE 9i RAC (active-passive) on openVMS.
Thanks in advance

Ah, VMS... long time no see. :)
Since it has been ages since I touched Oracle on VMS, I really can't give you any config guidelines, other than the ones given in the Install guide. Did you follow pre-reqs and made sure you are on or above recommended minimum values?
What's your current paging file quota limit? (and what does show process tell?)

Rac Instance Crashes

Dear all,

Thanks for reply,
My redo logs size is default 50mb.There is currently no load on the system since we are not using this environment for time being.The log switches are averaged to be 8 per day.I think Increasing the size of redo will further cause the problems since the archiver may again hold lock for more time.
Since there is no dedicated connection between the nodes and storage ,So increasing the hardware and network configuration is only solution to this? Or I am still missing something...
As far as configuration is considered i cannot add more resources to this environment.How can I solve this issue?

Running out of memory building csv file

I'm attempting to write a script that does a query on my
database. It will generally be working with about 10,000 - 15,000
records. It then checks to see if a certain file exists. If it
does, it will add the record to an array. When its done looping
over all the records, it takes the array that was created and
outputs a csv file (usually with about 5,000 - 10,000 lines).
But... before that ever happens, it runs out of memory. What can I
do to make it not run out of memory?

Sounds pretty inefficient to me. Is there no way you can
modify the query so that it only selects the records for which the
file exists?

How does RAC determine which instance number to run on which node

Good afternoon
I am trying to script a process and I need to identify how RAC decides which node runs which instance. Is it the first one of the pair added to the cluster that runs node 1 or is there some other piece of information that I need to work this out
This is on Redhat Linux with 10.2.0.3 for CRS, ASM and databases
Cheers
Peter

Before "you" start an instance you set env variable ORACLE_SID. This identifies an instance. When you go into sqlplus and issue STARTUP, Oracle starts the instance named by the sid. Thus the instance running on the server is controlled by you. This changes as noted below.
If you were using a non-Oracle tool to start instances, such as Veritas, then you would see it start the instance you coded into the tool. It would not randomly pick an instance. It looks in the Veritas config file and sees that you always want instance 1 on this node and instance 2 on that node.
That said, you can make Oracle more random or "grid" like. 10g RAC done Oracle's way likes to bounce around between primary and secondary nodes. To see which instances are running on a node you can "ps -ef | grep pmon". Alternatively, use sqlplus to look in the database: view gv$instance gives you each instance name paired with the name of the host it is currently running on. There is one line of output per instance currently running.

Oracle 10g RAC implementation running out of space

I have an Oracle RAC implementation setup on a Sun Storagetek 6140 for storage. I have allocated 100gb of space to Oracle but am constantly running out of space during operations. I know that i can allocate additional disk space using Common Array Manager for the Storagetek. How do i get ASM to recognize the fact that there is additional space available to it?

Hi buddy,
How do i get ASM to recognize the fact that there is additional space available to it?You have two options:
1- The first one is create a new LUN, configure it at the OS level and add the disk to disk group.
alter diskgroup add disk '<DISK_DEVICE_PATH>';
2- The second one is increasing the LUN size (if possible, of course) and resize the disk.
alter diskgroup <DISK_GROUP_NAME> resize disk '<DISK_NAME>' <NEW_SIZE>;
Hope it helps,
Cerreia

Rconfig: converting a single instance to RAC instance

Hi,
I am trying to use the "rconfig" utility to convert a single instance to a RAC instance in an existing RAC cluster.
I have modified the .xml file, and am trying to run the conversion from the 1st node in the 2 node cluster (where the single instance resides).
The only error message i seem to be getting is below:
<Response>
<Result code="1" >
Operation Failed
</Result>
<ErrorDetails>
ORCL_DATA_ORCLCLN The specified diskgroup is not mounted.
</ErrorDetails>
</Response>
</Convert>
</ConvertToRAC></RConfig>
Now I dont really understand why I would be getting that message as the instance is up and running and ASM disk group is mounted on node1 at the time i run the rconfig command, though its not clear to me if I also need to somehow mount the ASM disk group on the second node prior to running the rconfig command??
node1:
bash-3.00$ asmcmd -p
ASMCMD [+] > lsdg
State Type Rebal Unbal Sector Block AU Total_MB Free_MB Req_mir_free_MB Usable_file_MB Offline_disks Name
MOUNTED EXTERN N N 512 4096 1048576 10181 7442 0 7442 0 ORCL_DATA_ORCLCLN/
node2:
ASMCMD [+] > lsdg
State Type Rebal Unbal Sector Block AU Total_MB Free_MB Req_mir_free_MB Usable_file_MB Offline_disks Name
I have attached the output of the alert log during the rconfig conversion of the target database, but it all looks pretty standard to me (keep in mind i am an oracle novice!).

Ok,
So I managed to get the disk group mounted on the second node, and re-ran the rconfig process.
I got a little further, but encountered another error which is displayed below:
-bash-3.00$ rconfig racconv.xml

I am not using a shared oracle home, each node in the cluster has its own oracle installation residing on local disk. Is a shared oracle home a pre-requisite for usin rconfig?

How to determine which RAC-instance the appl. is logged onto?

Dear all,
I need to have my application server determine which RAC-
instance is currently active (logged onto). I have a
tnsnames.ora file with a primary-, and secondary RAC-
instance configured, and Failover/Failback between the
instances work fine. However, I would be interested in
determining which instance I am curently using.
Does the Oracle Net Protocol have support for letting me
"read" this out, or...?
Thanks.
Regards, Eldor R.

Thank you for the prompt reply.
Is there, in the Oracle Net Protocol, available
function(s) for reading out this information
directly without "parsing" the trace file?
I would like to read out this information from my
application run-time.
Thanks.

RAC instance won't start: ORA-00443: background process "VKRM" did not star

I've logged a SR with Oracle, but while waiting for response from them...I'm stumped I can't find more out here about this article.
On Oracle knowledgebase...any search for VKRM, gives about the same 3 articles relating to RDA (Remote Diagnostic Assistant).
Not sure what went on here.
I have a 5 node RAC cluster. All other instances seem to be running just fine.
On one instance...some applications were getting an error like:
ORA-01033: ORACLE initialization or shutdown in progress
I looked in GRID...and it indicated that only two of the 5 nodes had this instance running...which was strange in that with srvctl, it showed ll 5 up and running:
[oracle@server2 bin]$ ./srvctl status database -d INSTANCE
Instance INSTANCE1 is running on node server1
Instance INSTANCE2 is running on node server2
Instance INSTANCE3 is running on node server3
Instance INSTNANCE4 is running on node server4
Instance INSTANCE5 is running on node server5
Anyway, thought I'd poke around. I started with trying to get srvctl to stop instance #2...in GRID it seemed that instance 2,4 and 5 weren't working.
srvctl stop instance -D INSTANCE -i INSTANCE2
This just hung...
I thought I'd cycle all the nodes...so, did a ctl-c out of that one, and did:
[oracle@server2 bin]$ ./srvctl stop database -d INSTANCE -o abort
PRCD-1124 : Failed to stop database INSTANCE and its services

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Ok..have been on phone with Oracle support, and have them stumped so far.
I've checked..other instances are running (except one other that failed to cleanly shut down with srvctl and same error messages).
I've check...ASM is running on all 5 nodes. I've used crsctl to check CRS on all nodes..clustering seems ok.
Memory while somewhat high...should have enough room...the system has never complained before, and this has been up on this config for over a year.
I was able on node one...to fire up the first nodes instance using the pfile there...it came up. I started it restrict..and promptly ran a datapump export, and then shut back down.
While Oracle support is going through logs and trace files I sent...I've got another 11Gr2 environment (3 node RAC) I've been using as a test environment...and am recreated the instance there temporarily to allow my developers to test and get past the upcoming deadline.
But, I'm still puzzled as to the solution on the main cluster. This seem to be normal, except these two instances....
any ideas on where and what to look for?

ASM is online, listener is Online. Instance down and from EM I see that Agent connection to Instance failed due to error ORA-12505.
Any hint please?
Thanks
Stefano

We need to find out to which listener agent is attempting to connect. You can check the logs under $AGENT_HOME/sysman/log..you will should see the connect description in the log files, which should give you some kind of pointers.
Thanks

How can I avoid running out of memory when creating components dynamically

Hello everyone,
Recently, I am planning to design a web application. It will be used by all middle school teachers in a region to make examination papers and it must contain the following main functions.
1)Generate test questions dynamically. For instance, a teacher who logs on the web application will only see a select one menu and a Next Quiz button. The former is used for determining the number of options for the current multiple/single choice question. The later is dedicated to creating appropriate input text elements according to the selected option number. That is to say, if the teacher selects 4 in the menu and presses the Next Quiz button, 5 input text form elements will appear. The first one is for the question to be asked such as "1.What is the biggest planet in the solar system?", the others are optional answers like a)Uranus. b) Saturn. c)Jupiter. d)Earch. Each answer stands for an input text elements. When the teacher fills in the fourth answer, another select one menu and Next Quiz button will emerge on the fly just under this answer, allowing the teacher to make the second question. The same thing repeats for the following questions.
2)Undo and Redo. Whenever a teacher wants to roll back or redo what he has done, just press the Undo or[i] Redo button. In the previous example, if the teacher selects the third answer and presses the Delete button to drop this answer, it will delete both the literal string content[i] and the input text element, changing the answer d to c automatically. After that, he decides to get back the original answer c, Jupiter, he can just click the Undo button as if he hadn�ft made the deleting operation.
3)Save the unfinished working in the client side. If a teacher has done half of his work, he can choose to press the Save button to store what he has done in his computer. The reason for doing so is simply to alleviate the burden of the server. Although all finished test papers must be saved in a database on the server, sometimes the unfinished papers could be dropped forever or could form the ultimate testing papers after several months. So if these papers keep in the server, it will waste the server computer�fs room. Next time the teacher can press the Restore button on the page to get the previously stored part of the test paper from his own computer and continue to finish the whole paper.
4)Allow at least 1,000 teachers to make test papers at the same time. The maximum question number per examination paper is 60.
Here are my two rough solutions,
A.Using JSF.
B.Using JavaScript and plain JSP[b] without JSF.
The comparison of the two solutions:
1)Both schemas can implement the first and the second requirements. In JSF page I could add a standard panelGird tag and use its binding attribute. In the backing bean, the method specified by the binding attribute is responsible for generating HtmlInput objects and adding them to the HtmlPanelGird object on the fly. Every HtmlInput object is corresponding to a question subject or an optional answer. The method is called by an actionListener, which is registered in the Next Quiz commandButton, triggering by the clicking on this button in the client side. Using JSF can also be prone to managing the HtmlInput objects, e.g. panelGird.getChildren().add(HtmlInput) and panelGird.getChildren().remove(HtmlInput) respond to the undoing operation of deleting an optional answer and the redoing operation of the deleting action respectively. I know JavaScript can also achieve these goals. It could be more complex since I don�ft know well about JavaScript.
2)I can not find a way to meet the third demand right now. I am eager to know your suggestion.
3)Using JSF, I think, can�ft allow 1,000 teachers to do their own papers at the same time. Because in this scenario, suppose each questionnaire having 60 questions and 4 answers per question, there will be approximately 300,000 HtmlInput objects (1,000X60X(4+1)) creating on the server side. The server must run out of memory undoubtedly. To make things better, we can use a custom component which can be rendered as a whole question including its all optional answers. That is to say, a new custom component on the server side stands for a whole question on the client side. Even so, about 60,000(1,000X60) this type of custom components will be created progressively and dynamically, plus other UISelectOne and UICommand objects, it also can�ft afford for most servers. Do I have to use JavaScript to avoid occupying the server's memory in this way? If so, I have to go back and use JavaScript and plain JSP without JSF.
Thank you in advance!
Best Regards, Ailsa

Thank you for your quick response, BalusC. I really appreciate your answer.
Yes, you are right. If I manually code the same amount of those components in the JSF pages instead of generating them dynamically, the server will still run out of memory. That is to say, JSF pages might not accommodate a great deal of concurrent visiting. If I upgrade the server to just allow 1,000 teachers making their own test papers at the same time, but when over 2,000 students take the same questionnaire simultaneously, the server will need another upgrading. So I have to do what you have told me, using JS+DOM instead of upgrading the server endlessly.

How to deal with the extremely big *.ost files in a Terminal Server environment which is running out of space

Hi,
Our Terminal Server is running out of hard disk space, and the major files which occupy most of the space are *.ost files of the Outook, which come form the users which use the Terminal Server all the time through remote desktop. The Outlook is installed
on the Terminal Server and various users can use it.
What would be a solution in this case. Is there a way to limit the size of the *.ost files? I read in forums that having the Outlook 2010 set up in Cached Exchange Mode isn't the best practice for an environment where the hdd space is a major constraint.
What do you suggest?
Thanks,

Is the Exchange server local or remote? If it's local then it might be worth considering disabling cached mode, since the traffic will be going over the local network and therefore having the data cached becomes much less useful. If it's a remote exchange
server then realistically turning off cached mode would likely make it unusable.
If Exchange is remote then other than increasing the available storage, another option might be to upgrade your Outlook / Office installation to 2013. In Outlook 2013 you can configure how much of the users mailbox is cached in terms of time, so for instance
you could set it to only cache the last 6 months worth of mail, and then all recent messages would continue to be quick to view, but older messages that are less likely to be accessed frequently would have to be downloaded from Exchange each time since they
would no longer be cached.

Why is Up Next running out of music in iTunes 11?

I'm running iTunes 11.01 and it thankfully has the option to skip by album added back in. However, I have iTunes set to shuffle by album and when skipping to the next album I frequently run out of music to skip to.
For instance, I'll begin playing an album and can maybe skip 3 or 4 albums in a row (sometimes less, sometimes more) before whatever is in the Up Next list simply runs out. It doesn't update with anything new and the playback just stops either as I skip the last album or when it reaches the last track. I need to switch to another library like Movies and then jump back to Music in order for iTunes to select another random album when I click play.
Is there any way to turn off Up Next so that iTunes will simply play a continuous stream of random albums or allow me to skip through as many random albums as I like?

Wow. Thanks for the quick reply! :D

Is there any data about each opening of the cursors that get saved in the PGA during the session? Is it "bad" to open and close the cursors too often for example? Should you open a cursor and let it be open for the whole transfer?
I'm not a programmer so I don't really know.

Oracle 9i running out of memory

Folks !
I have a simple 3 table schema with a few thousand entries each. After dedicating gigabytes of hard disk space and 50% of my 1+ GB memory, I do a few simple Oracle Text "contains" searches (see below) on these tables and oracle seems to grow some 25 MB after each query (which typically return less than a dozen rows each) till it eventually runs out of memory and I have to reboot the system (Sun Solaris).
This is on Solaris 9/Sparc with Oracle 9.2 . My query is simple right outer join. I think the memory growth is related to Oracle Text index/caching since memory utilization seems pretty stable with simple like '%xx%' queries.
"top" shows a dozen or so processes each with about 400MB RSS/SIZE. It has been a while since I did Oracle DBA work but I am nothing special here. Databse has all the default settings that you get when you create an Oracle database.
I have played with SGA sizes and no matter how large or small the size of SGA/PGA, Oracle runs out of memory and crashes the system. Pretty stupid to an Enterprise databas to die like that.
Any clue on how to arrest the fatal growth of memory for Oracle 9i r2?
thanks a lot.
-Sanjay
PS: The query is:
SELECT substr(sdn_name,1,32) as name, substr(alt_name,1,32) as alt_name, sdn.ent_num, alt_num, score(1), score(2)
FROM sdn, alt
where sdn.ent_num = alt.ent_num(+)
and (contains(sdn_name,'$BIN, $LADEN',1) > 0 or
contains(alt_name,'$BIN, $LADEN',2) > 0)
order by ent_num, score(1), score(2) desc;
There are following two indexes on the two tables:
create index sdn_name on sdn(sdn_name) indextype is ctxsys.context;
create index alt_name on alt(alt_name) indextype is ctxsys.context;

I am already using MTS.
Atached is the init.ora file below.
may be I should repost this article with subject "memory leak in Oracle" to catch developer attention. I posted this a few weeks back in Oracle Text groiup and no response there either.
Thanks for you help.

Hi Mark,
Thank u for quick ur reply.
Doc #396057.1 (SuSE 10.2 OS issue) --> This note says "The archiver is getting stuck with ORA-19502 and ORA-27061", whereas in my case I'm not getting any ORA- errors in alert log nor anywhere but only getting these warnings in dbwr trace files that is also intermittently.
I have consulted my system team in regards to disk I/O they said we are using very high end storage and there are no errors or warnings in the OS system logs.
# 415872.1 --> this note says "HUNG DATABASE INSTANCE IF LINUX KERNEL MISS AIO REQUEST". This is not the situation in our case.
#6687381.8 --> says versions confirmed as being affected are 10.2.0.3 and 10.2.0.4
I'm unable to find anything which points to my situation, pls help.

Oracle server running out of space

We have a linux(debian)server which has Oracle10g in it and it is running out of space now. So we decided to add some more disk space(adding a new hard drive in the same server). But if we want to add more data files how can I tell the DB to use the added disk space. Since all the data files are existing in /home/oracle/oradata/orcl and their tablespace (USERS) are in the old disk,is it possible to tell the DB to use the added disk.
Please let me know if that can be done and how.
Thanks in advance.
