Performance - Oracle 11.2 on same host with Virtual OS

Hi there,
a colleague of mine raised some doubts on installing Oracle database 11.2 on the same host server where multiple Virtual Box guest instances are running.
He pointed that threads allocation and consequently performance could be unbalanced.
Database server is not for production but it must supply its services for about 20 enterprise applications, so I do not expect to serve thousands of requests but definitely complex queries.
Considering these points, does it make sense what he's said?
Where can I find more information about Oracle DB 11.2 threads allocation?
thanks in advance
The host server is a DELL with two sockets Intel® Xeon® E5520, 2.26Ghz, 8M Cache, 5.86 GT/s QPI, Turbo, HT, 1066MHz Max Memory

OS RedHat 5.3If I understand what you are saying, then as far as the OS is concerned, the oracle rdbms is just another application alongside a virtual machine (or several virtual machines) process. I can't see where there should be any inherent conflict between them, except of course all processes running on any computer are competing for finite hardware resources. Typically you'd want the database server to be dedicated to running the database.

  • Multiple vDCs same host with no physical DC?

    I have a physical server running 2k8 R2 with Hyper-V.  Unfortunately, for what its worth, it is not able to run 2k12.  It is the only physical server running.  I would like to create a virtual domain controller, however I have no other DCs,
    physical or virtual. It would be the only domain controller.  Is there any value in having 2 vDCs on that same host, or is it pointless since they are both running on the same host, therefore providing little actual redundancy?

    If you have only one domain controller, the problem with it being in an earlier hypervisor goes away. The issue with 2008R2 as a host is that it doesn't process the VM-Generation ID attribute. If a virtual domain controller is reverted to a snapshot, it
    could cause a
    USN rollback. But, if there's only one domain controller, Active Directory cannot become inconsistent because there are no replication partners. In that case, the major fears with this go away. You still shouldn't be performing snapshots with even one virtual
    DC, but the effects are no worse than restoring from backup. You'll be fine with 2k8r2 and a single DC until such time as you can refresh your hardware.

  • Clone DB same host with ASM

    Hello,
    I am cloning a database running in 11.2.0.3 version with ASM to a new database running in the same version with ASM in the same host.
    The OS version is Redhat Linux 5.5.
    The source database is SOURCE and the target to clone database is CLONE.
    The source database datafiles are in DG_SOURCE diskgroup and the clone database datafiles are in DB_CLONE diskgroup.
    After mounting the database source , I am now backing up the source database using this command:
    run {
    backup as copy database format '+DG_CLONE/CLONE/DATAFILE/%N_%f.dbf';
    }This will copy the datafiles to the DG_CLONE which will be the diskgroup of CLONE instance.
    I am thinking after that to :
    1- startup nomount the clone database with an init.ora modified of the source database.
    2- create the controlfile with CREATE CONTROLFILE command,
    3- mount the clone instance.
    4- run the following script with RMAN;
    catalog start with '+DG_CLONE/CLONE/DATAFILE/';
    restore database;
    switch datafile all; 
    recover database;
    alter database open resetlogs;I wonder if my steps are correct?
    Thanks,

    I do not think you would be able to restore & recover the backup of your SOURCE database to create the CLONE database on the same host using the method you have stated. You can go with the RMAN duplicate command or since you are on 11g, you can go with the RMAN "duplicate from active database" method.
    In your method, you would be restoring the backups of SOURCE on the same server where SOURCE exists and this backup would contain the DB NAME as SOURCE which already exists and is running and you cannot restore it on the same server.
    You can refer this http://aprakash.wordpress.com/2011/01/24/duplicate-database-using-from-active-database-clause-11gr2/ for duplicate database using "FROM ACTIVE DATABASE" clause
    For normal RMAN duplicate, you can refer this

  • 2012 R2 Hyper-V HOST with virtualized 2008 R2 SP1 RDSH - Remote FX Capable?

    This article goes over RemoteFX and RDSH for 2008 R2 SP1, but nothing is discussed in regards to 2012 R2 Hyper-V HOSTs for the virtualized RDSH server.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2011/03/25/q-amp-a-microsoft-remotefx-and-remote-desktop-session-host-servers.aspx
    My goal is to use a 2012 R2 Hyper-V HOST server to provide RemoteFX vGPU performance to a 2008 R2 SP1 RDSH server. Is this possible? If not, are there any solutions that can provide graphics performance benefits to an RDSH server? If so, are there limitations?
    What are the benefits?

    Hi,
    A Server 2008 R2 VM does not support vGPU (neither does 2012/2012 R2).  One possibility if the apps you want to improve are DirectX-based is to run RDSH on a physical server, with a GPU installed,
    and enable the Use hardware default graphics adapter for all Remote Desktop Services sessions group policy setting.
    Please thoroughly test with the intended applications, GPU, and expected concurrent number of sessions to see if this configuration benefits you.  It only potentially benefits DirectX applications, and only applies to full desktop connections,
    not RemoteApps.
    Additionally you may want to test Windows Server Technical Preview/Windows Technical Preview since it has enhanced vGPU capabilities for the VMs.  vGPU is supported for a single-user Windows Server RDSH VM.  Please see the document below (and
    its comments) for more information:

    For agent i'm using 'Local System' and for preferred credentials i'm using <Domain>\<Users>. This is working fine on all other hosts but on Cluster Node its failing.
    Oh yes, agent is UP.

  • Oracle on same server with other DB

    I'm trying to find a technical reason why it isn't good to have Oracle installed on the same server with SQL Server or some other DB Product. I've seen lots of people say, "Don't do it.", but I haven't seen a technical reason. If someone could point me to an FAQ or another source, I'd appreciate that as well.
    TIA
    VaAccess

    AFAIK, adpatch is not aware of how much memory a server has. The number of workers it recommends depends on a set formula - pl see
    How Does Adpatch Determine The Number Of Workers To Recommend? [ID 800024.1]     
    You are essentially wanting to a trade-off between performance and speed. You could specify 2 workers, but the upgrade will take an unacceptably long time. Allocating a large number of workers will affect performance on the other databases, as you have experienced. You will need to find a sweet spot somewhere in between that is acceptable to you. If you have additional hardware resources, one option is to move the non-EBS databases off this server. I do not think there is a magic bullet to solve your issues.

  • Oracle Portal 11.1.1.6 with OAM 11.1.1.5

    Hi All,
    I have the following customer requirement.
    Oracle Portal 11.1.1.6 which is deployed on WebLogic Server 10.3.6
    Oracle Access Manager 11.1.1.5.0
    Oracle Internet Directory 11.1.1.6.0
    The customer wants to have Single Sign On for the Oracle Portal Application. This is my understanding about the Architecture.
    Oracle HTTP Server (with WebLogic Proxy Plug-in) talks to Oracle Portal
    Oracle HTTP Server (the same above with WebGate) talks to Oracle Access Manager
    Oracle HTTP Server has Oracle Web Cache
    Oracle Access Manager talks to OID
    Oracle Portal talks to OID with OID Authenticator
    When I went through the Oracle Portal documents, they give steps for Oracle Portal which is deployed on Oracle Application Server but not with WebLogic.
    My questions
    1) Do I need to configure OID Authenticator at myrealm of WebLogic Domain (which hosts Oracle Portal) to connect to OID?
    2) Is there anything more I need to do to integrate Oracle Portal with OID (Meaning running pl/sql scripts or any)?
    3) Kindly advice me about the flow of Oracle HTTP Server, Oracle Web Cache, Oracle Web Gate to OAS and Oracle Portal?
    Thank you

  • Can smb and afp coexist on the same host?

    Greetings all!
    I've been using Macs and OSX for a year. And recently I bought another MBP so I am seriously considering Time Machine backups. I have a Linux home server running Ubuntu 12.04 and Samba and my previous MBP running Mountain Lion connects to it happily without any problem. But my trouble started when I tried to setup afp on the same box.
    I followed this post and this post and got the fake time capsule showing in Time Machine without any problem. But soon I found myself unable to connect to the old samba shares. The smb host now displays as a Time Capsule. If I click on that OSX will say 'failed to connect'.
    As I understand there are 2 pieces involved on the server side, avahi to broadcast the service info and netatalk to provide the service itself. It's a bit like nmbd and smbd in Samba. If this is true then it's somewhat understandable that OSX can not display the same host as 2 different types of services at the same time. So I stopped avahi-daemon and very soon the old Samba shares appeared again.
    I am able to connect to both services using command+k but I would rather have them running normally so that my wife will be able to use them without extra tech support. Can anyone tell me if what I said above is true and/or if there is a graceful way around this? If answer is no then I will have to create a virtual machine or nic alias just for time machine and I think it's quite a waste.
    Thanks!

    I don't quite understand why people buying non-Apple devices should not expect OSX to work with them
    Because Apple has no control over 3rd parties. They can do what they want. If Apple publishes a new authentication mechanism in 2002, the 3rd party doesn't have to implement it. That isn't Apple's fault. If they do get around to supporting it in 2009 and then some 4th party doesn't bother to use the 2009 code in 2011, Apple still can't do anything about that. If anyone else wants to advertise, and support, Time Machine compatibility, they are welcome to do that. They definitely have the advertising part down, the support, not so much.
    There is a time when apple only worked with apple but that aparently was not sustainable. And that's why now Apple is embracing smb
    Apple's goal is to choose the best solution for its customers. Sometimes that is a proprietary connection or protocol and sometimes it is something industry standard. In all cases, there has to be some cut off for testing and support. That is why Apple eventually stops supporting its own hardware and technologies at a certain point. That is also why Apple will support SMB as deployed by Microsoft but isn't going to waste much time on home-built Linux servers.
    (it's said even samba was used shortly on OSX, not quite sure) and allow users to install windows on macs. Even OSX itselt is based on FreeBSD and uses quite a lot of open source components.
    Apple uses a lot of open source software. Samba was one of those projects. Unfortunately, the people that made those products didn't want Apple using them so they changed the licensing to prohibit Apple (and pretty much only Apple) from using their source code. That is why some of the open source packages in OS X are stuck in a 2007 version. That is also why Apple abandonned Samba and wrote its own SMB implementation.
    OS X is not based on FreeBSD. It has a BSD-flavoured POSIX layer, but it is a distinct operating system at its core.
    IMHO there is no magic in throwing money at propiretary hardware/software or praying to Steve Jobs. If something is not working, it must be that there is a bug in the code or the design. And neither OSX nor Macs are built by God, which means they are bugged as other software/hardware.
    I'm confused. When did anyone say anything about praying to Steve Jobs or divine technology? You asked about using Linux as a Time Machine server. I suggested you avoid that if you value your data. I also asked why you would want to keep running Linux now that you have a Mac. A Mac can do anything Linux can do with a fraction of the effort.
    The answer is simple, Macs can not do what I want.
    Which is?
    Withe a standard mATX case I can have quite a few 3.5" drive bays while there is only one 2.5" in a Mac mini. And with Ubuntu/Debian, getting/updating the software or the system is quite easy, just one or a few lines of apt commands, not quite possible with OSX.
    That's certainly true. OS X updates itself without having to run any apt commands.
    If you must compile something from the source to get a Linux running then something must be seriously wrong.
    My thoughts exactly. But perhaps you didn't follow me entirely. Apt, yum, etc don't have everything one needs to setup something as fancy as, I don't know, a web server. While I did have to compile a number of things from source, I had to actually edit the source a couple of times as well.
    The best thing I love about Linux is openess. You can customize almost everything and change it whatever way you want. With Mac, for example the 2013 Retina MBP I just bought, it's not even possible to change the power button behavior, which is very annoying.
    Then why did you buy a Mac? That's no big secret. Some people like not have to configure everything just to get it running. I have other things to do than edit config files.
    Back to my original question. I think the problem is not quite with compatibility of Bonjor but rather whether OSX can show this or not. Imagine you have a smb share and afp share on the same host, with the same name, how would OSX display it? And which icon will OSX use to display the host? I can not think of the answer so if you know please tell me.
    OS X will just display it like it display any server. One of your links event has instructions on how to pick the icon you want to fake. If you are running both services then I am not sure which one it would try to connect with. Neither of your services are native, not matter how much they try to fake it. If you wanted a specific service you would have to manually use the correct protocol in Finder > Go > Connect to Server. However, bot of those links were posted before Mavericks. Obviously they don't work anymore. It's Linux. It's open. Right? So fix it and post it on your own blog. I do not know what modifications you would have to make to either Samba or Netatalk to make them work with Mavericks.
    If all you need is to allow your wife to connect to one specific protocol, then manually connect to that service, saving your password in the keychain, and create an alias by Command-option dragging the server to some other folder. Then, she can just double-click on the alias to connect to the network.
    Now, if you really want to be clever, you can setup an automount to that service instead. Then the server will be mounted and unmounted as needed.

  • 64-bit database and 32-bit companion on same host oracle home problem

    Hi.
    We have following situation in production.
    Installed database version is 10.02.04. 64-bit,host Windows 2008 x64, now we are trying to install 32-bit companion cd and this time we are trying not to loose/kill our 64-bit oracle home inventory.
    Last time 32-bit version was installed our 64-bit home vanished and attachHome script always returned error, it seems to me that 32-bit and 64-bit versions overwrite installation info to each other, only last install is visible.
    When I run setup for 32-bit companion I don't see anything in installed products(it's not listing 64-bit oracle homes). We had a lot of problems with this,patch failing, no way to install anything anymore for 64-bit version...
    So is it possible to install 32 and 64 bit homes on same host, can they coexist, and keep both homes(OUI homes info), are there any special steps or something?

    Well I looked at Inventory.xml file, after 32-bit version was installed entry for 64-bit install was gone.
    Although I can not confirm that 100 percent because 32-bit installation was not done by me, maybe other guy who did it manually delete it as I did with 32-bit version to return my 64-bit inventory.
    So my options are to backup 64-bit inventory, install 32-bit companion my 64-bit inventory will be overwritten, backup 32-bit, delete 32-bit, restore 64-bit inventory and I'll have active 64-bit inventory. Now I have inventory for 64-bit and I can restore 32-bit or 64-bit inventory when I need it.
    This woks by is there another way...somebody...

  • TDE Wallets & Multiple Databases on same Host

    The Oracle TDE Best Practices (doc ID 130696) states this:
    Multiple databases on the same host
    If there are multiple Oracle Databases installed on the same server, they
    must access their own individual TDE wallet. Sharing the same wallet between independent instances is not supported
    and can potentially lead to the loss of encrypted data.
    If the databases share the same ORACLE_HOME, they also share the same
    sqlnet.ora file in $TNS_ADMIN . In order to access their individual wallet, the
    DIRECTORY entry for the ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION
    needs to point each database to its own wallet location:
    DIRECTORY= /etc/ORACLE/WALLETS/$ORACLE_UNQNAME
    The names of the subdirectories under /etc/ORACLE/WALLETS/ reflect
    the ORACLE_UNQNAME names of the individual databases.
    If the databases do not share the same ORACLE_HOME, they will also have their individual sqlnet.ora
    files that have to point to the individual subdirectories.
    What is the correct sqlnet.ora syntax to do this?  I currently have what is below but it doesn't seem to be correct:
    ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION =
      (SOURCE = (METHOD = FILE)
      (METHOD_DATA =
      (DIRECTORY = /local/oracle/admin/wallet/DB#1)
      (DIRECTORY = /local/oracle/admin/wallet/DB#2)

    Hi,
    You can check this :Setting ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION For Wallets Of Multiple Instances Sharing The Same Oracle Home (Doc ID 1504783.1)
    i haven't done this for multiple database, but as per Doc you can use the syntex like
    ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION =
      (SOURCE = (METHOD = FILE)
      (METHOD_DATA =
      (DIRECTORY = /local/oracle/admin/wallet/$ORACLE_UNQNAME)
    Whenever you set the Environmnet with
    export $ORACLE_UNQNAME=DB#1 
    it will choose the file from respective directory like  /local/oracle/admin/wallet/DB#1

    How to rectify it? Please help me

    You do not change the dbname of the physical standby database. They always must have the same name as the primary.
    Here is a snippet from my standby initialization file for a 9i installation. Notice the parameter LOCK_NAME_SPACE that was replaced in 10g with DB_UNIQUE_NAME
    db_file_name_convert=('E:\PRIMA','E:\PHYST')
    db_name='PRIMA'
    instance_name='PHYST'
    service_names='PHYST'
    lock_name_space='PHYST'
    log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=E:\PHYST\ARCHIVE'
    log_archive_start=TRUE
    log_archive_format='%t_%s.arc'
    log_file_name_convert=('E:\PRIMA','E:\PHYST')Kind regards

  • I can't install Windows 7 key over KMS host with WS 2012 R2

    Hi
    I have a KMS Host with Windows Server 2012 R2. I don't have problems installing keys for Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Office 2013, Windows Server 2012 R2. However, when I tried install keys for Windows 7, Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 2008, I have the next message:
    C:\slmgr.vbs /ipk <Windows 7 key>
    Error: 0xC004F050 The Software Licensing Service reported that the product key is invalid
    I've installed the keys from the same source.

    For a KMShost with the OS=WS2012R2, you cannot, and, there is no need to, install any other Windows KMShost keys. The WS2012R2 KMShost key, by itself, will activate the KMShost OS, and will also enable the issuing of activations for ALL Windows KMSclients.
    Office KMS features are different, and do need to be installed for Office KMSclient activations.
    The error you are experiencing is expected, and is a result of your attempt to perform an unnecessary configuration step.
