SQL Anywhere Monitoring Tool

Hi, what is the difference between "Monitoring Tool (Development and testing)"
and "Monitoring Tool (Deployment)"? I cannot find it enywhere.
thanks

Hi Miroslav,
The SQL Anywhere Monitor is a stand-alone product that is separately licensed from SQL Anywhere. The version included with SQL Anywhere is the Development version, which is intended for you to try out the product and see if it useful for your purposes.
The full version has the following features, listed in the documentation: http://dcx.sap.com/index.html#sa160/en/dbadmin/da-server-monitoring-s-5157863.html
If you do find that the utility is useful, you should purchase a full license for your production deployments.

SQL Anywhere Migration Tool

Does anyone know of an expected time frame for Migrating from SQL Anywhere to 8i?

Hello
Seems like a bug in SQL Developer that it is not picking up the scale. Will notify the appropriate group for a fix. NUMBER(x,y) is a valid representation in Oracle. Can you check to see what the default mapping is in SQL Developer before the conversion process begins?. If it shows up as NUMBER(x) then change it to NUMBER(x,y).
In the meanwhile iyou can fix the DDL before generating the schema in Oracle.

Prakash

Need suggestion for monitoring tools

Hi experts,
i am in process for finding a best approach for new environment given to me for sql server monitoring purpose.
its sql server 2008 r2 x64 with 32 GB memory and 2008 R2 server OS.
its a small setup and have two production servers only and both two servers are on two node active/passive cluster steup.
i need to implement best monitoring approach in terms of only sql server (not for OS issues), with best monitoring real time reports, automated alerts for disk/log/space/job/server health/deadlock etc issues.
please suggest me any two tools which can be best to go with considering cost and effectiveness and with single licenece only for all servers. can have upto 6 servers including dev/qa and 20 instances on them.
please need urgent.

I really like SQL Monitor from http://www.red-gate.com/products/dba/sql-monitor/

Also, does anyone know how to determine the location (full path) of the unixODBC driver manager ?
Please assist if you can...thx.
Edited by: user601798 on Oct 15, 2012 3:37 PM

Let me start with the unixODBC driver:
There's no generic location as it depends which package you've used to install the UnixODBC driver manager or how you compiled it from scratch. I commonly prefer to compile it from scratch as this offers me to install it to any location I like.
If you're not sure where it is located, you could perform a search on your machine looking for libodbc.so. Then cross check it with "file <location>/libodbc.so" to see the lib is a 64bit library.
So let's assume in the /usr/lib64 you found the libodbc.so library, then the setting
HS_FDS_SHAREABLE_NAME=/usr/lib64/libodbc.so
is correct. Else you need to adopt the parameter.
Next step is to check out which unixODBC version is installed. That's commonly done by calling "odbcinst -j".
Looking now ta the gateway init file there's a parameter HS_NLS_NCHAR set to UTF-8. UnixODBC is commonly compiled with UCS2 support, so please change it to HS_NLS_NCHAR=UCS2
Could you also please post the content of the odbc.ini file "more /etc/odbc.ini"?
Thanks,
Klaus

How to db connect from SAP to SYBASE SQL anywhere 16 remotely

Hi All,
May i know can i connect to SYBASE SQL Anywhere16 from SAP running on kernel 7.42 via dbacockpit (dbco)?
I've followed note 1737415 - Sybase IQ: Enable remote/secondary connect to SAP Sybase IQ & 1532253 - SYB: Remote DB Monitoring for SAP Sybase ASE
but failed.
Where can i find the dbsl and its client for sybase sql anywhere? I only can find SAP ASE and SAP IQ on SMP. Is those compatible with SQL anywhere 16?
Thanks.
Nicholas

Hi Jason,
the error message is it complains minimun version for SAP IQ is 15.6, however our SQL anywhere is on version 16, above the support version as per note1737415 - Sybase IQ: Enable remote/secondary connect to SAP Sybase IQ
fyi, i'm using the latest sybase dbsl and SAPIQ 16 client.
Any idea or will it works to remotely connect SQL anywhere via dbacockpit?
Thanks,
Nicholas.

data for performance monitoring. please help me to find best tool
asad

Hi asad,
Microsoft SQL Server and the Microsoft Windows operating system provide utilities that allow us to view the current condition of the database and to track performance as conditions change. There are a variety of tools and techniques that
can be used to monitor Microsoft SQL Server Databases.
The following document provides some Performance Monitoring and Tuning Tools:

Sql statement monitor

i am looking for sql statement monitor, similar to mssql's sql profiler.
is there tool that allows the user to monitor all sql statements ran by a specific user or sql statements received by a certain schema?
statement tracer for oracle doesn't work. i dont know why.
in EM (10g), there is sessions > sql tab but it is not real time.
i tried toad but i cant easily install it in the client. any other ways of doing it?
any other solutions?
Edited by: jdm811 on Jul 19, 2011 12:59 AM

V$SESSION tells you about current sessions, whether they are active (STATUS), what they are executing (SQL_ID) and other metadata available about the session (MODULE, PROGRAM, MACHINE, TERMINAL, etc).
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/dynviews_2088.htm#REFRN30223
ASH - Active Session History - contains samples of active sessions - like most dictionary views, etc the exact columns depends on version.
As mentioned above, you need to be licensed for Diagnostic Pack for this.
V$ACTIVE_SESSION_HISTORY is a buffer of active sessions sampled every second.
The buffer is flushed to DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY but by default only 1 in 10 sessions is retained in the repository.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/autostat.htm#i35568
If you need more data and more detail than this then you should look at enabling AUDIT:

Server monitor tools to use on OS 10.8 for monitoring 10.5 server?

Hi,
Are there Apple server monitor tools that I can use on OS 10.8 to monitor my OS 10.5 server?
I used to have tools on my 10.6 machine, but now I upgraded to 10.8 and can't find the tools anywhere.
Please help.
Thanks.

i got a way to open the Server Monitor App on 10.8.4
take the version from Server Admin Tool 10.7.5
then open the app with ctrl-klick > watch package content > go to the folder MacOS
here is the main application drag & drop this on the terminal or symply doubleklick
now make an alias to your desktop
it really works :-) i don't know why apple this has discontinued
hope this help all xserve users
edit:
i don't check with a 10.5 server, but it works from a 10.8 to a 10.7.5 server

NLS in SQL Anywhere 16

I'm relatively new to SQL Anywhere, so my apologies in advance for any obvious questions.
I have a potential customer who is using an older version of SQL Anywhere, and wants to know about version 16 national language support (NLS). They specifically asked about Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese.
Referring to the product documentation here: http://dcx.sybase.com/index.html#sa160/en/dbadmin/language-locale-natlang.html
It appears that both traditional and simplified Chinese, along with Thai, are supported.
So, two questions:
Am I looking at the right place to understand the NLS in SQA?
Is there any way to support Vietnamese?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Regards, Derek

Hello Arcady,
They were previously using version 10 of the product. Just had a clarification from them - the question is around storing and working with Vietnamese text. They do not require the product documentation, admin tools, etc. to be in Vietnamese.
So your response above confirms that they would be able to have an application which stores and retrieves (including select queries, etc.) Vietnamese text in the SQL Anywhere product... whether it is via the primary database, Ultralite, MobiLink, etc.?
Thanks, just trying to make sure there's no limitations around what they want to do.
Cheers!

Oracle EPM 11.1.2.1 Monitoring tools

Gurus,
could you please let me know what are the available system monitoring or performance monitoring tools for oracle EPM 11.1.2.1 or in case licenses are involved what are the best key areas for manual procedures to monitor the system?
Many thanks !

Hello,
Monitoring is a broad term. There are many 3rd party tools available that can provide monitoring, it all depends on what exactly you're looking for.
Oracle has a document on setting up Oracle Enterprise Manager to monitor Hyperion Applications: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/sys9-oem-integration-1-129287.pdf. For performance monitoring, you can also look at this: https://blogs.oracle.com/pa/entry/epm_11_1_2_how3. This will basically connect to the JRockit JVM and look at the performance for the web application.
If you want to do more monitoring (services, servers, processor, CPU), you can look into Hyperic HQ: http://www.hyperic.com/. They have both an open source version and an enterprise version. I've used the open source version myself and it is pretty good and plays well with Windows. You can see many metrics, graphics and information via the web based application. You can also setup email alerts on certain activities (service stop, service start) and also monitor website availability. For being an open source software, I think it offers alot and it is very reliable.
Again, these are just a few suggestions. There are many tools out there that can accomplish what you're looking for.
Regards,
Luis

Issues connecting to a SQL Anywhere repo from the Designer

I have installed DS4.2 SP2 on a number of Suse 11.1 Linux VMs using all of the standard settings, and making use of the bundled SQL Anywhere database as my repo.
I am getting an error in the Designer when I try to connect to certain repositories in the Login screen, but the problem is not happening on all installations.
The error is an ODBC message:
ERROR: ODBC call <SQLDriverConnect> to connect database <DS_REPO> failed with error: <[Sybase][SQL Anywhere]Database server not found>. Use the ODBCDriverSelector (Windows) or DSConnectionManager,sh (UNIX) utility in LINK_DIR/bin to configure the correct version of the driver.....(BODI-1112172)
I have checked both the ODBCDriverSelector on the machine running the Designer and DSConnectionManager on the server, and the drivers are all correct for SQL Anywhere 12. I can also successfully connect to the database from the Windows Repository Manager - the only problem is with the Designer.
I have tried adding an ODBC entry in the System DSNs for the repo database, and again I can successfully test the connection - but this hasn't fixed my issue, and the Designer can connect (when it can connect) even if a DSN isn't defined.
I'd appreciate any thoughts or advice.

I have a solution - in the CMC, set the repo to use DNS. You need to first create an appropriate entry in the <install dir>/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/odbc.ini and then create an equivalent entry on your client ODBC settings.

Where can i check in the real time monitoring tool if there are active calls in progress?

Please suggest DB monitoring tool

Our DB have some performance issues, I need your suggestions to buy a DB monitoring tool to help us to resolve these problems.
If you can share your experiences on the tool, it will be the best.

Hi,
We don't have enough knowledge on DB.In that case, beware of tools that make recommendations that you cannot understand . . .
Some advanced monitoring tools can be cryptic for beginners.
Is OEM or Statspack suitable to a beginner? Beware, the OEM diagnostic pack and the OEM performance pack are really expensive, over $6,000 per seat:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/news_tuning_packs_price.htm
Plus, consider 3rd party tuining tools.
Historically, Oracle tools have had a bad reputation, and Oracle's Oracle Expert tool was widely criticized for making ridiculous tuning recommendations . .
Everybody has a monitoring tool to plug, I even have a few that I wrote myself.
There are a zilllion of them, but they all offer test drives, but try to find:
- A monitoring tool that makes recommendations in plain English
- A tool that is reasonably priced
- A tool from a well-know vendor with a good track record
Lastly, if you are not familiar with Oracle tuning, it may be better and cheaper to buy an Oracle health check.
A guru can find tuning problems in just a few hours, faster and more efficient that using a tuning tool.
Hope this helps . . .
