WSUS catalogue size, location and log file

Hi All,
Quick question, where is the catalogue stored in the WSUS server? I am trying to find the size of the latest update synchronization that the client use and the size in total of the catalogue, is this possible? As our clients caused an issue pulling a 35MB
catalogue file from the server, does this seem the correct size for a SCCM/WSUS delta update?
I had a look at WSUS related logs (change and software distribution)but couldn't find the right info, it was a long day so any help appreciated on this as I could simply have missed it in those log files, or a point in the right direction would be great,
thanks for your help
many thanks

Hi,
Have you install SCCM with WSUS? If yes, to get better help, please post your question on the SCCM forum.

Tmp file locations and Log file locations

I have been having a real headache too trying to get WebLogic to put all its
log files and temporary files in directories that I specify. It seems that
WebLogic has a mind of its own as files get created all over the place.
Trying to configure these really basic settings has proved extremely
awkward. Why is it such a nightmare to do?

OK, I changed the relative path for the log files.
1. I am still getting app-startip.log
app0000.tlog
in the root directory and not in the ./logs directory. Any other
settings?
2. I sill do not know how to redirect the tmp_ejbdomain.port directory.
Any suggestions?

Process Flow ignores name and location for Control- and Log-Files

Hi!
Our OWB Version is 10.1.0.3.0 - DB Version 9.2.0.7.0 - OWF Version 2.6.2
Clients and server are running on Windows. Database contains target schemas as well as OWB Design and Runtime, plus OWF repositories. The source files to load reside on the same server as the database.
I have for example a SQL*Loader Mapping MAP_TEXT which loads one flat file "text.dat" into a table stg_text.
The mapping MAP_TEXT is well configured and runs perfect. i.e. Control file "text.ctl" is generated to location LOC_CTL, flat file "text.dat" read from another location LOC_DATA, bad file "text.bad" is written to LOC_BAD and the log file "text.log" is placed into LOC_LOG. All locations are registered in runtime repository.
When I integrate this mapping into a WorkFlow Process PF_TEXT, then only LOC_DATA and LOC_BAD are used. After deploying PF_TEXT, I execute it and found out, that Control and Log file are placed into the directory <OWB_HOME>\owb\temp and got generic names <Mapping Name>.ctl and <Mapping Name>.log (in this case MAP_TEXT.ctl and MAP_TEXT.log).
How can I influence OWB to execute the Process Flow using the locations configured for the mapping placed inside?
Has anyone any helpfull idea?
Thx,
Johann.

I didn't expect to be the only one to encounter this misbehaviour of OWB.
Meanwhile I found out what the problem is and had to recognize that it is like it is!
There is no solution for it till Paris Release.

Do we need to format data and log files with 64k cluster size for sql server 2012?

Do we need to format data and log files with 64k cluster size for sql server 2012?
Does this best practice still applies to sql server 2012 & 2014?

Yes. The extent size of SQL Server data files, and the max log block size have not changed with the new versions, so the guidance should remain the same.

Change the Data and Log file locations in livecache

Hi
We have installed livecache in unix systems in the /sapdb mount directory where the installer have created sapdata and sapdblog directories. But the unix team has already created two mount direcotries as follows:
/sapdb/LC1/lvcdata and /sapdb/LC1/lvclog mount points.
While installing livecache we had selected this locations for creating the DATA and LOG volumes. Now they are asking to move the DATA and LOG volumes created in sapdata and saplog directories to these mount points. How to move the data and log file and make the database consistent. Is there any procedure to move the files to the mount point directories and change the pointers of livecahce to these locations.
regards
bala

Hi Lars
Thanks for the link. I will try it and let u know.
But this is livecache (even it uses MaxDB ) database which was created by
sapinst and morover is there any thing to be adjusted in SCM and as well as
any modification ot be done in db level.

How to increase the size of Redo log files?

Hi All,
I have 10g R2 RAC on RHEL. As of now, i have 3 redo log files of 50MB size. i have used redo log size advisor by setting fast_start_mttr_target=1800 to check the optimal size of the redologs, it is showing 400MB. Now, i want to increase the size of redo log files. how to increase it?
If we are supposed to do it on production, how to do?
I found the following in one of the article....
"The size of the redo log files can influence performance, because the behavior of the database writer and archiver processes depend on the redo log sizes. Generally, larger redo log files provide better performance, however it must balanced out with the expected recovery time.Undersized log files increase checkpoint activity and increase CPU usage."
I did not understand the the point however it must balanced out with the expected recovery time in the above given paragraph.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks,
Praveen.

You dont have to shutdown the database before dropping redo log group but make sure you have atleast two other redo log groups. Also note that you cannot drop active redo log group.
Here is nice link,
http://www.idevelopment.info/data/Oracle/DBA_tips/Database_Administration/DBA_34.shtml
And make sure you test this in test database first. Production should be touched only after you are really comfortable with this procedure.

How to design SQL server data file and log file growth

how to design SQL DB data file and log file growth- SQL server 2012
if my data file is having 10 GB sizze and log file is having 5 GB size
what should be the size in MB (not in %) of autogrowth. based on what we have to determine the ideal size of file auto growth.

It's very difficult to give a definitive answer on this. Best principal is to size your database correctly in advance so that you never have to autogrow, of course in reality that isn't always practical.
The setting you use is really dictated by the expected growth in your files. Given that the size is relatively small why not set it to 1gb on the datafile(s) and 512mb on the log file? The important thing is to monitor it on an on-going basis to see if that's
the appropriate amount.
One thing you should do is enable instant file initialization by granting the service account Perform Volume Maintenance tasks in group policy. This will allow the data files to grow quickly when required, details here:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175935%28v=sql.105%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
Also, it possible to query the default trace to find autogrowth events, if you wanted you could write an alert/sql job based on this
SELECT
[DatabaseName],
[FileName],
[SPID],
[Duration],
[StartTime],
[EndTime],
CASE [EventClass]
WHEN 92 THEN 'Data'
WHEN 93 THEN 'Log' END
FROM sys.fn_trace_gettable('c:\path\to\trace.trc', DEFAULT)
WHERE
EventClass IN (92,93)
hope that helps

Why size of archive log file increasing in merge clause

my database is running in archive log mode.
someone is running oracle merge statement. still it is running.
He will issue commit after the operation.
in that period redolog file increasing now.
my question is why size of archive log file increasing with redolog file.
i know that after commit archive log file should generate.(may be it is wrong).
please suggest........

i know that after commit archive log file should generate.(may be it is wrong). No this is not correct that after commit archive log will generate....You know merge statement causes the insert (if data not present already) or update if database is present.. Obviously these operation will generate lots of redo if the amount of data been processed is high.
If you feel that this operation is causing excessive of redo then root cause analysis should be done...
For that use Logminer (excellent tool to provide segment level breakdown of redo size). V$logmnr_contens has columns redo block and redo byte address associated with the current redo
change
There are some gudlines in order to reduce redos( which may vary in any environment)
1) check if there are unwanted indexes being used in tables which are refereed in merge. If yes then remove those could bring down the redo
2) Use global temporary tables to reduce redo (if there is a need to keep data only temporarily in a session)
3) Use nologging if possible (but see its implications)
Hope this helps

How often should a database archive its logs
Re: Redo log size increase and performance
Please read the above thread and great replies by HJR sir. I think if you wish to get concept knowledge, you should add in your notes.
"If the FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET parameter is set to limit the instance recovery time, Oracle automatically tries to checkpoint as frequently as necessary. Under this condition, the size of the log files should be large enough to avoid additional checkpointing due to under sized log files. The optimal size can be obtained by querying the OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE column from the V$INSTANCE_RECOVERY view. You can also obtain sizing advice on the Redo Log Groups page of Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control."

How to limit the size of a log file.

Hi,
I am developing an application that creates a log file with all actions that take place. My problem is that this log file grows a lot because the application acts as a server that is up 24 hours a day. For that reason, I wanted to limit the size of the log file by deleting de older lines, how can implement is?
Thanks.

One way is to periodically (say every week) create a new file to store the actions and then, when the space taken up by all the files is too large, delete the oldest one.
You can also have your application periodically (say the first time you write to the file on any calendar day) check the size of the file and, when it gets too big, copy all of the actions in the file after a given time (presumably there is an associated timestamp with each action) to a new file. Then delete the old file.

Change location of log file from pkg, due to logrotate problem?

Hello I am now the maintainer of the bacula packages in aur. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=4510
The package ships with a log rotate file which points to /usr/var/bacula/working/log as the log file. However, log rotate gives
error: bacula:14 olddir /var/log/archive and log file /usr/var/bacula/working/log are on different devices
error: found error in file bacula, skipping
invalid password file entry
delete line ''? No
invalid password file entry
delete line ''? No
pwck: no changes
The solution to this is to change the log path to /var/log/bacula. My question is if I should leave the log path as is and have the user change it, or should I patch both the config file and syslog file to contain /var/log/bacula?
Thanks,
~pyther

Shell Script to grep Job File name and Log File name from crontab -l

Hello,
I am new to shell scripting. I need to write a shell script where i can grep the name of file ie. .sh file and log file from crontab -l.
#51 18 * * * /home/oracle/refresh/refresh_ug634.sh > /home/oracle/refresh/refresh_ug634.sh.log 2>&1
#40 17 * * * /home/oracle/refresh/refresh_ux634.sh > /home/oracle/refresh/refresh_ux634.sh.log 2>&1
In crontab -l, there are many jobs, i need to grep job name like 'refresh_ug634.sh' and corresponding log name like 'refresh_ug634.sh.log '.
I am thinking of making a universal script that can grep job name, log name and hostname for one server.
Then, suppose i modify the refresh_ug634.sh script and call that universal script and echo those values when the script gets executed.
Please can anyone help.
All i need to do is have footer in all the scripts running in crontab in one server.
job file name
log file name
hostname
Please suggest if any better solution. Thanks.
