ASM Disk-groups / RAID?

Feb 25, 2011

We have a new implementation which will be using ASM with RAID. The data area needs to be 3TB, and the recovery area, to be used for archive logs and RMAN backups, needs to be 1TB.

The configuration i'm thinking about now is:

+DATA diskgroup: 5*600G disks, using RAID 1+0 (this will include control files)
+FRA diskgroup: 2*500G disks, using RAID 1
+LOG diskgroup: 2*1G disks, using RAID 1 (this is only for redo logs)

So here are my questions:
1. Am I right in supposing that we would get the best performance on the +FRA and +LOG diskgroups by not using RAID 1+0?
2. It has already been agreed to use RAID 1+0 for the +DATA diskgroup, but I can't see the added benefit of this. ASM will already stripe the data, so surely RAID 0 will just stripe it again (i.e double striping the data). Would it not be the better just to mirror the data at a hardware level?

Underlying Devices That ASM Disk Groups Depends On?

Jun 21, 2012

We have a big problem in the underlying devices that ASM disk groups depends on. We have SAN disks (EMC DMX) presented to us as /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, etc.These disks have actually multipath setup. For example, - /dev/emcpowera has two different paths as:

1./dev/sda
2./dev/sdp

We were using the direct path /dev/sda to format the disk (as fdisk /dev/sda), and then used oracleasm to create disks (oracleasm createdisk ASMDISKDATA0 /dev/sda1). Then, ASM disk groups were created with those lables (volumes), and then database was created using the ASM disk groups.

Now our platform folks are telling us that we should use the multipath /dev/emcpowera instead of direct path /dev/sda as the direct path is not guaranteed across reboot.

So the questions are:

1.Is there a way to re-link the disk group to asm disk to the multipath devices (/dev/emcpowera1 instead of /dev/sda1)?
2.Is this even an issue for ASM? If the /dev/sda fails after reboot, can Oracle ASM automatically discover the other path /dev/sdp to the physical EMC disk?

Adding ASM Disk With Header Status MEMBER To Existing Disk Group

Aug 26, 2010

We have a Production Oracle 10g R2 RAC on HP-UX v2 IA64 servers.We have Two Disk Groups one for Archive (ARC_DISK - 100 GB) and other for Database(DATA_DISK - 1 TB]. We wanted to add more space to the DATA_DISK disk group.Unix admin configured 200 GB from SAN and changed the ownership of the Disk to oracle and permissions to 775 on 1st Node.I opended DBCA from 1st Node and was able to see the disk in 'Show Candidate'.

I added this disk to the DATA_DISK disk group and clicked OK but got ORA- error with some message like some operations could not be performed. I exited DBCA.We realized that we had forgotten to change the ownerhip and permission from the 2nd Node.Unix admin changed the ownership of the Disk to oracle and permissions to 775 on the 2nd Node.

I opened DBCA again from 1st Node and selected the DATA_DISK disk group but could not find the Disk in 'Show Candiate' open. I clicked on 'Show All' and this disk was shown with Header_Status - MEMBER but not allocated to DATA_DISKGROUP. When I clicked the 'Show Member' option, this disk is not shown for DATA_DISK disk group. I exited DBCA at this point.As this is a critcal Production database I didnt proceed any further and exited DBCA.

Now I need to add this Disk to the DATA_DISK disk group but not sure which option to select. I got one reply from another forum to run DBCA select the DATA_DISK Disk Group and then click 'Show All' and select this Disk (which already has MEMBER as Header Status) and select Force Option and click OK to continue.

Server Administration :: Disk Group With Two Disk For Normal Redundancy

Jan 16, 2013

I Configured an ASM instance and a disk group with two disk for normal redundancy.

> Here .. each disk is 2gb

The disk group has two disks...

SQL> select group_number, name, type, total_mb, free_mb
2 from v$asm_diskgroup;

GROUP_NUMBER NAME TYPE TOTAL_MB FREE_MB
------------ ------------------------------ ------ ---------- ----------
1 DATA NORMAL 4000 3898

as the group has two way mirroring (Normal redundancy) How much data (2 GB or 4 GB) can i keep in the disk group? My conception is I can keep 2 GB data in the disk group... (as the disk group keeps every extent in another disk as mirror)

Feb 17, 2011

I have 2 servers both having windows server 2008 64 bit as operating system installed on both I need to install oracle clusterware 11g r1 on both servers with clustering on external storage. I have configured the network(private,public and virtual) for both servers and have started the installation.

In the installation of oracle I add both servers but then I reach to a point where they ask me for voting disk or ocr disk in the cluster configuration storage but no disk is present how can i create ocr disk or voting disk on windows server 2008? And the external storage should I buy a special type of storage that supports clustering to continue my work?

One Materialized Views In Two Refresh Groups

Sep 11, 2013

I have 5 MViews that I want to refresh in two occasions, every Sundays and at the 1st of the month. I created a Refresh Group for the weekly and that work fine. But when I tried to created the second Refresh Group for the monthly I get a "materialized view is already in a refresh group".

You can only have a materialized view in one refresh group? What options to I have to refresh it in different intervals?

Materialized Views Vs Refresh Groups?

Sep 29, 2010

We recently migrated a database from 9i to 10g (overdue we know!!) and discovered that dbms_mview.refresh default behavior was turned upside down - meaning that 10g didn't first truncate the MV to refresh it. We're trying to unwind a lot of legacy issues, but it also turns out that we also have 100 REFRESH GROUPs and 100 MATERIALIZED VIEWs. That means a 1 to 1 relationship between RGs vs MVs. There is one MV defined to each RG.

These are my questions:

1) Does a 1 to 1 relationship between RGs and MVs make sense to anybody? The original implementors are gone and we can't fathom the reason for this.

2) Is there any reason why I shouldn't convert these 100 groups to plain and simple 100 MVs? I don't want the delete/insert refresh behavior of dbms_refresh.refresh and I do want the truncate behavior of dbms_mview.refresh ATOMIC=FALSE for refreshing a standard MVIEW

SQL & PL/SQL :: Retrieving Related Records As Groups

Mar 12, 2008

I have a table of N records with: Name SeqNo ID Col4 ... ColX

where Name and ID are non-unique, and SeqNo is a monotonic non-consecutive sequence 0 .. N that is unique within ID..I'd like to generate the following 'groups': For each record where SeqNo = 0, sorted by Name, create the 'group where ID is the same, ordered by SeqNo irrespective of the

values of any of the other columns. For instance, if the table contained:

NameSeqNoIDCol4 ... ColX
RPL2975...
TLM0444...
AAB2801...
AZZ0801...
ABA3444...
KTT4975...
ABA1801...
YHG0975...
DEF1444...

I'd like to generate:

NameSeqNoIDCol4 ... ColX
AZZ0801...
ABA1801...
AAB2801...
TLM0444...
DEF1444...
ABA3444...
YHG0975...
RPL2975...
KTT4975...

I got my desired results by brute-forcing via four sub-queries:

Sub-query 1 - Generate the sorted Names with SeqNo = 0
Sub-query 2 - Expand above with the additional columns,
maintaining original order
Sub-query 3 - For each of the records from sub-query 2,
generate the 'dependents' having the same ID
and SeqNo != 0
Sub-query 4 - Expand above with the additional columns,
maintaining original order of sub-query 1
Main query - Create UNION of 2 and 4, sorting by original
order and SeqNo

if there were not a simpler approach - after all, this must be a fairly common issue when generating BOMs.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Groups With Multiple Columns And Links

Nov 29, 2010

the thread title was a bit confusing, couldn't come up with anything short to describe the question. What I am looking for is a query which will put records into groups based on matching values in one of two columns. So if two records have a matching value in column 1 or column 2 they are in the same group. See the example bellow and expected output for a "better" explanation:

--setup
CREATE TABLE foo
(foo_id NUMBER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
record_number NUMBER,
record_value VARCHAR2(1));

[Code]...

--expected output

group# foo_id record_number record_value
1 1 1 A
1 2 1 B
1 3 2 B
1 4 2 C
2 5 3 D
3 6 4 E
3 7 5 E

My initial thought is that is feels a little bit like the sequential seat problem but not quite close enough. I know it could be done iteratively with PL/SQL but I am thinking there must be a way to do it in SQL I am not seeing yet.

PL/SQL :: Oracle 10.2.4.0 - How To Divide Set Of Records Into Groups In SQL

Jun 11, 2012

I am using 10.2.4.0 of oracle. I am having one requirement, in which i have to divide the set of records into certain groups , so that they can be executed partly but not in one run.

So in the 'SELECT' clause itself i want to assigns particular value (may be 1 )to first 50000 records then another value(may be 2) to next 10000, like wise. And again the total count of records will also varry time to time , if the total count of record set is less than 10000 , then it should only assign '1' to all the records. i will set the group values (1,2,3...) as another column itself.

Server Administration :: About Oracle ReDo Log Groups

May 21, 2013

I've a situation where I've very less redo logs generated. Let us say 10MB. Which solution will be better ?

1. Create one redo log group about 12 MB in size.
2. Create two redo log groups about 5 MB each in size as recommended by Oracle.

Even though solution 1 is also appropriate for me because I've less redo generated than the redo log group size. My whole redo will fit in this and I can raise checkpoint forcefully after certain period of time let us say every 3 seconds.

In one of our DB I found scenario one is implemented. So I want to know pros and cons of both of these practices.

TimesTen In-Memory :: Manual Refresh Cache Groups From Oracle DB?

May 3, 2013

we want to truncate a oracle Table in the Oracle DB. After the truncate the fact table will be loaded again. After the new load in the fact table we want to tell the times ten db to refresh the cache table. The cache Table is a user owned read-only cache group with no autorefresh. We want to tell times ten in a PL/SQL Block from Oracle DB that starts the refresh from the cache group in times ten. The refresh should not be a autorefresh because the refresh should only start if the fact table will new loaded after the truncate.

RMAN Disk / Tape?

Apr 25, 2011

I just made the swich to have my RMAN backup directly to tape and here are the parameters I have set.

CODECONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO 'SBT_TAPE';
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE TO '%F';
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARALLELISM 4 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET;
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE TO 1; # default

[code]...

When I do an active clone I need to set my parameters back to the following in order to makeit work.

CODECONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION FOR DATABASE OFF; # default

[code]....

Instead of un-doing my RMAN TAPE settings, is there something I can do in my active clone script to tell it read/write from/to disk instead of tape. I tried allocatiing disk channels but was unable to get my script to work. The only way it worked was to back out all the tape settings and put everything back to disk.

CODErman catalog=rman/rman@prod target=sys/sys@prod << EOT
connect auxiliary sys/sys@dev
duplicate target database to dev from active database nofilenamecheck

I have also considered that there is some problem with the NFS rman backup but can be solved by using hard and noac while mounting. Now I wanted to know is, what parameters should be changed to direct the backup sets to the new location in NFS instead of the old disk ? Do I need another media manager as in tape?
