How To Know Database Shutdown Without Monitoring
Nov 23, 2010The Database is Shutdown, no user is complaining about it and also you are not monitoring it through alert log file, then how will you, as a DBA, come to know about it?

View 2 Repliesi install oracle 10g on linux on perform the following step but my database is not auto start with the machine
Automatic startup and shutdown oracle on linux Oracle database server provides two scripts to configure automatic database startup and shutdown process.
The scripts are,
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut
Now let's look at unix level script. When a unix machine boots it runs scripts beginning with Snnname in /etc/rc3.d.
-Here the number nn indicates the order in which these scripts will be run. The name just indicates the function of the script.
In the same way shutdown scripts are named as Knnname which are run from /etc/rc0.d.
If we want that Oracle is the last program that is automatically started, and it is the first to be shutdown then we will name the startup and shutdown scripts on OS like /etc/rc3.d/S99oracle and /etc/rc0.d/K01oracle respectively.
The database script dbstart and dbora will be called from OS script /etc/rc3.d/S99oracle and /etc/rc0.d/K01oracle respectively.
Note that dbstart and dbshut take each SID, in turn, from the /etc/oratab file and startup or shutdown the database.
Automate Startup/Shutdown of Oracle Database on Linux
Step 01: Be sure that oratab file is correct and complete.
Check for oratab file either in /etc/oratab or in /var/opt/oracle/oratab.
Database entries in the oratab file have the following format:
$ORACLE_SID:$ORACLE_HOME:Y
Here Y indicates that the database can be started up and shutdown using dbstart/dbshut script.
If in my database there is two database named arju and arjudup then my oratab file will contain the entry like,
arju:/var/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:Y
arjudup:/var/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:Y
where /var/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 is the $ORACLE_HOME of my database.
Step 02: Create a script to call dbstart and dbshut. In this example I will create one script that will do both startup and shutdown operation. I will name this script as dbora and will be placed in '/etc/init.d'.
a) Login as root.
b) Change directories to /etc/init.d
c) Create a file called dbora and chmod it to 750.
# touch dbora
# chmod 750 dbora
d)Edit the dbora file and make the contents of it like below.

Whats is the best Tool for monitoring ORACLE DBs ?
I've heard about Toad, Spotlight, and of course The EM from Oracle..but i know there some other tools that i maybe don't know.
I'd like to start monitoring the customer's database. I need a tool to monitor database's performances and I also need to run day by day a series of queries that produce control reports.
I'd like the tool alerts me by email if something goes wrong.
give a script to find how much my db buffe cache and redo log buffer cache is used and how much is free.

I am monitoring out PROD database using EMCA database control.
Under "Performance" tab I check the AVERAGE ACTIVE SESSION and I see spikes of "CPU concurrency". (figure emca1)
figure: emca1>

I want to investigate what causes this "spike" in cpu so I drill it down further:
figure: emca2>
[URL]........
Then figure drill down further:
figure: emca3>

But I can not understand what causes the spike thing.
which tools are available for monitoring load of the database?
View 4 Replies View RelatedWe are having a problem trying to automate our 11g database startup on a Linux Platform (Redhat). This is the procedure we followed.
1. Logged in as the root user.
2. Edited the oratab file for the platform.
vi /etc/oratab
db:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1:Y
3. Create a file called dbora in /etc/init.d directory
4. Entered the following in dbora:
#! /bin/sh -x
#
# Change the value of ORACLE_HOME to specify the correct Oracle home
# directory for your installation.
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
[Code] .....
4. Changed permissions of dbora
chgrp dba dbora
chmod 750 dbora
5. Created symbolic links to the dbora script in the appropriate run-level script directories:
# ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K01dbora
# ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S99dbora
# ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S99dbora
Have I covered everything needed? At system restart the listener and database fail to startup as expected.
Any example of database startup event and database shutdown event?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI issued a SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE command on my database and for over 2 hours and got no response. I did this because I wanted to restart the database due to many hanging sessions which had led to high CPU usage on the server by oracle process.
Oracle Service<dbname> instance using the Windows Services screen which failed with an error 1053 message. At the same time I got an ORA-01013 message saying user requested cancel of operation. See below:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
ORA-01013: user requested cancel of current operation

ORA-01089: immediate shutdown in progress - no operations are permitted
SQL> SHUTDOWN ABORT

ORA-01041: internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist
What I want to know is how do I proceed? Also how do I check to see the status of the Shutdown operation?
We have 2 Unix SunOS server, named as SUNOS01 and SUNOS02, there is some space need to add in SUNOS02 and for that I have to bring Database down on SUNOS02. When I checked I found that the DB is pointing to SUNOS01, i.e. there is no DB on SUNOS02, So, Do I required to shutdown the DB on SUNOS01 or it is not required to do anything from Database side. I mean to say should I ask Unix team to bring down the unix server and add the space.Also, if DB shutdown is not required then what I have to do afetr they have added space and bring the server up from DB side.

I have to apply monitoring template on my databases. Databases are already added and configured into OEM. They are visible under Databases tab and also under Groups where I have added them.
But when I try applying monitoring template and look for database in search window, it doesn't appear there.
i mean can i write a trigger to prevent shutdown in certain time.
create or replace trigger trig1 before shutdown on database begin if to_char(sysdate,'hh24') <16 then 'what is the right thing to do here?'
I have configured data Guard on oracle 11gR2. It is working fine. The only issue i am facing is that when i am stopping the database on the primary server, it is taking a long long time to down the database.
Is it normal?
Furthermore, regarding backup i used veritas Netbackup to perform hotbackup. Can i still used the same principle.
I was monitoring a database job to collect statistics, it was scheduled using DBMS_JOBS..I found that it was running during business hours so i got the session ID of the job using;
select sid from dba_jobs_running where job=11;
I then i killed the job using;
select serial# from v$session where sid =232;
alter system kill session '232, 10852';
select sid from dba_jobs_running where job=11;
no rows selected...After some time i again fired the same command
select sid from dba_jobs_running where job=11;
SID
----------
232
and found that the same job is again running..This behavior was repeated again N again. i have attached the spool file for the same...
what could be the reason that the job is starting all over again even after killing the session and what should be done to stop it..I understand that once the database shuts down and if the job is still running then it will restart once the database is up..In this case, Should i remove the job and re submit it again..

Find an appropriate script to automate Oracle DBs in one server? This db server have 6 instances. We always done the starting up and shutting down manually, although we have a reference script that does this but in Oracle v7.3.4. We do want to include the automatic start/stop of dbconsole for accessing it via OEM.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've got a pl/sql procedure that i would like to monitor its progress. Its been running for quite a few hours now and i dont really know if it is stuck in a loop or if it is just taking too long read/execute queries. Is there a way to find out what is the status of the procedure? or what it is currently doing?
I looked at views like v$sessions or v$session_longops but they dont actually tell me what it is currently doing. All of them just point to the call to the pl/sql procedure. Also, is it possible to look at the physical files on the filesystem to know if there is actually any processing going on and files are being written to? Is this possible or a files written to only after a commit?
11.2.0.1Aix 6.1 5L (quadcore, 16GRam) I am still confused how to take full advantage of these monitoring tools. Actually the our database performance is currently satisfactory, except for occasional few minutes spikes of CPU highs > 80 .I just want to catch the culprit process/program responsible for this spikes. Is it wise to run ASH, AWR, ADDM with an input from time 1AM to 1AM next day? What I mean is I will analyze a 1-day period, so that I can catch the program/process that has the higest cpu/memory usage for the day.
View 24 Replies View RelatedI'm running Oracle EE 11.2.0.2 and when I look in OEM SQL Monitoring, it shows nearly every sql statement running with a degree of parallelism of *2*.
I've checked dba_tables and the 'degree' for all tables is only 1. I look at the actual sql statement, and there are no hints to tell it to use parallelism. So why and how is the database using parallelism?
I do see that parallel_threads_per_cpu is set to 2, but this is default for our Solaris 10 operating system.
REF: (for 11.2)
===========
PARALLEL_THREADS_PER_CPU specifies the default degree of parallelism for the instance and determines the parallel adaptive and load balancing algorithms. The parameter describes the number of parallel execution processes or threads that a CPU can handle during parallel execution.
The default is platform-dependent and is adequate in most cases. You should decrease the value of this parameter if the machine appears to be overloaded when a representative parallel query is executed. You should increase the value if the system is I/O bound.
how to tell if my database is actually IO bound or not?
get all the unused index in the system , if i put this query in batch job and execute it every night upto one months and store its data in a table and after one months i can get all the used indexes and left would be our unused indexes.
select
distinct p.object_name c1
from
dba_hist_sql_plan p,
dba_hist_sqlstat s
