Server Administration :: 10g Change Disk With Datafiles
Nov 17, 2011
What is best practice to change small disk D:? I am beginner with Oracle. 10g on W2008. 5 datafiles (all indexes,second data file, 2 undotabs)*.dbf (34;30;1;34;12 GB) is on D:. Part of tablespaces (1 data, 1 undo)has files on c:.
I.
1.Shutdown 2008 server.
2.Copy D: image with GHOST to USB, network.
3.Connect new D, create RAID.
4.Restore image to D.
5.Start 2008 server.
II.
1.Stop application.
2.CONNECT AS SYSDBA
3.SHUTDOWN NORMAL or (IMMEDIATE)?
4.Copy files *.dbf at OS level from d: to ... USB disk, network.
5.Shutdown 2008 server.
6.Change disks, create RAID in BIOS.
7.Start W2008.
Is Oracle at this moment in SHUTDOWN mode?
8.Copy back *.dbf to new D: (with directory structure).
9.STARTUP Oracle.

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)

Due to improper documentations of a certain project, I need to drop a DEFAULT tablespace of a newly created instance including it's associated datafiles by using this command:
"DROP TABLESPACE <tablespace name> INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES;"
The default tablespace name is QWER (qwer01.dbf) and I added 2 datafiles in it, re: OPD_SML01.dbf & EXYT_SML01.dbf.
Do I have to do it online or offline?

i encoutered lately on such statement:
Table D-7 shows a hierarchical file mapping of a sample OFA-compliant installation with two Oracle home directories and two databases. The database files are distributed across three mount points, /u02, /u03, and /u04. URL....
why three mount points (/u02, /u03, and /u04) for datafiles? don' understant this. isn't it better to store all datafiles in one mountpoint?

I have checked the space of my tablespaces/datafiles in my database. I have 8 GB space left in my database server. I cant add more hard-disk as there is no slot left. We r planning to buy a new server with latest config.
My question is, how can we know upto what size our database can increase and when a datafile need to be added in advance. Sometimes even though datafiles have space left,it shows errors abt extents cannot be extended. We have coalesce the tablespaces and added a new datafile.

I am facing an issue while rebuilding a DR (Physical Standby) site using RMAN.Rman is failing to restore all the datafiles to the stanby site.
There are 403 datafiles that should be restored among which after restoring 50-60 datafiles the channel is abruptly getting terminated.Please note this exercise is not new I have done this many times (once a year after a DR testing) and the same script is being used.The rcv file is as follows
/u03/oracle/admin/mpr/scripts/dataguard/configure_dr.rcv
connect auxiliary sys/XXXX@YYY
run {
duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck dorecover;
}
exit
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET;
configure_dr.rcv: END
[code]....
The trace file says "krso_proc_add: Detected dead process 13828326; subsuming V$MANAGED_STANDBY slot
INFO: krsr_rfs_atc: RFS processes are temporarily disallowed"
I have also started RMAN debug tracing and the trace is also scanned as it is huge.I have seen the following in the trace error 3015 signalled during compilation..I do not find any specific oracle error to check on .
The only change that happened is that the Primary production server has been moved to a new datacentre and after its move all the connections seems to be working fine.

would want to check which tables located in which datafiles.
Tried with this command:
select B.FILE_NAME from dba_segments a, dba_data_files b
where a.header_file=b.file_ID and segment_name='TABLE_NAME'
Seems like it only shows 1 datafile. Some tables are large and i suppose it's resided in more than 1 datafile.

We have lost some datafiles and some archivelogs. We have backup of whole database taken on Dec 20 and archivelogs until Dec 23.So we dont have 1 day worth of archivelogs which can lead to incomplete recovery.
Now question is do we need to restore all datafiles or only lost datafiles for incomplete recovery since we dont have all archivelogs ? lost datafiles belong to different tablespaces.
Datafiles which are still intact are with current SCN and we restore lost datafiles only and recover unitl our last available archivelog it will have different SCN. Will we be able to open database or we need to resotre whole database for this scenario?

Resize or add disk in ASM.
- The storage has partitions like:
- And now, the size of ASM disk was full
Because I've not ever done for adding disk to diskgroup.
Step 1- Format the storage, add partitions (I will create 4 partitions of 120gb, 1 partitions 60gb, 1 partitions 27gb).
Step 2- Add the rawdevice in /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices.In the picture here, I'll not just add rawdevice in /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices. So I'll do:
add lines in /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices
/dev/raw/raw7 /dev/cciss/c0d1p9
/dev/raw/raw8 /dev/cciss/c0d1p10
/dev/raw/raw9 /dev/cciss/c0d1p11
/dev/raw/raw10 /dev/cciss/c0d1p12
[code]....
how to do continue after step 5.

I am using 11.2.0.1 database and I have all my datafiles,control files,redo logs in /home/oracle/oradata and i would like to completely move all the files to /data/oradata folder.
What is the best method? (without losing old backup's , without reset log , no new incarnation,no new DBID) can it be done online /offline?
Is it recreating control file with new location and open database without resetlog the best method?

usually i create oracle databases using the create database command, however im trying this time to use the dbca -silent -createDatabase -templateName General_Purpose.dbc - i have edited the General_Purpose.dbc to have the control files. datafiles etc to go to a different location other then the $ORACLE_BASE and no luck so far, whatever i do even changing the $oracle_base just dumps all into a location, how can i force it / change it - this is Oracle 11GR2 on linux
see sample of my General_Purpose.dbc
<initParam name="control_files" value="/u01/oradata/control01.ctl, /u02/oradata/control02.ctl"/>
<initParam name="diagnostic_dest" value="/backup/oracle/oradata"/>

What should be our approach when we see the disk response time is bad for a particular tablespace in database.I heard a good disk response time should be on an average 10ms.

I am working on ASM as i am bit confused to decide ASM Disk strategies in production Environments. For Ex:-
1.Normal Redundancy ( Allows 2 Mirror Groups ) :-
I have created Normal_DG Diskgroup with 4 Disks
Disk1-------------------
Disk2 ------- |
|--->FG2 ----> FG1
Disk3 ------- |
Disk4-------------------
According to my understanding , if Disk1 Fails Disk4 facilitates normal operations. When there is space crunch it operates in reduced redundancy . Am i right ?
2.I have got 4 Disks in one group (i.e from Disk1 To Disk4 ) i have not defined any failure group and as per my understanding all disks will be added to its own failure group without mirroring and striping.

I was setting up disks groups and I accidentally created one group (DATA) with "NORMAL" redundancy but wanted it to be "EXTERNAL". I tried using asmca to remove disks from the group, drop the group, change the redundancy..... All of this failed because there was an spfile on the disk group.
I finally got it to work with using this procedure:
sqlplus '/ as sysasm'
SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.3.0 Production on Thu Apr 5 08:58:19 2012
Copyright (c) 1982, 2011, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SQL> drop diskgroup DATA;
drop diskgroup DATA
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-15039: diskgroup not dropped
ORA-15053: diskgroup "DATA" contains existing files
[code]....
In summary, I am not sure why changing the redundancy would be so difficult if there is data on the disk group.

essentially create data fragmentation within the datafile resulting in the db having lots more space to write into but not actually freeing space, even if you shrink the file it doesnt free space or do a reorg?
We have as an example a DB with 2 billion rows of data in 1 table, no partioning just one large table.
We have worked out that we can probably delete 1 billion rows or even better only keep a rolling 3 month window of data.
What would be the suggestion on deleting this data and reclaiming the disk space to actually see additional disk space made available at the os level.
deleting the data and reclaiming the space.
Through reading it looks like it might be something like, delete, creating new table space partitions from this data. This in theory would create new a tablespace in newly created data files which would result in the data being reorganised and taking up less physical space and when completed you point to the newly created partitions and drop the old tables.

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?

My understanding of DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT parameter is that it affects only Full Table Scans and Fast Full Index Scans - all other disk retrieval is single block.If so, then maybe I'm reading this trace incorrectly:
select /*+ first_rows */ pk
from test_join_tgt
where pk >= 0
and rownum > 1
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
Parse 1 0.01 0.00 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Fetch 1 21.48 27.77 22368 22134 0 0
------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
total 3 21.49 27.78 22368 22134 0 0

What the heck is going on with the Multi-block reads in the Range Scan?

We are using Oracle 10g and have 10 tablespaces defined for our Database which have 108 tables. Size of 108 tables is around 251 MB as seen during importing the dump. While creating these 10 tablespaces I used below parameters for allocation of space
SIZE 1M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE 1M;
which set the initial space for 10 tablespaces to around 1032Kb each. Now my Question is after importing the dump , how the disk space for 10 tablespaces increases to 398 MB in total ?
Is there any relation of Tablespace disk space and Actual Data present in the tables ?

As per the bellow the default XML storage has been changed in 11gr2.
docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10492/whatsnew.htm
Quote:
Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2) New Features in Oracle XML DB
The following Oracle XML DB features are new in Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2).
Default Storage Model for XMLType
The default XMLType storage model is used if you do not specify a storage model when you create an XMLType table or column. Prior to Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2), unstructured (CLOB) storage was used by default. The default storage model is now binary XML storage.
We have a application which works fine on r1 but not on r2 due to this change, we are going to investigate resolving the issue on the application in the future, in the mean time we need to be able to use the CLOB storage.
Does any one know where we can change this functionality back to the pre 11gR2 change?

Currently my oracle database character set is we8mswin1252 and it is only containing English data as well as spatial data (which is in English of course). I would like to change the Database character set so it could accept Arabic characters.
I have checked the below command on a test DB and it worked fine, but I want to know if it's recommended as a best practice when changing the character set to accept arabic and this won't corrupt my old entered Data ?
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
STARTUP RESTRICT
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE AR8MSWIN1256
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
STARTUP
