Monitoring Oracle RAC Database and Cluster Performance.

Monitoring Oracle RAC Database and Cluster Performance.

Both Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control and Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control are cluster-aware and provide a central console to manage your cluster database. 

From the Cluster Database Home page, you can do all of the following:

View the overall system status, such as the number of nodes in the cluster and their current status. This high-level view capability means that you do not have to access each individual database instance for details if you just want to see inclusive, aggregated information.

View alert messages aggregated across all the instances with lists for the source of each alert message. An alert message is an indicator that signifies that a particular metric condition has been encountered. A metric is a unit of measurement used to report the system's conditions.

Review issues that are affecting the entire cluster and those that are affecting individual instances.

Monitor cluster cache coherency statistics to help you identify processing trends and optimize performance for your Oracle RAC environment. Cache coherency statistics measure how well the data in caches on multiple instances is synchronized. If the data caches are completely synchronized with each other, then reading a memory location from the cache on any instance returns the most recent data written to that location from any cache on any instance.

Determine if any of the services for the cluster database are having availability problems. A service is considered to be a problem service if it is not running on all preferred instances, if its response time thresholds are not met, and so on. Clicking on the link on the Cluster Database Home page opens the Cluster Managed Database services page where the service can be managed.

Review any outstanding Clusterware interconnect alerts.

Thanks,

Issues and Solutions for Oracle 19c Grid Infrastructure Installation

     Common Issues and Solutions for Oracle 19c Grid Infrastructure Installation •       Check Log Files for Details Oracle installation issues often provide valuable clues in the log files. If the installer seems stuck or fails, check the following logs: ▪ Install log : /u01/app/oraInventory/logs/installActions<date>.log •       ▪ Grid Infrastructure log : $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/ •         •       These logs can provide error messages and help identify the exact issue. •         •        Check Permissions and Ownership Verify that the Oracle Grid Infrastructure installation directories have the correct ownership and permissions. •        For example: •        Make sure the grid user has permission to write to the directories where the i...

How to Improve Oracle Data Pump Performance - IMPDP

  How to Improve Oracle Data Pump Performance:- Use Parallelism : Set the PARALLEL parameter to at least 2 * number of CPUs . This allows multiple worker processes to perform tasks simultaneously, speeding up both export and import processes. Example: PARALLEL=4 for a system with 2 CPUs. Perform Import Using NETWORK_LINK : Use the NETWORK_LINK parameter to import data directly from the source database. This method is particularly helpful when space is constrained, as it streams the data without needing to generate dump files on the source. It can also reduce time compared to exporting and then importing, as data is streamed directly from the source to the target database. Disable Archivelog Mode (Standalone Databases) : For standalone databases, temporarily disable archive logging during the import process. Import operations can generate a lot of redo logs, slowing down the import. Disabling...

Dynamic remastering ad Dynamic Reconfiguration in ORACLE RAC

Before starting discussion on dynamic remastering, you need to be familiar with Global Resource Directory.  GRD basically contains useful information such as data block address, mode (null, shared or exclusive), role(local or global), SCN, past image and current image. Each instance maintains the portion of GRD in its own SGA. In other words, any node which is master of particular object or a block maintains the GRD portion for those blocks in its SGA. GCS in conjunction with GES is actually responsible for updating GRD for a resource in instance's SGA. The objective of dynamic remastering is to master buffer cache resource on the instance where it's mostly accessed. In Oracle RAC , Each and every data block is mastered by an Instance. That Instance is called Resource Master for that data block. Master Instance keeps track of the status of the data block like which instance is holding instance for this block , in which state it is being held etc.This Information is stored in GR...
