  3. Managing Oracle Services • Oracle Services can be accessed by Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services • You can start, stop, pause and restart an Oracle Service. • Services can also be enabled or disabled. • It is also possible to run a custom program upon a Service failure event.

  4. Viewing Oracle Events • Oracle Events can be viewed through the Application Event Viewer. • The Event Viewer can be accessed by Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer • Choose Application from the Log menu. • Oracle 10g problems and other significant events are recorded here. • A “drill-down” description of each event is available by double-clicking an individual event.

  5. The Task Manager Tool • The Task Manager Tool displays: • High-level summary of the concurrent applications and processes running • Information about process state • Graphical summary of CPU usage • Graphical summary of memory usage • Information about OS users • Task Manager can be used to change the priority of a process. • The Task Manager can be launched two ways: • Hit control-alt-escape • Right-click on the task bar at the bottom of the screen • The Performance tab contains useful information that directly impacts Oracle performance

  6. The Task Manager Tool – Oracle Performance • CPU Usage, as well as Memory and Page File Usage can be monitored with the Performance tab • Both CPU Usage and Memory and Page File Usage are critical for Oracle performance • CPU Usage should be consistently high, but not maxed out • You should not consistently see higher memory usage than the physical RAM • Neither should you see high Page File Usage or a steadily climbing rate of Page File Usage

  7. The System Monitor • Launching Perfmon • Start  Programs  Administrative Tools  Performance

  8. System Performance Monitor • Performance Objects • Counters • Explain Text

  9. Performance Logs and Alerts • Right click on Counter Logs, Trace Logs, or alerts to set up • Alerts require you to set limits for counter values • Creating a performance log file with System Monitor • Comma-separated format or tab-separated format • Use meaningful collection intervals (> 1 minute)

  10. Administration Assistant for Windows • Startup from Start -> Oracle -Orahome92 -> Configuration and Migration Tools -> Administration Assistant for Windows • Maneuver to the Database object • Right click to login • You can now startup and shutdown Oracle, as well as several other administrative functions. • Right click and choose Process Information • This gives you a way to kill Oracle threads, if necessary.

  11. Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor • To initially configure the Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor, open a command line window • Enter the following: OPerfCfg –U system –P {password} –D {SID} • The registry entries for the Performance Monitor are now set. • Note: Oracle Counters for Performance Monitor is sensitive to Oracle Net settings, which must be correct

  12. Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor • Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Manager is available as a stand-alone application, or as add-in performance counters to Perfmon • Startup from Start -> Oracle -Orahome92 -> Configuration and Migration Tools -> Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor • By default, two Oracle counters for Sorts are displayed.

  13. Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor • To display alternate counters, right-click in the window and choose Properties • Click on the Performance Object menu. A list of Oracle counters is displayed. • Use the Add and Remove buttons to modify the display. • For example, to monitor database I/O, add the following counters: • physreads/sec • physwrites/sec

  14. Managing Oracle with SQL Plus • Startup SQL Plus from Start -> Oracle -Orahome92 -> Application Development -> SQL Plus • Log in as the SYSTEM user. • You can then use connect / as sysdba to login with full privileges (on the console) • You can now startup and shutdown Oracle, as well as any other administrative function.

  15. The ORADIM Utility • The ORADIM utility is a command line tool that can be used to manually create, delete or modify databases • To get help, enter oradim -? | -H | -HELP • To create an instance called PROD, for example, you could enter: C:\> oradim -NEW -SID prod -INTPWD mypassword1 -STARTMODE auto -PFILE C:\oracle\admin\prod\pfile\init.ora • To start an instance called PROD, for example, you could enter: C:\> oradim -STARTUP -SID prod -STARTTYPE inst -PFILE C:\oracle\admin\prod\pfile\init.ora

  16. The ORADIM Utility • To stop an instance called PROD, for example, you could enter: C:\> oradim -SHUTDOWN -SID prod -SHUTTYPE srvc, inst • To change an instance name from prod to lynx, set a new instance password mycat123, and specify a new initialization parameter file, for example, you could enter: C:\> oradim -EDIT -SID prod -NEWSID lynx -INTPWD mycat123 -STARTMODE a –PFILE C:\oracle\admin\lynx\pfile\init.ora • To delete an instance called prod, for example, you might enter: C:\> oradim -DELETE -SID prod

  17. Creating an Oracle Password File • To establish a secure local logon user and password, you need to create a password file • It can also be used for remote access to the database for selected users • To start, open a command line session and cd C:\oracle\ora92\dbs • Enter the following: orapwd file=ORACLE_SIDpwd password={your password} entries=5 (the maximum number of open admin connections) • A password file is now created

  18. The Oracle ORADEBUG Utility • The ORADEBUG utility is a debugging tool that sends debug commands through SQL*Plus to an Oracle process. • To start the ORADEBUG utility: • Start SQL*Plus from the command prompt:C:\> sqlplus / NOLOG • Connect to Oracle9i database as SYSDBA:SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA • Enter the following at the SQL*Plus prompt:SQL> ORADEBUG ORADEBUG • The utility runs and prompts you for parameters.

  19. The Oracle ORADEBUG Utility • To obtain a list of ORADEBUG parameters, enter the following: SQL> ORADEBUG HELP • Output from most debug commands is written to trace files in the BACKGROUND_DUMP_DEST and USER_DUMP_DEST directories. • To find the location of your trace file, enter the following at the SQL*Plus prompt: SQL> ORADEBUG TRACEFILE_NAME • If output is more than one line, then the result is sent to a trace file. • If a debug command produces only one line of output, then the output is relayed directly to SQL*Plus.

  20. Statspack • Standard Performance Package • Similar to original BSTAT/ESTAT • Install @?\rdbms\admin\spcreate • Run SQL> CONNECT perfstat/perfstat SQL> EXECUTE statspack.snap; • Create the report with @spreport • Tell it which snapshots to use. • A report is created. • Report contains a wealth of diagnostic information and predictive tools

  21. Statspack Output Summary • Statspack is divided into several sections including: • Summary information • RAC statistics (if applicable) • Wait events • Top resource consumers • Instance activity • Cache statistics • Rollback and Undo statistics • SGA and Shared Pool statistics • Initialization parameters

  22. Automatic Workload Repository Features • Statspack on Steroids (10g only) • Collects stats every 60 minutes • Kept for a week then purged • A collection of performance stats • A new background process MMON • Resides in new sysaux tablespace

  23. Automatic Workload Repository Reports • Two reports provided by Oracle • awrrpt.sql • awrrpti.sql • Similar to Statspack report • Reports can be generated with scripts or through a GUI interface • Optional HTML or plain text formats

  24. Administering Oracle and Monitoring Performance with Oracle 10g Grid Control • Oracle Grid Control is the enhanced version of OEM that is installed with Oracle 10g • Requires a central Management Repository and Agents on each database server • Enhancements for managing and deploying RAC nodes and application grid nodes • Significant improvements in automatic performance monitoring and analysis • Central interface for administering and monitoring Oracle 10g • Perform all Administration tasks • Contains a variety of Advisors for improving performance

  25. Oracle Grid Control Performance Page • The database Performance page gives a quick look at performance trends • Host CPU • Average Active Sessions • Instance Disk I/O • Instance Throughput

  26. AWR Reports • To create an AWR report: • On the Database Administration page, select the Automatic Workload Repository link under Statistics Management. The Automatic Workload Repository page appears. • Under Manage Snapshots and Preserved Snapshot Sets, click Snapshots link. The Snapshots page appears. • Under Select Beginning Snapshot, select the start point for the range of snapshots that will be included in the report. • From the Actions pull-down menu, select View Report and click Go. The View Report page appears. • Under Select Ending Snapshot, select the end point for the range of snapshots and click OK. The Processing: View Report page appears while the report is being generated. • Once completed, the Snapshot Details page appears and the report will be displayed. • To save the report as an HTML file, click Save to File.

  28. Using the Segment Space Advisor • The Oracle 10g Segment Advisor helps you determine whether an object has space available for reclamation. • Available in 10g OEM or Grid Control • The Segment Advisor can generate advice at three levels: • Object level - advice is generated for the entire object, such as a table. Advice does not cascade to dependent objects. • Segment level, - advice is generated for a single segment, such as unpartitioned table, a partition or subpartition of a partitioned table, or an index or LOB column. • Tablespace level - advice is generated for every segment in the tablespace.

  37. Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor • ADDM considers the following to make performance tuning recommendations: • CPU bottlenecks • Undersized Memory Structures • I/O capacity issues • High load SQL statements • High load PL/SQL execution and compilation • High load Java usage • RAC specific issues: • Global cache hot blocks and objects • Iinterconnect latency issues

  38. Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor (cont.) • ADDM considers the following to make recommendations: • Sub-optimal use of Oracle by the application: • Poor connection management • Excessive parsing • Application level lock contention • Database configuration issues: • Incorrect sizing of log files • Archiving issues, excessive checkpoints • Sub-optimal parameter settings • Concurrency issues - Are there buffer busy problems? • Hot objects and top SQL for various problem areas

  39. ADDM Recommended Solutions • Hardware changes • Adding CPUs • Changing the I/O subsystem configuration • Database configuration • Changing initialization parameter settings • Schema changes • Hash partitioning a table or index • Using automatic segment-space management (ASSM) • Application changes • Using the cache option for sequences • Using bind variables • Using other advisors • Running the SQL Tuning Advisor on high load SQL • Running the Segment Advisor on hot objects

  40. Viewing Current ADDM Findings • You can view ADDM findings based on the latest analysis period within OEM • Go to the Database Home page • View the Diagnostic Summary to see a list of ADDM findings • Click on a finding link to see details

  41. ADDM Findings in OEM

  42. Running ADDM Manually • From the Database Home page • Under Related Links, click the Advisor Central link • On the ADDM page, under Advisors, click the ADDM link • Select Run ADDM to analyze past instance performance • Choose the Period Start Time (choose starting snapshot) • Choose the Period End Time (default is last snapshot) • Click OK to start analysis

  43. Running ADDM in OEM

  44. Scheduling Jobs in Oracle 10g • Oracle 10g contains a new Scheduler for scheduling and tracking jobs. • One way to access the Scheduler is through the Grid Control Job Activity page. From this page you can: • Search for existing job runs and job executions • Restrict the search by name, owner, status, scheduled start, job type, target type, and target name. • Create a job • View, edit, create like, suspend, resume, stop, and delete a run • View, edit, create like, suspend, resume, retry, stop, and delete an execution

  45. RAC Cluster Cache Coherency • Heavy concurrent read and write activity on shared data in a cluster can cause performance problems. • The Cluster Cache Coherency page enables you to • View cache coherency metrics for the entire cluster database • Identify processing trends • Optimize performance for your Real Application Clusters environment

  46. Cluster Interconnects • The Cluster Interconnects page enables you to view the current state of interfaces on hosts • You can use this page to • Monitor the interconnect interfaces • Determine configuration issues • Identify transfer rate-related issues, such as excess traffic. • This page helps determine the load added by individual instances and databases on the interconnect. • Sometimes, you can immediately identify interconnect delays due to applications outside the Oracle Database.
