  3. Program Agenda • Introduction • Best Practices: Use a Lifecycle Advisor • Overview: Troubleshooting and Performance Advisors • Resolution Details • Q&A

  4. Best Practices:Use a Lifecycle Advisor

  5. Top Reasons for Creating Service Requests What we see the most: • Customer needing troubleshooting assistance • Performance planning missing from some project plans • Tools available to customers are unknown

  6. Prevent and Resolve Performance Advisor My Oracle Support Doc ID 1437143.1

  7. Prevent and Resolve Performance Issues • Use Cases • Evaluate • Test • Resolve PHASES

  8. Use Cases When to use the Prevent and Resolve Performance Issues Advisor • Performance Issue • New Implementations • Changes to your user population • Upgrades • Architecture Changes • Patching and Maintenance PREVENT

  9. Phases Prevent and Resolve Performance Issues • Evaluate • Asses the environment and set goals • Test • Plan and conduct tests • Resolve • Use best practice tools and concepts to diagnose

  10. Troubleshooting PSFT Issues Advisor My Oracle Support Doc ID 1524185.1 – Live soon

  11. Troubleshooting Advisor • Use Cases • Describe the Problem • Recreate the Problem • Determine the Source • Plan and Resolve PHASES

  12. Use Cases When to use the Advisor? • System down or down regularly/intermittently • End users cannot work at all, or seeing unexpected results • Errors • You have a problem, and you don’t know where to start

  13. Determine the Source • Identify a Diagnostic Tool

  14. Best Practices:Use Support Communities

  15. Oracle Communities User Community and Support forum

  16. Resolution Details

  17. Online tracing • Identify the ‘problem’ transaction • Select approach • Initiate tracing at login • Initiate tracing before ‘problem’ operation

  21. Online tracing • Navigate to where you want to trace • Launch ‘New Window’ • Navigate to Trace pages in the ‘New Window’ • PeopleTools -> Utilities -> Debug -> Trace PeopleCode • PeopleTools -> Utilities -> Debug -> Trace SQL • Use same or more detailed trace options • Return to first window to perform the problem operation • Return to the ‘New Window’ and turn off trace options • Specific Operation

  22. COOL TOOL! • Analyze .tracesql trace files • Download at: My Oracle Support Document ID: 1470578.1 (NOTE: No licensing required) • Learn more via the Recorded Webcast: Using TraceMagic to analyze *.tracesql files • Join the Community: Communities – Install/Upgrade: search on “TraceMagic” • TraceMagic Utility

  23. Tracing Settings to use for TraceMagic

  24. Without TraceMagic

  25. With TraceMagic

  26. Application Server • Tips • Enable LogFence=4 • Configuration Parameter in psappsrv.cfg • Review results • Displays component and duration • Results from all users intermixed • Results from all App Servers intermixed • Consider including LogErrorReport=Y

  27. Extended WebLogic HTTP Logging • WebLogic can be configured to capture details of each request by the Web server • WebLogic Admin Console is used to enable this feature • KM Doc: “How to Enable HTTP Extended Access Logging“ (Doc ID 662319.1) provides configuration details. • Logs will contain activities with long ‘time-taken’ value. • The URL should ‘point’ you to the problem component. • Using WebLogic to assist in problem diagnosis

  28. Database monitoring • Track Expensive SQL back to application • AWR Report in Oracle • Licensed product • Section on SQL Statistics will contain details on ‘Top 10’ SQL • Organized by Elapsed Time, CPU Time, Gets, Reads and others • Data collected for ‘sample intervals’ and report generated later • DB2 lock monitor and related reports • More difficult to parse through • Much of the same information is available except Component

  29. Database monitoring – AWR Example

  30. Batch Performance Diagnosis • Run Control can be modified to include TraceSQL and TracePC flags to capture diagnostics • TraceSQL 128 will provide a summary; KM DocID 1094728.1 • Other TraceSQL values will add details • 1 adds each AE Step information • 2 Adds SQL Statements – each execution • 4 Adds Temp Table allocation information • 1024 Adds timings to database • Sum of desired values determines trace flag to use • 128 for summary, 135 for detail and summary • Application Engine processes

  31. Application Engine Example

  32. Application Engine Example

  33. Batch Performance Diagnosis • Modify Run Control to include Trace 128 • Cobol process will generate file named “cobsql_pid.trc” • Trace will contain the name of each stored SQL statement, execution count, fetches and runtime. • Cobol SQL statements stored in database in table PS_SQLSTMT_TBL • How to Acquire a COBOL SQL Trace (KM Doc ID 1092955.1) • Cobol

  34. Cobol Trace 128 Example

  35. Web Server Logs • Web Server logs are generated automatically and are located in: • <web-home>/<domain>/servers/PIA/logs • The types of files there are:

  36. PIA.pidPIA_access.logPIA_servlets0.log.0…PIA_servlets2.log.4PIA_shutdown.logPIA_shutdownerr.logPIA_stderr.logPIA_stdout.logPIA_weblogic.logdiagnostic_imagespeoplesoft.logPIA.pidPIA_access.logPIA_servlets0.log.0…PIA_servlets2.log.4PIA_shutdown.logPIA_shutdownerr.logPIA_stderr.logPIA_stdout.logPIA_weblogic.logdiagnostic_imagespeoplesoft.log Web Server Logs - files

  37. Error Logs Generated by PeopleTools when there is a serious application error To log the process state information within the application server log itself:

  38. Error Log Sample

  39. Summary • Feedback – we welcome your comments • Future plans for the Advisor • Role based navigation • Task selection
