Oracle Database 10g: RAC for Everyone
 Key focus of RAC 10g is on management
–
Goal: ubiquitous adoption of RAC
 Part of much larger Oracle Database effort
–
–
–
Oracle9i reduced administration costs by half
The Oracle Database 10g reduces administration
costs by another half
RAC is an integral part of the Oracle Database so it
benefits from all this work
7
Oracle RAC 10g For Everyone
 Eliminate need for 3rd party components that
add significantly to complexity and cost
 Automatic workload management
 Automatic fast failure notification (FaN)
 Single system image GUI management
 Improved diagnostic and verification tools
 Performance improvements
8
The Problem with Third Party Cluster Software
 No single point of support
 High Cost
–
–
Multiple products to
license
Labor intensive to
install, integrate, and
manage
 Uneven quality &
functionality across
platforms
 Small # of nodes
 No common event or
management APIs
Applications
Cluster Control/Failover APIs
Resource Manager/Resource Agents
Volume Manager/File system
Messaging and Locking
Membership
Connectivity
Hardware/OS Kernel
9
RAC 10g Integrated Clusterware
–
No need to purchase
additional software
Easy to install, manage
 High quality and functionality
across all platforms
–
64 nodes on all platforms
 Advanced functionality
–
Failure Notification (FaN)
 Support for third-party

10
Automatic Workload Management
 Application workloads can be defined as
Services
–
–
–
Individually managed and controlled
Assigned to instances during normal startup
On instance failure, automatic re-assignment
 Service performance individually tracked
 Finer grained control with Resource Manager
 Integrated with other Oracle tools / facilities

16
Automatic Workload Management
Defining Services
 Create a service for each workload you want
to separately manage
–
A small number may be adequate
 Each service gets a globally unique name
 No application changes required
–
–
Services specified in TNS connect data
e.g, using Net Easy*Connection in 10g
scott/tiger@//myVIP/myservice
17
Automatic Workload Management
Defining Allocation Rules Using DBCA
 Rules specify automatic
resource allocations
–
–
PREFERRED
instances during
normal conditions
AVAILABLE instances
should failures occur
18
Automatic Workload Management
Enterprise Manager Controls
 Performs service
operations
–
–
–
Start / Stop
Enable / Disable
Relocate
 View service status
–
Including automatic
resource allocation
rules
19
Automatic Workload Management
Performance Tracking
 Automatic Workload Repository (AWR)
–
Tracks performance by service
 e.g, average response times for calls
–
Applications can specify MODULE and ACTIONS
for finer grained monitoring
 e.g. average response time for key transactions
–
Thresholds can be set to alert DBAs when
performance doesn’t meet service levels
20
Automatic Workload Management
Performance Tracking
• Set MODULE / ACTION using JDBC
• Note: no extra message exchange with server
• – setting “bundled” with call
String[] metrics = new
String[OracleConnection.END_TO_END_STATE_INDEX_MAX];
metrics[OracleConnection.END_TO_END_MODULE_INDEX] = "myModule";
metrics[OracleConnection.END_TO_END_ACTION_INDEX] = "myAction";
OracleConnection conn = ds.getConnection();
conn.setEndToEndMetrics(metrics, 0);
21
Automatic Workload Management
Performance Tracking
• Set MODULE / ACTION using OCI
• No extra message exchanged – “bundled”
OCIAttrSet(session, OCI_HTYPE_SESSION,(dvoid *)
“set salary", (ub4)strlen(“set salary"),
OCI_ATTR_ACTION, error_handle);
• Set MODULE / ACTION using PL/SQL
• Does require extra message exchanges
DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.SET_MODULE 9
module_name => ‘add_employee’
action_name => ‘record contact info’);
22
Automatic Workload Management
Performance Tracking
23
Automatic Workload Management
Finer Grained Control
 Resource Manager
–
Services can be mapped to consumer groups for
finer grain control
 e.g., service Online gets 80% of CPU while
service Batch gets only 20%
–
Mapping example:
Execute DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING
(DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SERVICE_NAME,’ONLINE’,’HIGH_PRIORITY’);
24
Automatic Workload Management
Integration with Other Tools
 Job Scheduler
–
Job classes mapped to services
 Parallel Query / DML
–
–
Query coordinator connects to a service like any
other client
Parallel slaves inherit service from coordinator
 Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing
–
–
Queues accessed by service
Achieves location transparency
25

RAC
 Fast, coordinated
recovery without human
intervention
–
–
Oracle RAC 10g
signals 10g JDBC Fast
Connect Failover when
instances failures occur
Immediate recovery for
mid-tiers
 < 4 seconds from
15 minutes
 self correcting
26
Failure Notification (FaNTM)
JDBC Fast Connection Failover Processing
 Supports multiple
connection caches
 Datasource for each
cache mapped to a
service
 Keeps track of service
and instance for each
connection
 Distributes new work
requests across
available instances
JDBC / Mid-Tier
Database Tier

27
Failure Notification (FaNTM)
JDBC Fast Connection Failover Processing
 When DOWN signal received from RAC 10g
–
–
Routes new requests to surviving instances
Throws exception if application was in midst of
transaction
 When UP signal received from RAC 10g
–
–
Creates new connections to new instances
Distributes new work requests evenly to all
available instances
28
Notification Callouts
 Users can write callout programs that are
invoked when notifications occur
–
Notifications include node up/down, instance
up/down, or service up/down
 Example usages:
–
–
–
Send email, page
Log status info
Start / stop programs
29
Single System Image Management
 Enterprise Manager 10g enables management of RAC
environments as single system image
 Cluster Database page provides RAC – wide view
–
–
–
–
Aggregates status, performance data across all instances
