- #4 Ask your questions right away - too many different topics
- #5 Not finished
- #6 Not finished
- #7 Not finished
- #8 Association - warehouse Introduced in 10g and surprisingly stable Based on old technology
- #9 INTRO - ASM and RDBMS - for ASM instances and for DB compatible init.ora parameter. ASM compat - metadata format. RDBMS compat - files content format. Default 10.1 - no new features. Defined per disk group. Case study - upgrade to 11g & downgrade, smooth upgrade path, transportable tablespaces. select i.ksppinm, v.ksppstvl from x$ksppi i, x$ksppcv v where i.ksppinm in ('_rdbms_compatibility','_asm_compatibility') and i.indx=v.indx;
- #10 1. start rolling migration 2. upgrade all instances one by one ASM provides limited services 3. stop rolling migration
- #11 AU - smallest chunk of space that Oracle can allocate; coarse stripe size problem - inflexible physical layout + high overhead for VLDB 10g - underscore parameter - instance-wide + undocumented/unsupported 11g - official way to change AU size per diskgroup. AU 1-8 MB - compat 10.1 but 6-64 MB - compat 11.1. Fine striping is not changed!
- #12 Fully automatic. Explain how it works. Main purpose - reduce overhead on disk mount and file open for huge files, sga overhead for extent maps.
- #13 10g - disk failure -> BROKEN & rebalancing 11g FMR - disk failure -> OFFLINE -> wait for disk_repair_time (3.6h default) -> rebalancing if too log or ALTER DISKGROUP DISK ... ONLINE; * can do manual ALTER DISKGROUP DISK ... OFFLINE; FMR - case study SAN firmware update, FMR - case study extended clusters FB - case study - rebalancing takes days and impacts performance but night can be offline
- #14 Case study - extended clusters - in addition to Fast Mirror Resync
- #15 cp - doesn’t work for controlfiles but works for datafiles and spfle; strange path copying to ASM remap - ASM detects corruption on read and re-allocates extent. remap causes ASM to read blocks and repair if needed. md_backup/md_restore - can re-create DG on disks and directory structure
- #18 * lighter compression * multisection backup (max 256 sections) * UNDO backup optimization - CONFIGURE BACKUP UNDO OPTIMIZATION
- #19 Use case - recovery window of 7 days + monthly for one year KEEP FOREVER - requires catalog Deletion policy shipped is new in 11g DB_NIQUE_NAME - useful for standby
- #21 ADVISE - human language; REPAIR .. PREVIEW - script CHANGE - change priority, close
- #23 FROM ACTIVE DATABASE - no UNTIL clause - time is chosen automatically based on the last datafile copy completed PASSWORD FILE - by default for standby and optional for normal duplicate.
- #27 Use case for Active Data Guard - use DR for reporting without RTO impact, management is happy - DR hardware is utilized! RTO = Recovery Time Objective - how quick we can recover. Use case for snapshot - testing 1. convert to snapshot 2. test on it (database diverges) 3. convert to physical standby
- #28 DB_UNIQUE_NAME - unsure that no standby has the same DB_UNIQUE_NAME as primary
- #32 Invisible indexes are maintained as usual by all DML’s but not used by CBO by default.
- #33 Old way - add NULL column, updated NULLs, change to NOT NULL
- #34 Doc says 1000000=infinity. To test - wait 11+ days
- #36 Can also do FK Redesign physical data and keep referential integrity
- #37 I did a test in single process - no visible difference Behind the scene does the same!
- #49 Laurent Schneider has interesting blog post about case-sensitive passwords
- #50 Purge?
