Now that we have cloned our ORATEST source database into a clone database named ORATCL1 (see Nutanix Era Blog part 5), we will see how we can refresh it and see the impacts on the oracle database itself. For more information on Nutanix products, I would encourage you to visit Nutanix website.
Now that we have our ORATEST database provisioned (see Nutanix Era blog part 3), that we could run snapshot and take Log Catch Up (see Nutanix Era Blog part 4), we will now see how we can clone an oracle database. For more information on Nutanix products, I would encourage you to visit Nutanix website.
Now that we have our ORATEST database provisioned (see Nutanix Era blog part 3), we will be looking how to run snapshot and Log Catch Up and how will this take effects on our oracle database. For more information on Nutanix products, I would encourage you to visit Nutanix website.
In the previous blog (Part 2) we have created a VM template for oracle database and we could successfully registered it in Nutanix Era. Now we are going to use it to provision an oracle database named ORATEST on a new VM called test1-VM. For more information on Nutanix products, I would encourage you to visit Nutanix website.
This is the part 2 of Nutanix Era blogs related to the use with Oracle databases. Before using Nutanix Era with Oracle and be able to provision oracle databases, we need to create a template VM. To do so, we will need to use prism. This template VM will only be used as a reference each time we will provision a database mainly to get the operation system and the Oracle environment. The cpu cores…
I’m currently setting up a lab for Nutanix Era in order to be able to provide some presentation on this subject and see how Nutanix Era interacts with Oracle databases. I therefore thought it would be certainly helpful and a good opportunity to share the feedback I’m getting from this experience. The lab has been built using Nutanix Cluster free trial integrated with our AWS Cloud account. This fist blog intends to provide only a…
You might know that since ODA 19.10, the ODA metadata database is now stored in a MySQL database and not in the apache derby database any more. During a patching to 19.10 or 19.11 from a release earlier than 19.10, the apache derby database will be migrated to a mysql database. This is performed during the odacli update-dcscomponent command. Starting 19.10, DCS Agent will then use MySQL server to display any metadata information, as for…
During all my ODA projects where I need to perform patching operation, I’m using odabr tool. This tool is really easy to use and well designed. It offers the possibility to create snapshot on the /, /u01 and /opt LVM file systems as well as a physical copy (rsync) of the files to an external destination storage as NFS. This is powerful in case you would like to get just one file back. The tool,…
I recently needed to configure bonding between 2 network cards on a customer side and I wanted trough this blog to share my findings and how I built it showing some traces. I will also do a short comparison of what is possible or not on the ODA.
Having recently reimaged and patched several ODA in version 19.8 and 19.9, I could see an issue with NTP. During my troubleshooting I could determine the root cause and find appropriate solution. Through this blog I would like to share my experience with you.
