Infrastructure at your Service
This write-up follows my first article about helm chart with SQL Server. This time, I would like to cover the availability groups topic and how to deploy them with helm charts. In fact, to go through this feature for AGs was motivated to its usage in our Azure DevOps CI pipeline in order to deploy a configurable one on an AKS cluster with SQL Server 2019. If you look carefully at the release pipeline, Windocks…
Oracle 19c, Oracle Cloud in numbers and pre-build environments on vagrant, docker and Oracle Linux Cloud Native environment, those were some of the topics at Open World Europe Conference in London. To see what’s behind with links to detailed sources, please read on.
Integration catalog is easy to work with and the environments feature is as well very convenient. In SQL Server management Studio, there are a lot of features available to administrate your SQL Server instances, but some are missing that can be very useful. You have the possibility to move an SSISDB environment but this is only possible in another folder of your SSIS catalog. But how if you will to duplicate your environment or move…
I needed a special package on my OVM Server 3.4.6. The package is called fio and is needed to do some I/O performance tests. Unfortunately, OVM Server does not provide any package for compiling software and installing additional software to your OVM Server is also not supported. But there is a solution:
PostgreSQL 12 will give you more control on resetting statistics gathered by pg_stat_statements. When you check the documentation for PostgreSQL 11 (as linked in the previous sentence) you will see that the function has the following signature:
This blog will go straight to the topic. When upgrading/installing your content server to 7+, you may experience an internal error with a popup telling you to look into a file called something like: DBTestResult7092863812136784595.tmp In fact, the installation process failed to test the database connection. Even if it managed to find your schema previously. In the file you’ll find something like: Last SQL statement executed by DB was: #0 0x00000033b440f33e in waitpid () from…
Often switching off resource plan feature of Oracle database is desired. Unfortunately setting parameter RESOURCE_MANAGER_PLAN to empty string does not help, because it does not disable switching to another resource plan, e.g. with dbms_scheduler. Following procedure prevents this switching. 1. Creation of a dummy resource plan, e.g. TEST_PLAN: BEGIN DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CLEAR_PENDING_AREA(); DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_PENDING_AREA(); DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_PLAN( plan =>’TEST_PLAN’, comment => ‘plan for TEST’, mgmt_mth => ‘EMPHASIS’, active_sess_pool_mth => ‘ACTIVE_SESS_POOL_ABSOLUTE’, parallel_degree_limit_mth => ‘PARALLEL_DEGREE_LIMIT_ABSOLUTE’); DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_PLAN_DIRECTIVE( plan =>’TEST_PLAN’, group_or_subplan => ‘OTHER_GROUPS’, comment…
Automation is key today, nobody wants to do the same tasks over and over and again. Cloud without automation is not even possible. There are several tools around that help with automation and one of the most popular is Ansible. We already have several posts about Ansible on our blog platform but this one will be rather long. Setting up PostgreSQL high available architectures is our daily business and we as well try to automate…
When trying to patch your virtualized ODA with patch 12.1.2.12.0 and immediately after that with 12.2.1.4.0, you might consider to load the patches like this: [root@XX1 Oracle_Soft_Repo]# oakcli unpack -package /cloudfs/Oracle_Soft_Repo/p26433712_1212120_Linux-x86-64_1of2.zip Unpacking will take some time, Please wait… Successfully unpacked the files to repository.

In a previous blog , I talked about installing and configuring Edb Failover Manager with PostgreSQL. The configuration of a Virtual Ip Address was not discussed in this previous article.In this blog I am going to show how we can implement a virtual IP with EFM. We suppose that -The standby is already built -EFM is configured and running (see here for the configuration) Below our configuration ( Iam using PostgreSQL 11.1 with Centos 7)…
