Dbvisit Standby version 8 comes with a nice feature, a daemon, which gives the benefit to send and apply the archive log automatically in the background. Bypassing the system scheduling, the daemon will facilitate customer RPO (Recovery Point Objective) and RTO (Recovery Time Objective) fine tuning. Monitoring to apply logs to the Standby only when needed, will also optimize use of resources. Originally available for the Linux based environments, the feature has been made available…
While deploying an ODA based on the DCS stack (odacli), it is mandatory to provide a “master” password at appliance creation. The web GUI provides for that a small tooltip which describes the rules applied on password management. However it looks like there is some flexibility with those rules. Lets try to check this out with some basics tests.
While playing with a brand new ODA X7-2M, I faced a strange behaviour after re-imaging the ODA with the latest version 12.2.1.2.0. Basically after re-imaging and doing the configure-firstnet the next step is to import the GI clone in the repository before creating the appliance. Unfortunately this command fails with an error DCS-10001:Internal error encountered: Fail to start hand shake to localhost:7070. Why not having a look on how to fix it…
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) have become since several years a standard in enterprise class networks. Most enterprises are now segregating their network, especially for security reasons, between server and user or prod and test or applications and backup and aso. In the new release of ODA we finally get the support for VLAN on the bare metal platform. This article will briefly demonstrate how these are managed using ODAADMCLI.
In this post I would like to share how I have been able to troubleshoot and solve a catalog import issue using RMAN debug function. As we can see, the error message provided by RMAN is not very helpful. oracle@vmtestoradg1:/home/oracle/ [RCAT12C] rman catalog rcat/manager Recovery Manager: Release 12.2.0.1.0 connected to recovery catalog database RMAN> import catalog rcat/manager@RCAT11G; Starting import catalog at 05-JAN-2018 14:11:45 connected to source recovery catalog database RMAN-00571: =========================================================== RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE…

There are currently a lot of new buzz words and re-namings which suggest that our DBA role is changing, most of them escorted with a #cloud hashtag. Oracle Technology Network is now called Oracle Developer Community. Larry Ellison announced the database that does not need to be operated by humans. And people talking about the death of DBA, about the future of DBA, about DBA 3.0,… Those are all generalizations and universal statements, and I…
I got an interesting question today from a customer which created a database on ODA. He selected the template odb-04 which shows 32GB Memory but got a database with a 16GB SGA… Is it due to the PGA size, a limitation in the system, the huge pages usage which is reached or even a bug?
