What is Cluster Health Advisor GUI or CHAG ?

Posted by FatDBA on January 4, 2023

CHA GUI (CHAG) is a graphical user interface for Cluster Health Advisor (CHA) which was earlier internal to Oracle teams but its now available to the customers. It is a standalone, interactive, real-time capable front-end/GUI to the classic CHA utility. Oracle 12.2 is the first version that is supported by CHA GUI (CHAG). You only require RAC license and there is no need for any additional license to use CHAG tool.

CHAG communicates directly with the Grid Infrastructure Management Repository (GIMR) using a JDBC connection.. GIMR is mandatory for CHAG to work as it fetches the data out of the GIMR repository. In case you don’t have the GIMR repo installed, for example on 19c databases as GIMR is optional there, you can use the local mode for CHAG to work, but in absence of GIMR mgmt repo you will not get the historical abilities to go back in time.

Installation is quite simple, you have to download and unzip the software on one of your cluster machines and I recommend not to dump it inside your ORACLE HOME, but in a separate place. CHAG requires X11 or XHost and Java as it uses Java Swing to open the GUI. CHAG can operate in several modes:

With a default connection to GIMR Database. This option initiate a live session and provide real-time monitoring.
With a user specified location of a GIMR Database (option -P). This option initiate a live session and provide real-time monitoring.
Read in a text file with monitoring data (option -f). This initiates a passive session, which allow to analyze textual data extracted from a GIMR, or data collected during a live session. This data is held in a “*.mdb” file.
Parse text file with data and generate JSON object with information similar to query “diagnosis” (option -C). This mode of operation ‘chag -C -f ‘ directs CHAG to parse a *.mdb file and to generate a summary of its content in JSON format.

For the offline mode you can get the “mdb” file to analyze using below command. Depending on the time model you will get n number of mdb files for the period.

chactl export repository -format mdb -start <timestamp> -end <timestamp>

About the usage, CHAG is invoked using the ‘chag’ script available in the bin directory of the CHA Home. CHAG is designed primarily for Cluster or Database experts. Usage is quite simple and straight forward, you can move the pointer/slider to choose any particular timeframe to catch problems, their cause and the corrective actions. You can use it both in real time and offline version, its just that for real time you have to be on any of the cluster node, for offline you can generate the MDB file (cha datafile) and can run it anywhere on the client machine with no need of oracle home and only Java will be needed.

Below is the CHAG look and feel, its running on a 2 node RAC cluster where we have two databases installed. Here you see few color codes, where red colors means there were few problems during that interval.

Next is how it explains more about any particular problem caught for the timeslot. Gives you cause and the corrective action, for example in below screenshot it has detected that the ASM IO service time is higher than the expected which points to the underlying IO Subsystem used by ASM disks.

You can use SHIFT keys combinations to get wait event specific details for the selected time period.

You can use few other SHIFT key combinations to present the same data in the form of line graphs.

Few more examples or problems detected by the CHAG. This time it was reporting for redo log writes which are slower and that is something expected as ASM IO is slow too means the entire IO subsystem is impacted.

I highly recommend all readers to go through Doc ID 2340062.1 on metalink for more details on Cluster Health Advisor Graphical User Interface – CHAG.

No Hint, No Degree, No Auto-DOP, Why my query is going for the parallelism ?

Posted by FatDBA on December 16, 2022

Recently I was working on a performance problem where customer reported few of their SQL statements going for parallelism even when they are not forcing DOP via any HINT, and all of the referenced table and underlying Indexes were with degree=1

I was asked to take a look, and I immediately checked if Auto DOP was the reason forcing unwanted parallelism, but parallel_degree_policy was set to MANUAL which means the auto DOP, statement queuing and in-memory parallel execution all were disabled.

SQL> show parameter parallel_degree_policy

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
parallel_degree_policy               string      MANUAL

Next, I thought to verify Table and Indexes general stats or details and I queried DBA_TABLES & DBA_INDEXES for Instances column, and found one of the table was set to value ‘DEFAULT’. If we have a value of DEFAULT set for INSTANCES, it will always force the query use DEFAULT degree of parallelism.

Let me explain the impact of having DEFAULT value for Instances, and how it forces SQL to spawn parallelism. For demo purpose, I am going to create a test table and an index with INSTANCES value set to DEFAULT.

[oracle@oracleontario ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba

SQL> create table fatdba_table as select * from dba_objects;

SQL>
SQL> select count(*) from fatdba_table;

  COUNT(*)
----------
     74932

SQL>

SQL> create index fatdba_table_idx on fatdba_table(OBJECT_TYPE,object_name) parallel(DEGREE 1 INSTANCES DEFAULT);

Index created.

SQL>
SQL> select index_name,degree,instances from dba_indexes where index_name='FATDBA_TABLE_IDX';

INDEX_NAME                     DEGREE                                   INSTANCES
------------------------------ ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
FATDBA_TABLE_IDX               1                                        DEFAULT

SQL>

Alright the stage is set, lets run a SQL statement and force it to use that Index and see its impact on the execution.

SQL> explain plan for select /*+ index_ffs(fatdba_table,fatdba_table_idx) */ count(distinct object_name) from fatdba_table

Some of the new exotic wait events in Oracle 21c …

Posted by FatDBA on November 12, 2022

Hi Guys,

Lately I was doing tests on Oracle 21c and came across few of the exotic new wait events added to Oracle 21c. I was using 21.3.0.0.0 and have noticed few new Exadata, ASM, Dataguard, AI/ML, Exascale, Cluster, exa persistent memory, CTWR etc. specific waits were added to the database. I have also noticed some strange looking waits as well i.e. ‘Spare1′,’Spare2′,’Spare3’ ….

Being an innovation release, and since this is a beta version, there is no document available or published for the customer for any of these new waits on Metalink

Couple of new ‘Bloom Filter‘ related waits added to 21c
Bloom Filter EOF Bloom Filter Fetch

Bunch of new Exadata ‘smart Index|Table scan’ related, User I/O classed wait events added to 21c are
cell smart index scan request cell smart index scan: db timezone upgrade cell smart index scan: disabled by user cell smart index scan: pass through cell smart table scan request cell smart table scan: db timezone upgrade cell smart table scan: disabled by user cell smart table scan: pass through cell worker online completion cell worker retry

Few of the new machine learning & Artificial Intellegence related wait events added in 21c are
enq: AI - Seek operation enq: AI - dequeue operation enq: AI - lwm update operation enq: AI - remove subscriber enq: AI - start cross operation enq: AI - stop cross operation enq: AI - truncate operation

Some of the new RAC (cluster class), global cache (cache fusion) block related waits added to 21c are
gc cr block direct read gc current block direct read

Some of the new EDSLib/EBSLib latch waits, which are used to gum the code between RDBMS and Exascale storage added in 21c are given below.
latch: EDSLib File latch: EDSLib Message latch: EDSLib Root latch: EGSLib Root latch: EGSLibDS Root latch: EGSLibDataStore Object latch: EGSLibDataStoreShard Object latch: EGSLibForum Object latch: EGSLibNet Root latch: EGSLibSP Root latch: EGSLibStoragePool Object latch: EGSLibStoragePoolRing Object latch: FOB s.o list parent latch

This is by far the most interesting one, with no name and they seem some sort of free or extra wait events names. I am familiar with few of the other ‘spare’ i.e. “enq: BS – krb spare”, “enq: SP..xx”, “enq: SX.xx.xxx“, but these are different
spare 10 spare 2 spare 3 spare 4 spare 5 spare 6 spare 7 spare 8 spare 9

Couple of new ASM related wait events were added too
enq: AM - ASM Scrubbing enq: AM - ASM used quota calculation

Some of the new enqueue waits on Change Tracking file are
enq: CT - CTWR DBA buffer resize enq: CT - CTWR datafile sync enq: CT - CTWR thread checkpoint

Some of the new enqueue related waits on Exadata Persistent Memory (PMEM)
enq: FF - PMEMfs - ODM enq: FF - PMEMfs - Param enq: FF - PMEMfs - Resize enq: FF - PMEMfs - aXtnd pool enq: FF - PMEMfs - reSze pool

Hope It Helped!

Kafka Java Client for Transactional Event Queues (TEQ), Another great feature added to Oracle 21c …

Posted by FatDBA on November 6, 2022

Hi Guys,

Recently I was testing some advance queuing functions to setup an asynchronous communication (using event queues) between few applications and users on Oracle 21c database, to build a messaging platform. I was looking for a way to connect my client side libraries to allow Kafka APIs to connect to Oracle DB.

I had no clue how to do this integration, and then I came across this official documentation which talks about a new functionality in Oracle Database Version 21c – Kafka Java Client for Transactional Event Queues (TEQ) that enables Kafka application compatibility with Oracle Database. This provides easy migration of Kafka applications to TEQ.

Oracle Transactional Event Queue (TEQ) makes it easy to implement event-based applications. It is also highly integrated with Apache Kafka. Apart from enabling apps that use Kafka APIs to transparently operate on Oracle TEQ, Oracle TEQ also supports bi-directional information flow between TEQ and Kafka, so that changes are available in TEQ or Kafka as soon as possible in near-real-time.

Apache Kafka Connect is a framework included in Apache Kafka that integrates Kafka with other systems. Oracle TEQ will provide standard JMS package and related JDBC, Transaction packages to establish the connection and complete the transactional data flow. Oracle TEQ configures standard Kafka JMS connectors to establish interoperability and complete the data flow between the two messaging systems.

Another great blog post on the topic : https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/21/adque/Kafka_cient_interface_TEQ.html#GUID-94589C97-F323-4607-8C3A-10A0EDF9DA0D

TRANLOGOPTIONS, a crucial performance parameter, Golden Gate 21c, a BUG and a quick workaround …

Posted by FatDBA on October 23, 2022

One of the crucial performance parameter for Golden gate extract process is TRANLOGOPTIONS which controls the way that it interacts with the transaction log. You can use multiple TRANLOGOPTIONS statements in the same parameter file, or you can specify multiple options within the same TRANLOGOPTIONS statement.

There are lot of performance related options i.e. INCLUDEAUX (AUX trails when reading audit trails), DBLOGREADERBUFSIZE etc. that you can use with TRANLOGOPTIONS parameter, but recently I’d tried one of the tuning parameter PERFORMANCEPROFILE with our medium intensity workload. It can be set to HIGH and MEDIUM (default). It helps achieve better performance by grouping the parameters that affect performance. Once the performance profile is set up, this option automatically configures the applicable parameters, to achieve the desired throughput and latency.

We’d used this parameter in one of our 21c (21.7.0) GG installation with TRANLOGOPTIONS PERFORMANCEPROFILE HIGH, but immediately we’d started seeing spikes in extract’s latency. This was might be because it increases the Extract’s read buffer size to 8MB and the rule to purge the extract read buffer is either when the buffer is full or there is no ingress records for 0.2 seconds. Therefore, any uninterrupted workload with Extract consumption rate below 8MB will result in integrated Extract latency to exceed 1 second.

We’d checked with Oracle support and as a quick temporary solution they’d suggested to not use PERFORMANCEPROFILE parameter with HIGH flag, as the Extract consumption/intake rates are below specific value, such as ~15 MB/sec to get ~0.5 second extract response times. Hence we’d set the buffer size to one-third of the redo generation rate in MB/sec to get ~0.3 second maximum Extract latency. They also marked this as Bug 33772499 for GG 21c for July 2022 release.

Hope It Helped!

SUMMARY, my favorite Trace File Analyzer (TFA) command …

Posted by FatDBA on October 16, 2022

Hi Guys,

Trace File Analyzer (TFA) is one of the popular Oracle provided toolkit that is very useful when you are dealing with any ORA error and want to pack incident files or when you want to monitor your database using oratop (now part of tfa), or want to run orachk (part of tfa) for a health check of your entire Oracle software stack for issue detection. It also comes with support tools like OSWatcher, process watcher and darda which we all are very much familiar. Today’s post is about one of my favorite TFA utilities option/flag ‘Summary’ which is not that commonly used, but is one of the cool things that we you can do with the TFA.

For this post I have used TFA version 21.2.0.0.0, I suggest to use latest version as it comes with bug fixes and lot of new features.

Feature : ‘summary‘
This flag/function of TFA provides you a detailed (high level) real time status summary of your full DB system. It collects stats of your CRS, ASM, ACFS, Database, Patching Info, Network, Listeners and Operating System. Once you execute ‘summary’ mode within TFA command line (TFACTL), it will take you to tfactl_summary mode or SUMMARY Command-Line Interface (CLI) from where you can select from multiple options to view component wise statistics. The best part is you can even save the report in the form of HTML page (using option q) which is more fancy and easy to read version, otherwise text based is the default version.

Alright lets get started, I am going to call the ‘summary’ option and will see what is there for us.

Now when all statistics summaries are collected, this will automatically take us to the SUMMARY Command-Line Interface (tfactl_summary>) where if we use ‘list’ option will bring the entire chart of options to choose from (see above all 11 different areas). Next I am going to select option 3 to get ASM_OVERVIEW from tfactl_summary CLI which when selected will further take you to another linked CLI that is tfactl_summary_asmoverview> which will further gives you details of your entire cluster, like in my case I have node machines as a part of this cluster.

So basically the flow will be something like this
tfactl —> Use summary command and enter into tfactl_summary —> Choose option from the list using ‘list’ command and enter into option related CLI (i.e. tfactl_summary_asmoverview>) and choose option or node to view stats.

Please take a look below for better understanding.

You can even save your output into an HTML file which is great for a quick view and very easy to present and transfer too. The option to generate report into HTML format is by calling “summary -overview -html” command within TFACTL and use option ‘q’ to save reports from tfactl_summary> CLI.
Let’s see how to do that.

Differences I have noticed in the Query Block Registry section of an execution plan between Oracle 19c and 21c

Posted by FatDBA on October 10, 2022

Hi Guys,

Todays post is a quick one about the difference that I have noticed in one of the extended execution plan section ‘Query block registry‘ between Oracle 19c (19.8) and Oracle 21c (21.3). I am not going to explain about query blocks etc. here as I’ve already made few blog posts on those topics in the past, this one is about the difference that you will observe between two said database versions for QBR section in execution plans.

First I am going to use the option/flag ‘qbregistry‘ (for Query block registry info) in Oracle database version 19.16, and next will repeat same steps in Oracle 21.3. Query block registy information can also be collect from the 10053 optimizer traces, but I always notice that one’s there in CBO traces are more repetitive that what you see as a concise version through execution plans with ‘qbregistry‘ option.

So, I have already set the playground, for testing purpose, created two sample tables and have written two outer join queries. One for each table. Then combining the results of these using union all.

Considering we have a two SELECT statements, one for each table, internally optimizer has created two query blocks SEL$1 and SEL$2, one for each of the select. Here its using a hint alias name ‘NULL_HALIAS‘, and points to both of the two SELECT statements used in the original query.

Next, lets execute the same statement in Oracle 21c (21.3.0) version and see the difference in QBR section.

Here with 21c (21.3), first thing is its no more coming in the form of an XML, The curious part out of the entire output is the ‘Query Block Registry‘ where the [FINAL] is the transformation that is chosen by the CBO. This assures that time was used on a query block which has been selected for an optimal plan.

That’s it, just a small tidbit this time! 🙂

A cool perl script to generate AWR report time series in any given timeframe …

Posted by FatDBA on October 2, 2022

Hi All,

Recently I was doing an analysis on a slothful database where I had to generate multiple AWR reports to cover almost 12 hours of the problem period. I usually go with few of the SQL scripts or AWR generator tools for my trend analysis, but I was little lucky in making unexpected and fortunate discovery on Metalink, found a cool Doc ID 2857522.1 which explains about an Oracle provided perl script to generate AWR report time series in any given timeframe. The script works with RDBMS 12.1 and later.

The script generates all the AWR reports with [begin snapid:end snapid] equal to [n,n+1] with n falling into a given time interval. The script is very handy and interactive, gives you option to choose between standard Text or HTML format, report type (RAC or Non-RAC type reports). You can call it in both command line or interactive mode.

This script generates a timeseries of awr report for a given database in a awr repository. It connects to database via oracle sid on the db server or via tnsalias. To run the script just execute B . To connect via oracle sid do not specify username password and tnsalias. In order to have sixty minutes time-series reports do not specify frequency if awr snapshot is executed every 60 minutes (default awr setting), set frequency 2 if awr snapshot is executed every 30 mins , 4 if awr snapshot is executed every 15 mins and so on. Leaving frequency blank will generate a series based on the awr snapshot frequency. All reports generated during execution will be saved in dumpdir, if the directory does not exist it will be automatically created.

By default awr reports will be generated in text format. To generate pluggable database awr reports connect to database by specifying username , password and tns alias of the pluggable db.

-- Call perl script awrdmp.pl to run the AWR extraction.
[oracle@fatdba ~]$ perl ./awrdmp.pl 
Enter usrname: - 
Enter password: - 
Enter tnsalias: - 
Enter frequency -
