Automating AWR report Generation

Here is steps for awr report automization.





=========AWR REPORT AUTOMIZATION===========


CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE CreateAwrReports (begin_snap number,end_snap number, directory varchar2 ) as
v_Instance_number v$instance.instance_number%TYPE;
v_Instance_name v$instance.instance_name%TYPE;
v_dbid V$database.dbid%TYPE;
v_file UTL_FILE.file_type;
BEGIN
SELECT instance_number, instance_name into v_Instance_number,v_Instance_name FROM gv$instance ORDER BY 1;
SELECT dbid INTO v_dbid FROM v$database;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE('CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY AWR_DIR AS '''||directory||'''');
BEGIN
v_file := UTL_FILE.fopen('AWR_DIR', 'awr_' || v_Instance_name ||'_'|| v_Instance_number || '_' || begin_snap || '_' || (end_snap-1) || '.txt', 'w', 32767);
FOR c_AWRReport IN (
SELECT output FROM TABLE (DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPOSITORY.AWR_REPORT_TEXT( v_dbid, v_Instance_number, begin_snap,end_snap-1))
) loop
UTL_FILE.PUT_LINE(v_file, c_AWRReport.output); end loop;
UTL_FILE.fclose(v_file);
END;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE('DROP DIRECTORY AWR_DIR');
END;






create or replace procedure generate_awrreport as
begin_snap number;
end_snap number;
begin
select (MAX(SNAP_ID)-1) into begin_snap from dba_hist_snapshot where to_char(BEGIN_INTERVAL_TIME,'HH24') = '10';
select (MAX(SNAP_ID)-1) into end_snap from dba_hist_snapshot where to_char(BEGIN_INTERVAL_TIME,'HH24') = '14';
CreateAwrReports(begin_snap, end_snap,'/export/home/oracle/');
end;
/

Automating ADDM report Generation

Some times we may have a requirement to generate addm report for peak hours every day. Below are the steps , by which we can automate addm reports generation.



1) Create a task in DB.


begin
DBMS_ADVISOR.create_task (
advisor_name => 'ADDM',
task_name => 'ADDM2',
task_desc => 'Addm report generation schedule');
end;
/






2) Create this procedure in database. This procedure can generate awr report for 10:00 AM to 14:00 AM.



create or replace procedure auto_addm as
start_time number;
end_time number;
BEGIN
DBMS_ADVISOR.RESET_TASK(task_name =>'ADDM1');
select (MAX(SNAP_ID)-1) into start_time from dba_hist_snapshot where to_char(BEGIN_INTERVAL_TIME,'HH24') = '10';
select (MAX(SNAP_ID)-1) into end_time from dba_hist_snapshot where to_char(BEGIN_INTERVAL_TIME,'HH24') = '14';
DBMS_ADVISOR.set_task_parameter (
task_name => 'ADDM1',
parameter => 'START_SNAPSHOT',
value => start_time);
DBMS_ADVISOR.set_task_parameter (
task_name => 'ADDM1',
parameter => 'END_SNAPSHOT',
value => end_time);
-- Execute the task.
DBMS_ADVISOR.execute_task(task_name =>'ADDM1');
END auto_addm;
/




3) Schedule the bleow script in crontab.



sqlplus -s '/as sysdba' << EOF
SET LONG 100000
SET PAGESIZE 50000
exec auto_addm;
spool addmrpt.txt
SELECT DBMS_ADVISOR.get_task_report('ADDM1') AS report FROM dual;
spool off;

exit;

EOF
cat addmrpt.txt |mailx -s "ADDMREPORT For TODAY" "MAIL-ID"

Steps for Configuring DATAGUARD in Oracle 11g

DATAGUARD CONFIGURATION STEPS:-

Environment
Primary Database DB_UNIQUE_NAME: ORCL
Standby Database DB_UNIQUE_NAME: ORCL_DTGD
ORACLE_SID: ORCL

STEPS:-
1. Enable Force Logging on the Primary database

SQL> alter database force logging;

2. Create password file on Primary database.
3. Create listener.ora,tnsnames.ora on standby database.
LISTENER/TNS FOR PRIMARY DATABASE:-
LISTENERORCL=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=10.0.7.115)(PORT=1521))
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(KEY=extproc))))
SID_LIST_LISTENERORCL=
(SID_LIST=
(SID_DESC=
(GLOBAL_DBNAME=ORCL)
(ORACLE_HOME=/data/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME=ORCL))
(SID_DESC=
(GLOBAL_DBNAME=ORCL_DGMGRL)
(ORACLE_HOME=/data/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME=ORCL))
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=plsextproc)
(ORACLE_HOME=/data/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
(PROGRAM=extproc)))


ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.0.7.115)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SID = ORCL)
)
)

LISTENER/TNS FOR STANDBY DATABASE:-

ORCL_DTGD=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=10.0.7.116)(PORT=1521))
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(KEY=extproc))))
SID_LIST_ORCL_DTGD=
(SID_LIST=
(SID_DESC=
(GLOBAL_DBNAME=ORCL_DTGD)
(ORACLE_HOME=/data/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME=ORCL_DTGD))
(SID_DESC=
(GLOBAL_DBNAME=ORCL_DTGD_DGMGRL)
(ORACLE_HOME=/data/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME=ORCL_DTGD))
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=plsextproc)
(ORACLE_HOME=/data/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
(PROGRAM=extproc)))


ORCL_DTGD =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.0.7.116)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SID = ORCL_DTGD)
)
)

4. Create password file for standby database.
$orapwd file-orapw$ORACLE_SID password= force=y entries=10
5. Copy the password file of standby database on primary server and vice-versa.
6. Add the tns entry of primary server to standby server and vice-versa.
Now we should be albe to login on remote database using tns service name.


Note - ensure that the same password is used as the one used while creating the password file on the Primary host
7. Create a "scratch" init.ora file on the Standby host with just a single parameter

"initORCL_DTGD.ora" [New file]
DB_NAME=ORCL
DB_UNIQUE_NAME=ORCL_DTGD
Audit_file_dest=’’
Background_file_dest=’’


8. Create the required directories on the Standby host as mentioned in pfile.
9. Start standby database using pfile in nomount state.

On Primary database:

10. On the primary server, connect to Primary database(ORCL) as target and standby database(ORCL_DTGD) as auxiliary.
bash-3.00$ rman target sys/sys@ORCL auxiliary sys/sys@ORCL_DTGD

Oracle Binary Cloning

Install Oracle Server from Previous Installation using Bindary Cloning.

1. Tar or copy the existing installation to be used:
tar cvf .tar
2. Untar or copy the existing installation to $HOME/ ( should be the full
version including patch level (for example, 10.2.0.1):
tar xvf .tar
3. Remove the following files and directories from the copy:
• *.log
• *.dbf
• Listener.ora
• Sqlnet.ora
• Tnsnames.ora
• $ORACLE_HOME/_
• $ORACLE_HOME/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole__
4. Use the Oracle Universal Installer to clone the existing installation into the inventory:
$HOME/oui/install/runInstaller \
-clone ORACLE_HOME= \
ORACLE_HOME_NAME=""
Tip: ORACLE_HOME can be attached and detached from the central Oracle inventory using:
• runInstaller -attachHome ORACLE_HOME=
ORACLE_HOME_NAME=

Changing datatype for a table column in oracle

1.)Check For any constraints on that table:-

select constraint_name , constraint_type from user_constraints where table_name='XXXX';

2.)Drop that constraint after taking the backup of DDL.

select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('CONSTRAINT','XXXX','SCHEMA_NAME') from dual;


3.)Adding Temporary column with new datatype:-

alter table XXXXX add (REFERENCE_TXN_ID_TEMP VARCHAR2(51));

4.)Copy existing column data to new temp column:-

update table XXXXXX set REFERENCE_TXN_ID_TEMP=REFERENCE_TXN_ID;
commit;

5.)Mark existing column as Unused:-

alter table XXXXX set unused column REFERENCE_TXN_ID;

6.)Rename Temp Column to Original Column:-

alter table XXXXX rename column REFERENCE_TXN_ID_TEMP to REFERENCE_TXN_ID;

7.)Drop Un-used Column:-

alter table drop unused column;
