sql mirror witness disconnected

The witness sqlserver sometime get disconnected, reboot it sometime fix the problem, if not, reset witness is required, here is how.

to find out how many databases are using this witness, run query on witness:

SELECT principal_server_name, mirror_server_name, database_name, safety_level_desc
FROM sys.database_mirroring_witnesses

to find out which server is disconnected, run this sql on the principle server:

select mirroring_partner_name,mirroring_partner_name,mirroring_witness_name, mirroring_state_desc,mirroring_witness_state_desc, * from sys.database_mirroring

if the mirroring_witness_state_desc = disconnected, then remove the witness by running the following script. let's refer this list as $DBLIST.

on witness:

select 'alter database '+database_name+' set witness off' FROM sys.database_mirroring_witnesses

pickup the output that matching $DBLIST and save the output as o1.sql.

select 'alter database '+database_name+' set witness ='+'''TCP://REPLACETHISSERVERNAME:REPLACETHISPORTNUMBER''' FROM sys.database_mirroring_witnesses

pickup the output that matching $DBLIST and save the output as o2.sql.

restart witness sqlserver service, and reset the witness by running o1.sql and o2.sql on principle. if the o2.sql fail, we need to re-run it or even restart the witness db service.

then check the status again by running the following sql on principle server, now the mirroring_witness_state_desc should show "connected".

select mirroring_partner_name,mirroring_partner_name,mirroring_witness_name, mirroring_state_desc,mirroring_witness_state_desc, * from sys.database_mirroring

Opatch apply/lsinventory error: oneoff is corrupted or does not exist

I am applying the quarterly patch for 19c RDBMS, I tried using napply but failed, but somehow it corrupted the inventory though nothing applied. further apply and lsinventory command ran into error like this: $ ./OPatch/opatch lsinventory Oracle Interim Patch Installer version 12.2.0.1.21 Copyright (c) 2020, Oracle Corporation.  All rights reserved.

oracle dba_hist_sysmetric_summary

found this blog is helpful to get CPU and IO statistics on oracle database. http://shob-dbadmin.blogspot.ca/2012/12/how-to-find-total-io-of-database.html courtesy to  Shomil Bansal , below are hist writing, not mine. How to find total IO of the database instance Total IO of database instance is sum of the physical reads, physical writes and redo writes. There are several views to find these values. v$sysmetric  - Reports metric values for only the most current time sample 60 secs. v$sysmetric_summary  - Reports metric values for time sample of 1 hour. v$sysmetric_history  - Reports metric values every 60 sec from the time instance is up. Better way to analyse IO using this view to take deltas between two time periods. dba_hist_sysmetric_history  - All the above views are refreshed when the instance is restarted. This view, part of AWR, stores the historical stats. I have used this view for my report. Query: ====== set lines 350...

Oracle ASM DISK IO performance

Oracle OEM show a chart of disk performance, as shown in the chart below. when the OEM target database is 10gr2, the number of average disk response time (ms) is 0.01 ms, which unreasonable low. when the target database is 11gr2, the number is about 10ms, which I think is reasonable. it's time to find out where the discrepency comes from. The backend query is this one: set linesize 200 col name format a9 col path format a19 --col MB_per_sec format select t3.name,t2.name,t2.path,t2.reads,t2.read_time,round(t2.read_time/t2.reads*1000,3) rd_rspd_ms,t2.writes,round(t2.write_time/t2.writes*1000,3) wr_rspd_ms, round((t2.read_time+t2.write_time)/(t2.reads+t2.writes)*1000,3) dsk_rspd_ms,round((t2.bytes_read+t2.bytes_written)/1024/1024/(t2.read_time+t2.write_time))  MB_per_sec from V$asm_disk t2, v$asm_diskgroup t3 where t3.group_number=t2.group_number order by 1,2 / NAME      NAME      PATH               ...
