Tips to install Oracle 11gr2 RAC on AIX (6.1/7.1)

AIX is like an Unix environment awesome original, same to HP-Unix, and, if you have a plan to install Oracle RAC, you need to pay attention. I note some tips in this article to help.

1. Checking Operating System Packages

# lslpp -l bos.adt.base bos.adt.lib bos.adt.libm bos.perf.libperfstat 
bos.perf.perfstat bos.perf.proctools rsct.basic.rte rsct.compat.clients.rte 
xlC.aix61.rte

If not, install on AIX source by smity. It's easy, but remember, some packaged requires your IBM's account to download.

2. Verify UDP and TCP Kernel Parameters

# /usr/sbin/no -a | fgrep ephemeral

If you expect your workload to require a high number of ephemeral ports, then update
the UDP and TCP ephemeral port range to a broader range. For example:

# /usr/sbin/no -p -o tcp_ephemeral_low=9000 -o tcp_ephemeral_high=65500
# /usr/sbin/no -p -o udp_ephemeral_low=9000 -o udp_ephemeral_high=65500

3. Checking Resource Limits:
To ensure that these resource limits are honored, confirm that the line login
session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix is set in /etc/pam.conf.For example:

dtsession auth required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
dtlogin session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
ftp session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
imap session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
login session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
rexec session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
rlogin session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
rsh session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
snapp session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
su session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
swrole session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
telnet session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
xdm session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
OTHER session required /usr/lib/security/pam_prohibit
websm_rlogin session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
websm_su session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix
wbem session required /usr/lib/security/pam_aix

4. Tuning AIX System Environment
Confirm the aio_maxreqs value using the procedure for your release:
AIX 6.1 and 7.1:

# ioo -o aio_maxreqs
aio_maxreqs = 65536

The aio is Asynchronous Input Output is an exciting parameter, I tried to control and modified it many times, but it's strongly to do from Oracle advices,

Quote:

Adjust the initial value of aio_maxservers to 10 times the number of logical disks divided by the number of CPUs that are to be used concurrently but no more than 80

Oracle document refer: https://docs.oracle.com/database/121/AXDBI/app_manual.htm#AXDBI7880

5. Tuning Virtual Memory Manager

vmo -p -o minperm%=3
vmo -p -o maxperm%=90
vmo -p -o maxclient%=90
vmo -p -o lru_file_repage=0
vmo -p -o strict_maxclient=1
vmo -p -o strict_maxperm=0

Note: You must restart the system for these changes to take effect

6. Increase System block size allocation

# /usr/sbin/chdev -l sys0 -a ncargs='128'

7. Configure SSH LoginGraceTime Parameter
On AIX systems, the OpenSSH parameter LoginGraceTime by default is commented
out, and the default behavior of OpenSSH on AIX can sometimes result in timeout
errors. To avoid these errors, complete the following procedure:
7.1. Log in as root.
7.2. Using a text editor, open the OpenSSH configuration file /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
7.3. Locate the comment line #LoginGraceTime 2m.
7.4. Uncomment the line, and change the value to 0 (unlimited). For example:
LoginGraceTime 0
7.5. Save /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
7.6. Restart SSH.

8. Setting priviledge to Oracle ASM Luns
Same to Solaris, HP-Unix. Remember, when you've got failure of ASM configuration, you need to flush out the disk's slice/partition by OS command "dd". And the slice/partition/LUN allocated from storage to IBM, has got different first alphabet to other platform. The alphabet begins by "r", example:

7.1 ORC and Voting disk
# chown grid:asmadmin /dev/rhdisk5 -> OCR
# chmod 660 /dev/rhdisk5 
# chown grid:asmadmin /dev/rhdisk6 -> Voting Disk
# chmod 660 /dev/rhdisk6
7.2 Datafile, Archivelog and Backup 
# chown grid:asmadmin /dev/rhdisk2
# chmod 660 /dev/rhdisk2
# chown grid:asmadmin /dev/rhdisk3
# chmod 660 /dev/rhdisk3
# chown grid:asmadmin /dev/rhdisk4
# chmod 660 /dev/rhdisk4
# chown grid:asmadmin /dev/rhdisk9
# chmod 660 /dev/rhdisk9
# chown grid:asmadmin /dev/rhdisk10
# chmod 660 /dev/rhdisk10

9. Enable simultaneous access to a disk device from multiple nodes
To enable simultaneous access to a disk device from multiple nodes, you must set the appropriate Object Data Manager (ODM) attribute, depending on the type of reserve attribute used by your disks. The following section describes how to perform this task using hdisk logical names

8.1. determine the reserve setting your disks use, enter the following command,where n is the hdisk device number

# lsattr -E -l hdiskn | grep reserve_

The response is either a reserve_lock setting, or a reserve_policy setting. If the attribute is reserve_lock, then ensure that the setting is reserve_lock = no. If the attribute is reserve_policy, then ensure that the setting is reserve_policy = no_reserve.

8.2. If necessary, change the setting with the chdev command using the following syntax, where n is the hdisk device number:

chdev -l hdiskn -a [ reserve_lock=no | reserve_policy=no_reserve ]

For example:
# chdev -l hdisk5 -a reserve_lock=no
# chdev -l hdisk5 -a reserve_policy=no_reserve

8.3. Enter commands similar to the following on any node to clear the PVID from each disk device that you want to use:

# /usr/sbin/chdev -l hdiskn -a pv=clear

When you are installing Oracle Clusterware, you must enter the paths to the appropriate device files when prompted for the path of the OCR and Oracle Clusterware voting disk. For example: /dev/rhdisk10

9.Configure Shell Limits
9.1. Add the following lines to the /etc/security/limits file:

default:
fsize = -1
core = 2097151
cpu = -1
data = -1
rss = -1
stack = -1
nofiles = -1

9.2.Enter the following command to list the current setting for the maximum number of process allowed by the Oracle software user:

/usr/sbin/lsattr -E -l sys0 -a maxuproc

If necessary, change the maxuproc setting using the following command:

/usr/sbin/chdev -l sys0 -a maxuproc=16384

10. Configure User Process Parameters (Verify that the maximum number of processes allowed for each user is set to 2048 or greater)
Enter the following command:

# smit chgsys

Verify that the value shown for Maximum number of PROCESSES allowed for each user is greater than or equal to 2048. If necessary, edit the existing value.
When you have finished making changes, press Enter, then Esc+0 (Exit) to exit.

11. Configure Network Tuning Parameters:
To check the current values of the network tuning parameters:

# no -a | more

If the system is running in compatibility mode, then follow these steps to change the parameter values:

Enter commands similar to the following to change the value of each parameter:

# no -o parameter_name=value

For example:

# no -o udp_recvspace=655360

Add entries similar to the following to the /etc/rc.net file for each parameter that you changed in the previous step:

if [ -f /usr/sbin/no ] ; then
/usr/sbin/no -o udp_sendspace=65536
/usr/sbin/no -o udp_recvspace=655360
/usr/sbin/no -o tcp_sendspace=65536
/usr/sbin/no -o tcp_recvspace=65536
/usr/sbin/no -o rfc1323=1
/usr/sbin/no -o sb_max=4194304
/usr/sbin/no -o ipqmaxlen=512
fi

For the ISNO parameter tcp_sendspace, use the following command to set it:

# ifconfig en0 tcp_sendspace 65536

By adding these lines to the /etc/rc.net file, the values persist when the system restarts.

12. Automatic SSH configuration
By default, OUI searches for SSH public keys in the directory /usr/local/etc/, and ssh-keygen binaries in /usr/local/bin. However, on AIX, SSH public keys typically are located in the path /etc/ssh, and ssh-keygen binaries are located in the path /usr/bin. To ensure that OUI can set up SSH, use the following command to create soft links:

# ln -s /etc/ssh /usr/local/etc
# ln -s /usr/bin /usr/local/bin

In rare cases, Oracle Clusterware installation may fail during the "AttachHome" operation when the remote node closes the SSH connection. To avoid this problem, set the following parameter in the SSH daemon configuration file /etc/ssh/sshd_config on all cluster nodes to set the timeout wait to unlimited:

LoginGraceTime 0

13. Shell Limit
Adding these line in /etc/security/limits

default:
fsize = -1
core = 2097151
cpu = -1
data = -1
rss = -1
stack = -1
nofiles = -1

14. Create groups and users

# mkgroup -'A' id='1000' adms='root' oinstall
# mkgroup -'A' id='1031' adms='root' dba
# mkgroup -'A' id='1032' adms='root' oper
# mkgroup -'A' id='1020' adms='root' asmadmin
# mkgroup -'A' id='1022' adms='root' asmoper
# mkgroup -'A' id='1021' adms='root' asmdba
# mkuser id='1100' pgrp='oinstall' groups='dba,asmadmin,asmoper,asmdba' home='/portalgrid/grid' grid
# mkuser id='1101' pgrp='oinstall' groups='dba,oper,asmdba' home='/portaloracle/oracle' oracle

# mkdir -p /portalapp/app/11.2.0/grid
# mkdir -p /portalapp/app/grid
# mkdir -p /portalapp/app/oracle

# chown grid:oinstall /portalapp/app/11.2.0/grid <- GRID_HOME
# chown grid:oinstall /portalapp/app/grid <- GRID_BASE (ORACLE_BASE for Grid user)
# chown -R grid:oinstall /portalapp
# chown oracle:oinstall /portalapp/app/oracle
# chmod -R 775 /portalapp/

15. Setting the profile
15.1. Grid Profile

export TEMP=/tmp
export TMP=/tmp
export TMPDIR=/tmp
umask 022

export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=portal1
export ORACLE_BASE=/portalapp/app/grid
export ORACLE_HOME=/portalapp/app/11.2.0/grid
export GRID_HOME=/portalapp/app/11.2.0/grid
export CRS_HOME=/portalapp/app/11.2.0/grid
export ORACLE_SID=+ASM1

export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib

16. Prevent Xserver does not display correct term

# startsrc -x

17. Create the following softlink needed for some Oracle utilites

# ln -s /usr/sbin/lsattr /etc/lsattr

To check existing capabilities, enter the following command as root; in this example,
the Grid installation user account is grid:

# /usr/bin/lsuser -a capabilities grid

To add capabilities, enter a command similar to the following:

# /usr/bin/chuser capabilities=CAP_NUMA_ATTACH,CAP_BYPASS_RAC_VMM,CAP_PROPAGATE grid

18. Remember to run the Installation fixup scripts

$ ./runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -n node -fixup -verbose

With Oracle Clusterware 11g release 2, Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) detects when the minimum requirements for an installation are not met, and creates shell scripts,
called fixup scripts, to finish incomplete system configuration steps. If OUI detects an incomplete task, then it generates fixup scripts (runfixup.sh). You can run the fixup script after you click the Fix and Check Again Button.

19. In the installation progressing, when root.sh at node 2, can the error such as "CRS appear in node 1, did not attemp to stop cluster, re-join cluster, by pass and continue installation.
- If Xterm did not occur, then do: $ export ORACLE_TERM=dtterm
- Manually export ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME when make an installation before running runInstaller.sh
- If /tmp is too small <500MB, then make a private directory point to other directory, change owner to grid, oracle user, example:

A. Grid

# cd /portallog
# mkdir /portallog/tmp
# chown -R grid:oinstall /portallog/tmp

B. Oracle

# cd /portal
# mkdir tmp
# chown -R oracle:dba /portal/tmp 

C. Export

# export TMP=/portallog/tmp
# export TEMPDIR=/portallog/tmp
# export TMPDIR=/portallog/tmp

Hope this help.
End.

NIP Friday #15 ...


This week’s photo's are an extension of the last installment of Nude In Public Friday. They were taken on the same day, just a little farther down the road.
I'll leave the possible captions for the pictures up to you... hee hee!

I've received a lot of email in response to my "Pop Machine" photo from a few weeks ago.



I would say that it was the most popular Nude In Public Friday so far! For those who have asked, yes, there are more hotel pictures and I'll be sharing them over the next few weeks.






ip

NIP Friday #16 ...

Well, it's the end of the week and time again for Nude In Public Friday.
This weeks picture was taken during an evening of flashing a little over a year ago in Denver's North Cherry Creek area.

I think most women, at one time or another, have either performed a quick boob flash in an elevator or have at least been tempted to. I mean it's exciting.There you are in public and all of a sudden you have few moments of privacy to go a little crazy. Add to this the excitement of the possibility of being caught should the elevator doors open, and you can really see why elevators play into so many fantasies .

I've had my share of experiences in elevators and it would be fair to say that I've went down more often than I've gone up in them.





ip

NIP Friday #17 ...

I picked this week’s picture for Nude In Public Friday for one reason... it reminded me of the warm summer evening that it was taken. Why do I find this so appealing you may ask? Four inches of fucking snow on May 1st, that's the reason! I awoke yesterday to the snow. I had to drive to a meeting in Castle Rock in it and got stuck in an hour long jam on the way back... Colorado weather, you've got to love it.


If my memory doesn't fail me, this picture was taken last summer on our way to dinner up in Longmont. It was warm, I was horny and I thought that I would show some boobage. I certainly didn't feel that way yesterday.





ip

NIP Friday #18 ...

This is the 18th installment of Nude In Public Friday and I've received a lot of positive feedback so far. Out of the previous 17 NIP posts, the two most popular seem to have been the hotel pop machine and elevator pictures.


I suspect that there's some kind of freudian correlation between my tits and the machines going on here, all I know is that I've received more email from those two posts, than all the rest combined.

Most of them wanted to know if I had more of these photo's and would I post them. In an attempt to fulfill these requests, I'll be posting a few more from those two occasions over the next couple of weeks.





ip

NIP Sunday #19 ...


Yes, I know that it's normally NIP Friday, but do to circumstances beyond my control, it's just going to have to be NIP Sunday this week.
As promised, here is another of the " Pepsi machine " photos that Rick took of me at the hotel earlier this year.
When I think about it, I've taken quite a few pictures around pop and other types of vending machines in the past.
I also remember a few occasions doing a lot more than just posing around them...
I had wanted a Mountain Dew but the damned machine gave me a Dr. Pepper. Which reminds me of that old and extremely bad joke, "Why does Dr. Pepper come in a bottle?" ... ... "Because his wife died." *** groan ***






ip

NIP #20 Sunday... The Move

This is the second week in a row that NIP Friday is being posted on Sunday. Lately my schedule on Friday has just been insane. It also appears that it won't be improving any time soon either. So, to simplify things, I've decided to just go ahead and change it from NIP Fridays to NIP Sundays.
Only the day has changed. Everything else, including the boobs, nudity and public settings will all remain the same.





ip

NIP Sunday #21 ...

This weeks Nude in Public Sunday #21, fulfills my earlier promise to post more pop machine shots. I'm surprised at how popular these have been. These were a little trickier because I decided to run down the hall buck naked. I can only imagine what people saw through their "peep holes". They were really fun to do.
In case you were wondering, I was prepared to hide behind the ice machine if need be! Then again, it's the idea of getting caught that makes it such a turn on.





ip

NIP Sunday #22 ...

There are aspects of summer that I truly adore. The ability to go out and expose myself without frost bitten nipples is one of them. I also like summer nights, a lot! I love the feeling of being naked under the moon and stars.
Last weekend we went to a party at a friend's house in Colorado Springs.
I knew that we had a long drive back home and I also knew the perfect quiet spot to have sex just off of highway 105 in Douglas County. It was really warm and I was very horny.




I couldn't wait to get to the 4x4 to shed some clothes.
These shots were taken just prior to grabbing a blanket and getting out to get laid.
There is something about hot summer nights that really get my juices going... and going... and going!





ip

Frosty Nipples... Again

We had our first snow here last night, and as any long term reader of my blog knows, that means it's time for my annual " Frosty Nipples " rant.
It wasn't a lot of snow at all, but the temp did drop enough to bring on my annual episode of nipple shock. It occurred this morning when I ran out to the car to get some papers that I needed. Moments after stepping through the door, a blast of cold, damp air blew down my robe and straight to my nips. They went from their happy and supple warm weather state to their cold weather, rock hard state in a blink of an eye. Now let me clarify this. I'm not talking about the horny, sensitive, I want you to suck them, erect, rock hard type. No, I'm mean the ouch, that hurts, stay away, over sensitive, rock hard type.
The good thing is, I'll acclimate within a week or so, and go into winter nipple mode. Until then I'll just have to keep my outdoor tit flashing to a minimum. Oh, the joy of nipples.

McCain Attacks Bloggers, Sinks Ship with Loose Lips

That's no easy feat even for an old navy man such as John McCain. He says bloggers are old enough to fight his damn wars but not enough to speak our mind.

Think Progress notes McCain's attack on the blogosphere:

When I was a young man, I was quite infatuated with self-expression, and rightly so because, if memory conveniently serves, I was so much more eloquent, well-informed, and wiser than anyone else I knew. It seemed I understood the world and the purpose of life so much more profoundly than most people. I believed that to be especially true with many of my elders, people whose only accomplishment, as far as I could tell, was that they had been born before me, and, consequently, had suffered some number of years deprived of my insights…It’s a pity that there wasn’t a blogosphere then. I would have felt very much at home in the medium.
Damn the torpedoes and full steam ahead. I think we've just been broadsided matey.

Very wittily said John, but all you've accomplished is to demonstrate your ignorance of the Blogosphere. If you only knew how old I really am (but don't you dare ask).

So I guess we've all been told. So much for freedom of speech. Maybe we should put an age limit on it. Now there's an idea for you John. There outta be a law.
In 2000, John McCain called Rev. Jerry Falwell an “agent of intolerance.” Yesterday, in a naked attempt to broaden his political base, McCain delivered the commencement speech at Falwell’s Liberty University. McCain’s hypocrisy was noted on many blogs. He returned the favor in his speech at Liberty by attacking the blogosphere.
A commentor also noted:
McCain’s lurch to the right begs the following question: Could it be possible that Republicans are also saddled with shitty consultants?
Psst... here's a dirtly little secret. McCain's a mole. So now you know.

FeedBlitz eMail Subscription Service:

We've moved our newsletter email subscription service over to FeedBlitz. Don't worry, FeedBlitz made the migration process painless, so if you already have a subscription there's nothing more you have to do. You will still receive our newsletter every day.

So why would you want to subscribe to our email newsletter? And is it safe? Read the FeedBlitz faq to find the answer.

Why the switch from Bloglet? Well, for starters Bloglet hasn't worked most of this past year. Emails go unanswered and it looks like the owner's heart isn't into maintaining it any longer. We appreciate the service all these years but it's time to move on.

FeedBurner has also partnered with FeedBlitz, and if it's good enough for them then it's good enough for me. FeedBlitz offers superior service and features, so for us the move was a no brainer.

The Flying Monkeys Made Me Do It Jr. Zipper Hoodie

This Jr. Zip-Up Hooded Sweatshirt lets everyone know whose fault it really was, the flying monkeys made you do it - It's absolutely true. It's not really your fault. In fact, even though you were the one that actually did do it, it still isn't your fault at all. Of course you shouldn't take responsibility for what happened, you just couldn't help yourself. But, first and foremost when you do get blamed, make sure you point the blame in the right direction. It's not the dog's fault nor is it the fault of the voices in your head that you have been listening too, nor was it the ghost of Elvis, and the devil definitely didn't make you do it either. Certainly, that can only leave one option left, the ones that are truly behind it all, the flying monkeys. That's absolutely right. It was the flying monkeys that made you do it. Now is your chance to fianlly reveal the truth of who's really behind it all.

H.323: IPv4 to IPv6 migration

Many networks are migrating from IPv4 to IPv6. What can you do if still have H.323 endpoints that only support IPv4 ?

The GNU Gatekeeper can translate IPv4 into IPv6 calls and vice versa.
You can use one GnuGk to IPv6 enable all of your existing IPv4 endpoints.


 


 

All you have to do is enable IPv6 in your configuration and GnuGk will automatically
detect the connection type of your endpoints and convert the call.

All it takes is one switch in your config:

For many years I worked in palliative care. My patients were those who had gone home to die. Some incredibly special times were shared. I was with them for the last three to twelve weeks of their lives.

People grow a lot when they…

Workaround for IP Locator and Safari 3 beta

Safari 3 beta breaks widgets that use the search history feature of search input field types. I have put together a version of IP Locator with that feature disabled for anyone who wants to continue using it with the broken version of Safari. You can download it here. A bug has been filed with Apple and I suspect this will be a fairly high priority fix considering how many Dashboard widgets are affected.

IP Locator Status

A few of you, loyal IP Locator users, have written to let me know that the widget is not working. IP Locator gets its geolocation information from DNSStuff.com. It appears that DNSStuff.com has moved to a subscription model for most of its services. I have written to R. Scott Perry, the owner of the site and asked him what is to become of IP Locator in light of this change. Scott and I have enjoyed a good working relationship since I approached him 2 years ago and asked if he would like to collaborate on the widget. I will post an update here as soon as I know more. Thanks for your understanding. –Andrew

Through the magic of geolocation, IP Locator takes that mysterious IP address and tells you where that hit to your web site (or intruder on your network!) resides.

Trump's Draft Evader Precipice


The United States is hovering at a precarious point in our history.  The choice is to either go forward with moral clarity or succumb to our violent past with symptoms of racism, xenophobia, nativism, sexism, misogyny, ageism, anti-Veterans, anti-American values and more.

Unfortunately, the party of Lincoln is wracked with dangerous splits with the only common factors being racism, sexism, equivocations and presidential obstruction.  Party vision extends only to the present and disregards past lessons to integrate with the future.  The most important factors seem to be hindering the President, haranguing Hillary Clinton and uttering senseless statements.

Presumptive presidential candidate Donald John Trump spouts a litany of offensive equivocations, governmental and global ignorance, and flirtation with right wing racism and anti-Semitism.  His attacks on people of color, Judaism, women and Muslims seem to evolve from the same extremist philosophy; and a misguided plan to generate support from a base believing the same.

Trump’s early life shows incorrigibility with parental sentence of military school beginning at age twelve. The next six years were spent with a heavy program of military ethics, duty and honor. He seems to have rebelled against these and has displayed questionable patriotism, respect for the fallen and ignorance of American values.

Reaching the age of eighteen meant Selective Service registration and Trump was no exception. Following indicates his draft history:

            2-S school exemption                   7/28/64
            2-S school exemption                   12/14/65
            1-A induction eligible                   11/22/66
            2-S school exemption                   12/13/66
            2-S school exemption                   1/16/68
            1-A induction eligible                    7/9/68
            1-Y not eligible                               10/15/68

Trump passed his military physical examination on 12/15/66 with no indication of any disqualifying conditions. He received two successive exemptions for college, but faced a Fortunate Son dilemma due to the Vietnam War heating up. Trump was briefly eligible for entry beginning on 11/22/66, but was able to achieve more 2-S deferments until July, 1968. He now faced the realistic expectation of military service since there were no more college exemptions to be had.  The Vietnam War was at its apex following the Tet Offensive in late January, 1968, and troop strength was over 500,000.  Trump underwent another service physical on 9/17/68 presenting a private physician letter attesting to a diagnosis of bone heel spurs.  Young Trump was given an exemption of 1-Y, not eligible for induction except in time of national emergency or declared war. This seems odd since the young man participated in athletics at the military academy and secondly, the US was in dire need of more military manpower to fight the war.  Subsequently, many young men were inducted into with minor medical or psychological issues to fill the rolls. Bone heel spurs were not necessarily disqualifying since men were being accepted with flat feet, a more debilitating condition.  The only other factor to take into consideration is relatively simple-he was the son of a millionaire thus in today’s parlance, affluenza.  Trump later bragged his condition was not painful and temporary thus negating the 1-Y rating given and proving his Fortunate Son status.  He also stated his personal Vietnam was partying and bedding beautiful women with a developing fear of venereal disease. Donnie has refused to discuss the draft subject during the campaign rebuffing all questions. One can only ponder the fate of those who took his place in the draft.
