Provisioning

09-07-2009 23

Introduction - Provisioning

• In general, provisioning means "providing"

or making something available. The term

is used in a variety of contexts in IT. For

example, in grid computing, to provision is

to activate a grid component, such as a

server, array, or switch, so that it is

available for use...

Internet – What is?

09-07-2009 24


• Management perspective:

– Reduction of complexity

• Task automation

• Every time exact same sequence of actions…

• Standardization

– Reduction of costs

• DBO

• Less training

– Time to market

09-07-2009 25


– Time to market

• Less time needed to have infrastructure available

• Have a fully configured database cluster

– In hours instead of days / weeks

• Managers just love it … ;-)

– Increase of quality

• Availability

09-07-2009 26


• Another one for Management...

– Oracle Enterprise Manager Delivers 124%

ROI

– An independent multi-customer study

conducted by Forrester Consulting reveals

customers gain significant benefits and cost

savings from OEM Configuration

Management Pack and OEM Provisioning

and Patch Automation Pack…

09-07-2009 27


• The sample organization in Forrester

Consulting's study shows (over 3 years):

– Positive 124% ($4,916,781) return on

investment (ROI)

– 20% ($862,500) reduction in capital spending

on servers

– Business productivity savings of $2,555,556

from a reduction in system downtime

avoidance and a corresponding increase in

availability.

Provisioning - CRS / ASM / DB

• After Server is provisioned with OS and

Agent

– Bare Metal Provisioning (Linux)

• Provisioning of

– Clusterware software + configuration

– ASM software + ASM Instance creation

– DB software (Creation of starter database

provided)

09-07-2009 56

09-07-2009 57


• Using Clones / Golden Images from SW

Library:

– To standardize

– To work with Baselines

– As part of Release Management

09-07-2009 58


• Baseline Examples:

– Baseline 1

• CRS 11.1.0.7

• ASM 11.1.0.7

• DB 10.2.0.4

– Baseline 2

• CRS 11.1.0.7

• ASM 11.1.0.7

• DB 11.1.0.7

Out of Box – DP Procedure

• We don’t use Create Starter Database

(See next slide)

• We use a separate DP Procedure for this

– Create RAC Database on configured Stack

6209-07-2009

6309-07-2009

• ASM Disk String

– No use of wildcards (OEM 10.2.0.4)

• Fixed in OEM 10.2.0.5

Provisioning – Create RAC Database

• Out of Box

– Single Instance Database creation

– No RAC Database creation

• OK, included in Oracle Clusterware / RAC

Provisioning

• Not a usable scenario

• Need to create your own

09-07-2009 71


• Create a custom Deployment Procedure

– Based on Patching Oracle Database

• Type 2

09-07-2009 72


• Possible Use Case

– Create RAC Database

• 1..n Instances on 1..n nodes in Cluster

– Create entries in OMS

– Include in monitoring Groups

– Include in Role

– Create RAC Services

– Register entries in OID

• Database, Instances, RAC Services

09-07-2009 73


• Possible Use Case (Continue)

– Application of Monitoring Templates

• No need to in 10.2.0.5 (Default Templates)

– Configure Tape Backup

– Perform 1st Backup

– Etc.

Provisioning – Remove RAC Database

• No Out of Box procedure available

• So, need to create your own

• Based on Patching Oracle Database

procedure

– Type 2

09-07-2009 87


• Remove entries from OMS

– EMCLI

• Remove the database

– DBCA

• Remove files

– $ORACLE_HOME/dbs

• Remove entry from /etc/oratab

09-07-2009 88


• Remove files from ASM (DBCA won’t

delete all)

• Etc.

Provisioning – Other useable procedures

09-07-2009 98

• One Click Extend Cluster Database

– Rather have Extend Cluster

– Need to use dummy Database for this

– Include 1..n servers in cluster

– Installs

• CRS + Re-configuration

• ASM + Instance creation

• DB + Instance creation (dummy)

Provisioning – Other useable procedures

09-07-2009 99

• Delete/Scale down Oracle RAC

– Removes instance

– Removes server from cluster

Provisioning – Wrap up

• Out of Box Procedures

– Can do the job in some Use Cases

– A good base to start customizing

• Customize Procedures

– Based on Patching Oracle Database

• Most flexible but still limitations

– Anything can be done

09-07-2009 100


• Perl

– Multi Platform

– Need to train your staff

• Standardization

– Baselines

• Task automation

09-07-2009 101


• Reduction of

– Costs

– Complexity

– Time to Market

09-07-2009 102


• Start thinking about:

– Training

– Organization

– Lifecycle

– Change of DBA Job description…?

09-07-2009 103


• Easy to start working with?

– Working with 10.2.0.4?

• Start upgrading to 10.2.0.5

– 10.2.0.5

• Major improvements

– Documentation

• Still a problem

• But improving!

09-07-2009 104


• Easy to start working with? (Continued)

– Start getting Out of Box procedures to work

• Should not be a problem

– Next, start doing customization

– Take a good training

• 5-Hart

• Oracle University

• Zoeteweij Consulting ;-)
