ASM SGA sizing
The query from customer DBA :
" Hello,
We plan to install X TB database .. I didn't find the rule for ASM SGA sizing.
What values i need to set for the ASM instance:
sga_max_size =
sga_target = ? "
I found the note 437924.1 and
the only source in the documentation, which point to the ASM sga sizing:
So, for example, for 1T database with Normal redundancy customer have to yield 24-25 MB of ASM SGA.
" Hello,

I found the note 437924.1 and
the only source in the documentation, which point to the ASM sga sizing:
-
For disk groups using external redundancy, every 100 GB of space needs 1 MB of extra shared pool plus 2 MB
-
For disk groups using normal redundancy, every 50 GB of space needs 1 MB of extra shared pool plus 4 MB
-
For disk groups using high redundancy, every 33 GB of space needs 1 MB of extra shared pool plus 6 MB
So, for example, for 1T database with Normal redundancy customer have to yield 24-25 MB of ASM SGA.

PRCD-1229 : An attempt to access configuration of database version 12.1 differs from version 12.2
1. First case
The customer had the GI version 12.1 and DB 12.1 before upgrade.
They upgraded the GI to version 12.2.
The only GI was upgraded. Database is still 12.1 (no changes were made to DB).
Old GI HOME: /u01/app/12.1.0.2/grid
New GI HOME: /u01/app/12.2.0.1/grid
DB HOME: /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0.2/dbhome_1
The upgrade finished successfully.
The ASM + CW + DB are up-and-running.
So, customer cannot start or stop the database or to look the database configuration.
Solution:
The documentation says:
"Only use the version of SRVCTL that is provided with Oracle Database 12c ...
The version of SRVCTL must be the same as the version of the object being managed"
This means:
The command issued from DB Home work well:
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
$ ./srvctl status db -d dbm05
2. Second case
After manual upgrade of database TMC from 11.2.0.4 to 12.2.0.1
OLD_OH=/u02/oracle/oracle_base/TMC/11204
NEW_OH=/u02/oracle/oracle_base/TMC/12201
was obtained the error
$ /u02/oracle/oracle_base/TMC/12201/bin/srvctl status db -d tmc_exa1
PRCD-1229 : An attempt to access configuration of database tmc_exa1 was rejected because its version 11.2.0.4.0 differs from the program version 12.2.0.1.0. Instead run the program from /u02/oracle/oracle_base/TMC/12201.
Why ? I'm using the right database binaries!
Let's check:
[oracle@exa1dbadm01:TMC1 ~]$ cd /u02/oracle/oracle_base/TMC/11204
[oracle@exa1dbadm01:TMC1 11204]$ cd bin

Clusterware don't give the point to glue:
[root@exa1dbadm01 ~]# crsctl stat res ora.tmc_exa1.db -p|grep -i vers

SOLUTION: use NEW_OH/srvctl upgrade command !

Solution:
The documentation says:
"Only use the version of SRVCTL that is provided with Oracle Database 12c ...

This means:
- To manage Clusterware entities use commands from Clusterware Home
- To manipulate Database entities use commands from Database Home.

$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
$ ./srvctl status db -d dbm05

Is it possible to use '-' sign (dash/hyphen/minus) in the hostname of Exadata ?
The problem started from error:
CellCLI> list cell
ed04celadm01 online
CellCLI> alter cell name = ed04-celadm01;
^
CELL-01504: Invalid command syntax.
CellCLI> alter cell name = 'ed04-celadm01';
CELL-00012: Name value is not valid. ASCII characters a-zA-Z_0-9 required.
CellCLI> alter cell name="dc1-exa1celadm01";
CELL-00012: Name value is not valid. ASCII characters a-zA-Z_0-9 required.
So, the query is: is this possible to use '-' (dash/hyphen/minus) in the Exadata hostname or not ?
As shown above, Oracle prohibit to use dash in the name.
But, in other side, one our customer (large bank) has corporate standard, which require prefix in hostname: LOCATION-EXADATA#-HOSTNAME, for example: dc1-exa1-celadm01 (dc is datacenter name). And they used its corporate standard for many years and have no problems with hostname. And they bought the Exadata. And we need to run this machine.
The documentation say nothing about allowed characters in Exadata hostnames.
We checked: OEDA allowed the '-' sign in the prefix.
So me decided to install Exadata with dash in the hostname.
And installation was successful !
What the matter, what is the difference ?
The investigation shows that all hostnames have '-' in the name:
But CELL NAME was different !
Look: Oracle internally put the _ instead of -
And all celldisk and griddisk names are of the same style:
FD_00_dc1_exa1_celadm01 normal
RECOC1_CD_00_dc1_exa1_celadm01 active
...
Conclusions:
- It is safe to use '-' in the hostname of the Exadata.
- Divide the HOST name and CELL name (name in cellcli)
- The sign '-' take 1 place. As you should know the Grid Disk Name is limited by 23 chars. Additional chars lead to overallocation (exceeding this limit). So, i recommend - avoid '-' in the host names.

The reason of this error is obvious: i removed shrept.lst file from $OH/network/admin some time ago.
MOS note make advice to copy this file from similar $OH, but i have no similar $OH near me.
The solution was found to extract the shrept.lst file from Database Installation Media file, in my case it is linuxx64_12201_database.zip .
1. Unzip linuxx64_12201_database.zip and go to directory
database/stage/Components/oracle.rdbms.rsf/12.2.0.1.0/1/DataFiles/
Here are 3 files :

2. The jar - is a zip-archive, so we can unzip it and search the shrept.lst in it
[oracle@oel6 DataFiles]$ unzip filegroup1.jar filegroup2.jar filegroup3.jar
[oracle@oel6 DataFiles]$ find . -name shrept*
./plsql/admin/shrept.lst
./shrept.lst
./rdbms/admin/shrept.lst
[oracle@oel6 DataFiles]$ ls -l ./plsql/admin/shrept.lst ./shrept.lst ./rdbms/admin/shrept.lst

-rwxr-x--- 1 oracle oinstall 50099 Jul 19 11:22 ./shrept.lst
The plsql is not our case.
It seems both last 2 files are the same. So make the copy and relink:
$ cp ./shrept.lst $OH/network/admin
$ cd $OH/bin
$ ./relink all
And now relink work well !

Oracle Universal Installer... Checking swap space: 493 MB available, 500 MB required. Failed
After installing the patch i decided to relink all binaries. The relinking procedure is very simple:
$ cd $OH/bin
$ ./relink all
But in my environment i got a unpleasant message:
" Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking swap space: 493 MB available, 500 MB required. Failed <<<<
Some requirement checks failed. You must fulfill these requirements before
continuing with the installation,
Exiting Oracle Universal Installer ... "
Because I'm on the Linux, then the fastest solution is to make additional swap file.
It can be done online:
# free
# df -h
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=100
# chmod 0600 /swapfile
# mkswap /swapfile
# swapon /swapfile
# df -h
# free
And relink say:
"Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking swap space: must be greater than 500 MB. Actual 593 MB Passed
Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer ..."
To revert changes (online):
# swapoff /swapfile
# rm /swapfile
$ cd $OH/bin
$ ./relink all
But in my environment i got a unpleasant message:
" Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking swap space: 493 MB available, 500 MB required. Failed <<<<
Some requirement checks failed. You must fulfill these requirements before
continuing with the installation,
Exiting Oracle Universal Installer ... "
Because I'm on the Linux, then the fastest solution is to make additional swap file.
It can be done online:
# free
# df -h
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=100
# chmod 0600 /swapfile
# mkswap /swapfile
# swapon /swapfile
# df -h
# free
And relink say:
"Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking swap space: must be greater than 500 MB. Actual 593 MB Passed
Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer ..."
To revert changes (online):
# swapoff /swapfile
# rm /swapfile
