Trucluster slow performance
I have 2xES45 (4xCPU/One With 16Gb RAM and the other with 4Gb)running Trulcuster 5.1B with PK3 and running Oracle 8.1.7 and some other applications developped localy .
I suspect problem in kernel parameters , can someone tell me how can i find ideal parameters for my plateform ? Or can someone tel me what can i do ?
I see that the PIDs are very high number ! Is this the main cause of the problem .

Re: Trucluster slow performance

NO, Blame it on the users. It's always the users. If they were not using the system, then it would not be slow. Correct?
YES it is the problem. Not the PIDs themselfs but because the stamement suggests that there is insufficient understanding on about the workings of a Unix box.
MAYBE actually... If the systems are creating too many processes too rapidly.
Seriously now, this is way to big a problem with way to little detail to solve here in this forum.
nd just in case you wonder, a large PID has ZERO, NONE, NADA system performance impact.
They coudl simply mean that the system has been up for a long time, or they could be a tell tale sign of excessive activity which may or might not be avoidable.
Please consider getting serious contrating / consulting help (me! :^)
Focus on the ORACLE side of things.
Once the OS is set up halfway reasonable, one generaly can only improve performance by only a few procent, where are Oracle tuning my readily impact the performance by 100%.
Check out the following 'best practices' document:
http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA0-9949ENW.pdf
Collect information (with collect!)
- Are both systems doing similar things?
- Both slow?
- Typical usage pictures (peak, average):
---- CPU Load
---- MEMory load
---- IO Load
---- NETwork load
- What are top resource users? Oracle? FTP? NFS?
Please provide a better problem description if you want better help!

Re: Trucluster slow performance
Has this application beeen running for a while, or is is new?
Did it used to run with reasonable performance?
What changed?
Did the go slow gradually, or does it seem to have fallen from a cliff
That better you define slow, the easier it will be to improve things

Re: Trucluster slow performance
I can see with the command "ps alxww" extracted from the output of "syschec -perf" that the value of VSZ is about 3.2GB for oracle processes (and 20Gb for the kernel idle)
Please see attachment .

Re: Trucluster slow performance
Looks like a 4GB SGA, which is find for the 16GB config, but too much for 4GB config.
But why not ask Oracle how it is doing (SQL> SHOW SGA, statspack (or at least utlbstat, utlestat).
Still, no clue about active/average usage.
I like the 'monitor' tool. But some vmstat and iostat, or sar or collect might help some. But like I said, there is so much to look at before we would even know that where to look that you may be better of getting some dedicated help. From the data provided so far it seems you team does not even know where to start at this point. A good education opportunity!
Regards,
Hein.
