Re: shared server or dedicated server -- How to find ?

2003-12-02 Thread Tanel Poder
I would use:
select server, count(*) from v$session group by server;

That way you'll see how many sessions are using shared servers  how many
are forced to be dedicated. (you can have dedicated connections in MTS as
well).

Otherwise, you can check views v$mts, v$dispatcher, v$shared_server for
statistics.

Tanel ,

v$mts, v$dispatcher, v$shared_server all have a record each.

but:
SQL select server, count(*) from v$session group by server;
this query says that all conn are dedicated.
but the tnsnames.ora in the client (webserver) doesn't enforce for a dedicated conn.

...and LSNCRSTL STATUS doesn't show anything reg. dispatcher.

why it is so ? any thoughts  ?!!

Re: shared server or dedicated server -- How to find ?

2003-12-02 Thread Tanel Poder
Use "lsnrctl services" to see which services have been registered with your
listener.
Your dispatcher hasn't probably registered it's services with listener.
Try "alter system register".
If you still don't see any "shared" services (handler=dispatcher) under
lsnrctl services, then your dispatchers register with wrong listener (or
don't register at all).
Check values of local_listener, remote_listener, mts_listener_address and
see if they match your listener's address. If the parameters are default
then dispatchers try to register them with listener on localhost:1521

If you get your services registered, but all new connections still remain
DEDICATED, then check whether you don't have (SERVER=EDICATED) in your
tnsnames.ora entries. Note that background processes servers in v$session
are always dedicated.

Re: shared server or dedicated server -- How to find ?

2003-12-02 Thread Tanel Poder
Don't worry about dispacther's address, they ought to be running on
different ports than listener anyway.
Don't use lsnrctl status for checkin services, lsnrctl services is for that.

Yes, in Oracle you can directly connect to your dispatcher as well if you
want to (some people have resolved firewall port issues that way, by setting
dispacther to run on specific port).
But generally you should use listener to connect. Listener acts just like a
middle-man when estabilishing connection. When a new connection is made to
listener and service "orcl" is requested for example, then listener checks
whether it has a service "orcl" configured in it's confifguration
(listener.ora) or has anyone registered this kind of service with it. If it
finds the service, it also knows on which ports are the dispatchers or with
which SID should it spawn a new server process.

Let me note that I used listener status to figure out services
because the output of stat is more compact and easier to read. 
Of course, one should always use services to look see how services
are configured.

Prem, MTS configuration requires cooperation of two peaces
of software: RDBMS and listener. It's not enough to check
the database configuration, you should also check listener.ora

Re: shared server or dedicated server -- How to find ?

2003-12-01 Thread Mladen Gogala
Your database is not running on either share or dedicated session mode. Your 
sessions are connecting to either a dedicated server or a shared server. You can 
have a mix as well. Some sessions may be connecting to dedicated servers while
others may be utilizing shared servers. It doesn't sound very logical, but if you
want to find out about your sessions, you should go and consult V$SESSION.
There is, believe or not, a column called SERVER Here is an example of a query
that should tell you everything:
SQL  select username,server,module from v$session
  2  where type='USER';
 
USERNAME SERVERMODULE
 - ---
OPS$MGOGALA  SHAREDSQL*Plus
SYSTEM   DEDICATED TOra
SCOTTSHAREDSQL*Plus
SYSTEM   DEDICATED TOra
SCOTTDEDICATED SQL*Plus

So, I have a user called OPS$MGOGALA (I know, I'm a lazy bum, but I hate typing. I 
really do) logged 
in using shared server connection from SQL*Plus, user SYSTEM logged in using  
dedicated server 
connection using tora (2 connections, schema browser and sessions monitor) , then  
SCOTT logged in 
using shared server connection and another SCOTT using a dedicated server connection. 
Such a mix is 
typical. For some things I used shared servers, for others I utilize dedicated ones.  
V$SESSION tells me
 what is what.  Database is said to be in the shared server mode as soon as you have 
dispatchers and 
shared servers configured and are able to connect in the shared server mode. Listener 
should look something 
like this:

SQL $ lsnrctl stat

Here are 3 dispatchers:

2) Protocol=IPC key=$ORACLE_SID
3) EXTPROC, for procedural extensions. 

XDM was commented out. This database is in the MTS mode, but I can still connect using 
dedicated server 
if I want to. Did I tell you that I hate typing? Well, I'm on strike until tomorrow 
morning.
