Introduction


Who am I? And what are my responsibilities? z

Who am I? I

am a DBA team leader I’m neither a Java fan nor a Java Developer nor a Java Guru My team has spent a lot of time researching and struggling to stabilize the production environments based on OC4J z

Responsibilities To

support production and development environments To ensure production availability To troubleshoot production system To provide all the necessary information to the developers or support organizations to solve a problem


How were we involved? z

z

z

Local Oracle Marketing team has pushed customers to demand the use of OC4J in their tenders’ conditions In 2002 the company management decided to switch the whole Development from Oracle Forms to OC4J/BC4J/JDeveloper technology We had 100

forms developers without any Java experience A few Java fans Oracle 9iAS R2 (9.0.2), later 9.0.3.1 In 2003 the first phase of the first application was deployed


Example of the Applications we are working with

z

Healthcare financial system Enterprise

application 2+ years in the production and still under development Oracle 9iAS 9.0.3.1 OC4J, Oracle 9.2.0.5 DB JSP = 1448 files, CLASS = 3283 files 965 tables, 593 views, 251 types, 220 packages, DB Size 50 GB, REDO 2-8 GB Daily 800 heavy users per day z

10x5 hour availability



Why is it so important? z

OC4J is the present strategic direction for Oracle JDeveloper,

z

Forms, Reports, Discoverer, OEM, etc.

Difficult to troubleshoot Complex

technology Many components Java on Java

Usage considerations or how to avoid troubles


Oracle AS Architecture Considerations z

You may make the configuration complicated, with many components highly dependent on each other


Oracle AS Architecture Considerations BUT: z Keep it as simple as possible z At first you should be sure that the system works properly in a simple configuration z Make components as independent as possible z Don’t use the infrastructure if there is no strong need for it (i.e. Single-Signon, Discoverer, Clustering)

Installation Considerations z z

z z

Use the latest version of Oracle AS depending on your circumstances Use the latest versions of Oracle Forms, Reports, Discoverer, Portal. Install them in the OH separated from your custom development OC4J OH Install the latest patches for OS, JDK, OC4J, JDBC components Install the version of BC4J which was used by the Development. Don’t use the default version of BC4J/ADF/JHeadstart (See. JDeveloper install.html)


Operational Considerations z z

Keep running only the components you need Don’t startup in the production environment: Oracle

Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control OC4J_Demos component “home” component z z z

Don’t deploy your applications to the “home” component Create your own component and use it to deploy and run your applications Use the opmnctl, dcmctl, dmstool utilities to maintain your AS environment


Deployment Considerations z

Get a commitment from the Development to use industry standards for the Application development

Use EAR files to deploy any application changes Use Ant tool (http://ant.apache.org) to make EAR/WAR files In emergency cases use WAR files to deploy small changes to application z z z

Use undeployApplication/deployApplication combination rather than redeployApplication dcmctl command Use dcmctl saveInstance before deploying to backup current configuration Deploy BC4J.EAR to your OC4J component to keep “home” down


Versions Considerations Recommendations a dedicated test environment and verify all the changes there before implementing in production If you have the automatic stresstesting scenarios, run them after each change in the test environment Monitor the impact of changes and if the situation becomes worse rollback them

OS

z

It is important to install the latest patches from an OS vendor (Kernel, Network, etc.) Usually the patches can be rollbacked easily The change of OS main release requires more testing and efforts than patching

JDK

Install the latest versions of JDK within c.c. boundaries Use the JDK from Sun ww.JavaSoft.com To install it replace the OH/jdk directory. These changes can be rollbacked easily The change of c.c. version requires the Development involvement and more testing

How to Determine the Versions

OS: uname -r

$ uname -r 2.4.9-e.38enterprise

JRE: java –version

$ $ORACLE_HOME/jdk/bin/java -version java version "1.3.1_13" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_13-b03) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_13-b03, mixed mode)

OC4J: java -jar oc4j.jar –version

$ $ORACLE_HOME/jdk/bin/java -jar $ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/home/oc4j.jar -version Oracle9iAS (9.0.3.1.0) Containers for J2EE (build 031214.BP1.2075)

JDBC: a program with a call to meta.getDriverVersion (location $OH/jdbc/lib/classes12dms.jar, Notes:73629.1/244074.1)

$ $ORACLE_HOME/jdk/bin/java JDBCVersion Oracle JDBC driver 9.2.0.5.0

BC4J: a program with a call to meta.getDriverVersion (location $BC4J/lib/bc4jct.jar)

Other Considerations z

z z z

z

z

Have at least one senior level developer, who understands used technology well, is capable to make technical decisions and to lead the framework development, maintenance and troubleshooting Synchronize OC4J, BC4J versions with Development Use an Automatic testing tool for the application stresstesting A commitment from Oracle is desirable. If you can manage a connection to the Oracle JDeveloper development team to support your project, it will be an invaluable help during troubleshooting and decision making Have a skilled DBA for environments maintenance, monitoring and troubleshooting. The DBA provides all possible information to the development for application troubleshooting Have a monitoring framework


Before going to life

!!! Stresstest your application !!! (or ask for results)

AJP/HttpConnectionListener, RMIServer (2), JMSServer Accepting clients requests, assigning them to the worker threads The configuration of listened ports is in opmn.xml file z

Set of processes for communicating with ONS

OC4JMonitorThread, Thread(2) These processes make connection to the OPMN immediately after the startup of OC4J They send event messages to the OPMN to be broadcasted to subscribers


Processes (threads) within OC4J z

TaskManager

Responsible for a periodic tasks executing (housekeeping)

server.http.SessionTimeoutTask (drops expired session) server.ApplicationServerTask (clear expired threads) sql.DriverManagerXADataSource …

You can set an executing frequency in server.xml file taskmanager-granularity=1000 (default 1 sec)

Use the dmstool to monitor the statistics of the process dmstool -table oc4j_task

z

ApplicationServerThreads (Global Thread Pool)

Execute users requests, run an application code, communicate with the Apache processes and the database Initial count of the processes can be set in server.xml file global-thread-pool min=“200" max="200" queue="20“

STATES of the Threads z

z

z

Waiting on monitor

In most of cases it is an idle state of the thread. The thread is waiting for a task to execute or voluntary sleeps

All the available ApplicationServerThreads are in this state

Runnable

The thread is executing application code or reading from the socket

All listeners must be in this state

Waiting for monitor entry

Waiting to lock an object (other thread is holding the lock). This happens if two or more threads are trying to execute synchronized java code None of threads must be in this state for a long time If the system thread stays in this state for a long time you are in trouble If many threads are in this state you have the situation of serialization


Threads Examples 1. OC4JMonitorThread is waiting for a work. Usual state for most of the threads "OC4JMonitorThread" daemon prio=1 tid=0x679a3518 nid=0x573 waiting on monitor [0xa53ff000..0xa53ff89c] at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) at oracle.ons.NotificationQueue.internalDequeue(NotificationQueue.java:251) at oracle.ons.NotificationQueue.dequeue(NotificationQueue.java:224) at oracle.ons.Subscriber.receive(Subscriber.java:136) at com.evermind.server.OC4JMonitorThread.run(OC4JMonitorThread.java:419) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:479)

OC4J


Useful Java Runtime Parameter z

It is possible to determine the blocking thread easily

"ApplicationServerThread-55" prio=1 tid=0x69d512b8 nid=0xda4 runnable [0xb77fe000..0xb77ff89c] at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead(Native Method) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:85) at oracle.net.ns.Packet.receive(Unknown Source) ... at oracle.jbo.server.QueryCollection.executeQuery(QueryCollection.java:549) at oracle.jbo.server.ViewObjectImpl.executeQueryForCollection(ViewObjectImpl.java:2600) - locked <460e0338> (a oracle.jbo.JboSyncLock) at lv.vovaa.panda.common.pbo.PboViewObjectImpl.pboExecuteQueryForCollection(PboViewObject.java:324) at lv.vovaa.panda.common.pbo.PboViewObjectImpl.executeQueryForCollection(PboViewObjectImp.java:309) at oracle.jbo.server.ViewRowSetImpl.execute(ViewRowSetImpl.java:521) ...

z

Then we can locate the source code for troubleshooting purposes

ViewObjectImpl.java

protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object obj, Object aobj[], int i) { synchronized(getSyncLock()) { int j = 0; if(InstrumentedEvent.isActive) j = InstrumentedEvent.startEvent(EventGroup.EXECUTE_QUERY, "ViewObject executeQueryForCollection " + getName()); ((QueryCollection)obj).executeQuery(aobj, i); if(InstrumentedEvent.isActive) InstrumentedEvent.endEvent(j); } }

Troubleshooting information gathering (example)



Performance tuning


Our Findings (Java Workers) z

Preset java workers threads for OC4J process

OH/j2ee/<comp_name>/config/server.xml <global-thread-pool min="100" max="300" queue="30" keepAlive="-1" cx-min="100" cx-max="300" cx-queue="30" cx-keepAlive="-1" debug="true"/>

Set min to high value. It allows OC4J not to create the additional threads on the fly

You don’t have to take care on max, keepAlive and queue parameters then OC4J doesn’t need to manage queue

debug="true" – Allows to see statistics in the OC4J process standard output file

It is useful as troubleshooting information as well. Record appears in the output file at the end of each Task manager cycle.

<PANDA.default_island.1> 1107390315893:ThrP[100] ThrQ[0] 1107390315893:CxP[100] CxQ[0] - WebC[0] RmiC[0] 1107390316903:ThrP[100] ThrQ[0] 1107390316903:CxP[100] CxQ[0] - WebC[0] RmiC[0] ...


Our Findings (OC4J Processes) z

Use many OC4J processes without enabled state replication

OH/opmn/conf/opmn.xml <oc4j maxRetry="3" instanceName="PANDA" gid="PANDA" numProcs="1"> <config-file path="/u01/app/oracle/product/J2EE01/j2ee/PANDA/config/server.xml"/> <java-option value="-server -Xms512M -Xmx512M"/> <oc4j-option value="-properties "/> <port ajp="3001-3100" jms="3201-3300" rmi="3101-3200"/> <island id="default_island" numProcs="3"/> </oc4j>

z z z z z

Initially it was recommended by Oracle support while TAR resolution OC4J container is more stable on a lower users load mod_oc4j distributes requests through 3 OC4J identical containers 1/3 of users load is handled by each OC4J process Do not use state replication

z

It can add significant load on CPU It complicates configuration It can lead to opposite effect

Be careful

You have to test this configuration for your application. It can lead to unpredictable DB connection behavior Memory/threads configuration is for each process of the OC4J instance


Our Findings (Memory) OH/opmn/conf/opmn.xml <oc4j … <java-option value="-server -Xms512M -Xmx512M"/> </oc4j> z Set max=min

z

JVM doesn’t need to manage memory allocation dynamically You have reserved memory on the server

Java Garbage collector

There is a lot of information around

z

http://developers.sun.com/techtopics/mobility/midp/articles/garbagecollection2/ http://www.cons.org/cmucl/doc/gc-tuning.html

-verbose:gc

Java Profilers

Add significant overhead to be used in production environments Extremely useful in test/dev environments for troubleshooting


Our Findings (Memory) z

Monitor memory usage in production

grep log files for “out of memory” error use OS utilities use dmstool

$ dmstool -table JVM | grep 3001 | grep Memory /ap1.voava.lv/OC4J:3001:7003/JVM/freeMemory.value /ap1.voava.lv/OC4J:3001:7003/JVM/freeMemory.minValue /ap1.voava.lv/OC4J:3001:7003/JVM/freeMemory.maxValue /ap1.voava.lv/OC4J:3001:7003/JVM/totalMemory.value /ap1.voava.lv/OC4J:3001:7003/JVM/totalMemory.minValue /ap1.voava.lv/OC4J:3001:7003/JVM/totalMemory.maxValue ap1.voava.lv*J2EE01-/u01/app/oracle/product $

495796 kbytes 495796.0 kbytes 522468.0 kbytes 524032 kbytes 524032.0 kbytes 524032.0 kbytes


Our Findings (Stresstesting) z z

The best way to tune performance is a stresstesting According to our experience

After Development had performed the performance testing, a lot of problems were solved An automatic testing tool has been used (Rational Robot) Different modules were tested Different load profiles were tested Testing was repeated several times until acceptable results were achieved
