了解Database Replay Capture内部原理
Database Replay是11g中很酷的特性,对于workload capture的内部工作原理大家理解的不多,这里就介绍一下。
对于Workload Capture需要考虑的因素:
负载捕获文件消耗定量的磁盘空间,这些捕获文件是2进程文件,无法直接阅读,有测试表明在大并发量的OLTP环境中可以达到capture 10分钟占用1G磁盘空间
数据库重启:
可能是保证捕获所有事务的可靠重放的唯一路径
使用startup restrict启动实例,避免不完整的事务捕获
启动capture会取消restrict模式
基于负载类型重启不是必要的
为重放目的恢复数据库的多种方法:
基于scn或时间的物理恢复
逻辑恢复应用数据
闪回或者快照数据
Capture可以指定过滤器作为捕获workload子集的方法
需要的权限包括SYSDBA、SYSOPER和合适的OS权限
性能消耗:
在TPCC测试中capture的性能损耗为4.5%
对于每个session会多消耗64KB的内存
必要的Workload Capture耗费文件系统磁盘空间
这里需要注意的有2点, 对于RAC集群存在workload capture file的目录必须位于共享文件系统上,否则start_capture时会报错。
对于每个session会多消耗64KB的内存,这是由于本质上写出负载信息到workload capture file的同样是Server Process服务进程本身,但是这种写出并非在parse解析或execution执行阶段,Server Process将其LOGON、LOGOFF、SQL执行等信息记录存放在PGA中,主要是WCR Capture PG、WCR Capture PGA中,当PGA中的工作负载历史记录达到一定数目时,Server Process本身负责写出这些数据到WCR文件中,在写出这些WCR文件时Server Process进入’WCR: capture file IO write’等待事件。
与WCR相关的等待事件另有:

我们通过如下演示具体说明Database Replay Capture的内部原理
1. 首先打开capture dbms_workload_capture.start_capture
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY dbcapture AS '/home/oracle/dbcapture';
execute dbms_workload_capture.start_capture('CAPTURE','DBCAPTURE',default_action=>'INCLUDE');

可以得出一个结论,一个Server Process对应一个WCR REC文件,当Server Process LOGON时生成该文件
3.执行少量SQL语句:

若SERVER PROCESS LOGOFF 则会有如下信息
C`E_ B
k^2C
以上说明Server Process并不胡在parse或execution阶段写WCR文件,而是将这些数据存放在PGA中,达到一定大小阀值后才写出,所以其性能影响小,但是如果在WCR数据写出前就意外终止则,这些数据将丢失。
4. 窥视进程信息

Statement processed.
SQL> oradebug tracefile_name
/u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/crmv/CRMV/trace/CRMV_ora_14293.trc
从processstate 文件中可以发现历史等待信息包括 WCR: capture file IO write,这是Server process在写WCR 文件

5.窥视PGA内存信息

sz= 65600=》 64k 这可能就是文档描述的64k内存,但是实际可以看到使用总量超过了64k
WCR是否可能引起内存泄露呢?:)!
6.隐藏参数
控制WCR CAPTURE的参数至少有以下2个
SQL> SELECT x.ksppinm NAME, y.ksppstvl VALUE, x.ksppdesc describ
2 FROM SYS.x$ksppi x, SYS.x$ksppcv y
3 WHERE x.inst_id = USERENV ('Instance')
4 AND y.inst_id = USERENV ('Instance')
5 AND x.indx = y.indx
6 AND x.ksppinm in ('_capture_buffer_size','_wcr_control');
NAME VALUE DESCRIB
-------------------- -------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------
_wcr_control 0 Oracle internal test WCR parameter used ONLY for testing!
_capture_buffer_size 65536 To set the size of the PGA I/O recording buffers
其中_capture_buffer_size 控制PGA中WCR BUFFER的SIZE,默认为64k
_wcr_control 控制WCR的内部行为,具体尚不清晰
7.结束capture
SQL> execute dbms_workload_capture.finish_capture;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
DBMS_WORKLOAD_CAPTURE.START_CAPTURE(): Starting database capture at 12/08/2012 07:24:54
DBMS_WORKLOAD_CAPTURE.FINISH_CAPTURE(): Stopped database capture (not all sessions could flush their capture buffers) at 12/08/2012 10:29:49
综上所述,我们得出结论:
1. 负责写WCR WORKLOAD CAPTURE文件的不是什么后台进程,而是Server Process服务进程(前台进程)
2. 每一个server process对应一个WCR文件
3. Server Proess会写出LOGON、LOGOFF、SQL执行以及错误信息到WCR文件中
4. Server Process的写不是立即模式Immediate mode,而是将数据存放在PGA的(WCR Capture) subheap中,当数据达到一定大小或一定时间(timeout才写出一次)
5. 再次强调, Server Process的写不是立即模式Immediate mode,即capture不发生在parse或者execution阶段(很多人认为capture发生在parse时这种说法可以证明为不正确,parse并不受到capture的影响),而仅仅是将LOGON、SQL历史(不包括执行计划)放在PGA的WCR Capture内存子堆中,条件触发才写出,所以其性能损耗小,按照tpcc的测试结论为4.5%
6. 隐藏参数_capture_buffer_size 控制PGA中WCR BUFFER的SIZE,默认为64k
7. WCR Capture文件虽然是binrary 2进制文件,但并未加密,所以第三方软件理论上也可以读取该WCR capture file
8. WCR: capture file IO write等待事件是Server Process在写WCR文件
9. 执行dbms_workload_capture.finish_capture;会让现有Server Process FLUSH WCR buffer,但是就ALERT.LOG的自解释信息看”Stopped database capture (not all sessions could flush their capture buffers)”,这种flush不是必然能回收内存的
