Disaster Recovery Solution for Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g on Linux

INTRODUCTION

This technical report describes the procedure to deploy Oracle Fusion Middleware (OFM) 11g on Linux using NetApp SnapMirror , Snapshot, FlexVol , and FlexClone technology. It also describes the configuration and procedure to create a disaster recovery (DR) solution for Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g using a simple, fast, accurate, and cost-effective method. NetApp disaster recovery (DR) solutions are simple to deploy and recover, and reduce downtime. They are flexible enough to address a broad range of recovery point objectives ranging from zero to one hour to one day. NetApp DR solutions can replicate over long distances, providing protection from both site and regional disasters. Customers have the flexibility to make a tradeoff between cost and data loss exposure. For all prerequisites and configurations required to deploy this solution, see TR-3672: Oracle Fusion Middleware DR Solution Using NetApp Storage. This report only covers the OFM 11g specific configuration steps.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

The OFM Disaster Recovery solution relies on NetApp replication technology to replicate OFMs application and Web tier file system artifacts. At each site these artifacts are on a shared storage system configured for storage replication. For more information on the design considerations, see the OFM Disaster Recovery Guide: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/doc.1111/e15250/design_consid.htm#sthref426 .

2.1

PROTOCOL CONFIGURATION

This DR solution uses the NFS protocol. The following is an example of an NFS mount option configuration (sample fstab entry): mount nasfiler:/vol/vol1/fmw11shared ORACLE_BASE/wls -t nfs -o rw,bg,hard,nointr,tcp,vers=3,timeo=300,rsize=32768,wsize=32768

FILE SYSTEM LAYOUT

This section describes the file system layout for the OFM 11g components. For example, for this validation, the product suites used are the Oracle SOA and the Oracle Identity Management Product suite. The validation is done using the Oracle Enterprise Deployment Guide Topologies. Similarly, this recommended structure can be used for other components.

4.1

DIRECTORY STRUCTURE FOR SOA COMPONENT

Figure 1 depicts the recommended directory structure for the OFM 11g SOA component.

Figure 1) Directory structure for SOA.

In Figure 1, domain_name is a directory with a name that is deployment dependent. Everything in this directory applies to the "application tier" of the EDG. The Weblogic domain is also present under this directory. Similarly, instance_name is a deployment-dependent directory, and everything in this directory applies to the "Web tier" of the EDG. The Oracle instance resides under this directory. In this case, the Oracle instance includes the Oracle HTTP server.

DIRECTORY STRUCTURE FOR IDM COMPONENT

Figure 3 depicts the directory structure used for the IDM Suite used in the DR validation.

Figure 3) Directory structure for IDM.

In Figure 3, domain_name and applications are directories under user_projects. The domain_name has a name that is deployment dependent. Everything in this directory applies to the "application tier" of the IDM EDG. The Weblogic domain is present in this directory. Similarly, instance_name is a deployment-dependent directory, and everything under it applies to the "Web tier" and the "data tier" of the IDM EDG. The Oracle Instance resides under this directory. It includes the Oracle HTTP server in the Web tier and the Oracle Internet Directory and Oracle Virtual Directory in the data tier.

CONSISTENCY GROUPS

Consistency Group is a storage-level view of applications data stored in multiple volumes or controllers. Consistency groups are typically used in database applications where logs and database are part of the same consistency group. In this case, the database cannot get ahead of the logs as the writes are all ordered. Consistency groups are collections of objects that allow an administrator to take consistent point in time copies of, for example, volumes today and LUNs, files, block ranges in the future. There are two levels of consistency: Application Consistency Consistent copies are created after applications are gracefully shut down, quiesced, or put in hot backup mode Provides application-defined benefits such as media recovery Creates point-in-time copy of storage that is usable with crash recovery applications Creates crash consistent copies without coordinating with applications. However, write ordering is maintained for dependent writes in Snapshot copies across volumes.

Crash Consistency

Consistency Group can be enabled by running the following APIs from any servers where NetApp volumes are mounted: cg-start Fences all writes for a volume per controller Freezes volume contents during write fencing to prevents writes Returns fencing success or failure If fencing is successful, it continues with Snapshot copy creation based on frozen contents

cg-commit Unfences volumes after start of WAFL Consistency Point (CP) to create a Snapshot copy Returns success after creating a Snapshot copy Snapshot copies created using the cg-start and cg-commit commands are replicated the same way as other Snapshot copies. No special handling exists for CG Snapshot copies. Volume SnapMirror maintains a mirror of all Snapshot copies at the destination

Consistency Group (CG) is composed of three partsPart 1 is the main library of the API, part 2 is the Perl script that calls the API libraries, and part 3 is the configuration file that lists the volumes and storage arrays in which these volumes reside. It is important to note that part 2 and part 3 should be named to something meaningful and their names should correlate to each other. Example: Group 1 Volumes VOLADMIN, VOLSOA1, VOLSOA2 Group 2 Volumes VOLDATA The following example shows the creation of four files, that istwo create<>.pl and two config files. Group 1 would consist of Cg_create_DOMAINGROUP.pl and DOMAINGROUP.cfg Group 2 would consist of Cg_create_DATAGROUP.pl and DATAGROUP.cfg There is only one item to modify within Cg_create_<>.pl. If there are multiple files, create multiple consistency groups.

11

Disaster Recovery Solution for Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g on Linux

1.

To create files, copy the original Cg_create_<>.pl: For example: cp Cg_create_<>.pl Cg_create_DOMAINGROUP.pl Modify Cg_create_DOMAINGROUP.pl as follows: i. Using VI open Cg_create_DOMAINGROUP.pl ii. Edit line #8 to change: open("CFG","cg.cfg" || die "Can't open config file: $!"); to open("CFG"," DATAGROUP.cfg " || die "Can't open config file: $!");

2.

3.

Change cg.cfg to the configuration file name created: cp cf.cfg DOMAINGROUP.cfg vi DOMAINGROUP.cfg

4.

Enter the storage and volume information:

Config file ... FilerName atlnetapp5 User orabk Password orabk Timeout relaxed Volumes VOLADMIN, VOLSOA1, VOLSOA2

5.

If multiple storage arrays are used, add a second line:

Config file ... FilerName atlnetapp5 atlnetapp6 User orabk orabk Password orabk orabk Timeout relaxed relaxed Volumes VOLADMIN, VOLSOA1 VOLSOA2

6.

To execute from GridControl, cron or any desired scheduler, use the following syntax : perl Cg_create<>.pl <Snapshot copy_name> [oracle@atl46004][asmdb4][~/cg]$ perl Cg_create_DOMAINGROUP.pl cgsnap_`date +%m%d%y%H%M` Input XML: <cg-start> <snapshot>snapname</snapshot> <timeout>relaxed</timeout> <volumes> <volume-name>VOLADMIN</volume-name> <volume-name>VOLSOA1</volume-name> <volume-name>VOLSOA2</volume-name> </volumes> </cg-start> Output XML1: <results status="passed"> <cg-id>228</cg-id> </results> Commit XML2: <results status="passed"></results>

When you execute Cg_create_DOMAINGROUP.pl it parses the DOMAINGROUP.cfg configuration file and passes the information to NetApp APIs to create a single name Snapshot copy that spans multiple volumes/controllers.

PLANNED AND UNPLANNED DOWNTIME

PERFORMING A PLANNED SWITCHOVER

When you plan to take down the production site (for example, to perform maintenance) and make the current standby site the new production site, you must perform a switchover operation so that the standby site takes over the production role. Follow these steps to perform a switchover operation: 1. Shut down any processes that are still running on the production site. This includes the database instances in the data tier, Oracle Fusion Middleware instances, and any other related processes in the application tier and Web tier. Stop the replication (SnapMirror relationship) between the production site NetApp storage system and the standby site. Use Oracle Data Guard to switch over the database(s). On the standby site hosts, manually start all processes. This includes the database instances in the data tier, Oracle Fusion Middleware instances and any other processes in the application and Web tier. Make sure that all user requests are routed to the standby site by performing a global DNS push or something similar, such as updating the global load balancer. Use a browser client to perform postswitchover application testing to confirm that requests are being resolved and redirected to the standby site. At this point, the former standby site is the new production site, and the former production site is the new standby site. 7. Reestablish the replication between the two sites, but configure the replication so that the Snapshot copies go in the opposite direction (from the current production site to the current standby site). Refer to the documentation for your shared storage to learn how to configure the replication so that Snapshot copies are transferred in the opposite direction.

2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

After these steps have been performed, the former standby site is the new production site and the former production site is the new standby. At this point, you can perform maintenance (if any) at the new standby site.

6.2

PERFORMING A SWITCHBACK

After a switchover operation has been performed, a switchback operation can be performed to revert the current production site and the current standby site to the roles they had prior to the switchover operation. Follow these steps to perform a switchback operation: 1. Shut down any processes running on the current production site. This includes the database instances in the data tier, Oracle Fusion Middleware instances, and any other processes in the application and Web tier. Stop the replication (SnapMirror relationship) between the production site NetApp storage system and the standby site.

2.

14

Disaster Recovery Solution for Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g on Linux

3. 4.

Use Oracle Data Guard to switch back the databases. On the new production site hosts, manually start all processes. This includes the database instances in the data tier, Oracle Fusion Middleware instances, and any other processes in the application tier and Web tier. Make sure that all user requests are routed to the new production site by performing a global DNS push or something similar, such as updating the global load balancer. Use a browser client to perform postswitchback testing to confirm that requests are being resolved and redirected to the new production site. At this point, the former standby site is the new production site and the former production site is the new standby site. Reestablish the replication between the two sites, but configure the replication so that the Snapshot copies go in the opposite direction (from the new production site to the new standby site). Refer to the documentation for your shared storage to learn how to configure the replication so that Snapshot copies are transferred in the opposite direction.

5. 6. 7. 8.

6.3

PERFORMING AN UNPLANNED FAILOVER

When the production site becomes unavailable unexpectedly, you must perform a failover operation so that the standby site takes over the production role. Follow these steps to perform a failover operation: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Stop the replication (SnapMirror relationship) between the production site NetApp storage system and the standby site. From the standby site, use Oracle Data Guard to fail over the databases. On the standby site hosts, manually start all processes. This includes the database instances in the data tier, Oracle Fusion Middleware instances, and any other processes in the application and Web tier. Make sure that all user requests are routed to the standby site by performing a global DNS push or something similar, such as updating the global load balancer. Use a browser client to perform postfailover testing to confirm that requests are being resolved and redirected to the production site. At this point, the standby site is the new production site. You can examine the issues that caused the former production site to become unavailable. To use the original production site as the current standby site, you must reestablish the replication between the two sites, but configure the replication so that the Snapshot copies go in the opposite direction (from the current production site to the current standby site). Refer to the documentation for your shared storage system to learn how to configure the replication so that Snapshot copies are transferred in the opposite direction.

CONCLUSION

NetApp SnapMirror simplifies the Oracle Fusion Middleware replication process; the use of storage-level mirroring allows the copies to be created quickly, efficiently, and independently of the server. This maximizes the resources on the source server available for production/online use. The mirroring can also be started in advance so that only the last incremental changes need to be transferred during cloning, thus shortening the whole process. This DR solution provides an optimal process for Oracle Fusion Middleware replication. This in turn enables flexibility in setting the frequency of cloning to satisfy the cloning requirements of the enterprise, be it for development, testing, reporting, or whatever the case may be. SnapMirror is easy to set up, configure, maintain and, most important, is cost-effective as a mirroring solution. Using NetApp storage systems and SnapMirror in conjunction with Oracle DataGuard greatly simplifies and speeds up the Oracle Fusion Middleware replication process. This provides users with the maximum benefit out of their investment in the overall system.
