Monitoring Storage Systems for Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c Anand Ranganathan Product Manager, NetApp

Agenda Database Storage Management Challenges Solution Overview Metrics Reports Leveraging other OEM Features Demo Resources Q & A

Database Storage Management Challenges How do I pinpoint storage related problems in a timely manner How can I proactively respond to problems How do I navigate from a database file to a NetApp volume How can I reduce my dependency on the storage admin Is there a single tool that addresses all these challenges

NetApp Storage System Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c

Overview Consolidates information about Oracle on NetApp environments into the OEM Cloud Control Console providing one interface to monitor databases and storage systems Automates collecting a comprehensive set of availability, performance and usage metrics with pre-defined thresholds Enables administrators to analyze performance through various historical views (Last 24 Hours/ Last 7 Days/ Last 31 Days) and facilitates trend analysis and reporting Provides blackout periods to disable alerting during scheduled maintenance operations, such as hardware upgrades Built-in reports that map database components like tablespaces, datafiles to storage components like aggregates, volumes Compares configurations of multiple storage systems to identify differences

Metrics Two types of metrics Monitoring Metrics Configuration Metrics Data that changes frequently Examples: CPU usage, system load Configuration Metrics Data that changes occasionally Examples: Data ONTAP version, licenses

Monitoring Metrics Realize Immediate Value through Out-of-Box Availability and Performance Monitoring Thresholds Pre-defined thresholds that can be customized Alerts Get alerted to problems and respond proactively Blackout Periods Prevent unnecessary alerts during scheduled downtimes Historical Views Report on data from last 24hrs, 7/31 days for trend analysis

Configuration Metrics Compare storage systems to ensure they are deployed as per standards

Configuration Metrics NetApp storage controller details including model, firmware and Data ONTAP versions Products/options licensed on the NetApp storage system Disk summary for the NetApp storage system

Database to Storage Mapping Reports Maps database host, SID, tablespaces, database files, file sizes, mount points to corresponding NetApp storage systems, aggregates, volumes, volume sizes, volume used and available sizes

Leveraging Other OEM Features Monitoring Templates Simplify the task of standardizing monitoring settings by creating a template based on optimal settings once and applying them to any number of NetApp storage systems Corrective Actions Ensure that routine responses to alerts are automatically executed, thereby saving administrators time and ensuring problems are dealt with before they noticeably impact users
